At first, I apologize if i didn't see this kind of thread. I was looking for solution for a couple of weeks and didn't find anything that would help...
My Rezound is S-OFFed with 2.27 hboot and CWM recovery (the one befor CMW6.*****).
I dodn't know what made me try flashing CMW 6.*** but i did. Right after i flashed CMW 6, i went to "advanced" and rebooted recovery.
This is where weird thing happend: My phone just turend off. I tried to turn it on but i doesn't do anything.
While in Windows, if i connect my phone it shows up as QHSUSB_DLOAD
I tried:
pulling out/in the battery - didnt help
Connecting charger and turning the phone on without battery and holding vol - - didn't help
I also tried " [UNBRICK]Wanna unbrick your Rezound? (9/8, Episode VI, Return of The Zip)" and ended up with something like " device isn't found". I tried it in Urbundu 12.04

Can you boot into bootloader? Pull battery and put it back in and hold down power+vol down. If so cant you just flash a new recovery?
It sounds like your phone is stuck in Download Mode, that is used by the older RUU EXE files... you run it from your PC and just walk through the steps to install the firmware. Perhaps trying one of those, they can be downloaded here: http://mobile-overload.com/topic/53-ruu-htc-rezound-ruu-roundup/ but I think the newest EXE version you will get is 2.1.605.11 which is Gingerbread. It will return your phone to bone stock Gingerbread, S-ON, stock recovery, and all that good stuff, but it might work and get you running again.
It's the glitch that you get when you install cwm on a rezound, you can't charge your battery. Look it up on xda they have a solution.
That's the thing. It doesn't work at all.

First off id like to say thanks in advance to any replies and also apologize if this has been posted previously (i searched and could not find anything that was helpful) I lurked around these forums when i had my x1 and im hoping you guys can be as helpful for me as you are for everyone else. anyway onto the issue
I used the superboot method to root my ATT US Streak. My intentions were to update to 2.1 following the steps in the "eclair working on my u.s. unlocked streak!" thread (wont let me put a link since its my first post)
after using fastboot to root the phone will boot up and function fine but recovery and fastboot no longer work. i tried flashing Koush's custom recovery and other things that require fastboot and the terminal just says "sending..." nothing happens no errors or anything, the cmd prompt just sits there and i need to remove the battery to reboot the device.
i then downloaded the Rom Manager apk from the market and flashed the clockwork recovery from there (it said i did anyway). when i load the recovery from boot (volume keys + power and its the stock recovery) and chose option 2 to flash modaco custom rom or even the stock dell rom it just goes to a black screen and i once again need to remove the battery to reboot.
the phone itself is still functioning fine when it boots up and everything works the way it should other than the home, menu, and back button lights flash in random orders, thats just annoying though. again any help is appreciated
so what should i try next?
EDIT: woke up this morning and now the device will not turn on. i tried starting to fastboot and recovery but still nothing. plug it into my pc and i get the "found new hardware wizard" for a Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM.
first real brick? ha that would be my luck
EDIT 2: a kid just ran through my work, grabbed my phone and threw it on the ground. it screwed up the 30 pin connector on the phone and the charger. im going to hurt somebody. phone is booting again though... put sd card back in and still boots fine
SOLVED: Dont know the technical reasons behind it but i had to reinstall the drivers and switch usb ports for every fastboot and recovery procedure
removed SD card and its booting up normally. any thoughts?
Hey folks,
I'm having some issues with my ATT Atrix. The phone keeps rebooting at the "Rethink Possible" screen. I bought this phone off of somebody on CL. I actually had the phone make it past the att screen a couple times. It made it to the setup up Motoblur screen but when I clicked start it just skipped it and takes me to the "Emergency Calls Only" screen. However the phone would just restart eventually at this screen as well. When the screen timed out I could not get the screen to turn back on at this point unless I unplugged the USB cord and plugged it back in. When the phone was on the Emergency Calls screen, my computer did recognize the phone and it did launch the motorola website. While I had the phone at this screen it did say that it had to force close android.process.com. I am coming from a captivate with rooting and flashing roms so I am familiar with Android. I am just trying to figure out where the problem could be with my Atrix. I am hoping somebody can point me in the right direction. Thanks for your time!
Your best bet will be to SBF that back to stock. Have you tried that yet? If not search for RSD Lite and SBF in the forums. There are several links and guides.
Is it unlocked?
I am not sure if it is unlocked as I cannot get past the emergency call screen. However, I will search SBF and research that option of setting it back to stock. I know when I flashed roms on the Captivate I would enter into recovery mode. I see in the Atrix that I would have to use Fastboot? The only reason I am worried about flashing a rom is that the phone reboots on its own so I would not want to hard brick it if it rebooted during a flash.
If it's unlocked you should see the word "unlocked" in the upper left corner of the boot logo screen, unless it was unlocked then flashed back or fruitcake in which case it will not say unlocked.
You should not have issues flashing from recovery if you have enough juice in your battery, which you maybe don't if you have been letting it sit rebooting. The rebooting is more than likely caused by an issue with a kernel, ROM, etc. Think of recovery as being similar to the BIOS on a PC. You enter into BIOS before the OS boots, etc., and this is before all the hardware has initialized and drivers have loaded, so the problem causing the reboots should not exist at that time. I would definitely try flashing a different ROM, and also a stock kernel.
It never said unlocked when I got the phone to turn on. I am having trouble getting the phone to turn on this time. I have downloaded RSD Lite and the 4.5.91 .sbf file to flash. I am just having trouble getting the phone started. Are there any ways to force the phone on. When I press the power button the green LED stays lit but nothing comes on the screen. When I plug into the charger it shows the moto symbol then goes to the Battery charging screen. Im not sure if the battery is correct because it says BHX5 1500mAh on the battery. Thanks for your help guys!
Update: I can get the phone into Fastboot and then Android Recovery Mode when the phone is plugged into the wall charger. However when I connect the phone to the computer via USB it just shows the green led when the phone is powered on. Anyway I can get the phone to boot into Fastboot while connected to the computer via USB?
Bump. Any way to get the phone to turn on when plugged into the computer or anyone know why there would be an issue of the phone turning on when plugged into the wall charger but only showing the green led when plugged into the computer? The battery shows 100% charged. Thanks
Update: I got the phone into RSD mode and flashed the 4.5.91 sbf but the phone only goes to the Emergency Call Screen. Is there anything else that can be done?

