bricked or not bricked

hi guys, following this giude ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20365299#post20365299) now, my dhd won't start. After flashing in bootloader mode, pd98img, phone ask to me to restart, then 3 minutes of vibration before start. I decided then, after booting, to install update proposed by HTC in software update;then the phone locks in the update screen without moving forward.What can I do now?tnxx.... can't access to bootloader
I'm not really clear on what you were trying to do here... You've gone through the process of downgrading to an older software version (seemingly successfully), then as soon as you've booted you've tried to upgrade back to where you were before you started?
Have you tried pulling the battery and then trying to boot into bootloader? Does adb recognise the device?

I think I've bricked my m8s. No longer boots into bootloader. Need help horridly.

Hi,
I either hard-bricked or soft-bricked my phone. It does not turn on, led indicator shows nothing. (It does not even load into bootloader). But when I connect it to my PC it shows up in device manager and let's me access phone's internal storage. So I'm wondering if it's a hard-brick and i'm screwed or do I still have any chances of recovering it?
What happened:
Firstly I was trying to go back to stock with a ruu from ruu.lalleman.net. I've checked my CID and got the correct one.
Then I relocked my phone, after that when I booted into bootloader it showed "RELOCKED" "SECURITY WARNING", but from now my phone wasn't able to boot normally, it booted straight into fastboot.
Now I tried loading the RUU on my sd card as explained here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc...lp-thread-htc-one-m8s-to-stock-howto-t3190238 But all I've got was an error saying "device halted due to Large Image update fail !"
I figured out that I couldn't install the original RUU because I had the update to MM.
At this point I was fiddling with my phone for a long time so I thought that it needed charging so I tried to boot into recovery just to charge it. It didn't work it booted straight back to fastboot.
Then I tried unlocking my relocked phone via htcdev just to flash any recovery to charge my phone. (this was probably the stupidest decision out of desperation ) After the last step of unlocking, when it asked me if I want to unlock the bootloader I selected "yes" and the phone just vibrated and went black.
If someone has any ideas on how to recover my phone, please help, I'm desperate. :crying:
nevermind, after trying for a while I somehow managed to do "adb reboot".

Bootloader locked and broken recovery

Hi, my phone has been dead for like 2 weeks now I even did a remote session in which they tried doing the MSMDownloadtool thing and it did nothing, no vibrations, black screen they just said its fully dead. fast forward to today it just started to react again.
When it tries to boot it boots straight to the OnePlus recovery mode and tells me to input a password, obviously I dont have one seen as its been set and if I click forget password it says it will format everything but it just turns off.
After a few boots I managed to get it to fastboot to realise the bootloader is now locked. the bootloader has always been unlocked since the first day I got it so it must of happened during the MSMDownloadTool process but the issue is now I cant unlock the bootloader because it says "remote: oem unlock is not allowed"
Any suggests that preferably not run MSMDownloadtool because thats been ran so many times already. Thanks
Essentially. No OS, Broken recovery, Locked bootloader and MSMDownloadTool doesnt seem to work. I imagine its just fully locked down and finished but its worth a try
First try the MSMDownload tool with the very first stock Oxygen OS
Then re-lock the bootloader using Adb
I had the same problem and now its fine

I think that your only option is to try the MSM Download Tool. You may have to run it for a few times before it succeeds. I bricked my phone and recovered with the Mega Unbrick Guide (at first attempt). Following the instructions to the letter is most important.

Bricked with locked bootloader

Guys, I have a bricked bootloader locked phone that only goes to fastboot. I've already tried test point method.

I've also tried older miui versions and same thing. When I think it's getting there... Error! I need some help
Use xiaomitool.

I've already tried too. There's no way to activate USB debugging. The phone only goes to fastboot.
Update: I got to flash with a beta version of XiaoMiFlash and it took 1200 seconds and it succeeded, but it did boot. Same thing

try testpoint method or xiaomitool method in a different PC/ Laptop, with full driver. Best is Win 7.
Good luck.
It took some doing

I tryed everything and had no success. Bootlooder locked after doing a factory data reset, and find device error when trying to boot.
In the end, I downloaded the very latest version of Mi Flash Pro miflash_pro-en-3.3.1212.88, one slightly older didn't work. I wrote the global ROM in recovery mode. It got stuck at 4.99% when I gave up watching it and after it rebooted it didn't work. I then did it again and it went through, much to my surprise. I then did a wipe date and for once, that also worked. Rebooted phone, set country and this time the phone was back Happy Days
use edl mode
Do this: fastboot boot 'last_boot_used_system.img'
Only do BOOT of lasted used boot.img in your phone!

Redmi Note 9 PRO Global bricked after built in update

My phone isn't rooted, I ran the update from Xiaomi from the settings menu and after a bit of time my phone was stuck on the splash screen for miui. I tried rebooting multiple times but I couldn't get my phone to boot up.
Did some searching over the web and tried to recover my phone using the MIFLASH tool, which showed my phone but would say its locked. I tried the unlock tool and the phone still wouldn't unlock due to asking for auth.
The last thing I tried was the EDL method, when I plug my phone into my PC it's listed in the device manager as Android BootLoader and not a com port.
I did install the drivers from MIFlash, there were no error messages, but I did see some Chinese text listed.
Is there anything I can do or have I been going about it wrong?
Did you managed to fix your phone my friend?
