[Q] Help. Damn emergency - Optimus One, P500, V General

Okay my touch screen was fried..
Now I can't get into debugging mode!!!
I want to flash stock rom via KDZ
But now debugging mode is off!!!
So how can I do it??
PLSPLSPLSPLS!! REPLY!!

by sending it to service center. tell them that battery got completely drained and phone shut down, after recharging phone kaput.

Do you want to get back to stock for giving phone to warranty sevices? Then you have two options:
1. Restore this nand backup of v10b, android v2.2. It is rooted, you can easily unroot it using z4root, and it is an AmonRa backup. If you have CWM you can switch to amonra easily by using ciaox's flashable zips.
2. If you don't like the above (easier) method, then you can boot into emergency mode by using back+vol up+power button combo, then use the kdz to get back to stock.
If you feel that getting back to stock will fix a hardware problem with your touchscreen then you are mistaken (just saying this because the touchscreen problem seems out of context).

Will T-Mobile Know?

Ok, here it goes: I have tried searching for the answer, and haven't quite found the answer that pertains to my situation. I recently flashed Obsidian on my Vibrant and decided to revert back to my backed up stock rom using ClockworkMod Recovery app. My phone then failed to boot past the Vibrant/Samsung screen. I have tried to get into recovery, but the phone only stays on Vibrant/Samsung screen and fails to go to recovery screen. No matter what method is tried to get to recovery, the phone gets stuck on the Vibrant/Samsung screen and will not boot past that or go to recovery. This being said, my question is: When my phone goes back to T-Mobile for warranty, will they be able to tell if its rooted if it doesn't boot and can't get to recovery? Or will they just do their thing and reflash the stock rom thus wiping any evidence?

Another person trying to scam a company..
That being said, It is a 50/50 chance of them knowing, and I hope they do know.
Why dont you odin back to stock and not claim a warranty exchange for something that is your own fault
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Go to the Vibrant android development section and look for the vibrant bible.
once there read up on using ODIN.
USE IT.
Than put down the phone and never flash a rom again until you learn to read directions.
oh and by the way, how bout you NOT try and scam ppl cuz you cant follow simple directions. going to tmobile and filing a claim is BS. YOU are the one responsible for your phone no longer working. Ppl wonder why prices on data plans and other costs go up. They have to keep paying out the ass on other crap that could easily have been avoided had the end user had any durn sense

Can people ever take responsibility for their acts? The warnings posted on all the ROM threads are there for a reason. If you cannot bring your phone back to live with the information available online including these forums just suck it up, be a man.
I know I should take resposibilty for my own actions, but when a phone is supposed to be able to boot into recovery by using the 3-button method, but that method isn't funtioning because Samsung disabled it (like many other people have experienced) how do I take responsibilty for equipment that doesn't do what its supposed to? When the phone doesn't boot into recovery like it is supposed to, how do I fix my own actions. My brick is partly my fault and I know that, but partly a faulty phone.

Not at all! They released a fix for that (JI6)
You were the one who bricked your phone & are trying to scam T-Mobile.
Adb into download mode, use odin, flash to stock

So if J16 was supposed to fix that, why was it that even T-Mobile couldn't get it to boot into recovery?

Ok, first off, you bricked it because JK2 and JI6 or any 2.1 version run on different kernels, and clockwork doesnt install kernels (and this is why you can't go into recovery, not because the phone is faulty.). I did this before and ODIN will fix it right up. Use it.
It will only take about an hour to get everything back the way you want rather than waiting a week or so. No need to file a warranty complaint, this is your fault but very easy to fix.

Because YOU modified your phone, and messed up!
Odin will fix one of your problems. The other can't be fixed...
recovery won't do you any good because it needs the kernel to load.
you need download mode.
with the phone completely off and not connected to the computer, press and hold the vol + and vol - buttons at the same time. then plug in the usb and you'll boot into download mod.
You then go about flashing w/ odin to get your phone working again.

[Q] Bricked Phone?

I flashed Simply Galaxy V3.0 RC3.1. I followed the "best result" directions. My phone is now constantly rebooting from the crazy screen colors (rainbow) to the Samsung boot. I tried to use the 3-buttoms to go back to clockwork recovery, but it would just constantly reboot. Is my phone gone or is there a way out of this? Thank you in advance. (By the way, I was on Simply Galaxy 2.7.2 rom before flashing the new rom.)
pull battery
open odin
connect usb to computer
plug usb to phone
hold both volume buttons and insert the battery, download mode?
cool, just go back to stock. Links in my signature (going back to stock) has a guide and the files needed to fix you up.
Read the sticky thread and odin it back to stock. Your phone is fine.
Edit : oops better answer above. ^^

Thanks a lot. I was starting to worry a lot more because I wasn't able to get into download mode. After a couple of tries, I was able to do so. My next question is: can I use my Nandroid Backup after I root and install CWR on my phone? Or do I have to start all over again?

Yes you can use your nandroid, after reverting back to stock with ODIN.

[Q] Stuck in CWM loop Help?!?

