Need Help, bricked?

HI!
I just one click rooted my phone and afterwards tried to install the gingerbread android revolution rom. Now I am stuck in an endless boot. I have tried to hold down the power button and the volume up and down button and also the power and up volume button. I get vibration and then the orange indicator lights blinks....but no boot.
Any idea what to do here? I'm stumped. Used to the captivate where I could easily get into recovery and odin it back.

Ok... uggh held down the down volume button and power and got into recovery mod. Doing a fresh data wipe and going to try and reinstall the rom...

Ok, well second flash was a charm. Phew! I was in panic mode a bit. There doesn't seem to be as many safe guards available for this phone compared to my captivate. With that said, enjoying the new rom and 2.3

[Q] i5801 orange running froyo2.2 bricked

upgraded my i5801 with samsungs kies 2.2 upgrade - worked ok
wanted to remove orange and improve performance hoping to burn the latest kyrillos o/s. I have manage to root the phone (superuser there in apps) but could not enter recovery mode to clear the system and my mutiple attempts have now bricked it with the b&w samsung i5801 symbol.
i have tried 'volup, home, start', 'voldown, home, start', 'vol+vol-, home, start'
and the same combinations using menu instead of home. I have searched the forums and all i could find was a mention that orange i5081s are different and can't be done.
Please how can i unbrick it? and is there a way of doing what i planned?

Hold volume up+down+home+power button and let go of the power button when the boot screen shows up and hold on to the other buttons for a little longer.
Cheers

^ If it's booting till GT-I5801 screen, then it's definitely not a hard brick.
Try removing the sd card and sim, and then see if you can navigate to the download mode or not (vol down + home + power)

dude, follow that guide I gave you! just install/flash other roms! I think the recovery files might be missing.

have you tried to wipe phone from recovery?

I can not going to recovery mode.,
how to hard reset my motoroi if it bootloop???

http://code.google.com/p/miui-xt720/
Go this address you will find what you need to get your phone unbootloop.

I have bricked 2 XT720 so far - my phones would just freeze (after froyo instalation) and there was no way that I could them unbrick (I tried everything)
only thing I can think of that problem might be is root method
have you rooted your phone with superoneclick, or with something else?

Well is your milestone xt720 if so after flashing motorio 2.2 sbf it will bootloop you.
You needed to go to stock recovery and do a hard reset.
If you talking our 2.2 you should not bootloop you.
Be more clear on your problem.

force closes is showing if you haven't wiped partitions from recovery
to do so:
Turn off phone
Press Power key + Camera Key + GalleryKey to power on the phone and bring up the recovery screen
When the Triangle/Exclamation point screen appears, press Volume Up + Gallery Key down and tap the camera key to show the recovery menu.
When the recovery window appears, use the volume up/down keys to navigate the menu and the camera key to enter your selection.
Select Wipe data/factory reset
Select Reboot Phone

Hi all,
I am new towards rooting phones and installing Roms. I bought a used Motorola XT910 today and it seemed to have a Korean version of gingerbread installed on it. As soon as I got home I downloaded the first stock Rom I could find on the internet for Asia and installed it on the phone. I followed the instructions in the below mentioned video and the phone is now completely bricked.
I just Googled " how to unbrick motorola xt910" and followed the instructions in the 6:09 video that comes up by RAZRGUY.
I've spent hours and hours on the internet looking for a solution but cannot find any. please help me. I'm getting the message now that I cannot install cos the battery is low. it won't charge and keeps booting up even when I try to shut it down.
Please help!!

I can try to help you as I have an xt912, very similar but there is some difference. My Razr is CDMA/Verizon yours is GSM international.
First of all, when you turn on your phone, how far does it get? Red Moto M, then the bootanimation loops? or does it go from red moto m to black screen?

