Bricked! Please Help!! - T-Mobile LG G2x

Man I hope somebody can help me! I was trying to flash the latest CM7 nightly when in the process my phone just froze (while the ROM was flashing in recovery). I left it and the phone finally rebooted. I have the latest CWM with ext4 recovery and the Trinity kernel installed on my phone. When I boot up and try to get back into recovery the phone just hangs on the Trinity splash screen and won't let me into recovery.
I tried to reboot recovery through adb, and the phone reboots but it just takes me back to the battery charging screen (since the phone was plugged in). When I use adb the phone does show up when I do adb devices but gives an error when I do adb shell.
Is there anything I can do to do a nandroid restore or flash a new ROM or basically anything to get my phone back?

dude the same thing happened to me take the battery out then press vol up n power this will reboot ur phone now when its rebooting n u get the blank screen for a split second QUICKLY hold vol down n power (recov) n u should get back in recovery good luck bro

after u take batt out make sure to put it back in n do steps forgot to clarify

I had something like this happen a few weeks ago. I re-preformed the NVFlash of CWM and everything worked after that. I don't pretend to know why, but maybe it'll help you. I was still using the test CWM and no extra kernels at the time. Good luck.

Whew! Man that was a close one! Ok It is doing a NANDROID restore now. Here's what I did:
I installed an older CWM thru NVFlash and then I pulled the batter, placed it back in and then did the power+vol up and then quickly power +vol down and it got me to recovery.
Thanks guys for your help!

Dont stress too hard, ya its a pain and you may have to funble around for a while but you'll get it. I started periodically copying a 'latest backup' along with a 'cwm recovery' file and saving it on my PC Hard Drive. I actually have it setup now where both ROM Manager and TI Backup save the file to my SD card and it then sync's nightly at like 3am to my DropBox fileshare... that way if I'm ever away from my pc I can just find a pc to use and quickly grab it with all the materials I need in one spot (TIB backs-up all your apps by the way which is nice).
If worst comes to worst I grabbed the stock ROM off a thread here and I can link you to it if you need it. I'm sure you'll be able to reflash your backup but if not your phone isnt necessarily toast... its just a headache.

Fixing a bricked Nexus S

I had a Vibrant before and flashed it constantly. I soft bricked it several time and it was easy just to Odin back to stock and try again. Before I begin to flash Roms on this phone I would like to know how one would fix a bricked Nexus S. I searched "bricked Nexus S" and didn't come up with much.

Flash a stock img thru fastboot/adb. Just as painless as Odin was if not easier.
Sent from my Nexus S
Yeah I figured that much but I have never used ADB before. What are the commands to flash a stock img and where can I get a stock img? I already have ADB set up, serial # comes up when I enter - adb devices. I'm ready to root and flash but I want to be prepared for anything. I don't want to panic for ten minutes like I did the first time I bricked my Vibrant.

You should be able to snag a stock image from the development section. As far as what adb commands to use check out any of the root tutorials in development.

That's why I love this phone. When I first rooted my wife's phone she was a nervous wreck about me ruining it. Now, she jokingly cheers when it boot loops or hangs on the google splash screen.

Hi Everyone.
I have my Nexus S for a 3 days - it's brand new. Last night i turned it off. It was about 50% charged. Today i can't turn it on. Phone is dead. What's wrong? There is no any response, even during charging (black screen).
Phone wasn't rooted. It has Android 2.3.2 update.
What can I do?

not enough information is present. you can attempt to get into bootloader / recovery, plug USB to the computer. When plugged, does the computer make a plugged in noise? if it does.. try turning it on, try using adb on it, etc.
as a last resort: if its not rooted or modified in any way, you can go back to best buy and exchange it since you said you've only had it for 3 days

First thing to do is pull the battery, let it sit a minute or two, then put the battery back in and try to boot.
Also, try booting into recovery or fastboot. With power off, press and hold volume up button, then press/hold power on switch. You should enter fastboot mode. From fastboot menu, select boot to recovery. The phone will reboot and you'll get to a screen with an "!" and an android robot on it. At that point you press hold power, then press/hold volume up (make note that this is the reverse of what you did earlier).
Once in Recovery, try wiping cache from the menu.
Reboot.
If still no good, then repeat the process but pick factory reset/wipe from the menu in recovery. Note that this will wipe all personal data and apps off the phone but it won't touch your sdcard contents.
The case with pull battery - not working.
I can't enter fastmode using 2 keys combination.
Computer don't recognize the phone. It's brick...

