Pretty sure my phone is bricked...Any ideas? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am pretty sure I bricked my phone somehow. I'm not really sure, but I think it was related to my new sd card I installed this afternoon, which makes no sense to me, but I can't think of anything else that would have caused this. I copied data from my old card to my new one and inserted the new one and my phone was having issues with mounting the new card to I did a restart and got stuck in a boot loop. Running CM6, with nothing out of the ordinary. So I figured I would restore my latest nandroid backup and everything would be ok. WRONG. I've basically gotten to the point of not being able to do anything within ClockworkMod without getting a message along these lines "can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (file exists)" and a couple different variations of the same bullcrap. Any ideas?

I am far from knowledgeable. But a brick is just that, no boot,no charge and no chance of recovery. If it boots into hboot or recovery is probably salvageable.

boot looping issue!!

out of the blue, my phone began to reboot , and turn off and reboot again.
in the forum ive found a lot of fixes but nothing that helps me!
when im trying to go to recovery it goes to the white screen and loops again,
and by the way it reads in green letters pc36100img no found.
help please!!!
thanks
have u tried dropping the 100 and naming it "pc36img" instead of "pc36100img"? i believe thats what it should be named. What rom were u running when this happened?
haha sorry about that
i was running cm7 nightly build 8
also ive tried putting the pc36img.zip on the sd card but nothing, it doesnt read it !!
It has to be all caps as in PC36IMG.zip, and then boot into the boot loader.
im sorry im an idiot, yeah i put the PC36IMG (all caps)on the sd card, it updates but same problem, i even pulled out the battery to brick it! but dammit the same problem!! urgh!!

You're not the first person I've seen that happen to recently on certain nightlies. Unfortunately, in all of the other cases I saw, they weren't able to recovery. RUU didn't work, PC36IMG didn't work, formatting the sd card didn't work, it just looped at the splash screen every time. PC36IMG flashes even appeared to be successful, but it would never get past the looping splash screen. I'm not sure if anyone ever came up with a fix, but when I was following the thread, one dude threw the phone out the window of his car and told sprint he lost it. The other guy went through insurance and shelled out the $100 to get a new replacement. I hope you have better luck. I would try flashing PC36IMG again, or setting hte phone in fastboot mode, and running an RUU. If that doesn't work, I don't think there is too much else to try, that I'm aware of at least. Here is a link to all of the RUU's and PC36IMG's. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884060&highlight=hboot-0.97+ruu
Yeah cm7 seems to do that to some peoples phones, including mine. I found no solution, as far as I could tell ur only option is a new phone.

I just saw this in here for the first time today, but I am seeing it alot!!!
Just glad I went back to sense a few weeks ago....

I am dumb

I have been rooted for awhile via unrevoked, but my microphone went out a week ago, so I had to get a new evo. I went to root again but I must of done something wrong because every time I go into hboot it tells me I have to update, and then says cannot roll back hboot. It DOES say S-OFF at the top of hboot. Every time I update though hboot it resets the entire phone and I have to redo everything. I am frustrated currently because I'm not sure what to do next. Any and all help is appreciated.
Thanks
hah funny problem. the 'update' is a pc36img.zip on your sdcard. it will be on the root (that means not in any folders) of your sdcard. just delete it and you'll be fine. every time you 'update', it replaces the flash memory on your phone with the contents of the pc36img.zip (except for the protected bootloader in this case) so that's why you lose all of your stuff. it's probably a leftover from unrooting. just get rid of that, maybe reflash your recovery, and flash a rom!
just ask if you have any other questions.

Wow, now I feel really dumb lol. Thanks, I am about to try again, I still am eager to get CM7 Final!

[Q] Any way to fix this? (stuck in bootloader screen)

Was messing around with Kernel Manager Lite and tried to flash some kernel that looked interesting (didn't do any research or anything to see if it was compatible like the giant noob I am) but it said something about not having enough space and to reboot after I had more. I went and moved some apps to my SD card, rebooted, and now I'm stuck in that bootloader screen (fastboot, recovery, etc.). Phone isn't recognized by my computer.
Any way my idiotic self can fix this? Or am I screwed?
Running RC 4 of CyanogenMod.
Can you boot into recovery? If so, do you have any ROMs saved on your SD card? or possibly a nandroid of your current (pre-kernel testing) rom?

do you have a micro sd card reader that your card can be inserted into so that it can be read from your computer without being in your phone?

If your bootloader still shows Ship S off, then try reflashing your recovery. I'm not sure whiich one you're used to using, but I'm going to attatch a PC36IMG of amon ra v2.3. Put the file on the main directory of your sd card, then boot to your bootloader. WHen it asks you to update, say yes. Once it finishes, you should then have recovery back and be able to start fresh with a new rom. BTW, if you were using clockwork before, do not attempt to restore any backups made with clockwork while you're using amon ra. It'll break a lot of stuff most likely.
If you're bootloader for whatever reason shows Ship S on, then I would run an RUU and flash back to stock, then start again.
But if his phone isn't recognized by his computer, and he doesn't have a micro sd card converter for his computer...he can't exactly put that pc36img on his card...