Hey,
The usual procedure is just to Hard Reset.
To do this, try
Step 1) With the phone off, Press & Hold the VOL UP+ & VOL DOWN- buttons simultaneously then while continuing to hold the VOL UP+ & VOL DOWN- buttons Press and Hold the POWER button till a menu appears.
Step 2) Use the VOL DOWN- button to navigate the menu & the VOL UP+ to select the RECOVERY option.
Step 3) When presented with a logo with an exclamation mark! Press & Hold the VOL UP+ & VOL DOWN- buttons simultaneously to bring up the next menu of options.
Step 4) Use the VOL DOWN- button to navigate the menu & the POWER button to select the Wipe data / Factory reset option.
Step 5) Use the VOL DOWN- button to navigate the menu to confirm this selection. Press the POWER button to begin the Factory Reset. (This may take a few minutes just be patient and wait.
Step 6) Once the task has completed press the POWER button to restart the device.

Or you may want to try manually flashing the original software to reset it back. You could try using flashtool.
Or You could contact the RC Help Chat 24/7

[Q] Can't go to bootloader, always goes to ClockworkMod recovery

Hey people my first post so you can call me whatever you want
Here is the thing:
I rooted the phone, installed a custom ROM and such, on the process I guess I installed this Clockwork Mod Recovery v5.8.3.1.
Well I wanted to change the ROM so I downloaded the new one (lastest trickdroid) and follow the steps, BUT!, when trying to acces the fastboot thing on that menu that can't remeber the name of, I jsut can't get into it.
When I tart the phone pressing volume down + power, instead of going to that menu it goes to clockwork mod. I was suposed to "Flash the stock boot.img from the ROM with fastboot", but well I dont know what I did or wahtever, I can't aces that menu.
What should I do?

I am having what seems like the same issue with my phone. Just posted a thread not too long ago asking for help. One person (a SR. Member) informed me to try to restore using a NANDROID backup (which I dont have). Going off of his advice, if you have the backup, try that. If not, we both seem to have the same problem. Good luck with your issue, I will be checking both our threads for solutions from now on!

Well, it seems we have the same problem then, we could make a club or something.

Extra Help (Maybe)
Hey again, I found some useful information that allowed me to get into my bootloader! If you are still stuck in CWM, use the volume down button to go down to the "advanced" button at the bottom of the list. Since this is a button that leads to another list and not a direct action, you can hold down the power button when highlighted over it and turn the phone off. From there, just hold Volume Down and Power as you would normally do to boot into the bootloader. Hope this helps since it worked for me!
So:
-Navigate to "advanced" (Just highlight over it)
-Hold power button for 10-15 seconds
-Phone should power off
-Volume Down + Power to boot into Bootloader
-Profit?? (Just Kidding )
Again, hope I could be of some assistance!

well I dont know what I did. I just turned the phone off normally. Then did the power + b down, held it for about 6 seconds, relesead the power then the volume and BOM, bootlader appeared, hmmm okay I guess

Have a look at fragkiller1 thread for fixing your issue.

well now I can't even get into CWM sigh
A brief flash of a screen appears now while booting it, but it just skips to the actual OS. I have the fast boot disabled ohh man what do now? DId I mess up something?

I did what you told me but when highlighting advanced and pressing the power button it enters the menu advanced, then the phone just noramll reboots and the OS loads.
I would have edited the post but I can't.

Try holding Vol- when turning it off and keep hold of it but quickly let go of power when it turns off.

thanks it worked perfectly. I thought it only worked powering off and turining it on and holding volume down.
edit: sigh now I have another problem, after using fastboot usb with the Boot_Flash_Script from trickdroid, the phone is stuck at the the screen that says"this build is for development pourpuses only..." and it won't go further
edit2: I think I falshed a ROM for VilleC2 when I have a Ville, is there a way to fix this? the phone now is stuck at loading the screen with red words

Ya, make sure you got the right rom and get yourself back into the bootloader and you should see recovery there then do a full wipe and flash the rom and also if you feel you might of flashed the wrong boot.img reflash it to make sure.

So it's over, all solved.
I tried to install a new ROM but CWM got me an error mounting the SD, then I installed another recovery (TWR) and installed the new ROM (viper one s) flashed the boot.img and now everthing works wonders, for now.
Thanks a lot Darknites for trying to help me I really appreaciate that

Np dude glad you got it sorted but ya TWRP is way better for the sd mount and if you have 1.09 or lower Hboot it can also flash boot.img.
