[Completed] htc one m8 think i soft bricked - XDA Assist

i wanted to update from cm 11 to cm13 and in order to do this i thought it might be a good idea to update my twrp. so i installed the twrp update app, dl the update and attempted booting to recovery. it gave me the htc boot screen and said at the top "entering recovery", but it never did. after about 5 min of waiting i shut phone off and attempted to enter recovery manually. did now work. now when i turn phone on it refuses to leave the htc boot screen and if i enter bootloader i can enter hboot or fastboot and turn off but nothing else. i tried to flash twrp from fastboot but phone is not connecting to pc via usb. phone is in fastboot mode, i plug it in, nothing. adb and fastboot is setup on my pc from when i rooted a while back. any suggestions on what to do? btw i dont think debugging is turned on but not sure. didnt know this was going to end up being a giant debacle. usually updates have gone pretty smoothly.

[Completed] [Q] URGENT.. Help me unbrick my HTC ONE X

Please help , ITS VERY URGENT...
My HTC ONE X is rooted unlocked and S-OFF
I was about to install ARHD latest ROM. I went to flash boot.img first.
The moment I clicked on "install-boot-windows.bat" in FASTBOOT USB mode, everything just froze.
No button works. My computer gives a message of " USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNISED" .
When I try to give any command from Fastboot or ALL IN ONE TOOL KIT, IT SAYS " waiting for device" .
My phone is stuck at FASTBOOT USB screen.

[Completed] vodafone smart tab 3g is bricked

I tried to flash different custom recoveries on a Vodafone Smart Tab 3G, but none of them seemed to work. Now the tablet does not boot in any boot mode. When I try to enter recovery mode, the device restarts after a few seconds, when I try fastboot, on the screen appears FASTBOOT mode... and it get stuck there, and when I try normal boot, the screen goes black, but it is still powered on, and it remains so until you turn it off. I tried also to connect to my tablet trough adb and fastboot, but no device is listed in the console. I have also installed the usb drivers and adb universal drivers, so my device should be listed in the console. However, when I try to enter fastboot, a new device appears in Device Manager as Android. I ask you if I could unbrick my tablet (flash a new recovery, then a new rom), or if it is dead forever.

[Completed] ADB - Device Unauthorized

So today I installed a zip file on my LG G4 . After installing it I tried to boot the phone from TWRP, but it got stuck in bootloop. When I try to enter the recovery by pressing volume down and power button nothing happens. Sometimes the phone vibrates or the boot animation slows down for a second but then it goes back to the animation. If I try to use the ADB to boot into recovery (or to do anything) it gives me a device unauthorized message. This is probably due to the fact that I recently reinstalled Windows and haven't connected my phone to my PC to confirm USB debugging. So all in all I am locked out of my device without being able to do anything. I am asking for help to solve this problem since I can't figure it out.

[Completed] Softbricked Fairphone FPU1, can't flash rom

Since i wanted to use the latest apps, I followed this guide to get Android 4.4.4. a couple of months ago.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/fairphone/orig-development/rom-fairphone-fp1-kitkat-4-4-2-t3243623
Everything was working fine untill 2 weeks ago i got an error saying 'launcher3 stopped working' again and again.
When i tried to downgrade to the stockrom again my phone hardbricked.
I then followed these steps to restore it to Cherry 1.6. (Restoring with flashtool)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Fairphone_Fairphone/Guides#How_to_restore_Fairphone_if_you_totally_bricked_it
This worked. I got the welcome to Fairphone animation etc.
Next i updated to Kola 1.8. and it softbricked...
Now when i try to go in recovery mode, i first get three options: Recovery mode, Fastboot mode or Normal boot.
Whatever i try it just won't boot, the screen lights up slightly indicating a functioning battery etc but that is it
When i go into fastboot mode and try to flash (fastboot flash boot [kola 1.8.zip]) i get a write error. This made me think that maybe i don't have root acces?
I tried sideloading with adb. It says installation complete but still no boot.
Any ideas or should i start saving for FP2?
