HD7 Half brick fix with goldcard - HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i have an half bricked HD7 and i'm trying to fix it with goldcard since i read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1417761
I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893152
I have the CID, i have the goldcard.img, i have a good rom and i copyed it to my 1GB SD card after i renamed it to SCHUIMG.nbh. Now i don't fully understand what i have to do.
At this point on the guide:
4-connect usb cable except the one for the wp7
boot your device into usb host mode(volume down + camera on Trophy)
and connect the last usb cable.
the screen of your wp7 look like this if all work.
This point is not clear to me, may someone explain better what i have to do and what should happen?
I have an Y-cable and a female-female adaptor. Please tell me what to do.
Thanks for your answers.

Google is your best friend.check this link out. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10187622&postcount=1

Oh, really? Thanks a lot.
Did you read my question? I already checked that guide, and I don't understand the 4th point.

connect all the cables, except the phone (micro USB on the bottom of the phone)
press and hold volume down button with the camera button, then press the power button, the phone should turn on with a grey screen and blue text in the middle that says "Enter USB Host Mode" or something like that..
connect your phone to usb
your screen should look like the photo attached in that thread

Ok, i did everything as you said, and my phone was in "Enter USB host mode". After i connect it to USB it changes to "Loading..." and remains stuck there forever. I also tried with different card readers and different micro SD (always 1 GB or lower), same results.
Notice that my card readers don't have a flashing light so i don't know wether they are working or not. I assume they are working because the screen changes in "Loading" but for some reason it gets stuck in there.
Maybe I should change rom? I'm using a NoDo rom i found on an italian blog since i can't download the ones the xda forum provides, i always get the error "server is busy" or something like that.
Do you have any suggestion? I'm using this rom anyway:
ht tp:// uplo aded .to/file /dud fva8j
(remove spaces)
Edit: the rom i'm using is not a custom rom of course, it's the original NoDo.

hmm, are you sure the ROM you're using is the one for your phone, you know, if your phone is T-Mobile, you have to download tmobile rom... etc
and maybe there isn't enough power for the phone and the reader, try using your wall charger not your computer/laptop
and try asking a friend to download you the roms from xda, especially if you know someone with different ISP
hope it works

I'm absolutely sure the rom is exactly for my phone, and i'm using a wall charger (i also tried with computer though).
I'll try to download the roms from xda in some way, can someone give me a link to a working one? I tried from this list but some links say the file has been removed, others just don't work because the file sharing site is close and so on.

The ones in the link are your only hope, hmm, try pre-nodo if nodo didn't download, or ask someone to upload the one you want.
oh, if you have a flash memory less than 1gb, it could give you better results.. no harm in try.
idk, sorry, but I think that's all I got :/

Please help i bought it for my dad's birthday and aint know what to do ... Please ASAP .. thanks
First, open the side port, and use a paper clip and punch that little hole, it will do a hard reset.
You need at least a 60% charge for recovery mode, and always do updates while connected to the external power cable.
Do a reflash of the upgrade, and do a factory reset and let us know how it went.

i need ur help... dnt know wot to do next.. plz guide me wot to do next to bring it back to life thanks in advance
If the 2.2 file don't work, nothing will! You might be stuck in the "read only" mode. Some have returned their S7 to Dell for repair but at least one person has gotten out of that mode. Not sure if there is a thread on that subject or one got OT. Do a search on "read only".
I've been doing some research into the read only mode. Want try something but need one that is having the problem

Upgrade from custom ICS to official

I would like to upgrade my 2X from Nova HD Rebuild v1.1.0 to Official V30A.
Problem is that I can not install drivers for PC because my custom ROM does not support PC connection,
Then I tried to downgrade it to stock rom, but I forgot to do backup in CWM when I moved from to stock to custom ROM. Thats way I have nothing to come back to. Now I am stucked without any ideas.
Can you please give me some advice?
Thanks
Admins!! I am bit surprised about this post. How come a new member with only 4 posts can open a new (looking for customer care kind of) thread in DEVELOPMENT section?

thanks mivv, I have already tried that. But when I connect my phone to PC, those drivers can not be recognized because my custom ROM does not allowed it

