Milestone - Stuck at bootloader

I tried flashing back from 2.2 to 2.1 and now its stuck at bootloader.
When flashing it I saw a flash error but afterwards it said success...
The SBF flashing was a lot faster than I remembered it (it was almost instant) so I'm really thinking I might have flashed the wrong file or skipped a step.
Point being. I can no longer boot the milestone's OS, all I can do is access the bootloader.
It displays the following message: err:a5,69,4e,00,3d
Not only that, but after a few tries trying to use different SBFs with no success I got the following message on the bootload "low bttery, cannot program".
I left the device hooked on its charger all night to no avail. When plugging it onto the PC through USB it doesn't even read it.
Would someone please save my phone?

UPDATE: I managed to charge the battery by peeling an usb cable.
But the other problem still remains. I boot the device and it takes me to bootloader.
It says err:a5,69,4e,00,3d and something like ok to program

Brick when trying recovery

Hello,
I am totally new in this forum. I got my HTC Vivid one month ago. Today, I wanted to root it. However, it was off and never back, no LED when plugging via USB.
I unlocked BootLoader according to HTC's instruction.
Update HBoot with PH39IMG.zip
Create recovery Nandroid with VIVID_CWM_ROOT_VER2.zip
During the process flashing a Kernel in this forum, I type:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
It rebooted and I stuck in a boot loop (HTC logo just appeared again and again)
I did a Return to stock (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416836). But I only succeeded in first step (fastboot oem lock).
I stuck in bootloader loop. The phone just response in bootloader forever.
I did recovery from Nandroid. It performed restore but not work.
Neither did with the factory reset.
I tried with another PH39IMG.zip (~35 MBs), it worked. I got my phone back.
After that, I wanted to recover since I can't connect to wifi.
Start recovery in bootloader, the phone was just dead. The PC recognized a connection (HSUSB). I download the driver (Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008
) but no effect.
I think my phone is bricked.
I will appreciate if anyone can help.

did u update hboot with an unlocked bootloader...thats no good

are u still can access Hboot?
sometimes, u should flash a kernel with ROM to work on it. if you still running Stock ROM, don;t flash MOD kernel like Holiraider. it will couse boot loop.
if u still able to access HBOTT, no need to worry.

@meatwad0222: I unlocked bootloader and updated hboot. It succeeded in rooting the phone. I got problem when I tried to flash a kernel.
@prahasta: I can't do anything. The phone never turned on again, even if I plugged the charger, the LED was not on. Pressing power button with volume down did not work at all. In general, I can't access to hboot.

Hm... It will be difficult.. hope it wasn't couse by hardware.

I had a similar problem..I unlocked bootloader.and flashed a new ROM. I was then stuck in boot loop..it would go all the way to the screen where it says "upgrading android" and would then reboot...the solution I found was to extract the boot image and flash it...then it rebooted normally with new ROM. Hope this helps...

if Bootloop, at least u still can access HBoot, but he can't do that.
try to connect it to PC with Full Battery. then check if your PC still detect it. if PC can detect it, try to flash Official RUU.

My laptop does not recognized it. It said that it can't find a driver for that. I searched in xda-forum and I found the driver. Right now, in the device manager of my laptop, it says Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008. I tried to flash an office RUU but it stopped at <waiting for device>
Thank for your replies.

good to hear your laptop still detect the phone.
u need to pick right RUU for your device.
used Hanson tools, choose to unlock your bootloader again (hope this work). after unlock bootloader, and u can acces HBOOT, choose fastboot mode then instal CMW/WCXs recovery. once done, try to access CWM. if u can acces CWM recovery, there is no worries anymore, u just need to instal correct ROM and Kernel.

My laptop only detects the phone as a Qualcomm chip, not as a phone. When running Hasooon tool, it stops at <waiting for device>.

Sounds like it's in dload mode.

If your phone is in dload mode then I think that is a soft brick...it is fixable, from what I read on another thread, but is more difficult...but not impossible..I had to download HTC drivers for my laptop...the following 2 sites contain the files.

I talked to HTC customer service for repairing. After everything was set up, I thought that I lost my warranty since I rooted my phone (in HBoot, it said RE-LOCK"). I will give a try with the "wire trick" in the thread "Juopunutbear S-OFF". Hopefully after wire those holes, I can access to the debug mode and "wake up" my phone. Otherwise, I have to spend $5 more to buy those warranty stickers on eBay and have the phone fixed.

I thought that it would be a jtag, but it was not. I did not succeed. I have to send it to HTC for repair.

