So hey guys, I just want to start off by saying that I really appreciate your help in this because I really messed up and keep in mind that this is my first Android device and I'm currently a total noob.
So my problem has a back story and here goes. So i decided that i wanted to root my phone and try to put CyanogenMod on it to get a somewhat similar experience to stock Android. So i used a YouTube video and successfully rooted my phone. After i rooted it i found out that CyanogenMod didn't have a stable or RC release for my AT&T HTC One so i decided i should unroot it and so i got the RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_Cingular.exe file from another YouTube video and everything was going fine until the installer said that i have an error and the installer closed down, and now I'm left with a black screen with an HTC logo and four caution indicators in the four corners. I tired to shut down the phone nothing happens, I tired to hard reset it and nothing happened the same screen stayed up. I was hoping that someone on this forum could help me cause you guys are my last resort.
Thanks in advance for any help, it means a lot.
Found a solution please close the post.

Read through it once. Then go back, read it again. And finally, read it a third time. THEN start working on your phone.
Hey guys
Need Some help here
I own a yr and a half old Galaxy S I900,Until 6 months back i was still stuck on froyo (2.2)..Never bothered to upgrade my phone as i was happy and satisfied with froyo itself.But 1 evening when i went to sleep,i kept my phone right next to my hand and when i woke up,it was on the ground switched off..Restarted it and to my surprise all my contacts and all the apps and settings were gone,the only things remaining were the images and music/videos.I thought it was a s/w problem so instead of reinstalling froyo i would bite the bullet and switch to ICS itself and skip gingerbread entirely.
So i came to this forum and started reading up on stuff and contacted a few people asking for help,a few responded and guided me through installing CWM and then i installed The Dark Knight rom..it was good for upto 4 months.1 day the battery completely drained off,i tried charging it.Tried starting the phone,it wouldnt do that at all,tried a lot of things but it dint work,qouldnt switch on at all.so i went to recovery and reinstalled the rom.installation went smooth in CWM but when it was supposed to go to the place where we select the Language,it came "ENCRYPTION UNSUCCESSFUL",RESET PHONE.so i did that but again it booted up to that screen,after 3-4 times doing the same thing,it went to the screen with the language,selected it and finished setup,but after a week or so it suddenly restarted again and again that same bloody page " Encrypttion unsuccessful".Now i thought there was something wrong with the rom,so upgraded to the latest dark knight rom.again the same problem..
Now thinking i had to try out a new ROM,i shifted to cyanogen rom..worked for a few days but again today that same page booted up.I sincerely dont know what to do now.If anyone could help me i would be really grateful.

Hello,
This is my first time posting here, and I would like to request anyone on here to please assist me with the problem I am currently facing. I bought an unlocked, rooted HTC One with stock Android 4.3 installed as it's sole, primary OS this past summer. The person I bought it from is the one who actually rooted the phone, as my knowledge of such processes is fairly limited. I understand there are plenty of complications that I may run into dealing with this problem on my own and technical references may be lost on me, but I'm fairly competent enough to follow instructions from someone who may be able to help.
Here's the problem: I received an Android 4.4 OS update yesterday, which downloaded automatically and asked me if I wanted to install it. I thought the process would be fairly simple and I would not encounter any problems. However, when I asked the update to register and install, first it went into boot (I'm not certain which software was used for root), then the process started and everything seemed to be going fine until 'Patching files onto the whatever' came up and then it appeared that I encountered an error and the phone automatically went into what I can only assume is the bootloader menu? There were big Stock Android looking buttons on it which said things like Install, Root, Settings and a few others I don't recall. I tried to hit Install to see what happened and it brought me back to the part where 4.4 was supposed to be installed and I could read the error message at the end of it which said something like 'Error in patching files to zip folder or something', and I went back to the supposed bootloader menu. Confused and afraid, I think I pressed a button which I felt would allow me to reboot my phone and bring me back to my original 4.3 OS and that I would still be able to use my phone. First it said something like 'You no longer have root permissions', and there was an option where I could slide to apparently 'fix this', but I selected the 'don't fix' option as I obviously had no idea what I was doing. After this, the phone attempted to reboot, and a turquoise blue screen with strange markings came up on it and my phone hung. I killed the phone with the master power button and held it to switch off the phone.
BUT now, even since that has happened, my phone appears to be dead. It isn't starting up. When I put it on charge, the red LED doesn't show up. I have tried to used several ways to turn on my phone but it just wouldn't work.
I would like some light to be shed on this particular problem, and if anyone has experienced something similar to this, PLEASE, help me in fixing this. I am an eager learner and despite my limited, close to non-existent knowledge about dealing with a phone's OS, I know I can learn fast and follow instructions cleanly.
Please help me. Thank you.
Hello guys,
I've been messing around with my Motorola Razr i XT890 the last couple of days, trying to get it "back to life".
It suddenly shut down and would get stuck on the red "M" logo, right when the animation would start (the white wavey-type of lines freeze and that is all it would do. I, myself, am not really much up to date on rooting, installing custom roms, you know; the whole developing thing (I find it interesting, it is just that I lack time to be able to learn more). Anyway, the phone got stuck and I've managed to factory reset it, after a while the phone would freeze and again get stuck on the red logo, this went on until it would not boot at all. All I got was a short vibration and the green led would light up for like one second. Using this forum I've found a solution to bring it back to the point it would get back into fastboot (Actually holding the camera button down with usb attached, install some specific drivers and then run a batch file).
At this point this is my situation:
I'm stuck on fastboot, however I turn on the phone it will get into fastboot (see attached image to see what it says)

I, for some reason, have Philz Recovery installed and tried to use adb sideload to install a few files but my biggest problem is that I'm not sure which firmware I need, I'm really confused about all the terms and what not. I'm not the type of person that pays much attention and like knows the difference between JB or KitKat or whatever. All I know is that the phone was purchased in Germany along with a contract with either Vodafone or O2 (really not sure). I have so many files and tools installed on my PC and I would like to delete everything and start from scratch. I have fastboot and adb working (except for RSDLite, for some reason it just won't recognize the device, while adb sideload did work....haven't figured that one out yet.
If any one happens to know. or can post a link for 1 or 2 versions of the firmware and help me out. Just point me in the right direction, I know my way around a computer but like I said, I've never really done much in this area
I bought a new model Motorola soon after this one crashed the second time, so it's not even about the phone itself. I kind of challenged myself to get it working again, on top of that, it was a very good phone and I got really used to it. These new big screens are too much for me so if I get it working I might actually start using it again lol.
Also thanks to all of you who put time and effort in helping people who have these kind of problems, it's a really nice community overall and I've gotten to like it and will try to spend more time learning about this. I might just help out some lost soul myself some day
PS; sry about the green lol, I actually just realized it...I just can't be bothered cropping it out
As I was typing this large portion of text below, my phone kinda just came back to life on its own.....that was really ****ing weird. Thank you all for being here for newbies, I searched for help and my phone kinda did it's own thing. first post fail. lol
"I had broken my S6 a few days ago and the screen is completely blank and no touch. Sad story because that was my 3rd one, I have had two replacements due to the battery and it being a crap phone.
Anyways, to the man subject, I had a S5 laying around that I accidentally dropped while I was factory restoring it and the battery came out. I fixed THAT boot loop two days ago and yesterday I somehow managed to do something that caused it to get stuck on the AT&T screen, again. I am a noob but I have tried several thing such as trying to update from SD, tried ODIN as suggested, but it won't detect my device whatsoever. I do not understand how this all is so confusing and nobody can seem to make one golden post to explain it all to people simply. "
