[Q] phone not recognized by computer. - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

hello, i am looking for help with a problem. i have 2 galaxy s 2 phones. i have a windows 7 machine with drivers installed. the weird part is that my phone is recognized with my computer with no problem. my wife's phone on the other hand does nothing. i mean nothing.. the only thing it will do is charge the phone. i have tried everything but nothing works with this phone. the other problem is that i can't put it in download mode. i hold vol+ and vol- and plug the cable in but it does nothing. i also tried volume down + home button and power at same time with no success. it just boots up like normal or goes into recovery. this is crazy!!! i do know it's not the drivers because the other phone is recognized. any help would be great. i have been at this for 8 hours and counting...

[Q] Possibly hard bricked T-mobile SGS 2

Hi everyone!
I have a bricked SGS2 from t-mobile. I can't tell exactly what has been flashed to it before, because it wasn't done by me. After flashing a rom it's bricked.
At the moment I can't get it into download mode or turn it on. The screen is black.
Things I've tried and they didn't work:
1. Charge the battery in case it's disscharged. (the phone is charging the battery, but there are no indication lights)
2. Remove battery>press vol up and vol down>insert usb cable.
3. I bought a usb jig and it also doesn't work. ( I followed all instruction how to get it work)
4. When I connect the phone to the PC (with battery or without it) the PC offers me to format the drive I inserted, and every 5 seconds the phone drive gets disconected and connected again after each time windows offers me to format the drive.
5. When I press the power button- nothing happens.
Anyone could help me? Has anyone sorted this kind of problems?

Cant get into download mode,

Im able to get into twrp recovery, and fastboot mode but not download mode... I wanted to put the phone back into stock and i thought wiping out everything would do so but i guess not.
Whenever i press the download mode command which i did was volume up down and power then plug into the laptop the 3 buttons will flash but my laptop won recognized it. I tried installing the LG Optimus G drivers but still unable to install it. Also TWRP says that the phone isnt rooted anymore and has no OS.

First off it's Vol Up + Vol Down while powered off and then plug into computer. DO NOT press the power button.
Secondly what ver. of windows and did the computer have any issues prior with connecting to the phone?
There is another fix but it's a bit drastic and wouldn't recommend it at this point.

oh well that might be the reason why. il try it out..im using windows 7 and it was working before i wiped everything.
link me to that fix if anything thanks
On my phone, Download Mode is only accessed when Vol + and - and power from a powered off state, while any USB cord is plugged in, either to a PC, or a wall charger.
After flashing, i noticed that the phone has some issues powering on and off normally i.e. phone completely died, plug the phone into the charger, screen turns on, phone is theoretically charging, but does not show any charging display icon. Which then forces me to unplug the phone, press and hold the power button for 10 seconds, press and hold the power again to turn the phone on, and immediately plug it into the charger in order to get the phone to normally boot up. I flashed CM 10.2 from the original android dev thread. I think that was just a design flaw that LG had originally, but meh, what can i say.

[Q] Galaxy s3 i747 brick

After clearing cache and everything for an install of my rom if kept failing. With issue 7. Someone with the same problem did freezas bootloader modem flash or something with the same phone. I done loaded the correct install and I restarted my phone. Nothing happened. My phone won't turn on. I've have literally tried everything except usb jig and jtag. before I made a jig I just wanted to see if anyone out there could tell me for sure if this is a jig fix or a jtag fix. Phone won't turn on. Did the factory download mode buttons and nothing. Did the cwm mode buttons and nothing. Held the power button and nothing. Held power and volume up and the power volum down still nothing. Plugged into computer and wall socket, nothing. Take battery out hold power button and plug usb from computer into phone, red charge light connects and then disconnects. I was thinking it may be a soft brick since I do get some sort of response out of it. If it was hard bricked it would do absolutely nothing, or am I wrong?
Also, once I get the red charge light on I have tried using adb to try to reboot boot loader,etc (everything). Doesn't find any devices cuz once plugged in it connects and disconnects. Except for when I plug it in and hold the power button. Only then will it make the connect sound and not the disconnect, but nothing is ever found on computer or with adb when searching. Always no device listed.
Go here to page 17 and read through page 20, it will likely help you unbrick, I had a hard brick lastnight and recovered it myself using this method.

Android 2.2 keeps rebooting on boot, can´t enter recovery

Hi all. I´ve got this tablet: Arnova 10 G1 - rooted. I have a problem with booting. When it starts, it keeps rebooting on boot screen. I can´t go into the recovery mode :crying:. I've got these buttons: Volume Up ´, Volume Down, reset button and power button. I have 2 USB ports. One large and one small USB port (microUSB).When I connect to PC, It doesn t recognize it. ´ I had connected the two USB ports.I do not know what further. Thank you very much for your help.

Bricked? Download mode locked.

To my "pleasant" surprise my Ta-1045 Nokia 6.1 seems to have died while I was at work. It functioned when I arrived at work, there are a number of apps the company has on our phones, and when I pulled it out later to send my boss a message the screen was on and in download mode.
I've tried the volume button up (and down) with power button. It reset back into download mode. I got it home, plugged it in, and tried setting up ADB/Fastboot. All the drivers throw Code 10. I've tried ADB drivers, intel adb drivers, old nokia adb drivers. I did not have the phone in USB/Debugging mode when it died. Curiously, device manager does recognize 'Fastboot Device" whenever I unplug/plug in the phone. But when I use fastboot devices or devices -l I get nothing. And yes, the usb cables are good to go. They have transferred data to/from the device in the past, but I changed up cords and ports to be sure.
My googlefu is coming up short on this one. Anyone know a solution? Short of buying a new phone that is. Win 10 machine here.
Thanks.
If your computer recognizes a Fastboot device, and your bootloader is unlocked, you may give this a shot: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77411700.
Otherwise you can try to factory reset your phone via stock recovery (reboot while plugged by pressing vol-up + power, without releasing vol-up iirc ?) When you get the blackscreen with a dead robot, just press power (sometimes a few times, sometimes with vol-up/down simultaneously, it's kinda buggy) and you're good to go
This will really help. It will erase your data. But your mobile will be back again without going to service center.
