Hello everyone,
I dont know if there is anyone who can help me out, as I've seen quite a few posts about this subject already.. but none worked for me.
What happened: Last night when I set my alarm I got an update from Nokia and I accepted the install, when the phone rebooted it was spinning gyros and then the sad face.
What I've tried: Hard Reset(Volume Down + Power + Camera), Soft Reset(Volume Down + Power) - tried a few tricks where I had to connect the phone to my PC but I had no luck there as my phone does not seem to want to make contact with my pc.
I've made a small video where I demonstrated the resets and all. notice the weird line at ~0.12. Here an image. This is not just on the film it happens pretty often.

Use Nokia Care Suite recovery option. It'll re-flash the latest ROM for your phone.

But I cant seem to be able to make contact with my PC, it can only charge up, when its "charged"(minimum) it gets back to the spinning gears :/
Or I just dont understand how to connect it or something.. just the regular way right? MiniUSB to USB port?

Hello all,
I'm new here, have read lots of the information available, but came here looking for an answer that I haven't found yet.
Situation is the following.
I got this Qtek2020 (or XDA II) from my dad who used it for his work. The reason he stopped using it is because the "phone" function itself is kind off acting weird.
Sometimes it is just nog possible to get into phone mode, neither of the two methods make te device display the dial pad...
- hitting the green button
- going Start-> phone
(It's kind off like a non responding program in windows when you want to execute it)
To make things clear, the phone works fine if we go to contacts and then choose the option to call the contact.
The question is, does this problem seem familiar and is there a way to fix it by for example putting a new rom on the device?
Any help or input about this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
I think the HARD RESET should help . After a long... long work configuration data and other settings going to be ... melted . If U don't store on devise impotrant data just remove the battery for about 20 mins .
ok. so i flashed my fuze to energy rom 1.5 final yesterday and it was working fine and dandy. so today i was doing the usual on the phone, msn messenger, internet, etc. i was experiencing some slow down, so i figured i would soft reset the phone to get it up and running again . once i did the reset, however, it it just got stuck at the white world att screen. it doesn't run anymore. its on the white ATT world phone page, and is stuck there. somebody help. what should i do? i tried connecting to mobile device center but it's not detecting the connection to the phone.

Did you try to put the phone in bootloader mode ? Maybe could give it a try (reset and vol down) and try flashing a new rom.
Had a similar problem and freaked cuz thought I had a 3 day old Bricked Fuze. Should be no worries. Just hold down the Down volume button and also the Center button while sticking the stylus in the reset button. Should come up with the tri color screen. Do what it says to restore. Just to let you know anything that you had saved on the phone would be forever lost. IMO a very small sacrifice to get my phone back.

I guess you should have posted this on the ROMs thread, in case it's a ROM bug, but if the suggestions above don't work for you, you might have a bad flash. Try reflashing and make sure you hard reset again right at the "tap the screen to setup device" screen. And just to try to make it as safe as possible, try removing the SD card, you never know.......
Hello,
About two months ago I factory resetted and fully recharged my Acer Liquid MT.
Didn't use it for quite a while, but recently I wanted to but apparently the battery was empty meanwhile.
Charged it for hours but it didn't go on anymore (tried most basic stuff: changing battery, reset button etc)
Didn't show 'any sign of life' however. No screen, no sound, nothing at all.
Yesterday I did hold the Power Button and both Volume Buttons for a few seconds and it quickly vibrated a few times + one (normal) vibrate afterwards.
I think it isn't completely bricked since it did vibrate.
However, how am I going to be able to get this thing working again?
Many thanks in advance!
PS: Rooted, no custom ROM.
Edit
Forgot to mention, but my PC doesn't detect the phone anymore when connected to USB ...
i'm sorry...
it sounds your phone is bricked... i don't know how u could fix it

There is a liquid metal forum on modaco.com, maybe you should look there. If it was working before, maybe it fell down once or got some hardware fault? 3 vibrations were SD download mode AFAIK

No help from there really ...
Well it didn't fell down, it was fully charged & working, until I tried it later on
Ok, keep device manager opened, connect phone and power on with all the key combo's mentioned here and tell me what happens in device manager: what device is popping up etc.

Thanks for your interest in my problem.
The phone doesn't respond to any of the commands anymore.
Also, what do you mean with 'device manager' exactly?

It needs good charging as the battery has drained completely and will take time , may be couple of days. If it doesn't fix the problem then take it to a mobile shop and ask them to power charge it. It will fix the problem. I had the same issue with this phone...
I hope it helps...

