Bricked Screen (A.K.A. phone-!-pc or Black Screen of Death)

To recover from this problem, you'll need to get into the Download Mode.

Black Screen of Death:A fully bricked phone will not boot, or display the charging logo when connected to a USB charger. This presently cannot be recovered from any recovery attempt, it will require the phone to be sent back to Samsung and be serviced.

This screen does not always mean your phone is bricked. If you have a hardware locked vibrant, maybe, however, if your phone is not hardware locked, unplug the USB cable from the phone, Hold down Vol UP+Vol Down+Power, the screen will flash black, continue holding down all 3 buttons, you will see the "phone--!--PC" screen again, continue holding all 3 buttons, the screen will flash black again, release the power button only. This will put you into Download Mode.

If this does not work, open odin. Then connect your usb cable to your phone and computer. While the USB is plugged in and Odin running press and hold volume down + Home + Power. Once the black screen comes (flashes) release the Power Button. It should get into download mode.

Additionally it is possible to get into the Download Mode using a kind of micro-usb connector, modified with a 301k resistor as showed in this video:

[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Nis_leo:

[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] antsmaster:
I talked to someone and he said to pres hold 3 buttons Vol Down + Home + power then insert battery and after that should appear the Download mode. I'm not have the phone whit me but i will try at home. if u succeed that and bring to life your phone let me know
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Nis_leo:

[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] antsmaster:
I try and schema whit modified resistor but nothing. i measured the level of battery it was at 2,4 V after some seconds it down to 0. Maybe it the battery? i charge all the night and next day i put on USB on PC all the day before it die. Maybe i broke the battery and no phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Nis_leo:
i dont think battery is problem in my case.i have checked my handset by replacing battery to.

Now i think service center is the last option.i'll visit there latest by tommorow.
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] antsmaster:
If you send it to the service, please after they send back to you the phone, post what they do to the phone (change motherboard or change another piece or just flash it) Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Nis_leo:
i changed my decision and visited service center today instead of tomorrow. when i handovered handset to them they inspected the handset i front of me. they disassembled handset gone through it.finally they told me that "we will try to resolve your problem with software, and the problem is not resolved then they will change(replace) the board.

lets see what they will do.i'll inform u what they did to my handset..............................:mad::cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] anshulsingh12995:
I think u need to go to customer care. (even i bricked my phone once...) but never ever accept that uve rooted ur phone... Thats wat i did... and i got my phone repaired without any further issues! :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] adizmayazal:
hi every one.......i saw this post now...........i too faced this problem.......its a hardware problem.....i took my mobile to service center they changed the mother board.......a preadvice never ever try anything with rom manager.....its the main culprit:mad:......
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Nis_leo:
used rom manager without any problem with my previous phone.......didn't face any problem......but i didn't know that CMD is currently not working with fit.........
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] adizmayazal:
i tryed to keep a back up of my rom and it got bricked(complete dead).......did u used rom manager on fit????
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Nis_leo:
like i said rom manager (CWM) mode is not available for g-fit.unfortunately i have used wrong cwm and got my phone dead...................
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] vishwanathptl:
u r right... First v need a working CWM and speciall build for our fit for taking backups and restoring the backups... then for ROM MANAGER support for our device v need to contack koushik to include our device... Later v can use ROM MANAGER for all the work...
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Nis_leo:

[General Questions and Answers] Sampsonlabarr:
My Question would be from a few days of looking around and asking for some help.

I was wondering if the MyTough 4G - HTC glacier 2.3.4 is rootable yet.

Phone: My Touch 4G

Carrier: T-Mobile

Kernal: 2.3.4

Or

....

Would it be possible to downgrade the kernal of my phone to the previous rootable kernal?

thanks for all the help ladies and gents.

New to this site, so i don't know if ill be checking this as much as i need to to find out my answer. If you could please message me with a response or if you have AOL messanger you can AIM me: sampsonlabarr

again, Thanks you developers.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
It is rootable. Go to the glacier forums and there is information on how to downgrade the software and root the phone.
[General Questions and Answers] BigBirdie:
Did you find out how to downgrade your android version 2.3.4?

The instructions I saw assume you have SU authority. I dont.

I downloaded the ROM, and saved the MISC.IMG but cannot move it to the dev/block as I dont have permission.

