I was using Odin to root my i777 on my laptop and about half way through the flash process my laptop died on me I had forgot to plug it in. I know stupid move but know I can't even turn my phone on it won't even go into download mode. Please I need help if possible I have read some about using a jig but not for sure it would work on my phone at this point.

I'm pretty sure that thing is HARD BRICKED, mainly cause it powered off during Odin (big no-no). Hopefully I'm wrong and someone else can chime in.
You can always try a jig before giving up

I was trying to install something in BSR and ended up seeing what all the settings did. Now I realize this was a VERY bad idea. My phone only turns on when connected to the charger or pc. I cannot get into RSD to SBF...that is like all I know how to do in case of emergencies. Anyways I can press up for fastboot or down for nvflash...both of which I have no idea how to work and stuff. Plus all I have found on nvflash is with tablets! Is there a way to get out of this or do I need to play dumb and hope I can get a new phone at VZW? Thanks for trying to help in advance...I dont even have the 10 posts to ask in the development forum.
This forum is fine. Fastboot is used to flash. I'm sure since you van get into fastboot there is something you can do. I don't know enough about it to help too much though. Can you get into adb?

Between a small doubt. If mother board is gone. And if the service centre guy send the mother board to the company, will the company guys come to know that it's rooted?

Mere rooting will not destroy the mother board and cannot be held against you even if they can find out which is unlikely. A severe voltage surge perhaps and that can be found out.
Don't give up yet. Pull out the battery, give it a few hours, and reinstall battery and who knows it might be up and running again

..you are of course not going to make an opening speech at the service centre stating that you had rooted your phone etc etc?!Offer prayers to Udupi Lord Krishna and go to the service centre and keep your mouth tightly closed.You will be alright,this is a high-tech phone that cannot die just like that unless of course something else physically was done to it like soaking in water etc...

Hey guys I've been trying to figure out why my rezound ( after root and s-off) has some crappy signal I have 1 bar and low data service almost everywhere but when I'm outside sometimes even then. From what I can collect its because I never installed a new radio or kernal. I'm not exactly sure what they are though or where to download them. ( sorry it may sound stupid but I'm lost at this point and have given up hope) I also saw something that said a radio is in a kernal. I have cyanogen mod 9 right now with the ics update and was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction of a kernal/radio good for my phone. I'm computer savy installing it won't be an issue but I'm just lost as to where to get it. I appreciate the help on this.

This might sound stupid, but after taking the battery cover off to do the S-Off trick, did you make sure it was back on all the way? the antenna for the rezound is on the battery cover.
Check your antenna tabs and make sure there are none broken off or damaged.

This here would mean I could just flash the files over right? I believe my phone came with ics. It is s off and all I did was install cyanogen 9 with CWM. Did those flash new firmware? It may sound dumb but I just wanna make sure.

No. You can only flash firmware with a PH98IMG.zip or an RUU.

Well, I know this has been discussed before, but I didn't find a solution for it. I recently acquired a GSII Skyrocket from a friend. He said it suddenly stopped working- he's pretty wealthy so he just bought an iPhone and gave this thing to me. I'm a Droid Charge user so I'm not new to Samsung devices, but this kind of stumps me.
Anyway when I try to power it on all I get is a pulse vibrate. You can see what happens here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYFc7IMU0pg&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Any suggestions? Do I have to send it in to get it JTAG'd? I'd really like to get this fixed so I can sell it.
Thanks

Bcoz it will brick your device permanently ( your Mobile will not even turn on and there is no chance of recover hard bricked device. )

Hey you mean that you want to brick your device ???
The 1st person is asking this Question .
So to flash radio or hboot .
Search on Google
" HTC one x RUU xda "
Download any of the Rom you like then open that downloaded zip file and take radio.img out of the zip and then put it on the sdcard and flash it through recovery
After that your Mobile will never work.
It will even not boot up....

Why would you want to brick a perfectly working amaze? Donate it to a developer who can do awesome things for this phone (like SebastianFM or ivicask).
This is a waste of time and money in my opinion. You can put a smile on someone's face if you just give a needy person a phone.
If this is for fraud purposes this thread should be closed. Sending a bricked phone back to someone, or even a corporation is like stealing.

Sigh, that's FRAUD! That is simply not right.
This thread should be closed then since it's against XDA rules. :angel:
Seriously?? The ONE S? That phone *ain't* even that great compared to ours lol. No removable battery, only 3 menu buttons, and if the glass cracks you're done. Unless you have 200$ to fix it, which voids the warranty anyway.
But I'm guessing we're too late since he probably got a One S by now and bricked his Amaze.
Someone contact a mod for amaze.
