well, you have to keep trying, the trick is to wait just long enough, but not too long. took me some time to try, but finally it worked (you have to keep turning the phone on and off ofcourse)

I was trying to update my WM5 to WM6 I have the G4 8125 , now it wont turn on I plugged it in to the charger port and the light that shows it's charging doesn’t even come on. Last night after I was trying to update it went completely blank, I tried to run the Official AT&T RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship_1 and it wont even connect to my phone it gives me the connect error, every now and then last night it would show the boot loader screen but now its doing nothing someone HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!! PLZZZ Does this mean my phone is bricked ???
brick is normal!
you should donate the brick to xda-developers now!
What you mean is normal ? is their anyway way i can get it fixed or is it just a paper weight now ?
probably runed out of battery. you should charge the battery in some way. try to power on the device while pressing camera button. it should show a boot loader screen. the you should flash a G4 SAFE ROM (with no spl/ipl) like "wizard love". if that doesnt help, sorry mate, you have a brick
are you able to enter bootloader?
hold down camera and either press power or reset button
No im not able to do anything on the phone lastnight it would go into bootloader randomly evey now and again but it isnt doing nothing now.
Ugh , i hope it is just the battery if it isnt then theirs nothing i can do for the phone unless i can get it in to bootloader mode right ?
your battery is dead...that's why you can't enter bootloader.
Moving to wizard G4.
Only the original charger is capable to charge your battery (it has a little bit more power), if it's fully charged... go into bootloader mode and install your official ROM the normal way.
It worked for me.
correct
im dealing with the same issue and my battery isnt dead

That's not very encouraging and nice thing to say.We all came here as newbies,not a big deal.
We all hate to see a guy loose his device like this,after all it's a developer's forum,we shud be atleast concerned and help out,if we can.
Hope you two be able to get your devices working again soon.
Good luck
Fixed
I just wanted to thank everyone for your help , i got my new battery in yesterday and my phone booted up flashed back to at&t orginal rom. Thank So Much.....
Hi all
Thanks to an outdated link on some external website I updated my ROM with an older v4 raphael - and now I'm stuck at this "This concludes the beta test of this software release" screen.
I CANNOT get into bootloader either
I dont want to throw this phone away now !!!
I'd be eternally grateful to someone...ANYONE who can get me back into working mode ..
PLEASE HELP. I've been searching these forums for 20+ hours now without sleep - and found nothing to help me get the phone back to working state.
Try taking out the battery, SIM & SD card. Wiat a minute or so and put only the battery back in.
SIMULTANEOUSLY press volume down, center button and soft reset. CONTINUE to hold volume down and center button. You should get to the tri-color bootloader screen. If you do, you will be fine, just flash a new ROM from SD. If not...
BTW did you Hard SPL?
Doug M.
I just tried that
It comes back to the normal windows mobile screen (like it would if i did soft reset). I did run the hardSPL before doing this - and I did see the tricolor screen before i updated this ROM
I just cant figure out how to get to the tricolor

also make sure you press UP on the volume control this will hard rest you. You should be able to let it run and it will get to the calibration screen. Once there run a new ROM wrapper.exe and all should be ok. Had similar issues like this don't panic.
Ive tried every combination of button pressing.... it just resets back to the OS screen
Humour me for a moment ...
Pull out the battery, pull out the SIM, and pull out your SD Card if you have.
Put the battery back in and only hold the Volume Down button. Keep holding Volume Down and turn on the device.
If all is well, you should see the TriColor Bootloader screen with USB in the bottom white area. If so, connect you're USB cable to your pc & device.
Flash the HTC Stock ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478657) for now just to get the device up and running.
Let me know how you make out.
Cheers,
Now that the real tech studs are here you are in good hands. Just try what they recommend exactly. This is an unforgiving process. You really need to do it precisely as recommended.
It definitely sounds like this is fixable. Once you get this fixed, keep flashing.
Best of luck.
Doug M.
Thanks everyone !!
I have managed to unbrick it, reflash it and upgrade to RC4 and have it working !!
I love this community
I'd get this answer to the FAQ
Everyone who tried to flash a ROM for the first time has been terrified from this exact consequence...
hilaireg, I'm feeling much more comfortable now, knowing you are part of this helpful and amazing forum.
Thank god you are happy, otherwise if I see someone stuck with this process it hurts me more than anyone else. Always do ROM upgrade as shown by MSKIP in the sticky thread for beginners. Cheers.
Glad it helped ... if it was my suggestion that got the OP going.
sakshamkatyal is correct, mskip did a fantastic job at documenting the process and what I suggested ultimately does come from that article.
In this situation, the important lesson to learn is not the recovery; it is to always research and read up on a ROM one is planning to use so as to ensure that it is a) the most current, b) from a trusted source, and c) supported on an ongoing basis by the chef who prepared it.
Cheers,
After ROM upload my HTC Hero show only some logo like device out of box. Nothing else is going. Button combinations for bootloader access is not working. Any ideas?
I managed to skilfully brick mine too, is a there a way to get it to boot up via key combination or using USB from a computer?
We are three now.
I know (presumably) my error: I flashed an SPL zip package that could be of the wrong type (Dream).
The boot shows the phone logo (mine says G2 T-Mobile).
The home keydown at boot doesn't work.
Is there a possibility to unbrick it?
Hope someone tells you how to unbrick it as I was about to do the update the ROM, not sure I want to do it now.
Right this is very weird as i had the same picture on my phone and thought it was bricked too..
BUT i just did a soft reset call menu end together. Then i did a hard reset as i wasnt sure if the soft one had done anything. Battery out then in and start up phone whilst holding down house and back key and then it started to boot up. So not sure if this helps anyone i doubt it as its very random but i thought id share just in case!!!
I had just flashed my radio when mine did this..
friend of mine had tha problem too, he had to send his device to htc.. 50 bucks ;-)
hmmm ... i am one of u guys now ...
no matter what key-combo i press, it just show a BOX and an arrow and a phone ... 3 sec later, phone turns off, no matter hwat key u press, it is not doing anything until u unplug the batery ... then when u turn it on, it repeat the same thing again
check if you can access fastboot via back+power when the phone is off. if so install recovery image and then install correct rom. if not i guess you're screwed, not sure though.

