Flash 1.83 sbf., and then re-root with gingerbreak. Sounds like something went a miss in the updating process.

To try and resolve your issue, try THIS instead, and give the phone at least 5 minutes to boot, if it doesn't after that try again.

I had this. It's a soft brick and just flash 1.8.3 or any froyo sbf (1.2.6,1.5.7,1.8.3) with rsd and voila!
Thank you sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much! It worked perfectly!!!! Now I am going to go and find other ways that I can mess with my phone that could possibly brick it again!
P.S. Am I still unlocked? The unlocked thing went way...

unfortunately no since you flashed the official stock firmware. Just flash the unlock file with rsd again and once rebooted it should show up the unlocked text, no fastboot required

Evo 3D turns on but doesn't display

As of late, my 3d turns on but nothing shows up on the screen. The capacitive lights turn on and it does the quick vibrate when you power it on. Other than that, it shows no life. It randomnly started doing this, does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Pull out your battery, put it back in, and try charging your phone for about 30 min without turning the phone on. Then try again. Report back.
Thanks.

Will do thanks.
Additional info: When the phone is "on" my computer recognizes it, and I can tell it to boot into bootloader using adb. The phone is 100% stock, hboot 1.5 s-on. Also, after the phone is on, and I hit the power button, the capacitive lights turn on, and they shut off once I hit the power button again, as if the screen was being turned on, but it just doesn't display anything.
Also, is there anything I can do to possibly get the display back on. Something like put a stock ruu on my sd card, name it PG86IMG.zip, reboot into bootloader, apply the ruu and perhaps that would bring my display back on? Or is it more likely hardware related which I will have to take the phone apart?
Having the phone on the charger while off didn't change anything. Now I am flashing the latest stock ruu, while it's updating the phone's display SHOULD be on showing the status of the update, but it's not displaying anything. The update completed, the phone rebooted on its own, but again, the display never turned on. Not sure what to try now..?

This happened to me when I flashed a incompatible kernel......now all you need to do is flash a Rom and also flash the boot.img from that ROMs zip using fastboot and you will be good to go.

is your phone's bootloader unlocked with htcdev.com?
If you haven't unlocked your phone yet then I can't say for sure if flashing Rom and kernel will work or.not......
If you haven't unlocked , just use a RUU.exe and your phone should be working again unless its a hardware issue

Everything is locked, and I tried running the latest stock ruu and it completed everything, and my phone rebooted on its own after it was completed, and still the display won't come on.

AT&T Galaxy S II Black Screened

Agh!
I recently rooted my SGH-I777, flashed it using Clockword Mod Recovery, and then rebooted into recovery using CWM. But instead of rebooting into the recovery menu, everything went black. Now my phone won't reboot into recovery mode at all (not even with the Volume Up + Volume Down + Power combo). Instead, it gives me the Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 startup screen with the yellow triangle and then the screen goes all black, with quick flashes of dark gray.
When I removed the battery (to get it out of the black screen loop), returned the battery to the device, and plugged it in (without powering up the phone), the "charging" screen with the charging battery indicator flashed on the screen for a moment, and then back to all black flashes.
I removed the battery, SD card, and SIM card for about 20 minutes because I've read that can sometimes help. No dice.
I'm running ICS 4.0.3 with a Siyah 3.4.2 kernel.
This is probably either really bad or no big deal and I'm lame for not figuring it out, but... HELP! (Please? :fingers-crossed: ) I know this has been asked, but the other threads I've found have been able to get to recovery mode, whereas I can't seem to get to that point.
If you need any other info, let me know!

download mode and flash another kernel, or the same one.
sounds like broken recovery.

The phone is not even entertaining the idea of giving me a menu of any sort at this point. Just all black screens. Super frustrating.

No d/l mode, no CWM. = brick.
no offense but im pretty sure your just not holding the buttons right.
CWM= hold both vol, then hold power, let the first screen blink once, come back, then let off power is my trick.
download, you can just hold vol buttons and insert USB belive.
Somebody used rom manager!

A-ha! Ok, so definitely no on the CWM combo, but I do get a menu using DL mode. Thank you. Seeing at least a menu made me feel much better.
I re-flashed the initial kernel, but no change. Still stuck in perpetual black screen boot loop.
I'm not opposed to doing a full-fledged wipe using Odin, if that's an option, but I've never looked into it before, and I'm currently feeling pretty gun shy when it comes to getting creative with any new tricks.

If you want stock, flash a stock ROM, or stock with root, with Odin.
If you want custom, after you flashed that custom kernel, you CAN get into CWM and flash a custom ROM.
and NEVER use ROM manager, hell it was a joke when it came out, sorry koush
EDIT:
and if you do go custom, dont forget to wipe data/factory reset in CWM before flashing.

You rock. Thank you a ton for being so patient!!
To any other fool who gets into the same mess, I went into DL mode (volume up + volume dwn + usb attached) and opted to let this do the rest of the work because it was the only option that didn't give me a heart attack: androidarea51.com/samsung-galaxy-s-ii/samsung-galaxy-sii-(sgh-i777)-att-only/
From there, I had the option of rebooting, initializing a factory reset... all of the menu options I wasn't seeing when I couldn't figure out how to get into CWM mode. Good luck!!

I know, I know (and this is a dumb excuse, much like using rom manager in the first place), but the tutorial I was reading made it seem like it was a good option. I hadn't used it in forever and logic coupled with faith in a perpetually broken system paves the road to hell, but I figured, "There's no way it still sucks as badly as I remember!"
Don't think that. Ever. My mistake.
Charge the baterry externally thats what I did when my old infuse was bricked

Samsung Galaxy s2 i-777 does not turn on
okay so I read through this thread and I still don't know how to fix my issue. I rooted my phone using Odin v 1.85 and used siyah 3.4.2. I did it successfully and everything was good. I then gave the phone to my cousin and he said he performed a factory reset to get rid of everything on the phone ( contacts ,etc). Now when I turn on the phone it shows the samsung galaxy display with the triangle and then the screen goes black and just blinks. It still goes back into download mode I just dont know what to do to fix the problem. I know I'm a noob but please HELP!!!

Have you tried flashing back to stock using odin? BTW it is not good etiquette to necro a thread that has been dormant for almost 9 months.

Need help with g2x!!

So, I've had my LG G2x for about a year now. About 2 days ago it stopped working. So I tried rebooting it manually (Power and Vol.-). It worked! Later that night the phone stopped working again. I have tried rebooting it many times and have given up on that. So I tried One-Click Recovery Flasher to try and reboot it. I have tried all three flashes ( 4.0.1.5., 5.0.2.0. and the Stock) and then I try rebooting in the flashes and the LG logo pops up and then the screen turns black. And it's a loop so it just pops up and goes black again. Is this fixable? If I flash it with Stock and go to T Mobile can they fix it? SOMEBODY HELP!!!