When I do the hboot, (power and volume down) it sees the new rom and examines the .zip file but no prompt on loading it. Just finished.

I need help.

I want to root it to load a new rom.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] thegr8anand:
Well after dropping my SGS2 five times on hard floor from waist height, I wasn't so lucky the 6th time. Now my glass has a big crack. Luckily I think its just the glass on top as it hasn't affected the display in any way. The touchscreen is working normally and colors are fine too. It isn't very visible when in use with bright colors and from straight angle with normal distance (pics closeup and side angle).

So is this covered under warranty? If not what would be the expected cost and where can I do it?
[Galaxy S II General] TSport-:
Mine's in for repair now because of a few nasty scratches on the glass. Unfortunately, the fact that the screen is intact doesn't lower the cost of the repair. The glass is attached firmly to the screen and both are replaced at ones.. I highly doubt that it's covered by the warranty since it's caused by "abuse" and not during production.

I'm using an insurance for this, otherwise the cheapest option would be ordering the display online and doing the swap yourself. I'd contact my local Samsung support for more details on where to repair. And here's a thread on the subject: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1253969

Also.. You definitely need a non slippery case since you tend to drop it so often.
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Five times that would be classed as suicide .

Damage is not covered by warranty Insurance maybe if you have any .

jje
[Galaxy S II General] jzmtl:
Yep, no warranty will cover drop damage. I've dropped mine twice in less than a month, putting some big scratch on the plastic the 2nd time, before I smartened up and bought rubber case and screen protector.

The stock shell is damn slippery I'll give you that.
[Galaxy S II General] poch_1421:
you're not using any case. buy a non-slip case after you get your s2 repaired
[Galaxy S II General] Seifer1975:
Not meaning to rub it in....but I cannot fathom how anyone can drop the phone 6 times, from waist height, within the last 3-4 months? You must hate your phone alot...:(
[Galaxy S II General] s2_d2:
My screen cracked before and I sent it back to be repaired. Though I never dropped it. Just took it out of my pocket and noticed the damage. I never bumped into anything either. When asking to get it repaired I stated that on the notes section and said it was a defective screen. It was repaired without any charges.
[Galaxy S II General] avetny:
daaamn man
[Galaxy S II General] wasiimabbas:
it really sucks but you droped it :eek: 5 times man ,

MT4G

Well I know that there are a lot of device specific screenshot threads here at XDA. I also realize that there are existing random posts here and there for mods, themes, widgets and the like.

In so many words, I'm looking for screenshots, but not limited to home screens and or lock screens. If you have a dialer or drop-down, maybe a boot animation… whatever. Post it. Regardless of device.

If you could also please include details or links to resources, that would be very nice.

Let the chaos begin.
[HTC EVO 3D] DJ Bushido:
Seeing if anybody else experienced some issues with this ROM? The eye candy is spectacular btw!!

- Internet doesn't work, won't open, no clue...

- Google Video Installer won't finish, it just does a couple things and says "Rebooting" (i've never even heard of it, but it looks awesome!)

- Can't overclock, stuck at 1188mhz (I used earlier Synergies and the kernel supported it before??)

EDIT: The "Google Video Installer" seems to delete my google account from my phone, and THEN do nothing... not good!
[HTC EVO 3D] chefdave12118:
You should post this in Magnus ' thread where everyone is using that rom.

Good luck to ya.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miHah:
Hello everyone!

I've been playing arround with "Tasker" for some while now, but i keep on hitting the wall with one profile i tried to set.

I cannot use the "application" context

When i set profle like that:

Context:

Application

Weather

Internet

Dropbox

Facebook

Google+

Twitter

YouTube

etc.

Enter Task:

Mobile Data ON

Nothing happens..

Every other Context work great, just application context never work. Also if i only set that when i start Calculator, phone vibrates or flash a notification, it doesnt detect that application is running ;(

I tried that Tasker on Virtuous Unity 2.35.0 and RCMix3D VoidU 1.0, same problem all the time....

Can anyone help me?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Hi,

The "Mobile Data" toggle is suited for CDMA handsets. Try using the "Mobile Data APN" toggle instead.

I'm an avid user of Tasker, I think it's great.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miHah:
No i have no problems with that.

I have problem about Tasker detecting when i open an app.

