[Q] Htc One S Black screen Brick - HTC One S

Hello... I was using CM nightly then i wanted to overclock my phone so i flashed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2061577 Then everything was working fine but i wasnt able to enable the Wi-Fi it was grayed out on disabled.Then i wanted to fix it so i flashed another kernel(i will post what kernel about tomorrow it probably is for ICS)(yes im a noob i realised that later with an awesome facepalm)so... now im stuck in a black screen and i cannot hear anything from my phone. i cant boot it into bootloader and/or TWRP recovery there is only a black screen i can see that it works cuz if i have it connected on my laptop the laptop makes the USB connection sound and/or disconnection one so it is probably working (i tryed holding the power button for 10 and then VOL down to put it on bootloader after the 10 sec's my laptop made a sound but i wasnt able to make it work...) so im stuck here.
P.S.:I would really apriciate your help.Sorry for F*cking English Grammar

man, you need to reduce your font
and you flashed a kernel for the one x
sorry about your situation, but you are going to have to read more stuff and more carefully
this happened to someone else forget solution if any
try a google on flashing one x kernel on a one s, unless someone replies soon
---------- Post added at 08:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57 PM ----------
btw i never saw much advantage to overclocking for me anyway
if you get this sorted, i would stay with stock kernels for now. have a nandroid and sdcard bu on pc.
i prefer twrp recovery, but not the latest one as it has issues
read all OP pages very carefully and i read first/last 20 pages or so of the thread
always include System as part of your full wipes
---------- Post added at 08:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:03 PM ----------
also, hold vol- then pwr at same time until the soft keys blink 3 times. release pwr but continue holding vol-
hold it down til phone boots--give it a minute
you can try using adb if you have that set up on pc

will do/try all of your tip's
about the vol- and then pwr... this just doesnt work cuz the second kernel i flashed was for ICS and they wont light up if they were lightning up it would be easy cuz i cound access bootloader and then all fixed :crying:

Sorry OP, but it sounds like you're bricked. You see QHSUSB_DLOAD when you connect your phone to the PC? You flashed a One X kernel, which is probably why.
You can try the steps in the development unbricking thread.

yeah, don't sound good
you didn't say is you know how to use adb from a command window on pc
you could try rebooting bootloader from there as a try before unbricking
or go the jtag route

well i tryed accessing adb even when unbricken but couldn't manage to make it work... (tryed enabling it from developer options&usb mode) i read somewhere that JB 4.2.2 has an extra security level and it wont be supported by cyanogenmod 10.1

you don't access it you need to have htc drivers on phone and install the adb and fastboot files onto your pc. put hem in a folder of your choice with only them there.
you then open a command window on pc and cd to that folder and type "adb reboot bootloader" with no quotes
if you meant that, sorry i misunderstood
most people install the android sdk if they plan on doing a lot of adb/fastboot commands

So im stuck?
So im stuck? i cant do anything else i mean i cant get into the partitions and edit'em... probably not so my phone is over had it less than a month :crying:

Yes. You flashed an unknown kernel, which just says CM10.1 nightly without reading what devices the kernel is for! It would be a good idea to check if it is for the One S, or Ville, since CM10.1 is available for more than 20 devices!

You shouldn't be smiling too much, you have a bricked device
You will have to try and recover your device using the thread below. You can skip the "creating the brick" section, since you already have a brick. DO NOT USE THE UNLIMITED.IO tool to reset the phone, since it will not work and make the situation worse.

Here are all images (make sure you use the proper images for your device. If you are unsure, remove battery and check label):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1063664
For fastboot, you basically need to follow the first part on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007782
It basically setting your machine with the proper drivers for Nexus S and installing SDK tools so that you can use fastboot and install bootloader, boot and recovery.

