Universal Dead after upgrade

I have upgraded my rom to the new IMATE one and it is now stuck on the first splash screed and wont go any further, i have tried reflashing it a number of times but still no luck.

My universal is now completely dead no bootloader or nothing does anyone know somone who has hardware to reflash the rom

flash instructions new i-mate ROM
After failure, keep Universal connected to PC (with weak visible USB screen) and just retry to flash after soft reset of Universal. Use MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe in flash directory on PC to start. I sometimes have to restart MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe if no luck with flashing and to reflash radio only if Universal is stuck after flash. Good luck. NB. I flashed my MDA Pro succesfully this night after several retries and it is faster, better now.

The screen is blank the the pc just say usb not reconized

please read point 2 here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=4534

just got in contact with HTC say about £40 to have it reflashed, so not that bad!!

try plugging the usb cable into a different socket, then retry the flash

Easy...
I run in the same problem, the procedure bellow help me to solve the problem ...
1. Make sure your i-mate™ device is not Connected to the PC and remove the dummie card or SD/MMC card
2. On your Desktop PC, open Microsoft ActiveSync, then go to File > Connection Settings > Remove the Selection from “Allow USB Connection with this desktop computer”
3. Reconnect your i-mate device to the Desktop PC using the USB Cradle and the Charger MUST be Connected to the Cradle (Don’t use the IrDA or Bluetooth for the Upgrade)
4. Run the Upgrade again and it will work fine without any problems.
Fingers crossed to work with you as well..

I had same problems but i found solutions:
after update the all three files of rom install one more time radio.nbf only. pAfter that reset device by stylus wth pushing Power button.
Device is working.
Sorry for my stuped english
Best regards

Who pissed in your Wheaties, Simon? The posting had a reasonable subject line.

The PC wont even connect and cant get the bootloader to come up so it is completly dead, so will have to send back to HTC, most likly take them 5 mins to do

before sending back try this:
-disconnect USB cable
-disable USB connection in desktop ActiveSync
-connect USB cable
-start mtty (download here)
-create new connection and select USB from ports
press enter to see USB prompt in mtty:
USB>
type (dont copy&paste):
set 14 0
and press enter
then reboot Universal.
it should boot normally.
buzz (of course HIM)
ciao

Thanks i have tried that i think the last time i flashed the rom it messed up the bootloader so cant get any connection with the PC now

Have you tried the various ways to reboot the universal?
Like holding down the two white dashes on the top of the keypad, while pressing the reset button?
Just a thought, but somewhere here is at least three different ways to wake up the JasJar. And reset plus power is not one of them. Note don't expect to get a screen light anymore. Any way that you might have access to a charge battery? If you allow the battery to fully discharge it can be hard to restart the charging process, your battery might just be uncharged.

The battery was fully charged when it died, and i have tried all the ways said on the forum to get it to wake up again, i think it was the error i got when it was flashing the rom and stoped half way through

Uno strumento davvero inutile..

[Moto G8 XT2045-1] How to force EDL mode

This thread is supposed to be a guide for anyone with a hard bricked XT2045-1 to be able to unbrick the device by forcing it into EDL mode to flash a new firmware. It is a work in progress and I will update it with the proper guide as soon as all steps are proven to work fine.
Long story short, I recently bought a XT2045-1 and it came with Android 11 installed. I wanted to install a custom ROM and noticed all SOFIAR ROMs require Android 10, so I tried to downgrade and got a bootloop, then used a blankflash to start fresh and the device did not boot to bootloader and simply it is not detected by the computer anymore (more info in this other thread).
Looking around, it seems that all G8 models are very similar, and I have found this video about unbricking a G8+ (XT2019) shorting two test points in the phone's board. I am not sure if it is the same person, but I am sure the procedure is related to this XDA thread with a picture from the service manual and a PDF guide for the same phone. So it seems that Vol_Up + Power does not work at all.
Continuing my research, I found this Reddit post that linked to the image below showing what seems to be the equivalent test points for the XT2045-1:
Screenshot
Captured with Lightshot
prnt.sc
The service manual can be found in the link below, and it seems that these are indeed the equivalent ones:
ESQUEMAS ELÉTRICOS - Motorola
nefybrasil.blogspot.com
I opened the phone and tried to short the two test points while connecting the USB cable, but still nothing was detected in the computer. I tried with both the flat cable from the screen connected or not, with the battery connected or not, no deal. When I plug the USB cable while the battery is not connected, I can see a white LED blink, nothing else. Before my phone bricked, I was able to boot into EDL mode only by booting the TWRP and then using adb reboot edl, so it does have an EDL mode.
Anyone tried to short the test points or starting the phone while pressing some buttons and it worked?

