Please Help!
Yesterday, my Milestone crashed while using the camera, tried to reboot and got stuck at the M logo.
I CAN NOT access recovery, it sticks at the M logo.
Tried reflashing using RSDLite using both Service and Non-Service ROMS, it appears to work OK, gets to where the phone reboots, the phone stays at the M logo and RSDLite says manually reboot phone. If I reboot to bootloader mode, RSDLite says PASS, but rebooting the phone stays at the M logo.
I was running GOT's SHOLS_U2_02.36.0, Rooted, Overclock (800mhz), Memhack.
I also tried reflashing the bootloader, both 90.73 (my original), also 90.78 (just in case the camera button was broken and was the reason I couldn't access recovery). Same result, stuck at M logo.
Also, if I plug the Milestone into the Wall charger, it sticks at the M logo, I don't get the recharging logo.
I have also tried reflashing the both the SIM card and SDCard removed, still stuck at the M logo and cant get to recovery.
Please help, if anyone has any ideas, this is driving me absolutely crazy.
Hi there,
I got this problem when I flashing the milestone back to offical ROMs using RSD method. Also stuck at the M logo no matter uplung the battery or using the recovery mode.
I solved this by wipe the data and cache in the recovery mode then reboot.......everything works fine. Hope this help!!

Thanks for the info, but my problem is I can not get into recovery to wipe data and cache. Everytime I try to boot into recovery, it just gets stuck at the M logo.
Did you mean when you plug the battery in,it bootup automatically?
If so, press the carmera button before you plug the battery in,it will boot into recovery mode.
Hope this help.

When I put it the battery, it tries to boot automatically. I had already tried what you suggested, that's the method I can use to access the bootloader menu for flashing. Also, if you pull out the SIM card, the phone doesn't automatically start to boot, I tried that method with power and camera buttons, but didn't work either.
No matter what I try, it won't let me boot into recovery mode. I am sure that if I could access recovery mode, I could wipe data and davlik cache and this would fix my problem.
The only thing I can access is the Bootloader menu (power switch and Up on the keyboard) for flashing with RSDLite.
I am having this problem too. Is there a true fix for this???
Did you tried starting the milestone without battery? When the great battery appears you can put the battery in and let it charge.
I don't have a problem with the battery as i was able to fully charge it. I've tried every thing that i can flash to try to bring it back to life to no avail. Can't get to recovery either. I keep seeing a bunch of people saying that re-flashing it back to stock would un-brick this, but i am starting to think i have a brick.
BTW i have a Telus Milestone.
Maybe the case you have upgraded bootloader?
Have you already tried to flash only the vulnerable recovery and then try to boot in recovery mode?

I have bootloader 90.78. And yes i have tried the vulnerable recovery. When i try to boot to recovery mode it just sits at a blank screen and reboots back to the moto logo.
I believe it is next to impossible to brick a Milestone as we can't touch anything along the bootline.

Everytime i flash the Telus SBF it shows that it finished sucessfully but after it reboots it goes back to the Bootloader 90.78 screen.
I've even tried flashing different sbfs and the same result.

I eventually fixed this by flashing a rom with a diferent baseband. My milestone is a UK model, when I tried flasing the GOT 2.2 for telsus, it actually worked, then I reflashed a UK rom.
I don't know why that worked, maybe I had a corruption is the baseband files, but if that was the case, flashing a uk rom should of worked also.
Hope you get yours going again.

Yeah, i saw your solution on another forum, i tried that and no go. its getting frustrating.
Hy,
This seems a little odd,but at least it's an idea:
Unplug the battery and leave it unplugged for at least one hour. In the meantime(battery still unplugged) press the power button for 5-10 secs or so...this guarantees that there will be no current left on the phone...after the hour,try to reboot and keep the fingers crossed..i know this sounds stupid,but at least give it a try
Good luck!

Just to clarify, after you've flashed it boots straight into the bootloader? Does you get any type of error message such as code corrupt or a string of hex codes?
Are you trying to flash 2.1 or 2.2 or have you tried both?
When my was bricked, flashing 2.1 would boot to the m logo and sit there forever. Flashing 2.2 would boot to the m logo, stay there for maybe 30 seconds, then reboot and repeat. It was the diferent effects of flashing the two versions that lead me to try diferent basebands. Also, I'm pretty sure that I tried flashing diferent basebands for 2.1 without it working.
Also, what happens when you plug into the wall charger? Do you get the battery graphic or does it stick at the m logo?

After the flash it goes straight back to the bootloader screen and with a string of hex codes: a5,69,35,00,27
I've flashed both 2.1 & 2.2 sbfs. Same thing happens after each flash, nothing different like you mentioned. So i can't really narrow it down.
I do not get a battery graphic when i plug in the wall charger, it goes from the moto logo to the bootloader 90.78 screen and then reboots. it probably does this about 5 times and then turns off.

That code is for a bad flash. See this link on android-hilfe.de (its german, link is with google translate), scroll down to lesson 9:
http://translate.googleusercontent....&twu=1&usg=ALkJrhhoVzir_DtnGt57By9kO93AsPmS8g
Try flashing with diferent versions of RSDLite. Re-install usb drivers, try flashing from a different PC, make sure your flashing NON-SERVICE sbf's.
Hope this helps

I updated my Sony Xperia T to 4.1.2 a few hours ago via PC Companion 2.1. Everything was good until I restarted my phone and it got stuck in the screen with white triangle and blue bar (after the Sony logo). I waited but nothing happens.
I've tried to force restart using power button + volume up (switching off using the power button alone doesn't respond) several times but it still get stuck in the same screen. I was able to repair it using PC companion and SEUS (both were successful) but when I turned on the phone the problem still persists. Restarted several times but to no avail. I cannot use my phone right now.
What seems to be the problem?
My phone is less than a week old, unlocked, stock and not rooted. I will try to flash 4.0.4 back using flashtool coz it was working fine before the JB update.

I have read that this process can take some time, flash a rom and give it at least upto 45 minutes, if it is still not working maybe you have a more serious problem.

Re: [Q] HELP! Xperia T does not boot after JB update
I had this before, when going from 303 to 195.
Flash back the exact last full firmware you had prior to jb, if it was custom use the ftf the Rom is based on, it should boot, reset, then do the update again.
It took 35 mins to complete, I thought it was dead, once you get that screen, do not interrupt it or it can't complete and you need to start again.

OK, I was able to fix it and replicate it once but there's no certainty that it will not happen again once I restart the phone.
Here's what I did...
Since .233 did not work, I tried flashing the older firmware which is .303 - It worked!
I tried flashing .233 again to test if it has something to do with the firmware but it flashed without any problems!
I checked with PC companion to update to 4.1.2 but no update is available (since I used the UK firmware) so I flashed using the ftf file (.489) found here - it successfully flashed to 4.1.2!
HOWEVER, when the phone restarted (after inserting the sim card) and that's when the problem happened again! It stuck on the same screen. That's how I first encountered the problem earlier - the first reboot after updating caused for the phone to get stuck to that screen with white triangle and blue bar.
So I repeated the same process again (flashed .303 but skipped .233) then flashed .489 successfully but I DECIDED NOT TO RESTART THE PHONE this time. I'm not an expert so I don't know what's the cause of this??
My phone is working fine right now. Probably I will try to reboot the phone after 3 days to see if the issue comes back again.

Did the problem occur right after you updated? Or when you rebooted the phone for the first time after the update?
Mine was ok whether I updated via PC Companion or flashtool - the problem only happened when I restarted the phone for the first time after the update. So I tried not to reboot the phone on my third attempt. It's working fine now on 4.1.2. (as long as i don't restart it probably).
You can try the process I explained above and let us know!

Fix to get JB Running
I had the exact same problem, a white triangle after flashing the JB update.
Here's how I solved it:
1. Flash a .303 stock firmware
2. Turn on your phone without Sim card and without MicroSD
3. Complete the Setup Guide (just pass the 7 steps).
4. Get Ready to flash the JB update (.489 I think)
5. EXCLUDE BASEBAND BEFORE FLASHING IT
6. It should work now (is working perfectly on my Xperia T since yesterday)

I mentioned in my process above that I will wait for 3 days before restarting the phone but I did it anyway to test your process. It didn't work for me.
I followed ALL the steps but after the phone restarted (when sim card was inserted) it got stuck on the same screen again. Have you tried rebooting your phone?
Looks like I'm gonna stay with .233 for now until this gets resolved.

How do we do that in JB?
I noticed that after I flashed the .303 firmware the phone asks that internal storage be formatted (there's a notification in the notification bar). So I did that. But after updating to 4.1.2 the problem repeats again after the first reboot (stuck in the screen with white triangle).
Sounds like my problem has been solved. :good:
I repeated the process by Samper27 (except that I didn't remove the sim card; I don't have an sd card).
After updating to 4.1.2 I cleared the internal storage via the settings and performed a factory data reset - my phone restarted without any problems. I could switch it on and off now without getting stuck in that screen.
Great!

Glad to hear that! I don't know the change with the SIM Card, for my it worked like that and I have turned off and on several times. After doing that I lost my APN configuration but a quick google search and BAM, everything working smooth and battery life is a little better than before.

I have the same problem with this white triangle. The only firmware where the phone starts is .303. All other firmware doesn' start anymore.
I tried the process by Samper27, but it doesn't work for me. Could you please tell me which firmware of .303 and JB 4.1.2 you used? And what do you mean with factory data reset (Hold down the power button and volume up for 10 sec?)
Thanks
Even I gotta same problem. But my phone's screen is now blank, no LED no warning Triangles
Here goes nothing. I have an HTC One m7 unlocked and rooted. Im not sure what happened but I know when it happened. I was trying to install viperone 6.2.1 and it failed and the installer suggested flasing the latest TWRP and try again. I hit ok and my phone rebooted straight to the bootloader. I tried a reboot- straight to bootloader. I tried to go into recovery- straight to bootloader. I tried factory reset- straight to bootloader. I only had access to the bootloader. I eventually found Hasoon2000s All One Tool and flashed a recovery. Made sure I had the latest TWRP and tried viperone again. It installed correctly and I rebooted. Once it loads all I get is a lock screen that I can unlock then a white screen that says htc. It will then force restart and the same thing happens again. Next I tried Paranoid Android. It loads fully but will force restart after a few minutes. I quickly looked at my phone status inbetween restarts and everything network, mobile network type, service state, imei,imei sv are all unknown. Basically no service. Next I flashed the latest CWM recovery. I installed the latest MIUI rom. It installed and during set-up it tried looking for my SIM card and force restarts. It will re-boot and go right back to searching for the SIM card. Rinse and repeat. Next I downloaded CM11 and installed that. Thankfully that does not force restart at all but my phone status is still all unknown. So I go into networks and try mobile plan and it asks for my SIM card which is installed. Then I try mobile network settings/ network operators look for available networks and I get "error while searching for networks". I forgot to mention all the Roms had to be pushed through with adb. Does anyone have a clue as to what I might have done or how I can fix it?
Try flashing a Stock RUU

Ok well I flashed a stock rom and its doing the same thing as ViperOne. It loads and I can see the the lock screen and it will bring up the power menu if I hold down the power button. I still get the white screen with htc on it as my "background" but thats all i see. And as before it goes into a reboot cycle after a minute or so.

Flashing a "stock rom" is not flashing the RUU -- RUU and then tell us what happened (unless you really meant you actually RUU'd, not merely flashed).
If that' fails, you'll have to back of and get CM 10.1 running, that almost always fixes things.
Actually just re-read that
Flashing a ROM is completely different from flashing a RUU.
Also are you getting a dialer error when you're on that htc splash screen?
Also, yay senior member on thread.

You were installing ViperOne 6.2.1? It could be that that's what screwed you over. IIRC, Viper OTAs are Delta. The latest full ROM is 6.2.0. That is, what you flashed was an update, not a ROM. But whatever.
And as tdhite said, flashing a ROM is not the same as completely bringing your phone back to stock with the RUU tool. Do that please.
Hello all! So, I tried to install CM11, the one on this post.
Went into CWM, did Wipe data factory reset and formatted /system. when I tried installing the rom, it said operation aborted and it could not install it. No biggie, the post says to install cm10.2 before doing so.
So i Powered the phone off to copy the file over to the SD. To my surprise, now I can't get into CWM, Philz, TWRP, fastboot or flashmode. Whenever I press the back pin to power the phone off, it turns back on automatically before I have time to press the key and connect the USB cable. Furthermore, when I manage to do it quick enouhg, the green led lights up, but it fades away after 10ish seconds only to display the sony logo again, and a "can't recognize USB device" popup comes up in my PC. I've used flashtool with this same pc in the past, so I don't know what that is about. Also, whenever I try installng flashtool drivers again, just in case 2 things happen:
there is no xperia SP device listed and whatever i select it fails to install.
What can I do now? I had 4.3 with the eXistenZ Ultra ROM before all of this.
Damm, this is the first time this happens to me, I've been swapping roms for ever, and this is not even the first phone i do this in, had a galaxy s2 and a wildfire S before. I feel like such a noob
UPDATE!:
So I finally managed to fix it. I posted this after about 8-9 hours of trying to get into fastboot on the 3 different pcs in my household, all had the drivers at some point and i've worked with them and fastboot and this same phone previously, so I figured they'd still work. They didn't, I couldnot even get SUS to work. So i went to a 4th PC, installed SUS and the needed drivers and it only took like 40 minutes worth of tries. I'm in the software download part of the SUS, i'll keep this updated!
UPDATE2!:
So, it finished downloading but it suddenly disconnected, tried again for about 10 minutes and then got it going again. Downloaded the second time and installed it successfully. Leaving this up for future reference!
Bottomline: if you can't get into flashmode, try on as many PCs as you have available for at least 30 minutes each.
Don't use flash tools just install CM11 with CWM or something, use doomlord kernel to get CWM and install CM11 zip that's it.
Sorry locked boot loader didn't read it correctly don't use my advice .

