I attempted to install transparent cm7.2 status bar and phone bricked (fastboot). I fixed it and installed other phone model's cwm with windows cmd command (stupid, I know). After this I'm always stuck at lg screen. Can't get into recovery either. Lg update tool does not find the phone, neither does cmd.exe. I sometimes get the ''colored snow screen'' or whatever I should call it. But it doesnt change the fact that the phone can't be recognized by anything.I can't turn the phone in any mode, it always starts with the lg screen.

I got an LG Optimus V. I rooted it today and everything was fine until i tried to load a custom rom through rom manager. I did a factory reset and now my phone is bricked. Upon power up i get the LG logo then a black screen. It will not let me enter boot mode or emergency mode.

I SOFT BRICKED my lg e730 while trying to install HarshGinger v3.
I tried to root my phone, and everything was ok until I tried to install the rom. I saw in recovery how the rom was installing, and when all was completed the phone entered into a boot loop. I think that I should install first a stable cyanogen mod and then harshginger.. I think this is what I done wrong. The phone it`s soft bricked because I can reach to the emergency mode screen.
Question: I can do a reboot from ADB or I have to use KDZ? KDZ looks like the type of program used by the smart people and I`m not really that smart. I am looking for a simpler solution, like a combination of buttons or something.

Ok so I rooted my LG Optimus F6 yesterday, I used root uninstaller to get rid of stock apps but by accident or careless I must have deleted LG setup wizard.. I later on that day Master Reset the phone and Now I can't get my phone to load up.. It turns on and brings me to LG setup wizard but says it unexpectedly stopped, I've tried hard resetting and I've went into safe mode and it brings up the message at the home screen, Home screen has unexpectedly stopped. Is there anything I can do to restore my phone back or somehow download setup wizard and install on to my phone from the PC. Also my PC isn't recognizing my phone so I can't even get into the files from the PC..

I uploaded a custom rom on my xperia x10, for that i unlockd the bootloader and stuff..
Now, my phone is switched off since 15 days, when ever i try to switch it on, it vibrates once and nothing at all afterwards...if i press power button again, it won't vibrate, unless and untill i remove the battery and reinsert it in phone..
i see three red flashes of light, when connected to PC..
1. PC Companion for update, repair and custom repair is not working...most of the time phone is not detected..
2. SE-update service is also not working and phone is shown as Xperia arc..
3. Flashtool, doesn't recognize the handset
4. few, technician told me box flash would work, but again, it didn't work out
Now, i don't know much about this, but i do understand that hardware seems to be good, till now, the only issue is software and that to initial boot process i.e. bootloader.
is there any other way i can upload a new custom rom on my xperia ??

I have a [Gen2] ZTE v9 Tab which had 2.2 as the stock OS which I managed to get upgraded to 2.3 using modcore everything was gr8. I pushed my luck little further and tried to install Android ICS in order to do that I did a TPT using image file and after doing that my tab is bricked.
It's not booting into the OS I tried to get into the FTM mode but that doesn't work now only thing that work's is the ADB I tried the recovery methods that can be done through ADB but it says "sh:/sbin/recovery xxxx" missing.
What I think is that the system partition was recreated and Is there any way that I can get the system files on to the tab using ADB or a way to copy entire directory on to the tab using the ADB.
Got the system to boot to FTM but when I try to flash it the software fails and gives a error "Failed to Get aprmg x x x " some thing like that if there's a way to skip this I'll be able to get my tab back to working condition.

I got an HTC Explorer around a month ago and quickly found out how useless it was with the miniscule amount internal storage HTC decided to provide me with. So I quickly found jaggyjags' rooting tutorial found here: http:[url]....
All went well and I was happy with the phone, until some of the apps started bloating and I went a little too far with link2sd and tried to convert the com.htc app into a user app, which ended disastrously. Pretty much every process failed or had an error, so I tried restarting the phone and found myself in a boot-loop.
I then succesfully got into HBOOT and then into recovery. So I decided to try installing jaggyjags' custom ROM. After taking out my SD card to connect to my computer and copy jaggyjags' rom to, I got back into HBOOT, but could not get into recovery anymore. All the phone did was get stuck on the HTC screen.
After leaving it on the screen to see if it would eventually make it to recovery, I discovered that the phone is now dead and won't even charge. I'm not sure if it's because the battery might be dead or some other reason.

