BRICKED??!!

Guys, I think I may have bricked my phone. I've been rooting for a while and I know this is usually impossible. But I'm having major issues
I tried to flash an updated version of gummynex, so I flashed super_wipe_lite and then the ROM, and it aborted the installation. So I tried to mount USB storage in clockworkmod, which of course failed because there is no sd card. I rebooted, and I got the blank google screen with unlock. If I reboot holding power and volume down, the only option I get is start. I can't get ADB to connect in either this mode, or in the standard google logo screen!
WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS!? Thanks!

Wrong forum. Anyways, you're not out of luck, ypur bootloader is fine so I'm sure there's some Oden related restore for the nexus. Try the stickies.

Edited: So you can get to the bootloader, but from there you can't use fastboot? Like its not showing in fastboot devices?

wow I'm dumb. I forgot you had to hold volume up + down to get the options to boot to recovery. I'm in CWM-touch and installing another ROM I had ont here so I can boot it up from my pc, copy the new rom again to my sdcard, and flash it. Unless there's a way to get ADB to work without installing a rom? then I could just push the new rom?

If you're already softbricked I would recommend just getting the factory files, use fastboot to flash back to stock and just start over again, if you had already used super wipe than its not like you need to save any data, and its always better to be safe than sorry.
Edit: if you can get to recovery and have another rom or nand then you'll be fine regardless.

In CWM recovery the ADB daemon is started so you can use ADB to push a new ROM to /data/media to flash via CWM.

There's the ODIN files my friend. It's like 4 threads up. Do what everyones saying and use these to get back to stock.

+1 on this. I had to do it when I first got the phone. Boot into CWM recovery and then adb works to push a new ROM.

You don't have to Odin back to stock. Let me guess, you're using the new touch recovery?
Boot into bootloader and flash the regular recovery through fastboot. PM me if you need any help.

Tried adb? If yes congats you are the 1st who achieved to brick gnex. Except someone else have a crazy idea!

Should i comment your post??

flash the stock images http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html
everyone should know how to flash it manually with fastboot..you probably need to flash only kernel and system
the common user error is that when you get a bootloop, people went crazy and start doing eveything...the next time when you got a bootloop, you SIMPLY have to go in recovery and restore the backup.
EDIT: what the error with fasboot? the pic is too small to read

He lost cwm as well so he could't go to recovery and restore. If he can't root/unroot via fastboot i doubt he can flash stock image. I hope he can.

he lost cwm after tring everything, before that he probably can

I make the cwm work but i don't know how to flash the stock image... If i restore my backup i get a bootloop.

Go to fastboot on the phone. Plug it in. Extract the stock factory image somewhere. Open command prompt, navigate to wherever you have GNex toolkit's fastboot binary.
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system.img
There you go. Start the phone.

So it's not really bricked after all..
Try to restore the google image with the gnex toolkit by putting the zip file in the correct folder (read instruction).

I tryed with Gnex ToolKIt read what i post the problem is that in fastboot and Gnex ToolKit i receive this error FAILED<status read failed<too many link>> maybe now you understand me. The only way to flash something is in fastboot in cwm i can cwm work to navigate to wipe but when i want to flash something it restarts.I have cwm 5.0.0.2 something like this.

Try installing via fastboot or cwm a stock or aokp again after wiping everything of course... if you have cwm there is no prob.

Man when i try to flash something in cwm it starts and after reboot it self.

OK, start from the start, when you plug your phone in to the computer in bootloader and type "fastboot devices" does it show up?
If it does then you have no problems.
If not then you may have driver problems.
If it does show up just flash the images one by one and everything will be fine.
The google stock factory images that is.

Motorola Defy+ Bricked

Hi,
Today iÍ totaly bricked my Defy+ after unsuccessful installing CaynogenMod CMX 10 (it stuck on boot animation). After that I tried with CaynogenMod bootmenu to install again 2nd-boot and 2nd-init to boot to stock ROM. But after that I can just boot to stock recovery menu and Android bootmenu (by CM team). In this bootmenu from CM I can just to choose default bootloader. No other functionality works, everytime I choose for example: Recovery -> Custom recovery it appears this error message: No such file or directory...... So I moved to RDSlite, but my phone is not recognized by Windows or RDSLite. And battery is not charging, only blink white LED when is on computer USB. And battery is under 30%. Don't know what to do now...

I take it uv installed all the drivers needed?

