[SOLVED] Entering bootloader not possible

ok, after following directions on how to flash back to original spl my winxp crashed-blue screen. Haven't seen that in a while and now my maple is stuck.
Even going in the bootloader won't do no more. When i hold the volume down button it's showing directly the 9% progress bar.
Did i brick it for good? Or can i still try the goldcard method?I'd have to buy the software but want to be shure that it will work.
Any advice is very welcome...

First of all: Did you remove the battery? Just remove it, wait a couple of seconds, press and hold volume down and press on/off. Release on/off and then volume key, you should be back to the start of flashing.

Thanxs, tried again and it worked. Was able to flash to the original ROM...didn't press the VOLUME-DOWN and POWER-BUTTON long enough...

i had the same problem now i'm stuck in 9% progress bar...
i really don't know what to do...i tried so many things but no good...
it would be nice if someone helped me..

Hi there,
i just tried the same:
- battery out
- battery in
- volume down
- power down
But the phone starts directly without pressing any key. Directly when i insert the battery it starts to boot.
Windows looks like working but it shows "insert SIM" and reboots. Again and again.
Reaction to the lightsensor is there- but no keys are working...
I think the windows hangs- but until i'm not able to enter the bootloader its not possible to flash the phone...
in other forums is written about press vol UP button here is written about vol DOWN button... What is the correct?

[Q] Samsung Nexus s hard reset dont work

hi guys,
i just god nexus from a second hand store. i want to hard reset it but it does't.
it is stuck in the screen where the little green guy with the triangle with an exclamation mark next to it. please help.
is there a way to load the factory rom manually?
(i know how to jailbrake and downgrade an iphone so this should not be so hard)

Hold volume down and press on once you see menu with recovery
press volume again and you will see option for clear storage - thats what you want

that is what i have done already. but why is the mobile preventing me from hard reset ?

I have been hanging around the XDA forums (as well as every other forum I could think of) and have been unable to solve my re-set problem.
I got my Nexus S about a week ago and decided to unlock it. That went well, no problem. Then I decided to root using Superboot - that did not go well. Now my phone is unresponsive, just sits on the Google name with an unlocked padlock on a black screen. I can get into fastboot mode by using the volume up and power button if I do this right after replacing the battery. I cannot seem to go anywhere else. Once I got into a menu that would let me install from sd card, but none of the options would install. I followed the following directions to see if I could do a hard reset:
Hard reset Nexus S using hardware buttons
This option is recommended if you are unable to access the options via the Android OS.
1. Turn the phone off by pressing and holding the Power button for about 2 seconds, the tapping Power off. Alternately, you can pull the and replace the battery.
2. Press and hold the Volume Down button while pressing and releasing the Power button.
3. Continue to hold the Volume Down button until you see a menu appear.
4. Now tap the Volume Down button to scroll down to the Clear Storage option.
5. Press the Power button to select Clear storage.
6. Press Volume Up to select Yes.
After a few minutes the hard reset process will be completed and you can reboot your phone to factory default settings.
I never get to the clear storage option, although I have tried data/factory reset and wipe cache. I can get to the android with the triangle and exclamation point but that will just sit for ever, and removing the battery at that point and then rebooting does not work. It just takes me back to the Google and the unlocked padlock. FWIW - my phone updated right before I unlocked it. I don't think it is bricked, but I sure can't get passed the Google name or the Triangle/android.
Thanks for any help.

I've the same problem now - did you ever resolve yours?

Here is how
Power off by removing battery
Hold vol up not down and power,
release power and you get Fastboot mode
vol down to recovery and click power
You get the screen with Android + triangle
Click up and Power again for few seconds
you will get the 'Android Sys recovery'
However if you have my problem 'error in loading the built in SDcard memory this wont help.
The only way i managed to get it to work some times although not now, is to reboot the mobile while it is connected to a PC, and load the PC at the same time.
However this time i am stuck at Google screen

My One S never boots up and keep restarting automatically

My One S has worked fine until now. Now, however, it suddenly started to reboot nonstop. I get the first two starting screens, then it shuts down, and in a few seconds it starts again. The process continues until the battery is dead. I've tried to hold in the shutdown button for various amounts of time and it leads to the process halting, ie the mobile keeps being off. But once I release the button the process continues once again.
Any ideas?

This didn't work on my phone :S I tried hard reboot and factory reset, both doesn't work. :S
What else I can do, I'm so panicked at the moment, please help me.
I can't get to the menu screen, it just keeps reloading between htc one s and htc logo please help.

I was having this issue the other day. It took me a while to get it figured out and this thread helped me: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1630459
To get into bootloader was hit and miss for me. I found that the best and most consistent way was to hold down the power + down volume, let go of the power while holding down the down volume after 5 sec and then press the power again then let go of both buttons.

[Q] HTC ONE SV "Lock screen common control has stopped unexpectedly"

Guys, i have done everything i could to try to fix this problem. But my phone always has popups saying "Lock screen common control has stopped unexpectedly. Would you like to send HTC a report blah blah" I DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT'S CAUSING THIS. I even reset the phone. Also, when i press the lock button after the screen is off, there is no lock screen. It's like a plain wallpaper with the pull down notifs. So i have to pull down the notif, press settings and then click the BACK button just to get to the home screen. Along with this problem, when im in any app and i press HOME button, it's like my homescreen is always resetting. And then the pop-ups come back again. I really need your help guys. Hoping for your intelligent responses.
WHAT CAN I DO?

did you modify anything, root ? unlock etc ?
if not, you need to deep reset you phone from recovery mod.

No root. Now i cannot open my phone. The lock screen is absent, just wallpaper and notif bar. So icannot put my pattern password

Reset/format your phone using recovery mod.
if you cannot operate your phone, just put out the battery, & put it back in, start the phone.
Press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then press and hold the POWER button.
Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release the POWER and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
Press VOLUME DOWN to select FACTORY RESET, and then press the POWER button.

Now the problem is...
I did reset it. And when it turned on, everything stopped working. Like ALL APPS. Popups were flooding. "HTC sense has stopped working". So i cannot do anything, so what i did was I restarted the phone. And voila! IT IS STUCK ON A BOOTSCREEN LOOP. Bootloader's option now is to only REBOOT. But rebooting only makes my phone go into bootscreen loop.
NOW I CANNOT FACTORY RESET/CLEAR STORAGE/ETC. I can only REBOOT. So my phone is practically useless now.

[Q] screen in black after boot in gear 2

I do not know how it happened but the screen of my gear 2 just do not turn on after boot (just after the samsung logo). Only shows the screen to restart after pressing the button and if the bluetooth connected or not.
I tried
- Change the default from the app of gear in my S3.
- Restore a backup.
- Update the software, but there was an error Bluetooth Connection
- Reinstall the app on my phone, after that would not be anymore connecting the gear to bluetooth
- Hard reset
but still the same.
Have any idea how to fix this?
Thanks for the help.
(sorry for my bad English)

There is a recovery mode, I never used it, but give it a try. Long press the home button, keep it pressed until the device reboots. Then press at least three times the home button (while rebooting). You will see a text menu with a few options. Select recovery in the menu by pressing the home button a few times. When recovery is selected, long press the home button.
