Hi,
after installing cm7.1.0-RC1.5 and rebooting, I see Google (logo) on my display but nothing happens (waited for more than 20 minutes). The power switch does not work and I am also not able to access the boot menu by pressing the volume button. If I remove the battery and insert it again, I immediately see the Google logo again - as before I am not able to interact with the phone. Please I need help - hope I haven't ruined it.
Thank you
put off your battery, then charge your defy without battery.. after battery logo with question mark come out, put again your battery.. unplug your charger and you should able to access bootloader or motorola recovery... cmiiww
Thanks for helping, but this does not work. After seeing the battery on display and inserting it, it still hangs only showing the Google logo. I am not able to enter the recovery menu.

Hello, spec's!
I have following problem since august 2010:
After ordinyry ROM (not original) upgrade have usising phone several days, then switching off phone on night, on morning trying switch it on in vain. I've trying recharge akku through cable connected to phone, it charges half of minute then phone swithes on by self(seems like power button abridget but I've checked it with tester), starting showing T-Mobile logo "Stick together" then shows Windows logo then backlight fading then device restarts, so it happen infinite till battery fully goes empty. After that I've bought new battery with independent charger. I've recharging battery with external charger, after complete I placed battery in phone so same scenario with infinite restarting was happen.
Now on phone is installed original ROM and I can't install any other- in bootloader I can install only SPL's, but other ROM's not installs (flashing process freezes on 0%), also hard reset could not completes too- after loading phone in hard reset mode I push "volume up" but nothing hapens.
I haven't any ideas, somebody can help me? Thank you all.
morning guys/gals,
last night i put my phone to charge, woke up this morning and turned on the screen and it said "no sim card detected, reboot device". Now when I rebooted the device all I get is 5 vibrates and the green led light stays on. Screen stays blank!!. I tried battery pull several times, tried vol-down + power but all I get is the vibration with the screen off and the led on.
When I hook my phone to the laptop I can't access it via fastboot/adb, it shows up as "Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM" with a yellow exclamation mark in the device manager. I tried forcing different drivers on it (e.g. adb composite, bootloader) but none let me access the device via cmd.
Now I got clockwork, running latest android revolution 2.0.8, device is radio-soff and eng-soff.
What am I to do now? Is there possibly a hardware fault? If I cant get to access to the device to restore it to stock, I'm going to struggle to get the device replaced, isnt it?
any help is very much appreciated!!!
What ROM were you running on it Prior to this happening?
was there any apps running in the background?
the Vol - + Power should get you into bootloader, if you cant get into bootloader I would be tempted to say fooked, and take it back to the shop as they wont be able to boot it either,, but thats the defeatist attitude...

ok very strange, I was playing i around with the phone, now if I pull the battery and connect it to the usb cable the light went red instead of green and it automatically booted in clockworkmod (thanks to the "bug"). vol down + power didnt get me there so once I was in clockwork I thought let me wipe battery stats (eventho I wiped them when rom was freshly installed). I thought the device is unplugged but the green light stays on (after full charge), maybe battery issue. Now after wiping battery stats I'm able to boot the device again.
Thats weird but hey atleast my device is back on track. Either faulty battery or some software bug, either way if anyone experiences a similar issues (phone wont boot, just vibrates 5 times and green led), just pull battery, connect phone to usb cable on your laptop or wallcharge and clockwork should boot up, wipe battery stats and u should be fine
You gotta love that ClockWorkMod recovery image

