[Q] Atrix 2 soft brick topic

Hi all,

I have an Atrix 2, where the phone wont boot up without a charger. And even if its connected with charger, it only boot to motorola logo, and shows battery level before goes completely blank.

I heard flashing the firware again using RSD lite, with phone connected to PC with fast boot mode will fix this, but I can't disconnect the charger from the phone, and booting the phone while its connected to USB wont work.

I can boot into the OS when going to bptools in recovery mode tho. Can any one help?

Thanks in advance.

[Q] Samsung Soft Bricked - how to restore? topic

I tried flashing to 2.3.5 after i got stuck on boot after flashing a CM nightly. This got me stuck into recovery and ended up getting a "E: Cant mount /sdcard/" error.

After this, i decided to try flashing back to stock using this Odin one click: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989

Now, my phone boots and gets stuck in a boot loop, constantly restarting the the white at&t startup screen. When i plug it in to my pc to access download mode, all i get is a grey battery screen with a spinning circle.

I now have a USB jig, so what should i do at this point to get my phone back into working condition? Hopefully to where i can flash a stable CM11 rom afterward.

[Q] Soft reboot when turning on USB storage topic

Has any one else experienced the issue that the Fairphone performs a soft reboot when turning on USB storage, effectively making it impossible to transfer files to/from your phone the normal way? I have disabled the mood background, so that can't be it...

As a workaround, for now I'm transferring files through adb, but that's far from ideal.

Soft bricked phone even after factory image flash topic

Hi all, I am in urgent need of some help...

I got my GS4 when it first came out back in May. It was the VRUAMDK build. I used ODIN and motochopper to get it rooted, eventually got CM going and have been using it ever since.

Today I was playing around flashing different nightlies of CM11. I went to restore from a backup, but it error'd out and said it couldn't restore /data. I rebooted anyway and it hung on the CM logo for about 10 minutes. I tried a wipe/restore again and the same thing happened. I should note that since updating to CWM 6.x.x.x from (I think?) 2.x.x.x I hadn't attempted a restore from backup, but I know that restore worked on CWM 2.

So anyway I went to this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2301259

Followed the instructions, similar to when I first rooted my phone, and flashed the 99% factory image with Odin. It "worked" ie no errors but upon reboot my phone hangs on the Verizon logo. It gets through the Samsung boot logo but will just sit at the Verizon logo. Not frozen because the logo is shimmering.

At this point I have no idea what to do. Help?

[Q] (URGENT) LG G2 VS980 soft brick (No ROM or Recovery, only download mode) topic

I have VS980, with some version of PA 4. I hadnt updated it in a while so i downloaded the latest zip and tried to flash it with twrp. (i dont remember the exact version, but not 2.7) For some reason i suppose twrp didnt like to play nice with 4.4.3 and failed to something about updating binaries. I'm not sure what it was, doesnt really matter now though. That sorta messed up the rom enough so that it would never boot. it would get to the boot animation, but no further without intervention. So of course i was like "i gotta update my recovery!!" but alas i tried to flash it using adb and now twrp wont work, it only comes to a black screen. So i have been able to find no way to get into fastboot in lg g2 and i cant adb while in recovery and i have no ROM to work with. All i have is download mode which has (according to me) rendered my phone useless. I have been scouring the internet for hours trying to fix this with Download mode, perhaps with odin, but it's only for samsung devices i think. I have exhausted my mind and options and I am completely dumbfounded. If someone could shed some light on this it would be awesome. Before i take it to verizon to play stupid haha. All help is appreciated. I am a semi noob when it comes to this stuff, or i suppose really nooby.

I have been personally going through a lot lately and i cant handle this right now and i feel really bad but i really need help. all help is appreciated.

Soft Brick after failed 4.3 OTA topic

I've been running 4.2.2, rooted, SafeStrap'd and SuperSU. Today, I went back to stock ROM (I switch back and forth, between stock and Hyperdrive), I forgot I had rebooted during a forced update for 4.3. Well, update finished downloading, and automatically went to install, of course, with my phone, it always fails @ 29-30%. Phone went to start back up, went thru the SafeStrap and stayed at the AT&T logo. Pulled battery and went to SS, and activated Slot 2 (Hyperdrive). Phone just boot looped thru the SS and then shut off and so on and so forth. So I tried to do a factory reset, and that failed. So I tried to restore backup, in SS and that failed. I'm thinking that even though the 4.3 update failed, it somehow put enough of info, into the bootloader, to change it to a 4.3. I'm going to try to ABD MF3, then MI2 and if that fails, ML2.
Just wanted to give you a heads up....seems AT&T is hellbent on pushing this locked down update through.

