I tried to flash the system.img to my VZW Dev Ed and now when I go to boot I am stuck on the logo screen that talks about the unlocked bootloader. Nothing I do will let me power down or get into fastboot or recovery. Without being able to take the battery out, I am pretty clueless on how to get this thing into fastboot so I can reflash.
Any suggestions?
I tried holding the power button and all that does is shut off the screen and next time I touch a button it goes back to getting stuck on the logo screen.
Edit: Oh and this is what happens if you try and flash the system.img with fastboot instead of mfastboot.......I fail
NM: I finally held both volume buttons and the power button for like 20 seconds and it took me into fastboot

So I was going to install the InsertCoin 3.0-3 ROM and decided to update to the 2.24 firmware first. I changed the CID (I have the AT&T version) to 11111111 and installed the update as follows
you can flash it from fastboot
adb reboot bootloader (or reboot to bootloader via APM)
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware-2.24.401.1-custom.zip
after it finish YOU WILL NEED TO RUN IT AGAIN
fastboot flash zip firmware-2.24.401.1-custom.zip
You should see successful at the end. Now type:
fastboot reboot

Rebooted into recovery (TWRP 2.5) and the touchscreen doesn't work. Eventually, the TWRP lock screen comes up and of course, I can't unlock it because the touchscreen doesn't work. I know the phone isn't frozen because after 30 seconds or so, the screen will turn off. Pressing the power button will turn the screen back on and the time/battery changes.
Holding down the power button makes the back and home button flash, but does not restart the phone. Holding down power+vol down does the same thing.
What do I do now? Fastboot and adb don't work so I can't restart that way

REASON:- THE NEW FIRMWARE HAS MODIFIES TOUCH SCREEN DRIVERS(its a known problem with TWRP v2.5.0.0)
SOLUTION :- press and hold power+volume and keep it pressed for almost a minute(the back light flashes 11 or 12 times turns of and then you will reboot)
Do this again or even one more time!!(also try simply power button for long)
it does the trick

I am stuck on this as well (HTC One [M7] Sprint running TWRP 2.5.0.0) and the power button + volume (ive tried both) doesnt seem to reboot the phone. Is there another solution to reboot or do i have to wait for the battery to run out of juice?
Hello. I have a razr I and decided to unlock the bootloader. I tried the button combination power + volume down several times, but the phone just powers up normally (actually rhe screen flashes for a second, but doesn't go into fastboot mode. I trided using adb reboot fastboot but the device just reboots. What can I do about it?
NVM, just did it by fastboot reboot bootloader...
Ok, one more thing. It seems my device ignores the key combo, but I was still able to get into fastboot mode by using adb. However, I have tried to flash a custom recovery with no success.
I tred using the supplied installer and after rebooting I get to the open robot screen with the red exclamation mark. Then, after holding some keys (not sure if power or power + volume down I get into recovery, but it's still the stock android recovery. Then I tried flashing the recovery image from fastboot mode. It sait the recovery was flashed, but still cannot boot into recovery. What's wrong with my phone?

Just incase you need to do it in the future:
Hold volume down, then hold the power button. When it begins to vibrate release the power button and keep the volume down button pressed until you get into fastboot.

I had a similar problem with my phone.
What I did was instead of trying to get into recovery, I just went to fastboot and flashed the recovery image again and it work.
You may want to try that. (Flash the custom recovery again).
He cant do that, dont try flash recovery, your bootloader is locked, it wont work.
Hold volume down and power button, you will see home and back flash at the bottom, just keep holding till your phone goes off, then hold then volume down only as the phone restarts, should take you into the bootloader.
What did you do to get it stuck in a boot loop ?

I seem to have a similar issue. The problem is that I do not have enough time to select recovery (nor any other option) from the bootloader menu. The phone reboots again before I can choose and confirm my selection. Any pointers?

You have bootloop in the bootloader? If yes then you have a serious problem, probably hard bricked.
Hi,
I'm very new to rooting and such and only followed guides a read forum posts to get to where I am now.
My phone is rooted with stock ROM and SU, the bootloader is unlocked but no S-OFF (don't think it's possible on the mini 2 yet anyway). The new OTA update last night installed when I got home and charged my phone, then the phone just shut off and every time I tried to boot it would go straight into TWRP without showing splash screen or bootloader (even when holding power and the volume down button). When it's in this state the touch screen doesn't work and the power button only locks the phone. Holding power + vol down in this state doesn't do anything.
I have to let the power drain completely to get the phone to boot back up but it immediately boots back into recovery and then I can use ADB to force the bootloader to appear, but when I flashed the stock recovery that I found in these boards, it messes up the screen and all it shows is static with some artifacts. I have to let the power drain again to get back into the bootloader, and from the bootloader I can get the android OS to boot but I'd like to fix this completely.
I guess I should also mention that even after flashing the stock recovery the phone will still boot back into TWRP after I let the power drain so I think that means that the stock recovery isn't taking?
The twrp problem you mentioned is known, hope it'll be fixed soon. Are you sure you typed the right command to flash stock recovery? Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img?
If you get stuck, the combination is power button and volume up, not volume down...

Unfortunately I was using the wrong ADB command, I was typing "fastboot boot recovery.img". This seems to have fixed the problem so far but I have yet to try rewriting TWRP back to the phone and I probably won't until theres a fix or unless I need to.
Thank you for your help.

if holding the power button for a period LONG he does not turn off ( TRY VERY VERY VERY )
You'll have to open the phone and remove the battery ... and put off again
Well it's simple .
Just need the right key and a tutorial on the Internet