Yes I have installed official drivers from Motorola. I used them for SuperOneClick root.

Are you on bootloader mode while connecting the Defy+ to your PC? This is how it looks when on bootloader mode.

I have a similar question I'm afraid.
To update my Defy+ from CM7 to CM10 I wiped all there had to be wiped. When I got to "install zip from SDcard" I found out I had placed the wrong SDcard into the phone. Perhaps I shouldn't have done this but I did, I turned off the phone, changed the SDcard and tried to continue the process.
Unfortunately I can't get to the boot menu anymore, there's just the "M" logo. When I try to reacht the "old" bootmenu (reboot with volume down) the phone hangs at the Android robot with an exclamation mark next to it.
Is there a way solution?

I never seen this screen. How can I get to this? I just know how to get to bootloader with pressed volume down and power button. And in this it's not worked for me.

@fido1828
I guess that's the stock recovery. Try pressing the options soft key or the vol- or vol+ while in that screenIf that happens, you can wipe data and cache and check again.

You are doing it wrong buddy. You need to press Vol+ and then the power button.

Thank you, that helped, a bit. Got to the stock recovery and was able to wipe all except Dalvik. Perhaps there's no need to wipe dalvik again, it was already wiped before and no app has run since.
However, when I try to install CM10 the installation gets aborted because the signature verification fails. The zip files have been put on the SDcard while the card was in the PC. Will that be it? Is there a way to get them on the SDcard using the Defy+ now?

You can flash only ZIPs signed by Motorola via Stock Recovery. To flash a CM ROM, you need to get CWM on board. For that you need to install 2ndinit. If stock ROM boots successfully, root it and install 2ndinit and then download latest recovery to get CWM.

Unfortunately the phone won't boot. After the full wipe there's nothing left to boot I'm afraid. Is there any other way?

The only way out now is flashing SBF via RSDLite.

ok. RSDlite I used to install CM7, it's still on the pc. But excuse my ignorance, what's SBF?

You used RSDLite to install CM7!!!
You should have read the beginners guide before trying this.

Sorry, I did read that, understood part of it and managed to install CM7 without any problem.
Now that I re-read parts of it I understand what an SBF is, but still I can't get my PC to see the Defy+. As soon as the battery is placed the phone starts to boot, holding the volume button and subsequently both volume buttons puts it in recovery mode. But than, what can I do to make the computer/RSDlite see the phone?

In that case, try keeping the vol+ pressed, then insert the battery, it should enter to bootloader mode.

Don't enable auto-reboot in odin and when it says ok, do the three combination (home+vol up+power) until 5ou fell that it is rebooted release power button then you have he new recover and flash the rootuniversalthing.zip and you are done or on philz advanced cmw edition you can root by going to philz settings and re-root

I can just not straight after sending TWRP through odin its back to normal again just cant get twrp to work

Download twrp, boot into download mode, attach usb, open odin, put md5 file, check f.reset time only, start and when it says ok in the box, hold home+power+vol up until screen flickers release power button but keep the others and then you have to root your device via a zip file I think ot's called universal root....zip idk exactly, hpwever if that doesn't work try to flash cmw then flash twrp as a zip file and wala.
If this didn't work, put your tab in microwave set it for 10 mins then take microwave and put in an oven and set it for another 10 mins, when it's done you will have a clean new tab good for cooking eggs

1.Please post from where are you download the recovery.
2. Try an factory reset from recovery and flash the blackhawk kernel.
If this all not help, flash a Stockrom and try all steps again, but I prefere CWM or Philztouch as recovery , no TWRP.

Do you have any data on the phone (apps, etc)? Did it go into a bootloop exactly after you flashed the new ROM, or did you manage to boot it?

Turn on phone with volume down+power to boot into bootloader; using fastboot unlock bootloader as you did first. Then you can do anything, I.E. flash full stock factory image and start over if you want.
Never lock the bootloader if you are not completely stock.

You can't get it to boot back into fastboot?

No, I just flashed the PureNexus ROM & gapps, and have not install any apps. Then I reboot to the bootloader and locked the bootloader, when I reboot to the system, I found it go into a bootloop, I have wait 30min, still bootloop. I connected it to the PC, use "adb reboot bootloader", tried to unlock the bootloader, but failed, because I have not turned on the "oem unloclk" in the system.

Did you set up a password before locking the bootloader? Try putting in your password.
If not, I found this reddit thread, see what happens in TWRP when you type: default_password
