Hi everybody, this is my first post here, I am very happy to be here, joining in this community.
When I tried to update the busybox binary to the latest version 1.19X (FroyoPro 2.5) I hard bricked my phone.
The Rom loads up but after that my phone doesn't work (an endless number of error messages appears).
I cannot even start the phone in ClockworkMod or Xrecovery.
I tried to recover my phone using SEUS and FlashTool but (If I didn't do anything wrong) it still doesn't work.
Now I don't know what to do. The phone is still under warranty but it is going to expire shortly, if I ask them to fix my phone, they surely won't accept my SE because it's clear I rooted it.
Can you suggest me any solutions - a good solution would also be to make it dead - maybe with a strong power supply...
Thanks in advance.

Thanks, I'll try this. If it works (I hope so), I'll let you know.
Hi. It's my first time here to post too. Same thing happened to my w8. Installed busybox 1.19.3 (wanted to try supercharger), but when I rebooted I got stuck in the SE logo. Seus seems to not work anymore. Have you tried PCC? I simply flashed back to stock rom using flashtool myself. Try double checking. First time i tried i didn't install the drivers from flashtool's folder.

I think the first time I used FlashTool I didn't install the drivers. :banghead:
Today I'll try this way.
It worked, the first time I didn't install the drivers before using FlashTool.
Thank you very much.
Eeem, just reflash it with seus or if u can unlock bootloader then do that and flash custom kernel cuz custom kernels have cwm recovery built in what means u can flash many many fine roms. Hit thanx if i helped.
glad that worked.
are you still gonna update busybox? if you are pls let me know how you did it successfully without bricking! thank!

Use custom kernels for your device.

This script returns to unrooted, factory state android 4.0.4.
1. Download this zip - Quicker download here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?pzrzrt3583rgbmf
2. Backup your phone (everything! sd, apps, games etc).
3. Plug in your phone, turn on USB debugging.
4. Unzip the downloaded files.
5. Open run.bat
6. Type in Y then press enter.
7. It does the rest.
Had to do this since i'm sending off my phone to samsung, basically used this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1167819&highlight=unroot
and updated the images for 4.0.4 and for i9020t/23 (this won't work for nexus 4g or i9020a). It worked well for me so I thought someone else might find it useful.
If you're having problems it's probably because you haven't installed the windows drivers correctly, I can't really help you there (google it or something!)
If you want to thank anyone, go to the other thread and thank michaelpeerman. All credit goes to him.
Edit: By request, someone wanted the same thing but for 2.3.6, so here is the link for that

Hi there!
Is the One CLick 2.3.6 edition compatible with 9023?
I have a i9020T stock 4.0.4 never rooted. If I run the 2.3.6 script,will it go back to stock 2.3.6 without problems?

My understanding is that you require root to flash any ROM, this would be no exception. It wouldn't be that hard to root and then run the tool though.
But there'll be no problem rolling back to 2.3.6 from stock (rooted) 4.0.4?

Hi,
I got a really f******g problem with my NS. The power button is out of service. Thus my only aim is to get back to the unroot locked bootloader rom in order to send it to samsung.
I tried to do that manually with cmd.
I tried via Odin
I tried via your one click zip
I used my computer (the one i used to root it for the first time, guessing the drivers didn't change). Everytime, the command got stuck at 'waiting for device'. I thought it was a driver problem, tried to reinstall sdk, reinstall drivers. I'm still blocked at waiting for device.
I tried with another 'virgin' computer. I installed PDAnet to get drivers and make sure they work. (tried CMD or with your one click zip..) I'm still still stucked at waiting for device. However, my device do is recognised by both computers..4
Any idea?
Is my ****ing power button messing around?
Two days i'm drudging on this.. I'm thinking about suicide by now..

Sorry mate I really have no idea, maybe you could try calling up samsung and ask them if they would repair it even if you rooted? It is a developer phone and so they must understand that most people with a Nexus S root it..
I'm looking to sell my NS so wanted to get it back to stock and this script worked perfectly. Thanks so much!

similar problem
I have the same problem ! sorry if I am spamming your request, but I think that's better than to make another n00b thread :angel:.
so in my case, I installed a wrong ROM (there was two variants), tested softwares like flashtool without any real result. I only need to restore my lovely phone with the default ROM, then I can flash it again, thanks.
edit: didn't read the previous post (was writing). so it should be the same thing for me cause I am really null in those stuff.
Download flash tool and X8 ftf file then search for steps on what to do. Or use pc companion

if u want go back to 2.1 eclair just download the FTF file from my signature down there!
this is one of the way to unbrick the phone
- copy paste the ftf file to flashtool/firmware
- choose flashmode on flashtool
- turn off x8 , plug it with hold back button
- waallaahhh! Done
as I already said, I used flashtool but without the original ROM (I am noob). but now it's working finelly. how ?
after installing flashtool, it was asking for drivers, even if they are already installed. so I installed all the drivers, for all the available phones .
retryting again and again, same problem. drivers are missed.
but I don't know how, it worked in the last attempt, and my phone is flashed with the original ROM.
thanks a lot :good: !

So don't root your phone
Yeah but they said too that you can update manually even though your phone is rooted but i don't know how to update manually. Can you teach me?
People have tried many apps in the past, and reported that they do not work

hi
pless help
mi how to root samsung star 2 sm-g130e withot pc
Dears, thank you all for your efforts in making this website the best ever.
I just bought a new Note 5 (N920C) couple of weeks ago, and suddenly it went crazy!!
All apps began to crash and the phone reboots million times.
I tried all means of wiping, recovery, i even reinstalled the stock firmware, changed kernels, still the same problem, (latest kernel is SpaceX-Kernel-v0.1_N920C(official) still no use.
Now the thing is my knox counter is up by 1, and the warranty is void. :crying: any way i can reset it to send it back to samsung, or if there anyways to fix it it would be better as they will take two weeks min to repair it.

can you enter download mode??? (down+mid button+power)
if so i can recommend a couple of issues;
1) enter download mode and by using odin download the factory rom from sammobile.com... Select your country (turkey?) and find the appropriate rom there
2) flash the phone
3) with the same mode connect to pc and by using smart switch try to update the firmware (There is an update if i am not mistaken)
4) see what happens
good luck

knox is a software and hardware based fuse if it gets tripped there is no going back.. Even the great developer chainfire (mastermind behind flashfire, cf auto root and supersu) confirmed that knox counter cannot be reverted back..
I upgraded to OJD yesterday, same issue, almost all apps have sopped working, I fixed this with re-install kernel and wipe cache in recovery, not sure which one is the correct solution, just try this, thanks.
