Hello world
a friend bought a verizon tp2 yesterday (I don't know why because cdma doesn't work in my country ) anyway, this guy open the box, connect the phone and try to upgrade the rom without read anything, in the midle of the rom flashing the phone get stuck and reboot and the phone never turn on again I thought "no problem, I will re-flash it in the tri-colour bootloader", but the phone is dead, no lights, no bootloader, no nothing, but when I connect the phone, windows show a new hardware message "qualcomm CDMA technologies MSM" but nothing happens.
looking the rom used by my friend, is a gsm rom
is totaly bricked ? there is a way to recover the phone?
thanks.
PS: sorry about my english
if you just flashed a custom gsm rom, then you should be fine. if shipped rom, you're f'ed. did you try pulling out the battery for a little bit?
the verizon tp2 is cdma and gsm, so it's usuable in most countries.

no, it wont wokr even if you used a custom rom, as the phone wasnt meant for gsm roms
yes, I pulled out the battery for a entire night, nothing happen, I can't get the tri-colour screen
there is something like "frankenkaiser" ? or is a paper weight?
if the fone is being recognized just try 2 flash the stock rom it mite just work don't wait 4 the bootloader show up just remove the batt. put it back then press the power and vol. down button and hold it till it comes on if u don't c the bootloader ignore it and attempt 2 flash like normal

the flashing software doesn't recognice the phone "connection error", and the power and vol keys doesn't work either
there is another method to restore the bootloader?

No you have a paperwright, does any combination work? does the light atleast come on? was the phone hard spl'd before flashing a custom rom?

no lights, no combination work, the only signal of life is the new hardware message, nothing else.

i didn't say it would work. i said he would be fine because he would be able to put it into bootloader mode and flash a proper rom. Only a gsm radio or wrong hardspl would brick his phone.

I stuck at T-mobile Logo!! Can't get in to recovery and to the phone.
Can some one help me ?
Had a similar problem. Have you applied the engineering bootloader? Otherwise I think you're stuck. As far as I know you can't flash anything using the stock SPL. I brought mine back within the first 15 days for a new one. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=453953

First, try taking out the sim card and booting the phone. I've heard of at least 1 case where that worked .
Second, have you flashed the dev bootloader onto your phone? When you power it on with back+power, do you see a screen with colored bars (stock bootloader, or a white screen with 3 skateboarding androids (dev bootloader)?
If step 1 doesn't work and you don't have a dev bootloader, there's not much you can do, other than return it to t-mobile.

I stay in Malaysia. I did call HTC but they ask me to send it back to T-mobile. I don't know why HTC no support it.
Take the battery out for at least 1 or 2 hours, then try. I have seem this problem with some units, hopefully this will be the only time it happens.

How to do factory setting from stock bootloader?
sorry
at this time there is no way to fix a phone that has lost its "system image" and only has the 'stock HTC SPL' or "rainbow bootloader" like there was on the older htc WM devices...
Yes thats what the bootloader is made for but the tools and image (dreamimg.nbh, is the name. if they keep the same naming convention as the WM ones.)

Hello Everyone,
I have a rogers captivate. I was trying to update to 2.3 android using Odin . I followed the whole process as stated. After rebooting, I got AT&T logo??? and the phone will not boot, go into recovery mode, or connect to my computer. Have I messed up my phone. Please advice.
how did you get an AT&T logo if it doesnt boot?
also what part of the process were you at? gingerbread shouldnt give the white ATT screen
it should give the "i9000" screen with gingerbread.
or were you flashing stock ATT first?
there is nothing wrong with having the wrong boot screen AND A FIX WAS RELEASED LAST NIGHT FOR GB
the fix for stock ATT has been out for a while. AND MY STOCK ROM FIXES IT TOO!
did you read the part about the button combos changing with gingerbread? or if you are on the ATT stock, use old button combos. Also you should have found my stock rom link before flashing, info there too!, its in my sig,
you have to give us more information to help you.
I beleive I was installing it to stock ATT first. That is when this happened. I was on Odin one click install. I remember the phone saying "do not disconnect the target". then all the installation was done from odin. This phone had 2.2 from samsung.Right now all that happens is that the phone starts and a flashing att logo on white background stays..
please let me know what other info is needed. i will post it all to the best possible
boot into download mode and flash ATT stock again. something messed up
are you using the "one click odin" or the other odin?
and what gingerbread are you trying after?
how do i do that. i have tried vol up+down+power combo. still the same flashing logo with no menus. i was using one click odin. and i was still on installing stock android. never got the chance to go to 2.3
If you can't get into download mode through the 3 button way you might need the jig. You got lucky since you're still able to boot up some have perma brick so try the jig and flash back to stock
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
HOLD VOL UP + DOWN
the plug in USB to PC.
keep buttons held until screen comes on!
i asked which gingerbread you were going to do AFTER
What is the build number on your phone, 4 numbers printed under the battery, mine is a 1010 for example, which mean oct. Of 2010 is when it was built. Some phones 1010 and after will not accept the one click odin rom and cause a bootloop like you are having, Try an odin package from TRusselo's sig instead.
my packages dont have the bootloaders. that might be whats screwed up with blinking att boot.
need download first before anything. i do have a GB bootloader package separately
something else:
try removing battery,
plug in USB to PC and Phone
Hold both Volume buttons
put battery back in.
should get you download mode
I really have noidea about what gingerbread i was after, i guess i wanted just the stock android without any custom software from samsung. I am total noob here as far as androids go.
the number on the battery say 2010.12.20 and the last forr nos under the battery at s/n are 11.02.
what is a jig. how do i use it. My phone cannot connect to the computer.
When I try to reset my device by any method, whether usb or power combos, it goes into either a. ATT logo flashing every few secs. or b. battery charging logo with nothing happeining.
Also my phone cannot be seen on my computer
gingerbread isnt for noobs
NOT THE DATE ON the battery
UNDER the battery ON THE PHONE
4 digit number
if you dont know what a jig or gingerbread or any of this stuff is,
you shouldnt have touched your friggin phone!
My apologies. the number is 1102. I understand I have screwed up. Any chance of having a working phone again.
GO GOOGLE A CAPTIVATE JIG AND BUY ONE
you wont be able to make one if you cant follow instructions.
that is your only hope. if not your phone is F'ed up perminantly.
your ONLY HOPE AFTER, is if your phone *somehow stops* turning on *forever*
and you send it back for warranty, and play dumb! ..... ..... ... .. .
PROGRAMMING a phone cant be learned it 5 minutes.
HELL you cant even read the friggin instructions (written for experienced users) in 5 minutes
this was an expensive lesson on researching and learning before doing

