What happens if you hold down the volume button while booting your device?
will try it here....holding the volume down? pls reply asap....thanx for helping
its not really reacting with any button once it get stucked to HTC logo
yea, to boot into the bootloader.
If you hold down the "volume button down" while booting your device it must show the colored screen within a second. Just hold down the "volume down" while pressing the reset button on the back. Keep holding the "volume down" till you see the colored screen.
tell me how please...i will have to remove the battery and put it back in...then it will still charge.....anyway...the only way i can start there is to press the power button and it will start up....but it will get stuck in HTC logo....when do i start going to bootloader in there....pls help...
Have you not tried a hard reset yet?
If that still does not work the flash a new ROM - while connected via bootloader ( only way )

Remove the battery, place the battery, hold down the "volume down" button, start your device ( while still holding the "volume down" button ).
Try a hard reset first as mentioned above:
Hold down the "volume down" button + the round button on the front, then reset your device while still holding those two buttons.

Download a ROM and flash it while the device is still in that mode.

1. restart the phone (with the pen in the small red button at the pen hole)
2. immediately after you have restarted, hold down the volume down button.
3. now you should be in three color bootloadermode.
4. connect your usb cable (after that you will see USB at the white color part)
5. start your custom ruu to flash your new rom.
good luck
edit..
aaaa u solved it while i was writting
great.
To hard reset -
reset your device with the stylus the before anything appears on the screen hold down the Vol down key and the centre button - follow the instructions - but don't use the volume down option unless you want to format you internal memory too.
have you tried to reflash rom? another rom possibly?
trying to do hard reset again...and this time it applies....dont know why it's not reacting awhile ago....

Can't load Bootloader (it just restarts)

hello to everybody, i'm new here
i just wanted to unlock my universal. i read the instructions in the readme of the downloaded file from here (Source) carefully and wanted to enter the bootloader.
but after i press the power, light and reset button simultaneously like here: Image ...it just restarts (like i only press the reset key).... --> no bootloader apers
anybody knows the reason why it doesn't start the bootloader? thank u for helping
hi, welcome to forum. sometimes can be tricky. but if you hold the buttons then press reset and continue holding for a couple more seconds then it should load the bootloader. hope this helps
thank u for ur quick answer!
i'm holding power and light button simultaneously and then i push the reset button. it seems to be not working.. like it ignors that i'm pressing the other buttons...?
hi, tried with mine. if i hold the light and power and when i press reset and hold it also it enters bootloader. if this doesnt work sorry maybe a more experienced user can enlighten us.
solved the prob
power is working. reset is working. if you press the light and backlight settings come up then thats working depending on your rom. not sure what your issue is if they all work.
ok solved the problem with a trick. now everything is working. thank you for ur help!

[Q] [HELP] Gnex does NOT turn on after a normal reboot

Anyone please help me, i'm very nervous
Today my Gnex has just decided not to turn on anymore after a reboot.
Please note that it is not Flashing - related, because i've used this current rom (Xenon HD v8) for about a week or so. When the fault happened, i just rebooted my phone during a normal daily use, and right after downloading Google Maps and updating Instagram. These are the only changes i made before rebooting the device. And booooom, it stopped running out of the blue.
It does vibrate when i press and hold Power button (for a normal boot) or when i press the combination of Vol up + Vol down + Power to enter fastboot.
But that's it. After the short vibration, it stays black
It does feel warm on the back.
So, what happened to my phone?
Please explain this Sh!t, many thanks.
Maybe this can help you.

Shine a torch on the screen. If you can see anything then the backlight is gone...

[Q] A bootloop without the possibility of getting to download mode?!?

I am not a total noob. I have always done my research and I am well versed with the procedures but this has me stumped. About six months before I had installed Omega ROM (told you i wasn't a noob) and things were fine and dandy. I was running today and bam! my phone just enters into a bootloop (lost my data on endomondo too). But hey! I am an expert right? or so i think to myself and I try getting into the recovery mode / download mode. I press the volume down, power and home button. The warning comes up and all that i have to do now is to press the volume up key right? wrong!! Inspite of pressing the volume up key the bootloop continues. I dont know what i am doing wrong. I am sure it is a really silly thing but i am not able to figure it out myself. I read the posts and all of them deal with other issues. Can someone help me?
Can someone check this up for me? Switch off your phone and try going into the recovery mode by pressing only the vol. down button and the home button pressed together. If it does not show the warning screen prior to the recovery mode then it would mean that my power button is malfunctioning. It would take just two minutes of your time. Please post your results here. Please.
If you press just the volume down and home button not a lot happens not the warning screen anyway. When I boot into recovery I have to wait for the Samsung logo to appear twice or it just reboots. Might be worth pressing all 3 buttons and wait for the 3rd restart before letting go
Edit
It's volume up home and power for recovery if you get download mode and volume up the phone just reboots hence why you go back to bootloop

The problem is solved. It turned out that it was not a boot loop after all. The power button got pressed and was stuck in that state thus causing repeated reboots. It was by pressing the volume down and home button without pressing the power button that i figured out that the power button was stuck. So i took out the screws and adjusted the band slightly and now alls well.

[Q] how to fix my m8 changed runtime now stuck

i changed the runtime and now its stuck on sory nfc has stoped working and has 2 option dont send and send and whatever i do it stays there is there ayway i can fix it please im realy realy stressed out i think i bricked it or something please help me out ill realy apreciate it is it bricked . i didnt bought it with warranty so lease help me out here
Wow, that is a really long sentence!
Seriously, if the screen comes on, its not bricked.
But you also haven't provided enough info. Is the phone modded, or stock. And if modded, is it running a custom ROM, s-off or s-on?
I had a problem with the phone not booting after switching to ART. I wiped cached and rebooted, and it started up fine.
its stocked man had the phone for only 3 days now
Boot into recovery, wipe cache and reboot.
how can i boot into recovery by pressign and holding volume up and power? i did that already and it restarted optimized apps again for like 10 minutes and got stuck in the same error again would realy apreciate some help
please help guys
Press and hold Volume up + Power for 10seconds, when the screen goes dark, immediately press volume down + power. That'll take you into bootloader.

That button combo just forces a reboot.
Do as suggested in the last response. Once in bootloader, use vol keys to highlight recovery, and power button to select. Once you see the red triangle (stock recovery screen) hit power + vol to show the recovery menu. There you will see an option to wipe cache.
