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] A trip to the warranty store

Just had my phone sent to the LG service center last week because it bootloops everytime it is removed from usb port. Started awhile back with random restarts then suddenly phone turns off everytime someone calls and finally only usable if connected to usb.
had it repaired and the service center replaced the motherboard + battery. They told me it was a result of either flactuating or overcharging, but I havent one of those. Could it be because of my different usb cord? I use a nokia mini usb cord because the original LG cord got lost.
Now i'm afraid to use it until I buy a new usb cord.

Im using the one that came with my optimus and I have the same issues. Its rated 150W ( Speaking from memory ) but when charging it through Computer USB ( 75W ) its fine.
As your battery doesn't get to hot I can't see how it can affect your phone. I'm not a a guru on this so I might be wrong.

I have the same issues too! When I charge my OB the touch goes crazy :| and when I try to write a SMS for example, it writes letters by itself for a couple of minutes. Why it is happening this? Why is the phone acting weird? :|
I am using the stock charger that came in the box with it and the cable is the original one.

You're sooo rich, XD
Anywaays, i figured it won't happen again so i bought a new usb cord, Hytac USB 2.0 to be exact... i'm not sure if it really works, but so far so good. It says in the box that it supports data transfer AND charge soooo. it's okay then?
The head office of LG also told the service center said that it could have been the result of charging while the phone has a case on (i usually had a rubberized case on it)

Guy's I just realized today that when I connect it to the charger or pc... the charge led turns solid orange.
And it appears to be charging..
Will that give any indications as to the status of the phone (dead or alive) ?

Search for software called J-TAG. I don't know how to use it. Search for guide. I am sure you can UN-Break the phone using that. :good:

Sony told me they also can go by manufacturer date. And since the phone isn't even a year on the market yet and Sony offers 2 years warranty u should be able to sent it in for repair. At least in Germany it is like that.

Were you updated? If you were still on .350, maybe it SOD'd
Btw, why would you buy the phone W/O Warranty?
Sony offers 2 years warranty, so whereever you bought it - hustled you and hustled you good.

I got it as a present and I must have thrown the receipt for it but no biggie since I am already in Sonys system and still have a year and 10 months warranty in it even without the receipt because they go by the date of manufacturing. What makes sense because u can see when it was made and if it isn't over Sonys warranty then that isn't an issue.

severe issues with USB, no adb/fastboot/wall charging- please help..

hello there,
I wanted to ask whether someone can help me.. my rooted and s-offed HTC one's USB plug suddenly stopped working properly, wall charging is shown as USB charging and when plugged to my laptop the phone is not recognized at all, only charging via USB.. hence, I was not able to return back to stock before sending it back to repair via my dealer.
now they tell me that due to my custom recovery my warranty is void and that it is also the reason for the USB issues.. ?!? also they say that the main board needs to be replaced in order to repair my device, this is priced at €280,--!!!
I really don't know what to do now..

T-mobile sells a HTC One Refurb for $320 and There are some on ebay for around $275. If your MB is bad and HTC is going to charge you to replace it I don't think they care if the bootloader is unlocked

well obviously it seems that they do care.. they claim that my software installations have caused the hardware issues, not kidding..
