Title says it all. If pc hangs while flashing a rom, can it brick the phone?
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA Premium App
No it will not brick, as long as you can boot to download mode. Only way to brick is flashing incompatible bootloader or when you flash the recovery from a different phone.
This is discussed before btw.

Ok thanks. Sorry i didnt see another thread like these.

just to reassure you I pulled by phone usb jack halfway through flashing system. Booted to download mode again and flashed normally, no problems.
Ok then. Its a relieve for me. Since my pc is not high end and it hangs sometimes. I have two laptops though.

Hi guys I news help,
I installed AOKP Build 37 on my GSM HTC EVO 3D, as usual I did a full wipe for my data flashed the ROM then the GApps, removed the battery so I can go to fastboot and flash the Boot.IMG from my PC.
so here is the problem after I removed the battery the phone I couldn't open my phone and it had around 70% of charge. So I put my phone to charge it I put it for around 27 hours I try to turn it on nothing happens.

Anyways. When you connect your phone to the usb do you a red light or a red dim light in the top right of your phone?
and can you post the link to the rom you installed?

If its a bright light then it seems your not bricked and have the possibility to fix your phone.
What i would first do is try the command i gave you when you do have access to fastboot/adb
Okay, the problem is I can't access my bootloader if I did I would return to my stock or flashed the boot.IMG that's why I'm asking is there a way to turn on my phone or to access my bootloader in my case
Sent from my GT-P7500 using XDA Premium HD app
maybe the problem is in battery, can you find another to try, just to be sure...

I know that. And thats what im trying to tell you.
The command
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
will make your phone go into your bootloader without using the power + Volu down buttons.
but your saying you dont have access to the fastboot or adb files?
I actually thought of that but unfortunately I don't have any extra batteries but I will buy when today.
Just in case the problem wasn't with the battery what should I do??????

Flashing time it is.
Sorry for doublepost. When rooting phone i lost warranty right ? So what if i unrooted it and installed a stock rom ? I did that with my previous phone the s8500 wave that ran bada and it was accepted in the shop for repairing.
Would that be an option? And is there a tutorial on how to restore the gs2 to stock?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
you got that right. Make it "out of the box" like and they won't notice it.
Now the question is how i do that... i'll google the crap out of this but if someone can give directions all help is welcome.
Thak you.

Maybe I did leave it on, attempting to root this thing I don't know maybe. If I did could that be it? And if not could that be as well?
unfortunately...

Yes I have rebooted only for this image to appear now (see pic). If anyone in this community can explain what this even means I would be forever thankful.
foolish mistake
Yes it turns out I did not have debug mode on when attempting to root with superclick. So now what do I do? see 2nd pic to see what I mean.

Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Can you access the tablet using adb? Maybe logcat or other tools inside will help you to solve your problem.
From what you state, it might also be an hardware problem and it's just a coincedence that it happened after switching the governor.
If it is related - you can access the cpu governor options from shell.
If you get connected using adb, (adb shell), try to "su" or similar (maybe you're root when you connect - that depends on the way the root was applied...)
It should be around /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq , search for linux or android specific help on the files in there.
I wish you luck to resurect your device

I can enter my device with adb, it didn't reconize my touch , but i get a broken pipe error
