I FOLLOWED ALL TUTORIALS BUT I AM STILL STUCK, PLEASE I NEED SOME HELP
So here is the story:
I had Jedi Mind Trick X, but i wanted to upgrade to CM10, and they said that the best was to get CWM Recovery 6, so i open up the ROM Manager app, and clicked on Flash CWM, everything was working fine untill the app asked for root rights, i granted it and then the app frozze. So i tried it again, and same results. So i figured out i had to see if it has updated (the cwm recovery), so i enter recovery mode, and then i can see there that it was updated (this i think, was the bad choice).
And so i start the process of flashing CM10 following the instructions, i already had a nandroid backup so i skipped that step and go right into the wipe data / factory reset. When i was on that screen the app froze, after waiting for a while that it was still froze, i shut down my device and started up again. Of course the phone didnt boot.
So at this point i had a phone that didnt boot, and a recovery that wasnt full installed (so it didnt work either). So i thinked ODIN might be the solution.
i flashed trought odin CWM 5 again and Telus stock ROM.
BUT now, the phone wont enter download mode (shuts downs), and it wont boot either. Althought, the phone DID boot once so i was happy, but it didnt work, the phone shut down by himself.
So now i cant enter recovery mode, download mode, neither boot. every time it enters a mode, it shuts down. so i need gelp
Im thinking of attaching a video of my situation.
Im sory for my english, im from Argentina.
Thanks in advance.
im starting to think tha might be a hardware problem of the power button

Hi everyone,
i just tried to root my unbranded stock 2.1 desire with unrevoked - everything worked fine, there were no errors during the process and after that the phone started clockwerk recovery.
I rebooted the device - and everything seemed to be ok (Root working fine, just did a Titanium backup) but when trying now to enter clockwerk recovery again, the phone is always stuck in the bootscreen (htc logo) and the only way to get back is to pull out the battery.
Does anyone have an idea what could cause this and what i could to to fix this? I waited for more than 15minutes, but nothing is happening and i see no way to enter recovery (and then flash a new rom) again.
Thanks in advance,
jp

What process are you using to enter Recovery?
Entering Fastboot (Power+Vol down) and then selecting Recovery from the Menu....
By the way, after entering fastboot (and before i can select Recovery) there are always a few textlines showing up (too fast to read, but i think somthing like p99xyz.zip is mentioned), it seems like he is searching or updating something....

Yeah that is normal. The text always scrolls there, nothing to worry about.
So when you highlight Recovery and press "Power" it just goes to HTC Screen and doesn't get any further?
If so, it sounds like your recovery has been corrupted somehow?
****I am not 100% sure about the advice I am going to give, so take no responsibility, wait for someone else to confirm****
1. Try reinstalling the permanent recovery via unrEVOked again.
If that doesn't work try:
2. Reinstall a stock RUU which should reset your phone back to stock, ensure it is an original one with a stock Eclair image (not FROYO).
**** AGAIN I am not 100% sure about the advice I am going to give, so take no responsibility, wait for someone else to confirm****
I am not new to the concept of rooting and loading a custom rom. This is the 3rd android phone that I have bothered with. However it is the first one I have had to use Odin to root or push files to.
I have used CarpeNoctem's writeup on how to root and utkanos' CWMR port writeup. Ofter verifying I had root, I decided I would try out Carpe's OsiMood. No problem right? Here is where I am wondering what if anything went wrong on the previous steps.
I made a back up ofter finally getting it to recovery mode, and when I tried flashing the new rom, it would not complete the process.
As it sits, when I choose recovery from CWM it reboots to the android with triangle screen(see attached video). What concerns me is the lack of fluidity into the recovery, the fact that it loads in only after the battery is removed and the phone is turned back on and lastly that I cannot flash a new rom.
It appears as though I need more posts to add my link for youtube.
Please add standard youtube weblink before this to watch the video.

