I'm Not Even Sure What This Is SONY XPERIA Z2 TABLET -VERIZON- POSSIBLE BRICK?

Hey guys, please forgive me for any bad etiquette or lack of information (any information I can provide is available upon request if I leave anything out). I am new to forums in general and especially to XDA, which seems like a good place to get help.

I recently purchased a Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet from Craigslist under the assumption it was a fully unlocked tablet not associated to a carrier. Turns out it was a Verizon Z2 tablet. I dislike Verizon with a firey passion and without getting into too many details, I'm fairly certain they won't help me because a) this tablet wasn't purchased through them as a customer and b) Verizon and I have bad history (unauthorized account modification, shady charges, etc.)

So I thought I'd do my best to make the tablet mine since the asshole who sold it to me has ceased all contact and I don't know how to get a hold of him anymore. No receipt and a data-less tablet.

Anyway, I successfully rooted the tablet and began installing apps that I installed for my G4 when I rooted it (SuperSU, Adaway, Greenify, etc.)

Things were going well but I realised I wanted anything that had to do with Verizon removed from the tablet so I was going to flash Cyanogenmod onto it with a guide I found online. Now rooting and installing custom recoveries was familiar territory and I did these flawlessly. It had TWRP and I made a backup of the system -no Nandroid, sadly-and I began the flashing process. The process said it completed without issue and I went to reboot my device. Enter my current situation:

The device, when I attempted to turn it on, all it did was vibrate constantly until I let go of the power button. Attempting to enter recovery mode (green LED, power + vol down) it showed me, instead of TWRP, a very basic recovery mode with basic options. "Continue booting up", "enter safe mode", "system recovery", and "power down". I tried entering safe mode and it just shut back down, I tried doing a system recovery and it shut down. The only time I ever see the "SONY" logo is if I'm entering this mode. I can enter what I assume is "fastboot mode" (power + vol up and plugging the device into a PC). Nothing on the screen but the LED is blue. I am trying to find guides to restore it if I can and it all looks promising but the only things I know how to really do are root and install custom recovery. I know there are PC tools I can use to send commands to it while it's in fastboot, or send commands in general I just don't know where to begin.

Does anyone know how to fix this? I know it was from Verizon, which sucks, and I know the problem most likely occurred with the attempted flashing of Cyanogenmod. I think I read somewhere I might have done something regarding mismatching kernal numbers. I couldn't find a way to unlock the bootloader so I assume that had something to do with it too.

If someone could give me a guide to restore it to at least its stock ROM where I can begin rooting and installing a custom recovery again, that would be great. Even better would be just flashing a ROM on there that doesn't need Verizon or being able to take it to a stage where it's unlocked and the only evidence it was ever with a carrier is the Verizon logo on the back. I'd really hate to think I wasted money on this and now I'm at a dead end because of a mistake I made. This was supposed to be a gift for my mom on her birthday which is coming up soon. So if anyone knows anything, or has a guide where we can at least get the thing bootable again and I'll just try and deal with a rooted locked device, that would be great.

Thanks for considerations,

Did i brick my phone?

Could you guys help me?

After sometime using XtreStoLite INTL 2.2 im getting this error.



Is it a hardware problem? I tried to flash a new rom and a new bootloader but didnt work.

Hard Brick on Motorola XT925

Well, it just doesn't boot, keys combinations doesn't work anymore and my computer only recognizes the phone if I connect it without the battery plugged ( disassembled ), then the LED turns on green and nothing else happens.
I downgraded to the ICS Version of the device and worked perfectly fine, I used it for about 2 months, but when I noticed the lack of functionality compared to 4.4.1 KitKat I decided to upgrade it via OTA. I downloaded the JB Rom version via OTA to prepare my device again for KitKat, "Install Now", but when the flashing process ended it never turned on again, I almost tried everything without finding a solution. But, when I was trying to do something by my self I noticed something; I can't access to the phone with the battery plugged, but when I remove the battery from the connector and plug it into my PC the LED turns on green and the computer detects that there's a device plugged in without showing any dialog box of which devices is.
If there's any help I would appreciate it. Thanks

[Possible Brick?] I Dun Goofed

Funny story.
I was attempting to use ODIN v3.09 to change the partition table on my SG 2 Skyrocket (SGH-i727)
Now realizing I shouldn't have, ODIN failed to complete the flash with the same recovery. (CWM v6.0.5.1)
As of right now, pressing the power button DOES NOTHING. It no longer vibrates when it turns on. It can't even turn on I believe. ODIN, Windows or Heimdall cannot detect the device. I believe that I may have just ended up breaking this. Would anyone be able to tell me how (if there is one) I may get this stupid thing to work again?

I have a Nandroid Backup before I did this.

EDIT: Now that I think of it, it's possible that it no longer has its booter xD. Would I be able to restore that Backup?

Danger of hard brick

Danger of hard brick
Mind you, the you that you have installed the version 5.1 and you please do downgrade.

