Hi, im new to this forum, so sorry if this is in the wrong section.
Basically i would like some advice on my HOX, i have had cyanogenmod installed for the past 8 months or so and all was working fine, then recently i have been getting loads of messages "so and so has stopped working". Mainly google applications (allthough i had not tampered with GAPPS atall). Then, my phone switched off. For no reason, it will not turn back on. I have tried all the usual combinations of key's, i carn't get it to boot into bootloader or anything.
When i plug it into the pc, i can get it to recognise the device but as either a "unknown device" or "apx", i havent really got any idea what the "apx" thing is all about? or if i can use that to somehow install drivers so the device can be recognised?
Please if anyone can shed light on this, that would be great, even if its only so i can get into bootloader or so ADB will recognise it, i can work it from there.
Thanks!

Hey all,
Well i know i m a newbie here, but i did all my searching and tried everything, but nothing will work. I flashed WM6 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=367019) and all was working fine. I was simply adjusting a few things on the phone when it required me to restart. I restarted the phone and now it will go to the slash screen, and the windows circle thing will start spinning to load, then it basically dies, the screen just fades to white.
I have since then tried two methods of getting it fix, but since my computer wont recognize the phone ( i have vista and media center), I cant run RUU, i get code 266.
Is there anyone that has a solution to this? I can get my phone into bootloader mode.
Please help me!

By the way, the phone is CID-Locked....is their a way to CID-unlock it while in Bootloader mode? it is a G4
I got it fixed!
Now if it can just get deleted....
So I have the tab 10.1, rooted with clockwork mod. I did a system update through settings-about-software update. It took a couple of hours, powered off. Now it won't power back on. Can't get to recovery or anything. The only time I can even get an image on the screen is if I have it charging for about a half an hour it will show the "charging screen" little android dude and the battery. Have I bricked the device? or is there anything I can do. I kinda need this fixed asap. Mom has ALS and this is her only way to communicate with us.
Hard bricking a device usually means that it won't even respond to charging. Maybe do a search and figure out what your options are. I'm not too familiar with this particular tablet but I know there are many useful toolkits out there for many devices and one may help you.
Can you get into download mode?
Would this help?

If you can get into download mode and your computer is able to detect your tablet you can go ahead and follow the video to flash stock ROM and bootloader.
Doesn't work. Gave me an error msg about md5 sum not working. I used all the files provided too. Now another thing is that i CAN get into clockwork recovery mode too, but i forgot to create a backup of my stock. Is there any way i can get access to the "sdcard" so I can flash through that?
Never mind that last post, It worked. I just downloaded it. Worked like a charm. Thanks for the help
Glad to hear it

Hello everybody,
I am new here, but after many searches I found out that this forum can be quite useful. Unfortunately I couldn't find the answer to my problem. Here you go, I start very well for my first thread:
I just got a HTC one M7 international version GSM from a friend, very nice phone and it was already rooted and had Trickdroid installed on it. I started to talk to my friend and he told me I should install KIt Kat on the phone... and from there it went all wrong...
I tried to install a KIT KAT rom I found online, it didn't work and the phone wouldn't start anymore, I would just have access to recovery mode (CWM is installed) and fastboot/bootloader. From there, the phone wasn't recognized anymore by my pc when connected to USB. I then used a mini USB cable to connect a USB key with different .zip file to load them to the phone.
After many attemps, one file finally worked (all the other would abort installation), it was insertcoin M7 kustomizer... I know I should have had reloaded Trickdroid 11.0.0 on it, but it was taking ages to download and went the fast way... which was a really bad decision I guess.
After the installation of insertcoin, the phone rebooted and... rebooted...and keeps rebooting to the HTC white screen (with the red warning: this build is for...)... it goes on and on...
Only thing I can do is hold the volume down key when it reboots and then it takes me to fastboot/bootloader. From there when I try to go to recovery mode it goes to recovery mode for half a second and reboot directly to the white HTC screen over and over again....
Also, USB device is not recognized (but strange, HTC sync manager starts even though it tells me no phone is connected).
Now I have the Trickdroid 11 file ready (1.1GB) but there is no way to install it on the phone... I really don't see how to do it anymore, did I really screw up big time and my phone is more or less a dead weight?
I am going to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia at the end of the week, maybe someone will be able to find a solution for me...
I shouldn't have touched a phone that was working very well....I know...
Nobody? So my HTC one is dead?
Is the all in one tool going to help? I installed it but since my phone is not recognized by the computer (windows 8.1) when connected via USB, I don't seem to be able to do anything...