Are you using a i9023? Are you sure you didn't update to ICS with it and just can't see it because the backlight bug in that release? If that is the case, it is possible you just didn't clear your cache before upgrading.

help unbricking tablet

i rooted it after the ics ota using vipermods root program (cant remember what its called) and now its stuck in CMW and wont reboot past that. i learned that this version of CMW for the transformer has those issues and found a thread thats like a support thread and has ways to fix it. i tried all the methods it gave me and non seemed to work. Im posting this here instead of on that thread cause im hoping for some more direct help. Any idea?
Also: I am a total noob at using ADB and stuff so youll have to bear with me.
Hold the volume down key immediately after pressing "Reboot now" in CWM. When the white letters start at the top left you can let go. Choose to boot to Android.
After that you should be able to connect using adb. That will be the key in using adb in CWM. Once you get adb running you can reboot, run the adb script to stop the reboot and fix that nasty boot issue.
Good luck.

If you can cold boot into the OS you can use Terminal emulator also if you're not good with ADB.
Do what wolftroy1 stated above, if you can't get it working that way just turn your tablet totally off.
Now push and hold VOl down plus power button
When you see words scrolling at top left
wait a bit till you see option to wipe data or cold boot
choose cold boot to see if you can get into the OS
im cold booting into linux (thats what it said when i chose Android when it gave me the option between Wipe Data and Android) and its been about 5 minutes. its still at that same screen. How long is this boot supposed to take?
It shouuldnt take more than 10 minutes or so.

Did I brick my phone...?

Okay, so I was on Sense 3, unrooted. I tried to root, but it had to downgrade me to GB. That went okay. Here's the issue.
After going through the whole root process with Gingerbread, Command Prompt said that root was successful(Not those exact words, but I remember myself thinking, "YES!"). Then, when it booted into the HTC screen, it faded away slowly and now it's a dim black screen. Nothing but that. Can I get some help from anyone?

Does the phone boot into the rom as usual? If it does, search for fastbook and uncheck it. It's either under development settings or battery or one of those.
Edit: I just went through your posts. Buddy, just read the whole guide I sent you. Try to familiarize yourself with it and you will be fine.

Well it goes to the screen that says HBOOT in blue. On top it says "ACE PUT SHIP S-OFF RL" then some other stuff. If I do Reboot or Recovery, it goes to the same dim lighted screen. Should I do a Factory Reset then just try to root again?

Nope, cause you are already rooted. If you run the hack kit again, chances are you will mess something up. That is what the s-off means.
Why it goes to the dim screen, no idea. Read the effen manual, find out what is going on. This part is serious, read the effen manual. If you don't find the solution there, then go to the irc channel and ask for help. Be patient. If you requesting for help for something that is covered in the manual, you will be ignored and kicked from the channel. So read the effen manual.
That is, if the problem started after running the hack kit. If not, well, take a different route.

I can 100% confirm that the HK said "Attained root, s-off, and installed Clockworkmod" It's just after that that things got messed up. When I tried to turn it on normally this morning, the orange LED started flashing and it viberated 3 times. Nothing else except the flashing LED. I understand that if I had bricked it, the ugly Red ! triangle would come up, right?
Come on, I know SOMEONE can help! Please, people? I want to try to have it running AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, rooted or not. Is it harmful that I've rooted it before, then unrooted it? I unrooted less than a month ago, in case it matters. I wanted to use Blackout ICS, so I wanted to root it again.

Can you use adb from the blacked out screen. What happens when you plug it in to your computer after turning it on, does the pc at least recognize it. If so you can use adb to reboot it into recovery. Once there install a Rom. Seems you have no boot IMG at the moment which would be causing your problem.

Have you tried pulling the battery for a few seconds too and then booting into hboot. It's probably a good idea to get into hboot first to confirm you have s off. Adb can be used to boot into bootloader as well.

Yes, I do have S-Off, the HBOOT screen says so, and so did Command Prompt. How do I get into ADB? I already have my preferred ROM on my memory card.
We need to see if adb can even recognize your phone. Use this guide to get adb running on pc. Boot phone as normal and let it go to black screen then plug into pc. From there type "adb devices" and it should list a device. From there type "adb reboot recovery". If you still can't get to recovery but device is recognized flash recovery again from aahk options menu from same black screen. And try the adb recovery command again. If you get to recovery report back as there is a trick to flashing blackout that I'll fill you in on so you dont end up back where you are. Aroma installer in blackout can cause issues if not done properly.