Yes there is. Might be a little complicated tho. You have some reading to do my friend.
Tru, I'll let you handle it but HiTechChef, you might've to go in for waranty and exchange it saying it did that after you tried to update through Kies. They'll check it and give you another one.
Thanks I will try this method

Lol That kind of subtly is lost here... noone is picking up on your suggestion...
and thats how its going to stay,

resistance is futile.
there it is... i laughed... all is good again...

Where did you get the stock ROM? What version of Android did your phone have when shipped?
i had ics on it before i tried to downgrade. i downloaded the stock rom from another site. it was the original stock rom no ota updates i believe. i dont remember the android version.

You haven't clarified whether it was a ROM or RUU, where you got the file, or whether your phone was shipped with Gingerbread. That is important information. I think at this point I'm going to assume you flashed a Froyo RUU on a phone shipped with Gingerbread.

It was new a year ago? Yeah, you flashed a Froyo RUU on a phone shipped with GB. That messes your bootloader. glevitan has a guide that has, among other things, instructions on how to fix that, but given that AAHK has been retired I don't know if the files to fix it are still available.

AAHK is retired. The server hosting the files it pulls from may very well be gone. And it's not AAHK itself that will fix it anyway; it's just instructions by AAHK's author using files hosted on AAHK's site. It's not included in the AAHK itself.
AAHK has a ton of very clear warnings saying NOT to flash a Froyo RUU on a phone shipped with GB. I would strongly advise that you read more closely next time. You will need to wait for glevitan to show up and see if he can help.
ok. thanks for the help.

As the subject states I have a Roger's Razr HD (XT925) that was GSM unlocked for use here in the US. It was rooted and bootloader unlocked and used for a while without problem. I recently decided to upgrade to a new phone and did a factory reset of the HD in preparation to sell it. It got stuck in boot loop but I was able to boot fine in recovery and everything worked fine. I forgot power it off and the battery drained. When plugged into AC it will not charge. Plug it into a PC and USB connection sounds like it's loading drivers. Device manager shows QHSUSB_DLOAD. Any attempt to boot into recovery mode when plugged in yields a couple green flashes from the LED and that's it. When unplugged, absolutely nothing. I did make a Motorola data adapter and connected the phone to the PC. The green light comes on for a few seconds and then goes out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I really need to revive this phone.
QHSUSB_DLOAD is a perma-brick, unfortunately. I haven't seen anyone on here recover from it.

Thanks. I'll check it out.
So I had chance to check out the link and I think the solution to the problem is simpler than that. I know the phone was booting into fastboot when it had a charge. It's possible my DIY factory cable isn't a good one. The RAZR/MAXX/AtrixHD have a simple two pin battery that can charged by opening the case. The battery for the HD has 4 pins however I cannot find the pinout for it. Can any tell me which are the positive and negative? I can cut and hook up an USB cable to them to charge the battery directly and then I should be able to boot the phone and repair the ROM.
Edit: I was able to get my hands on a multimeter and found that the there's 1 positive pin and 3 negative ones?!?!
did you try to leave your xt 925 plugged to pc for little while, then attempt to get it into fastboot?

Yes. I left it overnight.
Well then you cant do jack , i noticed battery stays ok in xt925 while on fastboot but I guess if batty is completely out, it is a different story. You will revive it man, gotta get hold of factory cable or a spare battery
OK... I have been able to charge the battery and can get to fastboot. Now I just the Rogers stock ROM because I thought I had the bootloader unlocked but don't. I found a couple links but the site is dead. The phone boots directly into AP fastboot.

Comment out TZ/Partition in XML when downgrading and already upgraded device. You're gonna need the tz/partition from a 4.4.2 build and flash those I believe. There's lots of info on this here just don't have it handy to link for you.

I don't find anywhere in the XML that has a tz/partition statement. Being that this is a Canadian device I only had the stock ICS on it.

Hi, Could anyone point me in the direction of an RUU for a UK O2 for my presently bricked S? I'm hoping that it, in combination with the All-in-One kit, will enable me to escape my present state of affairs. Pretty new to this recovery malarky so any pointers would be extremely welcome. Basically tried to unroot my handset but ended up with an unuseable lump instead. Boots OK but freezes at the unlock screen (although I can get the settings bar to drop down it won't let me access any of the sub menus). Surely someones been here before? Thanks

Pull the battery out n put back in then press and hold volume down + power button, that will boot u into bootloader then try factory reset option. If that cant be done google "shipped roms" and hopefully ul find the correct ruu there.

Pretty sure there isnt any ruu's for orange network. U can search if u want but dont think there is. U could try a WWE or Europe ruu (unbranded) but thats up to u, and i dunno if it will work. U mite need to make a gold card to bypass the cid check.
