Mesmerize won't boot

My phone will not turn on. I was doing a factory reset, but it seemed to freeze, so I did a battery pull. Now my phone is either stuck on the samsung logo, or an empty batter symbol with a white circle. Please help.

Only thing I can think of is to try to get into download mode (remove the battery, plug the phone into a computer, and press the volume down button). If you can get to download mode, you should be able to flash a stock rom via Odin (instructions for this can be found in multiple threads on this forum.

Yes, do that.

download odin and the stock 2.1 build. then place your phone in download mode. flash the rom the way the instructions tell you too. then walk into your local uscell and complain til they give you a new mesmerize. that should solve all your probs

Got mine to reboot
i got my samsung mesmerize to turn on by pressing in the startup button on the right AND the volume control button on the left (up, don't know if that matters) at the same time for a few seconds (at least 5) and eventually the SAMSUNG logo appeared and it is now working fine.
I hope this helps anyone who has the same issue!

lately EVERY time i reboot my phone (running ics build 2, 3 and 4, stock kernel) it gets stuck on samsung logo.. somehow my phone will only boot into the frigging cm7 recovery which as im sure youre all aware is rather useless to fix any problems im having in ics and leaves me unable to flash, backup, or restore anything. it's quite frustrating and i have no idea how to fix it but by going back to bml, re-partitioning, then odin ei20 modem, cm7 fixed recovery, then flash back to ics but doin this every reboot it getting very tedious..
ive read about recovery loops, but the fix doesnt work for me as i cant mount the ICS /system partition in cm7 recovery...and ive been all over trying a zillion things to get it to work and havent pulled dmesg or logcat but if someone thinks it would be useful ..i wish i knew why EVERYTHING is great, then BANG, reboot and it's FML city.

[Q] Need to flash stock recovery to Huawei U8150 (Ideos, T-Mobile Comet)

Okay, so I killed the ext. speaker to my Comet and want to have it repaired so I need to flash it back to stock, completely, including recovery. Does anyone know where I can find the stock Android recovery? Is there perhaps an ODIN image floating around somewhere that could be useful?

I have similar question.
I have custom ROM on my Ideos and i want to turn back everything in stock condision.
Do i have first unroot than back stock rom with UPDATE procedure "Pressing the END key and VOLUME UP key, and then press the
POWER key to power on the phone and enter the Software Upgrade Mode."
Does the unrooting remove Clockword mod?

See, that's the problem. You can flash a stock rom, which will kill root, but that doesn't get rid of the clockwork mod. That's why I needed the original recovery for the stock rom. Although, I eventually gave up, ran the phone over with my car, and then took it in to be swapped on black tie protection.

[Q] My USB port isn't working; how to get rid of CM7 and restore Froyo?

My phone is dying prematurely, with my camera crapped out and my usb port not fully functional. My phone can charge but it can't be recognized by a computer anymore.
I'm sending it in for a replacement, but I realized now that I can't flash back to Froyo easily. I'm stuck in CM7, and factory reset brings me back to a fresh CM7. I don't want Motorola to use the fact that I used CM7 as an excuse to charge me $300.
Can someone help me please?

you can try restore froyo nandroid backup via custom recovery...

I'll have to remenber tha latest SBF that you flashed on your devide, have a friend with a Defy, flash it on that Defy, give him your SD card to put a full nandroid backup on it ...

basically you need to restore a nandroid backup of froyo of your region since you cannot flash the full sbf. There are already nandroid backups available in xda.
If you have wifi use a simple app called Ftpdroid to copy it to your memory card and restore.
If you do not have wifi then try coping the file using a card reader and restore.

My computer does not recognize my phone when it's in Bootloader mode.
I installed the Nordic Rom to use CM7. So I need a nandroid backup. Does anyone know where I can get one?

Whenever I try to connect my phone to USB...
It says there's an error with the device. Windows 7 reports an unknown device, and error 47. That's why I believe there is something wrong with my usb port.
Progress:
I can't load into CM7 anymore, nor the stock rom. I can access the CM7 boot menu however, and go into Clockwork.
I tried a Motorola factory reset, and I tried changing the boot sequence (stock, 2nd-init, 2nd-boot) but no luck.
I'm a little stuck here guys

Have you installed USB drivers? Check all in beginners guide.

You talk about your Defy not being recognized as USB disk?
Did you disable USB Debugging? So the USB Mass Storage option can be enabled after.

The data function in my usb port isn't working, my phone cannot be recognized at all. Even with three different cables and drivers installed.
Any ideas?
Is there a way to repair the port?

