Basically, I screwed up my password on my phone to the point that I had one more chance before it did a factory reset and deleted everything. I tried using that last chance by resetting it on google play and it was a big mistake. It deleted everything anyway. I've been working on this for 2 days and tried tons of different 3rd party tools to no avail (huge waste of time). I don't know what else to do and since I just got the phone in May, I am afraid to root it, not to mention I am not familiar with the process. Wondering if I just have to take the losses and give up or wait until better apps come out. Any advice would be much appreciated (besides the fact that I should have backed up in the first place, believe me I have learned my lesson.)

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
I am from the camp that believes once it's gone, it's gone. Main reason, why would Android make a factory reset recoverable? That is asking for lawsuits over sensitive data brought back after phones stolen, et cetera.
Although, there may be some method, somewhere...
At any rate, I am connecting this thread to the forum your device experts can be found:

I have the T-Mobile Sensation 4G and I shattered my screen. I got a new one and I have to send the old one back. But I want to get all info and everything off of my phone. Can anyone tell me how to do so PLEASE. Oh and there is a lock on it. It is a "W" pattern but I can't see the dots to connect them. My phone comes on but all I see is different colored lights. The second question is there anyone I can pay to root my phone with the best stuff? I have tried but I REALLY suck at it. I don't know why but I just can't seem to understand any of it. I hope I didn't post this in the wrong room. Thank you all in advance for your help and sorry for the bother.

What I suggest you regards your personal information is just too keep the microSD card, nothing else you can do since your contacts are "stored" in your google account, but you could perform an hard reset of the device:
http://www.knowyourcell.com/htc/htc...8/how_to_hard_reset_the_htc_sensation_4g.html
About how to root your phone, you could ask to someone you know, which have done it before.
To be honest all the guides here on XDA are very simple and they normally shows you step by step how to do it, also to help people who are new to this.
Hi everyone,
I would like to clear out some points before posting my issue.
1-I have been reading hard brick threads on this device in this forum for 3 days, I am posting my question because I want to get clear answers on what my options are at this point. I have not seen not even 1 solution via Jig, which seems to be the easiest method.
2- The reason I bricked my phone is [most likely] I flashed a kernel that was intended for the N7000 model, although this might not make sense to some of you , for the sake of getting proper help, please hold back on comments that point out how much of a non skilled fan I am and how could I have got caught on such an obvious mistake. Comments like the ones I am describing just wont help so please you might as well keep them to yourselves.
3- Please do not take me as a pedantic person, I just happened to have read enough answers to know that there are highly skilled people who want to help others while some others just love to spend their free time spamming threads. I certainly do not have enough knowledge and skills to perform the jtag method since I cant even solder.
I was trying the JellyBeer rom and I flashed their kernel on TeamWin Recovery, what I do not understand is why did it brick, because I actually realized my mistake soon enough and I performed a restore to my previous rom/kernel, to my understanding, this brick should not have happened in the first place. But when I went ahead and rebooted the phone, it just turned off in the middle of rebooting never to turn on again. Its dead, it wouldnt even charge nor go into download mode or recovery, no vibration no nothing...
Returning the phone to the store is not an option for me as I brought this phone from the states to my country (Dominican Republic ) and is out of warranty.
To me it almost means that I dont have no choice but to keep using my sisters pink motorola that btw is like 10 yrs old until I can wait till some day to have that kind of money again and get a new one. I am leaving the final answer to the experts in this forum.
..If you actually read the whole thing I must thank you, because I know its waaay to long. Counting on you guys.

Hello, a week ago I was trying to restore my phone back to the stock rom, it is a Samsung Galaxy i727, and now is dead or HardBrick, I´m from Dominican Republic, searching in the internet I found a local Mobile Repair Center offering the Jtag service in just 24 hour my phone is back, their name is ALUMUN, if you are in Dominican Republic they are the best, you can find them in google as ALUMUN
I agree with you, we need help not lip service. I too bricked my phone, the site I got my roms added the galaxy 2 rom to the site not thinking it would be a bad thing to add it since they added it to the group of roms I could download for my phone, well that was the wrong thing to do!! I don't live in the Dominican Republic so I need to fix this myself.....HELP PLEASE!! Thanks guys

Oh and please dont mind if i posted on the wrong thread i am extemely new to the forums sort of gig (this is actually my first account lol) i heard from a friend about this site and well here i am.
So herer goes'
A few months ago i searched for the easiest method to root my phone as i read thay rootimg lets you customize your phone as much as ya want. I downloaded kingo root which does it for you.
Ive a samsung galaxy s2 plus right.
After i rooted the customizations bit hard for me but i managed t download lucky patcher, and through it i downloaded the modded play store(no idea what it did back then) i did alot of inapp exploiting for most paid apps. anyways
a few days ago i came across xposed ajd downloaded random modules like snapreps etc (i tool a giant leap of faith when i read about the soft mod bit). Anyways then when thats done i downloaded a few games(tday actually). i downloaded miniclips' 8ball ppol and i decided t sign in using Google +, it got an error saying it needs t update g+ i mistakenly pressed it. AND BANG MY PHONE SHUT DOWN, and it started booting t the samsung logo and then back, was this the way infamous softbrick,brick or a bootloop. Now im scared t even download an app from playstore, or even use google+ since in afraid itll do thay again.
-It came back t normal in a few minutes( i had t do the softreset(with the buttons, although pressing the keys didnt open anything, just thw samaung logo…and then i tool out the battery and restarted it a few times yet it stillt work. later it tried it onemore time and it turned on. qhat should i do? what actually happened? i have no idea and im scared t death cause i csnt change this phone for a few months and i need this for my gces( use it for eBooks sometimes) plwase help.
Again i donot jnow if this is the right threat im very new to this.
Thankyou in advance
Hi there,
Best answers you will receive in the dedicated forum for this device, see bellow because I don't find any relevant discussion:

Samsung Galaxy S2 Help and Troubleshooting
Good luck
Hey.now I have issue with downloading the paid upgrade to anysong (again). I had the full version for quite some time and lived it.but since then had to restore my Samsung S3, after my kids put On something which made the bigger mb users like camera and malificent down fall made my phone restart
. Now seeing as I had to restore just the handset,I couldn't remember any passwords so now I cannot get the upgrade, all I get now is a black screen. I hope you can help me out because I've lost faith in the makers, who have chosen to ignore my plea for help. I have just assumed that they've made there millions and now are enjoying retirement. So again I ask for your help and maybe point me in some direction so thanks in advance, and thank you for your time.
Cheers from NZ.
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. I'm afraid I can't find any thing on an app called anysong on XDA.
I recommend you reach out to the app developer/provider directly.
They usually provide and email for direct contact.
I haven't rooted my device. Been trying to find an answer, but the ####6020## thing does not work. Also, I don't have a PC, so I can't flash stuff or connect my tablet to additional software. I've tried installing the update straight away and a couple of times after factory resetting the tablet. Lenovo's service desk doesn't tell me anything and I am reluctant to call them at 1 euro per minute...
Anyone with the same problems, and, preferably, a solution?
I love this tablet, frankly, but the manufacturer, not so much.
