I've been using a ROM (Black Diamond 3.0) since about 9/25-ish....and just now I turned off my phone and its not going past the splash screen of the rom! what do i do? i keep taking off the battery etc...All i want to do is bypass, get contacts out and reflash something else now please help! me without a working cell phone!
Did you install battery Status and overclocked ?
If it can't boot, I'm afraid you will have to do a hard reset (hold comm + talk buttons - the ones on top left and right) and press the reset. The display should show black and ask you to push the call button to confirm the reset. It should restore your flashed ROM back to its release state. You will lose all the contacts and appointments tho...
yeah...thanks lost everything but at least i have a phone....not having a phone in this day and age = nightmare...
Hi, first let me say im sorry if this has already been covered somewhere, i have spent all day searching the wiki and forum to no avail. If the solution is already here please point me in the direction and delete this thread.
I have just flashed my kaiser from the original vodafone WM6 ROM to Dutty's WM6.1 Hybrid v2 5.2.19716/5.2.19700. At first everything seemed fine, then when i tried to restore the backup id created with sprite backup it restored, reset and now wont get past the loading screen. It shows the vodafone splash screen then duttys htc screen then goes back to vodafone.
I used Hardspl 3.29 before flashing. I tried hard reseting which made no difference. i cant get into the bootloader (tried the camera, power reset thing loads) and i cant connect to my pc as it wont go past the splash screen.
I had a look at MTTY but it doesnt give the options described in the instructions and after reading the warnings about MTTY decided i shouldnt mess around with what i dont understand.
Any help will be greatly apreciated, i love my phone and the idea that ive just broken it scares the crap out of me.
Thanks
Sandy

first, are you SURE you can't get into bootloader?
I know it sounds stupid, but try REALLY pushing the camera button in while pushing the stylus into the reset hole. Once you get to the bootloader (tri-color screen), try flashing a different ROM
good luck

I agree here a lot of people don't realize the Camera button is a two stage button. It stops at Half-Press then you can push again to get Full Press. You need a Full Press to get into bootloader.
Just to clarify.
Press and hold the camera button and at the same time insert stylus in reset hole and hold until bootloader comes up.
In other words, do not let up until bootloader shows. It should take around 2-3 seconds.
yea ive been doing that. After trying many times i have found that holding the camera button down for around 2 minutes after the htc dutty series screen comes up brings up a white screen with the error message;
"the device is unable to boot either because you have turned off the device incorrectly or tried to install an application from an untrusted source. press send to reset or any other key to cancel"
The message dissapears if i let go of the camera button, and resets back to the vodafone screen and stays there. If i press the send button same thing happens (just an idiot check but the send button is the green pick up button right?) ive tryed the enter button and both soft keys but all to the same result. I have tried holding down each button on that screen as well and the error message stays as long as i hold the button but when i let go it just goes back to the vodafone splash screen and stays there.
I have tried holding the stylus with the camera button all the way through to this error message, doesnt seem to make a difference.
just to clarify, ive done what you suggest and still cant get into the bootloader.
Thanks for any help, this is driving me mad.
hold the camera button and use the stylus to press the reset button, and continue holding the camera button until the bootloader screen pops up.
i used to let go the camera button as soon as the screen go black, but then it just reset the device instead of going into the bootloader...
oh forgot to mention. Shotly after the dutty series screen comes up i get the window appearing sound but nothing comes on screen. suggests to me that maybe its trying to tell me whatswrong but i can see what it is. maybe, i dunno..

Im holding the camera button for around 2 minutes before it does anything, then i get the above error message.
Do you have a storage card installed?
yes. tried taking it out and doing the same thing. no different.
anything else i could try?

