Hey guys, I have some serious problems.
So after reading threads and forums for 3 days now, I still can't make my g2 work again. So the problem is that my phone, out of nowhere just turned itself off, and now is in a bootloop. I had that once before, I did a factory reset with the buttons, and it was working again. Now it happened again, but when I try to do a factory reset, it freezes, and doesn't do anything at all. I tried this several times, nothing. I want to say, I don't know anything about custom roms, ive never tried to do a firmware update on my own, or tried to unlock bootloader, so you know I can't even do any of these. I always left my phone's system in its factory shape. But still this happens to me, and I can't boot into download mode even, my computer recognizes my phone as an USB charge only interface. I read about lots of solutions, and i can't even do them because my phone doesn't load the download mode. I hold volume up, plug in the cable, it tells me to keep holding, and after 30 secs, it goes to something thats gotta be fastboot mode (the last entry is fastbootrocessing commands). I don't know anything about developing or what, so please guys help me

I have a Vibrant that I believe may have hard bricked when odin crashed/froze during last 10% of install and now the phone wont turn on and boot, go into download mode by means of jig, pressing both vol up and down at the same time as the power button or other various jump start methods, as well as wont go into recovery. I've just ordered a new break out jig and I'm curious to see if it will work for this or like my other jig be ineffective. The Vibrant came to me disassembled, and immediately upon reassembly I experienced booting issues with it. Sometimes it would boot up revealing the home screen before it would shut off and others it would barely flash the first splash before shut off. I'd see similar behavior when I attempted to boot to recovery, but then when ever the phone was in download mode it would stay on. I flashed it several times with odin but it would never really stick. The last couple attempts had shown promise when it would start making it further into the boot process before the attempt when odin froze during the install of the rom and I can only think that now it's hard bricked. Now that my friend has brought me his Fascinate that is showing similar characteristics within his phone, I'm hoping for some help with understanding whats causing these problems. His phone wont boot unless it is plugged in, however it will continue to function after unplugging the charger from phone. That just makes me think of the Vibrant and how it would only stay on in download mode, but the 2 situations could be completely unrelated in the cause of the boot issues, if you can please help.

Hi,
I've got Lenovo s650, rooted with a custom rom (MIUI). All was perfect for weeks but few days ago it started randomly going off. Then I noticed that sometimes when I listen to music it crashes (making the music freeze and repeat same note for like 10secs) and shuts down. I thought it could be related to some apps but since I was very busy I didn't do anything about it.
Now today I noticed that my phone suddenly lost network coverage (in area where I always use it). I tried airplane mode on/off but didn't help, so I powered off and thought I will do hard reset when I get back home. However since then the phone is completely dead. Can't get into recovery, if I plug into USB nothing happens, if I take out the battery the red light turns and it goes to "META" mode for few secs (as it's intended to) but I can't download anything into it as I get some DRAM error in Upgrade /flash/ tool.
Funny thing that somehow I was trying all the combinations Volume up/down/both + power and at some point I randomly managed to turn it on so I was gonna make a backup of my stuff but it froze and shut down again. Now nothing works......
Any ideas what happened? :/
Some additional info:
I've got TWRP recovery (however I am unable to re-download it again via flashtool because of DRAM error).
I tried getting into adb but I am not sure if it's possible when the phone is off (tried volume button combinations with battery in and out but nothing).
Also when my phone is with battery and I put it into USB, pc recognizes it as "MTK USB Port", but it keeps disconnecting and reconnecting every 5 seconds. Tried to replace it with adb USB driver but didn't work.
Not having a phone I'll probably give a "Format all" option a shot in flash tool... either gonna brick it forever or fix it..
Edit1: Can't even format due to DRAM error....... :/
Edit2: This is so bizarre... I managed to connect my phone a couple of times in Mediatek preloader mode so the flash tool started flashing the rom, but stopped in a few mins unable to format something because it's protected.
I also managed to turn on the phone a couple of times and tried connecting via adb, but once I grant root permissions, adb shell on my pc cannot find device anymore.
It seems like either a hardware or kernel problem but I know nothing about either of them..
Edit3: I don't know how but I fixed it. Phone seems to be fine for now
Edit4: After 1 hour of working the phone died in exactly the same way.... And so this 6-week old phone will be going to rubbish bin. End of my blog.
Hi there! I'm a stupid-stupid person. I was trying to get Lollipop faster, so I tried to flash lollipop on my phone.
I managed to root it, but haven't done any backup, except for media and contacts.
I'll try to explain what I've done.
So I rooted the phone, entered the download mode and then I tried to flash it using LG Flash Tool 2014.
When in download mode, it was stuck at 0%, so I didn't wait to go ahead, I tried to flash it.
Now, the flash failed several times. The phone was alright then.
Further, I tried again and at some point something happened, it got to two percent, it wrote COM4 and then it failed. It might have been my antivirus that stopped the process, I'm not sure.
Well, now I have a useless phone. It keeps showing the LG logo.
The hard reset doesn't work, it's not recognized in Device manager, and it doesn't work download mode.
When I try to power it off it does so only after a long press. At first, when the screen goes black, if I release the power switch, then it will reboot again. If I press it long enough, the phone will power off.
I'm desperate, of course.
The phone was running Kitkat.
Hi guys. So I have been going through xda and Google for hours and hours trying solutions, to no avail. I almost never post on forums for help because I can usually find the solution. Not this time. This is my last resort next to throwing my phone out a window or praying for death's sweet release.
The facts: I have a rooted Xperia Z3v. I tried to upgrade TWRP in order to follow some directions on upgrading to Nougat. I flashed TWRP from 2.8.X.X to 3.X.X.X. I rebooted and it never made it to the Sony logo. Now, if I plug the phone in to either a wall socket or PC it vibrates, endlessly at three second intervals, each time with red LED. If I try to enter flash mode, then its the same but with a brief green led after the red. I can enter fastboot (the only way to stop it vibrating while plugged in) and my PC sees it, including Flashtool, but since my bootloader is locked permanently, I can't really do much with it.
When plugged into the wall-charger, I noticed that the charger's LED changes from "Active" to "Inactive" with every vibration. I'm pretty sure I'm in a reboot loop. The screen is totally dead and there's no logo, but every three seconds it kills it self and comes back.
I have tried everything I could think of.
What I have:
I have the stock firmware ready to go
I have TWRP backups on SD card and PC
I have Flashtool
I think my drivers are good, but not 100% sure
I can fastboot
I'm at my wit's end and losing hope.
Please, I'm open to any suggestions at all.
Hi guys, I have a samsung galaxy j600fn/ds, tryed to flash twrp, something went wrong and now I'm locked on the ''Samsung'' logo screen
I guess it is brick, though I'm totally stuck at the screen, the phone won't even turn off, so I don't know how to acces download mode to install stock firmware.. anyone can be of help?
EDIT: solved.. of course the solution was just to wait for the battery to be completley depleted, I just got scared there not beeing able to do anything
Wait-
So you just let your phone in bootloop all night (?), then you charge it without turning it on,
waited till 30%, and then you put it in download mode and installed the firmwere?
Does it really work? 'cause I tried to do that before, and the bootloop stopped. I tought I ended up into an hard brick.
I pressed powen and tried to put the phone into download mode, but nothing.
I put the usb on my pc, and odin was actually reading it, so I tried again and again to get into the download mode.
Afret 30 minutes, i pressed power again, (and finally) the boorloop restarted.
Well um.. the phone now is probably at 60%.. I hope it wont stop again, and I hope this method will work.
