Hmmm....After holding power and vol down the android screen should pop up. Then release the buttons and it should go into the menu. I have no idea why the recovery did not successfully install.
Have you used the one-click method before on the G2x?

i did flash one click recovery and it did fine but my phone would not go to recovery at all i held those bottoms for a minute and still now i did this

Well crap...that sucks. Maybe the partitions got messed up. A few people have had that issue. It can create all sorts of trouble. Or it could possible an ext 3 vs ext 4 issue depending on what rom you had and what you restored. It will take someone a lot more knowledgeable than myself to help you. Good luck.

Take battery out put it back in then hold volume down and power

i did that but ever since i flash the rom on the recovery to if it help to flash partition on it the phone die completely it would not do anything and stays on a black screen.
it wont even try to bootup
anyways i tried several methods and non of them worked other than ****ing it up more.
so i just called tmobile and asked for a replacement and it should be here tomorrow.
thanks to all the tried to help

It's not bricked. It turns on and boots. Just clear the Dalvik Cache in Clockworkmod Recovery.

Then use the One Click Recovery Flasher in APX mode to reflash recovery, then try to go into recovery again by turning on while holding the volume down key. If that doesn't work then find the method for flashing the Gingerbread ROM in APX mode. If that doesn't work I have no other suggestions for you.

I'm in the same situation with my G2x. Were you able to fix it? If so, how?
Update: Got it fixed. As jcbofkc recommended, doing the OneClick NvFlasher got me back up and running. Thanks!

I think i bricked my HTC Inspire ... its stuck in a boot loop i was trying to flash CyanogenMod 7 then when it turned off and tried turning on it just reboots everytime when its about to start up i tried to do a recovery but it just sits there with a black screen can i fix my phone? if so how can i? thanks any feedback will help
I think a title would be helpful here..
hmm accidently hit thanks.... any hooo have you tried hooking it up to your computer? Pull the battery for 10 seconds, then hold down power volume down and try to get back into recovery. If not then does your computer still recognize it in Hboot?

sorry its my first time posting and i didnt know what to do
If you can't open recovery you can flash it again by renaming the ROM PD98IMG.zip. What method did you use to root?
I got it to work I waited a while for the recovery to start. Then waited for it to do the recovery. Good thing I did a backup right before and I used HTC_Inspire_4G_Simple_Root_S-OFF_RC1

[Q] Help !!!! Bricked ???

I dunno if my G3 has bricked or not, but it can't be Booted.

Is it Soft bricked or Hard bricked ?
Should I take it to Samsung Service Center ?
Did you tried Menu button+Power button+ Volume up & down combination?
Press them all at once for a while...

shut the the phone by taking the battery out, put it back in, boot into download mode (vol- , menu, power button), and reflash the rom. If the download mode doesn't show up, then I think your phone is probably hard-bricked....
I think it's gone......

Then it's a hard-brick obviously.....and yes, I think you'll have to go to the service center. By the way, I remember a thread that talks about 'unhardbrick' g3, try to search for it, it may help a lot!
Confirmed: Hard Bricked.....
I visited Samsung Service Centre. Motherboard needs to be replaced. Cost ~90 $.
I'll better get a new phone.

[HELP] Bricked phone

Hey please experts help me with my galaxy 3 i just bought one i had it 1 day, battery was discharged and after i charged it i got bootloop I tried many roms and i always got : bootloop, boot screen with GT-I5800 or screen Kernel panic upload mode. I cant go into recovery mode i dont know hy it dont works (its vol+,vol -, home, power isnt it?) I cant root it i cant do anything. Anybody have some ideas what to do or its bricked? If its important i can still go into download mode and flash it using Odin thats all i can do with this phone. Pls heeeelp.
P.S.
Its not like that i dont red the forum i sited here many hours and still i didnt find solve of my problem. I guess i am too dummy ;/ I will be graceful sboody ?: (
Here comes help!
Welcome to the forum, btw
First thing you should do is hold on a little bit.
To solve your problem try to get to download mode (VOL-, HOME, POWER, then after phone turns on, release power) and flash Kyrillos' ROM (FROYO - v9.0) - fire up odin, tick one package, select tar and flash it. AFTER the flashing ends, you should boot up to recovery (CWM recovery for G3MOD kernel). Here, navigate through menu using VOL+, VOL- and navigate to "Wipe data/factory reset" option. Now press HOME button to confirm. Navigate again to Yes, press HOME again and wait till its done.
Now Navigate to "Reboot" or something like that - its the first option in there. Then press HOME again. You should see the phone rebooting and then displaying the bootanimation - it lasts for aprox. 10-20minutes, so don't panic!
If this wont solve your problem, give me more info
- New or used phone - THIS IS ABSOLUTELY IMPORTANT TO KNOW BECAUSE IF YOU HAD NEW, YOU HAD 2.1 FIRMWARE ON IT
- Did you wipe data/factory reset phone
- What else you tried?
- etc, etc...
There will be solution somewhere... I'm sure. But post the result after trying that.
PS: here on xda is a little THANKS button... Use it instead of "THANK YOU" posts. (Just in case you didn't know)

Thank u very much man phone was used but it had 2.1 stock firmware on it, i didnt wipe/ factory reset on phone, and i didnt't tied sthing else.
Now tell me after flashing Kyrillos' rom v9.0 Do I have flash kernel with CWM or its in Kyrillos already? How to enter CWM recovery mode ? Same as normal (VOL +, VOL-, HOME, then POWER) I did thank u cuz it sounds logical what u wrote thank u man and I am waiting for reply.
CWM is pre-installed on Kyrillos rom. To boot into CWM recover just turn the phone on, hold the power button until a menu comes up and in the menu it will say recover. Press recovery to go into recovery mode.

