Dont freak out yet.
Huh. Thats kinda strage that it wont even boot into recovery, Becasue when i thought i bricked my droid incredible, I had to go into the recovery menu tell it to mount my phone as a disk drive, After that i had to put the OS back on my phone though a zip file,(Htc sense is my OS) And do a factory reset. So the chances of your phone being bricked are very slim its difficult to birck an android phone but i would try to find a method that will allow you to hook your phone up to your computer so then you could just find your OS as a zip and install it on your phone.
how
no way to find it computer doesnt see my phone nor will the phone do anything wont boot in recovery or download mode or boot period for that matter
It would REALLLLLLLY help if you used punctuation. Commas, periods, and capital letters really help people to read your garbled mess.
I was trying to put my phone back to S-ON after trying all the roms, i used the method of installing an unroot method i found on the web on my phone through terminal emulator.
Now my phone won't turn on, i've taken out the battery, left it for a bit and put it back in, and still won't work.
It';s definetly bricked, but i was thinking, if carphonewarehouse can't fix it, will someone let me know if they know anyways that i can fix it please.
It still charges just that it wont turn on no matter what i try.
THANKS
can you get in recovery mode?
I own a htc sensation 4G. The phone was S-off and was rooted. I am new to android but i did follow every procedure perfectly till the following happened.
I downloaded the ota update. Whilst updating it, the update was successful but now my phone just shows a blank display. The phones on, i can receive calls too but its a blank black display with no touch capable.
I tried to run recovery (PG58IMG), it was successful, but when rebooting same problem.
From boot(vol down + power), if i go into recovery, nothing happens, phone simply boots up
Same is the result with factory reset. No matter what i try to do, the phone accepts the command and boots up leaving me with an on phone and no screen.
Next i tried RUU , RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.45.531.1_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_208218_signed and the RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.29.531.2_Radio_10.42.9007.00P_10.11.9007.15_M_release_193714_signed VERSIONS.
It runs but, when it comes to the point where it says, waiting for fastboot, There is a htc screen(white and black text) and the phone just wont go into fastboot. ten odd mins later i get a msg saying error 177, usb not found on my cpu and the only option on screen is exit. When i pull out the usb from the phone, for abt 5 seconds it shows the fast boot screen with RUU written below the basic information and it goes back to the htc screen. Only way to cancel is to pull out the battery...
Now everything that i could find on the forum and net, i have tried.. Please tell me if there is another option or am i doing something wrong???
My big problem at the moment is that im not in the states, am in India and cant take the phone to a service centre... PLS HELP
Any inputs guys?? really stuck here

RUU in general has a problem, the program keeps waiting for fastboot whilst i only have a screen with an htc logo on it. Only after waiting for a couple of hrs and disconnecting the usb cable, i get a fastboot screen with ruu written for abt 5 secs and it automatically goes back to the HTC screen..
I have tried 2 different ruu's and same end result.. so so..
Have u tried talking to a tech at HTC?

i did today, they told me that everything possible that he would advice me to do, you have already done so. There is nothing left to be done. Get it over at a service centre to check for hardware defects or a possible re-programing of the phone.
The thing is, In india, htc sells like hot cakes, but their back-end service is horrendous. Service centers are not htc's but third party and they charge crazy sums for a customer doesn't have a 2nd option.
Hence am considering and trying all other options before going to a htc service center.
Is there anything that i have missed out in trying from my end???
Not that I know of, it sounds like the ota bricked ur phone and I'm not that good at that part. My knowledge only goes so far, sorry man.
Have you tried getting the PC to recognise the phone in fastboot?
If you have working fastboot then you can normally recover it.
Pull battery, reinsert, volume down & power then connect to PC.
Open cmd prompt as admin, cd to your fastboot folder, then enter "fastboot devices" and post the result.
Instructions on fastboot/adb if you are unfamiliar in the sticky guide to everything in dev forum.

#mugetsu666 , i doubt the phones bricked, whilst everything is not working, aka fastboot, recovery, factory restore etc, the phone does boot and is on. How do i know this?? well, when i dial my no, the phone does ring but the screen is dead, as in black.. the 4 tabs below too r lit up but just no response..
#stringer7 , i did all of that already but whilst u asked me to post results, something just struck me.. when the phones put on usb, it charges and i can take it to fastboot too, but, on the task bar far right in devices, the pc is trying to search drivers for usb. Thats always on, even after leaving the phone on load overnight.. The pc is always searching for drivers and when i unplug usb, the no drivers found error does pop up..
"device driver software not successfully installed", is the windows error
Is the above info of any help?? considering the fact that i can take the phone on fastboot usb, but on the pc screen comes the error that usb not found or waiting for fastboot...
help
----------
Can you get a message from "fastboot devices" as above? If so you should be able to run the correct ruu to recover.

The thing is, that the comps not reading the phone as a android device.
It charges the phone but doesn't read it. Hence cant do anything..
Any RUU doesnt move beyond the usb detection point leaving me with an "ERROR 170", cannot read usb..
Did the ota do this or does this look like an hardware error?
The 1.45 ruu of t-mobile seems like the most common one, but i cant even put that 1 to the test cause it just doesnt go beyond detection
Is there a chance that my problem could have cause a motherboard or other hardware problem???
My htc inspire is stuck on the htc boot logo and i have RUU for it but i dont have the drivers and my computer wont regonize the phone plz help.
download htc sycn: http://www.htc.com/www/software/htc-sync/
Htc sync doesnt work
I already have htc sync and it wont regonize it and I have to Have it S-OFF to manually load a rom so i need the fastboot drivers and the regular drivers plzz help need them
Take it to the nearest phone lab
Pull the battery and reboot it. the battery cover is a little hard to get off some phones, so I recommend slotting a finger nail between the cover and the volume keys, rather than the nail nick (which does absolutely nothing).
If all else fails, then root it with AAHK (one step, very simple), boot into CWM recovery(turn on phone, THEN hold volume. Don't do both, or else your phone just gets stuck somewhere and you'll have to pull the battery), and flash a stock sense ROM, or any other rom at that. You'll lose all your settings and stuff, but if you want your phone to work....
CWM should give you the option to mount SD card on your phone, so you can copy and paste the .zip for your rom.
You can also try running a nandroid recovery, and restoring the nand (which would basically reinstall everything and take maybe 10 minutes), but I doubt that would work since it would be after whatever messed up your phone.
Best of luck.....
Maybe you could tell us what you tried to do before it got stuck.
It probably did not just happen without you trying to change something^^
Do you already have a recovery installed?
And it still is S-ON?
Hi all.
im guessing from what im finding here my wifes phone is hardbricked. she was just texting a friend when it just froze. it would not reboot or anything. i did a force reboot and all i get is a black screen. not even a charge LED.
when i plug it into the computer i get hs-usb qdloader 9008.
both of our phones are stock.
what do i need to get the phone back.
its a S8+ from verizon.
SM-G955U
REV1.0
what do i need to get the firmware back on it, just want to keep it stock
of course i would like to have everything let alone, but im guessing no luck in that with this problem
thanks for any pointers
UPDATE.
so at this point i dont know whats going on. at first the phone was not doing anything, but now i can get into the bootloader menu. i have tryed most the options other then factory wipe since i need to save whats on the phone.
so my question.
if i can get in the download mode or whatever and reload the BL. will it wipe any saved data on the phone.. or is there something else that also might need to be reloaded
and im going to try and wipe the cache if i can get into the menu
i have not messed with loading software on this, so any help would be loved
Are you able to access recovery mode on boot?
