[Q] Help any one, is my phone bricked ?

hello every one, so I've been searching the net for two days with no answer, help plz , so my problem is I was trying to theme framework-res.apk from rom : RCMix_234_v2.7 for my personal use, when I pushed the framework-res.apk and rebooted the phone was displaying ( Safe Mode ) in bottom left corner so I pushed back the original one but still nothing (Safe Mode ) on, so I rebooted in recovery format ( system,data,cache ) restored an other rom ( virtuous 2.35 ) to make a clean install of RCMix_234_v2.7 rom again but battery was to low, so I turned the phone off and charged the battery , and ever since , the phone boots only in bootloader without even touching the volume keys ! and the volume ( up/down ) keys don't responde , any ideas ?
PS: fastboot and adb don't see the phone , and now with radio s-off ( warranty is void ),kindly help any one , or is my phone bricked ? sorry for the long story and thanks.
If anyone is interested , it was a hardware problem ( volume down key ) phone is finally in care center , than you all.

I'm not very technical with regards to the steps you were doing at the time, but can you take the battery out and put it back in and then immediately press the power button AND the volume down button at the same time for about 7 seconds? IE. Can you boot it into Recovery?

ive had the same thing before turn the phone off and connect it to usb turn the phone on and it should recognise USB

have u installed htc sync? and / or sdk? i think you didn't install the usb drivers

turn your phone off. press and hold volume up and volume down + power button (at the same time) then scroll with volume up till you see "recovery" press power button . wait untill u see an android logo, then press power + volume up . a menu will be shown. choose wipe data )by scrolling with volume) then hit power. choose wipe cache then power. choose reboot system now then power

Nexus firmware is not supported by kies you will never be able to connect it to kies . Just wipe cache from recovery don't wipe data.

This phone doesnt have any Volume +/- power button trick. It ONLY has the yellow reset button. Its a pain in the A*S!
Try a few things first.
1) When you hold down the yellow reset button, are you ONLY holding it down for a few seconds, and it vibrates ONCE?
Have you tried holding it down for 10 seconds, until it vibrates TWICE, indicating it has powered off completely, and THEN try connecting it?
2) If step 1 got your phone to power off completely try:
-Connecting your phone to your PC via USB with the volume DOWN button held and see if you get a GREEN L.E.D. If you do you have
successfully entered flash mode, in which case you can simply flash an FTF file with flashtool.
-Connecting your phone to your PC via USB with the volume UP button held and see if you get a BLUE L.E.D. If you do you have
successfully entered fastboot. From here, as long as you have ADB and your devices drivers installed on your computer, you can flash
a boot.img or "Kernel" with a fastboot command in a command window (fastboot flash boot boot.img). The easiest way to get a kernel or
boot.img with a baked in recovery is to download the latest Cyanogenmod, unzip and extract the boot.img, and flash it via fastboot.
Since you have an unlocked bootloader already, your device should be able to use an AOSP kernel.
From there you should be able to at least boot into recovery, and flash something from your SD card.
Id recommend just flashing the latest Cyanogenmod just to get your device up and running. From there you should be able to follow steps
get back to stock if thats what your looking for.
I hope at least one of these options work.
If not, like that last guy said, take it to a service center and get it checked out.
GOOOOD LUUUUCK!!

All ZL's are like that. Hold down till 1 vibration for reboot. Hold down till 3 vibrations for power off. The yellow reset button will not power on the device however. I figured I'd check just incase my power button decided to go for a sh*t.

I had a similar issue but was able to get into recovery mode and restore a backup.
Can you get to recovery like this
Power Down the LG G4
When Off, Press and Hold the Volume Down and Power Buttons at the Same Time
Continue Holding These Two Buttons Until You See the LG Logo
When You See the LG Logo, Let Go of the Volume Down and Power Buttons for 1 Second
After 1 Second has Passed, Immediately Start Holding the Power and Volume Down Buttons Again
Continue Holding These Two Buttons Until You Boot Up into the LG G4 Recovery Mode

Hi I'm sorry if you've already said you can't get into recovery mode or anything but when i bricked my g4 i used the lg flash tool to flash h815 10c stock and then instead of flashing the latest twrp (the blue themed one) i flashed the one before it which is 2.8.6.1 and it worked perfectly so if you manage to get into recovery or fastboot then try and flash that version of twrp instead , good luck buddy...

How did you "brick" (it's not) it? Kill switch is an anti theft feature, usually triggered remotely by the user.

This button combo you posted is wrong any way...you only release power for 1 sec and continue holding vol down and the re press power

I cut and pasted those instructions from another site. They held me back from fixing my phone for hours until I discovered the method you have mentioned. I haven't seen any site that tells us to do it like you said, I just was trying different ways and then hey presto!! it worked.

The phone is still restarting after selecting reboot also.

Can you boot into recovery?
Most likely you have a corrupted boot or system partition.

I know this is an old thread and was left unsolved quite some time ago. But you must have found a way out yourself after not getting a solution in this forum. Could you share that with me please? I am having the exact same problem!

i have this problem too . please help me
i'm reflash stock frimware but phone boot loop .help plz

I'm having the same problem. any solution guys?

To all who has this problem, please do try to boot into custom recovery (if installed any) and wipe cache and davik-cache. If it still fails, please replug the battery, it should reset the boolean, and if it still fails, an RUU flash is the last resort before hardware issue.

Dear Friends,
if you have same problem with your HTC 820G Duel SIM ( after OTA Update of 6.0.x OS ) please call HTC toll free No. 1800 266 3566 ( Only for India )
even your Hand set is out of warranty,
send Email to them Because when i call to them they say you are only one who is facing this issue ( when i ask then to downgrade my OS to 5.x.x )
service center simply say Mother board problem and ask 9500/- for mother board or 173 /- as diagnostic charges
so please call to get your HTC working with proper OS
my phone is working properly just before 6.0.x OS update....
hope so no. of calls can make them realize real problem with there OS not in hardware
THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE YOUR PHONE WORK calling HTC Customer Care Or Email ( i tried every thing posted in this web site but its restarting & looping... for all stock OS and CM13 and All other Nice OS / all recovery TWRP and Flashing tools i used but no luck...