Soft bricked my device maybe? HELP!!! topic

I did my search before posting this, so I'm sorry if this has been already resolved but I couldn't find solution to this.

I've a Kindle HDX 8.9 64GB wifi model, it was rooted installed SU, installed safestrap on it and had google play store and gapps working on it., I was too busy so left it device as it is and never used it. Recently got free and noticed it was downloading update. I remembered reading that update breaks Root so switched off device as I panicked and then turned it on in airplane mode. I came here and saw what could be done to prevent update. Tried firewall with IP tables that didn't help as download of update resumed after I turned airplane mode off. Then I did more search did below changes
I renamed otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.old in /etc/security/
I renamed com.amazon.dcp.apk to com.amazon.dcp.apk.old in /system/app/

along with above changes I made changes suggested in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2678600

"edit build.prop
ro.build.version.number=999999999"

After doing all these changes, update stopped and started giving me error of unable to check update. I was all happy. Started using device normally and everything was fine till I rebooted device and that's when it messed up.

Tablet starts normally with Kindle fire logo and then comes Safestrap menu with options to continue or go into recovery. I clicked continue as usual and it just sits there with grey screen. Doesn't do anything at all from there on. I rebooted again and was able to go into recovery mode but I never took backup (I know dumb of me) so there was nothing I could do there. I tried to turn on adb sideload in recovery but it kept attempting to turn on but never did. When kindle is in grey screen its been detected on Laptop. In device manager device is detected 2 places as shown in picture attached, One under other devices with shows android device with yellow triangle on it and also under portable devices as MTP usb device. Though I'm unable to see it detected in file system. I've kindle drivers already installed.

I'm not sure renaming those files messed my system up or changing build prop messed it up. But I'm unable to find solution to fix this mess.

I would really appreciate help as I'm in pretty tight position here. Device can't be returned to amazon as I'm in India now. So only option I got is to repair it somehow or its 0 down the drain :(

[Q] Alcatel One Touch Pop C5 soft brick topic

Hi everyone,

I have an Alcatel One Touch Pop C5 (Alcatel 5036D). I made a backup in stock recovery before I installed the Xposed framework. After the installation i did a reboot but it stuck at the boot logo. Then i restored my backup but it didn't work, the screen just turned black, so after an hour i restarted my phone. Now I can't do anything, i can't even get in recovery (but it is a soft brick, i can still see the boot logo). I guess i will have to flash the ROM again but i'm a newbie (I installed some customs ROM's before but not on this phone), and no custom ROM's are available. Does anybody know what to do? I would really appreciate your help! :)

Verizon Galaxy S4 SCH-I545 Soft Brick topic

I am having an issue that I was hoping someone could assist with. I have rooted devices before, galaxy s3, motorola droid x, and the original droid and have never had any issues.

I had the verizon model I545 galaxy s4 and MJ7 build. I used saferoot to obtain root and safestrap 3.71. I also installed ODIN 3.07. I was able to boot into recovery mode just fine, create a new ROM slot and install RLS14. My wifi would not work until I also used safestrap to install jfltevzw-MJ7-modules. At this point everything worked fine. No issues for 4 days and was loving the ROM. I could use safestrap to reboot to recovery no problem. But then I let it lose power.

Upon plugging it into a charger I found that it would just show the empty battery sign and then reset and show that symbol again. I was unable to get it to boot properly. I used the volume up key and saw the blue text "booting recovery" but then it just power cycled and came back to the empty battery sign again. I tried all combinations I could think of but couldn't get anything to work. I was however able to use the down volume button to get it into odin mode so decided to flash emergency stock recovery.

I then used ODIN to install the stock ROM (SCH-I545_VZW_1_20131023084910_v4vth34m5z_fac.zip) and the install finished correctly but I am still having the same issue. should i re-partition as well? I have the relevant .PIT file.

I verified all checksums on my downloads before using.

Any thoughts? I'm not sure what to do next because I was assuming the factory wipe would work. I can provide any other information.