Did you fastboot -w before flashing the sbf? (Guess you don't really need to when flashing a sbf)
What may also help is flashing the boot.img file from whatever ROM you are using via fastboot.
Don't know if this will help, but it solves an issue when flashing to a different ROM from CM7, so maybe will help for you.
I know this might sound dumb, but do you have a sim card installed? Also, try to boot into recovery and just do a factory reset. @CaelanT already pointed out that this should be unnecessary since you flashed an sbf but it wouldn't hurt to try.

EDIT: I reread the OP and realized he had already tried to bypass the start screen.
That is not the correct battery. That is actually a battery used for the Droid X/X2. It seems they have pulled a switch-a-roo on you. (Probably because the Atrix battery could be used as an "Extended" battery in the DX/DX2) Anyways, it should still work but you can find the correct battery online, it should be a BH6X and should have a capacity of 1880/1930mAH.

Thanks for the reply. I tried to get the phone into recovery mode. I get to the Exclamation Point screen but it gives me no options for a factory reset. I saw that you have to touch the lower right hand side of the screen, but this doesn't do anything for me.
As far as flashing the boot.img file for the rom that I used. I flashed the stock 4.5.91 motorola rom. How can I find boot.img and would I flash it using RSD?
Also would it help if I flashed a custom rom instead of the stock Motorola 2.3.4 rom?
Could the battery not being the BH6X rom be the issue for it not getting enough power to stay on by itself?
Thanks for the help guys, I really appreciate it!
No, the sim card was not installed during the flash. However, I did install the sim card afterwards but the phone boots up and goes to the big green battery charging screen and does not go any further. However when the sim card is not plugged in I can get the phone to go to the Emergency Call screen.

