[Q] Am I Bricked/SoftBricked, Or lose my OS ? Please help.thanks - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Please be patient,& Gentle with me, I'm new here,,, (TY) Hi, I have a Pantech P9060 (old I know ) Android 2.3.4 , Gingerbread( Stock Rom). It's rooted. It will turn on, load in the boot screen- and stop there, and if I touch the power/menu keys, it will start the loop acting boot process, without re-starting the phone , just continuous boot screen. I have changed the boot screen probably 3/4 times from the original AT&T screen using Jimmy Rummel apps, Rom Installer . I've tried returning back from backup, Titanium Pro, I backed up to google drive as well, but regardless I can't seem to reset to factory( which I've done before), or even update, Nothing.. It's so frustrating. I've searched these forums inside out for a solution as to not bother you guys with my old phone issues, but I have to admit, I need help with this. I don't think it's hard bricked, I'm thinking I may have flashed the wrong Rom( im not sure though) trying to upgrade from 2.3.4 .. Not positive though. I sure hope there's someone to help me here, It wont connect to the PC syncing, Pantech PC Suite, yet my pc shows the phone in Device Manager and Computer. So I'm hoping I've done something simple, :/ stupid,,but simple. Anyone help me out ? Rooted Apps & System info/apps on my phone are in a File Manager > xposed, bootmanager, clockworkmod, rom mod installer pro, Titanium Pro, and others...Can it someway be just flashed to a new rom of some version? :crying: Thanks in advance.......

Don't think that there are any custom updates. I found this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IOQJJCSKC4 - Sorry it's not in English, but it's the only thing I found that actually had a download of the rom. Even Pantech doesn't seem to have anything besides the manual and drivers for it.

Thanks

If the device powers up but is not able to boot into the operating system, that is referred to as a soft brick.

[Q] white screen htc diamond 2 t5388i clon chinese [help me]

Good
Searching the internet I came here to change the rom of my phone, use the hard reset and did not have any problem in the process, then asks me to restart the phone, restarted, and when a screen turns white and does not come out of it, no more than anything.
I'm a little desperate now, I know there is a high-value mobile but it cost me to raise the money to buy it, I hope you have a solution and can help me.
From already thank you very much
PS: sorry for my bad English, I am South American
Sounds like you flashed and incompatable ROM or didn't use hard_spl either way go over to the htc official website - click support find your device and it will list some stock ROMs download an official ROM using the S/N from underneath the battery - Make sure the battery has plenty of charge - plug into your PC and load the stock htc ROM file this should take you through all the standard ROM flash info and will then flash the stock ROM onto your device. Hopefully this will flash back to stock for you and no more white screen.
Good luck and let us know how it went

I think that what you say is only for original phone htc diamond 2, since according to official rom I read are for the real htc diamond 2.
The mine is not original, as it says is a Chinese clone t5388i, please follow the screen in white, would greatly appreciate if someone helps me out of this problem is quite afflicted.
Again sorry for my bad English
sorry missed the clone bit on your topic . I don't have a clone myself so no ideas if the hard reset works. Might be a good idea to post which ROM you flashed to it
good day
the mobile screen just stayed white and does not know how I can flash now, there will be someone who has been the same and have a solution? I appreciate it, I would be very helpful.
Greetings
HTC_NEW, please check this topic. It's dedicated to the clone phones (except the T5388++ who has it's own topic)
There is a tool called k3AID available who could help you. It's posted in that topic about 50 posts ago. I have a copy if you need it.
There is also another possibility to do a blind flash. This means the screen is not working but the phone can still be flashed. First thing is get the correct firmware for your phone because each time you flash the phone can get bricked / defect.
If my feedback helps you to solve your problem, please give me a thanks on the post.

hello friend
Reading that topic and searching for the tool by

have managed to solve the same problem, as no
I have a good English I can not understand how it's done
the process, did you guys could help me with a small
tutorial on how to fix my phone with that program?
I enter the program is that you give to download mode and
then I get 'EU entry Not calibration mode! (Mode =
0x00) 'and then does nothing else, I hope I can
help, thanks from now!
hello
I finally entered the discharge mode and while carrying on the idt went for something to eat when I returned I showed up he was 100% complete, the phone went off and did not catch more! Does anyone know it could happen? Is there any way to restart?
please help

Sometimes may be a bit dificult to get K3AID working.. it can show some error message like "RTM state Error" - You need to install h++p://www.ulozto.cz/6556123/cabviaactivesync-1-5-setup-exe

@HTC_NEW: Did you do the following steps according to reeprich instructions? What was the end result?
I did read that you used the calibration menu but I expect that you should use the download firmware menu. Is that available? ( I had the software installed but my virus scanner complained that there is a virus in the tmp file...) What's more important if your phone does not work anymore... Please be aware that this is a possible virus.
Removing the battery for a couple of minutes can help for restarting the phone.