Please be more explicit as to what exactly you did.
(for someone to help you)
Hi guys,
I have a problem with my x10 mini pro. There are some similar posts here but nobody exactly describe what is happening to me. So my problem:
One day i have been in subway, phone working properly everything fine. THan suddenly 3G icon has disappear and wouldnt go back. So i decided to restart the device. But since i turned it off, i cannot turn it back on again...
I have tried to take out the simcard, take out mempory card, multiple time reflash by SEUS but still cannot turn it on.
I cna charge the phone with no problem, i can flash it with no problem, but i cannot use it at all.
When i press power button, phone shortly vibrate as he is turning on, than display get a bit brighter (not white, just lights up its easy to notice from profile). and than after few seconds get black again. And like this it continue until it drains battery, only without vibrating. every cca 5 seconds display light up and than get black again. So i guess its rebooting all the time. I have tried all tricks like pressing power+home button, still nothing.
I think i just need really wipe out the whole phone and flash it again. Is it possible somehow? I feel like reflashing by SEUS is not real hardcore flash, is there anything stronger i can try?
I am willing to try anything if anybody has an idea, since its not working anyway so i dont care what i try.
Thanks for advices !
try binary's flash tool, it helps every out. use it in the same way you would SEUS

I try this already... Still the same
Try to flash 1.6 back.
I had the same problem, didnt ever find a way to fix it so had it replaced under warrenty. may be your only way on this problem im afraid.
I tried 1.6 - didnt work
Problem is that i have no warranty.... I just gave it to my friend who is going to singapore, she knows some official SE shop, so maybe i will get it fixed, but im not sure if it wont be for the same money as new phone...
Well the phone is under a year old so it will be covererd under se warranty unless they think you broke there warranty in any way. I would flash it back to your original FW before having it looked at and wipe your sd card.
I bought it in chinese market (Its not a copy) without any receipt or anything, I dont think so they will took it as a warranty. I have done all of this. Flashed to my original FW, wiped everything, nothing works...
did u try SEUS ?
is your phone getting detected via SEUS in flash mode ? what happens when :
1. Take off the battery for 30 secs
2. connect the phone to usb
3. Power on the phone with back button pressed.
if SEUS detects u should be able to flash it. The flash tool also should be working.
Hey, This is my first post so hopefully i didnt pick the wrong section to write in
So here it is.. A while ago my phone started acting crazy.. voice command started up.. turned off, started up again.. MTP started ( like i was plugging in USB cable) on and off and on and off again.. This was after i had rooted my phone for the first time.. but i was on stock rom at that point when all happend..
Now when im trying to charge my phone it takes like 30-60 sec till it starts charging.. same when i unplug the phone, takes 30-60 seconds for the phone to realise that there is no cable connected to the phone..
Can't turn off the phone.. when i turn it off its black for a few seconds then the samsung logo pops up and the phone boots up again.. and some times when i turn off the phone the battery logo appears and it shows that the battery is over heated..
This is what i have tryed:
- Re flashing, alot of diffrent roms
- Factory reset
- Format System, sd card, data
- Flash back to stock rom
Thx / Wrix
I remember seeing this issue in a few threads last year. Check this thread out as it lokos to be the same issues they were having http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1174291&page=6
It seems some had to return their device and others were able to get it working again by cleaning out the micro usb port with a toothbrush. Worth trying. If nothing works, maybe you will have to return it. Hopefully not though
Thx alot.. Will take a look at the link you posted and see if there is something i can do to fix this issue.. hopefully i wont have to send it in to repair cuz i have rooted it.. dunno if samsung can see that if i use USB Jig ? hopefully not but will try with toothbrush to see if it works!
Again thx alot for the advices
EDIT: Toothbrush didnt work at all ;(
/Wrix
Just make sure you reset the counter and you should be fin returning it.
Your device should still be under warranty. I'd wipe, flash the stock ROM that you had on it when you bought it and use the jig if you have one. Then see about getting it returned. Good luck!
