Hate to ask such a basic question but are you definitely holding the *down* volume and power key? I think I had something similar happen to me once (and only once) but I think I'd been holding the up volume instead of the down and thought that must have caused it...

Yes danny, im sure im holding the volume down, no matter what I do , the phone would boot to this only screen

Have you tried ADB?

Have you tried booting in the hboot via fastboot?

yes did try ADB, but computer won't recognize the phone

Looks like the recovery image on your device does not exist or is corrupted. Install the recovery image (ClockWorkMod) via the bootloader or via fastboot. Both are easy methods. Just search for the installation process in the forums.

I'm really sorry nobody with a bit more experience has managed to find anything much to suggest so far, I really feel for you! Googling around a bit I found this for another HTC phone - might be worth trying.
Pull the battery, hold down the volume up key and stick the battery back in and press the power button keeping the volume up held down. After that (apparently that does a different type of boot again), pull the battery once more, this time hold down the volume down button and stick the battery back in. Hit the power still holding the power down and see if that lets you back to recovery...
It's not much but better than nothing ands worth a try. The other site it was mentioned on it worked for getting back to the recovery menu but it was a different device...

Thank you danny for mentioning this, i already tried that too, i think the device is bricked , i am going to try a box one of my friends has, then ill post what will happen here..
thank you again for all who shared their knowledge

That must be a new method of bricking a device. Never heard anything similar. One should think twice before updating YouTube lol
Sent from my Incredible S using XDA

can you try one more thing?
- Get a ROM with the recovery image contained in the zip file. The name should be recovery.img. If not get a recovery image for IncS and copy it over into the ROM's zip file
- Then rename the ROM zip file to update.zip and put it on the SD card
- Then boot the phone using the Vol Down+Power button to go into HBOOT
See if HBOOT will detect this update.zip file and automatically flash the ROM.

Nothing but that screen i am able to get, no hboot no recovery, i used the ORT box, to fix the hboot, and now working like charm

I've never encounter a situation where after youtube.apk update you need a reboot..
Are you sure it was 'just' the youtube you changed. Also was it offical via Playstore?

Need help booting into recovery (TWRP)

I'm a bit of a noob here and the first and last phone I ever rooted/installed ROMs on was the S4 which to say was fairly simple with lots of detailed threads. I have no idea how to get into TWRP to start flashing on my D415.
For the record I first used towelroot to root, then I successfully followed aSuperSaiyanG0D's thread and unlocked my bootloader, I then proceeded to use ROM Installer to flash shoxxy's TWRP.img to my recovery.
Is there a hardware button combo to get to recovery like the Galaxy? What do I do from here? I tried using reboot to recovery in ROM Installer and the LG logo pops up, then the Android guy for a second, then the LG logo again which is followed by loading up my phone normally. Thanks very much in advance!

Key combos to enter recovery are tricky. I'd use Terminal Emulator. You say you're already rooted.
Open Terminal Emulator, if you don't have it, download from the Play Store. Type:
Code:
su
reboot recovery
Key combos -> READ CAREFULLY ::
Power off device
Press and hold Volume Up + Power until LG Logo appears. While still holding Volume Up, quickly release and press and hold Power button until Factory Reset screen appears. Don't worry, this won't reset your device with any of the newer recoveries available. Use Volume Up/Down to navigate and Power to select. You must select 'Yes' twice before you will boot to recovery. It will take a few seconds after choosing "Yes" the second time before the recovery will boot.​I would also highly suggest enabling fastboot mode. There is a thread in the L90 forums just for that.

Rereading your post it sounds like TWRP didn't get installed correctly. Download "Flashify" and use it to flash your recovery image. I know it works as I use it, LOL!

[Q] Unable to bootafter aborted lollipop update. (moto g 1068 DS)

Hi,
After getting the lollipop update notice, i downloaded and tried installing the same. But after reboot at about 2/3rd installation of new system it aborted with no error at an icon with dead android. This icon persisted for a long time and i rebooted the mobile. Now it is stuck at "powered by android" message with no progress.
I have tried so far:
- vol down button and power: Recover option. This gave me no command error.
- vol up button and power: delete /data and /cache. The mobile automatically rebooted and is stuck at the same message - "powered by android"
How I can recover my mobile? either to stock 4.4.4 or 5.0
My cell is stock 4.4.4, dual sim 1068 (Indian version)
Thanks for any help..

I have the same problem as you, have you found any solution yet?

