Does anybody know whether the phone actually charges in fastboot mode or in erecovery mode? At least in TWRP or in normal system mode, we can see that it actually charges. In fastboot we don't see anything; and in eRecovery, we do see a battery icon on top, but it doesn't seem to actually charge. Or if it does - it does at a glacial pace.
Here's why I'm asking. For whatever reasons, my device currently does not allow me to boot normally, to do a factory reset, to flash TWRP (my bootloader is unlocked). Anything I try to do ends up in 'error mode' or in erecovery mode. I also do not seem to be able to shutdown my phone to just charge it, as it always automatically starts up again. I can still start in fastboot mode, but I have very little battery power left.
I am hopeful that the new hisuiteproxy + hisuite solution may allow me to unbrick my soft-bricked phone. But before I do that, I would like to make sure I have enough juice in the phone not to get in trouble. Does anybody have any ideas? Thanks!
UPDATE - the only way I have found to make my phone charge, is from the eRecovery screen. And yes, it sure is 'glacial', when compared to 'normal' charging, which only takes a few hours to charge 100%. I have now had my phone plugged in (NOT to a PC, but directly to the power mains) on eRecovery for about 9 hours, and the phone is charged about one third. Terrible, but better than nothing. I'll let it charge for another 10 hours or so, and will then try the hisuiteproxy/hisuite solution. But I'd still very much appreciate it, if somebody could pitch in! Thanks!
UPDATE 2 - a few hours later. The phone is still in eRecovery. An it looks more like 75% charged. So yes, this mode seems to be a LOT slower, but it still charges!

Hi guys,
I figured I'll post again here since I think I bricked my phone.... I was trying to install Eugene's Vibrant6.zip and I got stuck on the Vibrant Logo with Samsung at the bottom. I tried to reset with both volume buttons and power button and got to grey battery and nothing else...
What I did prior to this was I formatted system and data on the recovery screen as per some posts here and it would just boot into a loop. Windows won't recognize a device and it just shows grey battery image and it doesn't seem to be charging. Anyone can help me?
EDIT:
Out and in the battery, plugged in to USB and it just loads the battery image and it's all grey color as if fully discharged and just stuck on it. Device is also not found in my system so I can't do any adb commands. If I just reset it without the cable it would just sit on the Samsung boot loop. Anything I can do?
UPDATE: Ok, some good news! I heard the sound as it connected via USB, I can see the 2 drives, but they read as Removable Disk and I can't access them...
adb reboot recovery or download
error: device not found
What if simply format the drives via Windows right click menu? Will that do any good or bad? What are my options here? Any help will be appreciated!
UPDATE: Well... looks like this is pretty much a dead phone.... I right clicked and selected Format in My Computer and it just says There is no disk in Driver F: Insert a disk and try again.
Can I a mount an image somehow via MagicISO? Or is there something simpler that I just can't figure out?
Again, thanks for your help!
Thanks.
Has anyone experienced this or am I the only one?

Sorry I have never heard of this or witnessed it while flashing anything to my device. Obviously the battery screen signifies that the phone is off but is in charging mode and hitting the power button will boot the device up. (I'm sure you already know of this). Never heard of it being stuck at that screen after flashing. Hopefully you can get this solved soon. Good luck

