If you have access to computer make sure you have right one, then boot into bootloader and fastboot flash the correct one.

I think I may have turned this thing into a paper weight. It won't stay on long enogh for the computer to detect it to let me flash in adb

Take out the battery, put it back in, hold the volume down and power til you get the bootloader screen....

it did. must have been to low on battery. let it charge over night now I can get to hboot and cancel the update because it's the wrong kernel then i powers down to reboot after declining update then that's all the farther i can get...
Total panic attack... forgot about slipping the sd out a touch to get into recovery then deleting phimg. Sorry!
Next time this happens. Pull battery, dont power on, connect usb to pc and do "adb reboot recovery".

you can actually plug in a mouse into your phone, from what i understand. if you have the right adaptor. But it doesnt matter too much anyways, take your phone in and the sprint team can fix it for you, they will most likely flash the RUU if you are honest with them, or give you a new phone. I have never had problems with my store so far, if a phone is physicaly broken, as in the battery wont charge, the buttons dont work, the screen is broke, they give me a new phone or new battery, what ever is needed. and they tell me
your phone is rooted, so we couldnt run our normal diagnostics on it, but if you have any other problems let us know.
that is the BIGGEST reason i stay with sprint. kick ass customer support.
I have two evos and the other got stuck at the HTC boot screen where it says quietly brilliant. I didn't notice it was stuck since I had walked away and it overheated severely. I held the power to turn it off but from that point on I couldn't turn it on at all.
Any suggestions? Is it a lost cause?

Try plugging it in and letting it sit a while, let it cool down first, maybe the battery needs to recover, heat can damage the battery

what om4 said, it might just have been a heat issue...the same thing happens if your computer over heats, it will reboot/shutdown on its own to cool itself down
Thanks for your responses guys.... Unfortunately it still won't turn on, the charging light won't come on either after trying different chargers.
Is there a way to turn on the phone through ADB? I have never tried it but does anyone know if it's possible?
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Nope
Isn't it possible to boot thru fastboot using 'fastboot reboot system' ? Provided you can get into your hboot.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
If they said they could get to hboot but if you can't boot normally then you can't fastboot a reboot either
How would I get into hboot? When I plug it into my computer its still make noises and showing up not as the flash memory but something else

To get into hboot, power off, then hold volume down while pressing the power button. Then use volume to choose and power to select.

Yeah, if you plug in your phone to a computer (Linux is a bit better for this) do you get a new device discovery in Windows? Do you have some COM devices or Modems in your Device Manager in Windows?
You might be in the emergency download mode. There can be hope.
That's what I thought they were saying but then another post had me thinking I might be misunderstanding them
Yea it does exactly that when I plug it in, do you know what I should do?

I have an HTC Amaze.
It boots fine although I see no logo or anything until I have to press the power button to turn screen off and back on to see lockscreen.
Tried the AIO kit to unlock bootloader and all that jazz. I get nowhere, says everything is done and then nothing is different except on the first
reboot it shows a green circle with arrows then moves to a red traingle with an exclamation point in the middle.
I have tried to put the RUU on the EXTERNAL SD and boot into HBOOT. Guess what, HBOOT is NOT there somehow. I can hold the volume down button and the power button down for the whole Obama administration and still get no HBOOT, not sound, boot, or vibtration, I can press these buttons in any combination known to man and still get no HBOOT. The AIO kit cannot boot me into HBOOT either.
I have tried the unbrick project instructions using Linux and my phone is not recognizeable apparently becuase it is not bricked per say.
All I want is to unlock this bootloader and load a custom ROM to improve some things like EXTREME lag and horrible battery life.
I have completed the AIO kit STEP BY STEP, HTC DEV UNLOCK ID and ALL....... Does anyone have any solid firsthand experience with these issues? Is my screen simply not working? If that is the case can you let me know which button combinations are required to have this RUU read and loaded in HBOOT if it is simply from me not being able to see the HBOOT screen.

Do a 60-sec battery pull.
Then WITHOUT pushing ANY buttons (incl soft-keys/touching the screen), put it back together & charge it. Overnight. With an AC-plug adapter.

Hook it up to the computer and try installing hboot using adb
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda app-developers app
what he said! honestly bypass any program and do adb commands to see.
I'm a electronics tech. and I've noticed a problem like that before. one of which was water damaged which was shorting out 2 pins on the lcd connector.
The other would only enter bootloader when using adb only

So your phone is 100% charged?
Because there is an issue with the Amaze that causes the exact black-screen behavior you have, caused by a dead battery getting stuck in a deadlock-condition between the power-on routine & the charging routine.
Yes 100%. How do I install hboot using adb? Any step by step process I can follow? Thank you.
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda app-developers app
Jvamps, the water damage sounds like a possibility. It's like everything is perfect but I just can't see hboot. When I boot normally I don't see anything until I notice the soft key bleedthrough then I press the power key to turn off screen and press it again and voila the lock screen. I don't see the boot screen at all.

Hi everybody.
I was playing with my i777 and flashed a gallery file (just 1 apk) via CWM. It booted fine but crashed when using the camera and then rebooted. After reboot, it turned off and now I cannot turn it on again.
I tried download mode by removing battery, holding the two volume buttons and connecting to USB. That did nothing. I also tried USB jig which also did nothing. Connecting the phone to AC power source to see if at least the battery charging screen will show up also does nothing.
So the screen remains black with the soft buttons not lighting up. My phone is hard bricked from the looks of it. So my question is will sending this to MobileTechVideos for JTAG have a highly likelihood for unbricking or should I save the $50 and USPS charges and just buy a Nexus 4? I mean if they don't fix it, I will need a new phone anyway, heck I don't even have a spare phone.
Previous ROM was CM 10.1 03062013 nightly.
I don't even understand how that could have resulted in a brick...

I don't either but like I mentioned above. It rebooted ok after CWM flash then hung then android rebooted. It crashed then won't respond to jig, USB, power cable.
I failed to mention that I am afraid that this is an EMMC failure and that they might not be able to fix it and I would be wasting $50.
You say you tried Download mode, but made no mention of RECOVERY. If you can get there you're not bricked.

Hey guys,
i bought a HTC Hero to fix, it came today and has a weird problem;
The last owner rooted it and flashed CM7, but it won't boot, just stays at the Hero screen, after a few battery pulls it does boot into Safe Mode where it can be used to a limited amount
The best bit is it won't reboot into recovery, and when i try the key combo for fastboot it shows up then after a second reboots the phone
I don't know if any of you have seen this before, i'm gonna try some stuff this afternoon to get it running again, i just wondered if you guys have any ideas about whats happened to it!
Update: RUUd it back to stock 2.1
Only boots into safe mode though, and still no sign of a recovery mode

Hi There,
have you got adb in safe mode? If so do "adb reboot recovery" that should see you right.... although whether it stays in recovery is another matter ... it doesn't sound too happy with itself!

I could literally only boot into safe mode, adb commands would just restart it into normal booting where it would no boot and just turned off