hello! Exactly the same thing happened to me, I did a downgrade and my phone died, now it has a black screen and I can't enter edl mode, did you find any solution?

I think I found the pins to enter EDL mode with the moto g8 power!

amigos yo hice todo el procedimiento que indicaron y mi pc detecta esto:

Luego realicé el proceso del archivo blankflash_sofiar_RPES31. Q4U-47-35-8 Pero el dispositivo nunca se reinicia en modo fastboot y solo se mantiene en negro y el led parpadea de vez en cuando ¿Ustedes encontraron alguna solución?

Sorry for the late reply. Only recently I was able to unbrick my G8, it also had a hardware problem that made it impossible to enter EDL mode using the pads. Also it seems that newer firmwares have an anti-rollback feature, so you must use a blankflash file that is equal or newer than the firmware that was working when the phone bricked. More info here:
[Moto G8 XT2045-1] How to enter EDL when phone died?
Hello, there! I recently bought a XT2045-1 and wanted to install a custom ROM. Bellow are the results of the fastboot get_var all when the phone had it bootloader still locked: Searching XDA, I've found that all SOFIAR ROMs require that the...
forum.xda-developers.com

Long story short: yes, it is possible to enter EDL mode via hardware with the XT2045-1 phone. Using the service manual, it shows that FORCE_BOOT is linked to TP2312 and TP2313, so:
1. Make sure the phone is OFF, if you are not sure then carefully remove the battery, wait a few seconds and connect it again. You can keep the fingerprint sensor and display cables disconnected, the computer will show when the phone is connected. After you are sure the blankflash was successful and the phone can boot to fastboot, disconnect the battery and connect the display if you want.
2. Connect the two pads using something metallic (be careful to not damage the board) and only then connect the USB cable to the computer. If it worked, the computer will show a Qualcomm device. If you are on winblows you may need drivers, install Motorola RSA tools or similar if you see an unknown USB device.
3. For newer firmware versions, you cannot downgrade the bootloader, so you must use a version of singleimage.bin that has a bootloader that is equal or newer than the one the phone had when it was working fine. If you cannot find a correct version online, you can build one by yourself, see this thread on Reddit for more info.

Question Samsung A22 stuck on home screen

Hello;
I have a Samsung A22 which restarted on its own, and it got stuck on the phone's start screen (see photo). It shows as system notification: "Phone restarted: Unlock your phone to receive app notifications." even if the phone is unlocked.
Thanks.

Try to boot into Recovery mode.
Restart your phone and hold Volume Up and Power button for some seconds, then release the Power Button when the screen shows the Samsung and Android logos, then few seconds later release the Volume Up button and it will boot into Recovery mode.
Navigate with volume buttons (Up and Down) and Power button for Select. Do Clear cache, select Yes for confirm (make sure it is not wipe data, or else it will erase your data), when the Cache is wiped, then select Repair apps, and automatically the phone will restart and will be optimizing the apps.
I hope this can fix your problem, In case it doesn't work, try Safe Mode to see if it's not a problem of a recently installed app.

What rom did you try to install and what was the way you tried to install it? Does your pc still recognise the device when you plug it in? Fastboot or bootloader still availible?

Not work

Did you try to push on power + two volume buttons for a minute (while the pone connected to the PC)?

Yes and do nothing

Try to hold all the buttons before you connected it to the PC and then connect it to the computer

No answer
