bricked HD

So, lets start at the begining.
Today I was testing the new android build from 20nov.
Everything went fine until restarting my phone into windows. The phone did boot properly, exept the screen stayed off.
Touch input did work.
After a couple of restarts everything was back to normal and i picked up the testing from the android build again.
However, a later on the same problem arised. This time more persistent.
Also the led wouldn't go on anymore when charging the phone...
After 30 tries of rebooting a decided to hard-reset the phone by holding Vol down+up and power. Then waiting a while (because i couldn't see what was happening) and then pressed vol up to hard reset.
Then waited like 5 minutes and then tried to boot again by holding the power button.... Nothing
Then waited another 5 minutes, pulled out the battery and tried another boot.
No succes either.
Bottom-line now.
The phone is dead, won't react to anything, no charging no booting.
What can I do???
No stock rom, so i guess no warranty???
Really hope someone can help!!!

Ouch , you're right about the no guarantee rule but i don't know what u could do ..
Best of luck pal.

Maybe anyone got any experience with garanty+ a flashed rom.
Who brought therte phone back with a flashed rom without telling HTC and got their warranty?
Would be great if that worked (a)

Can you do anything with phone? Try taking battery out for 24hrs before re-inserting it and attempting to reboot. If you can still do nothing with device you may have bricked it and only thing which can be done is to return it, though warranty void. Have you tried asking within Android thread to see if anyone else has had similar issues?

Thanks for the battery tip, i'll try that!
about an hour ago i did get a little response from my phone. It vibrated after pushing the on button!
And then nothing....
This only happens when the phone is not connected to usb(charger or pc, no difference).
I did post my problem in the android thread, however no response.
I'll also PM phhusson about my problem. Would be nasty if more people would brick their phone.
Still like to hear some experiences with the garanty-service of HTC if anyone has got any

if it is so "dead" nobody can say if the ROM was original or not. let them think is a hardware problem and replace yr device!!

Well that is probably what i'm gonna do/try if I can't reanimate is myself
Just hope there really is no way of telling by HTC themselves...

Maybe try to see if you can flash a ROM image on it again from the SD card - doing it blind, there are only a few keys to press to reflash, maybe the screen is not working but the device powers up occasionally ?

Try to flash a new cooked rom. Remove battery, then wait 30 secs, then put back battery and push volume down and power button simultaneously. Then you can flash a new rom.
It worked for me.
(sorry for my "english")

intresting
so, tried to flash via RUU.exe+connecting to my pc.
What I did:
-Vol down+power button
-connect phone to my pc via usb.
-run RUU.exe with a dutty rom
-then RUU says it couldn't find my phone.
However, my pc (windows 7) does!
But not how it is supossed to do it.
Check out the screen to see what i mean.
Maybe something more can be doen now? Anyone knows what is going on here?

Maybe you just need to change drivers??? Becouse sometimes Vista change it by itself, so I think 7 can work in the same way?!
Try it, as far as can see from your screen there are no drivers installed
""Manufacturer: Unknown
Device Status: The driver for this device are not installed.""

Go to - Windows Mobile Device Center, then select - Mobile Device Settings, Connection Settings, then uncheck - Allow USB Connections.
Normally this would be ticked to allow syncs etc but to flash a rom it needs to be unchecked.
I cant tell from your post if you have done this or not.
Hope it helps.

I dont have W7 but would imagine it will be similar.

I don't really think it's compulsory to uncheck this. I have it checked and flash my roms without any problems.
But Blackstone is not a friend of Seven at first. You have to tell him to recognise the other.
I have installed the windows-mobile device center from microsoft website and then Windows 7 recognized my HD otherwise I got the same problem as you (no driver).
Hope it can help !

You may be right but mine will not work with the check mark still on.

It does look like a driver issue. Follow this thread to get the necessary usb drivers.

Do you have the Hspl? If yes can't you try flashing from the sd card? (The connection issue you showed is when you are in active sync mode, isn't it?)

Have you tried to flash an original ROM? It should work regardless of your USB connection settings and if you manage to do that and still no life in your hd - you can return it with warranty. And one more suggestion - find a XP machine to do this. Btw - flashing through the SD card is a very, VERY good idea.

succesfull flash, no result.
First of all, a huge thanks to you guys!
The idea's and help u came up with really made my day.
Second, I got to flash my phone. With the right drivers installed everything worked like it supposed to work.
However, the same problems still persist....
So I think this problem is deeper then rom orientated (ideas?)
Anyhow, now I'm able to flash a original rom to my phone, which should help my warranty!
Great job guys, kudos to you

I already tried flashing through the SD card. Normally this is the way to go for me, but it didn't seem to do any good this time (not sure if I performed it correctly, since my screen is "dead")

I'm a bit confused... you managed to flash rom? So your sync works? (on the other side you say your screen is dead?)

