After a did a firmware update using USB Burning tool, without no troubles, I want to install other firmware because the accelerometer doesn't work, and so the auto-rotate function (it worked on the old firmware), and I can't get into recovery mode, the home + power function does not work anymore.
I want to use USB Burning tool to reflash the tablet, like the last time, but now I have this problem: when I connect the tablet trough USB cable with the power on, windows recognize the mass storage, but when the power is off, which I need for USB Burning tool, it doesn't do anything. It should show in the bottom-right corner that USB device found, but it doesn't.
I tried this:
1. to hold home-button and then to insert USB... nothing, it just shows the battery charging
2. to hold home+power button... nothing... doesn't enter in recovery mode, it's just loading android system.
3. SD card slot was empty when I tried this.
Does anybody had some king of problems? or know what's the problem?
Please, I need to fix this.
Hi everyone. My phone (i9100) is in this condition:
- brick.
- no charge icon when plug in the AC charger and USB cable.
- pc does not detect any USB device when plug in. (by lsusb command in ubuntu 13.10)
- can not go to download mode, recovery mode.
- nothing happen when press the power button.
I think there is something wrong with the power ic.
What should I do to unbrick it with the lowest cost?
Thank you for any help!
If you want it fixed guaranteed (assuming nothing else is wrong hardware-wise) ? Replace motherboard.
Hello everyone,
I'm writing in the hopes of receiving some guidance re: a small "challenge" a friend issued to me. As you can probably guess, the half of the story that involves my friend's actions on the tablet are word-of-mouth, seeing as the device was given to me in a totally bricked state. Hope you'll be able to assist me somehow!
After using his Galaxy Tab P7500R for some time, the battery stopped charging. He supposedly tried a complete wipe and system restore (for which he was unable to guarantee a successful conclusion), and then the machine ran out of whatever juice had been left behind during the last successful charging cycle, and turned off completely, showing no signs of life whatsoever.
This is where I come in - I was given the "expensive ornament", accompanied by the words "have fun, I've already bought another one".
Symptoms are the following:
1) Powering the device on doesn't work. While the device is connected to the house power grid, there are no indicators of the device doing anything.
2) Connecting the device to a USB port on my laptop, and holding the power button, after 15 seconds my PC signals a device being disconnected via sound, and that disconnection sound is almost immediately followed by a couple, rapid, "halved" 'device connected' sounds. On the other hand, while the device is connected to a USB port on the laptop, if I hold the power button together with volume+, all I hear every 15 or so seconds is the "Device disconnected" sound.
3) After using USBDeview to remove a driver named APX, and after reconnecting the device to the computer via USB (sometimes this requires holding the power button, sometimes all it takes is a reconnection), I will hear a full "device connected" sound; then, an "installing driver" window will open, for the APX driver, which, after looking for the appropriate driver via Windows Update, will give me an error message ("no driver found") on the "unable to install device drivers" window.
4) Opening the device (out of warranty for over a year), and utilizing some testing tools have shown that power does reach as far as the motherboard, and that the batteries are somewhat charged at the moment.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for your help!

[UPDATE 1]: I successfully installed the NVIDIA USB Boot-Recovery drivers for mobile devices. The tablet is now detected as being connected to my laptop, sounds and everything.
Following some instructions I was able to find on these forums, I tried installing NVFlash, and running the --bl bootloader.bin --go, receiving a "Rcm version 0X4 - Command send failed (usb write failed)" message.
From what I gathered, this is evidence of a locked bootloader. I wasn't able to find any posts dealing specifically with a bricked device that is only recognized in APX mode, and how to unlock the bootloader in such cases. Is there a guide available by any chance?
Update 2 :
I've extracted the battery, but I seem to be unable to remove the residual charge, as the device shows up (APX) as connected, as soon as I plug in my USB cable.
Anyone? :/

Chuwi V10HD 3G - The micro USB OTG port stopped working - charging works, but neither the Android or Windows OS recognize any USB devices plugged in to OTG. Have been emailing back and forth with GeekBuying.com post-sales support (seller) for several weeks now. They have been responsive and helpful, but I've still hit a wall.
They want me to flash the Chuwi with the latest firmware, suggesting that the OTG driver may be hosed. But, at some point you encounter the boot screen, and I need to move the highlight over "Boot Manager" icon and launch Boot Manager.
But I can't plug in a keyboard or mouse because OTG won't work. And no OS has booted - so touch screen doesn't work. And this micro USB port is the only USB port on the V10HD.
Support wants me to find someone who is comfortable with the flashing process - but how would that person launch Boot Manager without a keyboard or mouse?
I've heard that more recent Intel CPUs have a capability to let a remote PC stay connected during the entire boot process - but I don't think that works for these Broadwell CPUs. Is there any software I can install that would let me control this process remotely?
Can anyone help?
I seem to have gotten my N200 in a state where it will not power on. No screen display, no vibrations, and unresponsive to volume and power buttons (standalone or combination). It's a DE2118, T-Mobile variant, network locked and not rooted.
Here are the conditions leading up to it:
The phone was plugged in to my PC via USB, (through a USB hub).
My Sim/SD tray was ejected.
I had been using an ADB shell to disable-user some apps and check out some various PM commands.
I did not terminate the ADB shell before powering down from the phone.
Once powered off, I held the volume up+volume down+power buttons to attempt to check out the recovery mode. I've never entered recovery mode before on this device.
The USB cable was still plugged in and I could hear the USB new device sounds on my PC a few times while I did this but didn't think anything of it.
Nothing ever appeared on the screen and pushing any of the buttons seem to provide no response.
Battery usage was at least 80%, if not closer to 90% before this happened.
It almost seems like the device is powered on and running as there feels like there's some very slight warmth on the back panel, near the center just under the camera area but I might just be imagining the warmth.
I'm aware that it needs to be network unlocked before it can be rooted as per other threads and I have not tried any root methods.
I still have my ADB shell dialog up but there really isn't much interesting in it besides a lot of the command help dialog.
What are my options?
Note: I recently installed the Jan 6th android 11 security update maybe a day before.
Edit: For anyone looking at this later, the phone came back after a complete battery drain and partial recharge and I was able to replicate the bricked state performing the same thing, usb debugging on, plugged in to usb hub on pc, shut down phone, then holding all 3 buttons down for a while.
Windows or Linux pc?
Does your device show up in device manager if windows?
If Linux, do you see the device if you run
adb devices or fastboot devices?

