I was trying out a kitkat kernel which was for our kitkat official but I stupidly used it on an aosp rom and then my phone would only boot into cwm recovery and then I factory reset and it now doesnt even turn on, it shows up on my laptop but im running windows 8 and i havent been able to use the unbrick methods. If anyone can help out it would be appreciated and if i need to send it to LG i know i have breached warranty so what should i say to them?
Thanks!
Can you get into download mode?
Make sure the phone is off. Hold volume up and down at the same time and plug you USB cable into your phone, your phone should go into download mode.
It wont turn on at all, its like all the partitions have been corrupted. I cant get into download mode and when i go into adb it say (fault device) so I think ill need to send it back to LG

That sounds about right.....that really sucks man ....if you cant get into download mode and I don't know of a jig built for this device butni have one for Samsung which throws it into download mode......for our device I know of none..........your beat bet is probably to send it to lg as it seems to be hardbricked

Yeah i agree, thanks
Hi what should i tell LG on the phone when i call them? should i tell them the truth or a lie? its completly bricked so they wouldnt have any traces of me rooting it would they?

Sometimes if you try to charge the phone for a really long time (say 12 to 18 hrs at stretch) - the phone starts to turn on. Try that. and see if you can boot into download mode.
Also, when you give it to LG ... tell them that it is not turning on, thats it...
ok, i tried charging it but nothing happened so ill send it to them and just say that it wont turn on. Thanks!
Once they get it booted up and see the custom kernel and Rom they are most likely going to charge you full price for another phone and of course will not honor any warrantee. As long as you're ok with that go ahead and sent it back for a replacement. with that bein said, it's probably best you tell them the truth so you get accurate info from them ahead of time.

About 20 minutes ago I started Flashing Android Revolution HD on my device then the screen went black. Nothing's happened since then and now it won't start up or anything. What's going on?
I do believe that rom is for the international gs3.

Yes, sir, please get into that mode for me but first make sure your phone is off and then i'll guide you through the rest.
BTW: Are you at a computer? This requires you to download a stock image for your device which is around ~600MB.

I have the tar file in PDA on ODIN, but I can't get my device into download mode because it won't respond. I tried hitting start on Odin anyway but nothing happened.
I was thinking I could tell my computer somehow the device is my phone but I'm not sure if that would help without it being in download mode.
Edit: I'm reading through the post and discovered people in a similar position to me, my charging light does turn on red with no battery in. I'll see if there's some magic fix on that thread somewhere.

Okay so we need to focus on getting your phone into DL mode. Pull the battery for one minute and hold the power button down for ten seconds; re-insert the battery and try to get into DL mode again.

If you're sure you can't get into download mode then your best bet is to get a USB jig. They're fairly inexpensive, i'll link you one. This jig has good reviews and works for pretty much any Samsung device with DL mode:

Your phone will probably say qusb_dload or something if you try to plug it into your pc, further confirming that fact.

Please listen to this guy, only comment here containing any actual sense. QHSUSB_DLOAD=kiss of death
I received an SGH-T989 that wouldn't boot. It had TWRP on it, so I was able to flash latest stable CWM. Upon reboot, it apparently became hard-bricked.
Currently, I'm unable to enter download or recovery modes. USB Jig does not work. There is no output on the screen, even when charging the battery. When connected in Windows (32 or 64), I get a usb error message: "This device is disabled because the firmware of the device did not give it the required resources. (Code 29)"
My question: Is the motherboard dead, or could a jtag repair fix it?
What I've tried:
multiple micro usb cables
usb jig
odin
keis
heimdall
Thanks xda!

That would be great! I did see the S3 fix that loads a debrick.img from sdcard - would that work with hardbricked? Windows wouldn't load the usb drive for my phone, complaining that the firmware didn't give the "required resources". So if the firmware is borked, I'm not sure it would be able to load an external img.
I couldn't wait, though. Sent it out for jtag repair :fingers-crossed:

The t989 has great specs, only downside is its PPI (really low) if you still love it, I would wait if you want to send it into JTAG repairs, we are on the verge of unbricking our t989 without JTAG! Looks like we need someone with a working t989D though
I have been studying the other 'unbrick' methods, its definatly mind expanding, the amount of knowledge absorbed can seriously make you forget time n space.
If there is anything I can do / contribute holler at me.
Now ill tell you something weird so I flashed a rom not meant for T989D plus I did it all without being rooted. (if it matters) since Since the flash the phone doesn't boot into recovery or show a bootanimation, just darkness.Yet it felt operational in hand.
Once I plugged it back into the PC all I got was a constant notification of drivers that cannot be identified Also it keeps connecting and disconnecting the device.
None of this is weird until I installed OMAP flash and the T.I. drivers for which was used to fix my friends nexus. After he left I plugged my s2 to the PC still nothing. I looked away for a brief moment . Then i noticed MobileGo for Android popped on screen. Visually showing my s2 as an Alcatel rom.
just bizzare.....
The unbrick method on the S2 is a little different, but in General, at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2646310 after a little work, I resurrected a QHSUSB_DLOAD 9025 T989D to the point of ODIN and fully working Android OS working, just missing recovery.. Soon to follow in a day or so.

