If you already used all 10 attempts and you have 0 attempts left, you have to go to a local cellphone repair shop to reset the counter.

Only white screen on my Wings

Hi,
today my wings suddenly gets a white screen and now every time there is a white screen on my wings..
i tried a lot of things:
- remove battery
- remove/change sim and storage card
- HardSPL and new Rom
- the go into the extended boot mode (power+camara)
- the run the hard reset (power + two soft keys)
but every time the screen is white -.-
the only thing that works is the connection to the pc. there i can discover the files on the phone..
what can i do?
mike
:s
I did have that with my Oxygen (HTC s310) a little year ago.
But this was because I accidentally drop this phone.
In a phone store they told me that the hardware inside the phone was broken :s.
After a little insurance process I bought me a Wings.
Sow, I hope for you that there is an expert on this forum who can tell you that it is a software problem, but I'm afraid that it is a hardware problem.
I should call the HTC costumer service if I where you.
If you did not drop your phone, than you can use the guarantee.
Don't forget to revert your HSPL back up and than downgrade to the original wm6 rom before sending your phone back to the factory for the guarantee.
Good luck with it.
Greets,
Niels
ok, thank you for your post..
do you know where i can find the original rom?
yow,
ftp://84.255.212.134/download/HTC/Nadgradnje/S730/RUU_Wings_HTC_WWE_1.31.405.1R_radio_sign_25.62.30.03_1.58.17.02_Ship.exe
Succes with it.
Did you have restore your HSPL?
what do you mean with restoring your HSPL?
Must I do this before override the phone with the original rom and how that works?
Thank you,
Michael
I'm not an expert with this.
What I thought was that before you send you're phone back to the factory for call on the guarantee, than you have to restore the hard SPL.
It is illegal to update you're phone with own brewed rom's. Before you can update with such illegal rom (e.g. Alcaline's rom) you have to replace the hard-SPL with another one, which is cracked. When you send your phone back to the factory they may be check the Hard SPL, if they do and you have an cracked SPL on your phone than they don't give you the guarantee.
If there is an expert on this forum who knows better, than please correct me.
ok...
i get no guarantee because i won this phone lottery.. so i have no bill...
are there any companies who can repair my phone.. or is this to much expensive?
Ow, that bad news for you.
I don't know in what country you live.
If I where you, I should google with the words: phone rapair shop / HTC repair shop / cellular repair / etc...
Than you can find out where you can bring you're phone or send it to and what it costs.
If you can't find any prices for repairing you're phone, you could always contact a suitable repair center, asking gives no obligations.
Succes with it.
btw, if I can give you a advice,
This is how I did it with my broken HTC S310 (there was also no guarantee for it):
I searched a friend who has got a good ''general liability insurance'' (if I translated that kind of insurance good :s).
I asked him for the favor if I could give him the blame for my broken phone, so that he could give it up to his insurance. We invented a story what was acceptable for the insurance.
If you do this, you have to be sure that it gives no adverse effects for you're friend on his costs for his insurance.
Maybe this could help you.
Succes
i understand... not bad idea
i will think about it.. thanks..

[SOLVED] HTC HD7 won't start after failed update (Step 9 of 10) , Phone is Dead

I tried updating my phone and it got stuck on step 9 which was the reboot process. and the screen was just white with the HTC logo.
It was stuck on this step for a good 3 hours so i assumed something was wrong. I cancelled the update and unplugged the phone from the computer and it was stuck on the HTC screen still so i took out the battery.
And when i put the battery back in and tried turning it on it wouldn't turn on. And so now it my phone won't even turn on! I'm very frustrated. I thought at first it was dead but when i plugged it in the charger the charging light won't even come on. Tried Wall Charger and Computer
Please someone help! I need a solution
(Problem Solved by Flashing the Set with RIFF Box)
Try to put into bootloader and flash a rom from an ruu. You'll start from scratch but if it works it works.

