Hey, first time posting anything here. i have an HTC Inspire 4g and i rooted it and installed the RCmix3d Bliss sense 3.5 ROM. Everything worked perfect until this morning i woke up to a black screen. everything was fine but, the screen wouldnt turn on except the lights on the touch buttons. I took out the battery and restarted but nothing, eventually it showed (Once) and i thought everything was fine but when i put it to sleep and the screen wouldnt turn on anymore.. i came home and did something(i think) very stupid and tried to attempt to re-root it and now the lights on the touch buttons dont light up. i can tell its on because i have 2 text messages and the notification light keeps blinking. I also tried holding the volume buttons and power, it vibrates and the notification lights turns green and just stays that way.
Please if someone can help i would really appreciate it. I love this phone and its not going to be easy to replace...
Thanks,
AMiiGOE
P.S I read that leaving it without the battery for 12hours will fix it, and im doing that now.
I would boot to recovery and perform a wipe then reinstall the rom.
If you deleted the files, you can mount the sd within recovery to get the files back on the sd card

Np..
1. Turn phone completely off
2. Press and hold volume down and power for a few seconds. You should see the white background with colored text.
3. Select recovery
4. Make sure the rom or any rom you downloaded is present on your sd card..
5. Select install from sd. Card
6. Browse to where the rom is, usually in /download file, unless you moved it to the root directory
7. If the zip file IS there, let's try reinstalling the rom before doing the other fancy stuff
8. Assuming you are still in the directory where the zip file is for the rom you are flashing, select that zip file by pressing the power button when it's highlighted (navigate up and down with volume keys).
9. Select yes you are sure you want to whatever it says..
10. Wait for it to complete, hopefully it says the rom installed correctly.
11. Go back to the first recovery menu _ you should see back arrows at the top.. Select those arrows until you see an option to reboot.
12. Select reboot
13. Profit?
If this works, then you are golden.. You may want to see if the rom you are using is over clocking the cpu - your cpu might not like to be o/c
Let us know how it goes!

Hey, i been trying to research all day and no go :/ ... thanks for the step-by-step but im not sure if im explaining myself very good
my phone is completely black. i used this link here to root it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952352
when my black screen was going on for the first time, i went home thinking if maybe i try n re-root it itll fix. well now im not sure if the process got interrupted but now its only black. no lights on the touch buttons and now i feel its getting worse and i really hope im not losing this phone :/ ... nothing shows at all no more. when i take the battery out and put it back in, i can turn it on (it'll vibrate once) but thats it... nothing more. again when i take out the battery and insert it back, if i hold the up volume key and power, the led notification light will flash orange and one vibration pulse will occur and the led will keep flashing.. holding it down, it'll just vibrate.. nothing on the screen shows anymore.. i want to call HTC but im not sure if i will be able to replace it :/ and im not sure if they can tell that its rooted..
Tonight i just pressed the power as if i were turning it on, and i will leave it over night to see if miracles happen..
please if you ANY suggestion, im alllll ears .. i hope to maybe solve this and learn my lesson to just not root it no more lol
Thanks AGAIN!
So when the phone is off, and you press volume DOWN AND POWER SIMULTANEOUSLY for a few seconds what happens?

it vibrates and just stays black.. BUT if you saw the link i put there, that program reads the phone (im guessing because it gives me the menu only when connected) but when i try and install the factory rom etc.. it says "error, phone not found"
Thanks!

so it wont wake up. Well i would pull the battery then put it back in. Now hold the vol button down while pressing the power. Now you are in recovery. Wipe everything (partition, data factory reset, and dalvik located under the advanced menu) now relash the rom or another rom. Make sure you download a rom and place on the sd card first.

is it completely black? or it shows htc then fades to black?
Did you hold volume down, tap the power button without letting go of volume down, keep holding volume down until the htc logo appears?

