Probably not. If you cant get your SD card to mount, then you probably screwed.

damn, same problem!!
Yeah, i couldnt get s off because sd wouldnt mount to be able to flash anything, nor would ir mount with the pc to able to flash ruu or anything.
Spending $90
Let me know if you figure it out.

Did you guys do/change anything RIGHT before it happened? Just wondering so maybe we can avoid it happening to anyone else.

I did nothing other then do a nan backup...

I've had this happen twice now, two diff. phones. sucks... I don't know what causes it, but you need to call Verizon and get a refurb. Make sure to pull the rom.zip from the most recent RUU file (from nov.) and rename it to PB31IMG.zip and you will be un-rooted and back to stock w/o repercussions of losing warranty.

also when not connected to power, does it do the vibrate three times then blinking green notification light until battery pull?

but bootloader isnt reading anthing from sd card so i wouldnt be able to flash that

Thats exactly what happened to me on Sunday. I had to get a new phone. If you notice the adb drivers aren't working, or mine weren't. I was thinking it was just a bad usb port but why would it go back to s-on. Mine did exactly same thing.

what rom were you using?

Well I was using reengineered and switched to magnolia. I unplugged the usb cable right before hitting reboot after flashing. It never booted up. I went through everything, even flashed back to RUU. When I went in to flash RUU I noticed I was s-on. I hadn't done anything that should do that. I was about to give up (already called verizon) when I plugged in the data cable, I had tried the power cable (i have 1 usb plugged into ac adapter and 1 into computer) but it didnt change anything. Soon as I plugged it into the data cable and powered the phone on, it booted up fine. I did managed to get it to reboot unplugging the usb cable while it was on. Once it just rebooted, once it went to the 5 vibrates/led flash error thing. Once I got it working it would work fine (except for usb/sdcard) until I plugged in the usb cable again. Would charge fine on ac though. I didn't notice the sdcard thing until later when I couldn't set any options in handcent. Somehow I just don't feel its just a bad usb port.
I still have my old phone, going to send it back tomorrow if you want to know anything.

it's very strange that you have 5 vibrates, I've read everywhere and I seem to be the only one who have had this happen on two diff phones, getting 3 vibrates... it boots to the splash screen then instead of boot animation it vibrates 3 times, blank screen and green flashing notification light only remedy to pull the battery. I found that it would boot up only with usb or wall power, and I was able to take the ROM.zip from the nov. update RUU and rename it to PB31IMG.zip since it's signed and got me back to stock splash, recovery ect. and since I was turned to S-ON ( dunno how). weird.

My situation is the same with the 5 vibrate and then blinking light until i remove the battery. I cant get the phone to start up at all i keep going to recovery.

ok, i was finally able to get stock android back on. So im getting somewhere at least.
I had to reformat my sd, rename my rom.zip to PB31IMG.zip and put it back on there. And now im at least back to stock. Now i gotta see if i can re root it.

its crazy that after getting the rom and recovery etc... back to stock, it still wants to vibrate 5 times if i unplug usb.

Trust me bro I feel your pain I had two phones do this, a blown speaker, one had the green noti light go out, first brand new one had the camera lens pushed in. even with all the problems I love the phone. just get it back to stock like you have, call 1800-922-0204, push 0, push 0, enter your account password and tell the rep whats up. get new phone. if you bought with amoled, thats what youll get. I should know Ive gone through 4 in the past week. I've brought back 2 boxes last week and I have 3 more to bring back tmw, at one point I had three incredibles sitting in my room. I have two batteries to send back too. man I can't wait to upgrade to the Thunderbolt. Every one of these refurbs it's something else. the last one with the green light blown out, that trackpad was PERFECT it hurts to loose that, this one is a little pushed in, but what can you do, not too mention the back door wasn't creaky at ALL, and on this on its sooooo looose. I just can't win. so this one needs cardboard behind the battery and its still not as good a fit as the last refurb... not too mention who knows if the cardboard isn't good?

[Q] phone bricked? can only boot to fastboot. recovery reboots with 7 vibrations

i ask as i updated my radio last night for the 1st time in aaages and the phone turns on etc as you'd expect. since then though (this morning) i've had random reboots. i've got recovery images of different roms and both do the same.
i tried a clean install of a new rom and it reboots while installing, i try to install again and this time it gets to the "press on the droid" option when it reboots again.

