Does the phone even turn on? If it does, press and hold the power button and volume down to boot the phone into the bootloader. You can then go into recovery mode and sideload a .zip of the OTA rom downloaded on your PC.

I was trying to root my phone using the guide over at androidforums and when I tried to go into recovery mode, I get a screen that says Downloading... Do not turn off Target!!!!
Please tell me I didn't brick my phone. What is this? Please help!
just hold Power, and both volume buttons for awhile.
You are in download mode. And no you did not brick your phone.

This is how you update your phone. Are you able to get the phone into recovery mode or is it just stuck in that screen? Turn off your phone and back on and see if it's stuck at the screen.
If it is stuck I am sure you would be able to update the firmware on it or return to the Captivate stock ROM.
You can use Odin3 to flash a new firmware if need be.

Thank you so much. I was terrified to even touch the phone. I am very new to Android as you can see. Thank you again.

I turned it off then back on and was able to get into recovery mode. Thanks for your help. I am not sure what I did to get to the downloading screen. Thanks again!

You get the download mode by holding down the volume down button and then powering on the phone. To get to the recover mode you need to hold down the volume down button then the volume up button then the power button.
Glad your phone is working! Flash on!

That doesn't do what it should do just turns it off then sends it back to recovery

Then you some how doing it wrong then because every person I said that too has said that it helped them get into the bootloader. As soon as it turns off let quickly let go off the power button but still keeping hold of Vol- and then press and hold the power button. And as added bonus flash TWRP recovery when you get into the bootloader then you wont have it booting into recovery like it's doing now.

All your way does as i stated on the other forum is it goes off a green line flashes across the screen, the charge light goes on and off a few times, green light flashes again and then it goes into clockwork recovery. even telling adb to reboot into bootloader does not work

Em not really most of it is copy and paste anyway but before doing that I think it be best you flash TWRP recovery so it should be easy to get into the bootloader again.

Can anyone help me fix my g2x? I've rooted it using superoneclick rooting and it worked fine. I wanted to update it to cm7 so I downloaded Rom manager for the cclockwork recovery 5.0.2.0 then I turned off my phone to go to clockwork recovery. Once I'm in the clockwork recovery I backed up my phone to my external sd. After that I cleared the cach and stuff and selected update and selected the update in my external ad with the cm7. Then I rebooted my g2x and it turned on at the lg screen then I waited a little longer and it just went to the a black screen and it just flashes the light in the screen on and off.
I tried the following:
- nvflash, i would follow the videos on YouTube but it wouldn't flash the rom on my phone.
- manual reset by holding the power button and (-) volume button and it would go to the android screen were the android would be extracting things and that's we're I supposed to let go so I let go and it would just do the same.. Go to the lg screen then to a black screen with the internal light on the screen flashing on and off.
- I tried holding the power button and (-) volume button and let go of the power button once its on and it would go to a update screen, so I left it for the whole day and the next day it would still be in the same update screen
Please Help!!!

I don't have a clue what to do or which to follow. Can you please tell which procedure I have to do first? I just want my phone to be factory reseted.
Just read the op and follow the steps. You need to flash cwm to be able to flash any roms. It's even numbered.

if your phone boots into a black screen its not hardbricked, hardbricked means it wont turn on at all and you have no indicators

Unplug your phone and hold volume up and power for 30
seconds. Do not have it plugged in while doing this.

You may need to uncheck usb debugging in developer options then reboot and go in and check usb debugging again then try adb tools using adb devices and see if it works then. Some m8's can be a real pain that way you just need to keep trying.

I would run the newest ruu that dottat has posted in the android development section for this phone, put it on your sd card using your computer, then put it back in your phone and boot to fastboot and let it pick it up and hit I believe it is yes and it will restore your phone. You are on 4.4.4 right ? If you are having problems getting to fastboot hold power and volume up until you see the lights change and or it vibrate then quickly switch to power and volume down and it should take you to fastboot, it may take you multiple tries to get it there. This sounds like the screen of death issues people have had on viperone which the fix for that so far has been to reverse the 4g handoff fix as most people that have the sod they had used the 4g handoff fix but if you cant get past the black screen then you cant do the fix for that. Have you tried leaving your phone sit for a while to see if it comes out of it ? Also most people only had that issue in weak signal areas so a good signal area could get your screen working again if you had done the 4g handoff fix. If you did some have said that the change can stick even through a ruu, but I cannot verify that either way.
Can I say I'm having an almost same problem.
I wiped my phone in prep of loading a new rom.
RUU the firmware for 4.4.4
Loaded twrp
and then it rebooted to the htc screen.
Now I can't get past that screen. I can hard reboot but it only comes back to that screen. and if I try to access it through the computer it can't load the driver so that I can sideload.
Help please

it's tricky to get it back to hboot... but you can with practice. Hold power a both volume buttons until you think it finally has rebooted. Switch to only holding vol down to enter hboot. Timing and practice makes perfect.
It took about an hour of trying. But I did it. Plus I had to do a few other things to get things remounted.

I will have to try this. What other things did you do?
Once I was back in recovery I reformatted before rebooting and then from recovery I installed the rom.

I agree with Dottat, faced the same issue when trying to flash ARHD 22.1 on my Verizon M8. I think I sprayed some **** in my pants with that loud fart .
After trying several times I got the trick and could get into Hboot. The issue I think was I was holding Power + Volume up & down for more than required time and it Rebooted. We need to Switch Off the device by Holding Power + Volume UP & Down button for about 8-10 secs and then just remove the finger from Volume UP button. It takes you to Hboot mode..