OK But are you also holding your stylus in the Reset Hole?
If yes, And you can't get into Bootloader, well I think you are "boned"
Yes im doing that. Boned? really? What about the error message that eventually comes up? isnt there anything i can do from there? Any other way of reseting it so maybe the bootloader works?
And if its really broken, do you recon my network will send me another or have i just properly voided the warranty?
I've looked all over for the answer to this, and I've tried multiple things but nothing seems to be working. Last night my phone froze (for no apparent reason) so I pulled the battery. The first boot screen came and went but the 2nd doesn't show...it stays blank and then eventually I hear the noise my phone makes when it's fully started up, but the screen is still blank. I have to push menu and the home and call keys a couple of times to get the screen to turn on, and then I can see everything seems to be up in the background, but when I go to unlock my phone it doesn't recognize me pressing the buttons (to unlock the SIM) so I can't get any further. When I do home+power combination, the screen with the triangle and exclamation point comes up, but it won't recognize any of my button presses. I tried to use fastboot to bring it back, and it says everything went through but when it starts back up the same thing happens, it won't recognize me pressing the screen to unlock the phone. It will take maybe the first 2 keys I press..and it will lag while it takes them...but after that it doesn't take anything else. I don't know what to do so if anyone can help or might know what could have happened. Like I said, I was just on the browser last night looking around and it froze so I pulled the battery. Oh and I'm running JF 1.50 if that matters. Thanks guys.
Did you install hardSPL?
If not, maybe you can create a goldcard (search in this forum) and flash the basic system on it again!
I have the SPL for Sapphire ported to Dream.
I might have to take it in to T-Mobile because it boots up and just automatically freezes at the main screen.
The only thing I'm worried about is that I changed the first boot screen so if I do end up having to get a new phone I'm going to have to pay for it
wipe wipe wipe
no need to take it to t mob just wipe take the sd card put it in a sd card reader load up the root/hack rom and go from there no need to take it back cause t mob will tell hell no when they try ro boot it up
I don't know how to wipe it without going through the bootloader and that won't load up.
I also don't know how to flash an update without going through bootloader so I'm stuck.
try this
pull the battery hold down power + home put battery in without taking your fingers off thoses buttons wait till bootloader loads. it happent to me an endless loop everytime i pulled the battery it would power up without touching the battery so thats what i did
I have the stock 'v10c' ROM on a 'Rogers' LG Optimus 3D.
This morning I was using the Google+ Android client and - without closing the app - pushed the power button to put the phone to sleep and put it in my pocket.
About 15 mins later I pulled the phone out of my pocket and it was dark, but the touch countrols were all lit up. I know that usually isn't good news. The phone was unresponsive.
I pulled the battery and tried to re-boot. It gets to the Rogers screen and then boot-loops, with a flash of the Rogers screen each time it restarts a cycle. Roughly 15 seconds apart.
I did vol+down+Power (guessing based on other phones) and it booted into a recovery (3e) menu that only offered me the chance to wipe all user data. Ok. I moved the cursor down using vol+down and sletected "yes" with Home. The phone then presented a triangle logo and the green android and sat there.
Meanwhile...I Googled. After about 10 mins I pulled the battery again and did the Vol+down+3D button+Power boot to the REAL recovery menu.
I then did a wipe / factory reset from the recovery menu. I have assumed the Home button is the enter button (BTW).
Again the triangle and the green android appear. They are still there 10 mins later.
Not sure what to do now...the phone won't boot and the factory reset won't fix it. But it isn't dead. I can still get to recovery, so in theory this is fixable. I just don't have time for it right now. :-/
I was wondering if maybe the phone had updated OTA in my pocket and I didn't realise it and I may have messed up the process. But I have never seen a phone do an OTA update without first notifying the user and seeking confirmation...so I that probably isn't the case.
Very annoying.
I'm posting this here in case anyone else has the same experience.
Anyone have any advice?
[Update: The Menu button is the enter button...not Home. So I did a real factory reset and the phone now boots to the "Welcome to your new phone" screen. *WHEW!*]
Uhmm... if Menu button is home button that means u have problem with build.prop. I never met with this kind of problem, however I think u just should turn on usb mode in cwm, put a ROM on phone, flash it and see how this will be. Don't forget to backup ur rom.

Hi there,
I've got the same problem with my LG P920.
Then I read your thread and now I can tell you how to fix...
The recovery is the right way to fix, but the homebutton is not the menu button.
You have use the Options Button the first from the left side or the 3d-button.
Than you came to factory default and you can restart youre device.

Anyone know the glitch that is causing this?

If've got the boot-loop for the first time and it happend after a reboot comand on the comand app...
I have the same problem and no idea why it happens ..
I had this 2 times in one week! very anoying..
Hey Guys, I'd Like to ask a question , very weird going on about my device... Only one time I got that Lovely Icon (exclamation mark) with a phone sign followed by a computer, yes that means that i am in download mode, i fixed it but once i got passed that small error my phone has been acting up.. I've tried CM10 keeps restarting by itself once in a while, I had tried going COMPLETELY going to stuck by using a Youtube video on how to unbrick it... NO luck. This time it freezes up and all applications become unresponsive, Facebook FORCECLOSE and other apps& and restarts, once is in the home screen i hold the power button and i only get one option "POWER OFF" its very weird because I remeber there was "DATA IS SET "ON" ETC, other settings in the phone had been re-enabled for ex. haptic feedback vibration. i had that turned off and it came back on by itself, second setting is the lock screen i cant set up a lock setting because once i press the unlock button and wait about 5 seconds it would go directly to the home screen W/O asking to enter to any patter. I tried gingerbread 2.3.6, with this rom all apps are UNAVAILABLE.. YES they dont open up.. EVEN facebok.. I took out the battery, turned it back on, and once it gets to the "rethink possible" keeps restarting the att motion until it finally restarts the whole phone and it keeps doing this.. I wanted to ask you guys if my phone is bricked or something because is really annoying. Thanks !
A brick would be where you wouldn't be able to boot up. A virus would be wiped out when flashing a new rom. When installing a new rom, did you also format /system? Sometimes that irons out some bugs. Maybe doing a wipe on your dalvik and cache seperatly could help.
