[Q] Device completely unusable :( PLZ HELP

I tried following cyanogen wiki on an Inspire 4G. It didn't work and gave "Incorrect Model ID" error.
So I switched to use Hack-Ace tool. Everything worked as expected and I guess I was going good. When Hack-Ace completed, the phone went into an infinite look showing HTC logo then blind to a black screen with background light ON.
I could ADB and reboot in bootloader where I clashed the CM7 ROM. Every step went through fine and it restarted. Now all I get is nothing.
The device shows the HTC Logo on white screen after leaving a while and the vibrator is ON constantly. It doesn't help really but keeps doing that. It will only stop if I remove battery.
Plugging the device into USB doesn't detect on PC.
When tried charging, it shows the error messages and nothing happens, no buttons interact.
I guess I have a full brickd phone now

Have you tried flashing stock ruu thru bootloader

Download and flash this thru bootloader.

Yah, try the ruu. Seeing how it at least turns on means it might be fixable. Can you get into recovery?

You font nerd recovery with that file. Just out it on the root if your sdcard. Meaning not in any folder and boot into bootloader...not recovery then it will recognize the file then just follow onscreen instructions

Dude download the PD98 file above it is the rooted updated gingerbread ROM. Place it in the root of your SD card (you will have to remove SD card and use adapter to move zip file to root of SD card if PC does not recognize phone with USB cable) and power phone off then power back up holding down power button and volume down button at same time. Phone should go to bootloader then it will recognize the PD98 zip file and ask if you want to istall. Volume up for yes and it will do its thing. No need to try to get into recover phone will do it itself with the PD98 zip file. Zip is (ATT ROM 2.47.502.7 w/Radio - 26.10.04.03_M)

silly g2x won't turn on

long story short, the g2x isn't mine but i have plenty of experience rooting android devices. the power button on this one is going so it's days are numbered but atm it's completely unusable as a phone. there's an issue as well with the sdcard. the rom i put on it isn't on it. it showed the file being transferred but for whatever reason it's not there. i checked internal/external....nothing.
so where i'm at now.....the phone's been wiped so powering on the device gets me nowhere. it's getting more difficult to get it to turn on at all so i'm having difficulty getting into recovery. i know it's volume down & power but is there a timing you need to get down? seems it either freezes trying to boot regularly or i go to the s/w screen. any help would be appreciated.

power and volume combo til you see the bluish purple LG logo.

I am not sure what method you used for recovery, but this is the thread I recomend. Follow that and let us know if it works out.

Re-flash the rom to your sd card.

My lg symbol is white. As soon as I see it, it goes straight to the s/w screen. Would love to flash something again, just cannot until I get into recovery. Thanks for the responses but I'm afraid this ones dead Jim.

oh i know it's not bricked. my fingers tips are freaking sore from doing this all night/morning. just trying to turn it on without messing with the volume only works so often. it's just the power button being worn/defective. makes getting it into recovery that much more difficult.

Hope everything gets solved. Try the link it should work.

can't power on a device using adb sadly .
unless anyone ever came across an image file for your sdcard by chance for the g2x i think it's toast. what's a g2x that doesn't boot worth for battery/parts on craigslist?

Usually what I do is hold power+vol down til i see the lg screen, then let go of the power button but continue holding the volume down button.

Rom for recovery will get you back to stock 2.3.3,check the dev forum.
Just make sure you have apx drivers installed then u just nvflash! Make sure you hold both volume up/down the whole time or it wont work.

the problem is it wont turn on the power button is faulty or something...
My advice before parting it out... get it to boot to the lg logo again (hopefully) and then use adb I'm almost positive it will recognize it at the 1st splash screen. If not that then take it apart and with out the case I'm sure you can see what is causing the issue and fix it probably.

Don't know if it would work or not but I'm thinking adb reboot recovery command would do it. If we can get it to show up in adb things can be done for it.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

You don't even need to use the power button for rom for recovery, like I said b4 only holding both volume up/down the whole process will restore the phone back to stock gb rom. After the process is done it automagically reboots the phone, might I suggest an app called button remapper as well.. it can make a useless button (the search button imo) turn into your new power on/off solution.
Hope this helps!
Sent from my SCH-R720 using xda premium

never knew about the button remapper.....have discovered it since things went poopy already.
in any case, adb is recognizing it. never thought that it might, so thanks for the heads up there. however, typing "adb reboot recovery" isn't getting me anywhere. i haven't messed with the recovery but even trying to reflash a recovery just leaves me hanging at "waiting for devices"? can't even seem to get into fastboot mode either. appreciate all the help & advice everyone, thank you.

