Hey everyone,
I have the same issue. Followed the Full Guide from the cyanogenmod wiki and just after the "fastboot reboot" step (that worked according to the output on the command line) the phone is pretty much "unreactive". black screen, and only vibrates shortly when i press the the power button. pressing the volume buttons (right after the reboot too) doesnt do anything.
any ideas how i can either get into the ClockworkMod or get back to a "normal" state? guess last option wont be easy as i already successfully fastbooted the boot.img thing.
help is very much appreciated!

Hi,
I am a noob to Android have been WM for many years. Anyway I tried to flash a new radio to my T-Mobile Hero, now its stuck on a picture of a box with a arrow pointing towards a phone. Its been like this for one hour now. I tried flashing using fastboot recovery from the sd card. I thought I had rooted the Hero but am not sure if it completed correctly. What can I do to get it powering up again?
When I press the power and back button just that picture appears for ten seconds and then the handset seems to turn off. No lights, nothing I have to remove the battery and then when I press anything the same picture appears.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Hi,
try to get into recovery and reflash the radio
turn your phone off.
press Home+Power on and hold Home pressed.
Your phone should now go into recovery.
You should consider to install a more advanced recovery.
Here is a nice one.

Hello guys,
I got a problem. when i enter the recovery mode(the green font) i cannot use my volume up and down to change option i want to choose. can anybody here help me on this? thanks in advance.
You can use the touchpad to make choices, it's usually not too responsive but it gets the job done.
First, what recovery are you using? If its ClockworkMod you should be able to.
Hahaha.. This reminded me the time I rooted my phone. I used the r5 guide here in xda in rooting my desire, and after step2, on the recovery menu, I couldnt use the volume keys to scroll up and down the menu. At this point I thought my phone got bricked! and I had to repeat step2 again.. Only later did I realise you have to use the optical joystick...
That was a scary 5-10 minutes for me..

Click to expand...

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!
Hi guys,
I don't really get answers from the RecoverX thread, so I will try to hear if any Xperia S users might have an advice for my problem.
I'm using RecoverX on my Xperia S. I really needed this, it's great being able to manage phone without connecting to PC every time and flashing from command prompt. My install of Recoverx and the first flashing of af ROM from SD-card worked great. I flashed MIUI:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1793432
Now I just can't enter recovery. For the first part I can't really find instructions on how to. I'm trying first to hold power and up until battery is "disconnected". Than I tried to reboot and hit different combinations: volume up, volume down, continously, repeatedly, I tried tapping the screen (like the first time, when it worked), hitting back and menu keys. No success.
Can you tell me what I should do? Install Recoverx again? That can't be necessary, can it?
Sorry if I'm asking an obvious question, but I tried search and read through recoverx thread and I can't find a solution.
Thanks a lot for your help in advanced.

Just restart your phone and then tap the screen a few times gets you into recovery normally,
Is it possible that the install of Miui has wiped the recovery?
Just reinstall it again and then try it.
so heres the deal, i flashed couple times already my DHD.
today i wanted to try CM7 after installing rom, it gets stuck on white bootscreen HTC.
I wanna go to recovery but volume button is broken.
I want to get into recovery
anyone knows how to solve it, or is my DHD screwed? :/
adb reboot recovery. Also, if you are S-On and getting stuck on the splash screen, read my signature.
See here for disassembly of DHD http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfatoeWbMRk , you can pick-up new volume down button and maybe the switch on ebay and make your own mind up if its possible for you to do it yourself.
thanks willread all those topics.
