Cripes! Read the [email protected] stickies about three button recovery!
And this is definitely not development, thread has been reported.
suua, as chambo pointed out, please read the stickies at the top of these sections. You will find all sorts of useful information referenced there, including instructions on the proper place to put new threads, and all sorts of info on getting into recovery mode.
Thread moved, and closed
So here's the deal.
it's a long story, but i happened in a short time.
I was unlocking my bootloader and stuff on my nexus one on my mac. using the boot loader.
I used the superboot to unlock it.
and so i succeed in that.
i didn't bother with the install-superboot-mac.sh thing.
i didn't know that by then.
so i went on to search about the cyanogenmod 7, and i can't get the radio refreshed. i read the article in the cm forum.
so, i saw this post somewhere,(...read hundreds of posts now)
that tells me to use the rom manager thing.
so i downloaded it, and i tells me that my phone is not rooted!
so i was wondering how this happened.
i searched online, and i found this post telling me to use that install.bat(which is for windows, mac is the one i mentioned above) thing after i unlock the bootloader.
i was a bit scared.
but i went on to the fast boot manu and i connect my computer,
i put the directory in, and then i threw the install-superboot-mac.sh thing in my phone, successful, so i rebooted my phone.
And after the first not-ANIMATED start up screen, which is the staying-X and the unlocked symbol at the bottom, the screen goes black.
i was not sure what happened. so i pullout the battery and booted it again.
same thing.
it was not until the third time i opened it and waited for it, i realized that it was my screen that's not working!
After the stable X, the system goes to the animated one, but my screen is blacked out, so i can't see.
The bottoms on the phone are still working , yet i can't see a thing!
I can still open the fastboot/bootloader screen, but after that, nothing!
the recovery don't work, it's just an android with the sign.
I'm very worried about this situation.
please reply to me!!
i really need help, since i know nothing about this.
I just thought that 2.3's cool and now i got this....
here's some info that might help,
i have the korean version of the phone, it was cheaper and stuff.
didn't notice a different except that there's no 3g?
i don't really know what's the deal with it.
but it seems to be special or something.
The phone is unlocked, but my computer fails to find it using the adb devices.
im not sure if my phone is usb debbuging.
probably yes.
Everytime i try to load the recovery, it tells me to wait for device.
I really need help!!
OK... so you might have messed up your firmware... no worries... get a custom recovery (like AmonRA recovery)... flash it using fastboot... pop in a custom ROM like CM... flash and reboot...
the thing is i can't load the recovery or the mods. so here's the problem
Do as Craig said.
Put phone into the bootloader screen. White screen with skateboarding androids.
Do your thing with fastboot.
Reboot directly into the freshly flashed recovery and install a ROM.
Read the wiki.

Read my signature, find a proper guide in Wiki ("Unroot / restore"), execute.
Next time, before you're trying anything, either find a good guide on the internet or try understanding what things actually do before you attempt them.
I've read the wiki, but is my phone compatible with the rom?
my phone's korean version..
im not sure if i can.
and i certainly can't afford another adversity.

It will work just fine, your phone isn't bricked and will be working fine in no time if you follow the advice in the posts above.
Edit: Am I the only one who wants the word 'Bricked' explicitly defined for the xda forums?
and also, since my screen is out, im not sure of weather my back up data thing is on or not, and usb debugging also
i've tried the ROMs, but the three i tried don't work.
downloading more, but i doubt if there's difference.
the device doesn't tell me to install the update, instead it just goes back to the bootloader screen

...
K, they don't really work, after checking the rom, my phone just goes back to the screen that showed up when i pressed power and volumn down
Why do people insist on receiving their instructions on a golden spoon?
Do you think you're the first one ever that got his phone corrupted? Maybe the second?
Go to Wiki, download FRG33, proceed with instructions for PASSIMG method. PUT ATTENTION THAT YOU'RE NAMING THE FILE RIGHT!
These instructions have been given in 800000000 threads by now. Look for the thread about moving from Vodafone OS version to stock Google OS. Search the forum with the words "restore stock".
What exactly are you doing?
You have a few pieces of advice that will work, but you're not really giving any details about what you are actually trying...?
Here's the link to follow Jack's advice:

just if you want to know,
i've downloaded the frg33
and i HAVE NAMED it CORRECTLY!
YET, IT doesn'T WORK
im not a retard!
after the 2 min period of searching, which is step 7, my phone goes back to the same screen
CID incorrect!
Update Fail!
Do you want to reboot device?
<VOL UP> Yes
<VOL DOWN> No
this shows up a couple of times also
Why ask for help if you're not going to do what people tell you?
With a unlocked bootloadet flash a custom recovery.
Reboot DIRECTLY into that.
Wipe and flash any rom you want.
If you don't know how to do any of the above search or read the wiki.

As albundy2010 suggested - if you have the bootloader unlocked (I didn't notice that part in the OP), just follow the guide for unlocked bootloader - fastboot flash all the partitions on the device manually. The guide is in the same place, but a different one - this time use "for unlocked bootloader".
tHANKS man!
I was such a f-in idiot...
now i can finally boot into the recovery..
I got it.. thanks guys
It's a tough flashing world out there, hey rec
I am glad you got it working
Hey guys,
First off, I am a complete noob with all this tech stuff. But I felt a little adventurous and wanted to root my One V.
I managed to unlock the bootloader and also root my phone. Phone was working perfectly fine after this. So next I tried installing some custom ROM to change the GUI. I clearly must have done something wrong because my phone is now stuck at the boot screen. I did a google search and stumbled across a page which said I have to go into Recovery mode and Back up or something. I followed the instructions and I'm still facing the same problem. It just won't go past the boot screen. I have no clue what to do next. Now I'm wondering why I even tried to do all this.
What do I do next? Please keep in mind that I'm an utter noob.
Hi all, I have searched and searched on here for what I need but just cant seem to find it. my GT-S5830 will go into dload mode but when i reboot it gives me the exclemation phone to pc sign. I have dloaded the "S5830XWKTR_S5830H3GKT4_S5830NEKT2_HOME.tar.md5" file and numerous versions of odin of which I now believe that "odin Multi_Downloader_v4.43" is the correct one for me. I think I am missing other files but am not sure. When I press start I get the message "unamed file not found" and in corner i get "killer timer"
I know this forum is designed for new users to learn for themselves and must use the search facility's etc to gain knowledge however I am an OLD new user and was wondering if anyone could help me sort this phone out. I recently rooted it (or at least I think i did) then tried to put new rom on it previous to getting the exclemation symbol. I now am trying to restore it to factory settings unrooted with my 3 carrier. maybe so that I can then root it and install new rom.... thats if I dont find getting my phone back to working condition to complicated..
Thanks in advance for any help and I am sorry admin if I am posting unhelpfully, I dont wish to clog the forum.
