has this problem already came up if so I missed it a link would be nice to fix my phone Thanks

I could be misunderstanding your problem here but I think i had a similar issue... first of all make sure you're holding down the power button long enough to boot up. Seems to take 4 or 5 seconds with this phone.
Also when I had the issue i took out the bat, put it back, plugged into a wall charger and then held the power button that worked. But I think really my issue was impatience not holding the power button the first time long enough.

no i am the screen wont say updating or whatever when i hold the up and down button but it looks for a driver ?? and installs the Right driver

helpppppppppp your way to the search button.

Thread moved to proper forum.

You only hold volume down and power. I had the same issue. Holding both volumes will cause the phone to not boot.

So you flashed the recovery before you rooted. Try reflashing the original recovery. I don't know if that will work. You should have rooted then flashed recovery.

thats what im doing now but gewt stuck at waiting for bootloader to int for some reason

Well your g2x will never go out of the updating screen you have to wait until one click says it has transfered the file. Wait a minute or so after that and unplug the USB and put your battery back in the I would do a master rest.

thing is my lg screen is black can i still root with a black screen ? like i said only action i get out of the g2x is if i hold the vol up And Down and plug it in then i hear the sound of the computer finding it witch gives me hope

I would try recovering recovery befor trying to root again. I would do the nvflash but pick the original recovery instead of cm. Then after that master reset by original recovery which is hold power and down volume. Recovery will rest your rom. Rooting puts you root permissions I believe into a different partition any ways that's how a master reset does not wipe them. Your problem sounds like more of a recovery issue then root.

It is problem is it stays at Waiting for Bootloader int how long should that be there?

are you holding the volume buttons down and plunging in the usb before you select the version? you have to continue holding them the whole time. should pick it up in matter of seconds.

My phones screen won't wake.

My phones screen seems to shut off and not wake up. I can tell the phone is on though because the buttons light up. And if I press and hold the back button the flashlight turns on. Also the volume rockers seemed to work but the screen stays off. Occasionally it seems to turn back on but but it'll just go back off again. Rebooting the phone doesn't working and I've also installed two different ROMs on it. Any advice on how to solve this?

Relock bootloader with fastboot oem lock cmd and download and run the ruu according to your phone version and see if the problem persists. If you don't know how to get into fast boot hold power and volume down until buttons stop flashing and keep holding volume down till you get See the screen with skating HTC men. Or if you have a backup in recovery you can restore from recovery and see if that helps your problem.

I was hoping I wasn't going to have to do that but I will if its my only option.

Kernel mods will do that also.

Do you have backups in recovery, and like before you flashed roms? (stock rooted)

Haven't messed with any kernels. I was running the latest CM10 nightly when it happened. Figured it was the rom so I switched to the stable version but problems still happened.

No. No backups unfortunately.

My other suggestions would be to make sure you don't have a corrupt zip. Downloading from chrome or from you phone I've had issues. Ei8 or ie9 works well for me. Hope you get it figured out.

That was happening to my phone. I found that if i applied pressure to opposite corners at the same time, the screen would come back. If i let go, the screen would return to black. Everything worked when I touched the screen, volume rockers, etc. I took it into AT&T and they gave me a new one under warranty. I was running CleanRom 5.1 at the time. I honestly do not believe my problem was caused by over flashing or any type of hacking. SO, try to flex or contort the phone in different directions and see if you can cause it to turn on and off.

I ended up having to use RUU. The problem seems to be fixed. Still don't know what caused it but at least it wasn't a hardware issue.

A thanks would be nice

I appreciate you taking the time to help. And anyone for that matter but unfortunately the problem is still there. Might have to return it. Hopefully I won't get any issues from ATT for being rooted.

HELP!!! T300 Locked: Requires Google Sign In

Need help guys.
Don't know what happened, but after the kid's Tf300 booted, it's at the google sign in. But the tablet does not have wifi so there's no way to sign in.
So it's been stucked like that for days now. And since we can't sign in, we couldn't turn on wifi. I don't care if we have to factory reset or wipe the system as long as I can get it to work again.
Thanks much for your help.

I've never had the problem but using google search string - android phone locked google account no wifi - gets many hits.
This one looks promising.
Good Luck!
Maybe some with experience on this tablet will respond.

