hi all. I have a huge problem. I tried to fix the lag by using the file posted here and it didn't solve the problem so i tried to delete the lag fix from "remove" option on MCR program then it went to black! Ok, here is the important part. When I rooted the phone, I used sdk option to root the phone as my buttons were not worked for recovery mode (newer version i guess...) and now , as i can't use the sdk option to make it recovery mode, i can't fix the brick problem!! Can someone pls get into this? I purchased this phone from ebay and set up the phone for last 3 days....if i don't sove this, I'll be in trouble..Thanks all!

Have you tried this? This works for me..
For recovery mode this works for me,
Remove battery
Install battery
Press and hold vol+/vol-
Press and hold power button
Once you see the Vibrant Screen do not release any of the buttons (vol+/vol- and power buttons) it will go black then back to Vibrant screen, then you release the power button only but keep pressing the vol-/vol+ buttons... this should get you into recovery mode..
For Download mode this helps me,
Remove Battery
Plug in USB cable to phone and computer
Put Battery In.. wait a couple of seconde until it shows the battery being charge..
Press and hold the vol+/vol- and the power button..
This will power up you phone.. once you see the Vibrant screen and it turn black, release the power button only.. this should get you into DL mode (it works for me). good luck.
Well If you have the hardware locked vibrant you are out of luck. There is nothing you can do

one last question. I already set up all email acc and contacts..so if they fix it , are they able to see all my emails (i'll change password stuff but old msgs) and my contact lists? This is a privary reason tho.
it works on my T-mobile Vibrant.
just wipe the phone before you give them for another one

After you get to download mode SEARCH for odin 2.1 stock flash(its in the vibrant bible too) and you are good to go.

I was Odining back to stock and then it failed. I turned my phone off then back on and it goes to This sign where is shows Phone caution sign then computer. Way to fix it?
Is this the Download Mode? If it is, I suggest Odining (if that's a word) eugene's Does Not Brick 2.2 (re-partition), and then load up JFD again. That's gotten me out of many a jam.
Dont worry, search in general for soft brick.

It wont show in odin because you are not in download mode, get into download mode, if you cannot figure it out SEARCH or post in the proper thread, its not that hard to undo where you are at.
Your phone isn't bricked...the first time that I used Odin I got the same error message after disconnecting my phone mid-download.
All you have to do start over from step one and eventually you will get back into download. Give time time, be patient.
No i do know how to get into download mode. I'v been in it before, I know i don't have a defected locked Vibrant. My phone will not get into it though. I hold the buttons for almost a minute. I tired so many ways. I searched. But still, Nothing.
post your Skype ID and I will help you
I don't have skype, Baha. Umm, I'll make one?
This always works for me, not my video but these are the steps I would show you and always works for me.

Only thing I can suggest is to unlock the bootloader then install a custom rom that doesn't have crapblur
Try the following:
Need a MotoCast ID?
Go to Settings > Accounts on your Motorola Android phone and select MotoCast ID, or visit mymotocast.com and download and install the MotoCast desktop software.
Grabbed that from their Website. Should be able to create an account once you download the software it appears.
I had similar grief when I had my sim card replaced even though its the same service number, motoblur actually pairs the SIM ID + Service Number to your Motoblur accuont... which I find is ridiculous but it is what it is.
Power off phone. Hold down power and volume down. Release power when you see words across the top and scroll down to recovery mode. Then select wipe data / factory reset. Reboot and create yourself a motoblur account. As soon as you pull your sim card though it will ask you to log in again

ya but like i said that is another problem, when trying to unlock the bootloaders, when it says to hold vol. up and power....it just boots up...it wont do none of that, and that motocast has nothing to do with this problem, i cant even go 2 settings anyway
that does not work eather...it wont do that eather
Do the volume buttons actually work?

yes
When motoblur setup comes up, can you hit menu and add an APN to get 3G data?
Try holding up/down Vol while inserting the battery, keep holding till you get into rsd or fastboot - depending which button you press.

Hello,
About two months ago I factory resetted and fully recharged my Acer Liquid MT.
Didn't use it for quite a while, but recently I wanted to but apparently the battery was empty meanwhile.
Charged it for hours but it didn't go on anymore (tried most basic stuff: changing battery, reset button etc)
Didn't show 'any sign of life' however. No screen, no sound, nothing at all.
Yesterday I did hold the Power Button and both Volume Buttons for a few seconds and it quickly vibrated a few times + one (normal) vibrate afterwards.
I think it isn't completely bricked since it did vibrate.
However, how am I going to be able to get this thing working again?
Many thanks in advance!
PS: Rooted, no custom ROM.
Edit
Forgot to mention, but my PC doesn't detect the phone anymore when connected to USB ...
i'm sorry...
it sounds your phone is bricked... i don't know how u could fix it

There is a liquid metal forum on modaco.com, maybe you should look there. If it was working before, maybe it fell down once or got some hardware fault? 3 vibrations were SD download mode AFAIK

No help from there really ...
Well it didn't fell down, it was fully charged & working, until I tried it later on
Ok, keep device manager opened, connect phone and power on with all the key combo's mentioned here and tell me what happens in device manager: what device is popping up etc.

Thanks for your interest in my problem.
The phone doesn't respond to any of the commands anymore.
Also, what do you mean with 'device manager' exactly?

It needs good charging as the battery has drained completely and will take time , may be couple of days. If it doesn't fix the problem then take it to a mobile shop and ask them to power charge it. It will fix the problem. I had the same issue with this phone...
I hope it helps...

Or just hit the Windows Key (next to Alt by the Spacebar) + the letter R together then type : devmgmt.msc and hit enter.
When the Device Manager is open and you plug in the device, you should see it blink out for a sec and reload and show you the device - probably will see a yellow warning symbol next to it - if so that means the PC sees it, just not loading the correct driver.
On my Samsung Galaxy S3 (d2mtr) it keeps giving me a "Mobile network not available" error whenever I try and make a call. I can go on the web and social networking apps; download apps. The only thing I can not do is make calls. I looked under settings and saw that "Network Operators" is not available to enter. Any ideas on how to fix this??
EDIT: My IMEI number does in fact show up. Idk what is wrong with this.
EDIT: NEW PROBLEM. I was reading a tutorial about flashing back to stock firmware and it said to downgrade my bootloader. I used the recovery flash method and now I have a black screen. Can't do anything. Turn off, turn on. Just stays black with no response. Someone help fast Please

No sir I can not just stays on a black screen.
Plug it in your wall charger and leave it for 15-20 minutes to charge. Then retry. Maybe your battery is discharged. I've read similar posts. Good luck!
If you've flashed the wrong bootloader or it went wrong then you have a hard brick. Try a usb jig, but probable you'll need a new motherboard.

Hit the home button 3 times to off universal switch mode
I tried pressing the home button, but it is not working for me. Maybe the nova launcher intercepts the home button. Ahhh.. I don't want to format my phone. I also tried rebooting it, now I am locked out of my phone..
Update: I found the solution. Just use an OTG and Connect a mouse to disable the feature..
I had the same issue @Keitri
tried all solution like soft rest and run it in safe mode, and run recovery mode and wipe cache partition but no success
could you help me inn the problem and explain how did you overcome the issue?
thanks

Sorry for the late reply. Just connect a usb mouse using the OTG cable. From there you can disable the universal switch.
it works with OTG cable + mouse