Hi, so I also have a hard bricked t989 galaxy s2 (tmobile variant) and I'm attempting to understand the instructions. However my phone has another issue...usb connection to the computer does not work, it hasn't worked since the micro usb port on the phone was replaced because the old one broke. So really the phone could charge but never connect to my pc as it cant be detected...so what are my options? If i create the sd card with the image, will i still need to connect it to a pc in order to force the phone into download mode? Please help...
Hi, I tried to flash 20b through twrp tonight.
I did factory reset, then flashed the bootstack, then flashed the system. But after that, my phone won't power on. I tried to remove the battery, holding power button for a long time, or power+volumn down.
The phone just does not respond at all. Can anybody help? Thanks!

when I had that problem I figured out that it was the battery that was making the phone act weird. Since LG sent me another battery when they had the promotion I used the other spare and that fixed it for me.
This happens right after I flashed the new system, I doubt it is the batter problem. If I plugged into the computer it still won't power on.
(If I remove the battery and plug into computer, the screen of the phone does show some symbol, probably regarding missing memory).
Let me try to see if I use kdz flash to reinstall the system. Thanks for the help.

This is why You don't flash the boot chain unless you absolutely must. I was running 20B with the old boot chain (other than rpm, that was updated) and it ran just fine. If you get a bad flash on the boot chain your sol.
I've already gone through a ton of posts regarding hard bricks, so there's a couple of things I would just like to confirm with an expert
How I bricked my phone - One day it suddenly started randomly doing a boot loop, and in order to fix it I booted my phone into CW recovery and tried to restore from an old image. Half way through my phone turns off and gets stuck on the boot screen so I take the battery out and was not able to get it to boot into recovery or turn on ever since
I also bought a USB Jig here: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/191271190580?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT but it doesn't work.
The only other alternative solution I've found in the forums is this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2439367 I was just wondering if this works 100% so I can go out and buy a 32gb microSD card; also I was wondering if it has to be class 10 or not?
Any help is appreciated! :good:
What happens if you take out the battery, and put it back? Does the phone do anything at all? Assuming it has a charge. The unbrick method works, but don't try that yet. And yes it has to be class 10

If you connect the phone to a Windows PC, does the phone appear in device manager as Qhsusb_dload? If it does, the de-brick method would be one choice. Paying for a jtag service is the other.
Yeah, try the debrick if there is no response. Or jtag as the above poster replied

When I connected it for the first time on my new computer it successfully installed a driver that had Qhsusb_dload in all caps. I'll start with the debrick method thanks!
While I was using SM-N910P 5.1.1 N910PVPU4COG5_Deodexed Rom, I changed SecContacts_Note_USA.apk file and it turned into Hard Brick.
It's a typical Hard Brick Hard Brick symptom in which nothing shows up on a screen even I pressed a power button and there is no vibration on the phone.
If I connect it to a computer, QHSUSB_BULK pops up.
After I setup a driver, it connects to Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008.
As I was searching for some information, I could find a solution for Note3 Hard Brick.
However,I do not have unbric.img file as it says on the solution.
I need unbric.img file.
Help Me
Can you get into download mode? Vol down+home+power. Seems odd that just changing that apk would brick your device, trust me I swap files in and out all the time but never had that issue.
Could be your battery is dead too

However,I do not have unbric.img file as it says on the solution.
I need unbric.img file.

Just install the ROM again it wont change anything besides having to reinstall xposed if you use that, or audio mods like viper.

Can you get into download mode? Vol down+home+power. Seems odd that just changing that apk would brick your device, trust me I swap files in and out all the time but never had that issue.
Could be your battery is dead too

Ok, for one thing, changing that file will not hard brick your phone.
You either did something else to cause this issue or your battery is drained or kaput... It's not unheard of around here.
Just out of curiosity how do you know the battery is full if you can't get anything from the screen?

I would definitely agree with this. That file alone wouldn't brick your phone. Trust me, as many different files I swap in and out on a daily basis I've never had that happen.

If you are for sure that your drivers are installed. (Double check our reinstall ). Plus make sure your using a Samsung usb cord (musty be a good one)
But if all that stuff is correct. Then you might have a failing battery or phone. That's about all the help i can provide.
If you could at least get the phone booted into download mode and pc to reconize it. Then i would Odin a stock firmware.
