I restarted my phone earlier as it was slow and the volume keys were not working and now the phone gets stuck at bootloader. It doesnt respond to both the power button and the volume buttons. Anyone have any idea on how to fix it?
Thanks

Can you get into recovery?

Hello,
I recently got a brand new DHD from T Mobile UK. Naturally, I wanted to get rid of the bloatware that came with it. To cut the long story short, I tried to install the cyanogenmod software and ended up bricking my phone. At first it would not get past the cyanogenmod start up screen (spinning smoke thing). Now it will not boot past the T Mobile logo.
I am desperate and any solution to give me back ANY funstionality of the phone would e great.
Kind Regards.

Can you get into the bootloader? Try turning it off, then holding the power button and volume down - I think the easiest method is to hold volume down, press the power button for a few seconds (still holding volume), then let the power button go and after that the volume button. Seems to get me into the bootloader reliably.
If you can get into the bootloader, you should be able to flash back to the stock rom by placing a file on the SD card - not certain of the exact method there but someone will know
I wouldn't worry too much unless you were flashing the bootloader (hboot) to get s-off - as I understand it, the only real way to brick these devices is if you corrupt the bootloader.
What exactly did you do? I agree with the previous poster that you probably did not brick your phone you just need to get into the bootloader and flash a backup, if you made one. Also what ClockworkMod Recovery are you using. I know that if you flashed with 3.xxx you will need to flash an older version of CWM something like 2.xxx
If you give us more info we could prob help more

If you have cwm / rom manager install to your phone just turn off your phone and charge it now you are in recovery state you can flash rom again or restore backups
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
so i will start with the main problem of the phone
the down volume is not working.
so i rooted the phone,flash recovery,and flashed rootbox rom
but the rom isnt going up and stuck on the animation screen
but now i cant go inside the recovery since if want to do it via the toolbox so i need the phone to be on,
and i cant do it the normal way- down+power because the down volume isnt working
its really important please help??
Help someone???
It's really important
I believe you have two solutions, to fix the volume key or to buy a jig. As I don't believe there is another way to boot into any of the helpful modes (recovery, bootloader, odin) without adb, a working OS, or the volume key(s).
hello guys and gals,
i have a little problem. my s2 power button recently broke, and after an unsuccessful attempt on fixing the matter, the company provided me with a simple work around solution which is to software remap the power button to one of the volume buttons.
but here comes the problem, me being careless, upon receiving the phone, i was too anxious and proceed to upgrade to stock jellybean 4.1.2. thus wiping the software remap. so i am stuck with a phone with no power button, unrooted and dont know what to do.
i did ODIN clockwork recovery mod on the phone but since i dont have a power button, i was unable to boot into recovery to install superuser and root the phone. the plan was to root the phone and install one of the roms and ask the developers on how to remap the keys in the rom.
also i am wondering if it is possible to ODIN a custom rom with UVLE1 radio in it so i can unlock it via http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024514
but it seems like i have it backwards, in order to install custom rom and i would need to get my device rooted first.
i am stuck in a pickle that i have created for my self. so any ideas and suggestions would help. thanks guys and gals!

hello guys. i have this problem here. so my phone recently got the new ota update to a13 which i thought was cool and all. i noticed today i cannot get into fastboot using adb. the vol- and power button combo is also not working in switched off state. anyone know of a fix?
thing is that the phone kinda gets into bootloader and then starts into rui in a second. i cant access the bootloader menu anyhow
I have tried this in multiple computers, including a linux system but no luck
vol- and power is for recovery and vol+ an power is not working for me.