Ok i recently rooted my LG C800 or Mytouch Q using SuperOneClick which went well. However, When i tried to install a new rom using ROM Manager of the play store i first backed up my current rom and when it reboots its stuck on the boot LG logo. I have tried going into recover mode and it will show the android unboxing but a few seconds later it goes back to the LG logo. I don't want to say its completly bricked as i do get the LG logo.

Today i tried rooting my tablet using this URL>...I did everything from the instructions and first time didn't work. I tried 2nd time and it didn't work. Then I downloaded the RV27RC03_WW_GEN1 system.img, copied it in the "system_image" folder. I started rooting it for the 3rd time (because I was a fu*ktard) and when it finished it was bricked. I tried turning it on, but it wouldnt turn on, then i inserted a needle in the reset hole. It turned on, but it froze on the acer logo. When I got in the system recovery I made a factory reset.

Well I tried to create my own ROM. when the tablet boots, the back light comes on and that is all I get. When I press the on/off button the back light goes on and off. Another thing I noticed is that when I connect to the PC I can see the SD card and the External SD card mounted as MTS Device.
When I reset the tablet via the little hole on the top (next to the sound buttons) it just seems to switch off and then on again. I tried to switch the device off and try resetting (holding ON button + Volume UP + Volume DOWN) to get to CWM but I can't get into CWM. The back light just comes on.
I also tried to see if I could access the device via the ADB shell, but there is no device found. Which is weird as why does Windows see the device. I am not sure how to proceed. I also noticed that Windows (In device manager) sees the device as a Ramos W30HD and has an exclamation mark next to it?

So I made the mistake of attempting to root my new HTC one V without knowing what I was doing. I currently can't get past the bootloader screen. I've attempted installing the RUU for my phone with no success. I've resorted to extracting the rom.zip from the RUU, renaming it PK76IMG.zip (required for hboot to recognize it) and putting it on my sd card. Everything works fine up until the end when it says "hboot version is older! Update failed"

I got my Dad's old Motorola Fire XT530 recently. The thing is, he used the phone for around 2 weeks and then switched to a BlackBerry. He kept the phone switched off and locked up in his office bag. I fished it out yesterday and tried to switch it on, but it wouldn't even switch on. I connected it to the wall outlet and left out there for a while. The screen never turned on, but the lights on the soft keys below the screen did light up, so I assumed that it must be charging.
Anyway, after a while, I removed it from the outlet and switched it on, but it wouldn't boot up at all. Then I tried getting it into recovery and download mode, but it just wouldn't turn on at all. The device wasn't rooted, and I don't know what could have gone wrong that would make it like this.
I want to start developing for this device, seeing as there isn't even a decent ROM for this. I don't want to send it to the Motorola service centre; I have issues with them as it is.

I've bricked my cell last night by flashing wrong kernel.Now, it does not turn on, no orange light on charging, no recovery mode.I've read HTC UNBRICK Project threads for other phones. But, i think i cant use those device-specific files for my phone.When i connect my cell to PC it shows QHSUSB_DLOAD in device manager.i am almost clear about the rest of the recovery procedure and instructions, i am just not sure about those device-specific files.

I recently noticed my Incredible 2 was only showing the battery life to be 50% after charging it overnight. I switched AC chargers and the problem continued. So I figured the battery was done, for whatever reason, and I ordered a replacement battery from Verizon directly. The replacement battery also only charged to 50% after a full night's charge. So...it's probably an issue with the phone itself. I have Total Equipment Coverage but getting a new phone's a hassle and I like my Incredible 2 (not guaranteed to get another I imagine). I figure it might be the phone's "charging circuitry"...is that easily repairable? I need to have a fully-charging phone in a week or so...

