[SOLVED]Nexus brick. OMAP Flash Tutorial in post 10

Afwasmassi · Oct 7, 2012

Hello guys, my nexus died

I had some problems with a rom so i decided to restore a previous backup(bigxies JB rom) which was working when i backed it up ofc.
Did the backup and hit reboot in cwm, nothing.
wont turn on wont get into fastboot no download mode nothing. when i plug in a charger no charge animation, nothing.
i tried flashing a stock rom with the nexus toolkit but it keeps saying waiting for adb. nothing happens.
windows doesnt recognize it either when i plug it in my pc..
any ideas? it seems that i am screwed

you have to install the correct drivers first, if you can get into fastboot then you can return to back stock

can you get into odin mode with vol-+power, if not then search this forum for "omap flash"

i cant get in to odin mode either, the phone basically behaves like it doesnt have a battery, no sign of life whatsoever.
Ill search omap flash, thx

when i connect my phone to the pc it shows up as omap4440 in device manager, then it disconnects and reconnects every 2 seconds..

Afwasmassi · Oct 7, 2012

I tried a omapflash program i found but it keeps saying waiting for phone to connect

Afwasmassi · Oct 7, 2012

quick update, managed to install the omap4440 drivers and reflashed my OMAP 4440, now i can get into download mode

Afwasmassi · Oct 7, 2012

good news guys, my phone works again, i am very happy.
thx for the omap flash tip!!

For people that might encounter the same.
download https://rapidshare.com/files/1168981...Flash_tuna.zip and unpack the zip on desktop or w/e.
now when your omap4440 is recognized by device manager quickly double click and install drivers(you have about 2 seconds) select search drivers on pc and select desktop(drivers are in the above download.
When thr drivers are installed run the *.bat file in the download
after that u can get into download mode and odin flash a stock rom.

so it's confirmed, it works at least for download mode. THANKS!!!

Can you please confirm that fastboot/bootloader is still available?

Afwasmassi · Oct 8, 2012

Yes i can confirm that. Everything is working as it should!
Actually in my case i didnt even have to odin flash anything. After omap reflash everything was working. Download/fastboot even my old rom booted fine.

maybe sbl or fat32 boot partition (x-loader, uboot, kernel) was missing.

one more thing: how long did omapflash took to complete?

DynamicRam · Oct 8, 2012

I am glad you fixed it

Afwasmassi · Oct 8, 2012

About 9 seconds mate

after that it said touch any key to continue but all it did was repeat the process so after 3 times i was like ****it. And yeah i dont think major files were corrupt in my case. Just some inportant ones.
Im also glad i fixed it and i hope this will be usefull for sb else.

i am quite sure sb will need it. i've been collecting information on dead boot state on our device, and will probably try to make it into a small guide.