If you can get to fastboot mode by holding power and volume down till screen goes blank -- count 1,2,3,4,5 release both and recovery should come up.
run my installer in signature, ignore device not found and hopefully it will flash your xt1068

External Reset
If you are unable to access the phone's menu to perform the standard reset you can attempt an external factory reset.
Notes:
When using this feature; everything is deleted from the device.
Reset will require a minimum battery level of 25%. If you are unable to perform a reset, please charge for 20-30 minutes and try reset again.
1. With the phone powered off, press the VOL DOWN KEY for 2-3 seconds then POWER key then release.
2. The device will display different BOOT OPTIONS (THIS IS BOOTLOADER SCREEN)
2A GOTO 3 TO RESET OR RUN MY SCRIPT FROM SIGNATURE ( YOUR CHOICE)
3. Use the VOL DOWN Key to SCROLL to Recovery and VOL UP Key to select
Tip: If the device reboots, you may have waited to long to make a selection, you will need to begin the process again.
4. The device will display the Motorola logo and then the Android in distress ( logo with Exclamation mark)
5. Press and hold the VOL UP key for 10-15 seconds. While still holding the VOL UP key tap and release the POWER key
Tip: You can try this step, holding the phone in landscape. If you are stuck on step 6, try a force reboot by pressing the Power key and Vol Down key, and start the process again.
6. The device will display additional menu options (Text will appear in BLUE)
7. Use the VOL DOWN Key to scroll to Wipe data / factory reset and the POWER Key to select this option
8. Use the VOL DOWN key again to select YES - delete all user data and press the POWER key to CONFIRM
9. Once the Formatting is complete, press the POWER key to confirm a REBOOT
10. The device will reboot and start the normal power up sequence

your initial issue was that you DIDINT format data when you first flashed twrp. please read dr.ketans guide in the guides and discussion thread.
when the phone reboots by holding vold down and power, very very quickly swap to the DL button combo(vol down + bixby) and plug cable. reflash twrp 3.2.0.0 and follow the instructions. ( when odin fisnishes flashing twrp in the AP slot, DONT let phone boot to home screen or at all. immediately hold vol up +bixby +pwr to enter twrp recovery. then swipe to allow modification and go directly to wipe menu and format data. type yes when asked. go to reboot menu and choose reboot to recovery and flash

jd14771 said:
follow these steps, you must be fast and diligent with the button combinations:
-first, plug phone into computer
-Second, HOLD POWER + VOLUME DOWN until device restarts, as SOON as the screen goes black you must let go of all buttons and immediately hold VOLUME DOWN + BIXBY
-you should be in download mode.
the phone has to be OFF and plugged into a computer BEFORE you hold VOLUME DOWN + BiXBY in order to enter download mode. You can not trigger this while the phone is on.

Bricked my S20 FE, can't get out of bootloop or power off

Hey guys, I recently tried to root my Samsung galaxy S20 FE and ended up in a boot loop.
Phone Info:
Model: SM-G780F
Country code: AUT
Software-Version of the Carrier: SAOMC_SM-G780F_OXM_AUT_RR_0002
Name of the downloaded firmware file: Samfw.com_SM-G780F_AUT_G780FXXU2CUCC_fac
Here's what I've done:
1. Quick Setup, enabled Development Options
2. Check allow OEM Unlock
3. Unlock Bootloader
4. Factory Reset
5. Download Stock Firmware - I downloaded the firmware for my country and phone model but it was a 2 version newer base build, maybe this caused the boot loop?
6. Extract AP
7. Add boot.img.lz4 to boot.img.tar via 7zip
8. Transfer file to Phone and download Magisk Manager
9. Patch file via Magisk manager and transfer resulting File to PC
10. Boot in download mode and flash ap via Odin
11. Reboot
12. Boot Loop

Result of Odin Flash
The Problem is that i can't get out of the boot loop to flash a new image or wipe cache in stock recovery.
When i press volume down + power at the boot screen the phone turns off and instantly turns on again. I tried letting go of volume down + power after the phone turns black and instantly press volume up + power, no success. I tried connecting the phone to power, this results in a charging image which is stuck and can only be escaped from via the soft reboot, volume down + power, which results in a loop again.
Does anyone has an Idea what I did wrong and how i could unbrick my phone? Right now I'm letting it run out of battery to give it some more tries of getting into recovery or download mode.
Thx for any help.

How do i restart in download and recovery? I only can soft restart and can't power of from the boot loop.

To start in download mode ...
press and hold the volume up + volume down keys at the same time
Then connect your Galaxy to a computer using a USB-C cable.

Lol makes sense, if i use a boot.img from another firmware i have to fully flash the other firmware parts aswell.

in step 7 you say you added boot.img.lz4 to boot.img.tar before you patched the boot.img with magisk. unless it's me missing something you may wanna recheck your steps before you try again.

no you don't, when you said you'd added it that threw me.
basically extract it the boot.img, patch it from the phone, put that back onto PC and compress it and place into tar archive, flash the whole firmware.