I have done the same thing with my t5388i clone from china.
I tryed to flah the ROM and now I have the white screen.
I used the SOLONOMI t5388i rom, and now it is BRICK - white screen.
Did you get your phone working back ?
Now i´m trying to use other ROM´s , but until now no success.
I used the SOLONOMI t5388i rom, and now it is BRICK - white screen.
Hi,
I had the same problem.
I used the rom postet from parabellum20000 (post # 1354) in this thread:

Electronic star finally sent me (what they claim to be) SD ROM for t5388i. (99.3MB) I personally do not want to verify if it is truth, I am the one fortunate owner of perfectly (in some degree) working phone. Please feel free to use it on your own risk and share results if possible.

P.S.Please remember, flashing your phone with a wrong ROM is the safest way to brick (damage) it. So do not do it if it isn’t really necessary!

Well you mest up with rom manager without any knowledge about it. AFAIK Your phone is now fully brick. You need to replace your motherboard(GOOD LUCK WITH WARRANTY )
Sent from my GT-S5830 using Tapatalk
If Flashing and Unbrick not working, what ever you do or how you try, then you probably messed up your boot ROM and it´s BRICKED. SORRY FOR YOU, but always, I MEAN ALWAYS read and search the forum 10 TIMES, before you start up messing your phone. It can very yeasely BRICKED.
I hope you can change it from service for free. Say that you trying restore to FACTORY setting(just make up some story[believable], why you was need to restore to FACTORY settings). Maybe they belive you and change your BRICKED phone to new one. Thumbs up for you and dont do anything stupid next time!!!
P1tt187, just out of curiosity - how did you even do that?
When I tried to use ROM Manager it told me to install the correct drivers, but Galaxy Ace isn't supported, so I just resigned. Which drivers did you use?
P1tt187 My friend had the same thing, he used a ROM Manager to back up the ROM in the ACE. Identical symptoms. Only the Samsung service will help. Tell him that you turned off phone and not turn on (Phone) . Samsung Service exchanged him motherboard in ACE (on guarantee).
Galaxy Ace not supported yet by ROM manager! Sorry for you but search the forum(or just GOOGLE it) before trying something first. There is always GOOGLE to helping(if you not found it here). Just USE it!
I have rooted and customized all my phones(HTC, SAMSUNG), JAILBREAKED AND UNLOCKED all my IPhones(3G and 4G), just waste some time, for GOOGLE! But you must be patient. Everything is not coming in first search(but everything is there, TAKE THE TIME and be sure for right thing).
CHEERS!
Hey,
I just have the same problem, but I didn't touch to the ROM or anything else
I just rooted my phone with SuperOneClick, turn it off and it never turn on again...
Since my phone is rooted, I don't know if the warranty is lost, but I think so...
I already tried to remove the battery and then put it back while holding ok + volume down + power, but it didn't work, the screen stays completely black...
I'll let my phone rest a few days and then send it to Orange while I pray --'
Any other idea guys ?
( sorry for my bad english...)

I rooted the phone then installed rom for it but it stopped working in any mode (dead phone) i can't even go to downloading mode or recovery mode it just stopped

Answer my questions from my previous post so that I can help you.
firstly i started with rooting and it goes well
secondly i started in the rom (it was the biggest mistake in my life) i have done it by downloading the room in my phone then install it via recovery mode
after this the phone stopped in the "yellow triangle" and didn't work..
after that i tried to install the root again and it didn't work so i done the second mistake by shutting down the phone by using power button and after that my phone dead...
so sad man...
Since you can't go into recovery mode (or any other), there is nothing more you can do. If your device is under warranty, then you know what they say.. "Drown your device" Make sure it's completely dead. If they ask, then just say it fell in a river, lake, toilet or something. If you do this, you can carry it back for your warranty (and get a new device ). Just make sure you do not tell them that you rooted your device (or even tried).

