Bricked S5 any chance of saving? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5

Never rooted this phone before, was just trying to reset the phone. I did factory reset through recovery mode and now I get the white tmobile screen and blue led screen and it just hangs and the phone gets super hot.
Is there anyway to recover this phone to factory settings or is it dead now? I don't really get what I did wrong.
At one point i was in download mode and it said it was downloading something but my battery fell out so idk if thats what messed it up but i've tried several resets since and it keeps hanging.

buttons stay lit all the time

so recently my htc hd2 started having problems.. the bottom 4 buttons seem to stay lit 24/7 when the phone is on even when in standby how can i make the phone go back to how it used to be ? i tried soft reset nothing..
Did you pull the battery? Hard reset?
yes i pulled battery and also did a factory reset , still does it. starting to think phone is defective as nothing i do will fix this problem. any advice? my phone is under warranty and i have insurance on it

optimus t lcd keeps dying once it goes to sleep

ok, i got my optimus t back from lg a couple days ago after i bricked it and right when i turned it on it was having problems. it turns on, loads and all that good stuff but once the screen goes to sleep i try to awake it and only the buttons light up and the lcd stays off until i do a battery pull. plugging the phone into my charger, putting the battery back inside and turning it on lets the phone start as usual but once the lcd goes to sleep it never comes back on again.
what should i do? i think i only did one factory reset so far and i have reflashed it to the stock firmware to see what that would do but it hasn't fixed anything. should i do another factory reset AND reformat the sd card since i only did a factory reset the first time? i'm hoping someone has seen this before and can help me with fixing the problem.
this happens to the phone regardless of whether the phone is rooted or unrooted.

it seems to be a harware issue just flash stock and give it back to lg and ask for a service or swap for a new phone stating its not functioning properly

i had the phone a couple weeks before i bricked it and i never had these problems with the hardware. after i posted the original post i was able to somehow get my phone in emergency mode. actually, the first thing i did was remove my sd card and reformat it on my computer (backed up everything on dropbox and my computer). i tried to flash my phone and the problem showed up when the screen turned off during the flash. i spent a couple minutes getting it back into emergency mode and was able to get it flashed to the stock ROM without it getting stuck. then i did a factory reset and the problem is still occurring. i'm thinking about updating to 2.2.2 if i can actually get back into the OS one more time and then see what happens. if i can't do either then i'm going to have to call LG again and hopefully they will hook me up with a replacement or repair it somehow.
thank god i bought a new nexus one yesterday ($260) so that should be here monday or tuesday to hopefully tide me over until the nexus 3 so the optimus will become my backup.

[Q] Problem after installing Jedi Mind Trick X1

So ive been using JMT since the v8 and ive never had a problem before. One night i decided to get the X1 and everything seemed to well..the next day i was chargin my phone and i noticed that the phone was off, the chargitng icon was not showing.
I turned to phone on and it would go halfway the splash screen and then it would go black.. then it would start vibrating the way it vibrates when u turn the phone on and it just does that. I tried doing a battery pull but everything that i put in the battery the phone turns on automaticly.
Ive tried going to recovery but it just wont go in. PC doesnt detect the phone and it looks like theres a 5 second gap before the phone does the same hthing over and over.
I dont know what to do because the phone doesnt let me do anything.No recovery,no nothing.
could somebody help me please?
what can i do!? any other ways to totally erase the whole phone! even if i have to fry the motherboard so i could get a replacement lol! but i dont want to do that tho that would be my last solution
it looks like you may need a jtag to fix the phone, it seems that the X1 may have bricked your phone.

S3 4G wont start up

Hi guys im not sure where to post this so im just going to post it here. My s3 got stuck on the boot up samsung galaxy s3 screen so i pulled the battery out and restarted the phone and now it doesnt start up at all its stuck on this static screen i cant get to recover mode but i can get to download mode i was just wondering what the problem might be and if there is a way to fix the phone? I have attached a photo to show you what it looks like.
That's extremely odd. I've personally have had an issue with my old phone with the startup with it giving me a "Fail error", but I can suggest that when it does that, keep the battery out for 10-20 minutes to make sure it stays off. Then put it back in and turn on the phone and see what it does. If that doesn't work I suggest you just either send it in for a new phone or have someone look at it.
ive tried leaving the battery out overnight and still nothing could it be a corupt firmware issue because the phone was playing up before hand for a couple days where it would just freeze and would need to be turned off and on, so i did a full reset cleared everything through recovery mode.

[Q] Phone suddenly switched off and not turning on

Today I just wanted to uninstall Temple Run from my Moto E. I followed the standard procedure and suddenly as I dropped the icon in the uninstall menu, the Motorola boot icon appeared and the phone switched off. I tried to boot it into fast bootloader but nothing happened. I dont really know what has happened with my phone since the notification LED is blinking randomly even though the screen and everything else is not working. When I tried calling my phone number it says phone switched off. What has happened with my phone? What can I do so that my can start again
Try holding Power+vol up+vol down together for 10+ seconds.
If it doesn't boot up, connect it to the charger for a few hours and try again.
That too is not working I guess it is hard bricked and I will have to take it to the service center. I failed to understand though how an unrooted phone with stock rom could possibly get so damaged just with normal usage. Although the possibility of a virus is very less could it be the reason?