@ Reeg420
Thanks for the Reply Man, But i try to put the Phone in Boot loader by Pressing the Volume Down Key and Power Key But no respond from the Phone...
Please advise if i am doing it Correct.
Its not showing any sign on Power at all even when i plug it to the PC or wall socket charger.
Pretty sure that's how to put in bootloader. Try to take battery out out for like 2-3 minutes, put back in then try bootloader. Doesn't make sense since the Zune updates basically overwrites files to update, not like previous windows mobile updates that wipes the the phone then replaces everything. Keep trying. Is there a possibility the battery is dead?

Whenever you update a phone and something goes wrong, it is always advised to make sure you DON'T remove the battery, especially while updating, if you hadn't removed the battery you could've ran the Windows Phone support tool. You have Bricked your mobile.
If there is no life not even charging you have bricked it.. Sorry to tell you this
You ain't the first person to brick your mobile and sadly you won't be the last
Quick Question: How were you updating your phone? via Zune client where it specifically says Do not remove the cable or battery.. Or via rom update manager for manually updating roms where it says the same thing? Hate to sound horrible but people should really pay attention to what it clearly states during updating..
Additional Info: Just thought id add and ask what you were updating, basically if you were updating either the bootloader or the radio (if these were in the update as well) you've bricked it, and with there being no life at all it tells me its dead and the cpu refuses to boot, the only way to bring it back from the dead is to JTAG it which I don't believe has been done for the HD7 yet and is a massive pain to do, Best thing you can do is send it in for repair and hope that they repair it, normally they don't
I was updating it through Zune, And it was stuck at step 9 and it was stuck like 4 hours.
Well it is is Bricked then i guess this is my Last windows Phone
I was happy with my iphone 4 but i don't know what strikes at my head that i decide to sell it and buy this stupid HD7 ( May be i am Stupid not the Phone)...
I will hit the Repair Market to get it fix through JTAG ( I search on Google and find that it's Possible for HD7) and update the thread later.
Wish me Good Luck

I know iPhone 4's are perfect, I think Apple has 0% percent returns. Oh don't forget the bumper, they are so in season... and they help to prevent drop calls.
My guess is there is a reason for the 4 hour update, possibly the phone got disconnected breifly during the update... that happens and the phone will just sit there and never finish. I have a few micro USB cords and they seem to be a bit prone to faluire after months of use. My nephew, who is 19... and well as careless as a 19 year old was holding the phone in his hand did just that, almost bricked his. Fortunately for my nephew the 7720 update program had already copied everything to the phone and it was during the reboot so it updated anyway.
Well the Update is...

Dear, I am afraid that i can't help you a lot on this as i just ask the repair shop and they said that they can fix it with the help of some hardware called RIFF Box and they did in few hours. Just to be noted that they have to disassemble your phone to so that.
regarding IMEI problem i have no idea too. Best of Luck and i can understand your feelings.

Dear all,
to be honest my phone is dead again when i try to do some ****ty update .....
i am trying to find someone to do this again. i will update accordingly soon.
I have the same problem
Hi, I have the same problem and my phone's been dead for 3 months now
I went to a repair shop in Cairo, and they did the JTag thing, but he was unable to download or install the right ROM... Everytime he tries installing a different ROM it fails and he has to start all over again.
Do you know where I can find/download the ROM that works with my T-Mobile HD7 after we do the JTag?
Still no Update....
Hey where you find a RIff box in Pakistan , I've half bricked my phone

I'm in deep trouble please help..

I was running leaked version of UCKF1 2.3.3 then I found this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1281221&page=1 so tried to flash it. I got an error of failing to upgrade and phone couldn't boot up. Then I tried heimdall one click unbricker and it worked. Then I decided to flash to stock and after odin said PASS the phone just died. It can't turn on.. no boot screen no nothing. I can't see anything moving or lighting on the phone. please help me recover the phone
It won't respond to any combos like "vol up + vol down + USB" or any others..
Search for Adam Outler's "Am I bricked?" Thread. Help you figure out where you are.
Did you you use 3 button fix jf6? If ya did you hard bricked.
Thanks for replies.
I'm hard bricked and as I get it the only solution is JTAG which is quite expensive and I'll have to send my phone to someone
Isn't there any other solutions? please help me..
Check out the UnBrickableMOD in the DEV section if sending the phone somewhere is not an option. High skill is still required but it's a good alternative if you know someone who is skilled with soldering.
I don't want to open my phone myself so I guess I'll have to send it to someone anyway.. If I use JTAG will my data be saved?
Don't pay for Jtag. Pay for Unbrickable mod. Easier to do AND you are for ever free of hard brcks.