Could it have water damage? If it could, let the cap open and let it rest for a couple if days. Open it up and check for visible signs of damage/corrosion. Would not do this if you are trying to claim warranty.
To restore, go to the sbf threat, there are links to the individual threats of each. Normally, you can find there the nand. Place it in the right folder and restore it with cwm. Remove the battery and go to stock recovery. Wipe cache and data. Try to remember what sbf you were on, but don't think it matters much... Don't guaranty it will work. You could try to find someone who wants to try it as they can always flash a sbf if it doesn't work.

i can help u with a nand of any sbf u want...just send me a pm or post here and in 1 hour i will upload it
just be sure u say the correct one, coz any boot cm7 version changes ur kernel, and the nand wont work
LE: after u restore the nand, just use the moto recovery, wipe data/cache so ur phone is back to stock, no root no custom recovery and u can take it to warranty
LLE: i guess i need to make a nand of the tmobile us version also so u can return it to the shop

Hmmm
Hmm but I flashed a nordic sbf. :/
I don't mind restoring nordic though, as long as there's no sign of cyanogen mod. I can replace the bootlogo and animation there.

I have used Cyan 7 for months with none of the problems you are describing. I also dont use any base and wonder why people are so pushy on using a base.
I go into recovery, Wipe all, Then install cyan then gapps.
It sounds to me you did or didnt do something during install.
Download the newest cyan 7 rom
Get into the stable recovery and wipe everything, even dalvik under advanced
Flash cyan
Flash gapps
reboot.
I promise it will work

Base doesn't matter, it gets replaced by stable releases. I think he tries to restore it to claim warrant.

I think you may have overreacted and made things worse. Sometimes my data function stops working in CM7 - it fixes itself after a warm reboot or two.

Defy down

Hi,
I have one Defy M525.
I was using the Froyo 2.2.2
JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_179-6.1_BLUR_SIGN_SIGNED_USAJRDNEMARAB_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf
Then i flash the new Gingerbread:
CM9-NIGHTLY-120317-Defy.zip
+ CM7_Kernel-signed.zip
and gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip
Its ok here.
I realise that i need to go again to Froyo with blur to import all my contacts on my Blur account and i did this:
Wipe data/factory
Wipe Cache
Then with RSDLite5.6 i flash one firmware.sbf (fixed SBF), i think i did a mistake here but the phone still work with cyanogenmod.
Then with RSDLite5.6 i did the full SBF flash of:
Android 2.3.3 "Gingerbread" !!BETA!!
4.5.1-112 Orange GB Blur
(shadow-112_ORANGE.sbf)
After the process was completed and appear "PASS", the phone normally restart in this fase. The phone was down and never wake up.
I had good battery level in that moment.
Now my Defy is off and i try turn on and NOTHING happens.
Try turn on with Power up and buttom up (+) to enter on bootloader mode to flash again but NOTHING happens.
There is any chance of some serious prob happens flashing this ROM?
On last flash there is any chance of battery goes out?
Someone can help me?
THANK YOU!!!

[Q] DIAG mode NOT WORKING IN CARBON JB

So i have succesfully flashed my GAPPS and have it running smooth.but in my angst to get the device rooted and flashed i never did what i needed to in QPST..now i cant get back into diag mode for the system to load the device on the port. I see that people are just flashing back stock and doing it, but from what ive been seeing lately are alot of missing links and bricked photons. Is there anyway i can get this done with my phone and sanity intact. The phone is finally running almost flawlessly on the new rom..But i HAVENT ADDED IT TOO CRICKET YET!!!!OMG

You could try booting into recovery mode and see if QPST recognizes the device there. On my previous device, there is a similar issue where the hidden menu dialer codes don't want to work (or work properly) when a specific ROM is installed on the phone. Someone figured out that while CDMA toolbox (or whatever it's called) wouldn't recognize a device with that ROM running, it found the same device just fine when the phone rebooted into the recovery.

still didnt work
I tried the recovery meth still no go. I downloaded diff drivers no luck..I really dont wanna pay the Aholes at the store 50.00 to finish the remaining 2% of what i started.. Plus theyre gonna pull the whole i can only get talk and text bs..!!!!!! Ive been looking at different threads but i just dont see anything that sticks out as a solution. No ##DATA# ##DIAG# no keypad combo ive tried works...HELP DONATIONS will certainly be applicable to this matter for anyone who can truly guide me through this bs..

Just use RSD to downgrade. There's 2 lines to remove, and if you go back to ICS I think there's some additional lines.
Next time, take a backup before flashing anything!

You're not supposed to to QPST stuff when you're not on stock rom. Necessary files on the phone are simply not included. Flash stock JB FXZ, do your QPST stuff, flash back Carbon. No other way.

Any QPST stuff won't work on CM10.1 based ROM. I used to run QPST on stock ROM. You should flash back to your stock ROM using RSD Lite. After finish flashing to your own carrier,then you are good to go to mod your phone.

What software is that second image? It looks like it's running on Windows, not the phone. But it's definitely not radiocomm or RSD. Looks useful.
