Okay so earlier today i rooted my phone, i unlocked the bootloader and installed SuperSU, also used Win-Team recovery.img, and everything was fine, i wanted to see what else i could do now that i had root, so i came across something called ROM's, i searched for a ROM that would go with my phone and downloaded it on my pc, i moved the zip file onto my sd/memory on my phone, then opened win-team on my phone, and flashed the ROM zip, (stupidly i didn't know i had to back up the original ROM) So now whenever i turn on my phone i get stuck at the "Quietly Brilliant", and it vibrates numerous times, and when i hold my volume button and the power button to get into the menu, i cant enter factory reset, or the recovery, so its basically unusable. Please help me i have a lot of important stuff on my phone and i really don't want to lose it! thank you

In December of last year, I had my friend root and install CyanogenMod onto my Mytouch 3G Slide. Everything was working fine until I wanted to update my ROM and tried to boot my phone into recovery mode to make a NANDroid backup. A screen with a picture of a phone and a red exclamation point inside a triangle would appear, and I'd have to pull the battery out to restart the phone.
Then, I tried to access the bootloader by holding the volume down and power buttons. After some loading, it asked me if I wanted to update. Not knowing what it was asking, I said no, and tried to access the actual recovery menu, but the same screen showed up.
I tried again, this time accepting the update. Now, when my phone boots, the stock mytouch splash screen appears and the phone does nothing from there.
At this point, what would be the best solution? Is my phone just bricked, or is there a way to restore it to the stock firmware/recover CyanogenMod?
EDIT: For clarification, I can still access the bootloader, where I have four options: Fastboot, Recovery (See problem above), Clear Storage, and Simlock.
EDIT 2: I left it on the splash screen and discovered that it seems to have just thrown my phone into a stock factory state, running 2.1-update 1. Not sure if it's still rooted.
I have a nexus s i9023, it was running well with 2.3.4 for three months. Got an OTA update for 2.3.6 two days ago, installed it.Im running stock, and the root is locked.
Everything seemed to be running fine on 2.3.6 when last night it just stopped responding and freezing. Taking battery out doesnt help, it again freezes at the colorful x logo or at the unlock screen.
I read on how to do a reset, but pressing volume down and power button gives me only a flash of blacklight (for a millisecond) and then nothing happens. tried it many times. What am I doing wrong?
Pressing volume up and power button gives me a fastboot menu, and recovery mode only gives me an exclamation mark android, then I have to take battery out again. I cannot mount the sd card or do anything else.
Any help or solution is most appreciated guys. Salute.
When you get to recovery, press again power+volume up (i think so), and you'll get some options. You can make factory reset there (as i can remember).
Also, there are many guides here on how to root and flash custom recovery via fastboot.
Check this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007782
Just follow it, and when you flash custom recovery, you will be able to mount SD card, flash any ROM etc...
Good luck ...
i have the exacly same problem and i already try full wipe, install other ROM like oxygen and i cant pass the main logo... it's frozing all the time and i need pick up the battery to turn it off... :S
someone can help?
Hi,
I will prefix this (as there are a few people around with this problem who can get into recovery mode) with the fact that holding down Vol- on boot is not getting me to the recovery / bootloader screen.
I have a rooted HTC Desire S (rooted it nearly a year ago, so info about the hboot etc is a distant memory).
Anyhoo, I decided to have a play about with one of the ICS roms but it was a bit buggy and the camera drivers still aren't working for video so I decided to go back to Endymion V3.4 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1310845
I did a full wipe, installed base rom, installed optional addons and then upgraded to 3.4 - booted fine into the OS so set about getting my system set up the way I like it.
I noticed that endy came with a theme installer so clicked on one of them to have a look, it asked for root, said it was installed and would need to reboot to take effect...
SO
the problem is, it now won't boot and is stuck on the white HTC boot screen.
Holding vol+/- and power buttons reset it but it just ends up back hanging on the boot screen.
Have tried pulling battery and trying again.
Holding Volume Down when powering up is no longer doing anything
So, I either need a saviour to point me in the direction of a fix.. or a kindly sould to break it to me gently when they tell me my phone has gone to the USB Dock in the sky..
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
update:
After pulling battery again, pulling out sim and sd cards, booting with vol- held down, i got into recovery. Am going to try and flash a different rom after doing a full wipe, I'll update once it's done but any insights in the meanwhile will still be appreciated
Sorted, cleared the thing out, stuck reaper CM rom on it, rebooted and everything is peachy for now.
Thanks me
Curious if anyone knows why this might have happened?
because you didnt flash the addon zip which was released alongside endymon and then tried to use the addons,it does say on the screen do not use these unless you have installed the addons
Hi All,
I installed the AT&T RUU_Evita_UL_Cingular_US-1.82.502 and the phone was working perfectly, then I tried to replace the two files for the Advanced Power Menu mod into the Framework folder as the install directions say. After the reboot, the phone gets stuck on the white HTC ONE TM screen. I then rebooted into the recovery screen by pressing the power and Vol down key and did a factory reset and I still get stuck on the same screen after the reboot. Any way I can reinstall the AT&T RUU_Evita_UL_Cingular_US-1.82.502 or get out of this Bootloop? Thanks in advance
download the ruu and htc sync and ...reflash
How do I do this, HTC Sync does not pick up the phone and since I do not have CWM how to I flash the RUU from this state. I saw that you previously said to another member about ARUWIzard, will this work for me?
since you are on att therefore you dont need that.
download the ruu from this post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1644338
and run it with htc sync installed.
Got it to reflash the RUU. Thanks for your help.
Hi and please help as right now I dont even have a backup phone.
I tried to install android on my phone by following the procedure from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566955
I copied RHODIMG.NBH and CM7****.zip in the root of the SD card and restarted my phone with vol -, went into bootloader and installed successfully, since then my phone starts with official HTC screen and then goes black. I tried installing it again couple of times and it ended successfully but still no progress but something happened.
Current Status of the phone.
1. I can get in bootloader with vol- key but it keeps saying no image found where as I have tried putting different RHODIMG.NBH of different ROMs, even stock rom too but it just not read it.
2. Phone starts, shows HTC logo and then black screen.
3. I was running a custom ROM before with Hard-SPL bootloader, so its not stock SPL.
Please help, I would greatly appreciate....
