Hi,
I apparently bricked my phone after flashed the rom viper 1.2.1. The phone don't boot: when I try to boot to the bootloader or I press volumes + power, leds twinkle about 15 times, then I get the HTC logo and then black screen.
I tried this tutorial : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1990043 but I'm stopped at the first step: the phone is not recognized in QDL mode but HTC (High Tech Computer Corp.). Could you please help me
PS : sorry for my bad english
You should be able to run adb reboot bootloader during the htc loading screen.
Edit: Oh, and its not a hardbrick, far from it.
Okay, could you say me how to run adb reboot bootloader please.
I have news too : it seems that the battery has discharged this night, so I connect to the PC, the orange LED blinks about 5 times and then the phone turns on the recovery (CMW)

well i had trouble installing the trickroid v7 on my [S3] and it will say OS not installed.
then after many tries, of pulling the usb in and out and restarting several times to bootlocker
I cannot open to bootlocker anymore and the phone seems to died and not be able to charge.
WHEN I HOLD POWER button and volume down, all 3 soft touch keys lit up for 6~7 seconds, then the the black screen flashes a green line and off.
I cannot connect to the computer through usb either, for some reason.
i have the same problem.my phone worked fine, i unlocked bootloader, installed recovery and rooted. yesterday i put my phone on charging and today it was dead??? it flashes 7 times while holding vol down + power and then nothing happens.
EDIT:
i got it working!!! i connected it to pc, run adb command: adb reboot-bootloader and i got bootloader menu, after that i went into recovery and i did factory defaults and rebooted phone,now it's charging and everything is OK!

man.. i know i can fix it... but i cant connect to the damn pc. it unable to detect it... !!!
this is what i have done and got it working. connect phone to pc that has installed htc drivers, hold down volume down button + power, phone flashes 7 times and orange led is working now. after that go to adb, type adb devices and my phone serial number was shown. after that i did the adb reboot-bootloader and my phone was alive again.
p.s. i tried also with HTC One S All-In-One Toolkit V1.1,before i made it, to send command, but phone led only show orange light and again went off. u can give a try.... if that dont work, then i think phone is dead and ready for repair :/
Hello everyone,
Some time ago I've decided to flash a costume ROM on my HTC One S (S4), as its warranty expired. This is my first time doing such a thing to an Android device.
Earlier today, I unlocked the bootloader successfully, flashed Team Win Recovery Project and than flashed the latest snapshot of CyanogenMod 11 by following the steps described in the CyanogenMod website.
After the installation finished, I rebooted the device from the TWRP menu. However, the device did not boot at all.
If I try powering the device on (holding the power button for 2-3 seconds) or try getting to the bootloader menu (holding the volume down and power buttons), nothing happens. Hard reset does not work either: I hold the power button, the soft buttons (back-home-recent apps) blink fifteen time, the HTC splash screen ("quietly brilliant") is shown, and then the phone shuts down again.
* The battery is not drained -- after I installed the ROM, the device had around 90% charge.
* My computer does not recognize the device, so I cannot use adb or fastboot commands. [Obviously, this is not a driver problem -- I used the same computer to unlock bootloader and for the flashing.]
Is my device bricked? If not, is there a solution for my problem?
Thanks in advance,
Yoni

You may have a chance if you can get into "Bootloader"
Try holding the Power Button and Count to 10 Exactly to power it down and then try Power Button and Volume Down to get into "Bootloader" (Unplug the USB)
If you can get into Bootloader, check if your phone is "S-off". If its "S-on" Then you flash the kernal into the phone..
I've broken my phone! I was rooted, and was installing a custom rom. It worked fine for a few hours, and now the phone won't boot up in normal, recovery or fastboot modes. All I get is the android logo and then a white screen for a few seconds, and this repeats until i get fed up and turn it off again.
My device is a Vodafone 785 and my pc is running Windows 7 with the latest drivers installed and updated.
When I plug the phone into the computer, it tries to register but the flashtool says the device is not recognized, so I can't re-install my recovery image.
I've been at this for about three weeks now, and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get this working again. Can someone please help?

Hi, try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/vodafone-smart-4-mini-killed-vodafone-t2869185
Yes I tried that one and most of the other threads about this damn phone. It won't boot in recovery. I've tried Power button and volume up AND Power button and volume down. All I get is android logo for a few seconds and white screen for another few seconds and this will loop until the end of time. Using SP Flashtool, the computer won't recognize the device when I plug in the USB with either the battery removed or inserted into the phone.

Unfortunately, it sounds like the device may be unrecoverable.
I'm not for giving up. Somehow I'll find a way to fix this thing. :fingers-crossed:

I had the same exact issue when it switched to slot B and stopped showing up on my computer when the device was in fastboot and I had no access to recovery mode. Try powering the phone down from fastboot with the power off menu. Then turn the phone on by holding the power button down and keep it pressed (it should cycle on and off b/w fastboot and a black screen. Keep holding until you feel a short vibration after about 30s - 1 min) It should then show it in adb and fastboot on your computer.
EDIT: If the phone isn't powering on, try charging it and if that doesn't work, try hard resetting it by holding the power button down for 30s-1 min. Can't imagine a bad flash would completely cause the phone to at least not load the bootloader.
