Hello, so I upgraded to the nexus 5 and sold my phone to a friend yesterday. He claims that he has not deleted anything and that is froze and just stopped working.
I have the phone connected to my computer where the phones LED notification light is red but will not turn on or even boot into recovery. My computer isn't recognizing it as a device either.
Nexus 4
CM11 (latest update)
recovery is CWM
I don't no if anyone knows whats wrong and can give me a fix or even whats wrong what may have caused this.
and if its bricked how to unbrick it if possible?
thanks for you help in advance guys. :fingers-crossed:

i brick 2 samsung s2 i9100 now help
i have jig but i can't go in downloading mode help
If it was a normal software update with a firmware that was not rooted and you still have warranty left, you should bring the phone to the shop where you bought it. They will fix it.

Did you try a battery pull then turn on your phone and immediately hold the 3 (button combo vol up + home + power)? Also what caused this problem?
not work

Are you sure you have I9100 phones, and not I9100G phones?
Check the label under your batteries.
I9100 firmwares and kernels do not work on I9100G, and vice versa.

Get into download mode and flash a stock firmware from www.sammobile.com. Make sure you have the i9100 and not I9100G model.
And make sure you know what you're doing before you do anything. It seems like you don't have a clue if you are missing up two phones.

Phone will not boot, full brick. Anyone know how to remove the internal memory chip from the board and know of a device that can read it?
How did you manage this? A bit of information might be useful.
Thanks.

Flashed the omega rom and it just killed my phone.
No download mode
no recovery.
Not even a charging led light.

This might be helpful for taking the phone apart and working out what's what.

I would assume the chip would need some specialist equipment to read it though :/
Donate it to Adam outler for testing his unbrickable mod.
Bad luck dude.

Maybe its just dead and charging is broken? Worth trying an external charger or friends device to make sure, that really is bad luck I hope to get this phone but I wont be diving into roms until I'm sure this won't happen :/

Note + Don't blame the ROM, it is ALWAYS the USER, as it was your choice. Nobody made you try flash it!
Is your device a international I9300 or I9300T model?
What did you mean exactly "Phone will not boot", stuck at samsung logo? or phone just won't power on?
try usb jib for S3. you should be able to go to yellow download icon mode and then flash back the old stock rom again.

There was one time when I was able to get the LED on while plugged in to the PC, maybe that was it .I really hope that was it but Odin did not see it.

I just want to be clear on the state of the phone. Does it have any charge left? Can you access the download screen? If you can access the download screen you can just use Odin to flash your original ROM back.
(Hold power button and volume down button at the same time until the phone vibrates. Then let go of the power button but keep holding the volume down until the download screen pops up.)

Any luck? If so I just had a thought.
My phone the I717R (Rogers) in Canada can't use Samsung Kies to restore the phone.
However if your phone is the ATT version and it can enter download mode you should be able to use Samsung Kies to restore to factory settings.
You'll just need to enter firmware upgrade and initialization I'm pretty sure it's called. Then you'll type in the model and serial number found under the battery and Kies will do the rest.

Did you install Samsung KIES first? It should automatically install the driver you need.
Also when you put it in to download mode do it while the phone is unplugged, then plug the phone in.
Let us know what happens, sure we'll figure it out.

Try this link.
That's from the Samsung site for the I717 driver only. See if your computer picks up your phone after installing that.
If that doesn't work you may just want to use ODIN. I'll tell you everything you'd need to know to do that just don't have time ATM.
Have you tried another USB port and or cable?

that sucks, sorry to hear that. i would start fresh and uninstall the sammy drivers reboot the comp afterwards, reinstall drivers reboot once again, put the device into download with out firing up odin and see if that will help. I've noticed this device can be a bit finicky when it comes to drivers or maybe we are a few of the unlucky ones lol. I too have been having drivers issues lately regarding mtp and its been driving me nuts.