Since whatever Task i make for "when an app opens, do that task" it doesnt work :(
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Ah, I see.

No I have no issues with Tasker recognising when apps are open.

What version of Tasker are you using?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miHah:
Im using v1.1u2 :) the newest one :) what rom are u using?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zmfl:
I have the same problem... Tasker doesn't register apps being opened or closed. And I don't even have a Desire HD :D

It worked fine on stock ROM, but not on my current RevolutionHD.

edit:

I found a solution!

You need to add a line to local.prop located in the folder "data".

If there is no local.prop, create one. Or, add the line to build.prop located in "system". Both work, but I was told modifying local.prop is better in this case...

Anyway, add the line (it's case sensitive):

ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1

Reboot, and that's it :)
[HTC Sensation] Mr_Boob_Burglar:
I dont know how this happen... Now every time i hold my phone by the bottom right hand corner or tap the search button my phone creeks like its not in place i goes a slight bit down... I dont know if its cause of the heat sometimes this phone puts out or if its the back housing... Could it be both can anyone help
[HTC Sensation] thebigham:
Mine is same thing :( I saw a thread before suggested to put a post-it note between the phone and back case. It helps a little, but it's not a permanent solution.
[HTC Sensation] Mr_Boob_Burglar:
I honestly think its a combinstion of the way it opens and the heat warping the case :(
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
It's because it's a case full stop - things always get loose after a while. Not a lot you can do about it tbh. Doesn't bother me
[HTC Sensation] flamingrage:
Can this issue be fixed?

I had it since I bought the phone.
[HTC Sensation] daman215:
take the back cover and sqeeze it in a little on both sides top and bottom not to hard though
[HTC Sensation] naimmkassim:
That's what happen when you open and close the back cover too much. The back cover is made for one purpose only. To insert your sim card, SD card and battery. Once its insert, it should stay insert and no need to access the back cover anymore, unless if really required such as your phone hang which need to take out the battery. Others than that, you should not open the back cover. If you continue too much open and close the cover, of cause eventually, wear and tear will happen!! >.<
[HTC Sensation] cqms13:
You can always contact HTC and explain what is happening and request that they send you a new back cover. many people on here (including myself ) have done this..
[HTC Sensation] gustav30:

Just call HTC and tell them the problem they will send u a replacement back cover for free but u need to return the defective one or else they will charge u for the cost of the back cover. It also happen to my phone and I did call them and they sent me a replacement back cover now I don't have that creaking noise or whatsoever. I've been using it for a month now. Try calling and take advantage of ur warranty instead of doing a quick fix that someday the problem will come back.
[HTC Sensation] ikrispyyy:
I just put some paper at the bottom and it doesn't do it anymore
[HTC Sensation] DaClowns:
I have the same problem.

From what I've heard:

-It will eventually stop after a while.

-Some cases can prevent this from happening.

-A Larger battery can help this from happening.

[Xoom General] merkman:
I have a Motorola Atrix as well, and bought it a few days ago. Wanted to check it out on the Xoom, so I downloaded an .apk and installed on the Xoom. But when I went to "download" the 300MB "data" package for the install, it said incompatible device and stops.

So, I went to my Atrix, found a Madden 12 folder under the "SD Card" parition, copied that directory to my computer's "desktop", and I'm trying to copy that folder back to my Xoom's "SD Card" directory. Hoping it will see the data, and play... but does has anyone else tried this?

Definately taking a LOT time to copy from the Desktop to the "SD Card" partition. A LOT LONGER...
[Xoom General] merkman:
Update: So the game starts up, and looks ok at the opening screen. But when you get to the first "menu" where you pick your team... the graphics go wonky, and while you CAN select a team and get to the main menu, seeing what your doing is nearly impossible. :(

Wonder if we can edit a config file to make this work.
[Xoom General] merkman:
So I found a txt file with a resolution set to 800x480. Set it to 1280x800, but the graphics were still corrupted and didn't fill the screen. Just left a blank border and was still unplayable.

download spare parts and see if that would make it work. id love to get madden on the big screen also! i cant see playing it on a handset.

i use the same 1.0.0 of my atrix, the ball charging is ok, then menus are all messed up, but if you manage to start the game itself is perfect no artifacts in graphic and playable...only menus are "corrupted"

in data/data should be _row version, not _na