Slow down for a second. Your phone is definitely not bricked. Ive been over the edge, and been able to bring my phone back to life.
To clarify, you flashed vibrant6.zip through clockwork mod, and then the phone got stuck on the samsung S? How long did you let it sit there?
It sounds like just your ROM is messed up.
Are you able to "get into recovery"? Holding both volume buttons while you power on the phone, without it being plugged into usb.
Do you have Odin? And have you ever used it?
Its totally frustrating when your phone gets messed up and you don't know what to do.
I flashed the stock ROM via Odin and then wanted to install Vibrant6.zip. For that I entered into a recovery mode via Clockwork and as someone in the other thread advised, I formatted system and also data, don't recall exactly. Then it looped to a standard recovery mode and I just rebooted the phone. This is where it got stuck... Vibrant in the center and Samsung at the bottom of the screen. To test it I left it like that from night till this morning. In the morning I woke up it was on the same boot screen.
Before that at night, after seeing it hand at the boot, I held both volume keys and power, waited for it to reboot, and immediately it showed a circular progress bar, but not moving just highlighted the 12 o'clock bar and second later I see the battery image all in gray and nothing else. It just sits on that grey static image without actually charging it (no green section or flashing dots)
Boot logo only appears if I am trying to reset without the USB cable. On the boot loop I plug in the cable and I hear the USB connecting it, I see the 2 Removable disks, but both inaccessible and adb commands don't recognize the device.
Very weird, as in turned off mode it's not charging at all.. just shows this grey battery image with a circle progress froze on 12 o'clock bar.
That's pretty much it.... I was never able to enter into recovery nor download via the buttons. It would just always reboot into this grey battery screen....
Completely helpless.... I did order a new battery from TMO, maybe the battery is fried and that's why it's not charging and just sits on this stupid static grey battery screen.

Holding both volume keys and releasing power once screen goes blank, only show Vibrant logo again... I have tried this a million times
With USB cable it shows grey battery screen, without the cable just a Vibrant boot loop...
I'm assuming that you have the Samsung drivers installed.
Try the following steps:
Take out the battery and then put it back in but don't turn the phone on.
Plug it via USB.. does anything show up on the screen?

Yes, I have the drivers installed as I was able to locate my device and use adb commands to enter into recovery and download. Also Kies worked.
Doing what you asked simply load the grey battery image and nothing else with a progress bar not spinning. Just sort of hangs on this image and that's all.
Booting without the USB cable loads the Vibrant boot loop. Connecting USB at this boot loop state, would play a sound as if it connected to my windows, but I can only see Removable disks that are inaccessible and adb doesn't find the device...
Very strange.... trying to use the button keys to enter into recovery or download is no use, as that just won't ever happen, even when phone was working fine.
Any other suggestions? I would return the phone for replacement... but I am not sure how it would look with all the files still on the internal disk including root if I am not mistaken... I had only few hours of sleep because of this headache

Are you sure that you're doing the right things to get to download? I've been in this situation and I wasn't able to get into recovery but I was able to get back into download mode.
I believe if you return it back and they find out it was rooted, they will charge you for it. If not, it'll appear on your bill.
I'm sure that you're doing the wrong things to get into download mode. If something is appearing on your screen it is a soft-brick and you're not bricked.
1. Take out battery, put it back in. (to turn the phone fully off)
2. Don't turn it the phone on!
3. Plug the phone into your PC, do not hit the power button!
4. See if the phone shows anything on the screen (powers on its own when plugged in)
IF the phone screen does 'turn on' after being plugged in without you hitting the power button, so far so good.
5. Now while it's on like this, hold the volume up and volume down buttons.
6. Hold the power button as well as the volume buttons until the screen goes black.
7. As soon as the screen goes black, let go of the power button! But DON'T let go of the volume buttons!

A tip to get into download mode is to put the phone HORIZONTALLY (sideways) and it will make it a lot easier.
I am pretty much positive about it. I know a lot of people can easily enter into recovery or download modes, but I know many can't and I am one of them. It would just load the grey battery image instantly as I let go of the power button.

THE STUPID GREY COLOR BATTERY IMAGE APPEARS AS BEFORE....
I'm thinking maybe battery is fried and that's why the grey color screen appears and not the usual screen where you see the battery charging...
After reading this thread it's clear that my handset is one of the new ones that have recovery/download modes disabled via the volume+power buttons.
So that pretty much covers it... I hope TMO will not ***** about the files that are on the internal sd that I am unable to access and remove... unless anyone else has any fresh ideals how to gain access to the disk
I think I might have a similar problem.
I accidentally deleted the touchwiz framework so I can't do anything ON the phone. It boots up, and gets me to the lock screen. As soon as I unlock, I am greeted with dozens of unending force closes.
I can get into both download and recovery mode, however, I have not been able to get ADB to recognize the device. I am attempting to push the stock ROM to the internal memory to flash over everything.
I'm not sure what to do to get ADB to work but it's driving me nuts!

