Not development. Moved to Q&A.
At what point did you get stuck at the red m? What had you just flashed?
It sounds like a problem with the boot image. Are you sure you used the correct one (wifi or 3g)?
Try holding power and volume up for a good 15 seconds yo try to kill power. If you manage it, use power and the volume button (I think down) to get into fastboot and reflash a new download of the right boot image.

i updated and now it wont fully boot up. i get to the screen where the honeycomb is going up and down and it just stays there. im having trouble getting it into recovery from adb so if anyone knows what to do please save me.
How long are you waiting because the first time mine booted in 3.2 it took about 10 mins.
Long enough for the xoom to die. I just want to be able to boot into recovery but when I try to from fastboot it doesn't do anything. I hope it's not bricked and there's something that can be done.

Do you have CWM installed? If so, boot the Xoom and at the Moto logo wait about 2-3 secs then press the Vol Down button. This will give you the option for recovery, press Vol Up to get in.
i do have it installed but it wont let me get into it through fastboot or those instructions.
do you think this is bricked?
Hmm. I'd keep resetting it (hold power and Vol Up) and trying to get into CWM. I can't see why this wouldn't work. To reiterate, you want to press vol down after about 2 secs of the Moto dual core image.
awesome, i didnt realize i had to press it down. i kept holding it and getting into fastboot. thanks for the help guys!
Glad to help
Hey guys,
I followed the instructions from the following URL:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1227618
In regards to Rooting my Phone which is now running Telus Stock Gingerbread.
I have no problems flashing the Speedmod kernel with odin but i am unable to boot into recovery mode [vol up & down + power button].
I've tried the [Home + Vol up + power button] but still no luck. Wondering why other Telus Fascinate owners are able to boot into recovery when I can't.
Does anyone know why I can't get into recovery mode?
Thanks,
I did hear that a few of the telus fascinates do not have the actual hardware option enabled to get into recovery mode.
Has anybody else that owns a telus fascinate having problems getting into recovery mode?

When you are trying to boot into recovery (holding vol up&down+power) are you letting go of the power once the boot screen appears (The one that says SGH-T959D)?
I notice that if I don't let go out power it will continuously reboot. I see that another user in the link you posted is having issues with that CWM. Maybe try posting in that thread or wait for a response.
Are you looking for simply stock 2.3.3 rooted with CWM? Or something like CM7?
Thanks for you reply.
I would like to post it in that forum but I do not have enough posts yet to post in the other development forums.
I do let go of the power button at the right time because I'm use to getting it into 'Download' mode without any issues. Plus the fact that I have also tried almost every Volume up, down and home combination to try get it into recovery. No such luck through.
All I'm wanting right now is to simply get Gingerbread rooted on my phone.
Sorry guys it finally worked after numerous trys.
Cheers

Sorry about this question, but I have a blank screen at my samsung captivate after doing failed flashing with odin. I have bricked my Galaxy? No matter what I do always show me blank screen (usb port, charging the phone, power on, etc)-
Thanks and wait any reply asap.
What firmware are you currently running? Where in the flashing did it fail? Provide more information please.
If you can enter download mode (Home + Vol Down + Power) then you can simply flash it again. In this case, your device is not bricked at all. If you cannot enter download mode, you may be in a bind, but please provide more information to see if we can help.
Also, this would have been the proper forum to post in.
Hi upichie, well, I've tested the gingerbread from this link "/posts/celulares/12869092/Personalizar-Samsung-Captivate-a-fondo_.html at taringa" and during the process of flashing is stuck at factory.rfs, I've tested 2 times and always get the same and I havent a failed download of the rom file.
Then after searching in google, I've read that I can test another rom, then I've downloaded the 2.3.4 from this link "/comunidades/soandroid/3821213/(Aporte)Actualizar-Samsung-Captivate-Android-2_3_4-+-Root.html at taringa" and stuck at cache.rfs a long time more than 20minutes then I remove from usb and then I've got the white screen at the entire display like a torch no matter what I do. Sorry by my english people .
try to access download mode by take out the battery and press vol up + vol down + power or vol down + home + power .when u can access to download model and flash again wit stock rom
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Alright I'll start off with my phone stats and what I've done and then ask the question. Build Gingerbread, model SGH-T959V , Frimware 2.3.6, kernel 2.6.35.7-antsvx v1.1.3
You will notice that I'am using AntonX kernel which was a cake walk to install thanks to you guys.
Now I've noticed on one of the rom tutorials its says ''Must have pre-installed kernel with clockwork recovery!''
Does AntonX have a clockwork recovery built in? or does this mean that I can now use clockworkmod? everywhere I've readed its says to avoid clockworkmod like the plague.
I've readed about booting into recovery so I know how to do that just wasn't sure about the clockwork thing.
Thanks for your help!
Hi Tunderpimp
Clockworkmod = recovery
AntonX kernel has it.
To get to CWM/recovery - power off your phone, keep pressing both volume buttons (+ & -) while pressing power button. When splash appears, leave the power button but keep holding the volume buttons until you see a text menu.
For further info please read the wiki.
