Well I was flashing a rom last night and I think I bricked my phone. I can receive calls, but I cannot make calls. When I call someone, I get a message stating I cannot make calls because Verizon cannot authenticate my phone. I also have no data and can't go online.
I tried to recover my Fascinate using The Odin & Heimdall methods described here. Neither has worked. I'm not sure how to proceed from this point on. I would greatly appreciate your help.
so after you ODIN'd back to stock, did you try to *228?
or did you only try to make regular calls?
I would ODIN another time just to be sure... if you have another phone lying around, try activating that phone with your current number, get your current phone to stock, then reprogram it w/ *228

Yes I flashed to stock. I have done multiple flashes. I did also try *228. The lovely voice said my phone was successfully activated, but it's still not working.

Hey all,
Alright so i seen the update today for ICS, phone was rooted but stock rom.
During my first update attempt i got a phone call while it said please wait. Phone crashed and couldnt get out of recovery.
So i went home and flashed back to stock using odin. everything worked fine. was prompted again to update so i did.
This time it went through the process but got hung up at the samsung boot screen.
So i tried to flash back to stock again but now once it boots i get a force close on everything.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance!

just seen that you took your sd card or sim card out for this last odin...sd..?
ok,
FC means your old apps are still there cause the fc....? the odin did not clean out the apps....?
you can update to ics via kies? I would put cwm on...go in and wipe all them put phone into download and update thru kies...?
I updated thru kies in download mode....
I am just throwing some ideas out for you....kk

must have been a miscommunication. havent taken it out for any flashs.
cant tell what is installed as far as apps. all i get are the force closes.
ill give the kies a try.
You can fix this
XDA is no longer worth my time.
TimOster said:
It's easy,
Put the phone in download mode with USB NOT connected.
Start Kies
Plug in the USB, don't worry if it's not connected...doesn't need to be..
Go to Tools > Firmware Upgrade and Initialization
This will get the latest version of FW on your phone. It wipes all, but since you are stuck and can't do a backup anyway...just do it.

If you can get to CWM as you say ...
Simply restore a backup.....
If you have one....and if not ....flash a new rom.
If no rom exists ...pull your SD card and use an adapter to put one there from PC...
That's all I've got for tonight ....g
I tried flashing custom recovery and when i rebooted my phone it went into download mode. i tried using the one click odin restore but now its stuck on, "Firmware Upgrade Encountered An Issue. Please Select Recovery Mode In Kies & Try Again" I downloaded Kies and installed drivers and followed instructions but it keeps failing to find my device. Also I am now reading somewhere else that Kies will not solve this issue any way and I still cant find a solution to this problem.
Found a solution here is a link in case anyone else runs into this: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2301259

After i got an ME7 phone i tried using odin to go back to MDK (i was desperate and ignorant) and this happened to me.
You can odin the ME7 stock image and it'll be fine..... but i recommend that you either call or go to a verizon, tell them your problem and they should send you a replacement...... also start praying that what they send you is an MDK
my humble suggestion :silly:
Edit: my bad, go you!

Would it be bad to ask for a replacement with MDK? Just curious, because I'm afraid my GS4 I'm receiving Monday will come with ME7.
You can try but im doubting they will. If it was at a verizon store or best buy generally they dont mind.

Like hexitnow said, if you got ME7 you have nothing to lose (sadly) so feel free to give it a go.
the lady at my verizon store was a witch but they're all different, not a bad idea to try another store if it doesn't work the first time haha

Unless you can get odin to connect then try flashing one of the repackaged stock firmwares using recovery method.

In that case you have a hardware fault, start with the sim reader.

@the_ziom i had the same annoying Refreshing SIM DATA popup until yesterday, i bought my Note 4 unlocked, it came with kitkat, so after flashing lollipop this message started to appear. its annoying for sure and i couldn't find a solid fix on the internet, i even thought i had a faulty device, well, it came to my conclusions that when i was using kikat my problem was gone and after lollipop it started to appear again and again, so what i did i flashed my Kitkat Modem on Lollipop rom, guess what??
ITS GONEEEEE, and im finally happy with my device i have better signal better battery life, its incredible what a modem can cause, well i hope you do the same and PLEASE REPORT BACK, this also helped another friend here on xda who had the same issue, now hes happy too, i hope this fix work for you, cheers:fingers-crossed::highfive:
