Hey fellas, i'm desperate cos i've bricked my friend's droid 3 (XT860) while trying to flash cyanogen mod 10.1 to it.
I do not remember which version it was but i'm almost sure it was a 5.2.420 - Android 2.3.5.
I rooted the phone and flashed clockworkmod recovery using Rom Manager, wiped both data and cache, installed cyanogenmod 10.1 and gapps, and wiped data and cache again. After rebooting, the phone was stucked on the 'Dual Core' logo. I can go into recovery but i no longer have clockworkmod installed nor can i try to reinstall the ROM again.
After trying some stock flashing and getting a boot failure error message, im now with this AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S) (Boot Failure) Screen.
Could anyone please help me? It's my friend phone!
I'm sorry about my english.
Thank you for your time!
You can restore/unbrick it to the stock ROM, which will allow you to start over from a clean slate. I suggest using Safestrap instead of CWM/Rom Manager.

Unhelpful response is unhelpful. Though you have some good info in your signature:
Looks like you want to flash to the first ROM here: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=21
Flashing instruction here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/...10GSijVrg/edit?pli=1#bookmark=id.rvj235ud4nkd
StrelokPDA said:
Do you have a better idea? Is the XT862 ROM going to brick his already bricked phone? Or give him a chance to boot it, and start with a somewhat working system (even if the radio etc. might not work correctly)... I don't claim to be a smart phone guru, but your response isn't very helpful.

I am looking at a phone for a friend of mine. It's a original Droid. It will not boot to the OS, it just sits at the M logo for hours and hours. I have got it into recovery mode by powering on and holding up on the D pad. I then used RSD Lite to reflash VZW_A855_FRG01B_QSC6085BP_C_01.43.01P_SW_UPDATE_01 to it. It says it finished and passed, but still sits at the M logo. Any ideas?
::tap tap tap:: Is this thing on?
Guess not. Thanks for all the help. Sure am glad I own an iPhone.
can you try with another custom rom?
So i hope someone responds to this.
My og Droid is stuck at the M logo. i can get into bootloader and Clockworkmod revoery mode, but i cant actually boot into the OS.
So when i first got it a few days ago, i did a factory reset. I then rooted it, which worked, and then installed rom manager. i made a back up twice to be sure, then tried to flash to Kfazz's Jellybean ROM. It said success, but after that i was in a boot loop. I read on how to fix this, but adb wont find the device until it is in the OS, so i popped out the battery and restored from my backup, but now it just stays at the M logo. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
The M logo is the bootloader's logo. Since the droid has unlocked bootloader it is possible that something messed it up.
Can you restore the stock bootloader?

So i tried it and im not actually sure how to reset the bootloader. Thanks again and any help is always apprecieated.
Go into recovery and wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache. Then try and boot it up. If that fails download a new rom wipe everything above again, then flash the new rom, the m logo is not the bootloader nothin u did had anything with the bootloader. I have this problem once in a when flashin a kernel or new rom

I actuLly used CM9, but i cant get the touch screen or touch buttons to work. I may just have to use a different build, or roll back to an ealier cm build.
I am pretty new to ROOTing android phone. I wanted to upgrade my HTC incredible S to Jelly bean. I was successfully able to UNLOCK the phone. But in recovery menu, i have installed/flashed the Jelly bean (PACman-v19.3-VIVO-BLINDNDUMB.zip) OS before installing Superuser. Now the mobile is booting only in recovery mode everytime. Please help me on this. Is my phone gone for good?
I guess that you are probably s-on. Do the following steps. Format all partitions except the sd card using the recovery. I hope you installed a custom recovery like Cwm or 4ext after unlocking your bootloader. If you have, then flash the ROM again. Then reboot your phone into the bootloader and fastboot flash the boot.img.

When i boot up the phone, it says the process system has not running wait or ok, when i push ok or wait. after about 40 seconds the phone just freezes up.
I tried to root my phone from the methods provided from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/root-moto-x-att-xt1058-5-1-lpa23-12-21-1-t3164125
I downloaded the necessary files for my specific device. Everything went fine in the flashing process. I booted my phone to check if it was the correct build version, and it was right (LPA23.12-39.7).
I proceeded to the next process, which was running the BLBROKE and RUN_Root file to root my phone. After the RUN_Root process finished ~15 minutes, my phone bootlooped. I tried to re-flash the LPA23.12-39.7 software, but it bootlooped again.
So I performed a hard reset. AFter the hard reset, it bootlooped again and this error showed up: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzXaUzs8MoBWSWRWbnh2TG9VTVU/view
I can get to fastboot and Qualcomm Emergency Mode, but anything I have done so far will come back that flashing dead android doll. Any help please? Thanks.
try flashing stock rom, chose the one you were using before brick.

I've found this post really helpful
So after I did this first step (flash stock firmware via fastboot) I was able to overcome bootloop issue and install root
Hope this helps!
