[SOLVED] CM7 bricked due to 2nd init update

Hey guys im from Brazil and i flashed JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_117-002.rar in order to get 2.2 from Claro.
I looked over http://and-developers.com/sbf:defy to check but theres no JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_117-002, the reason i ask is so i can figure what other sbf i can flash w/o losing downgrade.
Thanks.
EDIT: De-bricked with french deodexed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1063728 thanks for all the help.

it is 177 not 117, and it is 2.2.2

Ouch so no downgrade for me, i was on CM7 and made the mistake to update 2nd init, that bicked my defy so im trying to flash that sbf i had before with no lucky, endless boot animation every boot.
Im gona try nordic 2.2.2 to see what happens.
Thanks.

let us know how it goes. good luck!

The 117 was a leaked UK 2.2.1 blur rom.
Where as the 177 is the Nordic blurless 2.2.2 rom.

No deal, endless boot animation, im starting to sweat lol what else can i flash here before start to hate defy2nd init?
I know i cant flash anything lower than what i have, but what i have is not working, what can be done from here?
Thanks alot guys
EDIT: Well the phone is bricked, white led, no battery charge so entering boot loader just get me a msg low bettery and reboots, i accept any ideas.
I really think 2nd init should not be on market, realy....bricked my phone, sure i could had come here and see the thread telling ppl not to update it on CM7, yeah...a big red warning INSIDE the app would be better, things that can **** ppl up should be handled more carefully i guess, never had a brick in my hands for such a stupid reason. I hope i can rcover just like the other times.

Avoid depleting your battery if you came from CM7 5.1 without the fix for issue #130 - No charge when shutdown. Otherwise you have to go McGyver.

My middle name is McGyver
What would be that method? i think i got lucky, its charging up on the wall charger

Ah good. It involves attaching bare threads to the battery. I't somewhere mentioned on this forum.
Can't you just hold Power and Volume Up and flash the sbf with RSD Lite?

Its charged
Now i can Power and Volume Up and flash but im not sure what to flash, i think the problem is my bootloader, i found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966537 with some 2.2.1 bootloaders, is that what i need to flash?
Thanks for all the help

Flash the sbf file you downloaded on your pc with RSD Lite.

it always goes endless boot animation
btw the led is white at boot
im looking for alternatives, im dling a new sbf JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-11_BLUR_SIGN.gz, will try flash that

FLash the brazilian retail if you need, but remember to enter Stock Recovery (power + vol down) to wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache BEFORE flashing the SBF with RSD Lite.

I cant do that, when i power + vol down a "!" with the droid robot shows up.

Press both vol up and down.

[Q]Please Help: Recovery Not Working after installing ICS 4.0.3

I recently flashed ICS 4.0.3 on my Nexus S, and now when I enter Recovery it shows me the Android guy lying on his back with his chest open and having an exclamation mark on top and then the screens turns off.
I tried using a flashlight to read the screen and I tried re-flashing the 4.0.3 but to no success. I wanted to use ClocworkMod's ROM manager to boot but it says my phone is not rooted.
The phone was rooted when I had 2.3.6, but since I've updated I didn't root again.
I looked around the forum and I saw something about fastboot, but I'm a n00b when it comes to these things and I don't know how to use it..
Any idea on how to make it go into Recovery mode again? Thanks

While your phone is off; hold the power button and hold the volume up button, then you should be in recovery.

I've done that, I used a flashlight and tried to flash ICS all-over again, but nothing flashes...anything else?

Same problem
A friend of mine has the same problem unrooted stock 4.0.3 when he boots in to recovery black screen. Tried using a torch (flashlight) to see the screen but couldn't see anything on it.
A bit of research has found this section and just trying to find bright lamp to see if works as per a few of the posts on the link below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396615
and yes you can just see the text, we have used a bright lamp at different angles but not managed to do the 4.0.4 update yet...
Cheers

I've already used a flashlight and I could see part of the menu. I tried re-flashing the ICS update to 4.0.4 and the original 4.0.3 ROM, but still nothing. I couldn't tell what error it had or it said. I want to know how can I root again and try to install the ROM from ROM manager?

I remebered I saw this dead droid and seems like need to go into fastboot and download custom recovery again.
I think you should try to load in custome recovery. That is what happen to me and able to have a live droid.

When you see the android guy lying down with his chest open, just hold the power button and push the volume up button, then let it go and you should be in the bootloader menu. Then just use the volume buttons to move it down to recovery, then click install zip from sd card.

I tried that, it doesn't work (i tried flashing 2 ROMs and it didn't do anything to the phone). What custom recovery would you recommend?

Flash back to stock I guess

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
http://speedy.sh/gdtgM/recovery.img (it's stock)

thank you, I'll try flashing and reply whit the result

Finally did it. I used fastboot to re-write the recovery.img. Now it works.
Anyone can recomend a good ICS 4.0.4 ROM?

