and "adb loob.bat" method I dont know why nothing works it runs the loop i do the recovery and i get a black screen with a pic of a phone with a red triangle and a ! in the middle and the computer dont find the device
Please help thanks
First of all you should have posted your question here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=754020
Secondly, if you need it more spelled out, try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=754020
Whatever you do read and make sure you have everything installed, sauch as the SDK, as well as the files necessary placed in the tools folder of the SDK to make it easier to push the files.
ok....have you rooted a Slide before? When you first boot into recovery you get a screen with a phone and a red triangle. Hold down your volume up button and power button at the same time and it should get you to the stock recovery. From there you need to choose Apply sdcard: update.zip. From there if you have done the root process correctly it should boot up into clockwork recovery.
Not sure if you made it that far if your device isn't recognized by adb.
Hope this helps and please post in the correct section next tim. Things like this go in Q&A

CDMA GALAXY NEXUS> Hey guys, I was running Romanbb's 4.0.4 build earlier today. I clicked on a video (which may or may not have been on a porn site) all of a sudden my screen went all wacky. Where it was kind of fuzzy and running diagnal across the screen. I could only see part of it. I thought I might have gotten a virus or something because i have never had one of my devices do this before. So I immideatly rebooted the phone into recovery and wiped eveything including formatting system. I went to flash a nandroid I had of black ice and in the middle of flashing that my phone rebooted itself and stayed there (bootlooping at the google logo) I can get into fastboot and I can get into recovery about one out of every ten times but I cant do anything in recovery because the phone turns itself off insted of booting recovery most of the time (I have clockwork touch) When I do get into recovery without it turning off it reboots if I try to flash anything. It seems to be stable in fastboot (thank god!) but When I get it connected in Wugs Root tool kit and try to flash the stock image it goes through the motions and says FAILED on every step exept the first (which I believe is checking radio). It says ( error too many links) on the first two) and I cant remember the error on the last four but I have tried it a couple times so I can replicate it if needed. Can anyone tell me what to do from here? I really appreciate in advance!!! If this is a hardware error then I would like to get it back to stock to get it replaced. It is weird that it happened while running a rom. Its not like I messed up while flashing or anything.
ADB will recognize it in Fastboot. I already set all of that up when I rooted. when I try to flash the stock+unroot option on wugfresh's toolbox it errors out on every step like there is something wrong with my internal sd on my phone? Im wondering if I should try odin. IDK? Im hoping somebody who has seen this or had this happen before will save the day and tell me what to do.
lol why did you rush into CWM and start wiping things? you should have let it reboot and it probably could have been a one off..
you can try this http://rootzwiki.com/topic/14145-od...actory-odin-restore-402-with-radios-unrooted/
It is stable in fastboot but in cwr it is still geeking out
It still is glitching in cwr. most of the time it either turns off or reboots when I try to go into cwr. i can wipe but if I flash anything it freezes at the point where it starts writing to storage. I have never seen anything like this before.
I have now tried oden as well
It looks like it is a problem with the hardware. The phone is only a couple months old if that. So I really wish I could flash the stock image or at least get rid of cwm. but that is not looking likely. Here are a couple pics of odin showing the problem. Any guidace would be much appreciated. This SUCKS
Why in the heck are you trying to use Odin?
I can only get into fastboot and odin.
CWM wont let me do anything. it crashes and reboots into a bootloop if I try to flash anything. The poster above suggested odin. I dont know what else to do. Please help if you can!
Can you get a screencap of when it fails fastbooting the stock images?
yes
yes, give me couple min and I will post it. Thank you!
I guess I cant. This is all I get now

How are you attempting to access fastboot?
Vol + and Vol - and power all at the same time
Vol + and Vol - and power all at the same time from powered off
And oden was Vol - and power at the same time from powered off
Now no matter what I push it goes to the screen with the yellow triangle.
That screen says you (now) have a corrupt partition.
At this point, you must use Odin, which is unfortunate. What URL did you use to download the image? The current image in that thread was on multiupload.

during my rooting attempt I had a problem with the two vol buttons. It was quite frustrating. Keep trying them and try pressing the power button a fraction of a second sooner.
I downloaded the one later in the thread

there were a couple other posts right around the same time with it but they all were the same file name
I thought I saw the same files in the xda thread i found also
I used that thread because it is the one that the second post linked for me.