What would you recommend my first action be?
Thanks,

This also quite unfortunate for ROM manager, "somewhat", not working fully for the Glide (yet). I can't really go into 3e/CWM recovery with the app, but manually (volume down + power/lock button) has no problems. This also happens on my Captivate (SGH-I896/7), I need to restart the device for a second time to boot into recovery. As per your flashing issues, you might need to mount /system manually and then flash the ROM, when it fails, try and try again, always happens to me from stock rogers ROM. Also, if you have Titanium Backup, it now supports reboot device features (recovery and hard reboot)
Thanks for your insight. I tried volume down and power before but when I saw the samsung logo pop up I figured it wouldn't work.
I will try flashing again and report back. Thanks again.

Tried flashing again, worked great. If only the glide had more support. Lol.
Currently running OsiMood.

My glide does not boot. I can get into Download Mode. I can NOT get into de recovery mode. I think my NAND is corrupted.
How can I mount the /system partition? Because I flashed too many roms with ODIN, but nothing, still not booting, I get stuck in the samsung logo.
Use Odin to reflash recovery,you backups should still be there unless like you say maybe they got corrupted as well,but its worth a shot.
Here is a link to the latest,with instructions:

I've already flashed the stock recovery, the CWM, a lot of kernels, even I tried to flash the kernel and bootloader of the Galaxy S II, but nothing.
I'm starting to think that maybe is a hardware problem. Hope not, but I'm not moving foward.
If you havent already,pull out the sim and sd card.
Reboot your pc and download a fresh up to date Odin.
So when you flash it says it successful and then just doesnt boot?
I had a boot loop once ,had me stumped and it turned out to be my sd card was poached and caused the loop.

Exactly... It goes all over the process bar, says succesfull, the phone turns off, and nothing. The phone not even restart itself, I have to remove the battery, put it back again, and then it turns on, but just to show me the samsung logo.
I've used the ODIN version 1.85 and the new one 3.04. But nothing. This is so frustating.

I've opened a thread with all the symptoms of my bricked phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2035742
Please, tell me there is a solution...
There are one alternative to boot
1. Shut down and then restart phone in recovery mode. For the Samsung Captivate Glide, this required pressing the power, volume down and home keys all at the same time.
2. The initial screen which appears gives you a choice of loading a replacement OS (volume up) or entering recovery mode (volume down). Note you have to hold the volume down key for several seconds before the recovery mode menu appears.
I am soft-bricked (I hope). A boot jig does nothing for me, but I am able to get into twrp recovery. It won't let me flash my current rom though (Mijjz). What should I do? (I am able to access odin through the twrp recovery right now though, and the computer does recognize it.) I am not able to boot directly into it. When attempting to flash in twrp it can't verify the partition size. I believe this is emmc?
Edit: This helped, but... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27852689&postcount=435
So this got my phone to boot again (yay) and now it can go into download mode and such, but my phone appears to be in a boot loop of the sprint logo, turning on and off. =( now what?
Edit #2: I am posting how I got this running for future visitors with my issue to see that there is hope of getting there device back online . So after I was able to get into download mode, I was able to go and flash the El26CWM and then do a Wipe on everything. I then was able to flash my favorite ICS rom, and get on my way. Unfortunately somewhere along the way my Modem got wiped out so I had to go back into download mode to flash it, and I found a new issue. For some reason, my phone still refuses to enter download mode without a jig. So I put my jig in, and downloaded the modem. All is working now (except I still can´t figure out why I need a jig to enter download mode, and the recovery wont boot for me either. It just goes and boots up normally. Its like until the Rom is loaded, it doesn´t take any imput from the buttons. I´m now running an FF18 kernel, so I find this to be odd, but at least I have a working device. Now I´m off to buy myself a nice memory card to compensate for the lost 8 gigs. The only thing that I can think of that may be causing the no download mode issue (although I can´t see why or how) is that I had a custom splash screen (not boot animation, splash screen) before I corrupted my emmc. Throughout the whole process of restoring, it displayed my custom one, except when I put on EL26, it went back to the Normal Boot screen. (the only time since the emmc screwed up that my buttons responded) But when I flashed back up, the custom one came back, and my controls to get into recovery and download mode stopped working again.
Hello,
Here is what led to my issue:
I rooted my phone using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38886073#post38886073
Downloaded clockwork rom manager.
Here comes the thing I don't remember. At least i know that the last thing i did was to click on 'backup current rom'
After this the phone reset itself and this message came up:
Secure booting error!
Cause: boot certification verify
Then i tried to reset using the power button, which led me to the 'battery full' screen - afterwards i was able to reboot. As stupid as I am I just tried the same thing again. And ever since i am stuck at the 'Secure booting error!' screen.
I am unable to enter download mode. I get to the 'Hard factory reset' screen, but if i accept doing so, it says 'Secure booting error!' again.
I also remember clicking on 'restart into recovery mode' at some point, but this is not the last thing i did.
I am really desperate. Please, help me!
Well i had the same issue today... It happened after i did two changes. One of them was to to try to relock from freegee and flash twrp again from freegee. In my case i was able to go in download mode and flash original kk rom with lg flash tool.
Unfortunatly, trying to boot in downloadmode, i still get the same error :/