Try asking another question. But I suggest using a USB jig. They usually work. Then odin
Sent from Mount Olympus via Hermes
Did you ever get it fixed man? I literally did the very same to mine a while back and It works like butter as we speak. It is fixable with a mini-usb jig or dongle. You can make your own with about $3 worth of parts from radio shack but I recommend buying one, it will be easier. I for the record made mine simply twisting together the resistors and though it was tough to touch the right pins it did eventually work and get me back into download mode.
Hopefully you already got it fixed though. If not I can help you out.
Long story short, I am reviving my Rezound after being stuck in the re-boot loop problem.
Using the volume-down + power key combo does not work.
I can connect via adb. running adb devices shows it is connected and in recovery. Running get-state however is shown as unknown.
Running adb reboot recovery or bootloader cycles the phone back to a dead state, no HTC screen ever pops, and adb device is listed once again as in recovery.
I can use the adb shell command.
I am s=on with cwm recovery. I would like to flash to amonra, but with out being able to get to fastboot it will be a little bit hard.
Please help guys! I am going nuts here!

OK. Evidently my once full battery has now been run down too far to make anything of import happen. Right now I am without a ROM installed, and so no charging is happening. Is there a way to let the battery charge in the device? Right now the red light comes on and then goes off. Should I just get an external battery charger?

when battery is close to zero the light will blink 5 sec on 5 off. once it goes solid you can try again but this is normal.
After an unsuccessful CWM flashing attempt, my phone it getting the infamous "SECURITY ERROR" message. Now, I tried the offline KDZ method, but like many other JB users, the flashing got stuck at 15%. So, finally I decided to use the online flashing method using the new LG Support Tool. But the sad part is that I am suffering from a low battery issue.
So, does anyone know how to charge a soft bricked Optimus L9?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
I'm just guessing but you could try removing battery for 15-20 sec then inserting it and connecting your phone to charger. If that doesn't work, try installing x and u using fastboot that try same process with removing battery...
You can always use another phone to charge your battery

I tried the fastboot method too, but I face a problem while doing it. The OAMP device which shows in the devices manager keeps disconnecting and reconnecting. So then I unplugged the USB and clicked on "show hidden devices" and then installed the drivers by clicking on the OAMP shown there. But when I plug in the USB again, the same reconnecting starts happening. Do you know a solution to this?
You should follow this post...
Connecting and disconnecting of OMAP device is normal, but it is important that it's recognized in device manager...
FINALLY UNBRICKED....
Sincere thanks to all those wonderful people who have made so many tutorials. I failed to do the offline KDZ flash as well as the fastboot method (as I have mentioned above). But anyway, I did unbrick my phone. I flashed using the online method as follows:
Download the latest LG Mobile Support Tool.
Connect your phone in "Software Upgrade" mode (by holding the Vol UP button while connecting the USB).
In the LG Tool, click on "Options > Recovery". Getting the recovery to open is a confusing task. You have to fiddle around with the USB Drivers options a bit.
Now, let the LG Tool do it's magic [In my case, it downloaded a 592MB file]
CAUTION: When the upgrade tool is in it's last stage, the phone will restart at around 93%. When it restarts, you quickly need to press and hold the Vol UP button to again enter the "Software Upgrade" mode, otherwise the upgrade will not succeed and you will get an error. If you get that error message, don't worry, the Tool will tell you how to "RETRY" (don't worry, no file will be downloaded from the internet this time )
REGARDING THE BATTERY ISSUE:
When my phone got bricked it was at around 65%. Now, when I finally unbricked it, I am seeing 83%!! So, either the phone charged when it was connected in the "Software Upgrade" mode, or it charged when I plugged the charger in the wall socket for half an hour. In any case, if your battery is dead (and phone is bricked) try to charge using a wall socket first. When you do this, the phone will automatically switch on and you will again get that sad "SECURITY ERROR" message. Just switch off the phone when you get this. Let the phone be plugged in for some time to let it charge. [NOW I AM NOT SAYING THAT IT WILL CHARGE AS I HAVE MENTIONED THE TWO POSSIBLE WAYS ABOVE, but hey, it's worth a try!] If your phone switches on, good job! Otherwise, try to charge via the USB by connecting to your PC/Laptop by going into "Software Upgrade" mode.
I just hope that the above points will help some unlucky soul who was stuck like me Remember, never give up!
Thanks to all for the tips my optimus was running fine at about 65 percent charged and just shut off. I bought a new battery charged all night in the wall still nothing. I can't get my computer to see it. when i hold power and vol down I can hear the computer make sounds like it recognizes it though