The following are the instructions for flashing the boot.img. this was the solution to bootloops when trying to restore to a different ROM after CM7, but as I said previously, you never know if it will help or not:
1.Open up the Zip file of your current Blur ROM (Ninja, CherryBlur, Alien, etc.)
2.extract the boot.img file and copy to the directory where your fastboot is.
3.Pull phone battery & reinsert
4.Power on phone and go straight to Fastboot mode (Power + Vol Down)
5.Type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" (exclude quotation marks)
6.Once flashed, reboot phone using "fastboot reboot"
Sorry, don't know how to extract the boot.img from a sbf. Did a quick search and couldn't find instructions. Not something I have done before. Maybe someone else can help with this. I don't even know if this will work, but anything is worth a shot when you are stuck.
<edit> Which CWM are you using?
You can flash Romracers via fastboot if you are not using it. This may help you get into recovery.
Update: I got the phone to recognize the sim card and make phone calls and get wifi active. But the phone still reboots by itself. I can use all the functions of the phone except it just reboots by itself. I got into the About phone section and it says
Android: 2.3.4
Kernel: [email protected] # 2
I can get into the Android Market as well as everything else. Could this be a hardware issue that causes the phone to reboot by itself within a minute or so?
Edit: I can get the vol up and down buttons to work while the phone is working but the power button is not responsive to let me power the phone off. Could a hardware issue with the power button be causing the constant reboot loop?
Update: I got the phone to function with the OS working just fine (phone calls, texts, emails, etc..) but it keeps restarting on its own. The power button still does not work however, could this be a hardware issue? Thanks
Hey guys, Today I just finished downgrading to HBOOT 1.4 and got up and running fine on TWRP 1.1.1 and ViperRom's new ICS build. I wasn't having any issues at all. I started reading about TWRP2 though, and felt like checking it out. So I downloaded GooManager and searched for TWRP and got openrecovery-twrp-2.1.3.blob. I touched it to download and it immediately went into recovery to install. However, as soon as it rebooted, it came up with TWRP 1.1.1's logo and a scrolling status bar. This lasted about 2 seconds and then the phone shut off. I left it as is hoping it would come back for about 10 min but nothing. I removed the battery and put it back in and tried to reboot. Booting to system and booting to recovery give zero response and ADB controls don't seem to recognize the device when plugged into USB. Can anybody help? TWRP2 doesn't seem to have a thread here and their site has limited resources for help.
thanks.
Can you boot into the bootloader (hold power and down on startup)?
no I cannot. Phone is completely unresponsive. I didn't think trying to flash a recovery would cause complete system failure.. wth
Just to be clear, before you call it a brick, did you remover battery for 10 seconds and then try to get to the bootloader. Hold down the volume first then the power button and keep holding both until the bootloader pops up. Just making sure...
yeah I did. Pulled the battery, left it out while I went and ate something, then plugged in the HTC charger and tried to reboot and nothing. Tried putting the battery back in and doing the same thing. I guess It's time to go to sprint and beg for mercy
Same thing happened to me. My phone is completely unresponsive after I tried to update to TWRP 2.1. I was on AOKP milestone 5a. The computer responds when I connect the USB, but the phone will not boot at all.
EDIT: Computer doesn't respond either. Think I'm headed to the nearest Sprint store ASAP.
Connect your device to your computer then go into your adb directory in cmd and type. "adb reboot-bootloader" (without the quotation marks)
Are you s-off ? And does the phone show up as qhusb_dload in device manager ? If it does it is bricked. If you still have s-on it can be fixed if you are s-off i am sorry to say you have to get a new phone. I have a phone now that is s-off and bricked and i cant recover it as of now but i am working on it, if i succeed i will post how to do it.
I would recommend trying to keep the bricked phone in case there is a way to unbrick eventually then you have another phone to play with. I just claimed my insurance and told them i dropped the phone in a porta-john at work and i wasn't about to fish it out. So they told me dont worry about sending the bricked phone in and i got my new one next day.
i was running Android revolution HD, i installed a different rom and put the phone to charge in the morning the phone had a black screen only and wasnt responsive, i took off the battery and booted to Hboot and tried to go into recovery but the recovery starts and stops then just turns off.. i cant go into recovery.. the phone is unlocked and rooted so its S-Off. i cant find any any threads that can help. any files i can flash? ive seen everywhere to download 4ext recovery img change it to PH85IMG.zip but i cant find the file anywhere. any ideas please im phoneless. i also tried the all in one program but it wont recognize my phone i installed the drivers too but nothing. it might be that the phone isnt in debugging mode. ive tried everything in the hboot menu. fastboot,recovery,factory reset, clear storage,image crc, but not simlock... please help