I pm'd you to ask how you could fix it. Just wondering if I could do it. I can follow instructions well. I have never had a problem and have been flashing stuff for a year or so. IDK what happened here.
I can't help but I wanted to share that I had a similar experience. I was bonne stock and clicked on a you tube video and my phone immediately shut down and tried to reboot itself, but only would boot loop. I had to manually reformat my partitions to recover. Sounds like your case might be even worse. Still don't know what my problem was.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
Thanks. Any feedback is appreciated.
so you can't get into bootloader or odin screen any more? if so try using a Jig it works to get the phone into odin mode for me. i used the same usb jig i made for the captivate.
I got the same suggestion from someone else. I have to wait until radio shack opens in the morning and I will give it a shot. Otherwise, I went by verizon and they are having samsung send me a replacment. I would much rather keep this one if I can though
I tried flashing the stock image from fastboot and it failed though when I could get there, and I also tried flashing the stock image through oden when I could get there and both failed multiple times so I don't have much hope. I think something broke.
I am headed to radio shack now. Be back soon with a answer as to wheather I can save my baby or not.
Hi all,
i got my hand on bricked Desire HD which seemes to be stucked in sw update loop.
The story goes like this:
Owner of this DHD got notification that ROM update is available ("the official one")
He choose to update it and aparently he did "everything by the book"
After 1st reboot it got to the update loading screen which stuck on aproximatly 30% and didn't move a bit. what he did after, i don't know.
The problem is:
when connected to charge it turns on after a few min. and goes to the loop
after removing battery and connecting it to charger it does it again
But the biggest problem is that when you hold vol down + power button just before phone turns on (after removing battery, returning battery and connecting to charger) it doesn't go to HBOOT but just goes to dam update loop
Can anyone help please, the image of stuck screen is in the attachment of this thread
Can anyone help please
Did anything similar happened to anyone else?
Update maybe corrupted. Take sdcard to pc and remove update.zip from sdcard or format it, if phone included with sdcard. Try boot phone with power and vol+ press down without sdcard?.
Try flash phone PD98IMG.zip "download newest RUU, open it and go to temp folder "C:\Users\****\AppData\Local\Temp\{EFF37DC5-1DC7-478F-B64E-447807C64D80}\{50F2F878-636A-496F-A7CB-544C067E0C4B} in windows 7", find rom.zip, rename it PD98IMG.zip, put it into sdcard root, boot phone with power and vol- press down".
You can correct me if i was wrong on this matter

Thank you for replying but i already tried every methot to enter hoboot or fastboot with or without sd card nor with stock PD98img.zip on the sdcard

Hi,
by holding vol up + power button phone vibrates 3 times and turns on led(green on my Desire and orange on desire HD) i presume that this is some kind of programing interface because my PC reckognized device as a qualcom cdma technologies msm device.
I can't find correct driver or any info with which app should i connect to device and reflash it.
I have already searched trough this forum so if i missed something please provide link to thread
BIG HELP WOULD BE IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW TO PROGRAM, FLASH OR ANYTHING IN THIS CONNECTION MODE
i GOT TO IT LIKE THIS:
1. i POWERED OFF MY DEVICE
2. PRESS AND HOLD VOL UP
3. PRESSED POWER BUTTON
4. AFTER THIS PHONE VIBRATED 3 TIMES AND NOTIFICATION LED TURNED ON
5. i CONNECTED USB CABLE
6. DESIRE HD WAS DETECTED BY MY PC AND SHOWN IN DEVICE MANAGER JUST LIKE IN ATTACHMENT OF THIS POST
THANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCE
I thought the Desire HD is just like the inspire. Can you volume down and power button at same time to enter hboot without pluggin phone into computer? If so see if its s-off (rooted) or s-on (not rooted). You might be trying to flash a non rooted stock rom on a rooted phone or a rooted rom on a non rooted phone. We are not supposed to accept OTA updates on rooted phones, screws phone up.
Thank you Reinaldo33897 for replying but you did not read carefully my posts!
Look at the image in the 1st post - that is all you can get on this phone and no
1. you can not access hboot or fastboot by pressing vol down + power button,
2. there is no reading update from sdcard
All that you can access on this phone is by pressing vol up + power button after it phone vibrates 3 times and flashes led. Then you can connect phone to pc to be detected.
I presume that this is some programming interface but i need to find driver or some appliction to access either system partitions or console so i can remove/edit script that is preventing me from accessing hboot/fastboot
I have tried every thing - combination - to access any of the functions of this DHD. Unfortunatly nothing worked. If anyone can help or provide link to the solution i'd be wery greatful.
Only way you can connect this phone to PC is to hold volume up and press power button and after it vibrates 3 times and flashing orange led you can connect it to PC to be detected. The phone is visibile as a Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM in device manager. I have read somewhere that this is Qualcom debuging interface but couldn't find any software to connect trough it.
PLEASE IF ANYONE HAS ANY INFORMATION OR SOFTWARE PROVIDE A LINK OR ANYTHING
THANK YOU ALL WERRY MUCH

to see device in adb or fastboot, device must be in fastboot/bootloader mode or booted

SOLVED
Hi all!
I have solved the problem!
As this was some kind of prototype it had diferent HW and update procedures so it stucked in update loop without any usable interface to program. It had diferent motherboard inside so it took my friends 2 h to connect to it and repair it trough Riff.
If any of you ever get any phone that is not stock by aperance DO NOT TRY TO DO ANY KIND OF UPDATE WITHOUT FINDING ALL THE POSSIBILE INFO ON THAT PHONE. THE WORST THING IS THAT THESE KIND OF THE PHONES HAVE SPECIFIC RADIO IMAGE
I did some experimentations on my old Desire and kept bricking it and only unbickable situation was when i forced wrong radio image. Every other brick combination leaves fastboot interface so it can be fixed
P.S. DO NOT SCREW UP BOOTLOADER AND/OR RADIO
This thread is for closing so forum admin please do so.