2.Install drivers
3.flash the file miw link to in smartflash.
how easy areĀ“nt that?
dafoxen, I tried removing the battery and Holding downvolume up & down , when booting, but in that case phone wont start.
It only boots when volume down is pressed and then it goes to sw upgrading mode. After connecting to PC nothing happens, no driver installing, no nothing.
I also tried with dubuging mode on and off before booting but its the same

cmahendra is right, the post doesn't belong in the Dev section, if the mods see it I am sure they will move it.
If you HAD to post in the Dev section then maybe you could have posted in the Nova thread?
But.. why don't you just put another rom on your SD card (surely you can take out your SD card and connect it to your PC? Buy an adapter if you need to they cost pennies) and flash it from CWM? Then you can connect to your PC.
Right now I`m searching for stock rom in zip format to try it load with cwm

I have almost exact same problem, but mine has been already update to ICS using smathflash. But for some reason I cannot install Homero's rooted V30a, becuase apparently the opti tool keep saying: USB device not found. I already try LG drivers, switching USB ports, restarting computer, poor device by now I'm sure it feels that has been raped after so many plug in's and off's.
How do I do and how do I know that the computer recognize it in APX mode?

Exactly, you've been here for over 5 years, you should know that questions go in Q&A. And don't try to blame this on cmahendra, he's kinda right. The development section is for Roms, kernels etc. Not questions.
I am not blaming anyone. Everyone has its own opinion and that is great, it only makes this community better.
But still I cant solve my problem
hectormcesar is having one also.
Come on people, we count on you :good:
He probably got the point, I'm a wise guy, we all are, anyway time, to update officially downgrade at least the baseband which is what LG check, I've done it with gb, but ics from topo was denied probably because bb was 28g.......

I flashed this:

To get some sort of life signs, I switched to CP UART, because switching to AP UART didn't change anything. Anyway, I hear the sound that plays when you plug a device in a couple of times, but it shows as an unknown device in the device manager. I also get a little icon in the system tray that says "an unknown device has been plugged in". A couple of seconds later, it disappears, the "disconnect" sound plays and the "unknown device" is no longer shown in the device manager...

Question threads do not belong in Development, you only post threads in there when you've got developments to share. Moved to Q&A where all question threads should be posted.
Please be civil to each other please as you should be helping not criticising each other. Also reason Golub can post in Development is because he's been a member since before the 10 post rule was ever implemented.

I tried to install the drivers but I got a message saying they weren't installed correctly. I tried a few times, restarting my computer and nothing will work. Please help.

So I tried a different cable and same thing. Computer won't recognize the device. It does charge though so I guess that's good. My computer is saying there is an error with my device. I have an idea, if I go to recovery mode and wipe everything and then try to plug it in, will it recognize my device? I'll make sure to make a backup before I do that

Do you have access to different computer, any PC , just trying to find out if there is nothing wrong with phone. Seems to me like PC or cable problem but i want to be sure. I had similar problem with note 10.1. I change 4 cables then finally got one working. If all file you can try to wipe just make sure you will have working rom in case if that is hardware or usb port in your phone not working. Also you can try flash rom true Mobile Odin.

I can't answer this question because i personally never done this but people claimed they done this. Just search more in XDA forum if this can be done on At&t S5. I know for fact people done this on at&t S3 back in days, but S5 have lock bootloader and i don't know if this will affect this any way.. That was just suggestion if you willing to try, like i said i don't know if this will work.

It's definitely not the pc. This other pc is also not recognizing it even after drivers are installed. It says the device has malfunctioned. So I'm guessing it's something wrong with my phone. I would bring it back to AT&T but I have to get it back to stock before that so I can keep my warranty.

[Q] Help Me Fix a Hard Brick! [SOLVED]

