Brick problem when downgrading e470s - Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development

Hi bros, i come from Vietnam and iam using jactivelteskt like you, aren't you ? It is a pity what i have done this afternoon that i try to downgrade my phone from 5.0.1 to 4.2.2 ( baseband ....NE1) by flashing through odin v3.12. The odin reported "PASS" then my phone reboot. After that and not any "after'' anymore, my phone can not boot. i am sure that my phone was 50% battery at that time i flashed rom. My phone now has no signal to show that it is still alive. i have tried to hit the power button or keep hitting it for a long time but nothing happens. i put out the battery then try to do the same but the result is the same, no vibration, no screen on. It is now really a brick.
Thank for reading my message. Could you give me some advice ? I am so confused now

Captivate is un-responsive

Hello All,
I have tried to update my captivate on gingerbread via this guide.
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile...-3-gingerbread-firmware-on-samsung-captivate/
All is going well and odin was updating the firmware then suddenly my phone screen goes white and odin is stucked at the progress. After waiting 20 mins I uplugged the phone and after that my phone is not turning on nothing is happening and its seems like its dead. Any solution or help in this ?
Thanks in advance.

Make a jig using this guide. It's not exactly easy but it should get you into download mode again so that you can reflash the stock firmware and start over.
will this work ?
as some told me to buy this from http://usbjig.com/ but they stated on the website " As long as there is something on the screen, the jig should work for you. " and I contact that guy and he said me that it will not work for you as my phone is not giving any response.
if I understand this correctly, if your phone stopped responding while odin was flashing the bootloader files, your phone is likely dead in the water. If it is, then a jig will not help.
Just a question did you try pulling the battery, then try again. I was flashing kf1 one time and it said completed successfully but it was an all blank screen luckily it was dark and there was just 1 tiny pixel lit up still pulled battery inserted battery held vol+ and vol- inserted usb and odin detected.

[Q] My GT is dead! Help!! Urgent!

Think I have bricked my Tab - HELP
Just got myself a Tab P1000. I try updating software using Odin3.
I think i have misused the wrong firmware not for P1000 (stupid), when Odin3 is running gonna finish, it showed FAIL! So i disconnected my GT although the download mode still running.....(stupid again) n I manually off my GT by continuing pressing power button wished to reflash by proper firmware.
As i reconnected it to pc again, although i tried to turned it into download mode again from off mode and i failed, Odin still can detect it. As i tried to use proper firmware to flash it, when it gonna finished, it showed FAIL again!
Now the tab screen turned off and it won't turn on. I tried to turn it into download mode or recovery mode but it couldn't be. I think my wrongly flash has made the buttons all mess up their function. All I have is the LED light on permentanly. If I hold the power button for 10 secs, the LED goes off for 3 secs and then comes on again.
Can anyone help me sort this? Any suggestion pls? Urgent!
Thanks a lot!
What firmware did you flash? I only ask because I know I once flashed an I9000 bootloader on my Captivate and it changed my download & recovery combo to I9000's however they still worked once I used the proper combo (I know extremely lucky)
If bootloaders have been wiped and replaced with wrong bootloaders then its back to samsung with your tab for (hopefully) warranty repair...
Send back to samsung is my last choice, beside this there is no more solution??
my tab it was in same condition, check this forum and you will find solution. i give you what it works for me.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1081800
good luck!!!
Dude!! It is worked!!!!
OMG DUDE IT IS REALLY WORKED!!!
Once i really think my GT have to send back to samsung...... but i have the last try of your suggestion, IT IS WORKED!!!
IT IS SO AMAZING N UNBELIEVABLE!!!
Thanks alot dude!!! You save my SGT!!! n my pocket!!! Thanks~
This solution is really useful n amazing!!
Any1 has same situation can try this!
Thanks again dude~!

if your phone can't charge your battery you should consider buying an external charger and then recharge the battery so you can flash new ROM!
how did this happen, were you on gingerbread or ICS ROM? did you wipe or flash something in recovery?
i have it official ics rom for germany, i want try it flash other rom / hybrid rom / after flash , and restart rom stay only first screen /booth screen/. i turn to cwm and clear wipe, factory reset...but after this operation note is restart back to cwm first screen. i try this operation 3 times, after this i turn note the download mode , connect with pc odin and flash new rom , but flash not ending only stay 15 minutes near 95 percent flash line. after restart ,i dont have cmw , only first screen is Firmware upgrade encountered an issue and if i turn to download mode , write me low battery!! can not download.
first i need full battery , and after i can try it flash...
Bump!
I dont usually bump topics but a friend of mine is having this same issue,
i cant boot into recovery or cwm mode, and if i try to hold the power,volume down and menu button together, it tells me that the battery is low (which isnt true as its been plugged since 3 hours). Its not a battery issue, my friend did some bad flashing and being a noob that he is, he can't even tell me what he was doing exactly that caused this weird thing, i donno even if i should call this a brick or not :S anyone????
Can you get another battery from anywhere?

