Hi,
really need help...I was about to sold my old HTC Sensation XE, rooted and had viper 5.2.1 on it - deleted everything from SD card, but wanted to be sure nothing remained on my phone so I made factory reset (i think I shouldn't to this)..
Now when I turn phone On it loads HTC logo, then Viper logo and restarts and then again HTC, Viper restart...
When I hold power button + vol.down nothing happens (HTC->Viper and restart) + all the buttons are flashing...
Did I bricked my phone for good or is there a way how to reflash everything?
Thanks

U must be doing it wrong or ur volume button is dodgy. Ur phone being in a bootloop should not affect getting into bootloader once uv pulled the battery.
I'm sure it was working before (my girlfriend used it a never told me she is not available to lower the sound)
why are bottom buttons flashing while holding power + vol down?

I dunno, mine does that if im in a bootloop n i try a hard reset. Dont worry. The vol button mite work but she mite just need to give it an extra push, no harm in cleaning it coz the sensations r bad for dust getting in there. K pull the battery out for a min n put back in then press and hold vol down (hard) and press n hold power button. U should get to bootloader, keep trying till u do. As long as u pull the battery out u should get there at some point.
Sometimes I also have to pull the battery out twice to make it go into bootloader. Just make sure you have enough charge in the battery too.
no luck... tried it around 20 times and nothing... communication via fastboot is not working..
so I guess there is no other way how to enter recovery as vol down and power
?

i did that. it wasnt working, for some reason, it would take over 3 mins to boot the recovery, then it would freeze then reboot, i tried it on another PC, worked fine somehow..
EDIT: Solved, ADB worked after sitting in bootloop for 20 min

After seeing the cool button configuration for Alpha 4 on CM, I wanted to try and port that over to sense roms, as a first step I transferred the keylayout folder into a sense rom and booted up. The phone will only bootloop and holding the power button flashes the bottom LEDs and either turns off the phone or reboots. Button combos do not seem to let me get into recovery. When I connect it to the computer, I can't connect through adb. I'm really screwed here, any help?

You mean it doesn't boot into bootloader ? does the led's flash when you press and hold the power button ?
If the LED's flash 6 times and before the screen starts , hold down the voulme button ..( till you see something on the screen )
If I do that it just goes straight to a normal bootup, which then bootloops

Ok ... you will have to be persistent here ... make sure the LED's flash 6 times and when you realize it's starting up ... press the "volume down" button " 2-3 times and hold onto it ... no need to hold the power button ...
Did that exactly, and have been doing that for a while, and nothing

Hi there,
Kindly help... I successfully installed B512 on my TL10 using force upgrade method, afterwhich I changed recovery to TWRP 3.0.2 using mobopx v2.2, which was also successful. And then I installed SuperSU 2.46 via TWRP, then cleared cache/dalvik. But upon rebooting system, I get a blank screen, even after waiting for more than 15 minutes.
And so I tried going to TWRP (Vol+ and power), which was successful, in order to boot to bootloader, with the intention of loading back the stock bootloader via adb, so that I can force install B512 from my microSD card again. It seemed to install fine...
However, at this point, I cannot reboot to bootloader (Vol- and power) anymore, I only get blank screen. Trying recovery (Vol+ and power) doesn't work either. Rebooting normally gives me the same. I cannot by any means connect via adb now.
Is there any way to unbrick my phone at this point?
Thanks so much. Cheers.
Works entrance for the recovery (Vol+ and Vol- and Power)?

What happens when you do a Vol up + power?

The phone "doesn't want to turn off" bro. It has fully discharged, but as soon as I plug the charger in, it immediately powers up. When it does, now it shows the Huawei logo. But it's stuck there, and if I press the power button for a few secs, it will power down, but immediately power up again...

Let it get fully charged first. Then remove the charger and keep the Vol up and power button pressed for ~10 secs or more, and see where it takes you.

Done bro. Although I must say, I'm kinda back like yesterday when the phone is just helplessly discharging until it drops dead. Pressing vol+ and power restarts the phone, but I'm still stuck at the logo...

You seem to be in a sticky situation bro. Your recovery seems to be broken because in stock recovery Vol up + power should ideally take you to recovery and not restart. If you could somehow boot into fastboot mode then it could open up some options to bring your phone to life.
With no way to connect to the phone the only options left are the hardware buttons. I am sure you'd have tried them already, but just in case you have not, try the other 2 key combinations also, Vol down + power and Vol up + Volume down + power, for ~10 secs, to check if any of these either forces a factory reset or boots the phone into fastboot mode.

Thanks bro, but that's what I did, or at least was planning to do. After rooting B512 via TWRP, the phone got stuck at the logo.

Thank you for this suggestion brother. I tried exactly as you described, however, the phone looks badly discharged, and while the screen was blinking/showing the red battery icon, it doesn't seem to want to charge. I waited around 5 minutes, but nothing seems to progress from here.
And so now, I moved the USB cable to a proper charger, and now it seems to be charging, with the LED light a steady red, and the screen the normal red circle with "0%" inside. It seems to be charging at the moment, although I really have to wait until it shows "1%" until I can surely say so.
One thing that's different now is that the phone hasn't turned on (by itself) yet. And at least this looks promising.
I'll let you know what happens in a while... Thank you!

I have a problem with my Nexus 5, it bootloop on the Google Logo
I try to put a little piece of paper behind the power button and also to click on the power button a lot of times during the boot but it still stuck..
What can I do to try fix it ?
Thanks in advance
is this the kind of bootloop where it loops because of a stuck power button or is it a software based bootloop?

that happened to my old ativ s as well, it was due to a broken power button (electrically stuck, not mechanically) the only solution for me was to solder a new power button on it. But I just used it as an excuse to get a new phone.

if you install gravitybox and xposed there should be an option to turn on the screen with the volume buttons (I'm not sure though, it might have been another module) so you could use that as a temporary solution.

with phone turned off, (you can remove the battery and re plug it), hold the volume down button and connect it to the wall charger(do not use PC,it will trigger lg download mode), then you will be able to go to fastboot.
Once there you can:
fastboot reboot to boot to normal OS
fastboot boot twrp so you can install a rom or any other mod

I need help with this issue
when this problem reached me it was a meter of replacing the power button itself (it's like stuck there) by the way my phone was still under warranty so they changed it for me

Hi all,
My Nexus 5was running stock Android M till last week and I wanted Android N. So I rooted my phone installed TWRp and loaded android N by @santhosh. Everything went well but at times some apps kept crashing including TWRP. So I decided to to do a clean wipe. I did a clean wipe from recovery but after that my phone is not booting up. It's stuck on bootloop.
I am not able to boot into recovery mode also is there any way to save my phone?
Pardon my English.
Are you able to access the bootloader (hold power button + vol down until the phone boots)
I suggest using NRT to flash a stock ROM.

No i can't. It will go to bootloader When I press volume down + power but only for a second or so.. After that it'll bootloop.

Sounds like a dead power button?
Not sure, never had this problem.
But that is a common issue
The fact that the phone is not detected by the phone makes it difficult to re-flash a stock ROM.
If it is a power button issue, I recommend removing the motherboard, cleaning around the power button with pure isopropyl alcohol., quickly press and release the power button using a bit more pressure that usual, replace the motherboard, and try again.