Thanks for your reply! this worked for me, allmost.
I did however had to press the Power button ONCE to start the phone.
- Plugged in charger, pulled in battery, (orange light was turned), then after 25 sec I pressed the Power button - and Voila! My Phone started as normal.
I diden't need to do any "Wipe battery status", but after reading about it I did it anyway. It was'nt necessery though in my case.
THanks a lot you guys for your replys! I thought for sure my phone was dead.
try sptool to format your phone except the boot loader then try to flash the phone, if its not working then change the mother board !!!!!
SHORT INTRO: My GF's phone, I am from PH [not living in Manila] so no reliable technicians, but my Gf brought it to one, the technician flashed it but I think it was fake or something becase it says Android 4.0, but exactly looks like Android 2.3, AND the phone keeps searching for network even if sim card is inserted. so I checked it myself.
I am frustrated and spent hours trying to fix this phone. AND I DONT GET IT!! WHY??
1.) I thought usb port is broken, but it was fine, i left the phone with charger connected for how many minutes, then it went on showing the battery charging animation.
2.) so i tried to boot, I SPENT HOW MANY MINUTES and TIMES PRESSING THE POWER BUTTON and it won't boot, I SMASHED THE POWER BUTTON [not hard tho], DISASSEMBLED AND CHECKED THE BUTTON, THEN TRIED AGAIN, THE SAME THING, but then IT WENT ON AFTER A FEW SECONDS, THEN I TURNED IT OFF[to prepare for installation of stock rom], THEN IT WONT BOOT, SOMETIMES WILL BOOT AFTER HOW MANY SECONDS OR MINUTES BUT WTF IS THIS. <<sorry :crying:
3.) i tried RECOVERY[stock] AND DOWNLOAD, it went into recovery mode ONCE, i tried wiping it all, "reboot system now" AND IT DIDN'T BOOT, IT WENT OFF, SO I AM BACK AGAIN TO NUMBER 2 PROBLEM. THEN IT WENT INTO DOWNLOAD MODE, but ODIN won't detect, I downloaded samsung usb drivers, the cable is from samsung, accessed the device manager[windows 10] and no device.
WHAT I TRIED/SEARCHED[NO LUCK THUGH]:
1.) turning it on without the use of power button [usb cable to computer, pressing volume up & down]
2.) turning it on with charger then removing battery quickly and reinserting it.
3.) i think everything, i've been searching all over the internet and here, no solution.
PLEASE! I need help. We've been planning to buy Galaxy S5 but we don't want this phone go into waste. This phone is over a year old. Is it because of the ROM? I really tried to boot into recovery but I don't understand problem number 2. PLEASE HELP! I'M DESPERATE :crying:
***SOLVED***
I ended up taking the SIM card out, opening the phone and detaching the battery. The phone came back to life when the battery was re-attached. Its in sorry shape for other reasons, but alive enough to get data that was not auto backed-up.
-----------------------------------------
I recently used the volume button + power combo to get to the reboot screen of a fire phone. This phone had TWRP installed. I was trying various methods of getting the phone to stop booting in "Safe Mode".
Note that I rebooted from Fire's recovery, not the TWRP recovery. No software was installed or removed before the reboot. I was only looking for ways of escaping "Safe Mode".
I chose "reboot" in the volume+power combo screen and the screen went black. Since then, I have been unable to boot -- I can't get the amazon logo or any sort of vibration. There is no charging logo when I insert a USB cord.
What can I do to reset or reboot this phone? Naturally, I've tried holding down the power button for long periods of time.
I'm fine with opening it up to get at the gnomes inside if need be.

mine happened the same thing... apparently battery is in good state, there is no overheat... mine was a 9008 brick type... so is dificult to relive...
Hi everybody, yesterday I was playing with my old Galaxy A50 trying to install a custom rom unsuccessfully.
I repeated the procedure three times installing TWRP and then Havoc OS but every time I tried to reboot from TWRP to OS I was stuck at the warning screen saying that the phone bootloader was unlocked and booting into download mode to reflash TWRP was blocked as it showed "only official binaries can be installed" (yes I installed Samsung disabler but still).
Still I was able to get the phone into download mode and reinstall the stock firmware as it seemed to be the only way to install and boot TWRP.
But at 4th time repeating the process I got frustrated, shut down the computer and left the phone on the warning screen still connected to computer usb cable.
Then I got back and noticed the phone was off as the battery died.
Indeed the battery died, so I put the phone in charging and after it reached 100% I tried to boot into download mode again to reflash stock firmware.
But here's the strange thing, I cannot boot into download mode anymore as pressing vol up+vol down while connecting usb cable, shows the lightning charge logo for 5 secs and then reboots infinitely with the same pattern.
If I force reboot by pressing vol down+power it shows the Samsung logo with the warning below it, then skips to another screen with another warning suggesting to press power button to continue (which does nothing) and after a while reboots to samsung logo.
So it doesn't seem it is bricked, it looks more like a battery controller fault, so I tried to detach the battery flex from the board, hoping it would reset the controller but it's still the same.
Also I tried with the flex detached and still no download mode is possible.
Was the download mode somehow erased? (if it's even possible considering it's the motherboard firmware)
If you need photos, videos or even a call on zoom, Skype, webex I would be glad to show you
same i got the same problem i can't find nothing for this when i press volume up and down and put the otg cable its simply charges but it gets stuck on the logo image there's no way to fix this but the only way is to open the phone,change the emmc and put one from samsung,close the phone flash a custom rom and you are done.
If you can enter recovery, do it. As soon as your phone gets into it, select the power off variant and then try to enter the download mode.
It seems like you did not unlock the bootloader, did you?
The bootloader Is unlocked i can't enter in the recovery because the phone locks on charging logo and its fully charged but when i try without charger It doesn't start.
