tell your stories, have you ever bricked or partially bricked a phone/s, say how, and what kind of device
I halfbricked my HD7S while trying to flash HSPL without downgrading the bootloader first, which bricked the boot loader, but the rest of the phone is functional, and now I'm stuck with stock rom
You know the story with my desire.. a small accident resulted into the phone falling from 1.5m height on the floor. Then it booted only once. when i tried to take out the battery and reboot it, nothing worked... it just died
Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahaha.....
I've never bricked a single device...

you do know this is just a good joke? we could already have that rom if the guy was actually doing something real.
having drivers developed and using existing stock kernels have existed for ages.
the video was fake, and just running a launcher with a settings apk from cm10 and build.prop modified, why would you believe anything else when its been months since we got cwm and the option to install roms?
even i released a bootable cm10 with call function disabled, but thats at least more than a video showing fake presentation with edits all around on a developer phone.
honestly would not use that as an argument to get bootloader unlocked.
its easier to get 2nd-boot to work i guess than having bootloader unlocked, we have already seen that is possible.

Yeah he could probably in some time maybe hack the P880 bootloader indeed. It seems he has done the same on that device that also had a BCT encryption like our device. But then again he will need to have a P880 phone to start hacking it. So the donations should be a lot

What do You guys think? (i'm not a dev, lol)
Willing to donate 20 euros, via Bank transfer (IBAN), or via Paypal. In both cases fees paid by the developer who gets the bounty. My offer is timely limited till the end of 2013, after that I most probably will already have sold the phone.
I can chip in $50 just to get this thing unlocked! But will have to wait for 2 weeks for my funds to come in. Just recently got back from a family vacation in San Diego and will be leaving for another trip to Vegas in 3 weeks...so money is pretty tight at the moment. But im definitely willing to chip in $50!

Hello guys,
This phone is giving me headaches. Once I rooted the phone is not allowing me to to flash CWM and nothing at all but continue stock. Im looking like a paranoid for the Pit file and the flash rom for me to go stock 100% but there is nothing in the forum to well organized I guess that I have missed looking for it or getting lucky to find it.
Im on 2.3.3 right now and the more I do factory reset the more the superuser stays installed. Pleas advise how to successfully flash my phone from scratch for me to install one of the custom ported roms we have in the forum.
I came from Samsung Vibrant with an experience of more then 1000 flashes. I think the bad thing about this phone is that we have to navigate over 7 different forums to get the info correctly and is very confusing.
Guys I also dont have Network Signal meaning I cant use the phone.
Thanks guys very much for any help

Just want to chime in. I also made this mistake, but I didn't want to make a stink about so I searches the whole internet of things for 2 days. Here's what I've got just in case anyone else is so inclined to help.
D959
Took the ota for 4.4.2 (bad idea #1) rooted via towel root v3 installed cwm via playfulgod's gflex app. (Bad idea #2) warning message told me not to I derped up and did it anyway.
Rebooted into recovery, wiped data/cache (she needed a reset for personal reasons) upon reboot I was prompted with a message *here is where I really messed up* message said something to the effect of "you may have lost root would you like to reroot?". I clicked OK (bad idea #3) and it hung at splash screen.
I have tried all unbrick methods on xda. I know what the crazy Korean screen says (with the barcode) and it is not at all relevant so don't get excited if you see it.
I was recently able to get into recovery wipe data/cache has no effect.
PHONE IS RECOGNIZED WHEN IN RECOVERY!!!!!!
Just trying now to get some adb/fastboot connectivity or something.
To play catch up see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2740247
I know this is kinda of old, but the same thing happen to me today but with t-mobile. how did you get it to boot in recovery i tried everything and for the life of me i cant get it to boot in recovery or download mode, i can get it to the white page with koren letters and the imei on the bottom with bar code.
If you guys can get into recovery then get Dfuse's stock 4.2.2 jelly bean Rom for T-MOBILE AND AT&T ONLY.
T-MOBILE & AT&T ONLY!!!!! put the zip on a thumb drive and use a female usb to male micro usb adapter. Sold at radio shack. Amazon , best buy. Etc. Now in recovery make sure usb-otg is mounted, then navigate to the zip and flash. Don't forget to factory reset afterwards and before you boot.
I believe I have bricked my phone in the same way...has anyone been able to remedy this...I am able to get to recovery and to a download screen that says download with a img of a PC and phone. I have a Sprint version.
Thank you
If u can go into download mode try using lg flash tool go back to stock method.

Hello,
I tried to downgrade from 5.6.x to 5.2.x. And its hardbricked.
I thought I could unbrick. But now, dont know what to do with that brick.
The Fire is connected to my pc, its doing something like open/close. Windows plug-in sound comes around each 22 seconds.
I see just black screen (its like off)
I've installed and tried KindleUnbrickV1.1, but it waits for nothing. (It says, waiting for adb device. But doesn't become visible on abd...)

but the problem is that the Fire is not seen by "adb devices"
(as I get, the Fire restarts itself and it takes around 22 seconds. its like an infinite loop)

You tried to downgrade firmware, there is no reason to believe it can be recovered

Downgrading FireOS from 5.6 to anything below 5.4 borks the bootloader. There is no known method to resurrect the device. Save or sell it for parts.
in a near future, do you think that a new method will be found? @Davey126

Unlikely; bootloader downgrades are almost always fatal regardless of device.
I contacted to Amazon support. Hope that they'll help me

If device is within warranty they will likely exchange it for a refurbished unit as a one time courtesy. There is no technical fix if unable to access recovery.
btw, I have another amazon Fire which works fine (my friend's). can I do something with two of them to recover my broken one? @sd_shadow @Davey126

Dude - not sure how many different ways it needs to be explained. Device is dead. Learn from the experience and move on.

Hi, i also had the same problem but sadly nothing to do. My device brick was caused by an ota update through the system (so officially) and i assume i was unlucky. Same symthomps like your. I searched all the web and i found up that's really nothing to do with that. Amazon tries in any way to descourage this pratique so the bootloader is locked for that motivation. In less words:
Nothing to do, i suggest to put that thing in garbage or sell it for parts.
