[Q] Hard Bricked my s3 mini gti8190

[imvyzel]

Well i hard bricked my phone I think? I tryed to use the s5 styled rom stock Virginty V14 and I updated to the latest version of the baseband anr6 or something because that was in the rom setup while in twrp 2.7.1.0, I was on a pacman 4.4.4 custom rom before that, and I think it changed my normal bootlogo screen to i890t? instead of i890. I cannot boot into recovery anymore, ive tryed flashing over cyanogenmod 11 from novafusion, but nothing, ive tryed to flash recoverys, and nothing just a bootloop, this is the first time i've ever had this problem and I was just wondering how I fix it and if it can be fixed, I can still get into odin mode if theres a file or anything for download to fix this? I'm not sure why it did this, just need my phone back asap, any help would be appreciated

As you can get Odin to work, install original firmware from sammobile

Already tryed that, no luck, tryed to change the param folder too idk what to do

look here.
Put battery out and in.
Download laFleur ROM, boot into download-mode and flash it.
After that, flash custom recovery like TWRP from Android-Andi.
After that flash any custom ROM you like.

HTH

So it seems I was flashing the wrong region country firmware its working again thanks was hard to find the new Zealand firmware haha, now my first splash boot is still like a TV do I flash the param.LFS file for gt-i8190t model and will I have to fresh install the stock firmware again?

So instead of getting the Gt-I8190 and samsung boot image and animation you have some buzz image like a tv, do this go to novafusion .pl I can't post links yet <.< s3 Mini--> Extras --> Original Boot logo download the correct one for your device, you have to install this via TWRP it should fix it

You may have to flash it a couple of times if it doesn't work the first time

Install the original firmware. If that doesn't work, using Odin install clockworkmod recovery and then install cm11.... Once you install cwm recovery remember to format the media and data!!