Weird..did u try flashing a different radio?

not yet. in work for a while longer. the only other thing i can see it being, is the kernels in the rom i'm using now, using too little voltage.
might try flashing a different kernel

I have had this problem before & as has been suggested a different radio did solve the problem. Hope it turns out something as simple for you.

As a last resort try wiping and flashing an RUU, that will replace the kernel, radio and rom

yea, had a thought on doing that too. grabbed 2 of em (not sure which i need) but today it's not rebooting

ok, somethings gone real wrong now. cant do anything more than go into fastboot. recovery causes a reboot with 7 vibrations on the boot screen and it wont go past it. i can go into fastboot/fastboot usb and that's it.
how do you flash a ruu now? i found a guide but it refers to downloading .zip images and putting em on an sdcard? i could only see .exe ruus

Just run the ruu exe while your phone is connected in fastboot. Do you have the ruu that was originally on the phone?

trying it now. got the ruu downloaded. tried it before but got some funky errors
phones doing some funky stuff at the mo. if this works (i hope) then i can use unrevoked and then alpharev to get root/s-off later again yea?
ta mate

Yeah, you can do that.

off to try the old goldcard method

odd, even the goldcard tool didnt work. did a year or so ago when i 1st rooted. had to go old school on this thing.
edit
and after several tries, alpharev doesnt work
cant make the phone reboot when it needs to. worked last time with opendesire with no probs at all. no joy with oxygen though, or the default sense rom

ok, thanks to the forum, i've got opendesire installed now and i think somethings up. after an install (clean) it locked. hard. 3 finger salute didn't reboot the phone and had to pull the batt out (other roms caused reboots instead). i decided to take the sim out - and nothing. no more locks/reboots at all.
i'm gonna try the sim in another phone tonight and see what happens.
something very off with this phone.

I had this problem after I flashed a radio. I ended up sending it back to O2 due to a corrupt radio/cpu stack on the actual device.

HELP!!! Rooted using Unrevoked 3, now phone randomly locks up!

So I just rooted using the latest unrevoked, but now my phone locks up after about 30 seconds or so, then vibrates 5 times. More troubling: It cannot see an SD card, will not mount or format.
Hoping someone can help me get back to stock.
I did not take the gingerbread OTA, FWIW.

OK, well ,the obvious first question is gonna be are you s-on or s-off.
Turn your phone on while holding the power button down to see what it says at the top when Hboot starts up.

Boot into the bootloader, then select clear storage, then try to boot up normally.

OK, so I managed to flash PC36IMG.zip. So now I'm back to stock and the EVO runs fine without rebooting. Wheeew! I was already scanning eBay for a replacement, LOL! Only issue I have now is that my Evo does not recognize the SD Card (won't let me mount, format, nothing.) I'm seeing some threads on this sort of thing, but if anyone has a quick fix I'd love o hear it. I've got a 16 GB card full of music that's just sittin' there.

Oh, now this is bad: the battery does not seem to charge after restoring... at least the charging symbol is not coming on!
UPDATE: OK, the red light is coming on now when I plug in, but battery status shows "discharging." I don't know at this point whether it's charging or not.

OK, just verified. Phone isn't charging. Down to 50%. Shutting off so I'll have enough juice to fix ti when I figure our what needs to be done. I don't have a separate battery charger, so I'm SOL if I can't get this thing working again.
Any help would be much appreciated!

sd card fix. Also, turn the phone off as you have, but leave it plugged in charged over night and see what happens for now.
Make sure you have the hboot drivers downloaded, then install, then uninstall htc sync, enable usb debugging from applications > development, then run unrevoked again.

Thanks, I'll give it a try this weekend. Right now I've got a spare battery charger on order with Amazon. Should be in this Friday. Don't want to mess with anything until I can start with a fully charged battery.

You're S-On. There's nothing you can, or could have messed with, unless you don't have the new update on your phone, which was going to be my next question

I don't have the new update on my phone. It's still showing Android 2.2 and I never approved the OTA.
One suggestion that seems to work for some people is to flash a new radio. I wonder if someone could help me with this:
1) What do I need to know choose the appropriate radio to flash?
2) Do I need to be rooted to do so, because it seems I'm not.
I'm browsing eBay for cheapie Oprimus S phones... please help me not have to buy a used $100 Optimus S because I murdered by Evo :-(

Yes, you need to be rooted to flash the radios fro ma zip file.
you don't to flash form PC36IMG.zip file, and there is the choice to do it either way.
I'm curious, you said in your OP that you rooted, and the phone went into maintenance mode (The vibrates 5 times thing is maintenance Mode).
Are you sure the root took? I would do this, reinstall HTC-Sync, then install just the program, not the drivers, and try Unrevoked again, make sure it goes through the root process and the flash of clockwork recovery.
If it boots up, then you're good.
From there, I would flash Amon Ra, as it's a better recovery, and then try a ROM.
Radios is the least important thing you can flash, and I'd save that for last, and make sure you know in detail what you're doing, when it comes to radio flashing.