The Linux/Ubuntu part isn't hard. Go to Ubuntu site, downloads, option 3 which is the wubi installer. If you get the windows no disc error, just keep clicking continue until the installer starts.
Thanks all.. I knew from the start of the thread that I had it hard bricked coz I have flashed all of the roms out there and soft bricked many times and fixed, so I have some experience in this.
The part I don't understand is that after I tried to flash to stock it died after that.. quite odd.. I think I'll go for unbrickable after all.. but in Georgia, where I live it's gonna be a pain to find someone able to do this neatly..
Thanks for all your support..
You can send it to adam (one of the people that worked on that) or Connexion (mobiletechvideos.com) Cost you some though.
It may just be a black screen brick, not a hard brick. Pull the battery, wait 2 minutes, replace battery. Use a jig, let it stay plugged in about 30 seconds. Hook up to Odin and see if it lights a com box. If it does, you can flash stock. If it doesn't, time to send it off. Last I heard, jtag was only about $50. Shipping I don't know about.
Of course I had tried pulling the battery and all the stuff that can be done to maintain the phone.. shipping is +20$ for international and add it the cost of shipping from here to USA.. helluva sum.. it goes like 100$.. so I left off my phone in the local "Samsung" service center. I doubt they can even handle it but at least I won't have to pay if they can't.. if they can though it'll cost around 40$ as they said. So wish me luck I guess..
UPDATE!
Hey all.. I just got my captivate from the samsung service center and it's working quite well thanks for your effort

[Q] Probably a very bricked phone I tell you...

Well hello guys... first of all: thank you for taking your time to try to help me, I really appreciate that.
Secondnly, I was about to flash a new kernel (the lates nAa) and I had fullfilled all of the requirements on the thread. But! When I was going to pick the kernel from Flashtool i accidently picked the one that comes with the flashtool (X10_V1_BLRelock.ftf) and just now when im writing this i see that it is even named: BLRelock which i think has to mean bootloader relock(?).
However, this resulted to that i cannot boot the phone, don't get any response by pressing buttons, and no green light when trying to get to flashmode.
Ive heard that your phone gets bricked if you relock it when you're on another kernel.
Have you got any solution to this?
Kind regards
Kiwiii
Please search first.Because a lot of threads concerning this issue has been opened in XDA.
And to your problem:
Its probably a Hard brick.Means,you cant revive the phone by yourselves. You may need to use JTAG or just send the phone to Sony Repair shops. They will fix it for you. If you are under warranty just say that "My phone just went of on its own!" or anything like that as the cause of the Hard Brick. Otherwise you will have to take out some money from your pocket!

Help with a Noob. Galaxy Note 8 FRP.

Hello all,
So heres my problem, i bought a Note 8 super cheap from a Rent-a-Center due to cracked back case, so i took it a person in the mall that was able to replace the back cover for me.
I then took my phone home and my kid was playing with it, a few mins later he hands it to me asking to fix, he'd put a lock on and not known what the passcode was i reset the phone....
This was my mistake, as when it came back on it asked for an email address to login with, so i entered my gmail address. didnt work. i then did some looking online to find that my kid had some how turned on the Google protection, and put in an email into it.. so i took my Note 8 with my receipt to the Samsung store who said they could remove the FRP lock as i had the receipt..
2 days later i get a phone call saying they cannot fix the FRP due to the case not being the original case.
So thats how i ended up here, because i now have my phone that i love and wanted to mod or tweak, and been reading up on it..
But now i'm stuck as i dont know enough, and no one wants to help because its not the original case, i do have the imei number etc.. but doesnt seem to matter for Samsung.
I've tried everything that i can find online about FRP locks on Note 8 without any success....
I would be grateful if someone could either help or point me in the right way.
I dont mind reading and trying things to get this fixed. but sadly i dont know enough about the note 8.
Thanks in advance for any help or advice on how to fix this.

