Dead Boot PLEASE HELP! - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay so my phone was rooted, I unrooted it successfully and flashed a stock ROM. Just as I was about to sell the phone as now have galaxy s5 the phone said it needed an update (official Samsung) so I let it do its thing but when the update completed the phone screen went black and did not come back on and since then the phone shows no signs of life what so ever.
After a bit of research I have found out that this is a corrupt boot loader and there is a way to fix it ( the phone is an s4 i9505) this is done by using a piece of software but my problem is I cannot get the software to recognise the phone
I have tried to install the qualcomm drivers with some success in command prompt but I can still not get my computer to successfully install them as the phone is not showing up in the software.
When connecting to the computer I do hear the 'd don' sound showing that the phone is being recognised and the computer attempts to install the windows drivers (using windows 7) but always fails
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks alot

open in system setting, hardware devices.
if you plug in your phone, you see for few seconds qualcomm qshub or so. then click it right and install the driver manually.
if you have open the properties Menue, you can work with.

I have tried this method and I can navigate to the driver but when installing I get a message saying that windows cannot install

qualcomm bootmode is very easy to repair.
But only if you know what you must do exactly.
I played with a dead sony sp 6 months, after i get it back to life from qualcomm mode.
now i waked up many sony and samsung from qualcomm boot mode.
if you install the correct driver, i can send you a repair tool.

Thanks for the reply, I have a 64bit computer so tried all the 64 bit drivers, I installed all 4 .inf driver successfully in command prompt but when I plug the phone in windows attempts to install drivers and fails?
Do you have the drivers I need?

I also added the Microsoft certificates before hand aswell

No luck still cant get drivers to install, i think this is something to do with my computer as i always seem to have trouble whenever i do anything on my mobile devices such as rooting and what not.
the driver file that doesnt seem to wanna go in is the 'qcser.inf' file.
How would you guys go about installing the driver as i am currently using the method shown in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1669498

this install version is old my friend.It works with device manager. BUT....use a USB port that direct connect on your mainboard (no hub or USB 3.0), and youse the org. cabel. thats important.
You can also try the driver from the riffbox.they must also work.

I load you up the chimera and the riffbox drivers..install it.
in device manager when your qualcomm pop up, click it and tick install driver manually.
then you must scroll down and choose the qualcomm.
Also upload a logfile from a i9505. So it looks like when repair is done

I only used that method of installation, I didn't use the drivers from there, the drivers I used where from a forum thread which was specifically for the dead boot of a galaxy s4, this is also where I got the dead boot repair software from
How would you guys go about installing these drivers if you had t cause that must be where I'm going wrong or its just simply my stupid computer making everything difficult

Nexus s wont turn on , help ..

Hy there, Yesterday, I made Nexus with factory fireware with Clockwork mode. This one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061855
because back there I had Cyannoge mode 7. It didn't want to reset factory options with mobile phone so, I must do on that way.... I made everything good like it writes in instructions in first post and it didn't show up any errors. On the end when I finished it and pushed the REBOOT button, I pushed it and it didn't worked at all anymore... Temperature of battery was ok, and battery life 30%... I tried to let it turned on, and check it in the morning. It didn't showed up any contact, and put it in recovery that I can HOLD the Volumen UP Button and Power up Button but, again nothing. I tried to get out te Card and Batery about 30mins and then put it back inside but it didn't worked again. Now I tried to put it on USB, i thought that somekind of contact will show up but nothing.
I'm going to go out on a limb and guess you don't have an i9020T. In fact I'm willing to bet you have an i9023. Therefore you just flashed firmware for another phone. If my above prediction is correct you have a different screen type which is not supported by this firmware. Does your computer recognize the phone? adb devices or fastboot devices if you try to power into the boot loader?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
yes its i9023 :S ..
Does your computer recognize the phone - no
adb devices or fastboot devices if you try to power into the boot loader? - with pressing volumen up and power button or what?