I can't be sure I rooted. I'm just going by what Unrevoked reported. Superuser was installed, but the phone would die before I had much time to verify that I was actually rooted.
I've never installed HTC Sync, BTW. According to the unrevoked instructions you shouldn't have it installed on your PC because it causes problems.

OK, so I got home and the phone says battery is 100% charged. So that's good. It appears to charge when turned off, at least.
Sadly, it does not recognize USB at all. The computer beeps when I plug the phone in, but the phone shows no popups or anything.
I tried running "unrevoked" again, but unrevoked just kept waiting for me to plug in the phone. I did not install HTC Sync.
The phone does not recognize micro sd cards from within Android, but I can flash signed ROMs. I did that today, flashing what I think is a newer ROM than I had before, but alas it did me no good. The phone still does not see the micro SD card or realize that I'm plugged in and charging.
The ROM I sintalled this time was the third link on this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884060
It corresponds to the software version I was running before running UNREVOKED the first time.
I'm getting pretty worried here. I don't see how I'm supposed to fix this phone if I cannot communicate via USB.

Installing HTC Sync will install the drivers on your computer, which you need for unrevoked to work, but then, you need to uninstall the program (not the drivers).

Ugh, now I've discovered another problem. With this latest stock ROM I've lost bluetooth!
I'm losing hope here. My last best hope seems to be to accept the Gingerbread OTA, and if that doesn't solve the problem throw myself on the mercy of our local Sprint repair store. Anyone know what their policy is on this?
Will they repair something like this for a fee if it's not under warranty? I imagine even completely brcked Evos can be repaired with a new motherboard, right?
Should I try telling them that the OTA screwed it up? Will they be able to tell what I've done to the phone?
At this point I just want to get back to stock. No longer interested in rooting. I need a cell phone just for daily living.

USB Issues

I was running Leedroid on my Desire and all was fine.
I seen these Sense 2.1+3.0 ROMS and decided to give one a go.
I tried to get into recovery before doing anything to take a NAND Backup, but it just refused to go into recovery. I finally got it in there and tried to apply to update.zip but it kept saying something could not be found, I forgot what, and failed after 10 tries.
I booted mu phone up and I'd lost all my data. It's like the phone had been wiped.
I tried reseating the SD Card and checking it was all ok, but then I got stuck in a bootloop. In the mean time, my Alienware Laptop decided to die, followed by my backup Dell laptop! lol
I messed around for ages trying to get various things to work, but couldn't do it. In the end, I downloaded the old root method and flashed Cyanomod 7 which seemed to work and I got it booted, but I couldn't mount the SD card and it would rarely pick up that the USB was connected.
I then flashed AceSMod007 which also seemed to go well minus 2 things.
The first, Text messages seem to show my contacts picture, but also it only shows their Number rather than the contact name. This is VERY annoying and I can't find a way to resolve it.
The second issue, and possibly the most worrying is that it won't pick up USB connection AT ALL. This includes when it's plugged into the Wall to charge.
I tried the USB Brick fix, but that didn't work at all.
I shutdown the phone, removed the battery, plugged in the charger, inserted the battery and booted up the phone and it started charging, but as soon as I unplugged the charger and put it in again, same problem.
I'm currently trying another ROM to see if that resolves the issue, but I suspect that it won't tbh.
Has anyone came across this before and/or knows how to fix it?
Other things I've tried:
Wiping all data, cache and Battery data.
Using different USB cables
Thanks
UPDATE:
Flashing a different ROM didn't seem to resolve it.

Quick update.
I flashed Insertcoin rom onto the phone and it's resolved my text message issue.
Also, when I plugged the phone into the PC, it didn't give me any options for mount SD or anything like that, but said it was charging. However, an hour later and the battery had only gone down.
Since charging by USB has always been slow for me, I plugged in into the wall socket for an hour but it wouldn't pick up that I'd plugged it in. I turned the phone off and I got the LED to say it's charging.
Left it, then booted it up and still has the same battery level.
I don't expect it's the battery otherwise it would pick up fine when plugging into the PC.