This is a clasic issue. The most people take off the oem unlock or have a samsung account problem. When the phone restars boom is lock by frp. I have lock my note 8 too before 7 months. You can fix the frp lock very easy. You need to download an official note 8 stock rom. https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note8/SM-N950U/ or search into xda for note 8 stock rom if you cant download from this site. When you download the stock rom you need to download the flash tool https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-8/how-to/official-stock-firmware-update-odin-t3677072 when you have download the rom and the flash tool. You are ready to flash the stock rom. How to flash the stock rom? You want a pc and a note 8 usb cable and a note 8 more than 80% charged. Follow this steps https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPAgVic9GRM very easy way. You dont need more than 10 minutes to fix the frp lock.

If you can remember the email used, you can recover the password via Google, so you can login on your phone...
Just putting a google account on the phone enables FRP. Flashing with Odin or factory resetting the phone is what FRP lock is for... Factory Reset Protection.
You won't get much support here on this issue as it comes across as a stolen/found phone.

if you read my first post, i have the receipt for the phone, it was my kid who was playing with the phone before i had it activated as didnt think he really could do much damage, and if he did mess it up, i could just flash it. Samsung and ifixit said they could remove the frp as i have the receipt, however due to the case being replaced, they will not do anything now due to not the original case. so either i have a paperweight that is useless or someone knows a way round, or can give me someone that i can show the receipt to that will fix it..
Rent-a-center cannot do anything to unlock as its an frp and they said to contact samsung, i contact samsung who tell me to goto ifixit and they can do it, i goto ifixit and they said on the phone that can fix, but in person they say they cant fix due to not original case.

I understood the OP... I stand by my comment.
I Honestly think that changing the back cover does not constitute any type of violation to consider not servicing a lawful owner, the only really important factor always is LEGAL OWNERSHIP PROOF
these posts about bypassing frp appear from time to time, and always are from people that never return to post anything again

The fact that you have a receipt doesn't mean anything to us on here because we didn't give you the receipt and anybody can easily make one nowadays.. You're saying that they won't touch your phone because it's not the original case? I talked to someone I know at IFixit and was told that the case has nothing to do with it since the phone doesn't need to be opened up anyway in order to remove the FRP (Factory Reset Protection) You also said.. "I then took my phone home and my kid was playing with it, a few mins later he hands it to me asking to fix, he'd put a lock on" It would take a lot more than "playing" with it to magically end up with a gmail account and password on it.. Your kid would actually HAVE to HAVE a gmail account.. What you're saying isn't holding much water and it's exactly why we don't help people bypass the FRP security lock..

firstly heres a copy of the receipt, which Phil at Ifixit (402-932-0187) in Nebraska Furniture Mart confirmed, as he called the store and came into the store on his day off and talked to me and Justice Keene at the store.
https://mega.nz/#!tlkxHAIA!r4ooTH9Scy9yVwrPzk8b9gSY4OiNs4gK3xPWNL1Av5Y
as u can see the shop owner wrote on the receipt, included her business card, as the information..
That was confirmed by Tim in person and on the phone. He told me bluntly in the store that he would have been able to do it, but as the back cover doesnt have the imei on number on the sticker, samsung wont fix it.
I've put in a complaint to Samsung concerning not being able to help due to the cover. I've also written a complaint to Ifixit at Nebraska Furniture Mart concerning this.
I really dont care if someone even wants to call Ifixit in Nebraska to ask, or call Rent a Center on (402) 408-0710 to confirm that i bought the phone from them.
As i didnt steal or find the phone, i have everything i need including Rent a Centers information, and best part is, if anyone knows anyone in Rent a center, with the IMEI number they can confirm it was a cash sale made at omaha 90th and mapple store.
all i want is someone to help, or if someone knows someone in Samsung, or Ifixit that will help, as the store in Nebraska Furniture Mart doesnt want to help.
you for one thing, should/ must figure out which email your son allegedly registered, as it must indeed be a valid one, as for finding someone here to help you, I think no one is going to, if everything you say is true, I wish you good luck