I did flashed kyrillo's v 9.0 and and after flashing phone just stay in boot screen and nothing happends. I cant do anything again. Do root is needed to flash ROM's cuz when my phone crashed it wasnt rooted and now i cant root it cuz computer only see it as Modem and composite device mode ;/ I dont know what to do.

Turn your phone off by pulling the battery out. The put the battery back in but don't turn the phone on. Hold the volume up + volume down + home button + power button and as soon as the screen turns on, let go of the button. This will take you into CWM recovery. Then, in recovery, select wipe data/ factory reset, then wipe cache and then wipe the dalvik cache. These options are all in recovery and are easy to find. Then reboot the phone and it should work. Also you don't need to root your phone to flash a custom ROM.

You probably have confused Samsung galaxy 3 with Samsung galaxy S3 because this phone (Galaxy 3) Hasn't menu that you can boot to recovery/bootloader with. At least I dont know about such "menu" thing.
---------- Post added at 03:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:01 PM ----------
----------------------------------------------------------------------- SOLUTION! ---------------------------------------------------------
@KamelusPL: You said that you cant boot after flashing Kyrillo's ROM v9.0. And you had Android 2.1 and you couldn't boot. That means you have been in hurry to get things really fast done and flashed FROYO ROM WITHOUT BOOTLOADERS OVER 2.1 THAT COMES WITH ITS OWN TYPE OF BOOTLOADER = bricked.
HOWEVER, there's a solution! yeah!
This is a bit risky, but if you want your phone working again, you must do that. I'm saying again, I take no responsibility over such things.
1. Put your phone into download mode. This must be working.
2. Download this file: http://hotfile.com/dl/132526357/46bd186/I5800XXJPS_OXX_Android_2.2.rar.html
3. Open odin, tick ONE PACKAGE, in the down right corner click ONE PACKAGE and select .tar file you downloaded. ITS WITH PROPER BOOTLOADERS - FROYO XXJPS. That must work.
4. Click start. NOW DO NOT TOUCH YOUR PC until its done!
5. Wait till its done and wait till your phone boots up.
6. If you will have still bootloop, then you must boot into recovery (YOU MUST WAIT... RECOVERY WONT SHOW IMMEDIATELY just like in download mode... wait man.), here navigate using the same keys I told you before, and select wipe data / factory reset, then select yes and wait till its done. Then, navigate to wipe cache partition, select yes and wait till its done. Then, select reboot system now and press HOME.
7. This should be working!
This menu! Recovery is the second last option and I have a galaxy 3...
Edit: also I would recommend doing what the Guy above said. To boot into download mode you hold volume down + home button and the power button. :thumbup:

Hold vol up+down and power and home button when the phone is off and let go of the power button once you see something on the screen.

Wait, so when you bought your phone yesterday the battery was discharged? So you didn't check if it was working or not before you bought it? Maybe you were scammed into buying a broken phone
--------------------------------
Click thanks if I helped.
Any other way to enter the recovery? I'm afraid not.
Maybe this has somethig to do with flashing CUSTOM FROYO ROM over 2.1. Because Kyrillos' ROM's kernel converts filesystems to other ones than the stock RFS that is used by stock samsung roms. That means the phone after flashing stock rom directly after some custom froyo roms dont recognize the partitions in different filesystems. So you must wipe data and cache partition to get the phone to recognize theese partitions again.
After that, the phone will boot. BUT YOU MUST BOOT IT TO RECOVERY AND WIPE DATA SOMEHOW.
This is really wierd... If you can go to download mode, I'm sure this can still be fixed somehow, but the stock froyo rom should boot into recovery anyways...
Have you tried getting to recovery when you first saw the phone that its not booting? I mean at the beggining of this problem if you had still 2.1 when you got the phone? Because wiping data from recovery on 2.1 should have solved this problem I think...
EDIT: HERE IN XDA IS SOME FILE - zerofill.tar THAT IF YOU FLASH IT, YOU PROBABLY GET WIPED PARTITIONS, but not sure... TRY THAT - I think rkoby13 has posted this file somewhere... Try to PM him...

