[Q] Stuck at RSD Lite

ok guys, i really need some help here. not sure what i did wrong, but been stuck at this point for hours. i followed the methods as below
1. Install RSD Lite and USB Driver Motorola
2. Root your Defy with SuperOneClick (guide can be found on previous spoiler)
3. Install System Recovery apk file. Open the app and click Install System Recovery ( place System Recovery apk file in your SD Card)
4. Extract the file Froyo_UK_3.4.2-117 and place the folder in sdcard/goapkrev/backup ( if you cannot find the folder, create one)
5. Click Recovery boot and it should enter clockwork mod recovery
6. Navigate to backup/restore. Do a Backup for your current stock rom (navigate using volume up/down and press Power Button to enter)
7. Wipe data and wipe dalvik cache (in Advanced Options) in the recovery mode
8. Restore Froyo_UK_3.4.2-117
9. Click reboot and right after that press and hold down volumn up button and you should be in boot mode
10. Plug in you Defy to computer and open RSD Lite. Open the file TmobileUS_Boot_Devtree and flash with it.
problem comes when i'm at flashing using RSD lite. when i flash it, it comes to 'please manually power up your phone'. problem is, i keep getting the motorola logo, which i assume is being stuck in a boot loop? i tried to go to recovery and wiping data and cache, and flashing it again, but keep having the same problem.
actually, how to you manually power up the phone? i did a battery pull since pressing the power button seems to get is stuck in the same boot loop, and i dont see any other way.
please help!

Pull battery,
put battery back in holding the VOL-Down until the android pops up...
press VOL-Up and VOL-Down at the same time.
Next screen is for wiping and updating.
Wipe Data/Cache
When done, go to REBOOT and hold down the VOL-Up to go into Flash mode. and flash with RSD 4.9

You should be good to go...

i think i did a stupid thing and flashed the whole thing with a uk_rom.sbf. now my defy is showing a black screen but during flashing with a TmobileUS_Boot_Devtree.sbf, the screen does show SW Update but once finish, it's all black again.

how to i get to the android part when all i can see if the black screen at the moment? sorry for the stupid questions

i have a SEA defy if that's any help.
from the looks of it, i can only use an sbf file to restore to whatever point needed enough to recover more. this is cos i have a blank screen but rsd lite is able to see my phone and flash it with an sbf file.

Make sure the phone is OFF, after that hold the vol-down and power button and KEEP holding vol-down until you see an Android in a box with arrow pointing out..... them press vol-up + vol-down at the same time to enter another screen which will aloow you to wipe data/cache.
Once you've wiped.... download the sbf I linked you and use RSD to flash that in flash mode (vol-up + power on)

no dear, for defy after u see the traingle of android
press the lower right which is hedin
and a menu will popup to u
this is the defy

Anyway, solved it by flashing it with a Finland rom 3.5.2
Maybe I made a mistake somewhere and bricked it, but now running a non-downgradable froyo, but I'm not bothered. Thanks for the help

Stuk on repeating boot animation and new sbf dosn't work?

I flashed a new sbf but forgot to wipe cache and data.
When i tried to start-up my phone, the boot animation kept repeating.
Also when i tried recharging, there was an "?".
Tried to wipe afterwards in stock recovery but i couldn't push the corner.
Found it:
Go in stock recovery (power+vol down). When warning sign appears press one of the buttom corner or if it dusn't work (my case) press both volume keys at the same time. Do both cache and data wipe.
Next go into bootloader (pull battery and put it back in while volume up or press power + vol up) and flash your sbf using RSD lite.

[Q] Phone Seems Dead while Trying to Install Custom ROM

Well, first of all, Hello
It seems like I am pretty screwed up.
I have an Xperia Ion LT28h. I have unlocked the bootloader and rooted it. This happened when I tried install a Custom ROM. This one specifically
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2157980
The instructions said to
Flash boot.img from CM10 ZIP - Did it with flashtool.exe (through Windows)
Boot to CWM (Volume Down button) - Rebooted, but wasnt certain if it was CWM - I had a black light screen (Should have known!!!)
Wipe Data/Factory Reset - Ignored
Wipe Cache & Dalvik Cache - Did it through Flashtool.exe
Now, after rebooting, I got the FreeXperia Boot Image and a purple light. I did not know what to do next, and the phone when to the black light screen - and is staying there.
When I connect the phone to PC and turn on flashtool, I get 'USB Debugging Off' - So I cant even flash the stock kernel back.
What can I do now?

Solved (phew)
Its back on
I ran flashtool.exe - It did show 'USB Debugging Off'
After 10 seconds, it asked for my Phone Model
I selected Ion
It then showed in the log window that my phone was in recovery mode with root access.
I rebooted it in fast mode and flashed a stock elf.
Phew

Xperia Z1 Screen is Black After Flashing SlimKat 4.4.4, Can Boot To TWRP

HowTo flash via adb or fastboot?
Hello,
I updatet my SlimKat Rom from an weekly to "Slim-honami-4.4.4.build.9.0-OFFICIAL-8317".
After that the screen stays black. But the phone works, I get message notification, the Touchscreen vibrates, the alarm works...
Now I won't loose my data and settings. Can I flash the image or the previous again ( it stay on the sd card) via adb or fastboot without touching the phone?
I can enter TWRP, the lights told me (from red to purple and yellow) and it still works. My phone vibrates when I touch (the huge buttons) but I can't see anything.
I've to wipe Dalvik and cache. NOT A FULL WIPE. And install the "Slim-Honami***.zip".
Or maybe can I repair the graphic driver or device?
Thanks you all

Either you flashed the wrong zip, or you're in the wrong forum (since this is for "amami")

@ How To Reboot to Recovery mode
- Keep holding Vol down + power (Side key) - As soon as device warning screen appears, keep holding Vol Up - with USB Connected to PC is important
then flash KETAN Rom...
this is from my experience. so it will work
take care. staY safe...

Just got this phone, bootloader is already unlocked, but trying to figure out how to get TWRP + LineageOS on it. Do you HAVE to flash Dr. Ketan's ROM for all this to work? I keep trying to just flash TWRP with latest R firmware installed and it will boot to TWRP at first, but once I reboot to system it just gets stuck on Samsung logo and won't go past that

Hi,
If your Galaxy Note 10 Plus is stuck on the boot screen, there are a few things you can try to recover your device without losing data:
Boot into recovery mode: Press and hold the power button, volume down button, and Bixby button (if your device has one) until the Samsung logo appears. Then release the buttons and use the volume down button to navigate to "Recovery mode" and press the power button to select it.
Wipe the cache partition: Once in recovery mode, navigate to "Wipe cache partition" and select it. This will wipe the cache files on your device but will not delete any personal data.
Boot into safe mode: Press and hold the power button until the Samsung logo appears, then release the power button and press and hold the volume down button. Continue to hold the volume down button until the device finishes booting. When in safe mode, all third-party apps will be disabled, and you can determine if any of them are causing the issue.
If none of the above steps work, you may try factory resetting your device. However, this will erase all data on the device, so make sure to backup your important files before proceeding.
If none of the steps work, you may need to flash the stock firmware on your device. This process is more complex and requires technical knowledge.
It's recommended to seek help from a professional technician if you are not familiar with the process.