Ok, first off, sorry about the reboot command, I didn't mean to communicate that that was the exact command. For what I do I usually use Droid Explorer. Which I think may be better in this situation. If it's waiting for devices (unless it's waiting for the device to reboot) then it didn't connect to the phone. But if it did connect then I have an idea. Can you clarify, for my tired mind, what you're meaning with being Connected and waiting for devices.

ok....was able to restore to stock.....rerooted.....have a working recovery again. thank you everyone. i've been through a few different phones and i have to say, it's refreshing to be on xda and have this kind of a response.
on another note, i found buttonremapper but it doesn't seem to work for the g2x (or at least mine). i know cm7 can use the volume to wake the phone. that was what was on the phone before things went bad but it wasn't working. i have no idea how old of a nightly it was though either so i suppose i'll start with that.
big thanks again to everyone!

Please help!

I have the AT&T One X... Ive rooted it, unlocked the bootloader, blah blah blah. Im sort of new at this, so when something happens, Im a little clueless. The point of learning, I suppose. Anyway, today I did a factory reset and restored to my earliest backup. The phone booted originally but then said process.android something or other has stopped working. Phone turned off. Now, when I try to turn it back on, it wont go past the boot animation. Its not connecting to my computer to reboot it with a command, either. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated and ASAP.

From the ROM. Thats when it told me process.android stopped, then went to the htc one x loading screen.

Frankly, my dear, you ****ed up.
Whenever you want to Wipe ANYTHING you have to do it from your recovery (TWRP).
Boot into TWRP by holding the down volume and power, for what seems like a lifetime and try to restore from there?

Now, however, I cant seem to find any ROMs installed on my phone. I know Ive done this somehow before, but how do I get a rom on the phone when the SD card wont mount to my computer?

And when I try to do a factory reset in TWRP it tells me in the dialog: E:Unable to mount /sdcard
Im beginning if this phone and I just werent meant to be. haha

Twrp did the mount thing to me as well. Still plugged USB and PC found the SD anyway. Copied ROM to SD, flash and bingo. Other option is to download the stock RUU.
PS I wouldn't publicly admit u work for at&t. J/k

My computer still doesnt show any connection to the phone. I tried downloading the RUU and when I ran it on PC, it said it couldnt connect to my phone.

When doing RUU, make sure you relock your bootloader. Instructions here http://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-re-lock-htc-one-x-bootloader/
make sure you have HTC Sync and drivers installed if you are flashing RUU.

Also when u get into your bootloader, highlight bootloader and select it. After, right above that, in red it will read fastboot usb. Until then your pc wont recognize it.

It worked! You guys are all awesome!

My phone wont even connect to Keis Air, i tried connecting my phone while its in download mode and when its stuck in the rethink possible screen. Still wont connect to Keis Air.

They way I was able to fix mine was to first open Kies then select initialize firmware and connect phone to USB port in back of PC. Follow the prompts they will ask for model number and serial number it is located under battery. Select OK. Once firmware is finished Downloading it will prompt you to accept, disconnect phone from PC and then place phone in DL mode by removing battery reinsert battery press volume +- and then volume + to continue once you do that then connect phone to PC via USB and follow screen prompt on PC. It took me about one hour for mine to finally return to stock. I'm going from memory because I'm not sitting in front of computer at this time. Maybe someone with more knowledge than I can help. Good luck.