Last option is to try to trick it into Samsung's Download Mode (see the Odin thread in Development section), but if the keys aren't recognized you can't soft boot into it so you'll need a dongle with a resistor to get there.
Sounds like it's truly a brick at this point. You'll probably have to return it, but I'm concerned about returning a phone that has your personal data on it without being able to wipe it. Doesn't seem like much way around that at this point if you can't get fastboot or download.
get the 301k resistor JIG and then you can go into the download mode even without the 2 keys + usb plug
you can always make your own JIG if you have the materials at home or a nearby Radio shack
Thx for all Your advices
Problem was with the dead battery. The battery died during the night - i don't know why. I think the system waren't able to boot up ant start charging process.
My solution:
I took 9V battery, 2 wires and charged dead battery for a while from 9V battery. Then a put it into phone and plug in to wall charger. Charging process started
Now everything is ok
That's pretty scary that it wouldnt take a charge if run down completelty. But hey handy to know incase it happens to any of us,
If you get any repeat i would take it back to get a fresh battery of course (only right to do so).
here's hoping you never need to though

Bricked
Tried unlocking nexus s last night, now it appears bricked. Cannot connect to computer to reflash as it seems to have wiped the driver. Any ideas on how to bring it back from the dead? thanks
I have managed to see the phone with fastboot. I was hoping that fastboot update, would re-image the brick. Can anyone let me know the correct syntax. I am not able to copy an image onto the phone. Thanks again
Noob {MAC User}... Please be gentle
Greetings Everyone,
Okay, so I endeavoured to root my phone last night and was successful. I ran into trouble when the clockwork recovery and superuser permissions kept getting removed each time I reboot.
Now, I'm at the Google splash screen with no way to move forward. I'm a mac user and I don't really get the adb thing. Got adb to work with mac from a youtube video, but still not sure what commands to run.
What I've done so far:
- wiped cache
- wiped/factory data reset
- retraced my steps by using terminal to setup superuser permission from this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=927838)
What I think:
- maybe in all of my clicks I removed the ROM, so the phone doesn't have a ROM to work with.
This maybe a really infantile conclusion, but I know there's a solution (had a rooted G1 that I flashed all the time and thought I bricked once but was able to get it back to stock).
Eagerly waiting for a reply... no cell phone if this can't be fixed.

It would be easier to help you if we knew exactly what you did that caused the problem. You said you tried to unlock it...you mean fastboot oem unlock or something else?
If you can get into fastboot, you're not totally lost, but the computer needs to see the phone to do it.
I'm working in a vacuum here on what your real problem is, but without further details, the things you can try are boot into recovery (from the fastboot mode select boot recovery)...if you're stock recovery, press/hold power, then volume up once you see the android "!". From there wipe cache and whatever else it will let you wipe. Try rebooting. IF that didn't work go back to recovery and try a factory reset of the phone (will delete all your apps and stuff on the phone, but not on the sdcard (pics and stuff).
If none of that works, you can still try getting Clockwork recovery on the phone via fastboot. Boot phone to fastboot and then on computer type the command "fastboot flash recovery <put file name of recovery version you're flashing here>"
Once in clockwork, you should have access to adb via the computer. On your computer go to the Development section here and download any of the various nandroid images posted there. Now you use clockwork mounts and storage menu to mount the sdcard. Then use adb to "adb push <insert path and filename of your nandroid image here> /sdcard"
Unmount the sdcard with the clockwork mounts and storage menu. Now go to the backup menu, select advanced restore and find the nandroid image and restore it.
With any luck, you should be able to boot into a fresh phone.

Bootloader/Recovery, hardware buttons?

Did you install clockwork mod with rom manager or NVFlash?
If you installed it through NVflash, clockwork mod is permanently on your phone by holding Volume Down + Power....if your not getting there....you didnt.....
If you used Rom Manager, you fake-flashed and won't be able to get there. The only way is by using NVFlash to install clockwork and restoring your nandroid. Go here
OR if you just wanna go back to stock, factory reset by holding both volume keys and power then releasing power when the screen is on....Good luck!

Yea I used NVFlash and just hit the root button, then it asked to install something since I didn't have it, I agreed, then it loaded again and was complete. Superuser was added to my apps and that's it. I think I have a brick lol, oh well, I honestly hated not having an led for notifications anyway. I got a weird screen a few mins ago though and it was stuck for like an hour. It said "updating s/w, please wait". Then went away and now it won't go past the LG screen...
Any ideas or anyone want to buy it for like 130?

