It was for GT-I8552, not for GT-I8552B.
Check if it turns on in download mode.
Vol. down + power + home
If yes, then download the official firmware for GT-I8552B
http://nasirtech.blogspot.in/2014/02/i8552bdcuana1-android-412-jelly-bean.html
flash it via Odin
unfortunately he does not care in download mode or in recovery mode, there is the possibility of this process have burned the motherboard? or other method to revive the phone as JTAG?
Then it's probably a hard-brick.

GT-I8552 and GT-I8552B are the same. It has the 'B' in countries such as Brazil, Panama and others.

If you can't boot into download mode, I think you should contact a service center for assistance to your device.
Use ur warranty in this case

May this serve as a lesson for people messing around with DD command. I don't mean to be harsh on OP but, messing around with the console it's extremely dangerous for inexpert hands.
EDIT: I'll post a thread with the Partition Information Table for the Grand Quattro / Win, that will shed a bit more light on what partitions to use when DD'ing files.

I'd rather recommend taking your phone to Samsung Service Center, or to a professional, buying a box just for fixing your phone one time or two, doesn't pay out, they're usually expensive enough for an individual who will use them occasionally.
However, you might want to try first googling how to build a USB Jig, this *might probably* work out for you, if the Mainboard is not dead at all, an USB Jig will allow you to enter directly to download mode.
There are guides here in XDA on how to build one, they're inexpensive and easy to build. You might also want to buy a pre-built one, but it'll be a lil more expensive and I wouldn't pay that much for a resistor and a Micro-USB connector

I was using ShishirRom (ICS) since a week. Today I was trying to flash CM9-Stable-Version in the morning. And 2 major problems occurred.
1. While I was transferring the CM-9-Stable-Version file to my phone, I was checking out the ROM Manager (I know you hate me already!!) and I pressed the Backup Current ROM Button instead of the back button on my phone. (**** Im stupid ) But wait there is more!
2. While I was finally able to get into Download Mode after 30 minutes of fiddling and was trying to flash via Odin to return to Stock and start all over again, my dear a$$hole friend pulled the plug while the Odin was in progress. (Yes, I am having one of those worst days)
Current situation: Phone does not boot-up - means NO ODIN RECOGNITION / NOT RECOGNIZED BY LAPTOP / NO DOWNLOAD-MODE / NO RECOVERY-MODE / NO CWM.
I have been googling about ADB and how to use it, but honestly I have not found on a How-to. I have read that ADB can reboot the phone into Download Mode or Recovery Mode, but I don't know how to use it. I don't know how to use ADB does not mean I didn't google it. I just couldn't find a guide to use it in my situation. If you can, please send me a link
May The Force Be With You! And may you help me search my answer! \m/
Ok so this might look dumb of me, but I am desperate here. I know its a weekend, and everybody is drunk. And probably I am the only lonely trying to figure out what the hell is ADB!
I look up to this site and the developers here. And I shouldn't, but I have, started expecting from all of you knowledgeable individuals. I would be hurt to be let down. Please help!
Thank you everyone in advance.
Not sure if this is what you're looking for but worth checking out.

It's likely that you overwrote the partition that contained the download mode firmware.
You will probably have to send the phone to LG to get it fixed.
I have tried to contact the author of that article with information to fix it and a warning about how he's caused a bunch of people to hard brick their phones, but who knows if he even cares.

I bought LG Optimus L5 E610 few months but i rooted it just few days ago. After i rooted it i installed ROM Manager and installed CWM but my device was not in the lost so i selected LGE Optimus M+ (idk why). Then a friend of mine told me about the "cool app" Beats Audio Installer and i installed it. After i rebooted the phone the speaker started making crazy sounds. I read in the app's site that i have to install a ROM to restore the original sound driver. I decided to install the stock ROM from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1790342 but when i tried to install it it asked me to boot in recovery mode and i accepted. After it restarted it showed this " Secure booting error! cause: boot certification verify. Now I want to restore it to its original state but i don't know how so please help me fast.
Read this, to install the correct CWM for your phone (you'll have to download the .img yourself):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1827723
Then, boot to recovery & flash your fixes from there.
Alternatively, you can use the KDZ flasher to restore to pure stock.

Use this to download your original firmware.
Use this guide to flash it with the KDZ updater.
When it's done, you'll be back to stock ROM, and all your data will be gone. Don't play with your computer or have anything else running, because if your computer freezes during the flash (or you remove your phone's battery) your phone will be hard-bricked.
If you would rather save your data & only flash CWM onto the recovery partition, you need to find & download the .img or .zip file of CWM which was made for your phone, then flash it using Android Flash Recovery.