Never mind my last post, you need to be able to boot into a rom to use kdz updater, it's been a while since I had to do this kind of thing.
I'm pretty sure you only soft bricked your phone (i.e. it still turns on) and the only way, that I know of, is to use nvflash. I've had the same problem before, there could be many things that are causing the phone to not be recognized by your computer. Follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17258229
when you plug the usb into your phone make sure the audio on you computer is loud enough for you to hear that "usb recognized" sound. If you don't hear it, or it does not get recognized, try using a different usb port on your computer, believe me that actually worked for me a couple of times. Also, make sure you follow the steps very carefully because if you use the wrong button combination, or release the buttons too early, it won't work.
I wish I could help you more, but that's all i've got.
Good luck, and if by any chance you get it fixed, don't try to root your phone using any root tools, simply nvflash cwm recovery and flash your choice of a custom rom, that will automatically give you root privileges.

every time i look at my apx driver it always tells me to troubleshoot but it always says driver not installed. ive downloaded the same driver in different posts just to make sure but nothing helps. Wireless shops are useless. I live in vegas and there isnt a single store with a person smart enough to figure it out.lol. ive given my phone up for days at a time to shops who brag about "WE CAN FIX ANYTHING" they lied. well i guess im going to search for a few more hours on here to get some kind of lead. thanks for the help. if you kknow anything else or figure something out i would appreciate the help.

Have you tried this stuff?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1619932
It sounds to me like your pc's jacked up the driver somehow. Try plugging in the phone with the battery out and holding all 3 buttons, go into your device manager and uninstall all the USB drivers. Then reboot and try following the apx driver installation procedure again.
Sorry if you tried all this stuff a million times already.

I would say the two things that I would focus on would be to first fix the drivers on your computer. I downloaded mine from the LG website. Next is to flash CWM Recovery so you can flash a rooted ROM to your phone. I would go back to the thread where you got the instructions to start flashing and ask the same questions but only after reading the whole thread. There the orig. developer might chime in and you'll have more specific answers focused on your specific issue.
It's true your phone isn't bricked and have patience and you'll get it fixed.

well i have all the drivers needed. and the computer is fine but the phone is not. i mean the pc doesnt quite read the phone right. with that being said i dont know how to flash cwm recovery to a phone my computer cant read. im running windows 7 64bit and all my usb drivers work fine.

CWM = Clockworkmod Recovery (everyone remember this is a newbie).
Important question: Did you do a backup before making any changes to your phone?
Also, try this: remove your phone's battery for 30 seconds. Put the battery back in. Press and hold the volume down button, then press and hold the power button. Hold both buttons. First you'll see the white LG screen, then wait, when you next see the blue LG screen wait ONE second (no longer) then release the buttons. Tell us what the phone does then and what the screen says.

Have you tried taking out your SIM card and micro SD card?
Usually right after I take them out and plug in my phone while holding volume up and volume down... it usually works after that.
Yup, that's my problem. No matter how many USB ports I tried it still wouldn't read it until I took out the SIM card and micro SD ;p.

Try this on for size...

Sounds like you are having the same the issues i was having with my phone why dont you try this..... First you have to flash a custom recovery image for your phone, follow all the procedures exactly then once you have flashed your CWM Recovery ( i. e. Clockworkmod recovery) Once you have installed that properly, you can now flash your new custom ROM and that should help to fully reboot your phone back to recovery for you to start using again....... hope that works for you.......just as it did for me have a good one!!... :fingers-crossed:

CWM = Clockworkmod Recovery (everyone remember this is a newbie).
Important question: Did you do a backup before making any changes to your phone?
Also, try this: remove your phone's battery for 30 seconds. Put the battery back in. Press and hold the volume down button, then press and hold the power button. Hold both buttons. First you'll see the white LG screen, then wait, when you next see the blue LG screen wait ONE second (no longer) then release the buttons. Tell us what the phone does then and what the screen says.

well i brought it to two shops and were both unsuccessful. wireless toyz and smart fix. i have it back and it goes to the lg screen. and instead of the second it flashes from black to a very dim gray back and forth. when i hold the power button along with the volume down it does a master reset and i can press the home button then it takes me to a screen to delete cache partition and what not and you move up and down with the volume keys but i cannot select anything. i think i really messed my phone up.

Somehow you got stock recovery. Google for howbto do a master reset, on devices like the nexus tablet at my work there's a series of steps needed to do a full reset/restore. Just booting into stock recovery may not give you the option. As well, please post those screen shots as I said earlier, this way the issue with the USB can be troubleshot and maybe we can get you a fully working phone with CWM.
