i'm new with htc lolite i have my device breakdown it still on the beginning screen and never change i try to connect my device via active sync my pc does not recognize it it try to enter the bootloader mode by pressing volume down and power key it show Waite screen called usb update mode there is no colors plz help me to install new rom
Sorry but it looks like, based on what you said about your bootloader, that you unfortunately got a clone instead of the original device.
That said, we can't really help you, because it is a totally different device...
If you bought it on ebay, and used paypal, i would recommend opening a ticket with paypal so that you can get your money back...
Good luck!

Hi all,
I've a bricked Galaxy Vibrant T959 and blocked Recovery/Download Menu. Samsung reject the repairing because is not for the local market.
Now I'm searching a Service Center or someone else in Germany, which has can put the mobile into the DL-Mode via JIG ( Anyway Box) or via JTAG.
I'm still try to call different shops ( Handy Doctor etc.. ) but all which I 've call are working also "only" via the DL&Recovery Mode ...
Does someone help to find an address, where I can send the Mobile for repair?

can your phone still turn on? (i'm wondering if you can still use adb to reboot to download or recovery)

Yes, it can
> I can switch it on till the "S" is coming, after that BLack-screen and the 4 keys are lightning.
> If I connect them into the USB, the green battery come up and the phone spend, if the Battery is full
Unfortunately the Recovery / Download Menu is blocked ( I've bricked them 2 days before the Recovery fix was coming out ( I'm idiot ...)) and so I have not found anything to received the DL Mode.... ( I think I have try all, what I've found) the PC reported an unknown device and deactivate the USB- Port. I haven't also found, which driver I can press manual to this device, that Odin can handle this one ....
Hi well here in Köln there are plenty of Turkish German shops that I'm sure would try to help you out. The problem is they really don't have any tools you couldn't have discovered for yourself on XDA. T-mobile USA I heard are real sticklers when it comes to repairing rooted phones even when the problem is not software related. I guess that goes to show your chances if you would send in your phone.
Still, if no European service center is willing to help you and you have exhausted every possibility of fixing it yourself I suggest calling T-mobile USA and telling them you moved to Germany and now your phone miraculously went blank. You might just want to try your luck with their repair department. Generally speaking, it's not always discovered you basically jacked up your phone yourself!
Alternatively I would suggest calling T-mobile here, they might be sympathetic to your case, although I think it's a long shot. It would really require some lying and creative story telling your part to get them to exchange your phone for a German one. In my experience especially their business support center is given a substantial amount of leeway to help customers with unusual problems and ideas and isn't tied down by the same rules they work with at the customer service for private kunden. E.g. they once helped me getting out of a Dutch contract prematurely, which would not have otherwise been possible.
Good luck!
The only problem here is - T-Mo US and Germany- that I have no contract. I using a Sim from Alice and they a cooperate with O2 .....
I believe the only way is, direct to connect Samsung US.... No Service-Center has a Anyway box If they talk a little bit, they all work with the tools, which are available everywhere .... Sh...t - why Samsung is not willing to repair - also not for money ... Global player - nice joke....
Maybe someone has another idea? I don't want believe, that the phone is now expansive trush ... 5 min in use; the plastic on the screen is still there ....

