How To Unbrick Any Android Phone

One of the
greatest fears of every Android user is the fear of “bricking my device”. It’s  no longer news, the rates at which Android
phones are been bricked is beyond imagination. From the info I’ve gathered so
far, the major problem of any android phone is bricking the device. Some of you
will bare me witness that some bricked android device are been fixed while some
are not been fixed. 

But for those
who already bricked their Android phones and don’t know what to do next, I’ll
like to summon  you to draw your learning
chair closer, let’s see how we can  unbrick it.
I’ll quickly
share with you two interesting ways you can unbrick your device, even though
you are been told by your device Engr that there is no more hope for the
device.

How Can I Un-brick
My Bricked Android Phone?
First method
1. Get a phone of the same type that is not bricked
2. Boot the good phone into recovery mode (hold volume up + power button while
the phone is off)
3. Go to Backup and restore
4. Select Backup then yes to confirm
5. After Backup is complete, copy the backup file / folder from the SD card of
the good phone to the SD card of the bricked phone (maintain the file path)
6. Boot the bricked phone into recovery mode
7. Go to backup and restore
8. Select Restore
9. Select the backup you just copied and click yes to confirm
10. Your Android  phone should come back to life

If  perhaps your Android phone proves stubborn,
then try the next method

Second Method
One Click Unbrick Method

What You Need
==>Java installed on your computer or
download it here
==>One Click Unbrick tool or download it
here
How Can I Unbrick It Using This Method?

==>First
of all extract the OneClick.jar file you downloaded (Right click the file and
select Extract) 
==>Now
you will get a folder named OneClick
==>Copy the file OneClick.jar (the one
from which you extracted the folder) and paste it into “OneClick>heimdalloneclick>resources>HeimdallPackage“
==>That’s
it, now run the file “oneclickloader” which is on same folder
==>Dialog
will open and installation will be completed (grant access if it asks)

==>Now
after installation, you’ll see the software running
==>Connect
your phone via USB and click on “Unsoft Brick” to unbrick your phone.
That is it, your Android phone should now be back to life. Any Question?

    • I think it depends on the network you love. I'll suggest you go for MTN or Etisalat network. Get your data from trusted 3rd party agent since it's more cheaper than the conventional data sales.

  4. Ok. Another thing. Does airtel bis data work on ipad or glo bis? I'm a heavy internet user,I want smthin affordable and sustainable.

  7. Please Prof. I subscribe with my android phone to GLO bis but GLO is saying I should remove my battery after 1hr dat my activation is still pending. Pls wat do I do? Thanks

    • Use the first method for your F7. It's only when there is no head up before you can use the second method. First method will fix your device.

  8. Baba Yomi i greet you,,,Im one of ur true Fan…please i wanna Root my Samsung Galaxy S5,please give me necessary guild…Thanks,,,i awaits ur response here..

  9. Prof, Thanks for your good deeds, Please how do I change the imei of Infinix x530, mobile uncle and engineer mode is not working for it as it is not showing the CDI Information tab..Please help

    • Since it's not showing cds information, then it simply means it cannot be changed over installations of these apps (Mobile Uncle, Engineerin mode.apk, and Terminal emulator) with the use of an hardware box just like Samsung user.
      However, I'll love if you can visit the samsung thread and call the guy who changed for samsung user if your infinix x530 can be changed via his octupus box

    • Thanks Prof, I will do just that. I also have a techno f7 but I mistakenly deleted a music player app and so my music player stops once a while, I know you wil ask me to copy from same model but how do I go about it?

  10. I need your help with a techno phantom a+ that is rooted and I mistakenly unistall an inbuilt music player supporting file/app, how will I go about fixing it by using another techno f7 phone?

  11. prof is the back up file the same as the stock ROM. Can I install clockworkmod in a bricked phone put a custom ROM in the phone even when it is not rooted.

    • It is thesame as stock rom. No it has to be installed before your bricked it. In a case like this, you can only install SPflash tool and flash cwmrecovery.img to your bricked phone in order to make an headway

  12. Hello Mr Prof, I need help with my Galaxy S5. It says my baseband version is "unknown" and my IMEI shows "null/null". Would the methods you posted above work on my device? I'd appreciate any help. Thank you.

  13. hey mr. Yomi im very curious when it comes to android devices i recently bricked a galaxy y s5360 android 2.3.6 While trying to install a new jellybean status bar and i got a brick. My usb port is faulty and cant use any of the methods provided by the xda developers using odin and i dont know any one who has a similar phone like mine since they all upgraded to new jellybean phones. PLEASE DO YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS FOR ME….?

  14. Prof I flashed semaphore kernel with odin to my Samsung galaxy s gt-19000 running on android version 2.1update1 Éclair, since den it av been hanging on Samsung boot up logo…

  15. Thanks for your sharing
    I just wonder on thing. I know all manufacturers wouldn't give you warranty if your phone is bricked but i don't know whether they would continue this warranty if i unbrick my phone. They would discover that your phone used to be bricked

    Jio TV app

  16. Thank you for your good information. This is definitely what I'm looking for my problem. You are amazing. My Android phone sometime has problem but now I can solve it.

  17. Prof. I greet you ..please I have a techno k7 That Is booting only to hois screen and refuses to complete. Please what should I do?. I tried the first method but it’s still giving me the same result.please help.