[Q] Bricked S5830, please help me

Hi all,
I have looked for a similar post, I found out that many people experienced something like that trying unlocking their phones, but I haven't found out any solution.
Here is my situation:
I have tried to unlock my s5830 (orange spain carrier), I have used a method which it seems to be dangerous for the phone, but of course I have found out it was dangerous after I have already tried it
Anyway after I discovered the unlock number contained in the perso.txt file in the efs folder, my phone restarted without service once and after that it went in a bootloop mode, it goes on a download mode, but there is no way to get back recovery mode or a normal boot.
I flashed the s5830 several times with many firmware, but no one worked, and the phone is still stuck in an infinite loop, in which I am not even able to see the samsung logo coming out at the very beginning.
I know many phones got bricked in this way, I wanted to know if anybody has been able to recover the phone or if anybody know any possible solution.
And if not, do you know if the warranty is covering this problem? I just got the phone a couple months ago; i have unlocked other devices before, but this is the first time I have experienced a problem so I am quite new about warranty as well. Please HELP ME
Merry Christmas guys!!!
Thanks in advance

with the cellphone off, put out ur baterry for a minute, then maintain ur finger into the volume down button and the power button tell a friend or if u can alone insert the batery while quickly pressing volume down and power button to get into download mode, and flash.
Hehehe,bootloop is horrible,you just have to get in download mode & flash with 2.3.4 firmware with Odin,just that steps and you save your SGA.
I got bootloop many times and Odin saved me.

If you can go to recovery mode than you can just wipe the data and cache. This saved me many times. Otherwise on what ever OS you may be , just create new user name after removing samsung android drivers. Login from new user name and than re install drivers again and now flash your phone from firmware which was installed on your phone before you bricked it. This helped me a few times.

It seems that you've already received a lot of help for unbricking your device. So I'll try to help out in unlocking your phone after you finished unbricking it.
This is the method I personally used on my locked Ace:

It's perfectly safe. 100%.

thank you very much I will follow your advice...IF I will be able to get my phone back which seems impossible =(
@dr_vishal
Thank you first of all, I have tried to uninstall and reinstall the android device driver, but it doesn't seems to be the problem, Odin ends with a "PASS" at the end, I guess there still is comunication in the between the two devices...
Hopefully it will be a Merry Christmas =)
It's not impossible. I'm relatively new here but I have noticed quite a few "bricked" threads already. Most of them (if not all) have been able to fix their device. I haven't seen a single person permanently brick their device, so I would guess that your chances of fixing it are really high. Just be patient and keep describing your situation and more experienced help will certainly arrive. I'd really like to help out but I have no idea how to fix it as I have not experienced bricking my phone yet.
Anyway, if the method for unlocking I suggested works for you kindly press the Thanks Button. Merry Christmas!

Guys,
I am out of ideas, I have tried each single firmware I have seen around internet, no one is working, any tip or advice or suggestion?
I messed up with the efs, and I guess that's all, the phone is gone....now it needs a JTAG or whatever is its name....
maybe to get the warranty still valid I should broke totally the phone over charging it....??

just a thought
a lot of people have talked about reflashing it and all but have you managed to get into the recovery mode at all once you have reinstalled the rom with odin? if you can get to that you just need to hit factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik and normaly after that it will work fine... so far ive been stuck in soft brink 3 times and each time doing the wipes from the recovery mode has worked...

I've tried to use the oneclick, but it seems it doesn't recognize the phone, since, i guess, it's made for a galaxy s.
The others are not my case, since I am able to get download mode, and all these are made to can get it back.
Anyway I found out a post in which the people were talking about the s5500, which apparentely is similiar to my device, and the owners of that model experienced a similar problem doing the same process....anyway in that post the people needed to use a Jtag, which is the only way to get it back....so I though it could be the same solution for my problem...but I don't know anybody with Jtag, so the only way is contacting the service center.
thanks anyway, when I will be back at home after Christmas I will try to find the ticket and I will probably try to get it back in warranty, since is preatty new...

