restart your phone, when an "android" logo appear, press back button multiple times, the recovery menu will come out

[Q] Help!!! Cannot Boot Slide

I rooted my slide months ago and have been installing new roms regularly using Rom manager and manually by booting into recovery.
I just downloaded and installed cyanogens new 6.1.1 release and when I booted the phone I get the usual request for me to allow Google's locations services and I click ok. Then I get touch the android to begin screen and when I touch the android, nothing happens. I did this over and over. just stuck.
So I just figured I would restore my back up via nandroid... I tried to reboot into recovery and pressed Vol down and pwr. I am only getting the choices of
Fastboot
Recovery
Clear Storage
Simlock
I select recovery and I get a triangle with an exclamation point.
And now I am stuck What happened?? More importantly, What do I do to fix this??
Please help ASAP I am very nervous!!
When you go into recovery, aren't you supposed to then hit Vol Up and Power and then wait a bit?
When I prees up then power it just boots into the "touch android to begin " screen that does not work

when you get the exclamation triangle you press vol up + power and then select apply update.zip, then you can restore your nandroid... your only problem here seems to be a bad flash, just wipe and reflash cm6 or restore the nandroid... obviously you are doing something wrong when trying to go into clockwork recovery so dont panic and do it as you did when you flashed the rom man
God Bless you. It's Fixed and restored!!!!! Thanks a ton!!!!

You will have to install a new sbf...
For that you need to go to bootloader (Power+volume UP)
Install RSD Lite and flash the new sbf!
It may fix it..
EDIT!!
Try Power and Volum Down and if you see an android with a yeallow triangle, Press the buttons as mentioned in the post below and you'll go to stock recovery.
Try volume up and down really fast. Not touching bottom corner. I don't even have my Defy yet but I'm sure I read this!
Sent from my Blade using XDA Premium App
fast response, ill try that im not sure if it replaces the boot screen tho thats the problem on my phone i tried to installa dif one but im flashing the 2.2 sbf tho
yay thanks so much i reflashed it and it works fine, but if anyone could help me get my recovery menu back i would greatly appreciate it so i can install roms
you'll have to root and reinstall recovery again

Your welcome
To get CWM recovery back you'll need to root. (use SuperOneClick)
Then Install Sd recovery (hhttp://tinyurl.com/3dbqefx)
Install recovery and done!

the above means u have entered bootloader...this is useful when u r flashing an sbf..
power on the phone with vol down button..u will enter stock recovery,,now press vol+ and vol- at the same time..here u have to clear cache and all.and reboot..
if u r still stuck at M logo then reflash an 2.2 sbf and then install CM7..
for more info follow FAQ for CM7 quarx
All the best
"on the phone with vol down button..u will enter stock recovery," I can't enter this, Either i'm not able to , or if it has something todo with phone , i dont' know. ;\
remove the battery and reinsert it..
and while powering on the fone, hold the vol down button...(hold the vol down button and then press power button)

Hi,
I think you should read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1065798 and check that you have the right version of bootmenu.
Answer n°5 may help you to start over again.
I have been through this a few days ago, it is quite easy but there is a lot of reading.
The most important thing is to read everything so you can understand what you do.
thx for the quick answer i have try step five but when i do that it bring me to a black screen with a white triangle and a ! in it. i really dont know what else to do
hit both volume buttons at same time it will make a menu visable then choose factory reset
also cm7 flashes a new bootloader so you might have to flash reboot into recovery for cm7 then install again
holding both volume button and the power one does not work it bring me to cyanogene boot loop
You have to press them when you are in the stock recovery menu.
but i cant go in the stock recovery menu or i dont know how cause pressing the down buton i still go to the boot loop and if i do power plus down button i get to a triangle with a ! inside it
To enter stock recover do:
Shutdown phone
Start phone by pressing power + volume down (hold both keys for a few seconds)
Once the android with the exclamation mark is displayed push volume up and down at the same time.
Then you're in stock recovery.
that's great man thx, and what to do once im in there?
wipe data and factory reset
it tell me 4 thing
reboot system( do nothing)
apply sd card :update.zip (saying there is nothing like that on my sd)
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
i would like to know what to do from this point on cause i got nothing now in my phone
i did the wipe data and factory reset now when i start my phone it stay on the M logo
now reflash cm7
alright i did flash but i put back 2.2.1 in it i wont play with that anymore lol thx
your welcome

[Q] Xperia NeoL wont boot

Xperia Neo L has same hardware as Xperia Play. That is the reason I am posting this thread...
I have managed to brick my phone very well.. it won't show bootload logo itself..
I was in a JB custum Rom with Kernel..
First phone was not going into fastboot mode.Even when I press vol down button its taking to flashmode(green button)
So I flashed stock firmware with its kernel.. now also it was not taking me to fastboot.. so I did "adb reboot bootloader" phone booted into fastboot
then I flashed a JB kernel... then its gone... no lights turn on.. not even bootloader logo is shown....does any one has solution... or I better take it to sony for fix... pls help
Working
Its Seus who helped... I managed to flash stock now working fine...
first i'm sorry to hear that
umm.. as i know to enter fastboot mode you should press search button (not volume down button)
from your story its probably out of batery, so may be you can charge it a while or try it with another batery
btw have you try to reflash it with stock ftf??
