have you tried to press back button and then power to enter fastboot?
i did...but nothing happen
I have had then when i messed up rooting my phone, its not bricked. your recovery is messed up, follow this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6710081&postcount=2
if step 2 does not do anything then just hold volume down and power then navigate to recovery.
keep trying till you can boot recovery it will work, thats what i did
Did you try running the RUU update while you are in this mode?
The USB port should be in hboot-usb mode.

Koedil,
Did you ever manage to fix your Desire? If you did, then how did you do it?
I have the same problem and am tearing out what little hair I have.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rich
I figured out a fix
If you haven't already fixed your Desire, then after some trial and error I came up with this fix (post #5) that worked for me.
Read it ....Hope our xda be better
Please help! I've been trying to find answers and trying to fix my G2 this whole week and, to even add how much im working/reading on how trying to fix it, i even stayed up a WHOLE night reading about things but still no-go
G2 is semi-bricked because my brother was going to permanently root the G2 and right when the process finished, is when the phone was semi-bricked because he "forgot" a step (great -_- human error)
Just a few things:
Yeah i can go into recovery (VOL down + Power Button) but, im a noob at recovery things, so i dont know how or what to use or do like i said, i've researched a lot and done the steps that i read online and still nothing, so i rather get answers/help from great people in here (i heard this forum is really smart/good at Android stuff)
please help!

explain your semi bricked status... how do you know its semi bricked? which step did he miss?
also you be better off asking in guide how to recover semi bricked phone rather than asking in Q & A....experienced mods usually follow that thread and reply to ppl who have queries
it wont go into the Android OS, it just stays stuck at HTC. No further. And he didnt tell me, but he watched a video on youtube.
and ohhh darn -_- stupid me

here is the link to the desire z /G2 wiki...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision
go straight to the rooting section and try to find out which method was he using to root your phone... when you narrow that down try to find which step he missed.....when all thats done than either post here exactly which method was he using and which step he missed.....or post in the semi bricked page.....
right now the most current recommended method is using Gfree...
also try to see if you have access to your recovery and if clockworkmod recovery is installed or not....
for that take out your battery and put it back in.... hold volume down and power button....
it will boot into boot loader
give it few seconds to display that "waiting for SD card Pb10.img not found"
than use volume down button to navigate to recovery and use power button as click selection..... if it boots up into clockworkmod recovery than you have custom recovery installed
Yeah i dont have CWM installed, just checked. And what my brother told me is that he was "temporary rooted" then he tried to "perm root", but actually, he didnt go to youtube, he tried to perm root using the VISIONary method.

check wiki for htc vision ... for how to fix errors during rooting.....
also if you wanna root gfree is recommended software lately..... check wiki to confirm.....
also try factory reset.... by turning phone off... than holding power button and volume up and down button .... i think.....confirm via wiki
Well i also cant do any adb steps because adb doesnt detect my G2 (although it detects it when im in recovery (the menu with a phone and red exclamation point) but it says its offline) i can only use fastboot
and btw my G2 is S-ON
and i have done factory resets and nothing
I'm not as experianced as a lot of the but have you tryed the pc10img via fast boot? That might work scince everything is stock on your phone
/edit have you gone the the adb guides it took me a few times but I finally got it...adb looks the best way to go

yeah but when i use PC10IMG it just says main version is older (or something like that) and says update failed.
and yeah i have seen tons of ADB guides, but still doesnt work what guide did you use? how'd you do it?

it might be because you tried the 1.12 verison pc10img.zip and your phone came with updated 1.19 version
PC10IMG_Vision_TMOUS_1.19.531.1_Radio_12.21.60.09b _26.02.01.15_M2_release_149459_signed.zip
try this one by putting in your sd card. your phone should flash it and it shouldnt say version is older...
download from here
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Vision
when you put it in sd card rename it to just PC10img.zip and reboot into bootloader and when it asks you to flash. let it flash
I'll try that right now, but I think I did use the 1.19 one but can't recall.
I'll edit this post to tell you if it works
EDIT:It still says Main Version is Older...you think i need to use the 1.12 one?
BTW here is my G2 info (radio version etc.)

Welcome all Huawei Acend G300 users, this is a full guide prepared by me which will help you unlock your bootloader and not only that but it will help you gain root access for system modifications and root required applications.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Keep in mind, this method is not confirmed working if you're running android 2.3.x [ Gingerbread ]. So do not use this if you're running it. Also dual sim ones aren't supported from what I see it tempers with the phone, I haven't tested it but many have reported it doesn't work on dual sims.
Lets get started shall we? Firstly I have gathered up some useful resources that will help you get started. Make sure you read this guide first, from top to bottom. Then continue. As you must have a clear understanding on what you are going to attempt. If you have any queries don't hesitate to ask on the thread itself.

