[URGENT] Phone stuck in constant vibration loop *BRICKED*

I was sending a text message tonight and out of no where the phone's screen turned off and went into a vibration loop. Took out the battery and put back in and as soon as I put in the battery the phone boots up and passes the samsung logo and goes into vibration loop, tried to enter clockwork recovery and it won't work! it gives like a mini CRT-off animation and reboots what do I do? Been running skyics for almost 2 months now no issues. cant enter download mode either wtf!
*edit* I guess I need to order a USB JIG? Not sure tho since I cant enter download mode or CWR.. once I enter download mode when it gives me the warning to "install custom OS" blah blah, and it just reboots itself and then boot loops with vibration.. not sure if my phone qualifies for a soft brick or hard brick.

Which sky ics?

Do you have a device support center near you? I had the same problem running a custom from and brought it there..they couldn't even flash it back to stock because it would boot loop so they just gave me a new one

One before the latest one, UDLD2 or w.e.. so is my phone hard bricked or soft? And I might try to get warranty work done.. I don't understand why this happened tho, doesn't make sense.. not like I dropped the phone a second before it happened

It sounds soft bricked. Can you get into DL mode? Odin stock tar?

You didn't read the OP post properly. No I can not get into DL mode, it just restarts the phone when it tries to after giving the "custom OS warning"

Maybe you have debris bridging the battery contracts like that other one a while ago. There is a thread called something like, symptoms of a bricked phone.

same thing happened to me. Since they can't load it up to see the warranty is voided, you will just get a new one.

I think it is the reason. I Have been seeing it on both the t989 and here. I think it's the same bug the note has. Wiping with the ics kernel is making bricks everywhere. It's just starting to happen and be documented on the rocket and 989. That's just my guess, taker it or leave it.

That's the same thing that's happening with the note. Some run fine for a long time, some get bricked almost immediately after. I'm not saying this is your case, but it might be. I'm avoiding the ics leak. I ran it fine for longer than a month, but I'm done with it now.

I thought the bricking was related to using the notes modem (in the note and in the skyrocket).

There's at least one sticky in the note forum about it, should be easy to spot. As far as the 989, I have seen a couple threads with similar problems like you. I'm not gonna hunt them down right now, I'm on my phone

same problem except mine wouldnt even go to the boot logo. when i tried to turn it on it would just vibrate. sent it into samsung and they replaced the PCB and it worked fine,

Anybody recently check for system updates.. I did just for the he'll of it and got an update. New Software V.2.20. It took about 15 minutes to update. Anybody have any idea what the update fixes or changes?

check your android version. Is it 4.04?
I think you've just closed any loopholes to rooting and unlocking the boot loader.

if it's 4.04 android you'll have more RAM and thus better multitasking. If it's similar to the leak from Asia, you can change the behavior of the recent apps button in settings. You can make it be the menu button, like god intended.

Also, some have mentioned that the multitasking memory management itself seems tweaked in the Asia 2.23 ROM. Its less aggressive about killing apps. Personally, I've been fine with the multitasking thing, so I haven't noticed much of a difference.
Other changes from the 2.23 Asia ROM, aside from the ability to remap the buttons (go Settings>Display, gestures & buttons), the ROM seems a bit smoother all around, such as going between home screens and opening the app drawer. Not too many other big differences on the surface, but that doesn't mean they didn't tweak a bunch of things under the hood.
One other real minor thing I noticed, if you plug the phone into USB, when you select what you want to do (Charge only, Disk Drive, etc.) the "Done" button is gone. I guess it gives one less thing you have to push when making your selection.
What are the kernel and baseband numbers?

You should always assume an OTA will lock you out for good. In fact, I hope it does permanently block everyone from rooting ever again just so I can laugh at all the people who blindly accept an OTA because they think it will turn their phone into a sex doll or something. I can understand that type of behavior on Android Central, but this is xda and it's geared directly at people who root/mod their phones. If a stupid MR OTA is more important than being able to root, then xda is not the forum for you. FYI this comment is not a personal attack, it is a general statement for everyone who jumps to accept an OTA without thinking.

I remember the HTC aria 2.2 froyo update locked rooting out for a while, but the persistent devs the fixed that fairly quick stop I wouldn't worry too much :thumbup:
As for JB, it took 9mo for the HTC Rezound to get ICS, sooooo...
Sent from my HTC One X

Wasn't too worried about being locked out for good. Thought I was with the last update. This phone is a far cry from my little Aria but like to follow along with developments and don't mind testing things out for those who want keep root but want to know what the future holds for the stock phones that will becoming out with this update

[Q] How to get ATT One x back to stock 2.20?

I am running Nocturnal Special Edition 4.0 and I would like to get it back completely to stock, I have tried the 2.20 RUU and it would tell me my battery wasn't charged enough though it was, I also tried looking further into the Q&A and got confused and fragmented. So, for short, what do I need to do to wipe this thing to complete stock? I am quite new here so please pardon me. Thank you.

May I ask why would you like to go back.to stock?

Small but noticeable bugs, and i'm kind of tired of worrying about my phone all the time, I just want a phone for a phone right now. Yeah I won't have warranty but at least I'll feel safe knowing my phone will not explode in my hand. Aha, my feelings are strange but I hope you get the point.

[Q] Can't get PHOTOSPHERE to work on HOXL

Yea first post, I expect to get trolled or flamed but I can't find this anywhere. pretty new to the custom roms and stuff but rooted and flashed for the first time last week. After trying iono 4 or 5 different roms settle on Rebel Codename-Android- ver3.6.5. Ireally want teh 4.2 camera saw a vid on youtube by team nocturnal and his camera worked jsut fine for the one xl. I can't get it to work at all. I've tried this om cm10 and the king kang mod and the codename mod. Anyone know how to fix this or get it working? Kind of tired of rearranging my apps after reflashing.
**EDITED** I've gotten the camera working just fine but can't get photosphere to work, I understand it's a gyro issue just hoping this topic edit will bring up a possible solution anyone has stumbled on.

Yea I have gapps, I have the camera working now but I can't get photosphere to work. Maybe I should revise the question to that?

Its a known issue with newer XL's that photosphere doesn't work because of a different gyroscope.
As far as the people that have successfully downgraded hboot, I don't know if it works for them now.

Supposedly cm10 fixed the gyro issue a few days ago. I could not say for sure. photosphere was working for me until the 25th and flashed 10.1.

I was running nightlies up 'till last night (flashed back to CM10 today) and photosphere wasn't working for me... The last nightly I used was for the 28th.

I was thinking calibrating the g sensor would help but I cant even find the option after getting off the stock ROM

I actually just read that it's due to the fact that there are two types of One XL gyroscopes, one type is just a normal gyro, but the other uses two, and CM devs didn't know that apparently, so it works on the ones with a normal gyro but not ours I guess. That's what I heard.

No problems so far that I've seen...everything seems to be working. As mentioned above, camera works really well too.

For some reason I couldn't get the screen to turn back on after locking the screen. The capacitive buttons would light up but that's it. Switched to rohans aokp and everything is good. But I was expecting standby battery life to be better. After 9 hours and only 20 min of screen time and batter was down to 60%

Works well for me too. As someone said that the voice command for texting was broken, mine was too. After another wipe/flash it worked just as it well as it could. Only other bug that I encountered was that my lock screen freezes... but that's just old news. I love it overall.