Never mind, I was so nervous I didn't read it its currently flashing.
Update: It STARTED, but then it said Device not found, waiting for device. What now?? The ADB recognized it, and so did the hack kit at first.
You could try flashing recovery by this alternate method in this thread. You could also try and installing a rom via PD98IMG which is also covered is this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20382502
Once back to stock by Rom method you could just reflash recovery and then a Rom.

Before I read this, I tried flashing it again through AAHK again. It SEEMED like it finished. It said a bunch of things on cmd, then returned to the Main Menu without telling me it flashed. Then I pressed SOME kind of combo with the V & Power, and it came up to a screen that I didn't have much time to look at. It looked KIND OF the same as CWM, but I'm pretty sure I read the words Ace Hack Kit. What is that?
Another update: It was CWM, but the screen was flashing so I didn't know what to do. I know how to navigate around it(I was rooted a few months back), but I didn't have time do much before it completely exited and went to the usual.

[Q] need boot for nexus s i9023 urgent

i need boot for my nexus because i tried tu update it to android 4.0.3 but i didn't save his rom either boot so the new boot dosn't work so it erase the ancien boot and the new one so my phone doesn't work since
so please give me the rom and the boot for nexus s i9023 and even the way how to install them
thanks
How did you update? That's really important to know. If it was an OTA update and your phone was stock, then you'd better go to Samsung service center, because you do not seem to know what happened.
If you used some tool like recovery or fastboot or adb, then you can find the info you are looking for in the same thread where you downloaded this tools.
Just look into the stickies and look for the OTA factory images for exactly your phone model.
Good luck

yes I did the update in fastboot mine is Nexus S i9023 but I did it with the i9023T and everything from upset
Ok. Calm down your attention deficit for a moment and explain to us in a few points what you did and what is happening now.
1) Nexus S lights up when pressing power (Y/N)
2) Can you access fastboot (Y/N)
3) Do you have a custom recovery (Y/N)
If 1 is Y, then nothing is lost, but you'll need to be clear and follow to the letter. 2 and 3 are helpful but not necessary.
thnx
thank you polobunny
firstly (1) my phone will not turn on ,just the 4 keys down at the bottom of the menu and back

If the keys at the bottom light up, then your phone is not bricked.
Pull your battery out, then put it back in. Hold VOL + and press power while holding it. This should bring you to fastboot menu.
Tell me if that works.
If your keys ligth up, use this method wich is specific for your case :

but your keys light up... the thread ask for keys to light up or the screen to light up. if your keys light up, it means that ur pc will recognize it. but android is based on linux. so windows will not recognize it. go for what im saying try that thread! it takes up 30 min of your time to a usb flash with linux and use that program. u have nothing to loose!

The Vibrant is a different phone. You're lucky you didn't brick your phone.

Know your model number, read, search.

Technically, you'd only hardbrick with bootloaders. I flash bad kernels to my phone all the time, and haven't needed to resurrect since april.
As long as you flash stuff that doesn't flash bootloaders, you should always get to download mode.
But! It is possible to brick your phone in other ways, like flashing a kernel that does something to a 'like device' that doesn't work the same as the intended device. Say, a kernel that does a voltage workaround for the LCD with a different voltage value on one device may fry the LCD on your device (a board layout difference). Or like RaverX3X did once, and "bricked" his phone by accidentally putting another 0 in his gpu voltage values.
People that flash other phones roms and come to this forum for help, never read the stickies or searched.
Lesson #1, Always read and know your model number. Always Search all subforums of a device before posting.
The "I'm a noob help help help" subject almost always means "I didn't read or search, and I flashed a vibrant rom. Now what do I do."
