Or see if you can boot into Recovery Mode, you may be able to do something there.

Yea see if you can boot into recovery and do a hard reset from there bud

I did a factory reset from recovery but it didn't work.

Where did you get it? You should have 30 days to switch phones
1. To pick a different phone
2. Or to swap from a thrill 4 a thrill
I've alrealy used 2 different phones from bestbuy I'm not sure how many times they allow you to do so I think once so I may be stuck with the thrill which is okay I really want the galaxy 2 tho..

this didnt recover mine either.
No big deal. Swapped mine out today. I will hold on to the phone til the GS2 comes out, and then im switching.

ADB isn't recognizing the phone either. I believe I left it in USB Debugging mode before this all happened, but maybe that got reset when I did the factory reset and therefore it isn't enabled anymore.

Isn't the SG2 RELEASING ON SEP 16?

you are correct... any setting you may have altered in your phone is saved in the phone's data partition... the build.prop which im assuming you edited is saved in the system partition.. a factory reset only wipes the data partition, this means the setting you enabled for usb debug is set back to default and the build.prop you edited is left the way you edited it in the system partition completely unaffected... best chance is to wait for a manual CWM

There are some rumors that it will be releasing that weekend. A friend at samsung claims that is impossible, the phone is in testing.. but some claim that retailers have told them it will release that weekend

How is it resolved?

I have two bricked thrills and cannot get them in download mode.. I watched the video and am doing everything correct.. Just installs the darn texas instruments USB driver. This suuuucks.

what videos are you talking about. I bricked my thrill as well and it wont cut on at all. I have been looking for some sort of help and cant get any.

How was this solved?What were you doing to brick it?Would like to know incase I get there but it seemed easy enough to flash to few roms Ive tried so far.Thanks

Do you have any info on bricked thrills?

How did you Brick it? what did you do to fix it? my thrill 4g is bricked, it happend to get bricked while trying to restore a stock rom..
Had some LeWa rom.. the CWM i had was supposed to do an automated Backup of the original OS, But it didn't, and i followed dixtra's flash and it bricked my cell phone.. so im out of a cell phone right now.. which annoys me,
the errors i got.. while trying to do a master reset. were
E; cannot open recovery/log cache,
E; cannot mount recovery/log cache,
i can get to the master recovery menu.. but it just gets a boot loop.
Anyone able to help? Either via Tviewer, or pointing me to a guide that will un brick the piece of crud?

my nexus one bricked :((

hi
plz help me
my nexus one bricked!
what should i do?
First I gotta say, someone get a fire extinguisher cause girl you are on fire! (lol)
Anyways can you elaborate on how you "bricked" your phone? Can you get to the boot loader or recovery at all? What did you last do before you found out it was bricked?
It's very hard to brick them... hold the trackball and power on, and you should get the bootloader, if so, it's far from dead.

flash zip from sd!
Uh oh.
The only real way to brick an N1 is with a bad radio flash. The riskiest way to flash a radio is via recovery.
You can try pulling the battery, plugging it into a charger and re-inserting the battery.

Can't do everything, or can't do anything - because there is a difference...
Is there any signs of life from the phone at all (light/vibration)?
I'm asking because you said you flashed radio AND ROM (was it in that order?). If you managed to flash the ROM after the radio, then the radio probably isn't the problem...

when the cellphone rebooted
suddenly turned off and ...........( bricked )
the cell phone was have problem before i flash rom and radio
it wasnt come up
when i was turn on it
it was just stay on x picture
with open lock
Phone that suddenly turned off during Radio flash - is bricked, and nothing to do about it. Use the warranty, send in for replacement.
Yeah, it was a long stretch, but I thought I'd ask anyway...

Pretty sure it's bricked.
Send it back to HTC.
If they can't fix it, then they probably can't tell how it got messed up either, so your warranty may be OK...

The bright side, you still have limited warranty as everyone says until January =]. Been reading mixed reviews of getting a replacement or fixed with HTC.

[Q] How to completely reset phone with broken screen?