PROBLEM SOLVED
THANKS TO Dr.KETAN because of him this problem for me has been solved
Below is the step-wise description.
WHAT HAPPENED:-
01.) I was on ROOTED GT-N7000 ICS 4.0.4 PDA-DDLRB CSC(K)-ODDLR4 M-DDLR1
02.) I decided to install Alliance ROM => AllianceROM_JB_N7000XXLSZ-v3 and by mistake and just out of habit instead of using ROM Customizer, I used Mobile ODIN with WIPE (ALL of them) Selected.
03.) Although ODIN didn't came up with any errors and showed installation successful, my phone was stuck on the first screen "SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE GT-7000" screen.
04.) After waiting for about 30-40 mins. I took out battery, took out memory card and tried to reboot again but no luck.
05.) I tired to recover by re-installing/rolling back to ROM I was on i.e. GT-N7000 ICS 4.0.4 PDA-DDLRB CSC(K)-ODDLR4 M-DDLR1, but ODIN Shows an error saying "PARAMETER INCORRECT" (screen shot attached)
06.) I then tried to install
GT-N7000 ICS 4.0.4 PDA-DDLR9 CSC(K)-ODDLR3 M-DDLR1 but ODIN failed (Screen Shot Attached)
GT-N7000 GB 2.3.6 PDA-DDLB2 CSC(K)-DDLA1 M-
07.) Now my phone is stuck in two modes only i.e.
7.1.) "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again"
7.2.) Download MODE
Dr. KETAN"S HELP (WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE)
01.) Remove .MD5 from extension of ROM and keeping .TAR as extension help me got rid of the "THE PARAMETER IS INCORRECT" error.
02.) Go to Task Manager and close/disable/end process following service
02.1) KIES
02.2)FIREWALL
02.3)ANTI-VIRUS
03.) In ODIN (on PC) Select PDA do not select PHONE (this was my mistake too)
04.) In case you had/have HEIMDALL on your system , go to Device Manager (from Control Panel) and un-install the Generic Device driver
05.) Now try to install the stock ROM you have (it should get installed , at-least this happened in my case.)
WHAT IS TOTALLY USELESS ?
01.) KIES
02.) You PANICKING and FREAKING OUT
WHAT I CAN'T DO:-
01.)Visiting Samsung shop/service station

THANKS TO Dr. KETAN again for his HIGHLY appreiciated, respected and well needed help and guidance.

low battery can't download
i have the same problem
i was in stock rom and i was playing game! the phone downloaded the OTA update and restarted automatically to install it but it stuck a long time in samsung boot logo and i think it caused the battery drain.
i rebooted the phone and it showed me "firmware upgrade encountered an issue blah blah blah" but my phone reboots after a sec and shows the message again and reboots again and .....
i tried to get into download mode but it says "low battery can't download " and reboots! i charged my battery with external charger and still no change! ODIN can detect my phone when i connect it but because it reboots after a sec i can't do anything!
any suggestions would be appreciated!

After you charged the battery, are you able to stay in download mode?

strange problem with charging, bootloop, pls help

Hi,
I rooted my note some weeks ago and I was searching the web, reading all kind of threads and thinking what the problem might be for the last weeks. Finally I decided to register myself on xda and to post my problem.
Like mentioned before I rooted my note via CMW and then flashed a franco kernel, unfortunally I dont know which version, but no custom rom. It all worked fine for 14 maybe 16 hours, then the phone froze after opening a app and after that it stuck at the Galaxy Note N7000 logo. I tried to enter recovery but it didn't work, I can enter downloadmode but I ran out of battery before I could do anything.
Now the phone keeps turning itself on and off the whole time when I try to charge it, the battery image comes for like 1 second and after that the screen turns black again. The battery itself is new so that shouldnt be the problem. I charged it like that for like 4 hours and then tried to enter downloadmode but it only says "battery to low to download".
I hope it is not a hardware problem. If anybody has a idea please help me, I am getting desperate.

EDIT: I came from offical 4.0.4 ICS
How old is your phone? Try with another good battery.
Suggestion: you may flash gb via PC Odin and check phone back to normal.

I got my phone last april, so it is not even a year old, but I got a new battery some days before rooting it... I'll try/have to get another one anyway.
Could you give me a link for a stock gb rom please.
Thank you for your quick reply.
Kindly go thru Guru 'drketan' threads and posts.

Found it. Should I use a rom with three parts or with only one? And can I use any rom or one with a special "code" that suits my device, e.g. german....
And just flash the rom and then fullwipe or is wiping not necessary?
I am sorry for the questions but I want to do everything right.
You can use any. Wipe in GB recovery.
Thanks a lot.
Yesterday I finally found somebody to charge my battery, today I flashed a GB stock rom, but I still can`t get any further than the Samsung Galaxy Note logo... It worked one time but I turned the phone off to insert my sim card and it got stuck again.
I tried flashing with pit file and bootloader as well, but no luck.
Could it be a hardware problem? Could a J-tag repair fix it?
Thanks in advantage.