What does not work?? What do you see on the screen, what does the device? Give him some information, hes trying to help your device. He is not earning anything with it... So say what you see, what you do all stuff.
He could stop helping you because you didn't gave any information... Then your stuck with this state of your phone, so give information about what you see and do...
If you give the info you could maybe earlier use your phone.

Z00TD ZE551KL Zenfone 2 Laser *hard bricked*

I somehow managed to lock myself out of the phone, no boot, no fastboot recovery mode, no access through adb (device not recognized), no nothing. Anyways just looking for assistance in this. I know there must be a way, but I haven't seen anything clear enough to precisely *unbrick* my beloved ASUS Zenfone 2 Laser ZE551KL Z00TD. I've resorted to a Samsung Galaxy S5 that I rebuilt from an old broken ones spare parts. I'm more of a hardware repairer so flashing ROMS and all that is rather new to me. But I was having some success early on when trying to flash CM.13 onto it using ADB and TWRP, which is when the trouble started. I flashed the wrong recovery.img I think and somehow locked myself out completely. I'm not sure exactly what I did wrong, but after many failed attempts to flash CM.13 Marshmallow, I tried to revert back to the stock ROM and then realized that I didn't make a backup recovery.img. Doh! So now I'm completely stuck with a really nice looking paper weight. Please help! :angel:

I did plug in the device, while the battery was still in it, and it came up as an unrecognized device when the balloon popped up at the bottom right of the PC screen. I unplugged it, took out the battery, and plugged back in, but nothing showed up this time. Although I didn't look in device manager though. But I will try that next. What's your thoughts on helping me solve this issue? I'd really like to learn how the actual company first loads their firmware onto the devices. Like what kinds of software and equipment they use. I'm sure it's on a major scale though and probably have machines doing most of the work, just like an automobile assembly line. LOL. But I really want to get this ASUS Zenphone unbricked. So any help would be awesome. Thanks very much!
thanks man! I think you have to download QUALCOMM drivers! from internet. and install it into your pc. after installing drivers there will be a connection into your device manager when you connect your phone with pc. it maybe QUALCOMM 9006/9008, or QDLOADER or Qualcomm mmc storage. is this shows up into your pc, you are done,, you can push firmware parts into your device using qpst or qfil softwares. I will send you the link for guide.
---------- Post added at 10:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:45 AM ----------
if your phone is hard bricked then you might see broken partitions into LINUX! if you use any Linux distro then you will find many partitions when you connect your phone to your pc into Linux. we can adjust or backup or restore partitions using Linux simply, if we have image files of firmware.
---------- Post added at 10:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:49 AM ----------
try to search"unbrick all qualcomm snapdragon devices" into google and you will find out how to unbrick using qfil/qpst. you have to download stock firmware for your phone.

try to press volume down button + power button combo and see what happens? after that try to remove and reinsert battery. again try volume up + power button. in last volume up + volume down + power button after removing and reinserting battery.

