Yep, that's a hard brick. You got yourself a shiny paperweight.
is there any method to recover the brick ??
Its a hard brick. The only solution is to buy another one. In the meantime try and get it warrantied out by moto.
I voided my warranty.
R.I.P. Moto claims another innocent soul who didn't read directions.

Hi guys,
My O1 is dead. I'm gonna send it for repair but I have a question. I've rooted my device and even installed custom recovery; flashing several roms as well. When my phone went dead, it was on a stock 2.2 rom. Now for the question: Will they repair my phone for me? ^.-
Thanks
It depends, I heard ppl that had custom roms and they got their phone repaired
Just don't tell them anything and hope for good
If something inside is fried then you might not be so lucky.
Oohh... Btw I managed to flash my phone's firmware with kdz updater but when I used the official LG application to update my software, it totally screwed up. Irony, isn't it?
Lol. It's good you didn't turn it in then. They would have voided your warranty. You can only go and ask them to repair it for you when the flashing chip on the mobo is dead

Mine was repaired, after failed on flashing a different stock ROM.
The previous working rom was the wrong official one but non-rooted
I got it back after a week with new PCB

I reported that my phone rebooted itself asking for PIN password while i was in my living room watching TV having it on the table in front of me. I tried to enter password but it was stuck and i only could remove battery, after inserting the battery, phone was not responding at all!
They sent it to LG service case closed, phone repaired ^^
Honestly my phone was stuck in emergency mode lol I did take out the battery though

If it shows some life signals, then you need to COMPLETELY BRICK it.
If it's completely dead, they
1) cannot find what have you done in it's software
2) they're gonna believe the story easier
3) they're gonna put a new PCB, so it's like having a new phone.
try and flash using kdz flasher use a stock 2.2 rom
press vol up + menu button and then connect the usb port to pc .
flash from kdz hope it works mine was dead too but i gt the phone back to life using the method and choose cs emergency while flashing

I see... I have another question. When I attempted to update using the official LG Updater, my phone was such in recovery halfway through the process. It was still in emergency mode but according to the Updater, I was asked to remove the battery. My phone went dead right after that. Do you know why it went dead?

Just for the record, I bricked my phone again. Sending it to the service center again zzz

Make sure your battery didn't died out. Put the charger in and wait a couple of minutes. What rom did you flash?

Hi guys, I originally had my S2 on MIUI, I tried flashing it to the original stock rom but it got stuck in a boot loop

Just hold Vol Up + Power + Home until it reboots to recovery, then restore from the backup I hope to God you made.
What version of gs3 do you have. International or us? Cause there are some people who bricked the US GS3s in an attempt to flash Omega.

Make sure your phone is off (pull the battery for 5sec) and that it's not connected via USB.
Then press and hold Volume-Down, Home-Button (center) and Power.
(In that order)
When the logo appears, immediatly release the Power while still holding the other 2 until download mode appears.
If it does not work, make sure you haven't slipped off a button and repeat procedure a few times.
If it still does not work you're officially softbricked and need a Jig (Usb-plug with an intern resistor).
They're quite cheap and several repair shops seem to have one. You can also make it yourself if you're any good with a solder iron. It really isn't hard and you can't break anything.
If you've got your hands on a jig, make sure the phone is powered off, then plug the jig in. It will magically turn on and immediatly show download mode. (If it tries to boot, turn it off and repeat, that happens if the jig isn't seated properly)
Should it remain off, your jig isn't exactly 301kOhm (several cheap ones are 300kOhm)

Have you tried what the previous guy said and got in to download mode? If you can get to download mode you are fine. Just need a rom you can install via odin or just reinstall recovery via Odin. Then wipe and reinstall another rom again.
Nuff said really. I highly doubt you have softbricked the device if you can get to the boot logo.

You should never flash a custom rom
A. if you have no idea (Clearly you have never don this before)
B. YOU NEED A JIG
and you will need a multi file rom not a single as you need to do a reparation
or take it to samsung and put your hands up and say your a twit
will cost £40

Hello guys.
Unfortunately my galaxy s3 cannot turn on. My phone started to freeze all the time and I got a message when i turned on that i have to wipe data because my cell phone can become unstable. Below the message it was a key which said "I am feeling lucky" :/ I tried to boot to recovery with the standard way of Home + volume + power and Android logo came on the screen like the way when I updated the firmware. When it stuck after 10 mins I turned it off and now the only thing I can see is a white screen with grey lines. nothing more nothing less.
I cannot do anything via toolkit because it cannot find the mobile...
Please help!!!!!!

Wow "i am feelin lucky" hackers are getting a sense of humor...
U shouldve understood immediatly it was a virus...if it cant find something its probably cause the virus flashed stuff on your phone. Try searching the internet for this sort of phone infection youre likely to find the "fix" immediatly..

if the last firmware which was installed was the stock firmware and unrooted (i have reset the counter on the download rom) it can be replaced over the warranty?