well, this phone is supposed to be near unbrickable. though i've never experienced this problem, i'm pretty sure it sounds like it's a soft brick on a HW locked phone. i don't know if your phone is already set to usb debugging mode but i guess this is worth a shot if it is:
1. extract AndroidSDK to your c:/
2.get the drivers from this post and install (these are supposed to be the correct samsung drivers and hopefully your pc will see the phone with these)
3. Download these files to some place where you know they'll be (Odin, 512.pit, JFD.tar). Also watch the vid tutorial on how to apply files so you'll get an idea of how this works.
4. after all that is done, try to access command prompt (start btn > run> cmd in windows xp iirc or shift+right click on desktop if you're in vista - not sure if it's the same on windows7).
5. once cmd is open, type in cd c:\android-sdk-windows\tools (that's to get you to where adb is)
6. open up Odin and plug in your phone into the USB.
7. go back into the cmd prompt: the cmd line should now read like this c:\android-sdk-windows\tools>, if it does type in this command: adb reboot download
i've never done this but i think that should get your phone into download mode and get it readable to Odin so that you could manually flash to stock. i should warn you that it's probably going to erase your data on the internal memory and that there's a chance that this can result in a full brick but at least if this is done correctly, your phone should be able to fully boot.
p.s: i've read plenty of times that Odin can be finicky and it may take multiple tries before it sees your phone and highlights the COM port.
BTW: check the Vibrant Bible out, for extra research before you try doing anything to your phone.
I'm hoping that someone more experienced at flashing will chime in on this post.
Thx for the time, to write all the different Steps.
Unfortunately, the PC does not see the Mobile. The PC reported only " Unknown Device and after this one, the Port is closed. So I have also no access via adb to the phone. Odin can not select any COM about the same reason.
In the case, that the Recovery- and Download Menu will working, so adb and Odin will be working. About the Defensive Phone, the Port is not open and so the chance to repair this phone is only via Anyway-box (JIG) to force the DL-Mode over the USB-cable or the more time-expansive method via JTAG.
hi there!
i searched the i9100 forum for "broken display", but didnt find any solution.
as mentioned the display is black, while the touchscreen is still working. the data i would like to download from the are: photos, contacts
(+ anything else i can recover).
- the phone can not be mounted via USB.
- also downloaded the sdk and tried /tools/ddms without success - doesnt show up/mount.
- the shell(terminal.app) doesnt recognize the command "adb".
- the phone is not rooted.
i am not a pro, but merely a user, so may be i did use any of the above incorrectly, or didnt meet some prerequisites. just tried what i could before bothering you.
any help is appreciated!
thanks in advance

Try it with a HDMI cable with an lcd tv.
Baloo
Try a PC you need USB to recover therefore USB drivers via KIES .
You may be able to fix screen if its not hardware by download mode and flash stock rom though this is a wipe mode and you will lose some data . But thats what a backups for presume no backup via KIES no back up via GOOGLE no backup via Nandroid ???
You will need a PC POWER phone off
Download stock rom from stock roms post open ODIN put rom to PDA .
Hold down Vol down button + Home button _ Pwr button
next press Vol up button once
Connect Samsung USB cable if you now get a yellow block in ODIN proceed to flash .
No yellow block = no connection .
jje
first off all, thanks for your replies! couldnt find a thank you button in the thread though...
@balootm
i dont have a HDMI-cable with USB lying around. so... before i go and buy one, i would actually like to KNOW that it works. but i will keep it in mind, if i dont find another solution. thanks.
@JJEgan
just to clarify: the OLED is broken - my bullterrier caught the charger cable while walking by. it IS hardware related, but only the display. the touchscreen still works, although its not of much use, if i cant see whats going on on the display ;-)
clarification of what i need: connect the phone to another device -
- in order to access my data on the phone (preferably my macbook pro or an another android phone).
- without having access to the phones display.
- preferably without buying special cables (more of a wish...)
i hope that you can help me better now. if i omitted anything important or you need more info, please let me know.
thanks
Beon
(EDIT: just found the "thank you"-buttons)
Bring it to Samsung service center i presume?
Just to be safe.. It will guarantee your data won't be lost..