Or just hit the Windows Key (next to Alt by the Spacebar) + the letter R together then type : devmgmt.msc and hit enter.
When the Device Manager is open and you plug in the device, you should see it blink out for a sec and reload and show you the device - probably will see a yellow warning symbol next to it - if so that means the PC sees it, just not loading the correct driver.
Hey guys.
I'm hoping you can shed a little light here as i'm starting to get frustrated.. Now i've seen various similar threads along the same lines so it's obviously a common problem and anyone who's offered a suggestion to the fix on other threads, i've tried to no avail..
I've had a DHD prior to this and done the whole rooting/ROM'ing thing regularly so quite used to procedures and what to do, but that was slightly different as i did it via the advanced hack kit.. This phone doesn't seem as straightforward to do. But about 3 weeks ago i bit the bullet and unlocked my phone with the intention of rooting and ROM'ing soon after.. Everything went well and the phone has been working perfectly, no issues at all and i've activated the developer option aswell and it's USB debugged box is ticked...
However, a couple of days ago i tried plugging it in to the laptop to transfer some music onto it, but both the two USB 2.0 ports on the right don't recognise it, i get the USB device not recognised message, anything else works fine in them, the only remaining port, a USB 3.0 on the left sees the phone and does allow me to access it, sometimes i can see everything straight away, sometimes i get a blank box and have to wait and the green bar takes ages to load along the bar at the top.. I've even had what appeared to be arabic symbols at one point where it should say Internal storage.. That confused me very much!! But now it won't let me transfer anything other than a single image file to the root. I did this as a test.. It transferred it straight away with no problems, but if i try adding anything else after that, it just hangs on the copying dialog box and either i have to close it or it does it for me a couple of minutes later with the "can't copy file" and "skip this file" options.. I've also tried it on the home computer which works fine but still leaves me with the same problem. Both are Win7 64bit.
I've uninstalled everything HTC from my laptop, uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers supplied in the fastboot folder which i was told to download for the unlocking process.. Now, i don't want to have to download HTC Sync as i don't want to access my phone via that, i'd rather just use file explorer and ditch the bloatware.. I'm not sure if i'm running the correct drivers and this is the problem, but i can't seem to find them anywhere.. P.S. I'm in the UK so this is the international version..
Any help would be great as i'm tearing my hair out... I know it's probably something simple but it's refusing to work..
Hey i hope this helps

Olrite so i guess you are dealing with the same i dealt with a while ago when i was on cayanogen mod 11 on my HTC one M7 International ... there are many alternatives to transfer stuff from phone to Laptop but first lets talk about the normal one
Method 1 which you should try is ....
* Download the HTC sync manager .. its ok if you dont wanna use it to transfer data .. just install it ...
* ok so now the important one .. make sure you have window media player installed on your computer ....
okay so why windows media player ??
Well it contains all the MTP drivers you need to connect your phone to your pc ...
* you can restart your system now .. (Optional)
* now connect your device with debugging on ... grab the notification bar click on USB related notification .. and choose MTP or something like that ...i mean don't choose HTC sync manger .. choose the other one
* Now if everything went well you will se your storage in My computer ... and in Windows media player too...
Method 2....
Well if nothing works then download an app called Air Droid ...
it have some nice functionality ...
you will get to know how to use it after installing it ...
by chance if the local link given in the app does not works make a hotspot .. connect your computer to it and open a browser like chrome .. and go to 192.168.1.1:8888
Note : port 8888 is pre configured in the app so if you changed it .. use the dirrent port you used ..
If you are not laptop is not connected with your phone's hotspot then your phone and computer should be on the same network ..
Good luck ... hit thanks if it works just to let me know

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to run through the options.. I really appreciate that.. Unfortunately it seems nothing in terms of transfer via USB works (at least with this cable, it's the only one i have so can't try another at this point) on this phone anymore, i don't know why the sudden glitches, it's been working fine since i've had it but just decided to stop connecting this last couple of days, so whether that's down to drivers or the cable being dodgy etc i have no idea, but the Air droid app works beautifully and i can now transfer anything and everything, it has such a great UI too so thank you for pointing me in the direction of that.. Without it, and you, i'd still be stuck.. So i guess i no longer need to worry about cables or drivers anymore so thanks again!
Pleasure

Hit the home button 3 times to off universal switch mode
I tried pressing the home button, but it is not working for me. Maybe the nova launcher intercepts the home button. Ahhh.. I don't want to format my phone. I also tried rebooting it, now I am locked out of my phone..
Update: I found the solution. Just use an OTG and Connect a mouse to disable the feature..
I had the same issue @Keitri
tried all solution like soft rest and run it in safe mode, and run recovery mode and wipe cache partition but no success
could you help me inn the problem and explain how did you overcome the issue?
thanks

Sorry for the late reply. Just connect a usb mouse using the OTG cable. From there you can disable the universal switch.
it works with OTG cable + mouse
