Hey all,
So a few months back i got the screen changed at my local store, they did a ****ty job and the volume buttons have always been sticky, today they finally got completely stuck so i held down the power button and powered off the phone so i could try and mash they free (probably a bad idea but what else could i do?).
Got the buttons alittle free but now when i went to turn it on its stuck in a boot loop only getting to the white htc logo, if i hold down the vol dwn button i get a silver htc logo instead and occasionally i get the red charge notification led to come on too but then it goes back into its loop.
Somehow after hours of playing with the buttons ive managed to get it into the bootloader screen, the fisrt time i tried recovery and it sent me back into the loop. so is there anything else i can do at this point. i desperately need this phone for work tomorrow. Will the download mode or bootloader option help me? it took like an hour of button mashing to get this screen up so i dont want to waste it.
If I can just get the phone started again i dont care about the volume for now i can get it fixed later with a new screen i just really need my phone.
Sorry for the spelling its 11pm here and im rushing
TIA!
Joel
If you're still in the recovery screen, try to restore a backup.
If not, try "adb reboot-recovery" from an adb shell in command prompt. I had about 3 seconds with adb access with the blue text at the top during the boot loop. This got me into recovery mode to restore a NANDROID.
Sounds like you might have a stuck button though?

Whats happened is my phone was running abit slow earlier and the volume keys were not working with the music player so i decided to restart it. Now whenever i boot the phone up it boots straight into bootloader and it doesnt respond to both volume keys and the power button. The only way i can switch it off is by removing the battery.
I have tried booting the phone into recovery using adb, and i get the error device not found. Ive also tried booting it and holding the power button down but it still again boots into bootloader.
I seriously need to fix the phone as its got info stored thats important, so whoever gives steps that bring the phone back to life, Ill be donating money to them.
Thanks
You can't use adb but fastboot.
try to find some tuto on google. You can flash all with fastboot.
Sorry I'm not familiar enough to help more, just an idea.
If can boot fastboot can try to install a new recovery image

If its going straight to hboot with no help from you(ie not pressing button combo) the your volume key is probably stuck. Take off the battery cover and GENTLY try to loosen the volume rocker to get it unstuck
Do you have CWM?

I think your phone volume switch press continuous. So its starts bootloader every time. Real Solution to repair your phone (Maybe it's liguid demage maybe main flex)
Hello all,
My Nexus was simply sitting on my table doing nothing when it rebooted, then boot looped. After ten minutes of this I pulled the battery and attempted to go into recovery, but when I held down the button the phone vibrated but there was nothing simply a blank screen. Waited for about ten and decided to once again pull the battery. Powered on normally and the phone stays at the google screen. I've been running cm9 stable for about three weeks with not a single problem. BTW I've googled the hell out of this problem but everything came back to getting the phone into back to recovery or the fastboot screen which I cannot. Anyone tell me if this can be fixed, or does it need to have an "accident".
Thanks
Are you sure, you can't boot into fastboot (and then recovery)?
Try holding vol down + power, and if that is unsuccessful then try volume down + volume up + power
Can you see the phone in command prompt window?
So, I tried to restore a backup from TWRP. During the process, the system and cache were restored fine, but couldn't restore the data (for some reason, it said failed), so I figured it's alright, I'll just have to install all the apps again, no big deal. But, after I clicked the "reboot system", the screen went off and never turn back on.
I can't get in bootloader screen in any way, I haven't tried the Vol up + power button for 10s, and the vol down + power button, and the 3 button all together... Nothing works.
When I press the power button normally, nothing happens, not even the Htc logo screen.
When I plug it in, it only shows the battery charging icon. So I tried the buttons combination again (coz I thought at least the screen turns on now), but still, nothing happens, just the screen switch between black and the charging icon.
So, I left it charging overnight, and tried the buttons combination again, nothing works still.
Now I have no idea what to do, can anyone please help me?

It sounds like you hard bricked your phone. Try using this guide youtu . be/ rpA71FXddyU[/ but Im not sure it will work.
Only thing what you need is that computer recognize your phone, because when It doesnt then you should take your phone to local phone repair.

You can't brick this phone flashing a ROM. If you were just stuck on the screen, without knowing how to reboot (and/or how to get into bootloader), you can force a reboot by:
1) Holding Power + Vol up until the screen goes black to reboot (in a "stuck" condition, you may need to hold the buttons about a minute).
2) The moment the screen goes black to reboot, let go of the buttons; and only hold vol down. Don't let go of vol down, until the bootloader screen appears.
3) If you fail to get into bootloader (stuck on HTC logo screen again), its virtually always due to getting the timing wrong; either started pressing vol down too late, or let go of it too early. Just repeat the process, until you get it right.
I am searched this forum for about the past four nights trying to figure out what is going on with my tablet. Long story short my boyfriend could not figure out the lock screen code while I was asleep and restarted the tablet I guess in download mode and it was stuck there. It had the little green guy and said downloading do not do anything. When the battery finally died it started to reboot but then just kept going in the boot loop. I was finally able to get into it and it will boot up for the most part but the three buttons at the bottom won't work the back button the home key and the recent apps key. They don't light up even though they're set to be lit all the time now. I took out the SD card which had evidently become completely erased when he was doing something to it. Also it doesn't recognize that the SIM card is installed although it is installed and I made sure it made the click sound when pushed in. Now when I press the power button volume up plus home key to try to go into recovery mode it doesn't do anything. I was able to boot it in safe mode but that didn't help me either way.
Any advice?

He's mucked something right up.
I suggest putting it back in download mode and flashing the latest firmware with odin.