Well, you're right. I guess I forget that every one might not have one. I have like 5 laying around here for some reason, haha. They're everywhere. If he had another phone with an sd card slot, he could swap the card into that other phone for a sec to move the file.
And sorry if I missed it, but does fastboot recognize the device?
TO the OP:
Edit: do you see anything in your device manager when you select 'hboot' usb from the bootloader screen?
Ah, we're good, booting into a ROM now. Thankfully I just got a card reader a couple days before this happened!
Thank you all for the help! Would have been stuck like this if it hadn't been for you guys.
I too have a few laying around, mostly from old phones (using one from my old samsung instinct as we speak lol), but from what he said, his phone isn't reconized at all by his computer.
You're welcome, even though, it was probably k2buckley's advice that fixed you.

One last thing, I can restore my apps right?

as long as you backed them up with Titanium backup...which backs them up to your SD card, you should be able to restore them...if you haven't done that...nor have you made a recent nandroid backup, then you'll have to re-download those apps...
I'm having the exact same problem sorta. I got careless and deleted all my old recovery backups but one and I got what I deserved when I rebooted. The rom i was using didn't flash and now when i select recovery from bootloader screen it just kicks me right back to start. I've got titanium bu for my apps, but wtf cares if I can get back going again. This is first time i've really got in problem. I've always used clockworkmod as recovery because it was easy and in rom manager when I started. Ok so I can put pc36img on my sd card and then reboot correct? I have more than one sd card, so any tips for best way to go about this like that file and anything else? And where is best place to get a zip file that is best to use? Rooted with unrevoked, clockworkmod and 0003 is phone model. I've got a blank 8g card, 16 and 32 both have stuff on them. Music, rom zips etc.....any help would be greatly appreciated i'm in deep water and just learned how to swim lol.
Put the file pc36img.zip on the root of your sd card...reboot into bootloader...when it asks if you'd like to update, say yes...this will flash amon_ra recovery.
Then flash a new rom.
Id suggest using amon_ra, as I've never had a problem with it...not to bash on clockwork, but I see more people have problems clockwork not functioning correctly...
It's nice to use with rom manager, but convenience can come at a cost...

Yeah I can tell that almost all the advanced guys use that. I been meaning to switch anyways just kinda like cleaning the gutters on your house. Easy to put off until it causes problem. I been using clockwordmod simply cause that was most simple fix when I first rooted cpl months ago. Now that i've flashed several roms and kernals etc i feel comfortable with trying. This is only time i've been like uh oh wtf do i do now? Lol you would think that doing a backup and making sure they are secure would not be such secret! I mean i've only been warned 1000 times yall really meant that huh....lesson learned and no more short cuts i swear if i can just get out this jam. thanks.....gonna go download rename and put it on sd card.

And from what it looks like, you shouldn't have to rename the file that buck put up in the first page...
Just put that file, as is, on that root of your sd card...boot into the bootloader (not recovery) and follow the on screen prompts to update from that file

[Q] A little assistance would be appreciated!

Hey all! So, a couple weeks back, I flashed a BETA ICS ROM onto my Inspire (Desire HD). Being my normal ignorant, and noob-like self, I completely ignored the fact that the thread said "DEVS ONLY!"
Well, flash forward a couple of weeks, and my Inspire is all but bricked. The ROM did not have mobile data yet, did not have a connection to the micro-SD card, and it was not touchscreen ready yet. I have tried ADB, but to no-avail, my file system knowledge and overall lack of knowledge put me quite a predicament.
I have flashed many ROMs before, but I sincerely messed up big time on this try. So, would any of you be able to help me find a cure for this important issue? Is the fix really simple and easy, and I am just a bonehead?
Thanks!
Not sure what your issue is. You never clearly stated. Does the phone not boot? Stuck in the splash screen? you want to flash a new rom?

Oops, sorry! My problem is that my phone is stuck on the developer ROM, and I would like to fix it somehow. So, yes, I would like to get another ROM, but I have to remove this one first. The phone itself works great, but with no wi-fi, mobile data, and no touchscreen support, it is hard to live with.
Your nowhere near bricked. Going to ask the basics. Did you make a backup before hand? Did you have another rom on your SD card.?
If you answered yes to either then simply boot into recovery and flash the rom/ backup. You mentioned flashing roms before so I left out the steps.
If you answered no then you have two options. You can mount the SD card from within cwr. So download a rom on your PC. Mount the sd card, then flash away. Or take out SD card and use an adapter/other phone to transfer a new rom.
I was not smart enough to back up onto a computer, but I did back up onto the SD card. The only problem with this is that the ROM, and my computer, will not recognize that there is in fact an SD card inserted into the phone. So, in other words, it's like not having an SD card at all.
CWR will still read the sd card. Trust me. boot into CWR and restore your backup. And you be good as gold
Thanks! But, what exactly does CWR stand for? Haha, I'm not the most knowledgeable on the topic of Android, but is it like Clock Work Mod?