The way you described NVFlash seems like you didn't actually use NVFlash. There is no root button involved with NVFlash.
To root the phone, you probably used superoneclickroot.
To install clockworkmod recovery you could have installed it through rom manager or installed it manually using NVFlash, which is a command line utility (unless you used the one click clockwork recovery found in this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056847).
Can you clear these things up so we can further help.
I'll also buy it for 130 if you don't want to deal with it.
Yea you're right, I forgot, sorry finals have fogged my mind the last few days. I used superoneclick for sure and flashed the recovery through ROM manager. Will the NVFlash help get to somewhere to flash by backup or hell, even the stock rom? I just got back to my computer at home and am gonna try some things.. I'll report back..
Edit: Ok I think I found the problem. I have Eagleblood 1.02 ROM and I loaded a Kernel from a p990 (Optimus 2x) and NOT the p999 (G2x). When I plug my phone in it says LGE P990 now. So is there any fixing this? I can plug it in and it'll popo up with the notification window for the safe remove and mass storage but I still can't access the recovery image??
You should definitely flash clockworkmod recovery via NVFlash. The easiest way would be to follow this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056847
It provides an easy to use user interface to NVFlash to flash clockworkmod recovery. After that, I guess you could flash CM7 nightly and hopefully it'll load the approriate kernel. I'm new to android so I'm not sure if ROMs contain the kernel too, but I'm guessing it is because looking at the CM7 source, they seem to include the kernel. Then after that you can flash the stock nandroid found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048274
Note: you could possibly just flash the stock nandroid instead of CM7 and it could still work out, but I'm not sure.
Sweet NVFlash fixed it, I have my recovery image again, flashed my backup and am right where I left it, Thanks man!
Im also new to rooting and flashing.....I flashed using rommanager and everything was fine till I flashed cyanogen...now I can't get to rcocery screen and I have no computer for the next few days....don't get me wrong ibwant to keep this rom-2.3.4 but it doesn't come with Google apps which i have installed on my SD but can't flash.....someonehelp
Lol, I'm nowhere near new at rooting/flashing but this phone is the first to ever NOT have a back up plan..
You'll have to do exactly what I did. Honestly, NO ONE should flash anything without the REAL recovery image and NOT through ROM manager, otherwise in this case your without a phone until you can get to a computer.
Use the NVFlash method posted above, it takes a couple minutes and then its permanent. Afterwards, if you ever flash something buggy or broken, you can always fall back on vol down and power..

Very odd issue with my g2x.

I haven't done any flashing in about a week. Everything was working fine. And just today I ran the battery completely dry (which I usually do and it keeps my battery happy).
So I power it back up after a few mins of charging.....the LG screen comes on.....then the Ultimate 1.0 Rom loading logo comes up..after that every 10-15 seconds it turns on the screen, shuts it off, turns it on, off, etc. It keeps turning on and off...even after I left it there for 5 mins.
I'm going to flash back my Froyo stock rooted rom that I made a back up. The Ultimate 1.0 isn't the only rom I've flashed in the past. CM7 as well..many of the builds.
Argh.
I have my nandroid froyo backup on my SDcard and it says it can't find it.
This whole internal sd and external sd storage is a pain in the ass. The good old G1 days. Sigh. I went ahead with formatting the card as well and copying back the nandroid backup onto the card. Nothing.
That happened to me. I had to reset - battery pull alone wouldn't work. That phone is now on its way to T-Mobile, and its warranty replacement is going to be soon due to really bad screen bleed (affects my watching video and game play).

What was "it says" - ROM Manager?
If so, it looks for a androids on the internal SD. If you had used the easy recovery install tool, you would have been able to select internal or external to use with Recovery - NOT ROM Manager.
Based on your choice, you should be able to access you nandroid in the place you chose in RECOVERY MODE.
Since you fully drained you battery, you might want to erase battery specs in recovery, turn it off, and fully charge with it turned off for 8 hours. It is not recommended that you fully drain the battery and that may be your problem.
Then you could try wiping cache, dalvek, and format /system - and reflash your ROM. Save flashing the nandroid for last.

have you tried a different battery?
According to the experts at Popular Mechanics running your battery dry is very bad for it. It greatly reduces the life according to them. There was a post about it last week. There are physics involved that apply to all.

You boot the phone holding Volume Up & Power buttons until recovery screen appears.
Recovery, if you flashed it using the NVflash tool, will be accessible by booting your phone while holding Vol Up & Power. You will go into Recovery. If you have never done this or do not get recovery its because you did not flash the Recovery onto your phone.
Basically, if all you did was download ROM Manager and start flashing the G2x you are playing with fire. You need to flash the Recovery onto the phone using NVflash tool. ( Follow Step2 in the following link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1060715 )
I would recommend anyone with the same problem or the same question to go thru the link above and you will find answers to most of your problems.

You need to properly install Clockworkmod recovery with NVflash. Its a process but well worth it. Rom manager is a no no with out phones.

