bricked - any way to recover? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi,
long story short, but ****load of mishaps later I have a brick.
Recovery deosn't boot - starts booting then restarts again.
OS doesn't boot - gets stuck on booting logo.
Flash mode doesn't work either - boots into flash mode, but when I connect to USB I get "unknown device" and that's it.
Anything else possible to do?

[Q] Stuck in bootloop (yes one more)

Hello everybody,
I'm having a problem : after failing to flash a rom with cmw on my F320S, i got stuck in bootloop : when i turn it on, i only have the LG logo with LED on. I can go to download mode, but then the phone isn't recognized anymore by my pc.
So i tried everything i could from this forum :
- with LG mobile support tool (from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476) : it says "upgrade is stopped because of an error". The phone is plugged with LG logo on, and as i said before if i go to download mode it keeps telling me to plug the phone.
- with flashtool v1.5 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2475045) : if i plug the phone and turn it on, it asks me to go to download mode. But then the phone isn't recognized, and it says "download failed".
- with lg mobile support tool (the official one), it says my phone is up to date, and if i try the recovery after error option, the download never starts (i left it all night long).
I also tried to reinstall the drivers, with no effect.
As i said i'm on F320S, so all i have for startup is normal boot (stuck on LG logo), download mode (not recognized by computer), and if i push all 3 buttons a strange korean menu (google translation says it's "external structural mode" or something like that).
So if anyone had an idea, a solution, well anything that could help, i would be very grateful.
Thanks you all!

If anyone could even give me an idea, a hint, something? Did i miss something? Or is it bricked forever? Thanks!
can you boot into recovery?
If you can. either do adb sideload or flash a custom rom
Nope can't load into recovery... And in download mode phone isn't recognized, that's the main problem i guess, otherwise i would flash back to stock
Hey i finally maanged to get into recovery. But factory reset doesn't seem to work (unknown volume "/sdcard/ .andoid_secure). Wipe data didn't fix bootloop. Adb says no device. So what can i do?
Well after a whole day trying to get adb to work, i finally ended connecting to my G2. I followed all the steps to install twrp from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670 . But now when i boot i don't have twrp, and if i push vol+ and power i don't have cwm either (says recovery mode, loading, and never loads)...
I guess i'm in trouble, could anyone help?
hello anyone?

Brick Help - Stock Sprint ROM

Hello all,
As fate would have it, the day of me getting my new G5, my G2 went in to a boot loop before I could transfer my data.
I'm desperate to get the data back if possible. Below are the details.
Phone went in to boot loop, then would not turn on. I have tried periodically to turn on the phone, but it will not boot. It will loop at the LG screen and occasionally the Sprint screen. It intermittently charges when connected to power. Today, I hooked up it up to a PC and powered on and got the Demigod screen. Loaded dload mode, but the drivers didn't install. On reboot I got the LG screen with a security error and now it won't power up again.
Any suggestions? Seems like it may be hardware related.

Doesn't TWRP have to been installed when rooting a device? This device is not rooted.

Semi brick, firehose loop

Today I tried installing the new Paranoid Android but something went wrong during first boot and I am now the proud owner of a oneplus semi-brick. It seems to start and briefly shows the oneplus logo, then goes black, however, when plugged into my pc I can see it in the device manager.
I tried the Qualcomm unbrick guide but the downloadtool just puts the phone into a boot loop, briefly showing the logo before it reboots, again and again.
What else can I do?
Can you boot into fastboot?

No. When I try it just freezes when the fastboot text appears.
No access to recovery neither.

d802 hard bricked, cant enter recovery, download mode, any advice appreciated

Hiya I managed to brick my d802 after wipng from twrp I believe.
It seems hard bricked and nothing is working, all the happens when I boot is that i gets stuck in the LG logo. If I try download mode its not working, and impossible to boot into recovery mode, when I hit the power button all it shows is "charging! ??/100" in a yellow font in download mode
Its not showing up in windows device manager as anything but "charging" also tried the guide on short circuiting the connections on the processor and its not responding to that also.
Ive attracted a link to a screenshot of the charging error. any advice is appreciated.

If it's stuck in LG logo, it's possible to turn it off completely, put it in download mode with a computer and flash a stock kdz. No need to fry the transistors.

Stuck in Crashdump mode

Hi All,
I got my friends phone that is stuck in Crashdump mode and wont boot to any other like fastboot or recovery any Idea how to fix it ?
Never encountered anything like it so I have no Idea how to fix it.
Get MSM tool running on your computer. The phone can be showing crash dump mode. Connect phone with USB, hold down all three buttons. Might take a few tries but the tool should recognize the phone and flash the stock rom and lock the bootloader, then just do whatever steps you like from there.
Hello, I am facing the same issue. Initially I can fastboot and select the Start option. It helped to boot into the system successfully without any issue, but few minutes later it happend again and now I cannot even boot / fastboot the phone. No response after press the power button. May I know what should I do? Can I recover my data? Thanks.
