Were you trying to use an official upgrade or a custom rom? If it was an official upgrade, then you can just reflash the original rom.
If you were trying to flash a cooked rom, I hope you upgraded your Spl or you could be screwed.

[Q] S II Epic Touch 4G ODIN Re-partition issue.

I have majorly screwed up, I think.
1) Tried to root my phone.
2) Ran ODIN.
3) Accidentally had the "Re-partiton" tab checked and pressed Start.
4) ODIN hung for a while and then closed.
5) Now my phone will just do nothing. Bricked ??
6) If i power on, i see the blue light but the screen stays blank
7) I have taken out the batt as well but nothing.
8) I was trying to get i back to download mode but the light goes blue like the phone is turning on and then it blinks once and stays blue. And the screen is still blank.
Any help on what I can do at this point ?
I have tried to plug in the USB and see if ODIN recognizes it at all but nothing.

Damn Default Re-Partition in ODIN
Same thing happened to me. Had my phone rooted fine and was flashing new Clockwork Kern and Epic Touch 4G .pit I did the same thing. Done everything and still can't find a solution. Please Help? Thanks!

I did the same exact thing with the same result. Have you guys found a solution yet? I feel so stupid for not realizing I did that.

I am so sorry.....but your phones have died .

There IS a PIT file somewhere around here that could help you out if you repartition with the PIT file and also at the same time flash a recovery/stock ROM. Worst case, buy a USB JIG to force the phone into download mode.

I just bought one last night, waiting for it to come in the mail. I'll post results after I use it.

Well, while waiting for my jig to come in the mail I figured I'd give going to Sprint a shot. I brought in my phone, apparently since I had activated the phone, my insurance carried over to it. They asked me if I could leave it for two hours so I did. Since I essentially wiped the hard drive they couldn't find out why it wouldn't turn on and just gave me a new one. Problem solved.

[Q] HTC Desire S Dead! Please help!

Hello, i have a htc desire s phone 3 months and i tried installing the 2.3.5 update from the settings menu in the phone. After the installing the phone stuck on HTC Boot screen. I left it about 10 minutes or more like that, poped up the pin security screen and stuck. Then i pulled out the battery tried to reopen and again stuck, this time only on HTC boot screen. So i tried to perform factory reset via the boot menu. After the reset the phone is dead doesn't power up neither boots into the boot menu. Any solution?

I had a similar problem trying to update my Desire S. I got a red exclamation mark during the update and it sat on that for ages. So I pulled the battery and now I can even power on the device at all. Its just dead.

I still have insurance i hope it covers it since it's destroyed from the default update. I just posted here if someone can help me solve this without sending it back.

If you did nothing with phone (S-OFF etc) you should to send it back, otherwise you can lose you warranty.
Other solutions? XTC Clip? HXC Dongle?
What happen when you plug it to charger or usb? You should then check if vol down + power works (sometimes if its under charging you should hold vol down and push few times power).

No i didn't modified or used any things other than official on the phone. Also when i plug it on charger, it doesn't do anything and on pc, the computer plays the double ding sound of failed device. Anyway i guess you are right since i have it virgin without modification i can use my warranty. Thanks everyone for your replies

Hi dude I also experienced this a week ago. I solved this by plugging in my phone to the PC via USB, wait for a few minutes then booted into bootloader. Then, I entered clockwork mod recovery and wiped data and cache, finally, I restored my data from my backup, now it is running smoothly. Hope this helps.

So i just leave it on PC without pressing a thing? and it will automaticly pop up the bootloader? beacuse my pc doesn't open anything just hearing that error device sound (double ding)

I wouldn't even bother. These "get-outs" are great if you have previously rooted / S-Offed your phone, but if it is 'Virgin' - unmodified - then you are far better off following the official path for repair. I would, as it's only been 3 months, actually start by going back to the shop you bought it from and asking them to replace it - saves you from waiting 2 weeks for HTC to sort it for you.