yeah. CWR stands clockworkmod recovery
Okay, in that case, I'm not sure. All of my old files (CM7, CWM, etc.) were on the SD card, and it is unreachable. I have tried to boot into CWR, but it just gives me a black screen. I feel like this thing is just unable to be fixed!
its fixable. just the black screen in CWR is an obstacle. worst case is you have flash an ruu and start over with the whole rooting. i remember reading about the black screen in CWR give me a few minutes to find them to see what to do next
Okay! Thanks a bunch!
Pull the battery and put back in
Press and hold vol-down
Press power and bootloader will start
Select recovery using vol keys and press power
If you have a backup (you really should, and and if you don't consider this experience a learning one), restore it by selecting the backup / restore option
If no backup, goto mounts and select as storage, plug usb into pc and copy your favorite Rom over, then select back and flash from zip, select the zip and you should all be back up
But please, please I'm all for people learning and experimenting, but might be worth reading some of the basics guides and notes on roms before flashing the next one. Oh, and if I forgot to mention.... Do a backup before flashing ANYTHING saves heartache later, the enjoy

ok i couldn't find the specific thread i was looking for. i remember it being stickied but couldnt find it. did find something that might be usefull but it depends on if you have access to an sd card adapter or other phone to transfer the file needed to reflash CWR. If not i would suggest trying to see if flashing an ruu to help.
edit- I'm confused now. thought you said that when you boot into recovery all you get is a black screen?

Can not boot into recovery after rom manager updated my CM9

Hello, Wondering if anyone here could help out. I recently went from MIUI US ICS rom to CM9 and love the latest build of CM9. I had not tried a backup of the rom after flashing to CM9, but noticed that Rom Manager updated at play.google.com and then I decided maybe I should make a backup of CM9 sine it was shaping up pretty nicely as I've been setting up apps,etc.
Well, I can't get into recovery. I can boot into the bootloader and it shows Revolutionary as the boot loader and I can get into Fastboot but if I toggle down to recovery and press the power button it just jumps back to the bootlloader screen. I can't get past this.
I'm tempted to put a different recovery on here now as the rom manager didn't work out even though it came stock on my CM9.
But before I risk bricking my phone, I was hoping someone here could back me up a bit and give me some input. I really don't know that much about this.. I can root phones, install recoveries, etc., but if something goes wrong I'm not knowledgeable enough to actually understand what went wrong and how to fix. I am guessing that recovery is not actually installed here and that Revolutaionary (what I used long ago to get root) wasn't planned to be the boot here.
Help please anyone!!!!!

It's been a while since I've done someting like that. By this you mean place a recovery package on the zip card, press the power button at the bootloader, then let the phone install the recovery when it runs thru the fastboot screen?
If yes, great, I remember that, but which recovery should I download? And what about rom manager on CM9? Does it care which recovery is installed?
I appreciate the knowledge here. IT sure is appreciated when things go wrong for folks like myself!
Oh, I should point out that I can stil boot into the phone and use it. The whole issue is limited to getting into recovery to create and/or restore backups of the rom.

1st off, I should shun you for being corrupt with CWM, but I'll help ya out.
Use the search bar and type in "Smelkus recovery" find a themed recovery zip you like and rename it "PC36IMG.zip" and place on the root of your SD card (in no folders) boot to boot loader and let it search, press volume up to update recovery and boom! You have new, better recovery.
As for flashing CM9, check out Jmzs CM9 nightlies. Its better and (supposedly) almost has Wimax working. Once you flash an Amon Ra based recovery, CWM becomes basically useless. So ditch it for the good of everyone. ENJOY

Well can I pick your brain once more? I decided to update my wifes phone from MIUI to CM9. She happened to have Clockwork recovery 5.0.2.2. on the phone which I recall was put there by whatever rooting routine I used. Before installing CM9, I tried to update the recovery with Smelkus from the clockwork recovery 5.0.2.2 that's on the phone to smelkus, but when I try to flash it, the smelkus recovery just sits there "parsing" so when I bail out and go back to check, the clockwork version recovery is still there.
This phone was rooted with Revolutionary but I notice that S-ON is still active. I read that S-OFF is not necessary to install a recovery --- at least not the clockwork version that is on this phone. I'm not sure if that's causing the problem or not. Any advice?

d-b-s,
That would be fantastic if you had a clue on the SD card. I did try a FastBoot string that reset it once the first time and it worked, but somehow I lost it again. I think a corrupt or defective SD card started the whole problem and restarted it when I put it's data SD back in.
Do you ride a motorcycle or have a boat? If so, stop by here please www.streetglo.net and pick yourself out something. I'd like to send it to you. You have helped me more than you know. I can't reciprocate with knowledge but I have other ways.. Let me know what you see you like. Thanks!!!!
Bill
P.S. Yea, I know you don't want anything for your help.. Just pick out something you can use and I'll be a better man for it. At least I think it works that way!

I really appreciate the kind gesture but I wouldn't like anything in return. Helping people with their problems and teaching them what I know is enough of a reward.
Please do me a favor and enjoy yourself. Best of wishes to you.