I was trying to go from my current ROM Perception v1-RC1 back to UnNamed v2.21 and got stuck in a clockwork mod recovery loop.
None of the blue menu options work, they just go to the CWM icon. All I can do is power off my phone and it just boots back to the same place.
I did get to the ODEN option somehow at one point but haven’t been able to get back…(screen I came to when I first rooted.)
I have switched from ROM to Rom in the past but never had this issue. Yes I’m a noob and I have been searching for the answer and did find exitrecovery.zip recommended for other devices but not a SGS2 and don’t want to do any more harm. Also it sounds like those people have their CWM menu working in some fashion but just couldn’t reboot. Should I go back to ODEN and start from scratch like I am re-rooting? ANY help would be great. (Walk through, point me in the right direction, anything.)
Thanks
KC37
Here is my info (what I can get)
Phone: AT&T Galaxy S2
CWM: Recover Version 5.0.2.3
Kernel: (Whatever came with Perception v1-RC1)
(If you can tell me how to get more info that could help let me know)
**Update**
when "trying" to turn the phone off it goes to a battery icon and back to CWM. I can't get back to ODEN reader mode ( Vol Down+power)
Ancient kernels use home/back instead of power.
Yeah, I was dumb and back to the Odin mode...I thought I would start from scratch so I flashed the .tar file I started with a while back: SGH-I777-ATTGalaxyS2RootStockZedomaxKernel.tar
Passed in Oden, good right?
Reboot went right back to CWM loop...
Am I looking to redo everything? Phone DPA ect? 100% new firmware?

Like entropy said you use the home key to make your cwm selection. Also to get into download mode your phone needs to be unplugged , then you hold power + volume down and plug it in to usb.

Correction on my last post its just volume down and plug it in. No power button.

FIXED!!!!!
flashed SiyahKernel v2.6.14 in ODEN on a whim and I'm back!
Zedo's kernel is also ancient - definitely does not work with UCKK6, and probably doesn't have the fixed recovery keymap either.
I just use the pre rooted stock odin roms in Dev section and return the device to stock (No BL). Then flash CWM. Saves a lot of headache when jumping different roms.

vibrant has i9000 screen and keeps bootlooping

I tried flashing ics passion earlier and keep getting bootloops with no chance to get into recovery; i odin back to stock but whenever it boots up it shows i9000 then immediately changes to vibrant then boots up like normal... but now i can't get into recover with the volume buttons only way to get into recovery is for me to use quick boot app and let it get me into recovery.... idk what to do at this point... i mean my phone isn't broke so it's not terrible i just would prefer to be able to flash again.
i did trying odin a gb bootloader so i was kinda thinking maybe thats where it went wrong but i figured odin back to jfd would solve any bootloader changes...
any help would be fantastic...

Try using VOL-Down + Power to get into recovery (the GB bootloader way, froyo is both vol plus power)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117990
You can use the "JFD ODIN File - For use after installing Gingerbread Bootloaders" to fix the I9000 screen.
wow that worked.... i guess i was just used to vol up and down... never knew it was different for gb... thanks!

[q] get into locked phone?

So I just bought an at&t i717 note off eBay that was run over by a car or something. I pulled the logicboard out and swapped it into my note to test it and its working 100% so far. Problem is the seller had it locked with a pattern and now won't contact me. So I thought I could get the phone into recovery and do a factory reset or something, not even sure that would work.
Now I also can't get into recovery. No matter what I tried. I flashed a stock rom via odin, still nothing. I tried to root the phone and flash CWM and still the same thing....
When I try to enter recovery it goes immediately to the download screen. Any help would be great I need to get this puppy cracked. I'm pretty new to android so it's tough to know what to do.
Thanks :good:
Hold both volume buttons down when trying to get into recovery.
still stuck
Just flashed another stock ATT rom, this one was ICS. Then I flashed cwm recovery and still just goes to the download screen! Getting pissed.
If I wasn't locked out of the phone I could get ROM manager and boot into recovery..
Any help would be great!
Definitely holding both UP and DOWN volume buttons. I've tried multiple times and still same result.
OK I am thinking the volume UP on this logic board is not working...
Adb reboot recovery

Yep...."adb reboot recovery" should work fine.
If not, boot into download mode and reflash the stock ROM and recovery via ODIN.

What about not being able to get into the phone to enable USB Debugging?
ANyone have any ideas? ADB is my only hope but there is currently no way to enable usb debugging without getting into settings. Can a ROM be customized so that the USB debugging option is ON by default?
If I can get into this baby then I didn't waste $100 :good:
If you can get into download mode, try using Odin to completely reflash the phone?

Nope no good, it doesn't get rid of the lock. Just comes right back to it. I've flashed stock at&t and stock bell rom multiple times.

I'm not sure that I can but ill look into it one more time. I'm currently trying to download NOVENADXLJ2 rom, it has a boot to recovery on the power menu. Hoping I can flash it somehow with odin!
Unzip the file. It will have an odin .tar file. Rhat goes into the PDA slot in odin. No checkmarks except reboot.
He got it brother...
He used kies to restore and unlock the screen.....g

Here it is again...just in case someone else's having the same issue
Why don't you give this a shot....
If you are willing to unroot and root again, here's what I've been doing to return to stock.
1 - Put phone in "Download Mode" - phone connected to PC
2 - Start Samsung Kies (make sure you have the latest.....)
3 - From Kies, click on tools then "Firmware Upgrade and Initialization"
4 - You will be prompted to enter ESN and model number (it is ok to pull the battery out to get ESN and Model - phone won't die with battery pulled at that point)
5 - And follow the prompts
The process does take some time. I have successfully done this many times with success.
Try it out to see if that might help you.
Glad it worked.
