Bricked W8

I tried to unlock the bootloader of w8 it is dated later than 11w29
because of what the thread in Everything X8/W8 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1590266
says
"NEW!!
This is now by far the easiest way to unlock your bootloaders!! And for phones with 11w29 and above, you have a greater chance of success!!!
Try it now!! ---HERE "

with the latest se tweaker tool.
I followed the guide and went through the process and the tweaker tool said succesfully unlocked bootloader.
but then, when I turned off the phone to check it on S1 it wouldnt go on flashmode nor power on and it wont charge as well.
Is there anyway that i could do?

It's maybe not bricked..
Take the battery out for a minute then reinsert and plug in charger..
Leave for 4hrs charging without touching the phone.. It might turn itself on..

have greater chance of success,doesnt mean its sure....but i agree that it is misleading...
its hard brick,send it to se repair shop or to the trash!

send it SE if u have warranty, otherwise take it to a phone repairing shop

Thank you for your replies.
I guess I'm gonna have to try first what CtrlAltDelIrl suggested, and if won't work then cause I am not under warranty anymore, I would have to take it to a repair shop like what the rest of you agreed on.
I just hope it wouldn't cost me much to have it repaired.

I brought the phone to the repair shop and they were able to revive it thru j-tag. It cost me Php 1,500 (35USD)
So Monivan you are not a dead meat, your aunt's phone is not for trash yet..

[Q] Booting problem

Last Sunday I tried to update my S5830's firmware, from Froyo to Gingerbread, but I accidentally used the wrong firmware. The firmware was for a Samsung I5510. My phone won't start up or boot into recovery or download. The lights of the back button and menu button are faint. Is there anything I can do to fix my phone?:crying:

Go to a service center. You hardbricked your phone.

Only JTAG or Sammy Service Center!
Flashing Of The kernel Changed Mounting Points To Inexistent Ones Therefor Your Phone Doesnt Turn On! Sorry theres no "easy Way"

The service said that they can't do it.

Are you in warranty?

If you have a JTAG you can. It isn't recommended since Samsung service centers can do this for you.

Is bringing my phone to Samsung the best option?

Yes, is the only thing you can do.

If you are in warranty then you're lucky.
Show it to your samsung service center. If they can't solve it, there's hardly any chance of getting your phone back.

Yeah, I brought it again at another Samsung Service Center and they said that the motherboard has a problem. I smell something lazy at the service center. How much is the JTAG?

I've searched once (a long time ago) and it was something like US$150. Here on Brazil, if the company doesn't repair your product within 30 days, they HAVE to give you a new product or refund your money. Check with your local laws to see if something like this apply, it might be the best solution if the Sammy Service Center is too lazy and take too much time.

Find the thread "How to disassemble Optimus Black".
More devices failure, seems this part of the board is weak.
Monitor your temperature, a statusbar temp monitor. If you'll see the battery there's a warning of it not exceeding in 40°C.
Anything higher will take a toll on parts and battery in due time.
Avoid OCing (ICS/JB) for now as LG's kernel is in shambles in terms of voltage/Power Management.

It's more than that as OP said service center wants to replace the board. So it's a hardware failure.

QHSUSB_DLOAD is Qualcomm High Speed USB Download mode. It is how HTC puts software onto the phone. A few phones have came back from in with no explanation as to why, but most are hard bricked. There is no know fix other than sending it to HTC. They will replace the phones main board and reflash it. It is not a warranty repair, so you'll have to pay for it.

btw if i send it to HTC for repair how many it will cost? hmm, i just thinking, about giving another explanation to htc when i send it to him, if i say "it has bricked after a few minutes since i update from 4.2.1 to 4.2.2" does htc will trust that? if htc doesnt trust that, how htc know if my phone already unlocked and tampered? because the phone doesnt want to boot at all ._.

There is a reason every developer includes a disclaimer with their software. You chose to unlock the bootloader, you chose to run modified software, and now it falls on you to accept responsibility for a bricked device. HTC may fall for that line, but I doubt it. The 4.2.2 updates been out for a while now and there have been no reports of it bricking phones, where as several devices running custom roms have had this happen. More than likely HTC will see through the bull**** story. But who am I to be your moral compass? Go ahead and give it a try. Let us know how it goes.

i think i wanna to try that, because if the repair cost over $50, i think i will be really confused to consider repair it nor not. btw if i buy JTAG, how much JTAG and other thing i need for it will be cost?
oh, btw if i send it to HTC and give a bull*** story, and he's not believe in that, then i need to cost for the repair, probably how much it will cost for the repair?

I've heard different reports of the cost, but its always over $200 US.
I wouldn't recommend JTAG on the One. The body is almost impossible to get apart without damaging it.

The phone retails for what? $600? $800?
$200 to bring it back from a hard brick is not surprising, especially since HTC seems to be the only ones capable of this....

Well your One is basically a fancy paperweight the way it is, and if they'll do it under warranty great. Two months is a long time, but at least its not $200.