Could be an usb brick:

Actually, no. Its says Turning On... Then just goes back to off.

you DO have USB-Brick
you gotta fix it
if S-OFF do:
fastboot oem enable qxdm 0
fastboot oem eraseconfig
if S-ON there are a few threads on xda on how-to do it, if you still get no USB-connectivity you just didnt do it right
good luck

Ah, I did try it a few times. I'll just keep trying then.
Cheers

Are you S-Off or S-On and are you still ROOTED?
This thread for USB Brick
See for my post here
if you are S-off or tried to flash a RUU and lost ROOT!
This thread has a flasher with built in USB Brick fix

I'd already followed the USB Brick guide and it didn't help.
Now, is I were to have missed the step that says to run '/data/flash_image misc /data/mtd0.img', I'd be a bit of a tit.
So let's just say that I tried the guide again and now I have full USB functionality back
I was going to S-OFF my phone, but I'll hopefully get a Sensation soon and I don't want to fubar anything in the mean time.
Thanks for the help and pointers though guys. It's nice to be a member of some forums that aren't full of people who want to cry at you for not understanding everything 100%.
Cheers again

just use the thanks button
glad we (or at least I) could help.

[Q] HTC One X not switching on

Okay, first of all, I would like to mention that I'm new at all of this.
I brought this phone 2 years ago and 2 months ago I decided I was going to root it. So I switched to CyanogenMod 11 M4 and did everything that was required i.e., unlocking bootloader and flashing a recovery and all that.
Just 2 days ago my phone showed an update available to CyanogenMod 11 M5. So I downloaded it and then the phone took me to my recovery. There I made a backup and flashed the M5.zip file that was downloaded. But when I rebooted my system a popup came saying com.process.phone has stopped unexpectedly. I pressed OK but it was persistent. I had no idea what to do so I booted into recovery and wiped data and then performed a restore of my previous backup that I had taken. Half-way through the backup the phone just switched off and then restarted with the traditional HTC logo and then it switched off again and restarted again and this process kept looping.
I loaded my bootloader and connected the phone via fastboot to my computer and erased the cache and flashed the recovery again. Then wehn I restored it started working normally as it did before.
But the battery was around 20% at that time so I left it to charge overnight. When I woke up the next day it was insanely hot and the LED was constantly red but it wouldnt wake up. So I loaded into recovery to restore it again but it kept on saying "Error mounting /system!"
And then after a few tries it switched off. Now it won't wake up again. Even the LED seems dead.
Has anyone of you ever encountered a similar issue? Any help would be appreciated. I've tried all the button combinations that are recognized by the device but nothing seems to work.

dead battery
i guess its because of corrupt or dead battery
try giving external power or replace battery and try
further you could even try other options like booting cwm
flashing last kernel image found

Booting CWM or flashing the last kernel image aren't an option because the device doesn't switch on at all. I cannot access the bootloader.

try changing battery
try changing battery by buying new battery and connecting
or remove battery and charge it with external source i guess u must have heard of jump starting battery

No, I didn't do that because when I switched over from a CM11 Nightly to CM11 Snapshot M4 I didn't extract and flash the boot image even then and everything was working perfectly. So, I didn't think I would need to.

U should give it a try, since some CM updates triggers the kernel itself so boot.img should be flashed again.

That is the problem. I can't. When I connect it to the PC it just never shoes up and I have no luck getting into the bootloader. Do you know of any reliable unbricking guides? I'm guessing my phone is possibly bricked.

Nah, nothing is suitable. There are guides on how not to brick your device but nothing to unbrick it. :|
Thanks anyways. It's appreciated.

Another bricked HOX apparently. There seem to be loads of these on the internet. In my case, it can't have to do with custom roms or rooting since I never messed around with stuff like that. I even opened the HOX and checked all cables etc. There is no part that looks damaged or otherwise suspicious.
What can we do? How can we at least get access to the data in the internal memory?

Don't know if this will help, but it might be that it hasn't actually charged properly over night and has drained itself to death.
Try plugging into PC and get to fast boot.
Fastboot = Volume Down + Power Button
Then make a batch file out of this:
" @echo off
:start
fastboot getvar battery-voltage
fastboot reboot-bootloader
ping /n 6 localhost >nul
goto start
"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Then run the Batch File

Unfortunately, there's no way this could help. because the HOX is literally dead. There is not even a charging indication when plugged into a PC or the wall charger. And thus it's not recognised by the PC and fastboot won't find it.