Press and hold the power button at the same time as the volume button.
It will reset the device into recovery mode.
Read the text that shows up, it will tell you to use the volume down button to select the option you wish to choose which is to restore to default (last option on the right), press volume up to select it.
It will wipe your device to factory settings (basically like when you took it out of its box on the first day).

Do not use Wipe Data unless you have stock recovery.
If you have twrp or cwm you will probably brick your tablet!

Thanks guys. I've been trying the Power+Volume Up combo to try to get into recovery but it's not working. Maybe I am not doing it right. The tablet is still on factory ROM. Not rooted nor unlocked.

Power and volume down to get into the bootloader. This is the one you want.
Power and volume up to get into apx mode.

Thanks. I will try that.
fYI. The tablet is still on factory ROM though.

Do you know what firmware version is your tablet currently on?
i have a safe way to factory reset it but i need to know the firmware version to make it's safe for you to try

Care to tell us exactly what you're doing? For me, the easiest method is to power down, then hold the volume up button and press + hold power (holding volume up while powering down works as well for me-- yes, I still lift and press the power button again to reboot.).

You should shutdown your tablet.
Then you hold down the power button AND the volume-down button.
After the screen turns on you can choice wipe data by volume-down and confirm your choice with volume-up.
Now your tablet should run with the factory settings. At your first start you choice your country and your wifi, so your problem should be solved

Bricked Phone?

I went out partying last night, woke up to a crack on my nexus 5 and wouldnt turn on but the led would flash red. I figured it lost its charge. Charge the phone for few hours, phone would turn on and off right away as if it still were not charged. It would than shut off but restart to a screen that said Firmware Update- Please wait while it installs- B100. Nothing would install, it would stay at 0%. So I held the power button and now, it only turns on to the google sign and keeps looping from there. I tried to turn it on in recovery mode but that doesnt work either. My phone was never rooted, bootloader never unlocked and I never put it in debugging. I dont know what to do!

so the ol' 3-button combo doesn't get you to the bootloader?

Yes, it does. Forgot to mention that.

I don't know what you did, but your phone is not bricked. Hope you have a recent backup. If you can get into the bootloader I'd try a factory reset in recovery. If that doesn't work then you're going to have to unlock the bootloader and try to flash the factory image. None of this may work as idk what you did to your phone, but this is what I'd do.

Is flashing a factory image/unlocking bootloader possible even tho I can't get into the settings menu to turn on debugging option?

Alright, here. The catch-all solution: flash the factory image as in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2513701.
Just remember to cd to your adb directory, I made that mistake and almost fainted because I thought my device was totally broken when fastboot devices listed nothing.

I was able to flash everything and it seemed successful. But, I can only get as far as GOOGLE and than it keeps rebooting.

If that's the case it sounds like you may have knocked something loose internally when whatever happened that caused the damage to your screen. Possibly a solder point or a cable coming loose.

Opened up the back cover, looks like condensation.....ill leave it alone for a few days and try again.

Did u do another factory reset after last flash as this may need doing on some phones from what I've watched on good old YouTube...Good luck..

^Why would he factory reset when the phone is wet? You'll short circuit it that way..

The only method of a factory reset I've read about was turning on in Recovery, waiting for the little android, and holding Vol + and Power. Thing is my phone would never get to the little android, just loop on the GOOGLE introduction. Is there another method to factory reset?

Turn your phone off. Then hold power + vol down. It should boot into the boot loader. You'll see a "start" Then use the vol rocker to toggle to recovery. Once there push the power button. You should be in recovery. Then use the vol rocker to toggle to factory reset. Then use power to select it.

Thats the method I'm unable to use...I was hoping there might be a string of code I could type into a command prompt being that I can only turn on the phone into the boot loader.

Try
fastboot reboot recovery
Edit, sorry that's not going to work. Find the stock recovery image. Then try
fastboot boot recovery.img

So I was able to boot in recovery and factory reset, although the problem still persists. I will try and flash all images tomorrow. Thanks for all the help! Happy holidays!

Try to factory reset the phone. Instructions from official htc site:
Performing a factory reset using hardware buttons
If you can’t turn HTC One S on or access settings, you can still perform a factory reset by using the hardware buttons on HTC One S.
Important: The Fast boot option in Settings > Power must not be selected.
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.
