HELP!!! yes , its that bad and frustrating for me. THIS IS HTC Incredible .
What happened?
I installed the latest CM7#218, and the phone never was able to restart. It was giving the '3-5 vibrates' symptom. After managing to get into recovery mode, i couldnt see anything from SD card. I later erased and reformatted the sd card but to no use.
In detail:
1. Installed CM7#218.
2. phone restart gives 3-5 vibrate symptom, cant even get into recovery mode.
3. tried factory reset , sd card reformat,repair from windows but doesnt help.
4. only when i unplug the device, power on or when i click on recovery mode, and while on the HTC splash screen, if I connect charger, ONLY then i can get into recovery mode or start the base CM7 OS.
5. in recovery mode i cannot see card , tried all possible mounts/unmounts. thus unable to restore any backups
6 when the base OS boots, (using point#4 above), i still cannot see sd card, nor able to format from phone. in file manager i can see my internal storage. But the phone does not give me any usb mount option , so cannot even view the internal memory from windows.
7. referred to the following thread and many other options etc, but doesnt work.
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/6...ernal-storage/
the adb shell does not detect my device, tried using 'PDANET' ' ends with 'cannot handshake with device'. tried installing droidexplorer, cannot see my device in the refresh list.
8. Thus as it stands now, i cannot use my internal as well external memory, the web downloads wont go, saying cannot see any memory, same for camera, it cannot see any memory available to it.
9. have already tried N number of restarts, connect disconnect and battery pulls.
10. tried even running the unrevoked, but it cannot connect to device.
11. tried installing all possible drivers as well.
12. its surely not bricked cuz i can use the base OS, and get into recovery through #4 tactics.
HELP!!
So as you have seen from the title i flashed the rom over the sd card instead of the internal storage,so now i can't connect my phone to the computer to change the baseband,and i can't flash the original rom either,when i tried to restore trought the backup file,android as buggy as it is automatically selectet the "BACKUP" option and created a new backup with ICS ,so this is my dillema (i can't connect i to the pc to change the baseband and i can't flash the original rom),can anyone pls help me?my phone isnt even one and a half years old,
THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!!!!!!!
Flashing a ROM over the SDcard is not possible.
The computer just hasn't installed the drivers. Search for adequate USB drivers and it will work
it recognizes the sd,but when i remove the sd card and connect the usb cable it says that a phone is connected,but it doesn't recognize the internal storage

That's a feature for not allowing people who don't know what they are doing to mess up the OS.
If you want to modify apps on the internal memory use titanium backup or a file manager with root acces
so thgat's why even when i go into recovery th the pc doesn't recognize it?
What is the connection between recovery, ics , pc. Basically what are you trying to do??
As thatnextdoorboy said.. search and install new usb drivers to pc.
You cant access internal memory.. so dont think about it. You can use only Sdcard for storage.
First search for BBFIX patch in this forum.. "store" it in sdcard.. go to recovery and flash it.
Second read all the threads here about upgrading baseband.. and dont do it till you are sure of what you are doing!!

Did you try another computer?
That happens to me if I have the phone locked when I plug it in. As soon as I unlock the phone the internal storage pops up. If that isn't what is happening to you then I don't know what the problem is.
i suggest u to try AirDroid instead. It seams wireless without needing usb cord.
So, here's the problem - I was just using my phone normally, when it froze - no big deal, recently it has been getting slower and I was just planning on factory resetting it after I back up everything. But, when it booted and went on the start screen, it says "Scanning USB storage for problems" or something like that and it says then "Damaged USB Storage -You may have to reformat it" and unmounts my SD card, so, I have no storage altogether. When I click on the notification it asks if I want to format USB storage. I just want to know if there's a way of retrieving some files, because in my phone FIle Manager there's nothing, and when I connect it to the PC (Windows XP), it doesn't dettect any stotage, if I do it through "USB Utilities" on my phone it shows two Removable Disks on my computer, which are empty, when I click on them it just says "insert disk into drive", and if I click "Turn on USB Storage" on my phone it just keeps on trying to connect, but can't.
I tried restarting it, taking the battery out, booting without an SD card, booting into safe mode, using adb to pull some files, searched the internet for a few hours but to no avail, found this "Tenoshare Android Data Recovery" but it needs root, which I'm not, so I tried rooting it with SuperOneClick - doesn't work, tried installing super user from the recovery menu from SD card, but it can't install it - I'm wondering if it's wortht it. So, now I don't know what to do - do I root my phone using the methods here (with odin and etc) and use that utility, do I just factory reset it (maybe try recovering files after I've reset it?), or is there any other available option to somehow recover the files? I'm on Android 4.0.4 unrooted with Baseband version I9103XXLQ3 - I had installed it a few years ago (my phone came with 2.3.6 and I just followed the instructions here on updating my firmware).
I'll be very grateful with any help, I just had a few more important files and the last time I backed up was in December, so any help is appreciated
Dear Community,
The day before yesterday's evening, my Lenovo YT3-X50L Tablet suddenly shut off. When I tried to boot, It showed me the login screen, I logged in, but one second after showing the Home Screen it crashed and rebooted. I logged in again - it crashed and rebooted again. I couldn't get into my device anymore.
I tried to use the recovery and made a factory reset, after which it showed me the usual Google setup menu (language, wifi, etc.). But it always got stuck at getting a wifi connection, although status was already "connected" and the wifi was working.
I erased the system partition (I don't know if this was a good idea...) and now i cannot boot into anywhere, I only see the Lenovo logo when starting.
I installed ADB, Fastboot and Lenovo downloader on a Laptop. After some hard work, I managed to get an ADB connection and could backup my data.
So now, I just want to put my device back into the state it was when it was shipped!
What I want to mention first: It seems that my sd card was corrupted, I don't know if this was the reason or has anything to do with my sudden device failure. I noticed this because of a mount error in recovery. I formatted the sdcard to FAT with the laptop and the mount error is gone now. The sd card was set as internal storage in Android. If this is possible, I would prefer to use any tool like fastboot to de-assign the sd card as internal storage, and only use the device's own internal 16GB storage, which is more than enough for basic functioning.
I downloaded the device's stock ROM from firmwarefile (just search "Lenovo YT3-X50L stock rom" on google, it's the first result, I am not allowed to post links in this forum as i am a new user) but I don't know how to properly flash it. Flashing the system_xx.img, boot.img, userdata_xx.img and recovery.img files (fastboot flash blabla blabla.img) doesn't make the device boot.
The Lenovo downloader tool isn't working for me. I installed the Qualcomm drivers as described and when I start my device with USB cable connected it shows up in the Tool window, status "flashing", but then gets stuck and doesn't seem to do anything.
Please Help! Might the device itself be dead? I would be very glad if we could resolve the issue very soon because I am on a trip to CERN at the moment and will travel back in a week, and I don't have any other mobile devices with me I could use to show the flight ticket...
My data is already saved, as I mentioned before - I just want my working device back!
