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] Galaxy Nexus black screen of death

Basically, this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1384415
No one responded to that thread because it was in the wrong forum.
I got the "Phone -- ! -- PC" screen, and was attempting to fix it before getting this black screen of death.
Galaxy Nexus GSM
Rooted, Codename ROM, don't think there is a Kernel in there
Carrier: Virgin Mobile
Edit: I won't be able to respond for a couple hours as I'm going to work. Any and all help is much appreciated.
Original post from above thread below:
Hello guys,
I have recently bought my first android phone, the Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
On the second day I decided to root it since I needed market enabler, as my local market (UAE) has literally no apps.
I rooted using the SDK tools, fastboot and superboot. Everything worked fine for 1 day.
However, the next day, the phone just died on me, and would not boot at all. It kept getting stuck on the "Google" image at startup. At that point, I could still go into the bootloader. I tried locking/unlocking the bootloader again, since that basically wipes all the date on the phone, but it still refused to load, it would get stuck at the startup animation.
After a few more attempts, it kept spam restarting every time I tried to switch it on.
At that point, I was downloading the default OEM ROM so I could reflash that onto the phone. However, I thought I could try using the superboot bat file again, and maybe that would fix the problem. BIG MISTAKE.
As soon as I ran that file, the phone COMPLETELY died. It will not start at ALL, it will not go into Bootloader, not go into Recovery mode, and not even go into Download (odin) mode.
The ONLY possible response you can get from it, is when you plug it into the PC. My PC seems to play that "detection" sound, same sound as when you plug in a USB, but it would just play that sound over and over again, as if im plugging/unplugging a device really quickly. It seems like the phone is continously restarting itself. When I connect the phone to the PC and that disconnect/reconnect sound comes up, I went into my device manager and I could see the following:
An item under "Other Devices" called "OMAP4440" keeps appearing and dissapearing all the time, with the little "!" mark next to it indicating that there is a driver error. The drivers for this phone are fully installed on this same PC, and it use to work fine before it went dead.
Now the problem is since I cant get into any mode whatsoever, its a bit hard to diagnose the phone. I know there is a "recovery" slot at the bottom of the phone that is accessible with a small pin, but I dont for the life of me know how that works or what it does. Does anybody know how to work that or what it actually does?
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks fellas.

What i with my little (almost nothing experience in android) would do its going to another computer with no drivers installed, would download the toolkit and install those drivers, then plug the phone and see what happen, im sure its not bricked since the computer recognice it.. I did lot of stuff with blackberry and there was a lot of ways to recover a phone like that... From here if the toolkit recognice it in any way.. Then you could try to do some of those steps.. As far as i tried doing all kind of stuff to my phone, toolkit its for much the Best Tool and way to do anything to your phone or at least for starters like me
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

But the computer doesn't actually recognize it. The "detection" sound it makes is for an unresponsive device. It won't charge, won't be recognized, and no matter what combo I use, it doesn't turn it.
I played dumb, called Samsung, and now I'm going to send it in. Thanks for the help though.

sometimes my screen goes blank and I have to pull the battery and everything comes back to normal

[Q] Xperia Play Won't Turn On

I am currently trying to fix a friend's Xperia Play r800a. It seems to be having a few different problems and together they are making it all difficult to get it going again. First off I have no real knowledge of toying with an Android phone. I browsed some threads on here, used Google and tried to use Flashtool to get the original operating system on it but all were a no go. I'll try and describe the problems to the best of my abilities and maybe someone can offer some help.
This is what I know from what he remembers he did to the phone. He said that the phone started t only boot to the Sony logo and then it would hang until the battery died or the phone was reset. If plugged in with a wall charger then it would allow him to get to the screen where he would enter his password but the touch screen wouldn't work. He then flashed it using Flashtool and at that point it would boot to a black screen and that's it.
-It hangs on a black screen, no logo or anything is present and it happens regardless of whether it is plugged into a wall charger or not.
-It is not found when plugged into the USB port (Windows 7 PC) and shows up as an unknown device. After a few minutes it is found by the PC but sometimes will randomly go back to an unknown device.
-I sometimes get a red light which blinks three times when I press the power button on the phone. I am currently charging it to see if it was a matter of being a dead battery or something worse (I heard it could be a hardware failure).
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

My Xperia Play has done This I asked a Mate (Jinx13) He said Il do a hardcore Testpoint process. After I have done this My Phone will Vibrate and Nothing I was Playing Rayman today and it Locks and Hardware Keys Do Not respond.
Then Touchscreen Stopped Working. Indeed This is a Hardware Failure I have got this and Re-Flashing with Blinking SETOOL2 and Resseting it Wouldn't work. I Then Re-Locked By fastboot SIM and Bootloader (Maintained DRM) and Now Dowloading R800i O2-UK From SETOOL Support and 3-UK one and I will Upload them for US people for Warranty they Become indeed handy . I now Am Going to O2 shop I was Running 2.3.4 .42 GENERIC.But I am Not allowed to Give you the FW's Only by Re-Uploading I Can. Anyway My Brave Soldier Died (Hardware Failure) Its the Screen Components.Im Not Rooted anymore and Re-locked with S1-Tool.
If this happens to you My advice is Dont Flash Alpha ROM's They can make Your device Coo Coo. And OC can Damage.
Basically I boot My phone with a 3600MAH Mugen Battery 89% Battery From the Last time It was on. Im afraid your friends Phone is Dead Maybe a Hardware Failure Most Likly and I am now Officialy Out of the Game.
But O2 Gave me 3 Year warranty!!!!! For £100 When I Purchased it. So I am Going to O2 in Stevenage and Say this What actually happend:
"I Purchased My Xperia Play on August 17th Through Online Store ; I have never had a Problem With My device Untill This week : I have had these Issues:
*Touchscreen Wont respond Cleaned Several Times.
*Random Reboots
*Red Light when Phone had 50%+ Battery
*Would Take 6 Battery Pulls to Turn on (Would Only turn on Earlier during the week)
*Lagged In games.
*Running O2 Branded Software
*No Screen Brightness or Signs of Working Screen.
*Would Not charge Unless turned On
*Camera Would Not work Unless Wifi Was not on I dont know why?
So Basically This Phone had a A fault since Day one I always had Camera Fails.

