Hey Guys,
After installing CM on my Xperia Z and trying to get back into recovery I noticed that I was always getting a picture of a dead green android guy with a red triangular sign with an exclamation mark on it.
I have read that there might be the possibility of having to use a certain combination to get into recovery - but I wasn't able to find it on Google.
Any experiences here? You guys know the answer?

Try to re install the recovery

I have a G1 that was given to me stuck on the exclamation point screen.
I've tried various update.zip methods, When i try to update it says it can't read from the recovery. It'll install the update like normal it seems, but then when it reboots, go right back to the exclamation point screen.
It was never rooted. Not sure what version was on it when it bricked
I've searched the forum all day trying to find a thread like this.
Does anyone have any insight into how to fix this?
Thanks

Not sure what rom you tried to put on it but I would bet the camera button is stuck.

Should be the home button in this case. If it was the camera he'd see rainbows, with home it takes you to recovery (the ! screen)
exactly. thanks for the help.
I replaced the buttons and now everything works.
Hi guys, need some advise here.
I have purchased for a ridiculously small amount of money a non-working G1. It's non-working because when it's turned on the G1 page comes up shortly follows the a white triangle with an exclamation mark in it with picture of the G1 lying next to it. I can get into the recover console by pressing alt+l nad have tried wiping the device and installing an offical Android 1.6 update.zip but all that happens with that is says the installation was aborted.
Is there any hope for this phone or should I just shelve it for spare parts?

WHAT official update.zip? You need one signed with the proper keys, which are related to the vendor.
I downloaded this file: http://android-roms.googlecode.com/files/signed-kila-DRC83-from-CRC1.c41b93c1.zip and renamed it to update.zip.

Wow. I'm surprised that anyone could actually expect that to work. Geeze. Did you bother looking at the file size? 14.5 MB? Your first hint should have been the word "from" in the file name..... it is NOT A COMPLETE SYSTEM!!! It is PARTIAL.
This one MIGHT work, *ASSUMING* that you have a phone branded tmobile-USA, which I find HIGHLY UNLIKELY given that you're flying the Union Jack... http://code.google.com/p/android-ro...=signed-kila-ota-148830.de6a94ca.zip&can=2&q=
I suggest hunting a little longer and finding an FULL update.zip applicable to YOUR PHONE.
Go to the rooting thread and download DREAIMG.nbh and follow the steps in the guide for flashing that. This will (should) get you to stock 1.0 Android RC29.
First of all @lbcoder: OUCH! Ok I understand that my mistake was n00bish but you don't need to be quite so soul shatteringly brutal. Thanks for the help anyway though
@isobane: Thanks for the tip, I'll hunt the file down as see how that goes
Right, I can't install the custom recovery because I can't get into fastboot, I can only get into the regular recovery screen. Also adb doesn't recognise that the phone is attached when I ask it to list connected phones. Is it time to give up with this or does someone have any other ideas?
Here is the UK version of the 1.6 OTA update. http://android.clients.google.com/up...7.a7b90b4e.zip

ADB isn't going to recognize your phone unless it is rooted. How can you not get into fastboot? What happens when you try? You may actually be getting into it without knowing so.

Holding down any of the other buttons on boot (camera button, back button, home button etc) does nothing. When booting the G1 screen comes up then the white triangle appears. I can press ALT+L to get into recovery but nothing else.

Whoops accidental thanks.
Put in battery before trying to go into SW update mode, it works for me and prevents the random colours. Then KDZ flash your phone back to life.

Hi all, sorry if this is in the wrong thread, please move it if is. I tried rooting my SCH-1935, but i couldnt find a thread for that model. When i was rooting it as it had the android logo and the loading screen right after the rooting process was almost done it bought be to stock recovery before it was finished and had some red text and now my phone is basically boot looping. Can anyone shed some light on this?
EDIT* This worked for me, it took a while to boot, just don't pull the battery lol.

Wrong thread its in the wrong forum
Hello,
This is a kind request to help me with un-bricking my phone, in turn resetting to a usable phone again. (HTC One M7 - bought it in Dubai- hence International?)
I received the OTA update today, for the lollipop version 5.0/5.1, doesn't matter i guess..
It took approximately 2 hours for the green bar to fill up below the sync-htc mark on the phone. Then on hence, i've had a 'red triangle with an exclamation mark', stuck on my screen like a plague.
A short history on what i've done with the phone : 'NOTHING'.
i have the misfortune of owning a 6.09.401.11 kernel version (4T), for which i cannot find an RUU.
I have little to no experience with adb and/or flashing roms. Though, i have tried stuff on my other phone for the sake of fun.
I am looking for a solution to this 'Red triangle with an exclamation mark'. I trust xda is the best place to seek an answer.
Looking for urgent help,
Thanks,
Shashank

Red triangle during ota update = phone is not 100% stuck.
hold volume up then press power and you'll see the error message. Post it here.
Also post the output of "fastboot getvar all"
