PLZ HELP!!!

If you can still start in Download mode (Home key + Volume Down key + Power key) or in Recovery mode (Home key + Power key) it's not hard-bricked so it can be revived.
Options to try: start in recovery and wipe data/factory reset (recommended when changing roms), reflash stock rom with odin and do same as above...

I dont know where to get stock rom?????

Search for a multifile ROM (for Gio) and flash it with ODIN

flash with odin.

I am Going to try it .... Lets hope evry thing goes alrite.........

I also bricked my phone 2days before and rcovered.dont worry.
You need to get odin flashable firmware files.
My suggesion is to google with your phones no like s5360
... Etc try googling PDA_S5560...DDK etc etc
They will be group of files with extension .tar and filename starts in my case with PDA_S5360....,MODEM_S 5360....,BOOT_S....
Etc. best luck

Hello and a sorry for my english
I've done something very very stupid. In the ROM Manager I choose, by mistake, in the Flash ClockworkMod Recovery a different phone than my one and then I push the Backup Current Rom option.In that moment my galaxy gio crashed... it is completely off, I ve try to push all the buttons it is really dead.
What can I do?
There is a very small space on the bottom of the phone where I can push with something to restart it?
Help please

Rom Manager author should really get those CWM recoverys out of that list ... lately a lot of ppl flash wrong CWM`s and brick their phones
No, u don`t have any "hidden button to reset it "
Try to get your battery out, leave it alone for 5 mins or so, and then put battery in and press Volume Down + Home button + power button same time and see if u can get to Downloading mode
If that works, try to flash a stock rom with Odin, there are some tutorials here use the search button

Rom managers recovery for Gio is outdated (4.X.X), better use recovery 5.X.X by Phiezx

Install RSDLite on your PC. Use WinRAR or 7zip to decompress the. gz file you downloaded (there is an sbf file inside - the clean Froyo firmware you want to flash - and save it somewhere.
Take your Defy and press the power and volume up button and release after some seconds so that you enter the bootloader mode (you see some white text on black ground).
Connect the phone via USB with your PC with RSDLite running.
In RSDLite click the button with the three dots and open the sbf file you extracted.
Hit the start button. Now it starts flashing the firmware, takes a couple of minutes.
When it's done the phone reboots and is running a Motorola Froyo firmware (not rooted or something, it can't really be called a ROM). If you want you can root, install CWM again etc and put your ROM in it again.
Almost always when your Defy is doesn't boot anymore or is somehow broken softwarewise, you can use this method to repair it.

thank you for your time.

If you want the recovery menu you need to install 2ndinit. http://goo.gl/5P89P
Open the app and install the recovery menu with it, then reboot (some say it is safer to reboot even two times). You get the blue LED after powering the phone on, you have to press volume down then. There you can get to the custom recovery and wipe data, cache, install zips from SD etc.

After all this stuffs doing write I turn of my phone and press VOL UP + POWER to try enter in CWM
And my phone apper the fastboot mode, so I guess the CWM dont work well.
I enter in the official website of CWM and download the last CWM for my phone, but this file is [.img] and all the tutorials saying to put the .zip file in SDcad and try to install.
So, I dont wanna brick my phone again, but somebody can tell me how I install the CWM without apps, from maybe fastboot or adb using the .img file?!

Man, this question must be in Q&A section. To enter recovery isn't with the VOL UP, is the VOL DOWN. If doesn't work install rom manager or titanium backup (i prefer this) to enter in recovery directly from the system. Use the TWRP that is in the freegee app, is better than CWM in my opinion

Sorry man, for the wrong post.. some admin can change?
About your awnser, VOL DOWN (dont do nothing, my phone blink LG logo and like turn it off, and return with lg logo again.... ) do this until I stop press the combination buttons.
And using your tip (install rom manager) I've installed but if something gone wrong in flash the custom rom I can't enter in CWM and gonna need flash original firmware again and do all the stuffs to return my phone works again.
And I get lost with TWRP cause first time I installed appear to me a password... I never had a password, so I deleted all and install again..
Any other tips? to install CWM.img not zip?