okay lol i don't know if that second post helped but is the phone unlocked? by any chance if it is, you can never really brick your xperia, from experience i kept flashing re flashing cusom kernal all day i get the same loops etc, but always fixable, also flash tool should fix your phone if that is you got the right ftf file for the brand like i have verizon and it have a verizon.ftf file, other than that i need more info about the phone not how it bricked, like what was it running at first etc. Try sony software reflashing repairing if that doesn't work use flashtool and see if you get an error with that

I cant enter fastboot or recovery lol

If you follow the instructions for method 2, and repeatedly do it a few times, you can succeed. The important thing is to follow the instructions strictly, however silly they may look like.

I did several times, double checking all steps, still boot loop. After apply the method 2 , is doing a boot loop. Than I tried to apply again method 2 I have the successful download with green ...than I go in recovery and flash over adb sideload oos 3.2.8 ...than I start , no more boot loop, but after Oneplus logo goes into black screen with a withe stable notification led turned on ....I left over night ... But it keep staying like that until I force to power off by pressing and holding power button( after I want to turn off i cannot only going into bootloader and from there I choose power of, because is automatically turning on if I press and hold only the power button in order to turn off the device).
Pfiu difficult... I am thinking, some files are missing, this , and where I go in bootloader in missing the values on. Bootloader version- , and baseband version- ....

The bootloader and baseband versions were missing when i bought the phone new and are still blank today after flashing a few ROMs and Recoveries/Firmware and modems. So that is not an issue.
Are you downloading the correct files?

Yes, I am using the unbrick method with msm download tool, using the Method 2, after apply, installing all's the Qualcomm drivers 9008 , drivers signature off in windows.... The unbrick tool is passed with the green message .... Reversing back to oos 3.1.2 Android 6.0.1 ..stock, I have recovery working and bootloader also working, bootloader is locked ....so I cannot do too mutch. I start the device right away after unbrick tool and still boot to op logo that is going to vibrate as restart .... And stays in boot loop. Next step I go into recovery , and do over sideload an update with a full ROM, oos 4.0.1 , also tried with full ROM 3.2.8 ...I can sideload the whole ROM , than i start the device and after op logo goes in black screen and white motivation led lighted .... I leave it for 30 min, and still in the same, now I force turn off by going into bootloader and power off. Notice that after this sideload flash I cannot access the recovery. So I need to apply back the unbrick msm download tool for op3.
I tried also to flash over sideload a signed script from Ahmed , unified toolkit , to activate the USB debugging, but gives an error.
I run out of ideas .....any help is welcome ....

RMA'd it to a service center for repair, after two tech support calls. They actually told me that they couldn't repair it due to "water damage." Funny thing is, that phone was never dropped in or on anything, let alone in WATER. Then to add insult to injury they refused to send it back to me stating that I had to pay for return shipping. My wife got on the phone with them and by the end of the phone call they said that they would send it back for free. HAHA. So I bought a Oneplus 3 after that whole ordeal. All the while the Oneplus X sat in the box on my desk for about 5 months. Last week I decided to pick it up and tinker with it some more. I scoured the net trying to find any other programs or solutions that I hadn't tried prior to sending it off. I came across somethings that I hadn't seen before. https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/help/fastboot-mode-available-stuck-kindly-t3387918. http://rootmygalaxy.net/oneplus-x-s...w.pickmod.com/rom/4187/coloros-for-oneplus-x/. Ended up flashing Color OS via msm tool. Wouldn't load OS, but i didn't end up with a black screen and white LED, it just sat there. So right after I flashed Color OS, i Flashed the mini unbrick tool by Naman, and BOOM it booted into OS. Hope this helps.

Bricked S4 Mini Duos GT-I9192

Hello everyone, hope someone would be able to help me recover this phone
The phone gets stuck at the logo screen, left it like that for 7 hours but no change
Recovery mode gives a black screen, not sure if it does access it but display nothing or doesn't access it at all
I have tried using Kies but every time I type the model as per the sticker under the battery, Kies replies with "Please check model number"
I can go into Download mode, Odin detects the phone as COM 3, but doesn't go beyond the initialization step
Some people actually suggested smacking the phone on the power button side, I did it as I was desperate but nothing changed
As the list above states, I am out of ideas and not sure if I can get this phone to work again.
Just to let everyone know, it had a stock firmware, no root and no custom recovery.

according to a repair shop, it is more of a hardware issue and some parts would need changing but cost was almost the price of the phone if i were to sell it while working so it wasnt worth it

how was your experience with the battery of the S4 Mini Duos. For how long does ir last ?? and how much time does was it taking ??
Thanks,,
