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 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
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.
Greetings reader. I'm new to the forum but have been viewing threads every now and then, so after having read plenty of times that people should search before posting. I have searched and didn't find what I was looking for, so that's why you can read this now ;p.
4 days ago when I was trying to browse the web in college I wasn't able to connect to the wifi network or even open the wifi settings, so I reset my phone only to find the problem persisting. As if something locked me out of the wifi settings.
I'm perfectly able to access any of the other settings, so I think it's kinda weird.
Shortly after I realised I couldn't get to the wifi anymore my phone started to reboot itself automatically. Ever since that first reboot it just keeps rebooting at the same pace over and over again until I either power it off or until the battery dies.
The phone also get's unusually hot now. Not like, super hot, but definitely hotter than any other time I can remember.
I also get error messages since the problems started saying: 'Process system is not responding'. I then get the option to either force close it or wait. Neither seem to do much if anything at all other than taking away the error message. Sounds kinda critical if you'd ask me.
But so after all these symptoms started to appear I figured I'd just do a factory reset and be done with it, but every time I go into the factory reset settings, I put in my lock screen pattern and then at the last step (pressing the Erase all data button) it just does nothing.
I can touch the button and it does give the animation that it is being pressed, but it just doesn't do anything.
The phone doesn't freeze though, I can still navigate after pressing the button only to see it reboot again shortly after.
After that I tried to flash the rom, but for some reason my PC refuses to show my phone's internal memory in my pcor any sign of my phone's connection at all.
I haven't tried it on any other pc yet, so it might just be my pc, though I doubt it is since it was perfectly able to recognize it shortly before all this started.
The device hasn't endured any shocks lately or expsure to water or whatever, so I think that's ruled out as well.
I am running the stock rom, 2.3 Gingerbread I believe, and the warranty is already way over date (I think. I'll have to check that).
Any suggestions as on how to determine what could be causing this, or how to fix it? Because I really don't want to buy a new phone xD.

Since you've not modified your Sola in any way.
Give this official method a try.

I purchased a note 4 as a fun project, it has a cracked top glass only around the upper camera, I figured once I reset it, was going to proceed with glass replacement.
I put it aside, now its been a few weeks, so I hope I get the this in order of events.
While I am not expert, I am not a newberry either, but have exhausted my knowledge and searched this forum over, but maybe not using the correct search keyword.
I believe it is complete stock, but has a passcode and/or finger print lockout, so unsure. Still has all the previous user's settings & files.
It boots fine to lock screen. I can navigate to make an emergency call, all screen, volume buttons work, etc.
I simply want to wipe it through the normal stock recovery, but the normal key power+up+home combo is not working, the phone simply boots straight to lock screen every time.
Download mode is also not accessible either. power+down+home, same thing - boots and straight to lock screen.
Every combo of pressing power, volume or home get me to the same spot. Its as though the buttons do not work until it is booted up to lock screen.
I figured I would craft up a 300K usb jig to force download- still no go, same issue - boots straight to lock screen. Even tried variable resistor values, still no go.
I finally was able to get to download mode using Samsung 300K tool program - but even then, the phone will only initiate download mode if I click "connect" at just the right time during bootup.
So I downloaded the appropriate 6.0 android from SamMobile, loaded it via Odin successfully, the download finished, phone rebooted, and continued with android setup ( the screen where android initializes apps i.e 1/3xx, 2/3xx, etc and runs through 200, 300 or how many apps are installed, it takes awhile), so I walked away to let it finish.
I come back - its on the same dang lock screen.
Now I have read that one workaround is to pull the battery after some point to stop the phone from booting, then enter recovery and clear cache/ dalvik.
So I tried that, Odin, download, once phone reboots and vibrates, pull battery - but as stated, still not able to enter recovery.
USB debugging does not appear to be enabled, so unable to try that route either.
At a dead end. Anybody have a suggestion to get this device reset to factory.
I will even take a verbal beating :laugh:
Would love to even get TWRP, but thats a pipe dream at this point.
jammer
Hey all
I bricked my ulefone power 3s yesterday. Got bootloop (always reseted after 5 seconds) and could never go into recovery mode. This is "fixed". But now I face some mystical ****..
- Phone in a bootloop. Could not enter any other mode.
- Connection on pc always came and went due to the constant resetting every 5 seconds.
- Used Smartphone flash tool: Auto format flash and format whole flash. Took 3 seconds and Tool said success
- Phone didnt boot at all now. Black screen. No vibration when trying to power on. Nothing. Was able to connect to pc and keep the connection however
- Flashed official rom.
- "Phone finally boots..."
But.. I've never seen something like this
From boot to android menu, the screen is COMPLETLY distorted.
I dont know what to do anymore. What the hell is going on? The screen worked perfectly fine before. Even during boot loop. I didnt crack the screen. Nothing happened to the display physically.. Its literally before and after in terms of time it took.
I can still scroll down and up normally (but laggy) use functions etc. Its just that the screen is completly ****ed up. Im completly out of ideas.. Reflashing doesnt work. Problem persists.
Theres also this weird chinese text and key on the upper right corner. No idea what it means and never had it before.
See pictures...
