[Q] stock build for telus fascinate 3g+ (sgh-t959d)

hi there, i've searched and searched and cannot for the life of me find any stock roms or anything for the telus fascinate it probably doesn't help that I don't know what the build number is... I flashed a verizon vibrant rom quite a while ago and don't remember my methods of doing so, I've read that it's going to be a huge PITA to get it back to stock, especially because I can't seem to get it into ^&%^*% recovery mode or even get it to connect to my pc.. so any help in that regard will also be MUCH appreciated
THANK YOU in advance.. I hope!
Alright so i managed to find an all in one zip file in a tutorial post obvs i didn't look hard enough lol!
So that just leaves me with the more important predicament. I can't get my phone into recovery mode to flash with odin and my pc won't connect to the pc at all.. I read somewhere that my phone is soft-bricked???? Because of using a vibrant Rom? Any input is greatly appreciated once again
P.s can a mod change the title? Or can i? Because its slightly irrelevant to the post now

Can you link the All in One ODIN you are talking about?
I sure can here it is
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=923712
coincidentally this is also the exact procedure i followed when I rooted and flashed.
so a little more information for you.
sorry about the reply taking forever i couldn't find the post on my phone and haven't had much time to sit on the computer

Says your phone model is GT i9000 so you probably flashed a gti9000 rom (Bell Vibrant / international Galaxy S).
Anyway... you need to be in "download mode" to flash via odin. I think you meant phone to pc, but were you able to connect your phone to the pc before? Do you have the correct drivers installed?
You know you're in soft-bricked if when you turn on the phone, you get a picture of a phone to pc with a ! in between. This can be fixed by a USB jig, or for some, just doing the download mode button combination while your battery is out and your usb is plugged into the computer.
What rom did you install exactly?
Yes i realise that i suppose that's what i meant but odin doesn't pick up my phone and my pc won't either. I used to be able to connect yes but now it won't I have the drivers downloaded i havent had the chance to try a different cord but this is the same cord i used to flash, so im pretty sure that's not the problem.
I guess its not soft bricked then i haven't seen anything like what you have described,
The Rom im using is called EXTRAordinary Rom or something like that ill try and find a link for you

Bump? This is a serious issue for me as my Bluetooth is not working and things are constantly force-closing...

If you have gotten your phone into download mode and your pc isn't recognizing it, you should; 1 - try a different pc, 2 - try a different cable or 3 - try both. Are you still able to get it into download mode?
Ughh I've tried every computer in my house, 3 laptops and one desktop...
My personal laptop is the only one it worked on previously, it now doesn't work, and I only have the original cable i did the flashing with originally, but i'll yoink a cable from work tomorrow do test that out, although I am seriously doubting it would work... my widgets have recently stopped working as well, they say "problem loading widget" I'm pretty scared by this point and feel as though my phone is sloooowly hardening into a useless brick. i'll update tomorrow, when I get a new cable.
um also, I've posted this question in a different thread but have yet to be answered, why can't I find the telus usb drivers anywhere? they don't have it on samsung's website,,, i haven't installed any drivers since the original flashing and have no clue as to where to find them... as far as I could remember it was ridiculously easy to find them last time....
Thanks in advance,
Antoine
try installing samsung kies-worked for me once

[q] help please !!!

Hi im new with galaxy s 5.0 . And today i tried to root it with odin and i made a mistake and now my galaxy s 5.0 wont boot. What should i do now ?
Please help me ! Thanks !
Use "samfirmware" to flash your device with the stock firmware.
I cant even turn on my phone or go to download mode or recovery. Its totally dead. And there is just when i connect galaxy to pc it says installing some driver ! and at the end it wont install . i need to send my galaxy to samsung to fix it or there is solution i can make on my own ? please help !
Does it show anything on your screen at all when you hold down the power button?
Any icons at all?
Perhaps a picture of a Cellphone and a desktop PC with an X in the middle of it?
Also post your exact model number of your device. It should be located underneath your battery.
Thanks for help !
No i dont have any icons. And now i saw i must UnBrick it. So i installed ubuntu on my pc and i UnBricked my Galaxy s 5.0 and now it is in download mode. But Galaxy 5.0 must stay connected all time to stay in download mode. And i saw i must do something with Heimdall and i really dont know how to use it. I dont know how to use .deb file on ubuntu.
So i think i just need to flash it with Heimdall because there is no Odin for linux. But nobody wants to help me.
i have Galaxy s 5.0 YP-G70CB
I believe that hemidall is also made for windows. I have never used hemidall though. Only Odin. I think the next step is to find the correct firmware for your device. I see lots of YP-G70 firmwares, but I noticed your model is YP-G70CB. I don't know what the CB stands for I'm afraid.
Also with your model number, is that the full model number shown behind the battery? Is there something like YP-G70CB/XEH or something after the forward slash. Or does it just say YP-G70CB and thats it? I am trying to see if I can find the right firmware for you, if it exists.
Behind the battery are just that numbers. U can find me a firmware but i cant install it. Beacuse my Galaxy 5.0 now is in download mode and im on linux and i must run Heimdall to flash it with a some frimware. But i am having troubles to installing Heimdall Frontend. So i just can watch my galaxy and do nothing
If you can get the Player into download mode now it should work with Odin.
In fact, at the moment Heimdall won't work (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1511624)
You just need the right firmware files and then you should be able to flash it with Odin.
I'm guessing you have the international version and not the USA version of the device, if so you probably want to download one of the firmwares in this thread:

Yeah i have the Galaxy in the download mode but how u dont understand. I UnBricked my Galaxy on Ubuntu (linux) and now i must to flash it but i cant do it with Odin because Odin is not for linux. But i have Ubuntu and Win 7 on my pc. I restarted my pc and i went to Win 7 and i was opening Odin but odin didnt recognize my galaxy and dont know why but it was in download mode. And if i disconnect usb cable download mode turns off and i cant turn it on again because i must use program from Ubuntu http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1257434.
I have problem with this -------> S5PC110. And its black screen on my galaxy always... So i can only turn it on with UnBrick program from Ubuntu and then. I thnik there are 2 or 3 more steps that i cant do !
Im trying this whole day and nothing..
relax man,i had the same problem as you do and i fixed it and now my device is working just fine.there is a guide in XDA forum (link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1496360)
just do what the guide said and everything is gonna be alright.
for any questions you can ask me because i got myself into hard brick too.
but just for you to know it might take you couple of days.
it took me 6 days to understand and to succeed to run programs on linux (with people that know linux well).
but i will try to help you as much as i could
Thanks man.
I will try this tomorrow i cant do it anymore. I am trying this all day. But thanks very much for this. I think this gonna work ! Just tell me something i think that first step isnt that hard but how 6 days?? lol i cant imagine 6 days without galaxy i think i will do that all day tomorrow. Just to make it work ! I will send u a message if i need something. and i will tell u when im done ! Thanks !

I managed to put the files I will ned for the other rom onto my phone with airdroid but how the heck can I either
1. fix the USB issue
or
2. Install the other Rom without using Odin via PC ..

There is adb in TWRP, you can just push the files over to the sdcard.
adb push xxxx.xxx /sdcard where xxxx.xxx is your files.
But I can't tell from your post if you have lost ADB and fastboot driver in Windows 8. Or don't you have a miniSD converter you can plug into a PC?
Yeah dude
i dont have an adapter but i just orderd one from ebay. yes i cant get my computer to install the right driver.. but thats cus its soft brickd. im assuming once i put the stock rom on the sdcard and flash it in twrp and then swipe to reboot or whatever im guessing its gonna be back to stock n working... so then i will just re-root it at that point and be extra careful.. see this all started because i got poweramp and the unlocker and lucky patch and busy box and something else and patched it n followed some info on youtube because i wanted poweramp full cus its siiick. then it out of nowhere started saying trail has expired.. it said that before and after i patchd stuff for weeks it worked fine.. o well next time im not gonna b careful not to delete my google play right after i deleted my browser.

How to make a full data reset when the tablet don't want to turn on ?

Hello guys !
I was wondering what I could do of my old Touchpad, and I realized I could install Android on it. But I made, way before, some manipulations on it to install Android, and it seems that the tablet don't want to turn on... I tried to make the Home+VolUp+Power Button combo but it does anything, so I'm a little bit confused of what to do, since I don't expect my tablet to be dead now...
I would really be happy if someone could help me !
Ok... To be totally honest, I searched for hours, trying to find a solution, and the most interessting one was that I needed, or to find a way to launch ACMEuninstaller2 and my Touchpad (I've got a unable to find device error), or to install ubuntu to use tpdebrick... The thing is that I don't have any laptor that I can use to install ubuntu on, so I'm really lost... I don't know what to do, the drivers don't want to get installed, my TP can't get in USB mode, and my computer don't recognize the tablet... I really don't know what to do, so I'm really begging you to help me in any way you can ! I would marry you if you could fix those problems I have.

The answer is in there. Search is your friend.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=453336055
EDIT: Well that link is useless, isn't it? Try this
Thank you.
I searched and realized that I needed to put my tablet in WebOS recovery mode, the thing is that making the handling just make nothing appear... My screen is completly black, there's just a little white led when I plug my tablet to my PC, but it's all.... So I can't do anything, but I can force the tablet shutdown, that's a good news I imagine. Now, I'm stuck, and I don't know what to do...
