Hi, I was wondering if anyone can help me with my last problem. I recently started a different topic ( which seems dead
Link), and I have one problem after I have finally
gotten my phone in a usable state. It is unable to mount my /efs directory, or whatever. And while I don't know if they are directly connected,
things like my lock screen, holding my power button to get options like Flight Mode, Data Network, Restart, Etc., is gone, among the most
noticeable things. And I have tried screen lock to work, it doesn't. Holding my power button shuts my phone down (in the same amount of
time that holding it would normally bring up the options screen, as well). I would just like to get my phone in complete working order,
assuming that isn't to much to ask. Any help in getting past this final hurdle would be greatly appreciated. To see what I've done/my
progress, go here: Link. Currently, I
successfully have CF-Root on my phone, and my firmware is XXLPH. I've only had luck with 2 firmwares I believe. This one and one
other... Others make my screen black, except for my notifications tray.

So here's a peculiar incident:
I have a CDMA TP with a stock ROM and a few basic apps I gathered from these forums and others. I've had it for less than a week.
Tonite, I went to check my text messages. Suddenly, the screen went black and the phone stopped responding. After pressing the power button and fiddling with the keys, I pulled out the stylus and did a soft reset. No response. Confused by this, I tried again, but still nothing. I removed the battery, and turned the phone back on. It froze at the "Touch Pro" screen with the rom/radio/etc info at the bottom. After repeating this a few times I decided to do a hard reset. So, I turn the device on and perform the hard reset. By this point the TP is only turning on SOME TIMES, and I have to take the battery out and put it back in often just to get it to start successfully. So, I finally get the device to boot up and it starts to configure WinMo. Suddenly, while configuring, it freezes. Now I try to turn it back on, and nothing happens.
Basically the device is stuck like this, shifting between not turning on at all and turning on but freezing at the "Touch Pro" screen.
So, my question is, what the heck is going on here? Has anyone else had this problem, or does this sound familiar to anyone? Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated.
p.s. Yes, the battery is fully charged.

Time to take it in and get a new one.....
Same problem here phone started b not coming out of lock mode. Backlight is on but no display on screen (if i tilt the screen left and right i can see light coming from behind) did about 6 hard resets and still same problem. also power button works whenever it wants to. this phone sucks @ss, i want my mogul back. on a second note my replacement will be here on wednesday.
Touch Pro stock rom purchased back in nov when it came out
yeah, i've had the same problem, i found if i hit my phone on the back or side and then batter pull and hit the soft reset while off, not the power button to turn it back on, it comes back on with color on the screen not just blank black screen with backlight, this works mostly every time, but when it doesn't, i just hold the power button down and do battery pull and hit the power button and it works, its like its got a combo of things you have to do before it works.. weird
Boot Up
I have also had similar problems. I for some reason sometimes have to remove my SD card and boot up without it for some reason. Not all the time, but every once in a blue moon. Not too sure how that affects anything, but you may try that too.
well i started a thread here ***help*** because i kinda have the same problem.
i downloaded some cabs, nothing fancy but i had some problems with a theme i downloaded. when i went to deleted i couldnt..... to make a story short, i took it to the sprint store where they tried to do a master reset/ hard reset and it wont take it. it wont do a thing... they say some important files are missing...
the phone works but not the way it should... the time on the home screen wont show up. and some other small things...
dont know how this happened but i would like to know... im worried about new programs to the phone now. ( getting a new one)
still want to see if i can fix this one.

Have you tried re flashing the ROM?
it wasnt HTC's fault for your phone's not booting...thats what happens when u try to mess with the hardware too much and you dont know what your doing
Would you want to sell???
Reboot Brick HTC process
****DOn't take battery out after hard boot***
1.just watch videohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sk56olMkCtU and do what they do but dont take battery out. LEAVE phone STUCK on BOOT screen. Nothign else will move or work but you want phone just like that.
2. connect usb cable to active sync. (this may not link up but leave usb connected anyhow) Do not delete phone profile.
3.use rom like Download MightyROM6_Herman.exe avail at: http://www.lilrico.com/Mighty/mightyromblog/?p=454
4 although active sync is still attatched but may not be connecting. It will connect thru usb anyway when you run the rom software. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fV2I2WAFkg4&NR=1
This worked and kept phone from cutting on and off. and restored ROM. don't know about original htc boot. but your phone will work under this rom for now and you can go from there.
hey thanks plain ole dumb, it works now.
man I thought it was over.
thanks again
I search all over the internet and none address my issue.
I use my Gtab occasionally. Last week I turned on my tablet and it goes to the first screen with the three birds then move to the "Gtablet" screen and stays there. Tried several time to no avail. I finally did a hard reset (had to open the back), still the same thing. I then tried the recovery (ON button while holding Volume +) The three birds again shows up and the small message on the top left of the screen saying Recovery Key detected and stays there. Nothing else happens. All of the thread I saw always refers to the last option is to do the recovery mode. Well, my recovery mode does nothing. Anything else I can try?
Thanks for any help...
You need to nvflash. Please google "gtablet for dummies" website and follow directions.
good time to try JB

