Help... *Sigh*

I've been hacking dash' for a long time now... my friend gave me his phone to hack...
Thought it was easy...
I mustv'e messed something up... now every time i boot my device up it gets stuck on the screen with three colors... red, green and blue one
i have try hard resseting it - two soft keys power button...
i have tried leaving the battery out... no good
any help would be greatly appreciated

the tri color screen is the bootloader. you need to use that to flash back to a stock rom, then try to flash again.

because I am stuck on this screen my phone will not connect to the computer and sync... what should I do?

Turn the damn thing off.
Press and hold in the camera button.
After 10 secs or so, plug in your USB cable.
You can now install an Official, (from your provider), ROM available at a Sticky near you.
Once an official ROM is back on, you can continue with your evil plans.
You have to use an OFFICIAL ROM first.

thanks for that help... i did as i was told, advance to a white screen where it said "checking sd contents" still not being able to connect to my computer via activesync so i can run the original factory rom

Remove your SD card prior to flashing. It's really a very simple process man, so if it's not working for you, you're making a rather minor mistake. Just follow the information in the stickies. You may even find a video on Youtube of someone flashing from the bootloader. Oh, and if you'd read the stickies, you'd know that you don't need to connect via activesync when in bootloader mode. The PC should automatically connect and install whatever driver it needs to communicate with your phone so you can flash.

[Q] Dead Desire Z?

Hi,
I was flashing a new CM7 theme on my 2 weeks old DZ (with CM7 RC 2 running fine) but the phone got stuck at the CM bootscreen. I tried rebooting multiple times by repeatedly pushing the power button and holding it. After a few failed attempts I pulled out the battery, and after putting the battery back in and trying to power it on the phone did nothing. No matter which buttons I pushed or held in.
I tried plugging it in to the power adapter, but the Power LED's don't even go on (neither the orange or the green one). The battery was at approx. 60% when I rebooted into recovery to install the theme zip, so there should be enough power left in the battery.
When I plug the DZ onto my PC (Windows 7 OS, with eclipse and Android SDK installed and working), the PC looks for a QHSUSB_DLOAD driver. I tried looking for the device through ADB but it doesn't see it.
Please help me guys, I've had the device for only two weeks now.
PS: I'm a noob

Oh dear, that doesn't sound promising. Good luck!! We feel for you.

Anyone knows what steps to undertake to maybe revive the phone. I don't think it's totally dead since it's somehow still being detected by my PC. I just can't find that so called QHSUSB_DLOAD driver.
If I can just somehow get it to connect to ADB then I might be able to get into Hboot or recovery.

Have you checked http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html ?
Perhaps, donno for sure, it could help you

I hadn't, but already had these drivers on my PC. And before it got bricked my DZ connected fine with the PC (I flashed it using ADB and had setup Hboot and recovery). My PC just can't seem to find any drivers for this so called QHSUSB_DLOAD. It doesn't matter wich folders I choose to look for drivers. Nothing is available through internet either.

im having the same problem ... i tried several times but no luck... no LED... but u shud try pulling off the battery then put it in then press volumeUP+power button ..it will vibrate and red LED will start blinking .. i dont knw wat is it .. i connected it to PC ....windows asked for qualcom MSM driver .... i dont knw wat to do ..nd how to get bootload loader bak :S

if it does this, send it back to HTC.
the eMMC chip has failed (an unfortunately reasonably common situation, happened to me twice so far)
They'll fix it regardless of what roms you had on it etc. (unless you've done some hardware mods) i sent it in with cyanogen mod and s-off, they fixed it anyway
hope this helps!

Lol, I thought my topic died.
Since you guys revived it, might as well tell you what happened. I contacted T-Mobile and sent the Desire Z in for repair and it got repaired for free since I'd only had for two weeks back then .
After I got it back I rooted it and restored a NAND backup and everything 's been working fine since then.

they repaired it or they replaced it ?

[q] semi brick

Hello, I wanted to ask if anyone knows how to resolve a SEMI-BRICK. There is no way to enter recovery mode or fastboot.
Was installing a ROM when I got an error and never could turn on the phone. Only I get the screen with the mobile and pc with an exclamation mark in the middle.
Appreciate your help.
PS: sorry for my English
Javier

If you can't get to download mode you might be screwed. Can you get into download mode? If you can then you can just use odin or fastboot to push the factory rom to the phone and it will work again. Obviously you lose root but you can re-root afterwards. Good luck.