Solid amber light with no/long boot

I know this title comes up a lot but I can't seem to find my problem.
I wanted to go back to the stock rom and I used the proper RUU but totally forgot to use the S-ON tool before hand. It installed successfully but now I get a solid amber light and so far I got my inspire to boot once only to get stuck on the splash screen with it vibrating non-stop.
And now it just vibrated once, went to a black screen and then shut off. I really don't know what to do since I can't even get to HBOOT nor will the computer recognize it.
I've done numerous batter/sim card pulls as well as clean them out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Have you tried booting into the bootloader and doing a factory reset?

I think he was referring to the bootloader as HBOOT. I had this problem while rooting my sisters Inspire. Might be a corrupted bootloader.

Last I remember my bootloader was TWRP which I guess I had accidentally installed somehow. If you think its a corrupted bootloader how would I go about solving this, if there is a solution?

Never do a factory reset on a S-OFF device....it will jam u up.

It seems that the RUU you flashed was a Froyo one and your phone was running GB so you messed the bootloader. Hit the Hack Kit IRC channel (is in the OP thread) and we will lend u a hand to fix that....

Alright so I went to the IRC and they told me they couldn't help because it did not deal with the hack kit, fair enough.
I have been able to get the phone to boot after waiting for about 10 minutes but I cannot get to the bootloader. I tried rooting the phone again this way I can turn s-on then flash the stock rom again but the phone ends up not being detected half way through the process.
I really don't know what else to do...
Forgot to mention, now my inspire boots but then fades to a greyed out screen. My computer recognizes the phone as something occupying the usb port but is not accessible. Wish the phone had a physical reset button somewhere that i can poke with a paperclip...

I will get back on the IRC this evening when I get home from work thanks again!!!

Does it say anything about QHUSB_DLOAD USB device being connected?

I ran into a similar problem not too long ago, immediate vibrating followed by a solid amber light and no phone activity (nothing on the screen at all). I knew I had a backup in Recovery, but I couldn't even get into recovery.
In order to work around this, I did the following steps.
1. Deleted the PD98IMG file from my SD card (so I could get to recovery once I made it to the bootloader).
2. Take out the battery, then put it back in.
3. Plug in the phone, and let it sit for a few minutes.
4. Start into bootloader (hold power + Volume Down)
Now, in my case I was just trying to get back into recovery. if you don't have a working recovery, or no ROM to flash, you'll want to grab a few RUU 's to try from the bootloader. Try stock GB first, then try a stock Froyo just for the heck of it.
Hope this helps! Good luck to anyone else that's stumbled into this problem.
side note: I've also heard of this "power problem" occurring to other people without bootloops or screwed up bootloaders: which is solved by doing steps 2 and 3, then it'll boot up normally.

Galaxy S6 Clone

I've got a problem. Found the firmware for s6 clone..tried to put it with adb..i got to 84% of sending from adb to phone....and stopped..the phone just has the image of the dead android with the ! and says No command..i cant turn it off or reboot it...i cant do anything. Tried all methods,every button and nothing.
If i try to connect it with USB and adb it sayd devices offline and wont take orders..i dont know how to turn it off now. Except pulling out the battery, are there any other methods?..it's been on No Command screen for 3 h already..

Because it's a clone not sure if it'll work or if many people will help you. Try turning your phone off by holding all buttons for ten seconds

Eventually it closed itself ..now i got back there to instal via adb..but it wont recognize the device cuz i forgot to install the usb driver..now if i press Power it keeps showing the message and going away..so it's not frozen anymore, but i cant get out of it ..i guess i have to wait again for battery to discharge >_>

dude.... clone smartphones are very bad don't buy them...never ! the original ones are full of lag and problems ...buying clones you wouldnt sleep good after that

Dont worry, it's not mine. Someone brought it to me to flash it because it was broken..the android worked but was full of apps that i couldnt delete. Finally i managed to make it work, flashed with SP Flash tool. Now it works,everything is fine. Thx for the reply everyone xD