I am not able to reach recovery mode, there is no way to get it back, even flashing the phone with different firmwares, all I got is download mode, and apparently that is completely pointless...since the only change in the phone behavior is that if i install a certain firmwares it doesn't even have the back-light working when it is stuck in bootloop.
Warranty is your only hope (as it was mine once and it worked).
I didn't think it was possible to brick these phones. There I have tried so much to try and brick it but I have not been able to as it still always goes into 'download' mode. The only advice I can give you is double check that you are using the correct version of Odin which is v4.38 and that you use cooper v1.0 as your OPS. If dont mind me asking, but exactly what did you do or do you remember the steps you took to brick it? What buttons are you using for 'recovery' mode.
Also please clarify if Odin is going in a loop or does the phone come on and then keeps rebooting? If it is the phone that keeps rebooting, then wiping cache and data partition should do the trick. This can be done by going into recovery mode (which I am aware you cannot get into) or if you can manage to get into the dialler quick enough before the reboot, by dialling *7267*3855# and that should format the relevant partitions (data and cahce) and bring it back to factory settings. Without further info, I cannot really tell exactly what the situation is.
The fact that you are getting 'download' mode, I dont think that it is bricked because it will still allow you to write the relevant directory/files to the relevant blocks. Either way, would be interested to know.

[Q] Mv systemtuner -> out of /sys into user apps. PLEASE HElp

Hi, please please please help... I guess im an idiot. And i "sort of knew" what i was doing....
I moved system tuner into the user apps out of sys and immediately got errors almost back to back as everything on my phone crashed, i tried desperately to navigate back and undo the process before the phone died but i failed and now im really scared its bricked.
I cant reboot its stuck on logo (no animation)
I cant safe boot (stuck on logo and says "starting rsd protocol.
Please is there any thing i can do, any way to reverse this, i was just gunna go into safemode and move it back. Do i need to flash over a recover? Can i even? Im so scared its bricked
I also have super user installed and i set it to auto allow but after the move this was changed? Default set to no when system tuner app asked to switch and that messed it all up?
Please please please help, sorry if this is bad section im not sure why my acnt is "new" its yrs old and ive even helped some noob programmers on here in the past, yes noobs can help noobs
So even if u have ideas let me know... Im scared
Android 2.3 moto atrix
Edit: yes im rooted, no custom roms. kay ima just sit here the next seventeen hrs waiting while i surf the web, thanks so much to anyone who even reads this! Ive done so much worse learning to "program" for android. I mean i cant believe i didnt brick it in the past, these things seem unbrickable (hope).
Edit2: wow this is gunna be a long one... Zero finds online... Zero :/ i tried taking battery out for a while didnt work... Not sure what that does anyway... Reset some kind of voltage dependent cached info?
Edit3: going to try to put this in a more appropriate section. Sorry i didnt mean to put it here :/ grrrrrr sry
You could boot in recovery and perform what's called a factory reset. That will factory reset your device. It should work as long as you got a recovery of some sort. Not sure if it will affect your root status but since your stock and rooted, you could just reroot.

Omg!!! Fuuuuuuuudnuts! Anything at all not related to recovery
Also any help on that factory reset? I have two copys of backup of cellphone. One on pc one on phone. I have titanium-backup on phone (i had it frozen using system tuner)
But... I have absalutly no idea whatsoever what to do... How do i even get this atrix into recovery? Ill go check but if u no offhand pls tell me. Also if anyone knows the exact problem i am need to know, because something this simple shouldnt require a recovery!!!!! Plus im not even sure that will work (( so if anyone knows wtf happened please tell me
Funny hpw the brain works... I was gunna make backup before doing this... But the extra 10 mins was too long ((((( anyone know a way that involves only flashing? From what i know two types of flashing exist and one lets you edit by bit which means maybe i can just move over a file? Im not sure what im talking about or which technology is used/or mainly used in the android. Anyway i will do a recovery if i have too but im gunna wait few hrs.
I think ii found a way using cwm.. But i dont have that idk why ........Its amazing.... New phone :/
Can somebody please help i tried factory recovery still no success ((
Im guessing its bricked... Which is pretty sad because the technology should let me fix this i want to know exactly what happened... I moved one app out of /sys that i put there ((((
I can enter android recover mode and nvflash and some others that i dont understand.
In android recovery i tried factory reset data and clear cache. Both of which should solve my problem.......
Im baffled it didnt work, should i buy a sd card and load my backup from pc onto it and select it in android recovery as backup? I always thought adb mode was merely flashing reprogramming read only parts of memory... I hence thought i could just use nvflash... I read alot and i still dont know if i can.... I know technology allows it... But.... I found this ?