Replacing hboot may fix it. But if your board is going bad it will probably happen again. I would just replace it while you can. Refurbs aren't bad, especially if they are in better shape than your current 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:

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.
Hi,I don't know if the word "bricked" or "drowned" is the best match for my case,but anyways here is my story:I had installed on my phone the kyrilos rom,I don't remember wich version excactly it has been too long before.My phone fell into a glass of water,I pulled battery out,dried it up with hair styler,after that it had some water marks on the screen and it was working quite good,I re-flashed it abd worked better,the watwr marks on the screen dissappeared and got better...but...my girlfriend reebooted accidently in recovery and it dropped dead,froze,I pulled the battery out,reebooted,and after that I am stuck in phone's logo and it keeps loading nothing ..forever..and I can't even boot to recovery mode..any ideas?I've searched in this blog and I couldn't find anything to do..please help me..

Hello falks..
my HTC one x phone won't respond ..
this happened when I maybe disabled one of the system features by the Carot app ..
Now when I open the phone, I get a BLANK screen .. and I can't access any of the phone features .. and when I press the power button, it just restart and the same thing happen again and again.
I couldn't upgrade the system through my computer, because when I plug it, it says CHARGE only ! and I can't change it.

Can you get into TWRP?
Hold the power button for ~10-15 seconds (lights should start flashing) and hold down volume down.
You can let go of power when you see the HTC screen, but not volume down

Hi all, yesterday my explorer started lagging and i decided to remove the battery (after not responding for 1min), but when i tried to boot it up again, nothing happened at all not even the screen was lighted.I tried to enter bootloader again nothing.I reinserted the battery and try to enter bootlader a couple of times and finally i got it.I hit reboot but the same again nothing happened.
I had installed jaggyrom 3.2.1 for 4 months and everything was working perfect.

No after the first time i got it to enter the bootloader i cant enter again ...i tryied these steps but nothing
1-While the phone is turned off, press and hold the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons together. Then, while holding these, press and release the Power button (keep holding the volume buttons)
2- While the phone is turned off, press and hold the Volume Down button. Then, while holding, press and release the Power button.
3-While the phone is off, press and hold down Volume Up + Home + Power buttons at the same time
Are these correct?

Yes, i booted into the bootloader and hit reboot, but since then i cant enter again the bootloader which is why i started this thread..
I press these buttons the right way ..i'e tryied all the combinations with battery re-insert each time but nothing...
Leave battery out for some time (10 min.), then while holding vol- pres power key, DO NOT release vol- it should get in the bootloader, then simply just flash some rom from recovery. The important thing is to leave it 10 minutes first.
Or try something else, while the phone is off, insert the usb in it, with me it's turning on, it's cwm recovery bug, but a good one .
not able to acces recovery mode
i am using htc explorer with jaggy rom 3.after few months when i tried to go in recovery mode my phone reboots.i tried re flashing CWM recovery.it says successful but still i am not able to access??????????
Hey,
Are you able to go to bootloader? If yes don't worry you will have to reflash the recovery. Download twrp or yannous recovery. And flash it,

Hi all, yesterday my explorer started lagging and i decided to remove the battery (after not responding for 1min), but when i tried to boot it up again, nothing happened at all not even the screen was lighted.I tried to enter bootloader again nothing.I reinserted the battery and try to enter bootlader a couple of times and finally i got it.I hit reboot but the same again nothing happened.
I had installed jaggyrom 3.2.1 for 4 months and everything was working perfect.
What can i do to get it running up again?
Thanx!