Hello,
Unfortunately, my screen is broken (the colours are messed up completely) . I wish to sell my phone for spare parts, so how do i make sure everything is wiped /deleted from the phone?
Factory reset or if you have stock kernel hard reset.Search for code on internet or use sgs tools from market.
Stock JVS with semaphore 1.7.0bm
after that via adb clear internal sdcard from all crap

the thing is, i cannot use the screen to do the reset.. how do i hard reset via usb?
Are you sure it boots? Can you call it?
Btw why you want to wipe it so much?
Service center ignores the system with broken screen, they will not belive you that it broke by itself - it is gorilla glass.
And when you will pay for new phone front noone will care what system is installed as long as it boots
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Ah ok you want to sell it.
Boot it to recovery and go on with adb, because i assume youre rooted.
Well i would do it via adb but half brained monkey will recover data if he wants to

After deleting anything from system folders and so called internal sdcard go on with odin and repartition at download mode.
Shoul be fine
But i hope someone will explain it better

One-Click Fastboot Restore to recover from bootloop or softbrick

Thanks to dhacker29 for the orginal idea and script!
Check out his orginal post for the Droid Bionic here!
Also, thanks to kennethpenn for providing the files you are about to use!
You have to be unlocked to use this!!
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY THING THAT HAPPENS TO YOU OR YOUR PHONE!
I will try to help as much as possible, but that does not allow you to hold me responsible for anything whatsoever.
Step 1. Download this zip file and extract it, putting all the files in a folder.
Step 2. Download the file "One-Click Fastboot Restore.zip" and extract it, putting all the files in the same folder as the one above.
Step 3. Run the .bat file and follow the instructions.
DO NOT FIX PDS PARTITION UNLESS NECESSARY! IT WILL WIPE YOUR MAC ADDRESS FOR WIFI AND BLUETOOTH!
(Found some typos, not serious. Will fix soon)
No comments yet? I take that as a good sign, I haven't screwed up the script!
What does this do? Restore a backup from fastboot
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I'm also curious what exactly it does. At 140k it isn't replacing very much. Does it just fix files related to booting?
Didnt run it because I'm on linux and my phone is fine, but looking at the batch file, it automates flashing the stock gingerbread rom and restores PDS via fastboot.
when I run it, it gives me AdbWinApi.dll error. any suggestions?
I ran this for ****s and giggles and it returns everything back to stock AT&T 2.3 while giving you options along the way of what exactly you wanna restore to stock? webtop, system,pds, wipe data etc. works perfectly! makes life easier really! Phone booted right up after running no problems! Thanks!

It restores your phone back to stock AT&T android via fastboot automatically. It also gives you the option to *fix* your pds partition.
It's also an alternative to RSD

Pardon my ignorance, i'm trying to restore a bricked Atrix 4G for a friend. It gave error Failed to boot SVF 105:1:2 0x1000 after bad upgrade. Is it possible to use this as a solution? How can i find that out? and in any case, i have downloaded all files, what's the correct procedure to do this?
Thanks in advance.

Well, been trying but haven't been able to do anything with it. I mean I never used it before and seems like it needs to boot into fastboot mode which I haven't been able to do.
Is in any way possible to make the phone boot into that via usb cable with this software? I installed all requiered software including drivers but it never detected the phone in that (bricked) state, not even once. The phone turns a green light when u connect the usb without battery in, thats it.
I haven't found any solution yet, only seen ppl saying to buy a new one. Is this brick really that bad that there's absolutely no solution? And it all seems to be caused by lack of SBK as ive read on the net...
Well if there's any good news I would like to hear them

It's a hard brick. I'm sorry, but it cannot be fixed. You can always try a factory cable, but so far, nothing can be done. I feel your pain

If you can't get into recovery or download mode you might be in a bit of a pickle. Recently did that to my GS3 and I had to send it back to Samsung. I would find and try a USB Jig first, that might get you into download mode so you can use Odin to flash stock firmware back onto the phone. Just do a google search for Samsung USB Jig.
Thank you for your advise:thumbup:lol
That is only way to unbricking the phone?

Well that is the way you can do it, if the USB Jig gets you into download mode. If it doesn't, then you can have it JTaged. There are companies out there that offer JTag Service for some fee. Can't remember now but like 60-70 bucks maybe. Again, I'm sure it's just a google search away. Other than those two options I don't know if anything else, besides sending it back for warranty replacement.
Make a JIG, its' super easy. I made one to fix a friends Galaxy S2.

Hey guys,
I'm sending my phone back to Verizon for a Galaxy Nexus replacement. I thought I was unrooted however I recently discovered CWM Recovery is still on my phone--and working. Also, the root folder still shows up in file managers but it is empty. How can I make sure my phone is absolutely and completely stock before I send it back?