well I did the fastboot option i found but not sure if I did it right, I downloaded the omna files but not sure if the right ones but I did get the screen to show a faded out lg symbol not sure if that means anything
Use fastboot from here. You have here how to install fastboot drives. Then follow instructions from this page.
Read instructions carefully and you should be able to successfully unbrick your phone.
my z5 Compact is taking forever to charge and even after I leave it in for hours, it still says it needs to be charged. When I unplug the phone from the charger and try to turn it on, I get 3 red lights. Holding volume up and turning it on only gives me 3 vibrations. Before this happened, I used the phone all the way till the battery shut down. After that, I can't get it to charge any more.
Sounds like you over-discharged the battery. You should always avoid using the phone to the point where it force shutdowns due to 0% remaining battery.
Try hard shutdown by pushing and holding the yellow OFF button in the flap for 10 seconds, then charge the phone for about an hour and try turning it on.
If that doesn't work, press and hold ALL physical buttons simultaneously (VOL UP, VOL DOWN, POWER, CAMERA) AND press and hold the yellow button for 10 seconds.
The phone should vibrate or something, I forgot, then charge the phone for about an hour and try turning it on.
Volume up + Power for hard shutdown.
Can you get into flash mode or fastboot mode?
Plugging the phone into your computer and entering fastboot mode helped me once:
So you disconnect your phone, do a hard shutdown to make sure it is off. Press and hold vol up and connect it to your computer. If a blue light shows up, at least the basic circuits and bootloader are ok
Keep your phone connected for 30 minutes and you should (well, might) have some charge again.
If you can get into fastboot or flash mode but still can't boot up, try reflashing your phone (if possible), esp. your boot partition.
try charge with QC2.0, adapter will charge device on 9v, its standar QC2.0, when your phone drain of battery until shut down, down turn it on. Your phone must connect to charger and wait untill 2%-4% of battery before turn on.
if charger fail, change your battery, dont force charge before IC power broken (dead)