I can recommend AOSP+. It's very stable and fast (ROM benchmark 2nd place). It is very stockish, I LOVE IT. The developer is also involved in CodeName Android, a highly customizable ROM, they should update to 4.0.4 soon. If you like STOCK you should go with AOSP+, if you want more options for customization you can install CodeName in version 1.6 or wait for the Update on 4.0.4.
Also very good is Pete's Bugless Beast and Brainmaster's Stock 4.0.4

last night I got OTA for 4.0.4...dk how since I have root. I installed it and it runs sweet. thx for the help guys

how???
do u ve a phone bought in india...i have i9023 carrier airtel chennai india....i am still in 4.0.3 stock rom but manually updated....

You can just inter to bootloader, and reflash the recovery image with fastboot tools.

Try reflash original HC firmware. For me worked

yep, best bet is to reflash with original HC then format/wipe using default wiper in the recovery menu.
I also tried flashing an official ICS directly to a bootloop stricken device and it works too

Bootloop Problem
hi guys..
My P6800 also experienced this boot loop last week. My firmware is stock ICS non-rooted. I dont want to wipe data while in ICS so I reflashed my tab with stock Honeycomb using Odin. But after flashing, the tab was still stuck at the Samsung logo. I wanted to wipe data in recovery but when I press the Power + Volume Up button, the screen initially goes to the recovery screen for a few seconds and displays:
#MANUAL MODE#
Updating application...
then after a few seconds, the tab will reboot again and will be stuck at the Samsung Logo. I dont know what to do anymore. Im still able to go to the download mode though. (Power + Volume down)
Any suggestions?
Also now im not able to turn off the tab. Its still stuck at the Samsung logo. And when I try to plug and remove the charger, the tab is stuck at the battery symbol.
Help please..

I NEED HELP, Stock on Grey LG logo, can't flash with smart Flash or LG flash tool.

Well guy i don't know if this kinda of problems occur to any of you, but it first time it happen to me.
Well i was going to flash Pacman CM10 over the ICS 28b, but it didn't work so i had to flash BOOT V21E.
Well it flashed very well, i rooted it and then i start to flash the CWM and the ICS boot loader, i think its the V1.25 but i am not sure. well usually it gives the grey Lg logo. but now i wont start the phone, it stay on Grey LG LOGO, i tried the Resurrection guide but the phone doesn't stay more then a minutes or so on Download mode, i tried Smart flash and LG flash tool but as the Download mode stay only for a minute and it goes off.
i have tried most of the way that i can't fix but it didn't help at all .
What am i going to do to fix this?

You have to enter download mode manually ,, because "omap4boot" make the phone in download mode for few minutes ,,
after you enter download mode manually the flashing will be completed .
By the way ,, you posted in wrong section .

Why did you flash the ICS bootloaders with a GB rom installed?
Flash the GB bootloaders, the easyest way is by using OS_Hacking's All-in-one Tool.

Sorry Mate I didn't realized that i actually posted in here, when i saw i quickly went to general. Anyway I found out what was my problems was and everything is fixed now.
Before i flashed Cm10 i had 100% battery level, so when i start to flashed i got the error 7, well untill i fixed that some how somewhere my battery just went out for no reason, so i had 2% battery left which is no matter what i am gonna do the download Mode won't stay longer that a minute that's why i couldn't flash it, smart flash or Lg flashtool.
thanks for your help anyway and i am really sorry that i posted it in wrong section, next time i will be more cautious.

Thank Daniel,
I my opinion this all in one still has lotta bugs and everytime i flash it my better level goes down and it always comes with that funny grey lg logo thingi.
I flashed another bootloader and everything was fine i don't have that grey Lg logo anymore.

My tool (All-In-One) doesn't have any problem ,, I have fixed all them in version 1.2 .
That silver lg logo means you have the latest bootloaders , version 1.25a by wkpark (means :- Best Available for Optimus 3D) .
If you have any problem , please report it in the thread . If you want a red LG I can add it in version 1.3 (I will add bootloaders version 1.11 to give you a red LG) .
As I said in the beginning of the thread "I don't have this phone" , I can't know any problem ,, I have fixed every problem I know .
If you have any problem/idea/bug you can post them and I will fix them as well as I can .
Thanks for your support .

Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5100 problem, bootloop no recovery

hello to all,
I need your help, I have a galaxy tab P5100 completely original, with stock andorid 4.0.3, yesterday after turning it off, the power back up and goes into bootloop, the screen appears only 2 SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB 10.1 and restarts.
goes into download mode but does not go into recovery mode.
if I put it in recovery mode appears a few seconds the green robot and then restarts.
I attach it to the power supply and I do recharge to 100%, but nothing.
I put it in download mode and flash the stock firmware but nothing.
if I put it in recovery mode, the green robot takes a few seconds longer with a blue bar below and then restarts.
What do you think can this be? or what can I try?
look forward to your advice!
thank you very much!

As you are able to boot into download mode so first flash a custom recovery like cwm and then.wipe cache partition ,factory reset and dalvik cache and then try flashing stock rom i think this will work

Hello! thanks for the reply!
a curiosity, do you think it is not a hardware problem?
I had thought of this option, but as a last option, because if I put the custom recovery and keeps rebooting lose the warranty right? and I can not restore it right?
try, and I will keep you informed! I hope to solve!