[Q] Dead Inspire 4G

I was on a call and when I hung up, wanted to unlock.
Push the power button, lights on the 4 bottom buttons come on. Screen stays black, no backlight.
Push the button again, lights go off.
Push again, lights come on, no screen.
etc, etc...
I pulled the battery, and put it back in.
Now it's just sitting here saying HTC, but it doesn't get to the "quietly brilliant" ever. It just sits there forever saying HTC.
The phone is hacked, rooted, ENG S-OFF, was running Android Revolution 4G 5.1.6 or something when this all happened.
I can get into the [vol-] + [power] menu (white BG) and to recovery (black BG), but I'm not sure how to transfer files to the SD card to load a new ROM on without Android.
Can I use ADB to push a file across? If so, how?
Is there anything I should try before I wipe my phone? I'd like to back up my apps and SMSs if possible, but won't break down in tears if I can't.
Edit: I don't really know very much about ADB/Fastboot, but when I type ADB Devices the phone doesn't show up, however if I go into "Fastboot" in the white screen, I can type Fastboot Devices and my phone is listed. I suspect I can somehow push across the Android Revolution 4G ROM zip file and wipe/install it from recovery? I'm not sure how though.
WHile the phone is completely off, press and hold the Volume (down) and the Power off/on button (press the volume down first if that makes it easier ,then the power button).
Then you should get to the Hboot screen (white back), in there you should have the option to go to recovery...
As long as you can get to recovery ,your perfectly safe (even if just the hboot page)...In here you can reinstall a new ROM.
You can do so by going to mounts and storage , and choose mount usb storage (or something; make sure your connected to the PC with the USB)..
Your phone should now be connected to your pc Via your SD card..
Just download a new ROM, and then put it somewhere in your SDcard and after that, choose install zip from SDcard and select the ROM file you just transfered.
ANd unfortunately but, if you cant get passed recovery..I believe there would be no way to back up any phone/internal data .
If he wanted to back up some data as long as he has AR 5.1.6 still he should be able to reflash the rom w/o a full wipe to try and get the phone to boot so he can back up.
Some times it works sometimes it doesn't.
Just boot into hboot , then from there get to recovery. Once in recovery, you should now be able to use adb (if fastboot is working, it should see the phone in recovery).
Now put the rom in the platform tools folder(or whereever your tools/adb is (not sure if your using Linux or windows but this should work with either. Now open a terminal to platform-tools(or like earlier, whereever adb and now the rom are) now -
adb push nameofrom.zip /sdcard
nameofrom.zip has to be exactly what the name of the rom is you put in the location that has adb in it.
It will take a few min. to push the whole rom, when its done flash it.
This is all assuming you don't have adb in your enviorn . path- it can be done a little differently if you have it in your path in windows or Linux, but this way will work either way.
Or use fastboot to flash a new system.img, but you'll have to find one or make one- don't know where.
Di11's method is fine, but pardon me if im mistaken, can't he, since he's able to boot into recovery, plug his cord in>mount usb storage>transfer rom to sdcard>unmount>and wipe data/cache/dalvik/flash rom? it would seem easiest
Ya, sometimes I've noticed in the past when ****s all muffed up it wont wanna mount as USB storage. (Dont know why but it happens)This works every time.

Can't Mount SD Card

I was running CM10 on a rooted TFT101. I was having some WiFI connectivity issues so I decided I would try out a new rom. I used Titamium Backup and backed up all my needed files to my Mico SD card. Once backed up, I rebooted into CWM v6.0.1.3. I went to do a factory reset prior to flashing the new rom. The tablet just froze. I rebooted the tablet back into CWM. I tried to again do a factory reset and again the tablet just froze. I tried to boot back into CM10 and I just sits and spins and never actually boots into the OS. I decided that I would just go ahead and just flash the new rom and do a factory reset after the fact. I placed the new rom on the micro sd card and booted back into CWM. I attempted to install zip from SD card and now I get e:can't mount /sdcard/. I have tried 3 different micro sd cards and nothing. I have formatted each to fat32 and not one of them is recognized. All 3 are recognized by windows.
Since I can't boot into the OS...and I can't load a new rom....I am dead in the water. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
If you can get it to that endless boot logo and connect it through USB, ADB (info - download) should be able to access whatever's left on your device assuming it gets far enough in the boot process. If it does, you can adb pull the backups to your computer to save them.
That being said, Easy Flasher will help you get back to 100% unrooted stock and "unbrick" your device with a few clicks. Then you can start over with a new recovery and rom. But it will wipe your entire device clean, hence why I suggest you first check if you still have backups and if you do, pull them on your computer using adb.
I can't help with the CWM problem, I haven't used it in a long time.

Thank you Lethe6. I saw that option and wondered if that might help me. I will try it out today.
One quick question. If I flash back to stock I am guessing I will just need to reroot once I am able to boot it back up?
Thank you again for your assistance.
Yes exactly. Easy Flasher has a root option as well so it's fairly easy to get going with customizations after restoring to stock!

Go figure. I went to fix the issue last night per your instructions and I was sitting at the Google login screen for the the new rom I loaded. What ever issue I was having corrected itself. That never happens. I guess I shouldn't complain =)
Thank you again for your assistance Lethe6!