Now your on safe GB rom, enter recovery wipe cache, factory reset, wipe dalvick cache.
Let's know the result
I tried, but I am not able to enter recovery... I press volume up + home + power but I only get the N7000 logo. I have read that you have to press the home button in the right moment to enter stock recovery, could somebody tell if that is true and if yes when do I have to press?
Anyone an idea please? I can enter download mode but not recovery, I downgraded to gb 2.3.6.KK5, I flashed abyss 4.2 but I can get to recovery mode or past the GT N7000 logo. Three times it got to the "package installing" page and one time it even started then I switched it off to insert my sim card and again stuck at the N7000 logo.
I need help please...

You have to press the three button combo "a long time" and the power button should be the last one to use.
I always wait until the Samsung Logo appeared 2 times and I see the next animation (depends on your kernel/recovery).
So please try again and hold the three buttons longer.
I flashed the 3-part lc1 gb and did a full wipe. The phone now starts sometimes but gets stuck at the n7000 logo most of the time. When it starts the whole UI feels very laggy, eg. while typing. Recovery mode started one time out of 1000 tries. I am afraid that something with my hardware is wrong. Any ideas? Could a Jtag be a solution? Please help.
try again to get into recovery and do a factory reset from Gb recovery..
press it until you get to recovery. DO NOT remove your fingers when you see n7000 bootlogo. keep pressing . keep pressing. keep pressing.

I made it in the recovery, did another fullwipe, but it still lags while typing or opening/closing an app and still does not boot proper, I have to try several times to get past the logo screen and it works only when I go in downloadmode and boot from there. Entering the recoverymode still only works randomly. Any idea?
Edit: it also lags while scrolling down/up

In all you posts here you never wrote exactly what version of which Rom you installed in whatever way.
That's why I'm still not convinced that you have "defined state" and giving good advice is try&error.
So please start telling: how did you flash, what GB or ICS or JB version, Stock Rom or Custom Rom.
,Sorry, I flashed the n7000xxlc1 - open europe with odin PC, stock, prerooted and in 3 parts. After that I did a fullwipe, the phone turns on after a few tries, most time after I go in download mode and restart from there. It lags while it is on, like short freezes, I tried to install the OTA update to ICS but failed.
Before that I was stuck on the Samsung Galaxy Note logo after flashing a franco kernel via CWM (I am not sure which version but it came with the guide to root, so I thought it could not be bad)
Edit: I flashed the xxlsc 4.1.2 jelly bean offical leak via odin PC, and I still have the same problems. I takes 5-6 reboots to actually start the device and it is very laggy, almost unusable. Every second or so it freezes for short time.
Any help please? I would send it to someone to do a JTAG repair if this could help. I just dont want to waste the money, so if anyone has experienced a problem like this please help me.
Is this a brick revived phone?

Note 5 got stuck while flashing and after battery drain stuck on charging + pictures

Hi all,
I recently received a note 5 SM-920i.
I rooted it and installed TWRP using a few guides from XDA. After that, i created a backup just in case (6.0.1) and tried to flash LineageOS. I didn't know that there was a difference between 920i/c/g/t etc and i just tried to flash without even checking.
When I tried flashing, installation got stuck (see pictures attached). I couldnt stop installation and go back to TWRP menu but i could take screenshots and swipe up and down. I tried to restart, hard reset, shut down but nothing helped, it was just stuck like this.
Once the battery ran out i wanted to charge the note 5 and try to go into recovery mod to re-install the backup but now its stuck on the charging logo even when its not connected to power. When I try to open it or go to recovery mode, nothing happens.
Has anyone ever had such an issue?
Would appreciate any help with this.
Thanks!!!
You need to flash stock rom with Odin. Volume up and power buttons same time about 7 second and right away when screen goes black volume down,home,power buttons same time. You get into download mode. Press volume up when first green display shows.
Download stock firmware for your model without auto restart options in Odin.
When you get pass firmware flash put your phone charger and leave there for little while. Then again force restart.
Volume, power button and keep those pressed so long that hopefully blue screen start and goes recovery mode and leave phone do work for you.
BTW all these custom roms some how not work for me.
Phone just start to be unstable and restart all the time.
Now finally I get stock nougat rom to work with Nova laugher.
Over 3 hours sot still 46% battery left and no single restart so far. Samsung pay off,GPS battery safe. Greenfinity.
Mobiledata 3G/2G. WiFi on. NFC off. Location history off.
That setup work for me and first time phone is stable.
And awesome battery life.
Hope this helps you.