Since it appears you need to re-nflash back to BL1.2 I would think this would be a great time to try out one of the JB Roms. I would suggest Smooth Bean, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1900562.
I think some people issues with it are 1) not following install instructions, 2) related to Chrome and/or flash. I'm not a big fan of Chrome. Would prefer Opera Mobile but hadn't got flash to work yet with it but flash does work with the default browser. Also tried Firefox, flash didn't work there either. You will be surprises how fast it seems to be.
So I have two of my old Galaxy S2's which needed their charging port fixed. So after a very long time of collecting dust, I decided I'd fix them, and sell them on.
Now we run into a problem. Phone 1 is fine, I'll be able to do something with that since I can access recovery. Phone 2 is a major pain.
It is pattern locked, and for the life of me don't even remember using pattern lock, so who knows what the bloody pattern is. No data is enabled on the device is seems, so Google can't help me.
Also, seems USB debugging is off, because I can't get ADB to see the phone. This surprises me, because I always have it on.
Now the killer. I can't get into recovery. I've tried all sorts of button combinations, but it simply will not load it. There doesn't seem to be any download mode on it either.
Now, this phone has a custom ROM, so this trikes me as odd, but my brain seems to be telling me I may have had a problem with this phone and recovery in the past.
I'd really appreciate any help in getting into these phones so I can sell them.
Samsung have been about as useful as a wet sock, and Vodafone Australia, well, they're the other sock.
Hopefully someone can help me out.:good:
can you get it into downloading mode (home botton + volume down + power button)?

No, that's not working either.
Right, so I just opened the phone again. I have managed to break the volume rocker ribbon. At least now I can move towards a fix. Sorry to bother you all.
No download mode or recovery, no data = you're not fixing it without doing something drastic on the hardware side (as you've just found out).
ask if is there a way to do a factory reset from computer
Hello, l'm using a Pocketbook IQ 701 and for the past few days I've noticed that the power button stopped locking the device.
It boots up and gets to the lock screen, where I can freely lock and unlock the device, but when I unlock it the power button just doesn't lock it anymore ( although if I press and hold, it does bring up the power options such as shut down).
Upon looking at "wake_unlock" in "/sys/power" I get "KeyEvents PowerManagerService", yet "wake_lock" shows nothing, although I've noticed that if I make a copy of it in a different folder it suddenly shows "PowerManagerService".
while I have tried to replace the original file with the copied file, as soon as the copied file is in "/sys/power" it becomes blank.
I suspect that this issue though, is system related and not OEM related, as I've seen similar threads on the Internet, although, either there was no answer, the issue was a completely different issue, or the solution simply did not work.
Thank you in advance, and I hope to receive for a speedy answer.
In the end I just flashed the official rom and the problem disappeared.
I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X, which I started using around March. Lately, I have been facing an issue which has left me troubled a lot. My Note 4X seems to be in a bootloop.
Around two weeks ago, I was casually using my phone in college. I had put around 25 apps on download from Google playstore. Alongside, whatsapp was running. I usually take pics of my lectures, so when the teacher had written on the board, and was about to erase, I quickly attempted to go to the home screen, by clicking the home button ( middle button), so I could launch the camera app, and take the pic. But, the phone didn't go to the home screen, and stayed at the app being used. However clicking on the recent apps (the left button), the two running apps showed. However, as I didn't have much time, I did what came in my mind. Reboot the phone. Unfortunately, as soon as it booted back, the screen remained black.
Its been like this for two weeks now. Whenever I turn it on, It will show the Mi logo, then the Android logo simultaneously below it ( Like usual when it boots), but after that, the screen goes black. Touching the three buttons at the bottom of the phone make the back-lit underneath light up along with a vibration(Like usual). Clicking the touchscreen gives a vibration. If a sim card is put inside, and a call made to the inserted sim card's phone number, the phone starts ringing as usual, however, still with a black screen. Another major issue I experience other than the black screen, is that the top right of the phone becomes really really hot as time progresses( within minutes)(This never happened before), and the battery drains really fast too. I get freaked out because of this( I think it might explode or catch fire), so I quickly turn off the device, after some tinkering.
I have been trying to find a solution since the past two weeks. Hard pressing the Volume Up+ Start button takes me into MiRecovery 3.0, which offers 3 options, 1.Reboot, 2. Wipe Data, 3. Connect To MiSuite. Going into 2 gives the option " Wipe All data" only, and 3 is seemingly useless the MiSuite doesn't support new versions of Android. Hard pressing the Volume Down+Start button takes me to FastBoot. It should be noted, that in both MiRecovery 3.0, and Fastboot, the phone doesn't warm up really fast, as it does when booted normally, and rather remains cool even if left for quite sometime in these modes (approx 30 minutes atleast).
The main thing I'm trying to achieve is to backup the data on my phone, mainly the photos (lecture notes), and whatsapp data. The rest of the app-data isn't that much important, albeit if also savable, it would be a bonus.
I haven't tried flashing any ROMs, recovery, or anything else, as I'm afraid the data may be erased, and as I have never done anything like this before. Also, my phone isn't rooted, as I didn't feel the need for it to be.
Help is highly appreciated. I hope to be able to safely extract my data, and be able to start using my phone again.
Thanks to advance to all those who reply.
Guys?