How are you trying to boot into download mode? And what factory reset screen? It seems as though you did not unlock the bootloader using freegee, if you make any changes and relock the boot loader you will get that error. But it seems that it has not been unlocked. If you hold power and volume up what happens? Same thing when power and volume down, one of them is recovery (possibly factory reset you are seeing) and the other is download mode. I don't remember right now but you should read the whole softbrick thread and see if you are missing something. You may need to use LGPNST to go back to stock, you can also use that program to flash a new recovery so read carefully and follow all steps.
When this happened to me I was able to flash an unlocked bootloader and it allowed me to use my phone again as it was before doing something stupid (for me it was an attempt to re lock the bootloader).
well, i managed to get into download mode. Obviously i used the wrong method to get into download mode...
I used this method and everything worked fine, so far. : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2249500
My phone doesn't boot now. Fast Boot doesnt work aswell.
All that happens is a white battery showing on the screen and when i try to fastboot all that happens is that the LED is blinking or glowing red after some while.

What do you mean when you try to fastboot? Fastboot is basically the bootloader and allows you to select recovery or download mode. What you should have done after following that thread is go to recovery and wipe everything and flash a new ROM.
If you are saying that the bootloader is not coming up and allowing you into recovery then I believe something was missed.
After trying out some varioants of this it worked: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40274560&highlight=red+led#post40274560
I wiped the phone, but since I had to leave over the weekend i just turned it off and went away.
Now that I am back, nothing works now :/ The Phone doesnt react to anything, not even donwload-mode.
Is the battery too low maybe? It's on the wall now for a few hours, but it still doesn't react. It's not warm either.
edit:
when i charge the phone, i will get a 'watchdog bark' after some time allowing me to get into recovery. accesing downloadmode from there doesn't do anything. strangely, the recovery isnt trwp although it should be because teenybin comes with it. it's 'bbs.gaodi.net' which doesn't have a sideload feature. what do i do now?
edit2:
after 10000 tries i got into download mode. i don't want to **** up now so i won't do anything until i know exactly what to do.
any advice?
edit3:
got it working by flashing another teenybin which included trwp - then i installed miui via sideload. i don't have signal though, but i will open another thread for this since this is another issue.
Hi. I was trying out Blisspop on this tablet and decided I preferred CM11 so decided to restore a backup. After rebooting, nothing turned on, only download mode worked so I just flashed stock firmware using Odin (which I had used successfully previously). Now it boots but gets stuck at the Samsung Logo. I can still get to download mode, but nothing else. I've read that if factory reset in the stock recovery, it'll work itself out but I can't even get to it. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Dont panic really common problem happened to me.
1. Boot into recovery, if not flash one with odin coz your gonna need something...like philz touch or team win or whatever.
2. Wipe cache and dalvik, reboot and wait, samething might appear to happen but it should boot.
Basically ive noticed a few times now on my t805 that the cache wouldnt format propperly and became corrupt and caused this.
I knew this because in the recovery a bunch of errors appeared saying couldnt acces log from cache/blah zt each time i navigated the menu of revoveryand so i wiped cache and they stopped
Booted and viola...if you see any other errors in recovery tell us here.
Good luck m8.

The problem was that I couldn't even get into recovery. But found thread on xda that mentioned if you turn off the tablet from download mode (pressing power and volume down) then you can use the normal three button method to get to recovery. And then yes, I wiped everything I could and it finally booted back up. Thanks for the help mate.