Bricked Droid 3

Can't get my phone into recovery at all after trying to get the new up date. Only way it comes on is by plugging it into the wall, and the only way to get it to turn off is to pull the battery. Besides the Motorola sign when it is on, that is all it does right now. I think what caused this is using safestrap instead of boot strap. Here are more details from a convo with an acquaintance. BTW, I've tried the technique for getting it to boot in recovery a 1000 times but have been unsucessful.

homescreen looks sick man. Liking the launcher too.
Been waiting on the Galaxy Nexus...going to drop my X for this.
What's up?
Thanks. Btw, I fell asleep waiting on the files to transfer to my phone. When I woke up it was bricked
I backed up EVERYTHING on the sd, I just need to figure out how to get the phone past the bootloop now. Hopefully I can get it done connected to the laptop, but any advice would be appreciated. The guys on xda were a little vaugue on the directions.
Did you clear data/cache before installing the files?
I would boot back into recovery and do this. It won't delete the files you just installed, just all the old data (system settings, etc) in your phone.
I'd try a few battery pulls first.
If that doesn't work, enter into recovery from here:
http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/d...-recovery.html
And wipe data/cache, then reboot.
If I plug it into a power source, the motorola emblem comes up, but nothing else. It won't even power off. Power + X or M doesn't do a damn thing, and if I plug it into my computer it also does nothing at all. The laptop doesn't even recognize it or even try to charge it as far as I can tell.
After Power + X did you hit the volume buttons in the guide like it says?
You probably did but just wanted to make sure.
You're only other choice seems to flash a fastboot file.
These are about the easiest instructions you'll find.
I've never done on a D3, but looks right to me.
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/4370-sbf-...959-and-56890/
Don't turn on your phone to charge it, leave it off and charge it.
Unless you can tell me how to install/uninstall programs located on the internal and external memory of the phone when I can't get it to turn on (even in recovery mode), I'm fairly certain I'm screwed. I believe that my only hope originally was to be able to access the memory via laptop to be able to get it into recovery. That ROM I put on had to use this http://www.hash-of-codes.com/files/Droid3Safestrap.apk, which won't work for the factory update, which has to use this http://download.clockworkmod.com//te...3Bootstrap.apk. So even though I have all the programs that I need on the memory of the phone to get the factory update then reinstall the custom ROM, I can't get the phone on so that I can install and uninstall the programs necessary for recovery. I should never have messed with my phone when I was half asleep to begin with.

Well, I got it unbricked, but it was a real trick to get it done. Like I mentioned before, I suspected an issue with battery power, because when it was plugged in for charging, the screen stayed on with the motorola logo displayed. As everyone knows, this uses a lot of power. Even being plugged in to the wall (phone WOULD NOT turn off), it was using most of the power that was supposed to be charging the battery. This is what I did to bypass the problem.
1. Let charge all night
2. Hit X + power (M + power WOULD NOT work) simultanously,then slowly inserted phone end of USB cord that was already plugged into the wall
3. After the Motorola logo displayed on the screen, I closed the keyboard and waited for the Andoid avatar to be displayed. Once he popped up, I hit the volume button up and down at the same time, which FINALLY got it into recovery.
4. Factory reset by toggleing to that option and hitting power button.
5. Once factory reset was complete, I selected the ZIPPED leak update and hit the power button.
6. After update completed, system reboot. Phone kept its root status and the DarkDroid ROM

Btw, does this info look right (asking anyone who knows). Phone is supposed to be updated with Verizon update, rooted, and running DarkDroid ROM

Verizon is weird about their update names. if youre going from 1.1.1 to 2.2.2, then the update name would be Verizon.1.1.1 I have no idea why.

My Samsung Galaxy Ace won't turn on!!!!!

Hello, recently i've flashed my galaxy ace with rom manager (ClockworkMod) so i can make the partition thing to my sd card, so i flashed it, turn it off, and then i won't turn on. I can't even charge my phone! I tried to turn it on in reboot mode but it doesn't do anything. I even tried to turn on download mode and nothing. Not even the samsung logo shows up. Nothing! I'm desesperated, I don't know what to do now. I'm new in this forum, so I will be very very thankful if someone could help me on this. Please.

