SOLVED
Hi all!
So I download the Beatmod rom, installed but forgot to clear cache. I made a new backup and the rom installed.
Upon the rom loading, it crashes when it gets to the unlock screen and reboots. I figured I'd just go back into the recovery menu and restore the backup I'd just made.
Both the volume buttons and the power button that are used to scroll and select are unresponsive (though they're not faulty otherwise I wouldn't be able to boot into recovery in the first place) and so I can't install the backup rom!
Has anyone any ideas?
I'm using the DHD
Thanks
Fixed this simply by removing the SD card and sim. Booted with vol down and power and was then able to scroll to Recovery. After selecting I put the cards back in No idea why this would help but it did! The moral of the story is don't be a moron.

ALRIGHTY so what you need to do is turn your phone off completely, if this requires a battery pull, that take out the battery and put it back in. Then hold the volume down button, and the power button, hold them until your phone starts, then use the volume buttons to scroll down to recovery, this reboot your device into recovery mode, then choose reset phone/factory default. Let it run, then, mount disk drive in recovery, download this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1191936 place it on your SD card, then install zip from sdcard, that should flash, the new ROM onto the phone, and you should be able to boot let me know if you have any questions.
thank and nid one more help

My tablet is stuck on the "N" in tap n tap . I have the stock rom. Just out of the blue this happened. I can hold down the power button to turn off but the tablet just does not boot past the "N". After amybe 3 minutes it loops to the TapNTap screen and then the "N" again. I do have CWM installed but otherwise it is stock. I ahte to loose all my data and apps and have to NV Flash again. ANyway to fix this without NVFlash ?
try booting into clockwork mod, clear cache. then install zip from sd card. find your update.zip and let it re-install. you shouldn't lose all your apps.
if that doesn't work, you might have to go the nv flash route. but, then you might as well flash one of the other custom roms as it totally changes the tablet for the better.
Thank you, will give it a try. Much appreciated.
Hey guys, I have a Star A2000 with Froyo rooted. While I was trying to modify my original status bar, the phone blocked and I had to reboot it. I rebooted it but for over one hour it's loading whithout booting into the homescreen. I tryed with the factory reset but nothing. I can't load any rom from Linux, and so I can't fully on the device. Any suggestion? I want to bring back everything! Anybody knows how I can do so? Without the flashing cable is it possible to restore or put back the original system and settings?
recovery menu
Turn off the phone
press vol up and power button in the same time
that will bring you to the recovery menu - press home key to see options
navigate trough options with vol up and down and meniu
take care - reset to factory my wipe your imei off. if you are lucky this might not happen
also read here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Chinese_Clones_MTK6516
I've tried this way all the time but it seems to don't work
Is there not an update.zip in other to install the original rom? Because I'm not with the flashing cable so I can't use it to flash. Is there any other way I can do it?
If you cant access the recovery by using power button + volume up key at the same time when turning on the phone then the recovery partition is not working (should show up with android ! screen or custom recovery) - If you cant boot in to the recovery menu or the system partition containing the OS you have likely bricked your phone, the only chance you may have in my opinion is a factory reset - which you say has failed or connect usb while phone is booting and hope you can get an ADB connection (which is possible due to a bug but only seems to work intermittantly - I have managed to fix a brick via this stroke of luck before)
Having a backup as well as a working recovery or system partition is the key to playing with your phone - one partition should always be working to restore the other when or if it fails.

Hi.
related with CWM I also have a weird issue.
My wife's old A2000 is now in my hands to play with it. The phone was virgin (stock rom no rooted).
I rooted the phone and installed cwm/rom manager.
The weird issue is:
1) If I click in Rom Manager option " Reboot into CWM" the phone reboot in CWM with all options working including rom backup.
2) starting with th phone off I press the keys power + vol.up Iget not the CWM but the "fatory Mode" green menu with 6 options (Full test, Test Report, Clear flash, version and Reboot).
3) pressing power + vol.down it simply boot normay the system.
What can be wrong with this "ex-virgin" A2000?
So I rooted my phone and was thinking I would flash to CM7. I decided to backup using Titanium Backup. I decided, stupidly, to "move to SD card" all my apps that aren't system apps. Now my phone keeps booting up, scanning for media and then rebooting constantly. What should I do?
Thanks for any help!!!

boot into recovery (phone off, hold vol up vol down and power until galaxy screen comes on, then release power until recovery comes up), wipe data/factory reset, and then flash whatever you want from there. you will have to re-install your apps (either fresh from the market or with titanium again, if you still have them on your phone).

Well that works, I'm in CWM but now when I try to click the wipe data/factory reset (using the power button right) it just highlights the background icon and everything else disappears.
Nevermind, home button is the correct way to do it. Thanks for the help!

Hello Good People,
My Z Ultra arrived and it was already rooted from the previous owner.
I booted up into TWRP and couldn’t do a backup because it would not display completely on the screen, so I couldn’t select an features.
I had to reboot the device by holding the power button and the volume up key.
Sadly I can no longer access recovery.
I have holding the volume up button will reboot but it simply takes me to the desktop(normal boot)
I have rooted all my devices but this Z Ultra seems a bit more complicated than others.
Can some please walk me through the steps of exactly what files are needed to get me recovery back.
Also I have the TWRP Manager.app, can I choose a file can do it that way? if so which file name do I pick from the long list?
T.I.A.
I thought I resolved my issue by downloading:
ZU-lockeddualrecovery2.7.154-BETA.installer.zip
Option 1
And it reinstalled TWRP!
Device rebooted into TWRP, I created a background and rebooted the device.
Now I cannot boot/reboot into Recovery again;(
Someone said to press the up/down button a couple of times when you see the pink LED. I dont get a pink LED it goes straight to green.
Can someone please tell me what to do?
T.I.A.
The recovery may still be installed.
Turn off the device, when you see the Sony logo and the green light, hold the "volume up" button.
You should boot to recovery.
Another option is to install Xposed and the Wanam module. Then activate the Power Options menu, which allows you to reboot to recovery.
Thanks for the response.
I was able to get into recovery, and do a backup.
After the backup the phone will not reboot. It has been hours now and no button combo will get it to boot up
Need serious help please
Did you back up your TA initially? You might need to reflash to stock and start again using flashtool and the necessary ftf file.
I would recommended this. It was what helped me start off on my XZU.: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2569904

Yes, got it resolved.
It must have been a battery related issue during the flashing.
In the end combined with a hard reset got the device back up and running.
I lost my root and everything so now I need to locate a ROM for this Sony version.
Thanks!
Ndrutil on the Play Store is an easy way to boot from the rom into recovery also..