U have absolutly right that they to solve this is enter recovery mode but i think my problem is deeper i found something on my own. Look.
If your GSII has the folowing symptoms :
Bootloop
Stuck on GSII logo, but already removed the battery to try to fix it
Enters Download mode and Recovery mode
It means that you are soft bricked and is easy to solve.
But if your symptoms are the mentioned above, PLUS the symptoms below
Enters Download mode but does NOT enter recovery mode (usually means a NAND rw corruption)
Doesn't flash
Bad flash in odin (FAIL after flashing, or the flashing suddenly stops)
It looks like I must use all my brain power to solve that i guess i need to go deeper into android stuff cuz i wont give up. I even gave my phone to service but seems like that dude is lame and he is not so much expert like i need i send message to Kyrillos cuz i guess he knows all bout androids and all that stuff and thats the person who i need some1 very good must see my topic guess i will just read learn and w8 for help thank u all for advices
After watching your youtube video I am confused. You try to get in into recovery, but don't even wait 10 seconds before you remove the battery?
Before you start make sure the battery is not empty or even broken. Charge until it reports full.
Battery out for a while, remove charging cable. Then battery in, press Vol+ and Vol-, add Home, then Power, as soon as something appears onscreen let go all three. Then WAIT. What happens?
If it stays on the GT I5800 screen for longer than a minute on a stock Eclair AND stock Froyo (from twinky's advice), you probably have a serious hardware issue. Did this device you bought ever work properly for you? That's important. If you really bought a phone that you never saw working, it's most likely hopelessly dead. If it worked, and showed the reported error after a day, there might be hope.
edit: I had countless bootloops/flash FAILs/tons of FC after 1st boot/corrupted FS... don't give up! As long as download mode is still accessable, it's not dead yet!

Dude u rly think i am so stupid?
Phone was working when i bought it i suspect that some sort of application crashed it( i guess taskkiller), i did tried to take out battery for longer time even 1 day ... And i did tried to hold buttons longer
Its bad flash that has made the situation...
Flash zero fill.tar which will clean your system
Flash again a rom using 'Forced download mode' ( vol+, home, power button)
Note: you should restart your phone by keys when its still on after zero fill flash using the force download keys.

Sorry, I was just telling from the video. But a software like taskkiller cannot mess up the whole phone in a way that prevents access to recovery.
Try cleaning the ROM like in above post and then flash a bootloaderfree stockrom. That should leave you with a perfect situation to start all over again.

cannot boot or get into recovery

So this is the first time i've borked one of my phones. I have a verizon GS3, i had TKrom b4.0 installed, decided i didn't like it and went to restore my previous backup. It didn't do something right cuz it still had the custom splash screen from TKrom, and it wouldn't go past that. I then clean flashed the newest carbon nightly 10-9-2013 and it said my phone appeared to not be rooted, so i swiped to install su (probably my error) Anyway now it won't boot up or go into recovery (TWRP). Any help would be greatly appreciated, i know this site is filled with knowledgeable induviduals so i don't doubt someone will have the answer. Thanks so much..
Well if you can't get into recovery then your only option at this point is Odin. You can get into download mode right (Power + home + Vol down)

Yeah i can get into Odin, but i'm not sure what to do after that.

by holding down volume up+home button+power at the same time. But i ended up doing odin back to stock and redoing root/recovery, luckily i wasn't hard bricked(phew)... Anyways thanks for the help guys
On my son's S3, I couldn't get into recovery one day using that. What ended up working was holding down those (3) buttons and when it vibrates, release the power button but keep the others held down until the splash screen for the recovery tool shows.

[Q] Stuck on boot screen

Hi, my Shield is stuck on its boot screen, the one with the green shield and the mist whatever. I've tried restarting it but nothing is happening. I don't even know what caused it, I just picked it up and opened it and it was on its boot screen. Last thing I knew before it, it was working perfectly fine. I don't have recovery installed... It is rooted but I doubt that would cause this... any help?

That's happened to me before.have you tried leaving it off for a few minutes and then restarting it. maybe try while its on the charger.If that doesn't solve it I would attempt to boot into stock recovery and perform a FDR. either way someone will get you back up and running again.

That's supposed to happen.you need to press home and back I believe to get the menu to pop up. might not be those buttons but there is a button combination to get it to popup.

Well yes, I hold home and back when I turn it on, and it brings me to a screen with these options:
Continue
Restart Bootloader
Recovery mode
Reboot
Poweroff
Selecting "Recovery mode" just brings me to a screen that says "no command". I tried doing various button commands to try and make something happen, but nothing happens.

I realize that but Keep trying there's a two button combo to get the RECOVERY MENU to show up. If you can't get it I'll go get my shield and flash the stock recovery so i can figure it out.

Nvidia Shield Portable
My sons Shield Portable is stuck on the screen that has a dead looking Android that says no command after trying to install a factory update. I have tried holding down the power button the home button and back button to try and recover. The recovery mode did nothing. The restart bootloader did nothing. I have pressed the power button and the home button at same time to try and wipe the data. I did wipe and hit the factory reset once I did that I hit reboot. when it started back up it still says the same thing. Please help
same problem
I have the same problem if anyone knows the combo to go straight into recovery I would really appreciate it.