First, ROM MANAGER BRICKS SAMSUNG GALAXY ACE!
Second, YOUR PHONE IS DEAD. TRY A USB JIG OR GOTO SERVICE CENTER.
Third, WHO TOLD YOU TO USE ROM MANAGER?
Fourth, LIE TO SERVICE CENTER TELLING THAT YOU WERE CHARGING YOUR PHONE AND IT TURNED OFF AND IT NEVER TURNED ON. DO NOT MENTION WORDS LIKE "BRICK","ROOT","ROM MANAGER".
Fifth, Welcome to the world of XDA Developers. DO read the threads with a pin icon in front (A.K.A Sticky)

I never understand, that people who buys a new device, why don't read something about it??? Before I buy my Ace, I read a lot about it, I knew, that it's prohibited to use Rom Manager on Ace... There's a lot of info about it...

Another lost to the dark side of rom manager. Rip the poor thing.

Firstly..CWM ROM Manager?
and ROM manger for partition? all you needed was the CWM Recovery.
We have stickies here for a reason and if you dont read them, do not create new threads when you have problems..

a time try to flash my phone with new firmware, and my phone can't turn on, becouse one input of firmware wrong, and then i try to leave baterry and then, try to go download mode again and flash with new firmware, wait flashing finish and my phone can turn on again.
hopefully working with your phone.

Let's give a try, but I think it won't work. Rom Manager hard bricks Ace, and even download mode won't work. Bring it to service center...

Have you ever heard something like "don't do something unless you know what you are doing", well this is very useful. There's a reason that none on ace developement doesn't use or recomends ROM manager. Brick.

This actually happened to my phone. Is it a known fault? Is there a way to repair it without taking it to a service centre 30 miles away?

Your device wont turn on?
I wonder why?
Perhaps its got something to do with the fact that you have broken your device into pieces. Not literally but oh well u get the point.

If you're responding to me, I don't get your point. I haven't broken it into pieces, literally or otherwise. I haven't modified the OS in any way since I got it. I plugged it in to charge. It is meant to be able to charge.

You're ace is brick go to repair centre if you have the warranty just say you don't know how this happen, or buy a new phone...

i face that problem too, after i search the entire thread in this forum then i found this method. try this, maybe it can help :
- pull out your battery
- press the vol down+home+power n in the same time then pull in your battery (if you can't do it alone, ask somebody to help you pull in the battery)
- wait (n pray maybe ) until download mode appear
hope it can help you..:fingers-crossed:

happened the same
i tried flashing stock rom froyo 2.2.1 from odin it cme up as pass but when i dsiconetted nothing happened my phone is ****ed help me anyone it wont even show the samsung logo what do u advise me to do i live in india should i go o the service center or what

Come on everyone!!
Rather than making snide comments, we SHOULD be helping him.
Here, check this out it helped my friend when he bricked his SGA.
Un-Bricking SGA
And remember, from now on use CWM Recovery, or if you want then use ODIN,
BUT NEVER, EVER USE ROM MANAGER. IT'S THE SHINIGAMI FOR OUR PHONE!!!

Another victim of ROM Manager. RIP.

hi guys, I just bought my i9305 but I cudn't get it to connect with my pc via usb. Sometime it searches for updates and fails and sometime its just absolutely nothing my phone just starts getting charged thats all. I don't even get anything on notification bar. Also I can't find any usb settings on my phone. I've searched about it a bit but couldn't find any post that answers it all. I need my computer to show both internal and external storage when I connect it via USB. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

You need to get the drivers for it as the S3 use MTP when it connects to the pc. No longer does it use mass storage mode. A search for the drivers will get you what it needs.

worry not
Same as already said dont worry search google for plenty of driver downloads..I still get them messages even with so called drivers installed,i just unplug usb then plug back in.s3 has mind of its own lot of the time untill you beat it hard with a few harsh words..lol

Yeah the Samsung drivers are about as stable as Manson on LSD:cyclops:

This does not look like a driver problem... more a user that has backed up his IMEI and forgot to but the phone back in normal operation mode.

Your phone should not be detected as a Qualcomm if in correct mode, in correct mode it will find it as a Samsung device. So if you just bought it a did nothing to it then take it back.

And when you connect it to a computer it should identify itself as Samsung and not Qualcomm like your screen shot says.

No, perhaps the Modem/Modem you have instead of the PDA/PDA I have. I've only seen it identified as Qualcomm when these settings were not correct.

hmm...there must be a solution for this, it all seems like software conflict to me cuz my phone doesn't even take the usb drivers even if I update the driver manually from device manager...maybe there is drivers for qualcomm? maybe installing a rom cud fix this? who knows....I think I'll just keep looking and wait for other people to respond.

You are welcome. But if would make you feel beter you could just thank all my replies in the thread

I did not get this Menu as you can see post #8
I changed settings one time befor saving IMEI as described in HowTo (it came up by dialing *#7284# ), and since then, it never comes back. Nor with dialing neither with commandline
Is there any other way to bring Menu up again ?