I have performed these exact steps and have successfully unlocked my bootloader and rooted the phone. So if you're worried. Don't be. After attempting this I haven't noticed any issues either.
Okay, first of all you will need to download Unlockbootloader ---> View attachment unlockbootloader.zip
Once you have downloaded the said .zip extract the .exe file inside the .zip to your desktop.
Continue by turning on USB debugging on your G300. if its already switched on then skip the part below..
Go into Settings>Developer Options and tick the USB Debugging option.
Once its switched on, plug your phone to the computer using a USB cable.
So far you've downloaded Unlockbootloader, have switched USB debugging on, and your phone is connected to your PC.
Now run the .exe file you have just extracted. Click "Root" and let it do everything, it will prompt up with a few warnings saying don't use your keyboard because CMD is running.
Once the setup finishes, your phone should be rooted.
Head into the app drawer, and if you see "SuperUser" you're now officially rooted.
Reboot your phone to finalize the rooting and exploits.
Ok, now for the bootloader.
Once your phone is on, and connected again to the PC with debugging mode on, run the .exe file again and this time click "Unlock BootLoader".
Wait for it to do its job, once done reboot again and you now have a Stock Rooted and Bootloader unlocked ICS phone.

Hi, assuming you have installed the g300 adb drivers, once the device is hanging on the boot logo and you connect the usb cable. You need to wait for windows to fully the load the adb driver before you use the unlockbootloader.exe program.

What you have to do is,turn on debug, then power off device fully by pulling off battery then putting it back in, now you must power on by golding the volume down button and power button at the same time, this should get it to be stuck on the huawei logo screen, now plug in your USB cable and wait for you PC to detect the phone and it should automatically install the devices driver's, one its done the now open the folder and run .BAT files, If you are experiencing problems here's a link for another guide : View
Hi,
After the "Unlock BootLoader", my phone doesn't boot. When the logo appears it stars to reboot again and never goes beyond that.
Any ideas ? Have I killed it ?

Turn ur phone completely off. By pulling out battery then apply the battery again.
Now hold volume down and power button and it should be in boot loader mode. If ur logo is stuck well this is in boot loader if not and it continues well.. idk

Hello krishneelg3,
I have tried a method on http://huaweig300.com but I'm stuck with the problem.
Installing USB drivers/Root/Backup IMEI went OK. Then by mistake I skipped the Step on page 5. Check Baseband and kept continued by Bootloader & ClockworkMod all went OK until the step 10. On page 6. After executing BootloaderG300.exe the phone rebooting cyclically, My operator screen appear for a approximately one second and the phone restarts again. How to resolve the problem and is there any hope to return to official ROM?
Thanks in advance, I really appreciate it.

What was ur baseband and were u running gingerbread?
If u r on official ics then this guide is for u, if not notify me.
PS : If you are running Gb I refer you to look into this guide, as long as your phone can boot into bootloader your fine, and I'm sure it will boot into Bloader mode : http://www.modaco.com/topic/353386-how-to-root-your-huawei-ascend-g300-for-windows-mac-and-linux/
Thanks krishneelg3,
my baseband is 109808, and I'm running GB.
The problem is that I don't know if I'm in a Bootloader mode when I see a pink screen?
When I press VOLUME DOWN + POWER it starts same as when I press POWER, first logoo (in my case picture of my operator) it lasts for about few seconds, then phone reboots and start doing it cyclically.
The other thing is that, when I press VOLUME DOWN + VOLUME UP + POWER, it then turns into a pink screen.
In that state (pink screen), when I plug in my phone to my PC, PC recognize my phone without reading sd card or internall memory.
So what should I do?
Thanks man, really appreciate it!
Guys,
I solved the problem.
I've just followed the instructions in step 5. on the site http://huaweig300.com and put a new update.app (1 KB) and copy it to the dload. After that I've used main dload (ICS folder, aprox abot 600 MB) and everything updated and installed successfully.
Thanks.
p.s. if anyone has or had the same problem, do not hesitate to ask.
hi all
sorry to hijack the thread
I have just got my son an ascend 300 which is locked to vodafone
its on android 2.3.6
the build number is
u881v100r001c02b892
i have a download of HDU88151079V100R001C00B934 which is the ICS but i dont think that will work for my build
ideally i want ICS but dont mind too much waiting.
but i do want to be able to get of all the bloatware.
I guess i need to root to do this.
the link to the modaco site is down and it seems this is for those lucky enough to be on ICS
would i be better off upgrading to ICS then following the method above or would i be better finding a method to root under gb (If so where)
many thanks