I bricked my alcatel by deleting a folder which apparently was vital for android. Is there any way to unbrick it without paying a visit to alcatel's service? I need PWM or TWRP to flash it with the stock rom, right? Unfortunately I hadn't installed either, so is there any other way to flash the stock rom now?

When I was rebooting my phone after installing the pure Google ROM it said this was not a authorized software by Verizon. So I downloaded A stock ROM and tried to install that with odin and it would stop startling after two seconds.

So I inherited this wonderful phone not knowing anything about it. Basically I wanted to put ICS on it but I can't...
- Computers do not detect it via USB when plugged in now (it did before). It does charge perfectly though so it's not a connection issue
- Can connect to KIES via Wi-Fi
- Download mode gets stuck. It just says Downloading... and stays there
The phone was originally Bell Canada but it's unlocked and works with my Rogers SIM.
It's currently running Android Version 2.3.3 on Baseband I9100MUGKG2
Kernel Version 2.6.35.7-I9100MUGKG2-CL371789 dh130.yoo@SEP-48 #2
Build Number GINGERBREAD.UGKG2
*#1234*
PDA: I9100MUGKG2
PHONE: I91000MUGK2
CSC: I9100MBMCKG2
BUILD INFO: TUE JUL 12 10:19:43 KST 2011
The phone actually runs fine and all the regular cellular services work just fine. I just can update it to ICS or connect it to a computer USB (to transfer files etc. or do whatever).What can I do to correct this? Or is this thing stuck on this OS version and the way it is forever?

I have the D-800 AT&T LG G2, It was rooted with KitKat 4.4.2. After I rooted my phone, I tried several different ways to install TWRP onto it. I tried FreeGee, adb shell, and straight from TWRP App, nothing worked, because when I tried to boot into TWRP it would just come up with the LG Logo and "Secure Boot Error" and "Certification Error" or something like that, then be a blank screen. I then just held the power button to turn it off, and it would turn back on and run fine, no problem. I figured it never installed right, and so I left TWRP alone. I know you are not supposed to take an OTA after install TWRP, but thinking TWRP never installed on the phone, I took the OTA, and now it will do the "Error" messages and blank screen, but my power off, power on trick doesn't work anymore. I can boot into Recovery Mode, but when I do a Factory Reset, the screen just goes blank. I have tried to put it into Download Mode by pressing Volume Up + Power when hooked up to a PC, but nothing happens. I feel as though its a tough brick.

I just got an "Engineering Prototype" of a phone that looks like a Cliq XT.
It worked fine when I got it - as far as I can tell, it had a stock 1.5 installed - no Motoblur-Rom.The guy that owned it before didn't delete all of his personal stuff so i decided to do a factory reset. Turned out to be a bad idea
When I try to turn on the phone I can see a Motorola-Logo for about 1/10th of a second. After that the screen turns black (it doesn't turn off, the backlight is still on).Pressing the Camera-Button whil turning it on leads me to a little menu:
- Volume up -> "USB Flash Mode" (That seems to work)
- Volume down -> "Recovery Mode" (That does not seem to work since the screen goes black when I try that)
I installed the USB-Drivers provided by Motorola and tried to connect to the phone via RSDlite - nothing seems to work
I managed to root/unlock several devices and installed custom recoverys and custom roms to several of my phones. I don't know that much about the stuff that makes Android going. That means that I can click buttons if i have a red arrow pointing at them...

Basically I ran Livesuit to flash my Chinese Tab, its called a desiretab has an a10 processor. Anyways the first flash was successful, besides the fact that it didn't pick up touch calibration correctly. So, I decided to flash it again with a different firmware image, low and behold it gets about 50% in and just freezes up. Now the Tablet shows no form of screen output, I attempt to flash it repeatedly, nothing works.
When I say I attempt to re flash it and nothing works, I'm saying that it just sticks at zero and the flash command does nothing.
