Sounds like an SLCD screen. Use ROM Manager to install RA recovery.

Get rom manager from the market and use it to flash Clockworkmod. Then hit reboot into recovery and see if it works.

Thats what it sounds like clockwork isnt liking the slcd screen. If flashing the clockwork doesnt work. Install RA recovery that should work.

yes it is his work and it works great!
Okay, so a friend asks me to fix her Dinc... here's the story.
When I first got the dinc, it only powered up into FASTBOOT (HBOOT 0.92, Radio 2.15). The volume and power buttons don't work. She said it crashed when she FC a program to get more memory.
I tried to flash the phone using pb31img.zip on a newly formatted (fat32) sdcard. It scans the card and errors with older version.
Next I try to flash with RUU. That was successful and I can boot into the phone... in safe mode. In addition, if I shut down the phone and power up again, I get stuck in FASTBOOT and have to redo the RUU.
Okay, I figured with the phone booting into Froyo, all is not lost. I tried to use unrevoked to get root and poke around. That failed with error asking if firmware is too new.
I try to install z4root... that doesn't work either since safe mode seems to mean only default system programs work (I can install, but can't run). Probably why unrevoked failed also.
I'm starting to think it is a hardware issue since the RUU should have fixed everything.
Any ideas???
Thanks.
Go to this website and follow the steps to exit safe mode and see if that solves your problem.... let me know?

As I mentioned, none of the buttons in fastboot seems to work, so I can't reboot, just a battery pull. Interestingly, when I have the pb31img there, it scans and tells me its an older version, but then the buttons work... reboots back into fastboot.
I'm thinking of trying the revert to 2.1 and go from there... is it safe to flash over the latest Froyo RUU with 2.15 radio with the following?
RUU_IncredibleC_Verizon_WWE_1.22.605.2_Radio_1.00.03.04.06_hboot_0.79_release_161494_NoDriver_0514.exe

Can't get the fastboot to recognize any pb31img.zip file now... it only worked when I first got the dead phone. Now that I have flashed with RUU, the fastboot won't recognize the pb31img file.
I'm going to have to try to manually flash or root using adb... trying to get all the files now.

Any luck Woz?
Yes, Doug gave me a bunch of roms to flash. Nothing worked. The last step we did before I took a break was to get into recovery using adb. Then I wiped cache and data. That didn't seem to work. Flashed another rom using recovery. Nada.
I put the phone down for a few hours. Then I decided to crack it open to see if it was a refurb (cheap label makes me suspicious). Nothing unusual inside, I put it back together and powered on... the thing booted normally... everything worked.
Doug suspects it was the data/cache wipe, I don't know. I think it was the bug that got let out when I cracked it open.

You can use rom manager, just make sure you select both check boxes saying: "Wipe data & cache" and "backup current rom". When you press ok, it will reboot your device and take you to recovery. The process is automated from there, and will automatically reboot your device when the process is compete (it may take a few minutes). The device should then boot normally into CM7, and you'll be good to go.
I suggest that you get to know your recovery, it will save you one day. There are millions of tutorials and guides out there to choose from, this is a good start. And, you can always reboot to recovery by powering down the phone, then holding the volume downwhile powering the phone on, then select recovery using volume buttons and power.
I know how to access the recovery, had to because I was stuck on the booting loop.
What about the radio and the other things that I need to update?

What is your radio and hboot? Your radio should be 2.15.00.07.28 and up.
And hboot should be .92
Hboot can be found here: http://dougpiston.com/?page_id=77

Hey guys, my phone runs MIUI and Tiamat. Every time I would hold down the power button to select recovery, it would go into hboot. And if I tried going into recovery from hboot it would just go back into hboot.
I downloaded clockworkmod rom manager and tried getting into recovery from there and still no go.

Have you tried reflashing your recovery?
Sent from my PC36100 using xda app
The way they suggested to disable fastboot is for a stock system. I don't know if you can disable it that way with MIUI. I know you can't do it that way with CM7, which is similar to MIUI.
Do a battery pull, boot into bootloader, then try to go into your recovery from there.
Oh, and get rid of CWM. Flash AmonRa to your phone instead.
I encountered this today. Reflash recovery and then use rom manager to reboot into recovery.

If you are still using clockworkMOD recovery, flash an older version (5.0.2.0). I had issues with the latest version not going to recovery.

Hey guys,
thank your for all your suggestions and sorry I forgot about this thread as I solved my prob weeks ago.
I just flashed TWRP and had to continue to hold the volume up button after the logo and boot a second time into recovery.
I flashed Cyanogenmod and now everything works just fine.

Hey guys,
I was running AOKP 4.2.1 and tried to upgrade to AOKP D2TMO_JB_MR_1_build-3 using Goo Manager. I created a backup and tried flashing the new OS with GApps.
When I rebooted, I got the message that the 'Setup Wizard has crashed'. Unfortunately when I hit OK, it keeps looping and I can't get out. When I try again and reboot, I get the Google X and it is stuck there.
I can't seem to boot into TWRP to restore (tried Vol Up + Power and Vol Down + Power and Vol Up and Down + Power). Any thoughts?
It won't boot normally at all? Can you link me the rom directly that you flashed? I would assume a rom from them off their official Goo.im host would be safe, but errors can be made. If your computer recognizes your phone it can be saved.
Here is what I found http://goo.im/devs/aokp/d2tmo I wouldn't hesitate one bit to flash this, neither did 150 people, I'm curious as to what happened to your phone.

I got restored fine. Looks like the files have been deleted by Goo since the install worked as far as it was concerned. I think I will hold off on upgrading for a while.
BTW .. did AOKP stop development? Seems as if this new build was authored by someone else

Could there be an issue if the phone, according to the build prop, is a Nexus? I've always wondered what would happen if I updated a ROM through GooManager while I'm cruising as a Nexus.
If going through goo it'll try and flash a recovery for the nexus, tell you nexus Roms are compatible for you, I think that's what happens. Why not just change it back to sgh T-999? And d2tmo within the build.prop.

That's what I was wondering. So, you might as well just reboot into recovery in the first place.