Htc one flashing red light then goes solid red

Hi guys I'm new to this site and I'm very new to android I was giving a htc one M7 that my friend said he could get to work he said it was work then one day it turned off and would charge it brings up the charge logo when you put it in but the you get a battery with a RED ! In there and it just flashes I left it for a good while and I actually came up with 2% after leaving for ages in read a lot about it been a calibration problem but i tried to hold down the power button and the up and down volume button but all I get is the fast boot menu can someone please help me as I'm sure it can be a problem that can be fixed as I no it's doing something ps this is a UK model on 02 can someone help out Id be great fully appreciated sorry of Iv posted this in the wrong post it's my first post and you guys look like you know what your talking about
Thank you
Danny

Is....is that ONE sentence? I know you're new here, but if you want people to be able to accurately help you, you need to punctuate so we know what you're saying.
ANYWAY, If you can access the bootloader all is not lost. Have you got adb installed on a pc (windows 7 preferably)? If you do, plug your phone into the computer while in fastboot post the results of the command "fastboot getvar all" and edit out your serial number and imei. From there we might be able to find and run the correct ruu for your device. That might help recover the phone to a working state.

Hey there thank you for the reply . I am sorry about my bad grammar I actually don't have a windows computer Iv got a iMac is there anyway I can do this on my iMac . I really do appreciate your help thank you

Yes, you can run the commands on a Mac. This post FAQ #3 will explain the syntax. You will need if you don't have them already is the ADB and Fastboot programs. I'm not familiar with the Mac so I don't know how it works on the Mac. The download site will have instructions.

Thank you I'll get that up and running. I also mite be able to get my hands on a windows laptop may work tonight but I'll post a reply with the results of the search thank you again

Hey guys Iv tried on two different computers now but I don't no if it's because the phone is in fast boot but it will not install the drivers for the phone correctly
Do any of you guys know where I could directly install the drivers for the phone from Iv tried downloading htc sync but that didn't work

Follow this procedure to correctly installed HTC drivers on your PC:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If not, follow this guide (thanks to nkk71):
originally from @nkk71: [GUIDE] [02-MAR-2014] nkk71's SuperGUIDE to returning 100% back to stock
follow the below instructions to fix
Open "Device Manager" -> select the unknown "One" -> right-click -> "Update Driver Software ..." -> "Browse my computer" -> "Let me pick" -> "Android USB Devices" -> select "My HTC ..." -> install that
just in case, HTC Drivers can be found here: [Drivers] HTC Drivers for Windows - Several Versions (credits to @mdmower)
though you should already have them since you have been using your phone anyways
for those who like a visual guide:
okay so I did a fastboot boot command, and as you can see it didnt install correct driver
Open "Device Manager"
there's the culprit
right click and Update Driver Software
select Browse my computer for driver software
select Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
select Android USB Devices
select My HTC ... (if you have more than one version, choose the latest)
warning, select Yes
successful installation
now it looks better
and can confirm:
Code:
C:\ADB3>[B]adb devices[/B]
List of devices attached
HTxxxxxxxxxx recovery

It still comes up at unknown device when I connect regardless maybe I should try install it on another computer but I'll install android SDK and htc sync first or is that not the right way to go

Hey guys I'm not sure if Iv made some progress i read somewhere that someone left there's on charge for 4 days and that then calibrated the battery.
When I normally put it on charge the red light flashes at a normal pace and a normal brightness then when the battery logo comes up with the red ! It flashes faster but dimmer.
This morning I thought I'd try a different plug in the wall as mine isn't a htc plug it was a Samsung s3 charger. someone said to try charger it fast with my iPad charger so I used my plug in the wall and my lead left it for two hours and it actually looks like it is charger better the red light is flashing but it's flashing at a normal pace and normal brightness but I don't want to try turn it on incase it starts all over again.
What should I do guys should I just leave it will it try turn itself on or will it just charge

Typically the led will turn solid when charging and the phone will show a battery icon on the screen. Leave it to charge for a while longer see what happens. If nothing changes, turn it on again and try the steps we suggested in this thread.

Still nothing but a blinking light Iv orderd another battery to see if that makes i change altho been told this is a new battery because now it won't charge I can't even get back into HBOOT menu because it's that flat

Is your computer detecting your phone now? it's best not to have HTC sync installed at all as it will interfere with fastboot but shouldn't effect the drivers. You can uninstall HTC sync and leave the drivers installed.
If all else fails use Linux if Linux doesn't detect your phone nothing will. You can boot it from a live usb pendrive from a Mac or PC without altering the main os installed on the computer in any way.
