Hard-Bricked Galaxy S4 GT-I9506

[Dimitris Petsiotis]

Hi, yesterday I wanted to install the Galaxy S5's Camera app on my S4. I followed the steps (changing stock camera settings and flashing zip via TWRP), but following these steps, I forgot (but I knew) that the removal of the stock Camera app was needed. When I rebooted, the phone stuck in ''Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9506'' and I said that the phone was soft-bricked, and I left it for a while, before deciding to flash the ROM via Odin. When I returned 30 mins later, the battery was not drained for sure (it was at 100% before never booting again), but it was turned off, it wasn't charging, the notification light wasn't turning on, no recovery mode, no download mode. I have not found any ways to solve the problem and I am still wondering how the phone turned off itself and never on again. I removed the battery, I did everything. That sucks. Please answer. Please.

Hard bricks are a tough nut to crack. You may have to consider a JTAG service, but there is no guarantee that it will work.