I have no clue what the hell happened. The Note 4 locked up earlier today and refused to reboot at first. Eventually it did come back on. I came home and unplugged it then the screen went black. I figure I bumped the power button getting it, well, apparently not.
I've tried pulling the battery and every button combination. It doesn't do ****. I plugged it in to the PC and found that it shows "QHSUSB__BULK". Did some hunting and apparently that means it isn't totally dead. I found some info here talking about recovering from a brick on the Note 3. Problem is I don't have an unbrick image.
So.... uhh basically what do I do now?
I need a unbrick.img from COD6 so if someone could please help with that. According to the Note 3 thread:
Just run this Unbrick Image Creator in recovery & it'll create "/sdcard/Unbrick_Files" in your internal SD card.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That is for the Note 3 so I have no idea if it will make a proper image for the Note 4.
EDIT: According to shabbypenguin that ought to give the proper unbrick image. So can someone here running the COD6 bootloader please run that and upload the file for me?
So for future reference, anyone that may need this can try. I take no credit for this. Most of this is a copy/paste from the Note 3 thread.
What do you need?
DO NOT TRY THIS ON ANOTHER NOTE 4 MODEL WITHOUT THE PROPER UNBRICK IMAGE!
- Hard Bricked Device: T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (N910T)
- Micro SD Card: 4/8/16/32 GB micro SD card
- Unbrick Image: working dump with the same bootloader/version
- Image Writer: native commands on Linux/MacOSx or Win32 Disk Imager on Windows
How to recover?
1- Download Unbrick Image for the COD6 bootloader from here or here
2- If you're using Windows, download Win32 Disk Imager
3- Backup all files on the micro SD card you're using
4- Write the Unbrick Image to your micro SD card using Win32 Disk Imager or Linux/MacOSX commands
5- Remove battery, Insert micro SD card & then the battery
6- Hold Power + Home + Volume Down to enter Download Mode by bootloader on SD card
7- Flash Stock firmware via Odin
YOU MAY NEED TO TEST MICRO SD CARDS WITH DIFFERENT TYPES/SIZES & FORMAT AS EXFAT BEFORE WRITING AN UNBRICK IMAGE ACCORDING TO YOUR BOOTLOADER!
I'd charge it for a while. Take out the battery now and then and try to get into download mode.

I have no clue what the hell happened. The Note 4 locked up earlier today and refused to reboot at first. Eventually it did come back on. I came home and unplugged it then the screen went black. I figure I bumped the power button getting it, well, apparently not.
I've tried pulling the battery and every button combination. It doesn't do ****. I plugged it in to the PC and found that it shows "QHSUSB__BULK". Did some hunting and apparently that means it isn't totally dead. I found some info here talking about recovering from a brick on the Note 3. Problem is I don't have an unbrick image.
So.... uhh basically what do I do now?
I need a unbrick.img from COD6 so if someone could please help with that. According to the Note 3 thread:
That is for the Note 3 so I have no idea if it will make a proper image for the Note 4.
EDIT: According to shabbypenguin that ought to give the proper unbrick image. So can someone here running the COD6 bootloader please run that and upload the file for me?

To be honest that has yet to work for anyone. Call up and replace the phone.

The battery was at 100% it isn't that. It is quite obviously a hard brick. It won't do anything besides show a black screen, no response at all.

Obviously it hasn't helped anyone with a Note 4, we don't have an unbrick image. Now if you're trying to say it hasn't helped anyone, including those with other devices, you're full of crap. This method has unbricked numerous devices that actually have an unbrick image.
If you were not going to help by simply running the file and uploading the results then don't bother responding.

Are you not in the note 4 thread.. Why would I give a crap about another device. So again does not exist.
I just ran it for you but have no idea if it will work.
Unzip it to use.

I think everyone has missed asking the most important question.....
What Rom were you running when this happened?
I don't think you have a hard brick.

Hardware failure maybe.

First, thanks for taking the time to run it and upload it. Unfortunately thanks to your unbrick image along with another guys I have determined that either:
A. The phone hates like all of my SD cards
B. Something else is wrong with the device than even just a hard brick.

Unfortunately it didn't boot. I think something further is wrong with the device, ie hardware. I do know when plugged in it was showing the "QHSUSB__BULK" when plugged in. When the SD was installed and I attempted to go to DL mode it disappeared so it was trying to do SOMETHING. Again I think it is hardware.

I was running CM12. Whatever the latest nightly was, IIRC 6/10. It was either that or 6/6. I was also running the Xposed for 5.1 6/9 version that fixed it with CM versions after ~ 6/3.

I think it was. Even with the unbrick image it wouldn't boot. It did try to do something but I think because of some hardware failure it wouldn't even boot that.

I definitely suggest just flashing the stock Rom in Odin and then calling in to get a replacement.
Good ole cm12 strikes again.

Thats what happens when you venture away from TW to long on a Samsung device! [emoji38] [emoji38] [emoji38]