If your phone is only soft bricked LG will easily be able to tell you rooted it and "installed unauthorized software" on your phone and they very likely won't honor your warranty or offer to fix it. JTAG essentially allows you to restore your phone to its original condition if you have a brick or some soft bricks. What they do is they take apart the back of the phone so they can access the JTAG pads, they then solder wires to the JTAG pads. Next when a connection had been established they hook up the wires to a riff box using a ribbon cable, they then attach a cable from the riff box to the computer. From here they use a special program called Riff Box JTAG manager, to resurrect your device (Restore bootloader, etc.). After that they flash the original firmware that came with your device and your phone should work again.
For more information on JTAG check out these links and video.

Word of warning: Technically deliberating bricking your phone and getting an insurance replacement is fraud and is a federal offense. The right thing to do would be to bring it and attempt to explain your situation (Or you could play dumb, and maybe they'll help you again they won't be happy and you could be in trouble if they figure out your lying) there is a possibility they will fix it for a reasonable price. In the end you unfortunately might have to buy a new phone,

Unless you know what your doing you could destroy your phone to the point of it being beyond unbrickable, if LG says they won't repair it for you look online for a local shop in your area that's reputable and knows how to JTAG phones back to life.
Hello,
My Samsung Galaxy S2 is bricked. No way to enter download or recovery mode. Black screen... nothing to do to fire it.
Probably the bootloader is corrupted.
Does exist a tool for Exynos 4210 / S5PC210 like the one from Adam Outler "Unbrickable" for Exynos 3110 / S5PC110 ?
Thank you,
Guillaume
Ps. no need to answer about JIG, it doesn't work in this case of figure. JTAG tools exist... Yes I know! thank you BUT needs to solder a tiny tiny JTAG connector... and I don't own a RIFF JTAG Box nether a schematic of JTAG pinpoints on Galaxy S2 mother board...
No way you can fix it. Take it someone who does JTAG repairs or get the MB replaced.

I flashed it longtime ago to ICS 4.03 / rooted with ODIN v3 - no problem at all.
Few weeks ago it crashed during firefox update... I reboot it, it crashed during the boot. I reboot it again and it got bricked!
That's nice, it just died on you?
Warranty is generally for two years...maybe there's still hope for you.

Hello,
Sound great!
GT-I9100 is Exynos based while GT-i9100G is OMAP4430 based... so could be very different
Also I already tried without success but I'm going to test it again with the latest Samsung drivers...
Can you tell me what you exactly done with your phone and PC / Odin? (did you press the magic fingers?)
ODIN connection was GREEN?

No, the phone is hard bricked BUT it was flashed and rooted BEFORE. So I cannot change anything now...

Exactly.
I won't tell them if you won't
JTAG might be your last resort, good luck

I found a RIFF JTAG Box near me but I think I'm going to buy a generic JTAG controler and fix it...
Or send my phone back to Samsung asking them why a phone suddently brick without any reasons...

Our phone suffering of eMMC bugbrick trouble
NEVER try to wipe data on a eMMC brickbug! (with ROM and kernel NOT safe, 4.04...)
It will hard brick your phone... (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756242)

Ps. If you find a way with JTAG, I'm interesting cause my phone is still vulnerable.
If you find a way to setup boot sequence to USB I'm very interesting! (the best should be to contact Adam Outler, Rebellos and this seems too interesting http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916796)

Hmm i think you Should try to flash Clockworkmod recovery using Research download...
i hope it will work for you... Once if you succeeded and clockworkmod booted you can do anything!
1st i have to mention that i have never used Research download but i did quite a research on it!
2nd i can not give guarantee that it will work! but do hope that it will work :silly:
Now lets start!
it has been reported that ResearchDownload drivers will not work with windows 7 or 8 you will need windows xp you can also install windows xp in Oracle VM VirtualBox once you got hand on xp you can try this!
1: download all these attached files to move forward :angel:
2: install spreadturm drivers
now before you flash your phone with researchDownload you should know that it can change you phone's IMEI number SO BE AWARE!!!
So i will suggest you to read this post

GT-S7262
Hard bricked and not detecting device too..
Plzzz help me..
Seems Like HArd Bricked<Plz help>
Hi,
Let me first state the story behind the issue. Two days ago my Samsung S7262 got restart issue as it was not booting and was stucking in the first screen.The Phone was getting heated....Later,I tried to hard reset which did not work,so I went on flushing the ROM.Now, I am very new to this and did not have any prior expertise in it. I used Odin v3 and go Flash File from a site for India(I live in India) and tried to flash the ROM. It got completed but I still faced the issue. Then again I flashed once again which Pass ed too,but again the boot loop issue persist.Now, this time I picked another flash file from another site which was relatively larger and it was too for India. This time I tried to flash...after Pass the phone got hanged and I mistakenly removed the USB and then no display was there and it was looking like a brick!!! Later I researchd and now I repent had I went to service centre instead of applying my wicked engineering mind .Now, after much research, I found that now the phone is detected by PC's device manager but no display and still have that looping issue(I know this bcoz I am able to hear booting sound)...Plz help!!!
I had got my samsung galaxy star pro soft bricked and started to reserch about unbrick
But afraid of going ahead without true guide .
Any one plese help me.
I need complete guide with every single step.
