Is my Spica bricked ??? pls help me out :(

Hi community, this is the first time i start a thread here over XDA Dev coz i'm really in trouble, i tried to change bootlogo for my spica through recovery (rooted and using spicagendmod beta 2) but the phone turned off, since then, never turn on, if i plug the usb charger in, it will charge till 100% but nothing more! lost even recovery/download modes. when i try to turn it normally it's just like "dead". i think i bricked it right ???? here in algeria where i live, there's no samsung representation.... i'm lost.. dunno what to do..... i fuc*ked up things this time i guess ...!!!

thank's dude for your reply but... i can't even go on download mode.... the phone is just chargin while off or "dead" when i try to turn it on, whatever is on recovery, download or just a normal boot, everything remains off and the screen black, the phone is nolonger detectable by my laptop, tried in XP, vista and Win7! ithink this time... it's GAME OVER!

I seem to remember the bootlogo being the only way of bricking the Spica ... :-(
Maybe try over at samdroid.net? That's where the Spica community hangs out, mostly.

If you flashed too big bootlogo (biggest tested was 182 kB) there is no way to recover the phone by yourself yet- we are waiting to test a possible solution but samdroid member with the same problem is offline for some time (work related)

thank's mate, YES i flashed a big bootlogo(192ko) and what you said is the same as what i read on a forum, i forget where exactly. hope this member will be online soon cheers

One way. In the service center.

My Gio has the same problem now.
It can only go into download/dload/ramdump mode and can't startup normally nor recovery.
I tried to use odin with "pda format" checked but the odin always crash.
I tried many versions of odin4.xx, all crashed.
Could anyone tell me which version will run without crash?
Thanks,
William

S5000-F recovery request (desperate's cry)

Dear XDA members.
Things started going wrong along with failed rooting procedure. This made the device to hang on manufacturer's logo (recovery availiable).
Then I've tried to follow "how-to-flashing-lenovo-s5000-via-spft" @ zonexfirmware.blogspot.com; describing the use of SPFT to flash rom from PC. Unfortunately "PMT changed for the ROM" error made me to "format whole flash except Bootloader". This allowed to flash rom in "Download Mode" via SPFT.
Now the rom still does not boot, and additionally when trying to enter recovery mode I see only "factory mode".
So, standing on the edge I'm hesitating. Probably Firmware upgrade mode or Format All + Download would solve the problem. But things may go also the other way (much like considering my latest results).
At this point I'm even not sure whether the rom linked in the guide suits my device.
Please kindly advise.

Format All + Download almost bricked the tablet.
Has anyone an idea what is wrong with this procedure? The device is not booting and have the factory mode instead recovery mode stikk,

what version of Android were you on? KitKat or Lollipop?
if you were on Lollipop download this if on KitKat then this and use the below instructions
1. download and extract someplace on your pc from the link provided
2. uninstall (if installed) your existing Phone Flash Tool and from the drivers folder install both files (Intel Phone Flash Tool and Android Driver accepting defaults) reboot pc when finished
3. place your tab in DNX mode (from power off press and hold both volume keys then press pwr to start, in a few you screen will show "Fastboot starting..." message and hang on that. you must get that message on your tab screen, restart from power off until you have it)
4. start the installed Phone Flash Tool and load flash.xml from the extracted YT2-... folder then Start Flashing, it will reboot when done

KitKat, I will try and let You know, thanks a lot.

see above post, use the kitkat link. after you flash remember to set your region code before taking any ota's (on the first Android boot go to Contacts and in the search contacts box input ####59930# and if it shows a two letter country code then you're good to go, if it shows 'unknown' then you need to set a country code, input in the same box ####6020# and chose a country, yours or a close one, tablet will reboot)

-i can only access to the recovery mode(stock) and the download mode
Please help :<

Hey mate ! Keep calm nothing's serious. I have been already there and all what I did is reflashing a new ROM using "OST LA" !
So basically you have to go through the same steps of rooting it but of course without applying the ADB commands.
- Open OST LA
- Put your phone in download mode
- Browse the ROM you have already downloaded
- Click "Edit information" and wait until the error appears.
- Skip the error and click "Next" then install the ROM.
- Wait until the process is done.
Note : You need to get your computer connected to INTERNET while flashing it because there is some sort of information which need to get downloaded by the OST LA tool.
** Next time do not flash a security patch if your Nokia 5 is rooted

help whit my samsung J5 please

Hi guys, I've been looking on the forums and i didn't find a way to solve my problem, my Samsung J5 J500m has the "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the emergency recovery function in the smart switch PC software" screen. I've tried both smart switch and Samsung kies and it hasn't worked, the thing is that i don't have the "depuration usb" on, nor the eom unblocked, the phone interal memory is almost full and i don´t have any custom recovery such as twrp or others.
If anyone knows how to solve this or can send me to the right thread i would really appreciate it

You don't need usb debugging or oem unlocked to recover your phone. Smart switch's emergency recover detector isn't that reliable sometimes it doesn't detect devices in emergency recover mode. However there should be a second tab in smart switch to recover your phone. It's "device initialization", device initialization works similar like odin. If you don't have this tab then you probably installed a newer version of smart switch. If that's the case follow this instruction:
1. Uninstall current installed smart switch from your pc
2. Download this ealier version of smart switch from samsungs official download center.
3. Install it. Once you run smart switch you might get a pop up screen to update to the latest smart switch version: don't update it!!. press cancel.
4. Now reinstall usb drivers in smart switch: more > reinstall device driver. Make sure to disconnect your cable first.
5. if finished, locate to More > Emergency software recovery and initialization > device initialization
6. There is a section to enter your model name, enter SM-J500M. Press search.
7. Now you need to enter your serial number. As you can't access your phone to view your serial number, you can still find it printed on your phone packaging or behind your device's battery. Enter your serial number in S/N section. Press confirm. Note: New devices don't support "device initialization" but your device should be still supported
8. Now you should see a pop up window where you see something like "initialized version". Press Ok and let smart switch recover your device. You should see a bar appearing on your device screen. If you press "ok" be warned! this step will wipe all your data on your internal storage!
9. After it's finished your device should boot normal again.
Good Luck! :fingers-crossed:

It says "this devices don't support device initialization"
Thanks anyway,

Can you access odin mode (volume down + home button + power button to boot to odin mode)?
If yes, flash a stock firmware for your device using odin. You can download stock firmwares from SamMobile, SamFrew or Updato. Make sure you run Odin as administrator

Thank you, it worked!! :victory::victory:
i was trying whit a sammobile firmeware, i supose it was the wrong one, thanks for sending me the right one