I find no way to enter download mode. in any way that I only try to turn the screen appears to indicate in the query.
There is no way to fix it?
thanks

Hey, in all the time on here I have never heard of a bricked Nexus.
Ok so just to be sure when the phone is off and you hold volume down and the power button it does nothing? Sorry just want to be sure this is the case...

probe all possible combinations and all leading me to the same, the screen with the exclamation mark. and on volume +, volume - and power and volume + and - and on

Ah no dude. That sounds bad. I might be wrong but you may need to go back to your provider and tell them it just switched off and wont work anymore.
Do you see the Google logo and the lock symbol when you turn it on or just this exclamation mark?
Obviously if you go back to your provider don't mention anything about roms or rooting as that voids your warranty but if they can't see the Google logo with the lock then they wont know you were rooting and romming it.
That would drive me crazy so I hope you get sorted soon.

The issue is that here in Argentina is not this phone. I bought online and sent me the U.S.. I have therefore not who wear it.

have you tried the usb jigs? i tried it on my nexus and it boots it into download mode

That might be worth a shot!

That I'll see if I can prove it today night. It is the only hope left for me.

Yeah, good luck man.

Well folks, with all the pain of the soul I confirm that I have is a full-BRICK. Last night at the JIG probe, and the only thing it does is turn on the phone and see the same screen BRICK. Since I can not think what else to do, only use it as a paperweight as they say

Any chance you try leaving battery out for a while, give it at least a good 10 minutes

Neither. I've left it up all night without battery and nothing.

Bad news Javii! So what are you going to do next?

Today I will try to recognize me either linux, so maybe you can do a fastboot to install the original rom. Because I said if you see the exclamation point is because it is a semi-brick

I used to get that screen with my Galaxy Tab when flashing the wrong ROM.
If the ODIN and original files are available for you to use, just use that and it should fix your phone.

I think I bricked my tablet

My tablet is the WiFi only version. I had it unlocked and rooted previously.
So I downloaded the new 5.1.1 images, intending to finally switch to Lollipop, and I kept getting the "missing system.img" error when trying use the batch scripts.
So I found this guide:
http://www.talkandroid.com/guides/b...-lollipop-factory-image-on-your-nexus-device/
And tried to follow it to the letter.
Sadly, once I flashed the boot.img, the device wouldn't boot anymore and it won't show up in fastboot and adb.
I also can't seem to boot it into recovery mode. My volume down button is finicky so perhaps I'm not trying hard enough?
Is there anything that can be done?
Edit: Okay, I was being an easily-panicky moron. Stupid key. Must have tried it like 10+ times till it acknowledged my press.
All is fine... I think. Once it finishes optimizing a crap-load of apps.

So, after optimizing everything works fine?

Indeed it does. Marvellously.
Rooted, enjoying the latest of Android and even helped pinpoint the source of a long-standing problem I had with brightness.
It may even help battery life.

Same Problem still exists for me
I have the wifi only version and I seem to be at a loss now.
I cannot get into recovery no matter how many times I try
PC recognises device but as APX
Screen appears to be stuck on an image of Andy stood upright with a sort of hexagonal wire frame rotating in his belly with "erasing" underneath. Stays this way for hours/days and does not change. Have looked through all sorts of forums for help or do you guys think I should just give up??
ANY Help at all would be greatly appreciated

It seems that your device is toast Maybe your NAND storage is faulty and you will need to purchase a new mainboard

I had a booting problem as well but i was able to fix it with nexus root toolkit

Friend wiped his Tab S SM-T705 while installing stock rom via odin when battery died

Hello I hope this is the right place to post this request. A friend of mine asked me to try and fix his tablet and I have no idea what to do since all my usual methods arent working on it. I hope someone can tell me if this case is just hopeless or if their is something that can still be done.
The Problem,
My friend changed out the battery on his Tab S and at the same time he decided to reinstall his stock rom. Not exactly sure what was the reasoning behind this. Well mid installation his battery died out and ruined the ODIN install and left him with a wiped machine which seems to not even have a recovery option available any more. The tablet will not boot nor will it even show a samsung logo. The only option I have is to do the hardware button config (VOL Down+ Home+Power) to get it into download mode. Unfortunately even when in download mode no computer will detect that it is connected. I have installed and re-installed drivers from samsung but no cigar as well as not having any luck with the different cables/ports on the machines that we have tried.
Wondering if their is anything we can do at this point since it doesn't even seem possible to try a SD card installation. Any help or direction would be appreciated even if the course of action is to just abandonen ship at this point.
Thank,
J
