Hey, I installed ICS on my Nexus S. After that, the phone doesn't boot (stays at loading screen). When I wanted to go to recovery to issue the problem, it doesn't work.
- I boot the phone with Bootloader option
- Then, I put Recovery option and the phone restarts and the Google logo appears,
but
- After, appears an android logo with a poligon and the screen is going to black for ever (the controls are iluminated).
Can anyoneissue this problem?
Thanks.
P.D: I didn't make any format (dalvik, data, etc) I forgot it.

Thanks a lot!
could you try to reboot in recovery via ADB? (adb reboot recovery)
The ICS recovery for i9023 is bugged, it does not turn the backlight on, try shining a bright light on it

You're right. It shows an Android Icon in horizontal position with an exclamation on it. What does it mean?

The ADB doesn't recognize my phone. ADB is configured, Drivers are updated. But debuging mode wasn't enabled (is that the problem). Thanks

that is the same thing that popped up for gingerbread recovery, except it it just a different logo/symbol. I had the same problem, you just need to shine an extremely bright light on it, so when the android icon comes up in recovery, do the same as gingerbread. Hold down and just press the power button once and you will then go to your recovery menu and all options are available.
It's a very annoying bug, but it's just the backlight is out.

The icon still there, lying there with an exclamation. After a while the phone just reboot. Any menu appears.

Holding volume down and tapping power doesn't do anything?

If you only see a black screen you can still flash, just connect to the PC, open RSDLite, if the phone isn't there just use the power button till it appears.
If you are in a bootloop on bootanimation you need to do a full wipe, just press VOLDOWN+POWER till you see the greenandroid and then press VOLUP+VOLDOWN to access the menu.
If you only the white and black moto logo you need to flash boot_only.sbf

Ok, it's fine now, but stills give me the cache error, but... it seems to be working
Thanks
I'm new to Android and had my phone rooted everything seems good with the root but as soon as I go into rom manager and try to go into recovery mode I get the white HTC screen then starts to turn kinda brownish then black and will stay like that until phone is shut off. Please help I can't download any custom roms due to this I'm guessing. Thanks
Open Rom manager again. Press the option at the top to flash the recovery. After its done try to boot into recovery again.
Sent from Desire HD or Inspire 4G or whatever this thing is called via premium XDA app.
Ya I tried that already a few times and still does not work also changed the clockworkmod recoveries and nothing
Have you tried booting into recovery manually by holding volume down and pressing the power button? I find this way is more reliable that ROM manager.
Is there a trick to that I tried it my phone vibrates and get the power off option but no reboot to recovery thanks
Have you turned fastboot off? settings - applications - remove check from fastboot
Make sure fastboot is off, like the poster above me said. Turn your phone off. Hold the volume down and press the power button. You should then be able to scroll down and select recover.
All you guys are awesome the headache is gone it worked thanks very much
actually when i go into recovery i still get that htc screen that turns black and will frezze up
Did you use Bubby323's root method? That is what it sounds like. If you did, then read the FAQ. There is a fix for this graphical error.
I seem to be having an issue with my phone. I'm still a noob, so bare with me. I used the HTC Dev tool to unlock my phone. Then I used the flashboot boot boot.img command to try to install a rom. The phone reset on its own and booted to the splash screen and then a black screen. I let it sit for 5 mins and then pulled the battery and put it back in and booted into bootloader and then into recovery. Tried to run cwm but it wouldn't find the rom to flash. Took the card out it put it into another phone and it said it was bad. Got a new card and tried from beginning but not getting any farther. In CMW I can select any of the options and it just goes to to the circle screen. Wont wipe the phone, wont reboot the phone, nothing. If I try to let it boot without going into the bootloader I get the splash screen and then the black screen. Thanks in advance for your help!
Not sure what version of CWM you are using. But normally if you see the circle with the hat, you are pushing the wrong button on the phone to select the items. If I remember it's either the power button or camera button.
Thanks!

Wow, don't I feel dumb! Yeah, I was hitting the power button to select and it is the trackpad that I should have been pressing. Thanks for the help!
Hi,
i've do an error with sense 5 rom flash.
I have rebooted the phone before flashing boot.img. I have try to put the one x in fastboot or recovery mode but nothing (this phone have very **** keys). After I shot down phone but now don't start. If I connect to charger red light works, same at PC. Windows recognize phone as HTC mtp devices and show me unity letter but i can't do nothing.
Battery 70%.
Any ideas?
Thank's

If you're phone is read as an mtp device that means it's not dead and the rom is loaded. The screen is black I take it and won't come on?
reboot to bootloader
either using adb (adb reboot bootloader)
or
manually (hold power button until capacitive buttons blink a bunch of times and the phone shuts off then let go of power and press and hold volume until bootloader comes on)
If you still can't see the screen while in bootloader, then your screen is dead.

Are you saying the buttons are actually not working properly?
MTP mode plays havoc with adb, and sometimes fastboot. Of course, if you are not able to access recovery, adb, or fastboot, you are in a very tough spot.
Is the device S-off or S-on?

I hate this kind of situation. Very comic......
So I was given a TF300T broken screen. I replaced the screen and had about 10 white dots all over the screen.
Cold restarted no love the white dots where still there and screen cal was out.
So I decided to factory restart not knowing it was rooted.
Now it's frozen at the factory restart Android with blue line below.
I have tried Vol down and pwr.................. nothing
Any ideas.......

You clicked wipe data?
Look up Buster's recovery script in the general section and try that.

Have you tried buster99's recovery scripts?
Yup tried busters scripts... Every time I enter a command it always stays at " waiting for device" and never does anything
So I have to restart the cmd prompt to try next line or try same line again.
Is this right

Do you have access to fastboot or recovery terminal command or not?
in short no I don't think so. when it boots it.goes as follows:
A:
Press power (or power and Down)
ASUS logo appears together with Your device is unlocked (in top left)
Then goes to screen with robot and progress bar as if restoring, where it freezes after 20 sec

Ah OK. Sounds like it has a file cached that it is trying to flash. Unfortunately without fastboot we can't attempt to wipe it.
