[Q] Hard bricked G2 won't appear in /dev/sdb* on linux topic

I was trying this to fix a hard-bricked G2 I just recieved:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2582142

The device is in the following state:
No download mode
No recovery mode
Shows qhsusb_bulk in lsusb -v
I don't know much more about it (e.g. I don't know if it was rooted or what type of ROM was on it).

I need to unplug the battery by removing the back cover to have a chance to reboot it. The first boot after that it shows the LG logo, then a blank screen (back lit but no text).
(UPDATE: Pressing the power button 8 seconds also reboots the phone without having to unplug the battery).

When I wire it up to my Arch Linux computer here is what the command `dmesg` shows:

Code:

Is there anything that could be done to fix these Buffer I/O errors so I can mount the phone (and continue with the FIX tutorial posted above)?

Anyone able to shed some lights on the meaning of these lines would be of great help in my quest of learning how to unbrick my phone.

Note: when connected to the computer the blank screen goes in a repeating cycle of being back lit for 1 second then no backlights for 1 second. The cycle stops (with backlights) when unplugging the phone.

[GAME][2.3+] Hard Hex (Hexagon tetris without analogs) topic

Hard Hex

The aim of the game is to control the hexagon, which collects falling figures in a row. The speed of the game is constantly accelerating and chances to keep moving of the hexagon are too little. It is necessary to accelerate the turn of the hexagon as the speed of the game accelerates.You must stand on the gaming stage longer than other participants.

Check this out please. Some people said that that game good and interesting.
Please give some feedbacks. Whats good/bad etc.

[Q] [q] hard brick topic

Hello Dev
Maybe I was too tired If I have to read entire post here to see if there is someone post a problems match with mind. ( I am sorry ). No one match with my cases.
My phone has been root.
My problem is I bricked my phone after flashing cwm from a similiar phone, because I need cwm to make nandroid backup.
My stock cwm can not make nandroid backup. It's only backup data and system only.
Tried using online nandroid and the result is I have no boot and recovery image.
So I search all of thread from all android community but none of there discussion my phone.
And then I found very similiar phone named is Hisense EG970, my phone is Esia Andromaxx-D( also called as Esia Maxpic). Both is have same spec like this :
RAM 1GB
ROM 4GB
OS Android 4.1
CPU Qualcomm MSM8625Q, 1.2GHz
2G: GSM: 900/1800/1900MHZ
3G: CDMA1X EVDO：800MHZ
Sim Card Dual SIM Card Dual Standby
Service Provide Unlocked
Size 5.0 Inch
Screen IPS, capacitive touch screen
Resolution 960 x 540 pixels
Screen Color 1600K Colors
Dual Camera 0.3MP front camera, 8.0MP back camera with flashlight,up to 3264 X 2448 pixels resolution
Battery 2000mAh.
My phone : (include spec above)
Model number E1000
Front camera 2 MP, Back camera 8 MP with flashlight
GPU Adreno 203
Build number TBE595621_8961_V000117
OS android 4.1.2
Kernel Version 3.4.0-perf-g197915f-00004-ga4b8a8f ccadmin@BUILD12
MY stock Rom is same as K Touch Lotus 2
I found hisense EG970 thread( Chinesse forum) about cwm recovery for their phone. Because I think this is the same with mind so I flashed their cwm.
I don't know I am stupid or not but after that my phone brick. (Hard Brick). Three combination button not effect anymore and my PC never detect it again. I tried to connect it with original usb cable without battery while pushing vol + and - together and insert battery but still not appears anymore in my Windows 7 PC. ( NO THREE FINGERS WORK,CAN'T ENTER BOOTLOADER MODE ALSO CAN'T ENTER RECOVERY MODE, NO PC DETECTED)
I am sorry for long explanation.
So I need your help, anyone here.
Can I get my stock cwm back?
very grateful if someone would help me, thanks in advance

Cannot boot phone, just hard shuts off topic

I've had issues with this phone where if I take it off of the charger, It'll just completely turn off.
Sometimes also just with random usage even on charger
Now, its not even booting up, it'll hit the AT&T boot splash and immediately turn off.
Before that it would finish the AT&T boot splash and then turn off.

Recovery mode works fine, so does Download mode.
I've used the Heimdall One-Click program and while it runs fine, doesn't help.

It's running Gingerbread iirc.
EDIT: Also battery charges up just fine, and yes I've searched around the forums.

[Q] I know what you're thinking, but I'm afraid my G3 is hard bricked topic

This started with my trying Online Nandroid Backup from the Play store, which I've used on my previous Android phones. I made a backup with it (I had TWRP v2.8.2.0) while Jasmine 4.0 was up and running, and then I booted to recovery, made a regular backup directly in recovery, then wiped and tried to restore the backup that Online Nandroid created. I saw something in the restore log about uboot partition. It restored the rest of my partitions fine. Then I made a bad choice and I told TWRP to reboot. I thought I should still be able to get into TWRP even if the ROM won't boot, but negative.

The only thing I can get into is the menu to choose Factory Reset, Wipe Cache, Power Off, Continue Boot, and I think there's one other option.

I've tried them all. I've tried leaving the battery out for more than a minute and then trying again. No matter what, after a brief show of the LG logo, the screen goes dark and the notification LED toggles between green and orange repeatedly.

No ROM booting, not even starting, no recovery at all. The computer doesn't see it in this state. I've tried LGMLauncher.exe, LG Flash Tool 2014, and as I expected nothing will see it, which makes sense.

Any ideas? I expect I'm SOL.

Thanks for your time.

[Q] Galaxy S5 - Factory / Hard Reset per PC topic

Hello there

Is it possible to reset my S5 (SM-G900F) with my PC. Because my S5 won't start anymore. Not in Recovery, Download or Normal Mode. The only thing it shows is the: "Samsung Galaxy S5 Powered by Android" and in the top left corner "RECOVERYS BOOTING.....", but nothing happens.
