Your phone is hard bricked due to lack of reading
You have to send it to Sony for repair or use JTAG service (which is very rare)
No other option it's dead
But If it's under warranty It can be repaired for free
wanna thank xda? here

I can't do it my self? I really need to do it today because I don't want to fight with my grandmather she doesn't give me a money anymore. :crying::crying:

99% chances are like this!

I found warranty. What can I tell them in service? I worked booting from 1.6 to 2.1 version. But by chance I turned off the USB cable and then it would not start anymore?:fingers-crossed::good:

You tell them simple : went off and doesnt want to start .

Have you sent your phone to repair? If yes, how much does it cost?
Mine w8 is also hard bricked and i am thinking to send it to SONY to repair but scared that it will be very expensive

@awm123
If you send it to Sony and you have not warranty it'll be very expensive so why don't you send it to normal repair shop (non Sony)? They do it cheaper .

so many users hardbrick!! and so many user starting tons of threads with the same
cries,news and sad.
so many users didn't get to it (tutorial) properly and end up like this.
every X8 users always get hardbrick! because they always trying to unlock bootloader
no matter what is there manufacturing date even me too hardbricked my X8(12W06)
so if we are money crisis and didn't prepare properly for this dangerous work.
and not end up like this even worse.
some tips for prevent hardbrick or get out of it quickly:
1) TRY to control your fun/excited and eagerness to try newer android version ROMS like 4.0 and 4.1
and some feature packed kernel.(this the main reason why our brain shut down our simpleness and satisfyness.)
2)don't try to unlock bootloader in X8 11W29+ manufacture date
-if you want to try the luck,no matter how is your 11WXX/12Wxx
do it before your warranty ends! otherwise it will cost you
3)be prepared mentally and don't burst in to cry if you hardbricked!
4)save some money in your pocket before hardbrick! in case it will cost you massively
if you don't have warranty.
i tried all of this and have less stress when hard bricked my X8!
Sorry for my really bad English, hope you can understand it.

The problem is when somebody 'must' try it, but 'I won't touch it until warranty ends'.
Idiots. Warranty is greatest stronghold when trying these. There are 3 options while under warranty and you try something dangerous:
1: everything works fine
2: you kill your phone, but it can be repaired by Flashtool
3: hardbrick. They can not tell it was you who caused it. In most of the cases (when they even try it) they will erase and rewrite the flash, so every sign of your stupidness is destroyed. And even if they only rewrite S1boot, the only thing they will find out is that the phone was rooted.
Don't worry, I won't kill you.
I just show you the way to a second life.

i really can't understand what you say, but i completely didn't like the way you describe you used the word like
idiots and Kill you i hate that word because it irritating someone and the words are arrowing someone .
if you kill your phone it can't be repaired by Flashtool!
hey,you need warranty for repairing it for free of charge or with charge in mobile shop!
OR ALSO POSSIBLE WITH JTAG
warranty is really a big plus point! you can HARDBRICK! 10 TIMES AND USE YOUR WARRANTY TEN TIMES!
SONY WILL NOT (KILL US) IF THEY KNOW WE ARE THE CAUSE FOR THE H-BRICK.
because the rules is SONY need to re-alive Sony made phones! in 1 year warranty time.

yes what can I do to fix the G1 brick ?
well what you can do is if you have insurance just tell t-mo rep that your phone went black once installing some update that prompted on screen and they will provide you with an exchange/replacement phone
so far there is no possible way to unbrick the g1

You can't fix a "brick" hence the reason its called a brick. it becomes useless
See my sig
There is no possible way to unbrick the phone at the moment. Do as AndroidFiend says. Your phone should still be under warranty and you should be able to get a replacement
Well the only way to unbrick a G1 is if you have magic fairy dust and sprinkle it over the phone. But magic fairy dust is hard to come by now a days.
Not if you call a T-mobile rep. They usually have lots of that magic dust.

I believe they will charge a $39 triage fee, then shipping, IF your covered by warranty.
If they find out you hacked the phone, it will be more expensive. (~$150?)

He does mean it. He thinks being stuck at the g1 screen is a brick. He can't get it through his head that a brick is a phone that you can do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WITH. No combination of buttons does anything.

