Well, I upgraded my android device from CM-9.1.0 to CM-10.1-20130102-NIGHTLY just to try it, and i find a lot of bugs on it, so I downgraded the phone, and when it almost finished, the phone just won't started, so I tried to load CWM Recovery with help of this post (I should have read the comments...): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1814801 because I just could enter download mode.
So, my phone got bricked, well at least I think that, because it won't turn on, and my PC won't recognize my phone (nor in the Device Manager). I have tried removing the battery and the SIM card, connect it to a PC hold Volume Up + Down and insert the battery, and it neither works :c.
It's a Hard Brick or a soft one? do you think that i should try this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=lojU5bvGz3c Please help! :c
Well, the problem might be that you flashed a ROM for an i9100 and this is the forum for the i777. Either you have the wrong phone or the wrong ROM. If you do indeed have an i9100 I hope your underwear are flame retardant because it is going to get warm up in here.

I don't think that the USB Jig would work, because it is totally dead, so i'm going to send it to MobileTechVideos, and hope they can fix it.
Thanks everyone

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.

Hello XDA,
I was trying to flash CM9 on my Samsung Galaxy S2, was running Stock ICS XWLP7, successfully flashed it, proceeded to CWM and Wipe Data/Factory Reset unaware of the eMMC Brick Bug, went away during the wipe process, as I came back, I saw that the phone was completely bricked. Download/Recovery Modes don't work, Odin doesn't recognize anything, can't charge phone, the phone is cold and dead. Jig or JTAG don't work either.
btw. I can't get it replaced.
1. Is this the infamous superbrick?
2.If yes, what can I do about it? If no, what is it?
Yes, looks like you've encountered the infamous superbrick
The only way to revive a superbricked phone is to send it to Samsung service center.

Actually it's not my device, it belongs to a friend of mine, he gave it to me to fix it yet I couldn't do it
He can't get it replaced because his warranty is over.
Do your friend had warranty ?

Then he needs to pay for a motherboard replacement, simple as that.
Also, by the way, why did you create this thread when we already have plenty of this exact topic? You could have diagnosed this easily by looking at one or more of the threads we already have without creating yet another one and waiting for same answers.
Is it insured under home insurance or bank/credit card? Otherwise it's buy a new phone or send back to Samsung for repair and pay. Good luck.

Because all the fixes were like, flash X from Odin, but the phone doesn't get recognized by Odin.
The phone was bought from Germany, Samsung Turkey refuses to replace it, it must be sent to Germany for replacement.(if possible)

And in those cases the devices were never actually "bricked" at all, those were just n00bs who couldn't fix their system boot problem and like to describe their device as "soft-bricked". In your case your device is actually "bricked" what the n00bs call "hard-bricked" when in reality their is only "bricked". If you can flash via odin or recovery your device is not bricked.
In your case you wiped your device with a buggy kernel (which has been discussed at length as I said) and only option is mobo replacement.
so i have a few questions
,first off im not a noobie on the flashing, rooting,unlocking etc , my friend flashed the wrong rom to this phone it appears to have suffered from a hard brick just due to its unresponsiveness. I was wondering if the bootloader files or some sort of files have to be on an sdcard and be placed inside of the phone for a jig to properly work. i ask this because if the phones bootloader is corrupted how is it going to boot any other way. Im trying to avoid this jtagging thing. Any ideas would be helpful or references would also be appreciated.
yes i have a jig, yes ive tried the recovery button, yes i have odin, i also have a external battery charger, etc etc :fingers-crossed:

I tried flashing a kernel through CWM running on JB 4.3 stocked rooted, just got the phone a week ago. Nothing will work, no recovery, no download, I tried using Win32 disk img flasher, didn't work.
I green!
Without download mode you will need a usb jig or jtag. Sounds like you probably flashed the wrong file to get that effect, in which case you do have a hard brick.