I'm not sure at what condition is your phone right now. But the most common process I'm telling you is,
Take out your battery. Reinsert.
Hold down power button and volume down button all together until you get your screen emits light. This will take you to the fastboot menu. There select Recovery mode(no matter which recovery you're using). Like if you're usin ClockworkMod Recovery. In the menu, select wipe data/factory reset. Then go to mounts and format option. Mount /cache, /data, /system, /sd-ext(in case you're having a second partition). Remember NOT to mount sd-card. Right from the same menu, format boot, cache, system, data, sd-ext. This time again remember NOT to format sd-card otherwise you'll loose all your data. Now go back to main menu and select advanced option. There select wipe dalvik-cache to not to face low memory problems. Now go back. Select install zip from sd-card. choose zip from sd-card(choose the zip folder of a custom ROM). Install the package. Wait. After completion, reboot or you may have wipe data/factory reset before rebooting. These are the most common steps that works in almost every custom ROM. You can also follow the particular steps (if given) from anywhere you downloaded it. Wait for 2-5 or more minutes at the first boot as it take more time. The process may appears complicated but you'll find it easy when you'll do it.
Hope this thing will sort out your problem. Please hit 'Thanks' if I helped you or atleast do it for humanity that I typed that much for you.

I think he is having key combination problem.
@ S.alwaz
He should press volume down key first and then keeping the vol down key pressed, press the power as well. Now keep pressed both until bootloader appears. Enter recovery and follow the post above for flashing New ROM.
Pressing power first and then volume down key doesn't work. I checked here.
Hit "THANKS". It encourages me.
Does anyone know if the battery is charging even if the screen doesnt show anything (the charging animation) ? I m saying cause it might not boot at all due to a discharged battery...(although the battery was 50% charged when it broke down)
I've tried booting it connected to a usb but still nothing.

Is you battery ok?
Have you checked it with another phone?
Have you checked another battery on your phone?
What was exactly you doing when you got it off?
Are you rooted?

My pico takes my to recovery when if the phone is switched off and I connect it to USB or charger only when I have bootloops or my /system, /boot is formatted. You may try it.

Hey , this was a problem for me when my pico went to recovery on connecting charger when phone was switched off..
then i flashed the yannou90's recovery and now it charges with the animation while its off...
not going into recovery when charger is connected...
And @cpgr
try this if it works...
1.)connect your phone to ac charger and leave for 30 minutes
2.)remove the charger and press the key combination as- press the volume down key and keep it pressed...now press the power key and keep both the keys pressed till the screen turns on... then leave the power key first and then the volume down key...
3.)now go to the recovery... [ is it working for you...??]....{ALSO, i recommend yannou90's cwm based recovery, you should try that as well if you already don't have it... }
4.)then wipe data/factory reset , wipe cache and install any Custom rom you like...
....
...
.
After this all.... give a detailed reply on whats not working for you...in the above steps...
i think these should work out great....
best of luck

Hi,
really need help...I was about to sold my old HTC Sensation XE, rooted and had viper 5.2.1 on it - deleted everything from SD card, but wanted to be sure nothing remained on my phone so I made factory reset (i think I shouldn't to this)..
Now when I turn phone On it loads HTC logo, then Viper logo and restarts and then again HTC, Viper restart...
When I hold power button + vol.down nothing happens (HTC->Viper and restart) + all the buttons are flashing...
Did I bricked my phone for good or is there a way how to reflash everything?
Thanks

U must be doing it wrong or ur volume button is dodgy. Ur phone being in a bootloop should not affect getting into bootloader once uv pulled the battery.
I'm sure it was working before (my girlfriend used it a never told me she is not available to lower the sound)
why are bottom buttons flashing while holding power + vol down?

I dunno, mine does that if im in a bootloop n i try a hard reset. Dont worry. The vol button mite work but she mite just need to give it an extra push, no harm in cleaning it coz the sensations r bad for dust getting in there. K pull the battery out for a min n put back in then press and hold vol down (hard) and press n hold power button. U should get to bootloader, keep trying till u do. As long as u pull the battery out u should get there at some point.
Sometimes I also have to pull the battery out twice to make it go into bootloader. Just make sure you have enough charge in the battery too.
no luck... tried it around 20 times and nothing... communication via fastboot is not working..
so I guess there is no other way how to enter recovery as vol down and power
?

Dunno bud should work. U can try adb commands but dunno if that will work tho. So boot ur phone normaly and when its at boot animation, plug in ur phone to pc and open command window n type
adb reboot recovery