This is all if you can find a way to get files to your phone...
I'm not sure which recovery you have but when upgrading from Android 4.2.2, and 4.3 the recovery you are using needs to be updated to the most current version. For example if you are running TWRP recovery you need to be running TWRP 2.6.3.3 for everything to run smoothly. In order to do this though you will need to download your original ROM (No matter how long it takes). Then go google play store and download goo.im and update you recovery with openrecoveryscript and update from there and you should be fine. I would also like to note that it's fully recommended that when you flash 4.4 KK you do a full wipe. This means userdata/cache/dalvik cache wipe, otherwise you will run into problems. Let me know if I missed anything or if you have anymore questions!
Thank you, but unfortunately I still couldn't find a way to access the files on the phone, no matter what I do. The phone starts by itself to the HTC white screen when I connect it to the main to charge it... I can only access fastboot/bootloader... I feel useless...
I feel your pain

After my htc one freezing on the 'quietly trickdroid' loading screen my phone will now not turn on, AT ALL! I think it's screwed : S
I just arrived in Kuala Lumpur and took it to a little shop, they told me they will fix it for me by tomorrow for 50USD... I'll let you know tomorrow if they managed to make the magic happen. I think they would reinstall stock, but that's fine with me, much better than a bricked "rooted" phone. It will take me a while before I start to screw up with a phone again...
Well i have been looking all over for help with my phone. I have figured out that i tried to flash a rom without unlocking my bootloader. Well im running windows 8.1 and for some reason i couldnt get my computer to recognize the phone at all. After using 3 or 4 different guides i gave up for a few days so not to get too aggrivated. I mean its my own fault but my back up phone sucks lol. So i borrowed my wifes laptop running win 7. I Followed this guide androidforums.com/optimus-l9-all-things-root/807569-guide-security-error-fix.html. For the first time since i started trying to solve my issue everything seemed to work got the s/w screen to appear in reverse and using the cmd prompt that says wiating for device then starting the .bat file from the download it says on the bat cmd prompt that everything worked. well at the bottom its says done then comes up with C:\fastboot\yours. i have been browsing google but i havent been able to find what i am supossed to do with the yours file. i tried putting a kdz file into the file location and running it from that but no luck. after a few min the phone auto reboots and comes back with the security error screen and not the backwards one. i have tried doing the hard reset at the point but no luck. if someone could please help with what i need to do with the fastboot/yours area that would be awesome. Or at least point me in the right direction cuz google isnt wanting to be my friend with the searches.

Well i have tried several times now with using my wifes windows 7 laptop. i can get everything to work with the screen coming up backwards and in the command prompts it says that the fastboot is done then loads the command fastboot/yours which with the file i downloaded that file was empty. really unsure on what i need to do at this point. from the guides i have read it seems that im at like a step or 2 from getting the phone to work but after 30 seconds while still plugged in it reboots and loads the secruity error screen. from what i have read i should be able to do a factory reset by holding the volume and home button and then pressing the power for 3 seconds but it just reboots into the error. any help would be much appreciated i really dont want to have to buy a new phone.
Seems like that guide is more for when flashing a recovery on the locked bootloader and things go wrong. It was suggested a few posts down on the first page of that guide that if your problem happened when you were trying to flash a rom you might want to follow this : http://androidforums.com/optimus-l9-all-things-root/792689-guide-unbrick-manual-update-updated.html or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2085344 (the xda one seems more complete) .
sigh
Well im still stuck on the security error screen. i got the phone to boot into the backwards fastboot screen 1 time and cant remember how to do it again. i can boot into the s/w upgrade mode. if i go to use the lg support tool being that im in the united stats my options is upgrade recovery or help. well if i go to upgrade recovery im told that my phone has the latest upgrade already. if i try and use the moduptest that come in a lot of the unbricking guides it makes me turn the internet back on even with having hte shttps and everything else that is listed in the various folders. i only have the omap44 on my device manager 1 time but there is also 2 lg mobile modems. im thinking my issue lies with the fact thta i dont have the adb file for the device manager. i have donwloaded and uninstalled various times but still no luck. i dont remeber how i got the phone to the backwards fastboot but i remember i was following a guide and the op had to open one file and while that one was stuck on "waiting for device" he opened another one becasue that was the only way he could get it to connect. Any help would be awesome. not trying to rely on everyone else but after several weeks trial and error im at my wits end with it.
thanks

So, for Christmas my daughter's mom got her an A33 Q88H QuadCore Softwinner tablet, and we discovered the OS it came with had some very strange issues related to a lack of compatibility with Google Play, so I tried to get around that with software, but I needed to be rooted. However, I had bizarre difficulties with SuperSU, unlocking the bootloader, rooting, and even more difficulties trying to flash a custom recovery that I could use to ROOT-- the obscure china tablet had no TWRP or CWM support. I finally tried a very convoluted method of flashing what appeared to be a ROM for the A33 Allwinner tablet, which hadTWRP already installed, so I could use TWRP to root it, and then finally fix the software issues.
However, the process didn't work, and when I rebooted the phone, I found it stuck on a black screen with a tiny android symbol, and that's how it's been since. Holding volume and power button only reboots it to the same screen -- no bootloader or anything, so I can't find any way to try to flash a factory ROM to get it back to regular settings. When I plug it into my computer, it makes the input noise, and shows up in Device Manager as "Android Device" with "Android ADB Interface" drivers successfully installed, but ADB doesn't recognize it as a device, and I can't get it into any sort of download mode -- it isn't recognized in My Computer as a hard drive. So, I can't find a way to interface with the tablet to reflash a stock ROM. :frown:
It's her Christmas present, so I don't want to admit that I've broken it; I've been trying to solve it all night for 12 hours straight, but I just can't find anything that works! Is there any way you guys can help me? :crying:
I tried to attach some pics but the uploader isnt working.