Thanks Man!!! I really appreciate the help. I'll try all this and report back. Thanks Again!
Well I realize it's been awhile, got pretty busy at work, I run a computer and smartphone repair shop.
But I've managed to get as far as getting the right drivers installed under COM PORTS, because it was showing up as RELINK HS-USB QDLoader 9008.
So after uninstalling those com ports drivers by uninstalling the device (you need to click the check box to uninstall drivers).
Then by holding down simultaneously the power + volume up + volume down buttons, while then connecting the usb cable back to the computer.
The device now showed up under other devices in device manager as QHSUSB_BULK. I searched and downloaded the Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 drivers and installed them (The download was simply named Qualcomm_USB_Drivers.)
I installed the drivers to the QHSUSB_BULK device by clicking update driver software and then selecting them by browsing to where I saved them, in this case to my desktop. Note: I first had to download the .zip file, then extract that into my desktop folder I just called Firmware and Drivers. The name of the Driver pack I downloaded was called "Qualcomm_Drivers_QDLoader"
Now the device shows up as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM10). I reconnected the device using the same method of holding down the volume up+volume down+power all at the same time with one hand and the other to plug in the micro USB cable that was linked to the PC. But I did this after which I took out the battery for about 20 seconds and placed it back in. This way I could check to see if the device was truly connected at that com port.
I have a plethora of software installed already to include, android debugging tools aka ADB+Fastboot+Tools unzipped using WINRAR to the desktop folder "adb", I also for some reason have AndroidSDKSlim.zip extracted to the desktop which just has the adb and fastboot tools in them. I also have QPST which has QFIL and a lot of other developer tools, and eMMC_DL_Tool_for_customer_ENG_V5.2.0R. I'm thinking I'll be needing these soon, so that's why when searching I just downloaded and installed all of these programs.
I'm at the point now where the phone is plugged in and the COM PORT appears to be open as far as I can tell.
Now I just have to figure out how to get the partitions, stock firmware, and all that back onto the phone so that I can unlock it, root it, load TWRP recovery, and then get it all back to life.
Any suggestions? Anyone? @crossmanx thanks for helping to get me started. Do you know where to go from here? I'm not even sure I have the right ASUS drivers installed, but I think that I do. This should be all I need correct?
Thank you. I'll continue to be as detailed as possible in my steps to recover my *hard bricked "ZE551KL Z00TD". Oh but on another note, I have heard that the stock rom or image recovery for the Asus Zenphone Selfie Z00T may work as well, but I'm afraid to try that. I just want to get this device back up and running with either the stock rom or and update MM rom like CM.13. Cheers!

asus firmware for your device model is available on asus web site, download that and open that zip file, in that you will find boot.img, aboot or amass or droidboot.img, and also system.img files, and you have to push that into your device using qfil/qpst. i thibk you can do it also by emmc_dl is qualcomm drivers are installed properly and shows up as com_port, u just have to enter comport number and it wish push your files into device..

if you only push droidboot img then you will be able to get into the volume+ + power combo mode, so you can get access to fastboot, and after that you know all the procedures....

well actually all the qualcomm based devices are unbrickable so sont worry your phone will be live again... you have to just experimenting it on...
well actually i dont have this phone...i am thinking about buying asus ze601kl? is this a good phone? how'z the performance and stability of cm13 snapshot version on your device? is dual sim and all the other things works without any bug? or it has any bug?
---------- Post added at 06:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:14 PM ----------
asus has such funky things in stock boot image as it verifies everytime on boot for valid image, if you have unlocked its bootloader before and try to update its firmware or install stock rom it creates problem. so cm13 is better choice.

Well, here I am ready to upload the ROM to the phone using QFIL. The phone is identified by the port. The only thing I'm having trouble with now is finding the "RAWPROGRAMMER" file to load from the firmware.
I'm not sure what else to do, I can't find the file anywhere.
Maybe this is when they say I need to get ahold of someone else exact same phone, root it, load twrp, and backup their original stock rom? I'm not sure. I just feel soo close to getting this done, but I keep missing files. I'm trying to load CM.13 but inside the folders for the firmware, there isn't any file in there. I've already found the patch file and the .mbn file that I need. Just missing the rawprogrammer file.
This is giving me a headache. LOL
Actually the only file I need is the .xml file that it asks for in QFIL. Which I guess is supposed to be in the stock rom somewhere. But in order to get that, I'm guessing I'll have to use my wifes phone (she has the exact same model as I do). I'll just have to make sure to not delete anything or mess up her phone. lol
And I'm also thinking that I will have to install stock ROM first before flashing the CM.13. So I'll have to get that stock ROM from her phone, since I deleted mine on accident.
that xml file is basically a partition structure file for your phone emmc. i think it might be there in your firmware.zip
you just have to find rawprogrammer file, i think it is there where you find unbrick guide for all qualcomm devices.....you just try that file it might work for your phone too..and after adding rawprogrammer you can add firmware parts from firmware.zip file or you also can clone your wife's phone emmc, using emmc dump to raw extension.

