[Q] Hard Brick fastboot issues topic

Ok so here's what happened.

Couple days ago I mistakenly selected "install now" while attempting to postpone the OTA on my VS980. Phone was rooted on stock ROM via stump root and I had not installed a custom recovery yet.

Phone then would only show the LG screen and display an error. No download mode or recovery.

So I utilized a VM running Ubuntu and pushed the sdl1, aboot, rpm, tz and TWRP 2.7 to the phone.

upon restart of the phone It would only start up into fastboot mode. The only other thing it would do is bring up the hardware key mode ( done by pressing vol-, pwr, vol+ at the same time)
Phone would report two errors upon being plugged into the computer and the computer only recognizes the phone as an adb device in device manager

"EP1/out FAIL nfo=40pg0=f910700"
"usb_read() transaction failed"

So I installed the adb on windows and in terminal on Ubuntu. I also installed the unified LG drivers, SDK and the google USB drivers. I now get the same error messages but the fastboot mode now constantly resets.

here is what it goes through
"fastboot mode started"
"reset"
"portcharge"
"fastboot: processing commands"
"reset"
"EP1/out FAIL nfo=40pg0=f910700"
"portcharge"
"usb_read() transaction failed"
"fastboot: oops!"
"fastboot: processing commands"
"reset"
"EP1/out FAIL nfo=40pg0=f910700"
"portcharge"
"usb_read() transaction failed"
"fastboot: oops!"
"fastboot: processing commands"

this goes on and on....

any ideas on where to go from here?

[Q] Tf300T hard brick, screen won't go on topic

Hi people,

So, during flashing the stock rom on my Tf300T (which I've used before) the installation stayed on the same spot for over an hour. I thought it was a good idea to turn off the power and do it all over again. Unfortunately the device doesn't turn on anymore. Or at least, the screen doesn't. It gets recognised by windows but not by fastboot. Is there anyone who can tell me what to do?

Thanks in advance!

[Q] Looking for a phone for a hard of hearing luddite. topic

Hi

My 90 yo mother needs a new phone. The 8 year old Samsung is giving up. She needs one that is really LOUD. She refuses to wear a hearing aid or headset. I also it needs be on Verizon. She is on my plan and I get an very good rate on a corporate unlimited plan. The Jitterbug would be perfect except it is locked into "Great Calls" and apparently can't be unlocked to be activated on Verizon.
It needs to be simple. A smart phone would be an over kill but is a possiblity.

Any recommendations?

Thanks in advance
John.

Help!! Hard bricked my sch-i545vrufnk1 vzw s4 topic

Hello all, I think I may have hard bricked my s4 but I can still get in to stock recovery and odin mode (download mode?) so Im sure. I've gotten out of soft brink many times but this one is winning and it's my daily driver. I'm fairly sure I partitioned ROM Slot-1 in Safestrap to small for the intnended ROM. Upon trying to reboot or power up I get black samsung custom screen and I have to pull batt to procede with only two choices: stock recovery and a file from my sd card or odin mode with proper zip file and procedure. Kies doesnt recognize and I've tried going back to NC5 through odin but that fails. I've reflashed the vrunk1 kernel and it doesnt fail but blk custom screen interupts and freezes the process.

Any help is appreciated. I FEEL that the phone is recoverable but hope is dwindling. Thanks to all.

[HELP] [Q] Soft brick or hard brick? topic

I've searched around the forum and haven't hit a solution, so sorry if it's out there.

So, I have a Galaxy S4 Active (i537) ATT. I was given to me in a bootlooping state, and if I fix it I can keep the device.
What I have done to the moment:
Flashed every stock rom found in the forum with Odin (No luck on the device booting)

What the device does:
It shows the samsung splash, and restarts over and over, sometimes it doesn't even manage to get to the samsung splash.

Info on Download mode:
Product name: SGH-i537
Current Binary: Samsung official
System Status: Official
Knox kernel lock: 0xfffffffc
Knox kernel warranty void: 0xfffffffc
CSB-CONFIG-LSB: 0x30
Write protection: enable
emmc burst mode enabled

I'm new to samsung devices, so I hope someone can help me out here.

Thanks in advanced!

[Q] LG P920 - Can't do a hard reset! topic

Hi everybody

I've got an LG P920 which was on version 2.2 v10a. I updated it with LGFLashtools to ICS V30 (I also tried with V28B) but touchscreen wasn't working with those versions. So I had to make a downgrade with a package called "Partition test bin", which worked OK, but left me with a Korean software. So, I put it in USB Debug Mode, and flashed an official V20a KDZ, but the problem is that it's looping, so I need to hard reset the phone. The thing is that I cannot do it, I press vol- + power + home button or vol- + power +3d button and it doesn't enter the wipe menu.

Does anybody got any suggestion?
BTW, now when I enter download mode I have a Korean Screen.

Thanks a lot in advance.

[Q] Hard Bricked D851 topic

I bricked my T Mobile G3 D851 by flashing Dark Knight 5.0 rom that was in this thread. I didn't think much of it because normally roms are in the right places in xda, I understand its my fault and there is no one to blame but myself. I just need some help restoring it. It does not turn on at all. I plugged it into the computer however, it showed some life. My computer was installing the drivers automatically but it fails. So there has to be a way to fix this right??