Don't worry bro haha. That's odd, I've just installed the twrp recovery from freegee and use the "restart device" from Titanium to enter recovery and don't appear a password try the simples passwords (1,2,3,4...1,2,3,4,5 or another similar) but generally don't ask for password

Do you have an sdcard? You could always sideload a Rom too if you have a computer available. Here's a link its for Sprint HTC one m8 but it'll work the same for other variants its not device specific.

The same problem as here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/soft-bricked-htc-one-m8-os-t2858680

the screen is stuck on htc logo nothing is happing now its just glowing...i cant connect it with pc i have sd card inside but what should i do with sd card ?? how do i go inside the bootloader or recovry ??? please help

To get in boot loader hold power and volume up until the screen goes off. Release them and quickly press and hold power and volume down until boot loader shows up. Then select recovery and press power. It should go into your custom recovery. You should download a Rom and put it on your sdcard then flash it through recovery.

thanks man its installing thanks alot if i have some problem i write here again thanks thanks thanks still instlling rom

In the future, there is normally no need to go into Advanced Wipemenu in TWRP. You will see on the main Wipe screen, it says the default wipe is data, cache and Dalvik is all that is usually needed. It says that for a reason!
If you do choose Advanced, double check before wiping, and only wipe if you know what the result is going to be! For instance, lots of folks wipe /system, than ask "why don't I have an OS now?"

No problem I'm glad I could help?

Setup not installed ? Please be clear. So, you got your lock screen, right ? And when you unlock it, nothing shows up ? At this, point, which rom did you flash ? Stock ? Custom ? Carrier Stock ? If its completely stock, try re-installing the rom again,by wiping the system partition in the twrp recovery. If the problem persists, try flashing a stock launcher like the S4 or S5, that are to be flashed from the recovery.

You flashed a 4.4.3 ROM base on a 4.4.2 firmware maybe ??

How to Enter Recovery Mode on LG G Pro

shutdown it down - turn off the phone wait few secs before going to next step
hold volume up button while holding power button also
when lg logo appear release/unpress power button just for a sec or two and then press and hold it back
Done
if its not working, it must be, u dont have recovery installed
use freegee to install one

hi
I dont understand
I try alot off time but dont secsuss

Assuming that the phone's power is off:
Hold down volume up button, then push the power button and hold it down. Count to 4 and stop holding the power button, but keep holding the volume up button. You should see the lg logo and then your recovery 5 ~ 7 seconds afterwards. Btw, which recovery are you using?

Custom recovery?
Is there a way to install a custom recovery on this phone? I read conflicting reports. I'm on 4.4.2 rooted and would to make a back up of my system, add zips, etc.

Have you try freegee in the play store? It installs the older version of cwm or twrp, but it's a start. Once you install the custom recovery, you can try flashing the newer version such as Philz cwm or newer version of twrp.

thanks
i do all this but no chances to enter into recovery
can help me with a video for that method

check if u have recovery mode installed
get FreeGee
and boot to it

I tried that before and got error messages. Some people say it worked and some say they had to wipe everything and it still did not work. Maybe the newer version works as I tried this 2 months ago.

Are you rooted?

i'll try to help u
first just make sure that your device is rooted, download Optimus G Pro Custom recovery (try to search on google, i found many links last time i download it), install that .apk on your device and then run it, choose flash recovery, and then choose reboot recovery. you will have recovery now. hope this helps. :angel:

Heyy! I wanna install twrp and then install cm12 nightly but I've read on other threads that flashing twrp directly will brick my phone and I'll have to install cwm first then cwm touch then twrp from there but on another thread it tells me to directly install twrp from freegee on stock JB.
Can anyone explain this to me? It's really confusing and I wanna know if flashing twrp will brick my phone. Im on stock kk but ill go back to JB and try it. Someone tell me if thats a good idea?

While you're on stock ROMs, just use Philz Touch. But if you ever go to like CyanogenMod or any other non-stock ROM. Flash that ROM with Philz Touch, then flash official TWRP. After, you can stay on TWRP once running a custom ROM.
