This. I think the term "bricked" has been genericized. If your bootloader is unlocked, short of a hardware issue, it seems very difficult to actually brick. Like you have to go out of your way and mess up the bootloader

Post in the right section please.

Yeah man.
Getting stuck at the Samsung screen or a Bootloop is a "Soft Brick"
A "Hard Brick" is only when nothing does anything. The device doesnt respond to any combination of pressed buttons, screen stays black no matter what.

I think you have that backwards. Bricking a device with an unlocked bootloader is VERY possible if you start messing with files.
Its a locked bootloader that's nearly impossible to Hard Brick.
P.S. - I think we should replace the term "Brick" with "Paperweight" !

[Q] Question about brick ?

i have a question for you guys what i have not
do for to get a cell phone brick ?
i have read many threads and the only way for to get it is by using application rom manager thats right or i can get a brick cell phone in odin software.
what if by a mistake set files in a wrong order in odin software
galaxy ace cf gingerreal v1.0 kph
thanks in advance
WHY would you put the wrong files in ODIN, just read the tutorial and follow it correctly?
And to kinda answer the question, what've read is that ODIN will not brick you phone, you might be able to get a bootloop though (just reflash and it should work fine).
Read the newbie guide(sticky thread) about Rom manager, it should be supported now but be cautious, better to use CWM app instead, or just reboot your phone to CWM (dont be lazy).
People brick their phone when unlocking their phone, there should be a proper solution that works without having to brick you phone.

[Q] Stuck after root.

Hello,
I've seen so many people having rooted phone, so I tried it by myself. The problem is after doing all the work using Odin 1.85 the phone is stuck at booting up process with the yellow triangle on (I know where the triangle comes from). I have tried flash the device and it didn't work either. The phone does not allow me to go into the recovery mode. I've tried to install the original ROM but without any changes.
Is there any way I can get it up without the service?
Get the rooted stock from the development forum. follow download directions.

If he couldn't handle rooting, I'm afraid this may go bad, too.
Directions
So that means I have to go to the developers section in the forum, download the ROM and mount it using the Odin ?

USB JIG and LPQ?

My JIG cant remove yellow triangle after flash of LPQ ???
HELP...

Sucks to be you.
Maybe a search will help you. If you did, you'd find two options.
Good luck finding them.
I'll give you a hint, the acronym for one is TA, and the other involves flashing something.

You need to flash the old bootloader (or use CF's app) to remove the triangle.
You won't get much help finding the old bootloader, despite the fact that all the links in the search results are currently dead. Instead, you'll get folks slamming you for asking the question.
Or you can use triangle away in the original development thread as oinkylicious hints above.
The yellow triangle gives your phone magical powers, why would you want to get rid of it?

The jig is safer. Even Chainfire himself acknowledges this and recommends it be used instead of his own app.
Personally, I'd rather have a link to the old bootloader too, but nobody's willing to provide one.

Just ask and you will get it. Below is the Old Bootloader to work with USB JIG.
Ok.. Thanks,,. Now I have the old boot loader..
What then?
Flash in ODIN ?
Flash in CWM ?
Will old bootloader make problems in LPQ rom ??
Flash it in the PDA or bootloader section of Odin (makes no difference which). No, shouldn't cause any problems with LPQ.
Flashing bootloader is very dangerous .. it will make your device mess if you fail flashing it
if u thank me then i will thank you ( 이 승 기 )

Galaxy firmware won't be installed

Ok a friend S3 started acting up I didn't back up so I lost anything
When I tried to put back the original firmware on the phone using Odin for no reason at all will it be installed. It will just stick on Nand writing in the bottom part of the screen and nothing on tp part of the screen that would usually show FIL, PASS etc.
Next thing with some other firmwares the blue loading bar on the phone will go to basically 100% but nothing will happen on the phone
I did get on 2 firmwares, one just kept booting to the Samsung logo then go in a revolving boot sequence with the animation coming up, the other firmware I got on seems like it belonged to some other phone company and after their boot screen comes up and the Samsung's logo come on the screen it will just stay there.
In both cases the phone was left after installation on both screens for hours with no success.
All I want to do is put back on the 4.12 JB T mobile version enter unlock code and give back to my friend
Can I get some assistance please thanks

Take out the battery and post the model number here.
Factory reset to get past the forever spinning Samsung logo. The Odin fails are probably due to incorrect firmware.

You should stick to that forum before someone doesn't read this thread and answers with a link to our firmware which will brick your device.
It should be in there somewhere. Did you read the stickies? Like aerowinder said, all tour future questions need to be posted in that forum. We know very little about your device here.

Well that forum is specifically for your device. Use what you find in this forum and youre destined for a brick.
If you were to ask this question there you would get answers from people who are familiar with the device you have. Ours is very different.

According to this you are working on an International i9300 S3 I will move your thread to the correct forum as to not confuse other users here, or have someone here give you the wrong links to software that may brick your device.
Thread moved.
The op can post what the problem is here please if its an I9300 .