OK get the official pics update b927* must be that build.
After its done downloading, extract its contents to your memorycard of the phone.
Make sure the update.app is in the root of SD card .
Then power off phone, remove battery re apply battery and hold the three buttons "volume up, volume down and the power button" until a screen pops up it will then install the stock ics once its done it'll reboot twice.
If only one it doesnt matter.
Setup the phone. Now to install b934 or newer versions use cwm for dazzozos repacks or the update force method. But I advice u to look for help on modaco. Thanks.
Modaco name : krishang3
krishneelg3
Thanks for that by b927* you are referring to a different version of HDU88151079V100R001C00B934 ?
where would i be able to get this from?
so this would give me the stock ics
what is the advantage of then installing HDU88151079V100R001C00B934 ?
Thanks

Your on gingerbread so your baseband Is 109808 and if u flash any b934+ stock using the combinations say goodbye to your phone. I did that to my brothers and it bricked.
So to get to ice you must install b927 version of ics then your baseband will change to the new one *2030* now you can flash any b934+ stocks because you now have the new baseband.
Go to modaco and enter the G300 forums and look at the first dew pages all the info and guides you need. Procedure is simple.

Aha, did you use the wrong recovery? I'm gonna take a blind-shot and think that you did. ;/ So maybe you cannot flash CM on it. It is common mistake. - What you are seeing right now is the stock LG charging pre-system. I think you have wiped the image from the system, so it shows you the RAW data instead.
Well, let it charge to 20-25%
Then do this:
1. Unplug the tablet from charger and let it turn fully off.
2. Press and HOLD Volume Down + Power Button.
3. On LG Logo appear, ONLY release Power key, still holding Volume Down. Then quickly press and hold Power and Volume UP also. So now you hold all three buttons. So you need three fingers.
This should take you to "Factory Reset", but when you have custom recovery, you can press Power and you will come to custom recovery. I think you can mount the external SD card and then flash a new recovery. Go find PhilZ recovery in the Original Android Development sub-forum here. You just flash the Zip inside of TWRP. When that is done, reboot and repeat the steps on the top of this post, then flash CM.
Keep on trying the key combo, it is a bit tricky, but it works. While you try and get to recovery, download PhilZ CWM touch and prepare the SD card on your computer, if you have the option.
Good luck.

I think you can mount the external SD card and then flash a new recovery. Go find PhilZ recovery in the Original Android Development sub-forum here. You just flash the Zip inside of TWRP. When that is done, reboot and repeat the steps on the top of this post, then flash CM.
Keep on trying the key combo, it is a bit tricky, but it works. While you try and get to recovery, download PhilZ CWM touch and prepare the SD card on your computer, if you have the option.
Good luck.

thanks for your reply.
yes I did use the wrong recovery, as a matter of fact I didnt know which one to use so I choose one randomly
the bad thing I did what u said. and nothing happened .. still stuck at the lg logo and Is not charging anymore...
Keep on trying the key combo. Hold power + volume down, when logo comes, release power, still hold volume down, then also hold power and volume up, so you hold all 3 buttons. But never release volume down.

No custom recovery. Hn, we must do another thing then, wait a second. I must find a text and copy it to you from another post, brb. We must go to download mode instead when no recovery.

Here is quote from someone else I found in another place but shutdown the thread without thinking.
I use the download mode to install the original official rom.
1. Download the LG MOBILE SUPPORT TOOL by this link:http://www.lg.com/us/support-mobile/lg-V500-White
2. install the software in computer, Plug in USB cable with computer, Open the software LG MOBILE SUPPORT TOOL.
3. Turn off Pad and unplug.
4. press hold both volume up and volume down, Then plug in usb cable, And then pad is in downlaod mode
5. USB driver will be insatlled automatically
6. In LG MOBILE SUPPORT TOOL, click option---.country and language-OK, then click option--upgrade recovery
7. It will installe original official rom automatically.
8. After about 1.5 hours, The pad will be installed the last official room.
^ This is a quote and now I shut down the thread, sorry, don't know who said it, just got stoked when I saw it.

What? You got recovery booted but it restarted itself again to LG screen? If you can, just stay in recovery.