well, yeah it sounded like someone just stole a pin coded phone.
but i can show you my receipt and the box and everything that came with the brand new unit. if you would track my records here, you will see that i have been in the sk17 forums
after the touchscreen of the phone broke last May, i've scouted for good repairman but couldn't have enough time since i transferred to a new company. since then, i had hectic work schedule. it's just recently (first week of October), right after the phone's 1year warranty (September30), that I had the chance to get the phone fixed.
i have contacted sony via email and waiting for their reply. see, i still have erratic work schedule these days.
i have posted here my question, since i know that there are a lot of brilliant people who could help me.
if you don't know the answer, it's fine. thank you for bumping my thread. :angel:
Can you still enter flashmode? This should work
Download flashtool and the gingerbread or ice cream sandwich ftf for your device. Go to installation folder of flashtool>drivers and install all drivers for all devices.
Copy the downloaded ftf in the firmware folder.
Launch flashtool, click on the flash > flashmode > select the downloaded ftf > don't exclude anything on the right side > check again that the ftf is for your device (xperia mini pro=sk17a/i) and click ok.
Turn phone off, hold volume down and plug in pc. The green led will light up and it will be flashed automaticly. Don't disconnect while flashing. If it has ended and there are no errors, boot phone up.
Done
I'll start out that I'm new to android, been an avid blackberry user that just purchased my note 2. I followed the casual root application, and unlocked and rooted my device. I went to install cm 10.2 mod on my device after wiping the device in development mode then proceeded to install from sdcard and it failed. Now my device will not respond to either download mode or development mode or power on in any way (including using a charger and removing and replacing the battery). I'm kind of stuck and not sure how to approach the correct solution to get my device back up and running. I did make sure that the cm mod I downloaded was for my specific device. Is it possible that maybe the root/unlock method failed and thats where I went wrong when installing the cm mod? I also get no response when the device is plugged into my pc. So its not being read by odin currrently.
Since it appears I have hard bricked my device, not quite sure what steps I can do to recover. I get no power to the device in any situation, I've read online about jtag, if anyone could point me in a direction it would be helpful. Thanks in advance.
Sorry forgot to mention this was a verizon branded note 2

remove your battery connect to pc and go to download mode by pressing the button combo if odin shows a port
and you are connected then you are saved if not I guess its tym for service center

Thanks for the reply sangalaxy, like I mentioned the phone does not respond at all for download mode, not recognized by Odin or showing any power when connected to a charger. Hence why I was thinking its hard bricked.
I'm not sure if I can send it to samsung, since I bought the phone off craigslist.

yea sometimes it will not recognize anything and will not show on screen but will work silently
did you tried connecting it to pc without battery as I said and go to download mode by pressing buttons may be odin will recognize
if not you don't have any choice but go to samsung
Your right I didn't fully read your post to try those instructions, unfortunately it didn't work but thank you for the help. It is definitely appreciated. I think I have found someone off eBay with a good reputation for jtagging android devices that might be a solution.

ok friend hope it gets fixed
Hello. I have flashed my Lenovo Vibe K5, former build A6020a40_S004 to A6020a40_105, hoping for that VoLTE update. Following the proper steps and downloading the Stock ROM Firmware from trusted supplier, my phone won't boot into anything: recovery, or normal. Though the LED lights up when connected to a computer. However, it doesn't appear on my computer or hear that USB chime. I'm using a Windows 10 (which I've seen many have issues with Windows 10 and drivers) running on Bootcamp 6. I appreciate it if you guys could help me. Thank you very much.
By the way, I have no custom recovery installed. Just the basic Android System Recovery <3e> and I'm not that familiar with Android systems.

Well sorry to hear about that but I know very well how to recover from such situation. You'll need to flash the recovery IMG again so that it boots into recovery mode

Thanks! Can you tell me how? I've been researching about this as well for a long time now. Any help is appreciated.
Yes my bud. I will provide you the link shortly to some SDK tools so that you can flash your recovery IMG again and et access to recovery mode. I know that situation is chaotic and sucks but I am assuming that you aren't able to access twrp or anything.when you turn the phone on it gets stuck at lenovo and after few minutes it gets restarted on its own. And on connection g it to computer, it just doesn't get connected and nothing appears to be connected. I want you to take the battery out and place it again after few minutes and press the "vol down" button and "power button at the same time. You'll see the same lenovo icon but there will be something written in Chinese or something like that. Now connect your phone to your computer and I advise you to use a very good quality data sharing cable or original lenovo cable. Now your computer will recognise your phone as a hard drive or a storage device.i I'll try to upload a video on that too. Till then try these steps and lemme know if they work and your computer recognises your dead phone.if it does then there is still a hope left. BTW I was stuck in the same situation twice but thank god I saved myself and I am using my device. Note:- this method doesn't uses any software like " QFIL" or "QCOM" loader to flash stock firmware. Hope it works

PS. Can you please DM me the links or if it isn't a loss for you you may just reply it here.
Thanks in advance and more power. The world needs more people like you.
Sincerely,
Justin

Hey man. Justin here, again.
You may reach me through "[email protected]".
It doesn't show anything. Though, the LED light illuminates when connected to a power source or laptop. I'm starting to think it's absolutely hopeless. But please do message me anyway.
