Resurrecting Motorola W210 is simple. Phone is auto powered on with charger connected; battery presence is not required. Pin TMODE has to be connected to GND in order to enable JTAG connection.
Please note, MSM6000 draws power from JTAG pins, thus board can be detected via JTAG even without any power supplied. But for successful resurrection the power (battery or charger) is required. Thus when resurrection is complete don’t forget to disconnect phone from RIFF BOX to de-power it completely.

07.10.2011    Samsung Galaxy II, OMAP4430 version supported (Samsung i9100G, Samsung i9108)

Samsung I9108 is based on the OMAP4430 Processor (Cortex-A9 Dual-Core). JTAG pads are very small; professional experience in soldering is required to connect wires to the JTAG interface. There is a big variety of versions of Galaxy II devices: GT-I9100, GT-I9100G, GT-I9100L, GT-I9100M, GT-I9100T, GT-I9101, GT-I9103, GT-I9108, GT-I9188, and maybe more. Some of them are based on different hardware platform – the Samsung S5PV310 (Cortex-A9 Dual-Core). Thus make sure first which exact hardware version you have on hands.

Note, one simple way to connect over JTAG – connect USB cable to PC and insert battery. In this case phone is automatically powered on.
Current DLL is still a beta one. It will work only with phones which have killed X-Loader.

To resurrect Samsung I9108:

  •  Solder JTAG cable to Samsung I9108 JTAG pads;
  •  Connect USB cable to phone and PC;
  •  Insert battery;
  •  Make sure Samsung I9108 is selected in the list of models;
  •  Make sure a fixed TCK frequency is selected;
  •  Click Resurrect button;
  •  Wait till software signals a successful operation completion;
  •  Disconnect USB cable, de-solder JTAG wires;

Now phone is in bootable condition, that is, even if it does not start up normally, you can flash it using original Samsung downloader software to restore it to the working state.

To enter download mode:

  •  Disconnect PC cable;
  •  Insert battery;

RIFF JTAG – HTC Wizard 200 Unbrick – Boot repair supported

Posted on by

25.08.2011  HTC Wizard 200 Unbrick – Boot repair supported

Resurrection of HTC Wizard 200 is simple. Battery must be connected in order to establish JTAG connection.
Current resurrector works with devices based on G4 MDOC chip.
Resurrector can repair IPL and SPL areas (which areas to repair you can select in popup window).
Please note: DiskOnChip G4 memory has security features, due to which there is a risk of permanently blocking the access to the flash memory while re-flashing the IPL area. Thus be very carefull not to interrupt IPL repair process (in case you have selected IPL area to be repaired).
In case your device has permanently blocked MDOC memory you will see this error:

****************************************************************
Detected a Not Initialized FLASH1 Chip ID: 0x0400/0xFBFF
ERROR: Selected FLASH Chip was not initialized by the DCC Loader
****************************************************************
This can happen due to unknown protection keys used or due to permanently blocked MDOC chip. If latter is true we advise you to solder a new flash memory chip or throw this phone away to the trash bin.
To resurrect HTC Wizard:

  •  Solder JTAG cable to HTC Wizard JTAG pads;
  •  Insert battery and connect USB cable to phone and PC;
  •  Make sure HTC Wizard is selected in the list of models;
  •  Press Power On key
  •  Click Resurrect button;
  •  Wait till software signals a successful operation completion;
  •  Disconnect USB cable, de-solder JTAG wires;

Now phone is in bootable condition, that is, even if it does not start up normally, you can flash it using known flashing methods.
To enter download mode:

  •  Disconnect PC cable;
  •  Insert battery;
  •  Hold ‘Camera’ key and press ‘Power ON’ button.

Samsung I9023 is based on the S5PCxxx Processor (ARM core is Cortex-A8).
Note, one simple way to connect over JTAG – connect USB cable to PC and insert battery. In this case phone is automatically powered on. But note, in very rare cases it is possible that you will have to hold Power On key during initial connection.
Current resurrector has two different versions of primary boot loaders (PBL) embedded. This depends on hardware version of your phone which boot to use, thus in case of failure (cannot enter download mode after resurrection) of first loader try selecting another.
In case after resurrection (after you have tried with both boot versions) the download mode is not initiated (LCD remains blank) do repeat resurrection with ‘Clone Gremlin zone’ option checked.

To resurrect Samsung I9023:

  • Solder JTAG cable to Samsung I9023 JTAG pads;
  • Connect microUSB cable to phone and PC;
  • Insert battery;
  • Make sure Samsung I9023 is selected in the list of models;
  • Make sure a fixed TCK frequency is selected;
  • Click Resurrect button;
  • Wait till software signals a successful operation completion;
  • Disconnect USB cable, de-solder JTAG wires;

Now phone is in bootable condition, that is, even if it does not start up normally, you can flash it using original Samsung downloader software to restore it to the working state.