Go into http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2551499 and scroll down to downloads.
You are on stock ROM, meaning you wanna go and check in your system settings - about tablet for the software information. Choose one of the three: V50010a, V50010c or V500e. Download the right one for your device. Then a few lines lower, download "Loki" from the link.
Enable developer settings in your Tablet and follow the adb instructions in the thread. This is the TWRP you need to flash a KitKat rom. The older versions will fck up your device. - Remember to root before you begin!

hey man thanks for ur reply.
so far we are In the same page
I downloaded v50010a which Is my devIce then loki zip
but I have no Idea what Is cdm and adb I tried to open cmd and run thoose commands but I getting eroor adb not support something like that.
although I download adb.exe and fastbook and Installed It.
Is It any way to flash recovery though my tablet like goo apps or rom manager ?
thanks.
Go here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2553192
Read first post, donwload and enable developer options on Tablet.
Then download and run the .bat file. Then you get root.
Then you go download the V50010a.lok file and you rename the file to V50010a.img instead.
Then you go to market on phone and search for "Flashify", and you flash the .img in there. (I don't use it, but many people does.)
I recommend you study a bit on adb and fastboot for another time, since if anything crashes, adb is the way to go. Not Flashify. But for now Flashify GUI should be fine. Just remember the root first.
This is the last question I will help you with since all of your questions has been in other threads and you should be able to find them in the forums.

Happy to help, see you on the forums.
So I have bricked my phone for the 3rd time, the last 2 times I had to have someone with an authorized account fix it for me cost was 30EUR. Sucks. I have read every post on here and was just going to toss this thing in the trash after flashing and bricking it last night. This morning I came across a thread claiming if you used the SP Flash Tool with some other files that it would work, it didn't for me but in the process I found another thread talking about holding the volume down key while flashing, it did work. Here are the steps and how did I brick it, I flashed the files from MEGATHREAD so preloader was in place, I had working and install TWRP and was in the process of flashing vendor and PE ROM from TWRP. The zip was corrupted and it wiped me out and before rebooting I got the No OS installed message but figured I would to a clean flash of the OEM image from fastboot. Nope it failed and I got the LED light with nothing else, no boot no fastboot and no recovery. Dead. Here is what I did someone please try this.
I am on a Ubuntu box with ADB and Fastboot installed for the system I assume Windows or MAC would work just have those tools working and installed you must or you wouldn't have bricked your phone. I have begonia_global_images_V11.0.6.0.PGGMIXM_20200108.0000.00_9.0_global ROM and I went to the image directory, and typed:
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot flash boot boot.img
When it was listed in fastboot devices I was like WHAT??? Sure enough it flashed it but do this right before you issue that command ITS IMPORTANT plug in the phone via USB and hold down the volume down key the phone will within a few seconds vibrate then hit the commands. Please see attached image you can see what I did. After that when I unplugged the phone it freaking booted into the OS and I had to set my phone up again but for the most part and this is weird my data was still intact, I don't care but it was nice. I really don't understand this phone at all but I hope others will try this and unbrick it would be awesome.

Thanks for sharing this. I've had a bricked rn8 pro for 3 weeks now and none of the other fixes worked for me. I'm looking forward to giving this a try when I get home from work. Perhaps I should've tried using my Kali box rather than windoze in my previous attempts.
I'll update with results if interested.
Hi, what exactly you did? Because I'm tired to test any possible method, I've tried disconnecting the battery, Press Volume - while try to flash, and now I'm waiting to prove the method that drain the battery adn then can connect and flash.
Did you flash with Ubuntu? It works? How can you do it If the phone can't enter to fastboot mode?
To what I understood you unlocked it 3 times and in one of those you updated the preloader?
Because if so. spflash unlocks it without asking for the happy account
Yup on Arch Linux and this worked fine

Made sure the device was off completely, held down VOL-DOWN while pluging in phone and had it show up in my fastboot devices. Reflashed the system via fastboot with the begonia_global_images_V11.0.2.0.PGGMIXM_20191201.0000.00_9.0_global system image (flash-all.sh)

You guys are NOT reading the method used, the battery isnt even removable on this phone follow the steps listed. You can't see anything happening on your phone just be at a terminal window HOLDING down the volume down key and type (oone handed or whatever) fastboot devices) it works I did it 3 times. Flash the boot.img and it will reboot and be fixed. I am tellng you FOLLOW instructions so many of you don't.

None of that matters and no the preloader was over written, the point here is it was hard bricked only got the white LED light, then I did exactly what I wrote and it saw the phone in fastboot and it wrote the boot.img and then it rebooted and worked. Period. Worked for me. Someone else tested it worked for them. Try it but follow the directions....

Sorry If I look like an annoying guy that don't understant, but litteraly i've tried that, I opened a Terminal window, typed fastboot devices, holding down volume -, but, IDK, how many time I need to press it;
I need to connect phone before hold the button, or vice versa?

Plug the phone in and hold it down the phone will vibrate keep holding it down and try flashing it continue to hold it down until the flash is successful. All I had to do was flash the boot image but others have flashed_all. Hit me on telegram if you need help @dcindallas

Ok, so, you only need to installed adb and fastboot right? no drivers or other things?