I'm using Windows 7 mainly.
It shows up in device manager when I plug in the USB but with error code 28, unknown driver.
In Win7, "adb devices" lists a blank line for devices.
In Linux, "adb devices" lists a blank line for devices.
In Linux, "fastboot devices" has no output at all.
If your phone is showed in device manager you should be able to give him his life back...had the same situation long time ago with my oppo find 7..
Try this, and see if it'll recognize you for MSM download.

Will give it a try. Going to be a few hours to DL the file as I'm on an extremely slow connection atm.
Well, I think that made it worse. Couldn't get the Qualcomm CAB drivers working on Windows 7, but got it through Windows Update. The MSM tool went through the process fully but afterward I unplugged the device and tried to boot, still no response, nothing on screen, no vibration. Now when I plug my device back in to the USB, I have an endless new usb device noise and windows says "Unknown Device". Device manager refreshes constantly while its plugged in. Looking back I should have probably tried ADB first before running the MSM tool.
After almost 24 hours of being unplugged, I tried plugging it in again and it finally had some signs of life with the low battery warning and then TMobile splash screen+vibration+sound after about 5 minutes. Still waiting on it to charge up for now. Probably just needed to be power cycled in the end instead of attempting to flash anything. I sure do miss the days of removable batteries.

In the future, you can power cycle the device by holding all three buttons on the phone for 30 seconds while it isn't plugged into a PC.

I had tried that yesterday to no avail. Was very strange. Everything seems to be working as normal now, though factory reset from running the MSM tool. I'm wondering if I'd be able to duplicate the issue again.
Could not replicate with USB debugging off and plugged directly in to my PC's USB port, but turning on USB debugging and plugging in to my USB hub, shutting down the phone, and then power cycling with all three buttons brought the same bricked state.
Don't know for sure if the USB port matters but while bricked plugging in to the USB hub always gives a USB device error sound. Going directly on PC it connects fine as a new device (as QUSB_BULK without drivers or Qualcomm HS USB QDLoader 9008 with drivers). ADB/Fastboot commands from PC's command line don't seem to do anything.
I did notice the fastboot menu show up on screen for a second when power cycling this time and I don't recall it appearing the first time. I think i may have had "advanced reboot" turned on the first time, while it was off this time.
Powercycling actually reset it this time.
Possible solution
It would seem that you can force MSM to write both a and b slots, which might fix your issue. Might be worth a shot
Note: If this swaps you to the Tmobile software, there's no guarantee you'll have anything but a phone that cannot be bootloader unlocked again. Since unlocked have no unlock token, trying to do so with a phone that isn't technically Tmobile may be an issue.
Just had the same problem. Holding all buttons for 30 seconds worked.
if you bricked it and you have tmobile variant you can restore it weather you have a locked or unlocked bootloader.
you have to get your phone in EDL mode, once in EDL mode you will see the "QUSB_BULK_CID" in device manager. you will then need to install qualcomm drivers (if done manually you will have to endable windows test mode, if you use the qualcomm USB driver installer then it will do it for you and you will be in test mode upon next windows reboot.) Reboot windows in TEST MODE. NOTE: i said WINDOWS TEST MODE... Once in windows test mode the driver should function and look normal in device manager. From there just open the MSM tool for your version of Nord N200 and flash and wait about 3-5 minutes. Reboot the phone and you are back in Oxygen OS.
Tips and extra Files needed below:
for the tmobile NORD N200 MSM tool
Index of /list/Unbrick_Tools/OnePlus_Nord_N200
The installer for the QUALCOM USB drivers can be found here at this website (ONLY use the QUALCOMM drivers from here, do not use any other file as it is for a different phone):
droidwin.com/unbrick-oneplus-7-pro/
once done unbricking and restoring your phone you can then exit windows test mode by running
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING OFF
at the windows command prompt as ADMINISTRATOR.
