[Completed] [Q] I think im soft bricked? HTC Inspire 4g/DHD

I bought a used HTC Inspire 4g/DHD and it had already been flashed with "Jellytime." Thats all I really know. I know the basics of flashing and such. But here is the problem. Everything seemed in order, so i gave the phone to a friend to use, and then it started having a ton of issues. Video would go all wonky in landscape mode, phone would lock up, become unresponsive etc. So i attempted a factory restore via the boot menu and clockworkmod. Everything seemed to be going all good, then suddenly it gave me 2 errors saying it could not find and could not mount recovery files.
I thought, okay, weird, and let the phone finish doing what it is doing and restarted. It took probably 5-6 minutes after the restart and i finally got to the first screen to setup android (select language) and got a slew of pop up error messages saying XXX app has crashed or is not responding or that files were missing. and would not let me progress past that first screen. Now the phone will not even boot past the "jellytime" logo. (HTC logo flashes first, then jellytime animation and just stays there).
So i am at a loss as to what to do next because i cant get into android to enable USB debugging to use whatever process to reflash a suitable ROM. My friend really needs a phone back so a prompt response would be appreciated.

Maybe you have to re-flash the whole ROM. Startig freshly (with a factory reset / wipe data) is recommended.
And don't give the device to this friend again
If you have further questions, please ask in the Inspire 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.
Good luck !

I posted over in the other forum. But my issue is that I cannot do the factory restore and data wipe. It will not complete. It give me a missing recovery file error. And it can't mount the missing recovery files. It is why I am so stuck.

As I can see, you have already posted your question in the Q&A forum ([Q] soft bricked or screwed?).
So now you have to be patient and wait for someone to answer there.
Thanks for your understanding. Thread closed.

[Q] Android 5.0 Lollipop on HTC Sensation Brick often

I installed Android "L" on my HTC Sensation. It works very fine, But Sometime some system apps like Youtube, Music, etc stop working and I get notifications constantly until I disable it. Worst thing is that my Phone run into Boot-loop after some days. Formatting "Cache and Dalvik" and Do not resolve Problem. Only fix that works is Flashing Boot.img using Fastboot method. But it reset my phone Completely. I tried to Backup and Restore again but Bootloop again. Is there any way that My data remains there and Boot-Loop Fixed. I'm Fedup with it. I have to use PC and Lose all data to run my phone again. Is there any Other Rom that have Android 5.0 other than CM12?

[Completed] [Q] SM-T700 (klimtwifi) bootloop, bricked?

Hi. I successfully flashed blisspop rom to my SM-T700 tablet after flashing the stock rooted os. It pretty much worked perfectly. The problem here is that I never reset my dalvik cache and I'm not sure if blisspop does automatically for me or not, so I'm suspecting this is the problem. Anyway, I decided to reset to factory defaults to get space back on my internal sd card. I reset, and my tablet starts to boot into TWRP recovery, but I then experienced what people are always talking about-- bootloop. Now, I was going to reboot into recovery again, maybe it was a one-time glitch. But of course, my recovery goes away EVERY TIME I REBOOT, so now I'm stuck with the default recovery, which gets me nowhere. I try to do a normal boot, and surprise! IT DOESN'T START. So I get android studio and try to see if I can connect with my tablet through the built in adb console. I can't because apparently I need to accept the computer or something, but I can't, because the darn thing won't start up!! So there's my problem. I've tried adb, flashing stock rom, even attempting to corrupt it by pulling the battery when its starting so I can somehow reset it. No luck. Please help!

Hi, boot into download mode and flash the stock firmware. See your previous post here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/xda-assist/smt700-issues-os-t3079490 Also, see this is if you have further questions, http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s This is your device's forum and is the place you should be asking for help.

[Completed] [Q] HTC One m7 Blue screen! Help Please!!!

I'm new a this so I try to follow steps very carefully, and I did, I successfully rooted my phone. But then after about 4 hours I wanted to get xposed installer, so i downloaded the app and the zip so I can flash it, and when I tried to flash the zip, it said that everything went ok, no errors or anything. So then I rebooted my phone and it booted until it showed the HTC One screen and froze. So then i went into recovery and wiped the dalvik cache, cache partition, and then i did a factory reset. Then I rebooted and after the first HTC screen it goes to a blue-ish black-ish screen and does nothing. I can still boot into recovery, but don't know where to go from here.
Please help asap, and hope to hear from someone soon.
Btw i have a at&t HTC One m7 32g, and have CWM as recovery, I'm new at this so tell me how to fix it simply.

[Completed] Galaxy trend s7560m stock recovery not wiping data after wipe process completed

Hi guys
Im having a very weird issue with my galaxy trend, i want to do a factory reset because the device keeps restarting, it boots normallly but it restarts every time after 2 minutes. So i boot into recovery and perform a wipe data/ factory reset (the device is on stock recovery and firmware) as usual and it completes without any errors but when it boots nothing is erased, even the screen lock pattern, wallpaper, apps, everything is there. If i repeat the process i get the same results every time, by the way, i cant factory reset from the backup and reset option on andoid, it gets stuck on the erase everything button and pressing it does nothing.
Do anyone know why this could be happening?
Im downloading the stock firmware and flashing it through odin to see if that works, any help would be very much appreciated

I'll try posting there, anyway i don't have any hope left in the device, tried flashing stock rom via odin and it still doesn't do anything.
Doing some research on google it seems to be a hardware problem on the flash memory and only solution is replacing the mainboard
What i don't understand is why it doesn't give me any error when doing the factory reset when in reality the phone has not deleted anithing. I got a similar issue with a galaxy s4 that refused to write anything to it pretty much exactly as this device and gave up on it.