I think I know the reason caused my problem. I tried to recover why I was on S-ON. Thus, the firmware will "fight" each other and the hardware will not know what it should do. The result is a software-bricked phone.

Help save my phone! :(

You didn't unlock a bootloader but you've installed custom recovery.
Use a KDZ to flash stock ROM.

thats the problem now. 3 months ago that i wanted to unlock the bootloader , i just typed : adb drivers and got them. now if u search for adb drivers u will find a million posts that say nothing, because no one searches. since 3 months ive seen at least more 20 posts about unlocking the bootloader......... anyway. go download android sdk , the 32 bit version even if u r on windows x64. install , run, update it. u will get the drivers right. after that u can easily unlock the bootloader and install team win recovery or cyanogen recovery. use the all in one toolkit of afro. thats all.

[Q] Possibly Bricked HTC One M7... HELP!

Hi,
This is my first time to create an account and or post on XDA, so I appolagize if my question is somewhere else, or if this is the wrong section...
I have a T-Mobile HTC One M7. I flashed the Google Edition RUU to try it out. I then flashed just the firmware back and was going to restore a TWRP Backup. After I issued the command fastboot flash zip firmware.zip twice, I entered the command fastboot reboot-bootloader. The screen then turned black and won't turn on. The phone seems completely unresponsive. It won't boot to an OS, or Bootloader. No HTC logo on the screen. If I plug the phone in, nothing happens. No charging light or anything. I surrely thought I actually Bricked it, but it appears to be reconized by Windows. If I hold down the power button for so long, the light won't blink, but the computer makes a device disconnected sound shortly followed by a connect sound. I went ahead and connected it to a Linux machine, and the OS sees 6 different partitions / removable media. I am able to browse what appears to be the root, system, recovery...
It is S-OFF via firewater and the firmware I flashed has hboot 1.57.0000. The bootloader is unlocked. The device is not seen by adb nor fastboot.
Does anyone think I have any chance of recoverying it?

Yes it's dead, try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2770684

Phone in Hard Brick mode

I was trying to install Arrow OS custom ROM to Motorola one power using TWRP. It got flashed, when I flashed the Gpps Rom with it, it didn't flashed and I rebooted the phone right there. The phone is now in a hard brick mode and is not responding to anything, is there anything I can do to fix it? Could you please guide me with the complete procedure?

You must use a blankflash to boot bootloader.BlankFlash available for
Moto One Power (Chef) https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/chef[/
.1 install Motorola drivers,2 install quallcom drivers for Motorola procesor(gsmusbdrivers.com/download/qualcomm-hs-usb-qdloader-9008-driver-64-bit-windows) .3 use flashbat in blankflash directory,4 press volume down and power on phone.5 connect phone with pc and proces will be starting.if your phone starting in bootloader mode ,you can flash stock room

Thank you for your help and response. I followed the steps as you mentioned. On step 3 when I run the Flashbat file, It gives the below error, and the phone never started
[112.478] ReadFile() failed, GetLastError()=0
[125.434] ReadFile() failed, GetLastError()=0

when blankflash starting you can release the wolume and power.try differrent usb port in pc.I have the same problem with custom roms,You see port com in device manager on pc?

It worked, but how did you know all this? Just spot on :good:

I tried this method but not working on my phone, xt1942-1. This is the Chinese version p30 note I got from AliExpress. I see the device in device manager as port 9008
Any help would be appreciated!

Hi,you are try change a port USB in PC?this method works,my phone is the same like your,Moto p30 note from aliexpress

Thanks, I tried all usb ports on my pc but same problem. Should we press power and volume down buttons after connecting to pc? Please help I just got this phone today and bricked right away ...
Also there are two blankfash versions on the link you provided which one to use?

Hi @dadm I could not get my SIM card detected in RR rom and tried to flash stock again. Now I am in a bootloop whatever I do. Which stock did you use to revert back? And is your SIM card detected?

I have a few questions if anyone could answer. I am looking to get hands on this phone but making sure everything goes as I expect.
1.Does any member have knowledge which of this Device variants (XT1942-1, XT1942-2, XT-942-3) qualify for "Unlocking Boot-loader" and which variant does not support unlocking. I am lookig for 4/64gb Chef.
2. Is there Any Custom Pie Rom with Solid stability + Efficient & Effective Kernel?
3. Does stock Motorola Camera app works 100% in a custom flashed Rom as it does in Stock Rom or we have to use Google Pixel Camera apps as an alternative?
4. Is there anyway to get back to stock image from Custom rom.
5. How to recover the device from a Hard Brick.
6. Not but least. How well this device performs while playing PUBG.