Remove your battery and replace it into tray after few minutes, then hold Power + Volume down buttons together to going to green boot screen, choose Recovery. It worked for me

Every time i do that it seems like recovery is starting but after 2 secs it turns off and trys to boot but theres no rom or the rom is corrupt, thats why i tought maybe re flashing the 4ext recovery might allow me to flash a new rom. is there any way to flash 4ext or cwd from the hboot?
So I rooted my HTC ONE S (villec2) today, and I wanted to flash a custom rom on it. I got a recovery (turned out to be a bad one, but it worked either way.... I noticed way too late it was made for HTC One M8) I got TWRP 2.7.1.0 and I got it working on my phone. I then backed up the system, and realized I messed up the recovery. In the meantime I got a CM 12.1 img on it and wiped the thing. The wipe removed the old Android system and the CM I downloaded was a bad download. If I go to recovery in the bootloader, it will just do the HTC white screen with "Entering Recovery" and the red warning logo but it won't get anywhere. It's just stuck there. So now, I'm stuck with a device that won't boot normally - just stuck on the white HTC screen, will boot into bootloader, and I want to know if there's a way of accessing the internal storage without being in the operating system. The worst thing is, there's no external SD Card, all just internal... Please god help me. I'm really stressing out about this since it's the only phone I have and if I lose it.... well I'm practically f-ed.... :crying: I know that I messed a few things up really badly and I'm not sure what state the phone is in.
Also just to add, the phone is barely loading up right now. I'm really scared since it's my only phone and it won't even boot normally right now. It's really acting strange, it was on 90% battery but now it might just be dead... i don't know.... someone please help
I honestly think I screwed it up.... All it does now is just a white flash / flicker when I hold the power button (both only power button and vol down) and that's it. I'm really disappointed right now but oh well.... Maybe just because the battery is not charged.... Also been looking around the other threads and looks like a lot of people had the same issue but with 0 replies...
hi friend

I have no way of trying the stock rom. I cannot access the phone itself because I deleted the OS. There's a weird thing, that if I plug the USB to the computer, it does the connect windows sound but the phone's internal storage is still not accessible.... So as it turns out I can get to the freaking bootloader but then it just turns off with a white flicker a second later.... I have no clue what to do :crying:
try to hook your device with windows and hold the Volume Down and Power
to see if it can detect it

Alright. I slept through the night and now I'm here trying to resolve this again. Status now, is that when I try to boot it up, it just shows a white flicker and won't turn on. no matter if i try to boot in bootloader or normally. The device doesn't appear to be charging when I plug it in because it doesn't show the LED light for charging. I think it's hard bricked. I tried other threads, showing bright light to the proximity sensor, but nothing happened.
//edit// - My bootloader was unlocked, and I was on S-ON (HTC ONE S, S3 villec2) that might change on your phone and might make the process different
So I fixed it. I will leave the tutorial for anyone in the future that might be having the same issue. If you "locked yourself out" of your system, eg. no OS, and broken recovery just plug it into the computer, try somehow getting into bootloader, go into fastboot and plug the usb cable to your computer so you're in Fastboot USB. Then you can flash a recovery on the phone using a fastboot command. I believe it's fastboot flash recovery _filename_. Just google that, there'll be plenty. Then you have the recovery and you're back on track. After that you can get the rom you wanted. Just don't make my mistake, and check if your device is exactly the same as the files you're downloading for it. I messed up there . Anyway, good luck everyone!
t
yea
Happy to hear that u have fixed your phone add "solved " to the title and add a fast tutorial for help purpose