you dont need to install stock rom first, only you need to send droidboot,recovery or maybe boot partitions, if you have deleted modem and other partitions, then those will also. if you get fastboot then you can flash twrp and can flash cm13.

there will be different named xml file in firmware.zip for you phone's firmware you just try try yourself available xml files in firmware. if it will be wrong xml then it will auto terminate no need to worry.
What happened man! there is no response from you, since very long time!! I think you have solved the problem and been very happy with the phone live again.
flash stock firmware using this tool: maybe it works

Try this https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3/help/hard-brick-asus-zenfone-3-ze520kl-t3483874/page3
Follow last post, technically you only need adb connectivity to flash all at once with one click. Hope this will help you.
Of course, now you need the rom for your device.

if your phone is hard bricked then you might see broken partitions into LINUX! if you use any Linux distro then you will find many partitions when you connect your phone to your pc into Linux. we can adjust or backup or restore partitions using Linux simply, if we have image files of firmware.

Good to see anyone talking about LINUX here! I have my ZE550KL briked and the only thing I've been able to do till now are booting in fastboot and Android Recovery modes.

Wow, this helped me a lot! My Linux system was not able to recognize the device but reinserting the battery and trying volumeUP+PowerButton did the trick! Now running 'fastbood devices' lists it and of course that made it visible through Virtualbox too [Windows 7 guest OS].
Now, considering that I would really like to resuscitate my phone by using LINUX, what else should I do in order to succeed?
Thanks a lot and best regards.

thanks man! I think you have to download QUALCOMM drivers! from internet. and install it into your pc. after installing drivers there will be a connection into your device manager when you connect your phone with pc. it maybe QUALCOMM 9006/9008, or QDLOADER or Qualcomm mmc storage. is this shows up into your pc, you are done,, you can push firmware parts into your device using qpst or qfil softwares. I will send you the link for guide.

try to search"unbrick all qualcomm snapdragon devices" into google and you will find out how to unbrick using qfil/qpst. you have to download stock firmware for your phone.

Nexus 6p Hard Brick

Hello, as I've written my Nexus 6P is hard bricked. I've done a terrible mistake, flashing from TWRP recovery a pixel rom for the wrong telephone (I didn't notice there was written bullhead instead of angler). After rebooting, the telephone is dead, the display doesn't go. When I connect to my PC, it says there's something wrong with the device connected. I know I did something very stupid, but if there's a chance to get back my phone restored I will strongly thank you...
Is the phone able to cold boot into recovery or the bootloader?

Well, actually I don't know, as the display is off... I only know that when connected to PC, keeping pushed the power off button I hear the sound of a new USB device.
So when you press the power+volume down buttons to boot into the bootloader, you don't see anything on the screen?

This is what I get-->Dispositivo USB sconosciuto
(in English is "unknown USB device)
Did you try holding the power and volume down for at least 10 seconds? Or did you just press it?

Hello..
Head over this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/howtos-debrick-nexus-6p-stuck-edl-9008-t3552838
Install Qualcomm drivers. I guess your phone will likely show up as:
Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 in device manager
If it's the case, try following the guide in the thread you found Qualcomm drivers...
Good luck...
I tried also this last method, but it didn't work. . So unfortunately I had To bring It to assistance this morning...

Sorry...
Hopefully you'll get it back, up and running!
I'm sure you'll be more careful flashing firmware in the future. :good:

Download mode "disabled"

When I enter download/fastboot mode in the bottom it says "download mode disabled". I plug a usb to my pc and it stays the same. ADB not working obviously and OEM unlocking is "on". Am I softbricked?
Did you try a Google search first link has some things you can try.
I tried the instructions of the first link but nothing happens