Carphone Warehouse

So my phone is off for repair, because the screen is unresponsive on the right hand side.
Can't believe it.
Carphone Warehouse
woman: "so the screen is unresponsive?"
pause
woman: DROPPED MY FU*KIN PHONE ON THE FLOOR, ABOUT 1METER AND HALF DROP!!!!
woman: "so where is it unresponsive?"
long pause, while i was thinking to say "well the whole FU*KING SCREEN NOW!"
me: "just along the right hand side"
woman: "have you got a phone for the meantime?"
me: "ye"
in my head: "ye, my 7 year old, trusty, never break, never give up, never defective, fu*kin solid HTC HIMALAYA (02 xda II) WINDOWS MOBILE BRICK!!!!!
woman: "so your phone should be repaired i about 14 days"
The good news is if the problem isn't fixed they will give me a brand new one.
Comments?
I am confused.
makes no sense
I think
woman: DROPPED MY PHONE ON THE FLOOR, ABOUT 1METER AND HALF DROP!!!!
was meant to be
flyboyovyick DROPPED MY PHONE ON THE FLOOR, ABOUT 1METER AND HALF DROP!!!!
I decided to edit due to the swearing...
I hope you get your phone back, and that you didn't give it to them with anything on it... you know, such as your google accoutn linked to market so they can download whatever apps they feel like?
the woman actually dropped my phone on the floor!!!
And before i give it them i wiped it.
Its just, when she dropped it she didn't apologise. Or check it for any damage.
So if it comes back damaged, i will be telling them that the woman in the shop dropped it.
lol Please don't hate me for this but Apple will replace and held hand device straight away if something is not working and is under warranty. That's the only good thing from them But anyway hope you get a replacment device, especialy considering the woman dropped your phone

Still, i will see how it goes.
My HD2 has developed a problem with the screen too.
I want to give it in for repair, but I really cant be bothered waiting upto a month (tmobile) to get it replaced.
So I think Im going to be cheeky and ask them for a brand new phone insted, as HD2s are almost a year old (DesireHD pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaseee god!)
I doubt they will let it happen though...
Its shocking that the woman dropped your phone! I'd expect a brand new one there and then if that happened to me

cba to quote an earlier post, mainly as my work proxy had one hell of a seizure yesterday due to the language used... guess they changed some things!
But anyways - Sorry i misunderstood. Did you get the name of the carphone employee, and the time and date? That way if it comes back un repairable due to the damage from the dock you can pressure them to look at the CCTV to watch the fool drop your phone!
Hopefully you'll get a new phone, I don't know of many places that still sell your LG GT540.

Bad Day
I feel naked as a jay bird without my phone. Kinda like the cigarette commercial I would have to re- learn how to do things without my phone
If I loose my phone I'll go suicide and haunt the place afterwards and everyone with a smartphone that passes by that place they will be dead when they're batteries get empty
I must be one of the people that really wouldn't mind. Yes, I do use my phone for a lot of things, but I will live without it. For music, I'd just have to get another device, or a Walkman (hey kids, remember the walkman? not the SE Phone line ;-) ), GPS, there are regular maps, and other stuff like that.
No Gingerbread for Desire!
Rather than starting a new thread...
http://www.zdnet.co.uk/blogs/commun...ead-for-desire-due-to-memory-issues-10022721/
"We're sorry to announce that we've been forced to accept there isn't enough memory to allow us both to bring Gingerbread and keep the HTC Sense experience on the HTC Desire," the team wrote. "We're sincerely sorry for the disappointment that this news may bring to some of you."
So it's ok for users to live with an outdated OS that has Kernel vulnerabilities, leaving them prone to attack vectors that have since been fixed...just as long as HTC can keep foisting software crippling bloatware down peoples throats.
Well done HTC! *Slow hand clap.

I figured as much. I'm kind of hoping they will just repair the screen and send my phone back to me as it was. But it does in the T&C's that they will update software to most recent version before sending the handset back. And I Can't be arsed to go through the hassle of rooting again.

[Q] Is this considered physical damage/abuse?