I am running on a 5823 imported from the UK (i think). Is it safe to flash boot.img prescribed for the 5803.
Also, where can I find a collection of boot.img for the 5823? I am not really sure I am doing this right.
Re-writing boot in fastboot mode will only work if your device is unlocked, and although unlocking should happen in the bootloader it is not something I would risk with an already bricked phone. Maybe as a last resort thing.
But IIRC just keeping the phone connected to your PC in fastboot or flash mode somehow bypasses some of the charging logic*, so just leaving your phone to idle might give you some basic battery charge to start with.
If you can enter those modes: You can re-flash your phone with stock firmware using the proprietary flash mode (Vol-Down when connecting to PC, green led should show up). Search for 'Xperia Flashtool' and/or 'XperiFirm', there should be lots of information, these tools help you download Sony firmware, too. I would not flash an image for a different phone type, I guess there is a reason why they made 2 firmwares
If you still only want to flash boot.img (= only the 'boot' partition on the flash as a raw image), you'll need an unlocked bootloader first. Also, if you already have an unlocked bootloader, you probably have installed a custom ROM (why else do you unlock your bl?). To avoid any more confusing error sources, I recommend flashing exactly the boot.img via fastboot that came with your custom ROM and that worked until now.
*Most likely bc there is no kernel to optimize (read: mess up) charging. I once had a Z5C with more-or-less blown charging 'stuff' and I was able to charge it in fastboot mode as a workaround.
Three red blinks is, afaik, a status message for a dead battery. It has been discharged below safety limits, and is no longer safe to charge.
Hello friends, I come to report here a problem I'm having with my device.
It is not charging my battery, I thought it was a problem in the battery itself, I made the replacement for an original, but the problem was not solved. the device uses all the battery power, it stays at 0% and it does not charge, besides, it recognizes my SIM card, but there is no signal from the operator to make calls or use the 4G network, I did a lot of research I saw that it was a problem related to Software, regarding the CQA test, I saw several tutorials, where none succeeded, lastly, I would like to install a custom rom to see if the problem would be solved, but I went to do the bootloader unlock process, but when Fastboot displays the code and I enter the site of the motorola, it returns me with an error that I can not unlock the bootloader of my cell phone, and I need to unlock to be able to customize the android.
follows a video showing what is happening with my device.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17roum_XlzQ
sorry if my text contains errors, I'm from Brazil and I used the translator to write
Thank you if anyone can help me because I have the device stopped because of this.
Thank you!
Hi, had the same issue. What helped me was connecting
power cable, going to bootloader, from there navigate to recovery. When it boots to recovery, regardless if there is any, leave it for some time. After about 5-10 minutes try rebooting, and it might picked up some charge, then it should charge as normally but very slowly, cellular connection also appeared.
Last time when my phone went to 0% and after going through this procedure my phone was at 17% after charging in recovery mode but didn't charge in normal mode after reboot. I also needed to toggle some setting regarding CQA in bootloader menu. Then everything went back to normal.
I will do this procedure to see if it solves my problem, remembering that my battery is in 0% and with it connected in the device it is only displaying the lightning, informing that the battery is without load.
what settings did you make regarding the CQA?

Last time when my phone went to 0% and after going through this procedure my phone was at 17% after charging in recovery mode but didn't charge in normal mode after reboot. I also needed to toggle some setting regarding CQA in bootloader menu. Then everything went back to normal.

My device does not hold 5 seconds on bootloader because my battery is at 0% I believe the power supplied by the cable in the charger is not enough to keep it powered on. and now?
Original charger is definitely more than enough to keep phone on in bootloader mode. Try to make sure that usb C connection is dust and grease free.
Regarding CQA mode setting I can't remember exactly, but that is second thing.
Maybe even 5 seconds in bootloader should be just fine to navigate to recovery.
I wish you good luck, i was almost desperate when it firstly happened to me.
i had the same problem. after lot of trial and error i found a solution.
connect to power source (wall adaptor/modo battery mod.) get into bootloader menu and wait for 5 mins pressing vol up or down frequently.
then select reboot to recovery. on red triangle screen holding power button press and release volume up button one time. you will get into android stock recovery
select option wipe cache partition. and select yes when asked.
keep charging the device upto half hour in recovery mode and then select option reboot to bootloader.
after bootloader menu appears scroll down to BPTools and select it.
Your Phone will reboot and you will get Network and Your Phone will also charge normally.
Warning: Do not let your phone discharge to 0% or you might have to perform all above steps again.
This method worked for me as well. I recently replaced the battery on my Moto z force droid but couldn't get it to charge and signal was gone, after trying several things the Bp tools worked great, thanks dude.