No problem, it kinda sorted itself out by brute force connections :> Dammed sony, locking the bootloaders for real. I even got the sim unlock code from my phone company and it's still not bootloader unlockable at the phone settings, even though i can now get any sim i want in it -.-
Hi !
Warranty just finished of my HTC Desire 500 Dual Sim. So, I decided to root the phone. I followed the instructions available on unlockr.com.
Everything finished very well. But then after installation of SuperSU 0.9.8.zip, my phone didn't boot for next 15 minutes. So, I just took out the battery and tried to restart the phone. But it refused to restart. Then I kept the battery out for next 30 minutes and then tried to restart. After few retries, My phone started.
While accessing SuperSU application, it kept me informing about Update required. I tried to update the app, but it failed and restarted my phone. So, I downloaded the SuperSU 2.0.2.zip file from official site and kept it on sd card. And followed the process of installing SuperSU from FASTBOOT and Then Recovery. IT worked well.
After doing all this, everything seems fine. Only problem I am facing is - if I switch off my phone, it doesn't start immediately. I have to keep the battery out for next 10 minutes, and then have to re-insert the battery and then my phone will start.
Is there any way to overcome this starting problem?

Hey, i have the same problem, the only way is to not shut down the phone, but only restart it when needed. and if you want full root you should install the ultimate kernel

Thanks for your response. Can you suggest me some guide to do full root by installing ultimate Kernel.
I got the link on XDA is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52681146#post52681146
But this thread says phone needs to have software version 1.32 or 1.26. I just checked my phone's software version is 1.12. So, it means I can not install ultimate kernel.
And is there any way to coming to original kernel after installing custom kernel ?

Sure there is. you can go back anytime.
Heres how to install the Ultimate kernel.
1. Go and download boot7_no_oc.img http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2752625
2. Put the .img file to the directory of adb.
3. Connect your phone to your PC.
4. Start up ADB and type *adb reboot bootloader*
5. Your phone should restart to the bootloader, DO NOT UNPLUG THE CABLE!
6. In bootlader mode you should see FASTBOOT USB in red letters.
7. When you see that, in your cmd type fastboot flash boot boot7_no_oc.img
8. After it finishes you can type fastboot reboot.

I followed the process, you mentioned. But it didn't work. After switching off, I had to keep out the battery for another 10 mins.
then re-inserted the battery and switched on the phone.

the ultimate kernel does not solve the problem, it just helps to get full root

Thanks.
I hope any other XDA User will contribute to this thread.
According to my knowledge every HTC Desire 500 DUAL SIM user is facing the same issue after rooting the phone.
So, there should be some reason as well as solution to the problem.
S-off will helpfull for your problem. At least, restart and booting are working well immediately after power off.

Connect your phone to pc and then use adb toolkit to pass commands to your phone.
Copy latest supersu to sd card. then restart the phone into bootloader using adb commands.

Put your phone on charging for 5 minutes. then take out the battery for next 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, put the battery in, press power button, then nothing will happen at the same time. but it will take 2-3 minutes to start. After 2-3 minutes, phone will boot up with htc logo.
This is the way, I am doing with my phone.

Try to flash the stock room,maybe this will solve your problem
For flashing Stock ROM, I need ROM and Firmware both. But in XDA, there is no firmware for Dual Sim Htc desire 500. So, Can't do much