Hey guys,
My warranty for my captivate ends 08/23 and my phone has stopped charging.
I checked if it would charge with different USB cables and chargers but it still won't charge. So I guess it's a hardware problem.
The phone was dropped once probably from 5 ft. to rough concrete(Im 6'1 btw).
I had a skinomi screen protector since I had this phone so the screen is fine.
It has some minor scratches around the phone but you can hardly see them.
The scratches in the pictures below is what's making ask this question.

I would like to know if AT&T would consider this physical damage? Don't want to send the phone and be charged because of this.
Also I have a Device support center in my area.
Should I replace it by phone or should I visit the support center?
Well, that one is pretty iffy. My experiences with AT&T is that if you take it to a support center, it really depends who happens to be working the desk. They could look at it and replace it, or tell you that it is too damaged and "abused" and you are basically out of luck. Over the phone may work a little better, because you could mitigate (or bend the truth, whichever phrasing you prefer) the amount of damage, and the call warranty centers *seem* to replace just about anything. So it's really up to you.
Also, did it stop charging before or after you dropped it? That one could matter. You could also lie ahem bend the truth.
I replaced my hard bricked Cappy yesterday at a customer support center, they looked at it for 2 minutes and then decided it was "dead". So if that's anything for you, take it or leave it.
I dropped it months before this problem started. Ill probably go tomorrow to the service center. If they can't replace it ill just hard brick it and replace it over the phone.
Thanks

I had the same issue with a return then got a case (body glove) dropped it several times aand no visible damage. At any rate I ended up having to do the return over the phone.
Edit: also, with the case on my phone has been thrown atleast 20ft down an asphalt road with no visible damage still. I didn't throw the phone by the way. Long story lol.

Yeah, if you really want it replaced, I would go ahead and hard brick it. Just flash a bad bootloader and you're good xD. Isn't it scary that we know how to break these things better then we know how to fix them?
I couldnt replace it cause the usb cover is broken they said it voids the warranty.
Luckily I got the mobile insurance but now I have to pay $125 to replace it.
I'll make sure to take care of the replacement
Yea that's what I said. Accidents happen though and I use my phone way too much for these things not to happen. Get a case! Bodyglove ftw!

I would like to know if AT&T would consider this physical damage? Don't want to send the phone and be charged because of this.
Also I have a Device support center in my area.
Should I replace it by phone or should I visit the support center?

Christ. I'd hope the gorilla glass does its job and buy a protector for the rest of the phone going forward.

Ring around power button just fell off

Has this ever happened to someone before?

Yes it just fell off when I pressed the power button, phone is 3 months old, warranty should cover this right?

i think it should, as long as you didn't drop it on the floor like 10 times...
First time I've seen it. Warranty will cover it.
Ok thanks, thats great to know, anyone know how long it takes them to repair that if I send it in? i live in sweden btw
Holly C..p! What the hell it's happening with this Z1? I can't believe it.. . Never so something like that, Sony will cover that 100% but the only who know how long will take to repaid it, will be Sony it self.

Beroende på vart du köpt den, räkna med 1-3 veckor.
Depending on where you bought it, count on 1-3 weeks.
On another note, what theme is it you have?

Bought it on the phone house, 3 weeks sounds a bit too much but I guess I have no choice, my acro s is still going strong so I should survive, the theme is called african leopard.

In my country, the law clearly states that ANY REPAIR made under warranty, must be done in MAXIMUM 15 days.

It's not your fault so why you have to pay? No way.

I did but it just falls off again, my guess is they use some kind of special glue since the phone is waterproof, otherwise I would just use normal glue and avoid all the hassle

Really be carefull if you even try do that because you risk to glue the on/off botton too and it will stuck.

wow really?
sounds like they are trying to rip you off..
I just got mine back today, apart from the broken power button I let them know that I had touch screen problems, yellowish screen and little dirt inside the back camera.
They replaced display, ram, camera, the glass back and even the aluminum frame (I had a scratch on it and now its gone)
so its like a new phone and I didn't have to pay a penny. Only issue that remains is yellowish screen but that's fixable with the new white balance settings..
You should call them again and tell them that the ring just fell off on normal usage, its their fault for not making it more durable, you shouldn't have to pay anything.
Same thing happened on my z 1 compact does anyone know where to find the ring? I Lost mine