I have same problem, but I found a way to go to the bootloader by pressing volume down + power then leave the power button but don't take your finger off the volume down until it boot, but it could takes about 5-10 minute until the device boot, the bad news is the bootloader is not responding, and you can't use
volume buttons or power button to choose anything from the bootloader menu.
Is there any way to recover the phone without using RIFF??
Thanks

You have not bricked your phone....a brick is a brick. If the phone turns on and you can access the bootloader, then you might be able to solve your issue.
In your specific case, you have messed your bootloader up by flashing either ENG S-OFF or a froyo hboot to your GB shipped phone. That can be fixed..takes time but it is fixable...

When I boot I get a green screen with the message

I have read that pushing up+power or up +down combinations -= BOTTOM LINE NOTHING REVIVES IT
In this country the model in use is the D851 so I am out of luck.
I am willing to ship AND PAY to whoever is capable and willing to help this 70 year old retired partially disabled.
Please in the spirit of the holidays can anyone try to find it in his heart to help,
I would be so grateful if i find the true directions. I know I am not the only idiot that fell in this but I also know quite a few people succeeded in fixing
I have the original KZD file if it helps, also the LG flashing toold just not the proper guidance

If you have the original proper KDZ for your F400L and you can enter download mode successfully, then you should be able to revert it back to stock yourself free of charge! Follow these steps verbatim and you should be good to go.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
Edit: I should have mentioned that this is a kernel panic and nothing too serious so long as you're able to enter download mode. The method I linked you to is very simple and brings the phone back to stock (but not on the right path if you want to do over the air updates). If you were Bump'd and had a custom recovery like TWRP or Philz recovery installed, then you should still be able to boot into recovery and restore a backup if you made one or try clearing the cache. Hold the Volume down + Power button upon booting up and it should enter directly into the recovery.

I'm pretty new at this. Was just given this phone, was going to do the update from HTC Sync, which I have since realized I shouldnt have done anyway, the phone got disconnected during the update and is now bricked. I can hold the volume button and power and get to the htc download mode. When I press reboot to bootloader, the boot to recovery mode it shows an exclamation point in an upside down triangle.
I've searched for hours trying to find a way to reflash the factory firmware and am not having any luck. If anyone could help I would greatly appreciate it.
Download the RUU and flash it
Thats my problem, where do I get it?
I'd really appreciate any help. I've got no phone right now, lol.

The RUU attached to this post should work beautifully for you.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-526/general/verizon-htc-desire-526-boot-loader-root-t3587118
You can also read through that thread of mine to unlock your bootloader and root the phone.
Heres a direct link to the RUU.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/bd2u64...y4/0PM3IMG.zip
Unzip the download.
Copy the 0PM3IMG.zip that is inside to a SD Card.
Put the sdcard in the phone.
Boot the phonr into download mode.
Hit volume up key to flash the ruu.
You will most likely need to do it 2 times.
Possibly more. If the phone reboots without flashing everything do it again.
You will see when it flashes system files. If it flashes system it is good to go.
Reboot the phone.
Enjoy the Fresh Out of the Box phone.
Please hit the thanks button.
@deernet Did what @BigCountry907 shared help you fix your phone?

Unzip the download.
Copy the 0PM3IMG.zip that is inside to a SD Card.
Put the sdcard in the phone.
Boot the phonr into download mode.
Hit volume up key to flash the ruu.
You will most likely need to do it 2 times.
Possibly more. If the phone reboots without flashing everything do it again.
You will see when it flashes system files. If it flashes system it is good to go.
Reboot the phone.
Enjoy the Fresh Out of the Box phone.

I am having the same problem. I followed your directions exactly, but I receive a failed message. I've tried several times without success. Is there any thing else I can try?

I also received a failed message -2,19. Any help would be appreciated. Wondering if maybe the zip is just corrupted as I downloaded it with ADM?

If I remember right, I booted to fastboot and typed 'fastboot oem RebootRuu' (without quotes) to get to the RUU flashing fastboot partition, then I flashed the smaller hboot ruu zip first, and the other large ruu 2nd.
I used the file downloaded by htc sync manager and cancelled the software update before it finished decompressing the archive.
I sold the one I was using but I have another at the house. I need to order a battery and screen for it and then I'll record a step by step of my method. Might be a week or so
(Sorry for the edits; I forgot the quote)
Thank you. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Well, I still haven't ordered anything for it. Taxes are coming back late, so I'm flat broke, but I haven't forgot about you. I remember it taking me a few tries to get the order just right, but once I figured it out the phone updated like butter. I had ended up soft-bricking it using the bootloader unlock method provided by @BigCountry907.
Have you gone back and tried it again? A lot of times I'll put a phone up in the box and come back to it and have it done in minutes if I just leave it alone for a while.
Will download zip file again and try it again. You never know. Can't hurt!
Any direction as to how to flash my phone if it keeps failing with my previously stated errors? I think it has a virus and it is acting possessed and generally driving me crazy. Thanks in advance!