If possible downgrade and works CORRECTLY, but does not drop the bootloader version. (Motorola apparently not contemplated back the bootloader)
Well, if after downgrade accept an OTA, OTA is flash the bootloader and, being superior version, fails, result: this just corrupt. The phone turns off and no more lights. If the computer connect this is recognized as QHUSB_BULK. That while you have battery, since neither charge.
There are many moto g afflicted with the same problem, and have been waiting to release the BLANKFLASHFILES files needed to revive the phone. Unfortunately it seems that Motorola only thing it does is send to the affected to a technical service, with subsequent payment of repair, as it seems to those files could change the IMEI, etc.
So you know, maybe not downgrade, but if ye do not accept any OTA, the cell dies.
I speak from experience,The announcement is made

[Q] Soft brick T-Mobile M919, need help!

Bone stock M919 (as far as I know - got the phone used at NK2 IIRC), OTA updated to OH3. Was having some issues, decided to Odin (3.10.7) same firmware (M919UVUFOH3_M919TMBFOH3_M919UVUFOH3_HOME.tar.md5 from sammobile.com) over.

After rebooting, device goes into odin mode with "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again."
I tried both Kies v2 and v3 and neither is able to detect it in the emergency recovery mode

Also tried 3 different USB cables and all the ports on my laptop, with no results.

Triforce to 5.1 JFLTE-GPE to Soft brick

I hate to be the guy asking about a soft bricked phone but I can't seem to find anything in the other soft bricked threads that helps me.

I was trying to go from Triforce to 5.1 JFLTE-GPE. When I flashed I had no APN. I read that factory resetting through recovery then reflashing could help with that but it didn't seem to help. I managed to do that 2 or 3 times without any effect, then CWM informed me on a reboot that I might've lost root. I told it to try to recover root and rebooted. No change. I go to start CWM again and it doesn't start. I used ODIN to renew root and reinstall CWM.

Since then, I'm getting errors any time I try to flash a new rom. I can't seem to side load a rom from Odin either. I keep getting FAIL(Auth) errors. L720_OD2_Pre-Rooted_Firmware.tar doesn't work for me. I'm unsure if I should be trying to flash other versions instead. I'm using Odin 3.07.

When I use CWM recovery to try and directly flash Zips the 3 that I've tried always fail. Half the time it's telling me it's a bad signature. When I toggle signature verification it fails.

I have no idea what's going on anymore. Help?

Soft Brick + [KERNEL][0719][5.1.1/BOFE][3.10.61] V Kernel

Hello, Newb here so go easy.

I have a Samsung s6 Edge on the Sprint network SM-G925P and have soft bricked it. Originally on build ol1 Lollipop 5.1.1

Here is the rundown, I rooted the phone with ping pong to be able to utilize Linux etc. Everything was working great for over a week then the phone gave an error and forced a restart.

Once restarted it just stuck on the Samsung Screen, went to boot recovery via vup, home and power. Wiped to factory settings. After the wipe it was stuck on the Powered by Android Screen.

ADB'd TWRP on to the phone, realized the phone wasn't mounted in any fashion. Mounted data, cache, and system went to reboot and was informed the phone did not have an OS and was not Rooted.

Then attempted to do this [KERNEL][0719][5.1.1/BOFE][3.10.61] V Kernel

Followed the directions on this http://forum.xda-developers.com/spri...-root-t3153396 downloaded the kernel from here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=35511 flashed the kernel via ODIN 3.10.6 clean clear easy install.

Rebooted phone, stuck on the powered by Android Screen - boot looping, playing 5 tone sounds repeatedly every 30-45 seconds. Allowed the phone to run this way 3 times for 12-15 minutes each with no change.

And lastly now in the top left of the screen it states "Kernel is not seandroid enforcing"

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Help with options after brick

I recently soft bricked my phone. I cannot get the software running to fix this issue, therefor I am giving up. I have a couple of questions.
1) Could I put my 2 year contract sim card into an unlocked phone and run it?(just reassuring, as I don't want to buy something and not be able to use it)
2) If so, do adapters for micro sim to sim exist, or can I buy a micro sim phone?

**NOTE** I apologize if anything in this question is confusing, or downright obvious, as I am kind of disgruntled for various reasons.

Can flashing the wrong System App in TI HARD brick your phone

or cause problems (ie missing sim card) even after a factory reset of custom ROM?

Is my Galaxy S3 I747 a hard brick now?

So after trying to unroot and stock my phone, I messed up using this method: http://www.androidrootz.com/2012/10/...s3-no.html?m=1 / So my S3 did unroot and stock it, but the thing about that is, it stocked it all the way back to android version 4.0.4. I try to update it myself cause I'm too stupid and caught up in what I was doing to remember the part where carriers actually give out updates from time to time, so after some time trying to manually update it, using the volume down + home method, going to the reboot / Wipe cache / Wipe Dalvik cache - Data / etc, I chose all 4 options, once choosing reboot phone, that is when the phone seem gone. Trying to reboot, the phone was stuck at the SAMSUNG logo with the LED light changing colors, the battery slowly but surely getting hotter. Trying a few more times to boot it, I've come to the same conclusion.
So... is it repairable, or nah?
