[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Hamsa22:
Hello, I just tried to install the new JB insertcoin version on my HTC One X. Something went wrong and now I am completely stuck. After having searched the internet for a few hours to avoid asking the same question two times, I decided to finally ask for help here as my case seems to be unique.

I'm currently only have access to hboot and fastboot, when I try rebooting the phone I end up in an endless bootloop just as I reach the home screen.

- I can't flash any .img files whatsoever,

- I can't access "recovery" and I promptly receive a text "security warning" just under "RELOCKED".

- when I try entering hboot mode it says "Failed to open USB Master Mode".

- I have tried flashing RUU but it says I have <30% battery, which is not true as it's nearly full.

I have no idea what I should do from here, is my phone dead or is there still hope? Thanks in advance, I really appreciate any input I can get.

Update. I realize I need to download "recovery.img" and proceed with installing a stock rom. However, when I try flashing the recovery.img it says "FAILED" in cmd.

Update2. Dowloaded the stock rom but received error 140 midway through the installation. Probably has something to do with the "FAILED" I get when using the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". Any help is appreciated, my batteries are probably at 50% now....
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] stnguyen09:
You say it says "relocked" in hboot? That means your bootloader isn't unlocked. You're gonna have to do that before you can do anything else.

Edit: also, are you sure insertcoin is for our one X and not the international (tegra 3) version? I quick skimmed through both our development sections and didn't see it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Hamsa22:
I have the EU version, my thread was moved here dunno why. Anyway, I unlocked bootloader and it now works to use the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" and when I run the corresponding RUU I receive error 155 instead of error 140. I am now stuck in an endless bootloop where the phone restarts as soon as the home screen is reached.

Edit: Is there any way I can revert the 1.28 firmware for JB? It says HBOOT-1.28.0000 in the bootloader and maybe this is what's causing problem.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] omario8484:
I remember one having to put the new hboot on there before they flashed it. Correct if I'm wrong
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Hamsa22:
Update: I installed an older (ICS) version of insert coin and it worked. I won't touch jelly bean for a while....
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DvineLord:
This thread should probably get moved to the HTC One X forum though. I would give advice but don't know anything about the HTC Endeavor.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
For them to run a jelly bean sense ROM they need to flash a updated hboot.

Hopefully that won't happen to us....
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DvineLord:
so you might as well run the ruu then to get jb for the endeavor then flash custom roms? can u still run ics roms afterwards? hopefully they dont have to flash boot.img in fastboot.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
They have to fastboot flash kernels regardless since their kernel partition isn't writeable in recovery

And I believe they can only run jb roms from that point on
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] horzz:
None of my device's sensors are working.. tried different apps to check out for readings. But all apps just flashed blank field. Is there a way to find out if its a hardware failure or firmware issue?? I have my warranty left so if its a hardware issue..must hurry up!

This has happened to me in both ICS and JB.

I'm using cwm_fixed_for_cm7-odin.rar, wiping data, flashing AOKP and GAPPS and rebooting.

Everything that supposed to be white is a light red/pinkish color.

What's causing this?

[Optimus One, P500, V General] cornelha:
We have some really talented developers in this thread, we also have the cream of the crop when it comes to android mods. I have seen so many incredible porting attempts for P500. So I came across this rom and I was wondering if anyone here felt like having a go at bringing this to our P500's. Unfortunatly I do not have the resources or time to build a rom, as much as I would love to.

This rom has some really awesome features borrowed from CM9 and AOPK and other roms. Its really brings us the best of all these roms into one single rom.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] mosta_9741:
try taking a shot with another device for wt the phone shows you, make sure that ur memory card is inside ur phone before turning it on. try again to check if u can get to recovery or download modes while ur memory card is in ur phone. im a noob so i can't help much but maybe we can figure it out together :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] MiguelPT:
Did you tried to turn on your phone without sd card and SIM card?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] passager2010:
thank you , ive tried a lots of manip with/without sim ; sd card ; even battery while coonecting the device ton pc , but nothing happen except , when i try to get into recovery or download mode , after about 10 seconds of pressing the bouttons , its like the phone is detected and the QHSUSB_DLOAD missing driver message appears again !! thats all
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] mosta_9741:
ok let's try to find the file of that driver, which rom wr u using ??
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] damastah:
don't mean to be a bearer of bad news, but your phone is hard bricked. Meaning no software will get you out of that. The driver you mentioned is the universal, you screwed something up driver. Youll need JTAG repair
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] passager2010:
DAMASTAH ,yes :( , iam aware of that but i still hope finding a software solution , thanks
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] passager2010:
i use this rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1673875
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] mosta_9741:
if ur still in warranty then the easiest way is to let samsung fix it for u :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] damastah:
My point is there there isn't a software solution . Your phone won't boot into anything. that's why software isn't a solution. You need JTag. a usb jig MAY solve it, but that's the only option short of JTag
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] passager2010:
i have not warranty because i live in TUNISIA and i bought the phone from a person who lives in europe , there is a samsung service in my country but if i take the phone to them , im sure it will cost me a fortune , so i have to find a solution by myself .

i see what do you mean , but if we think a little , the phone is not completly dead until my pc detect it as qhsusb-dload ! and im sure tha a software solution does exist (beside te jtag) using linux (ubuntu) ? QPST ? heimdall ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] stpdkid:
you can try another way beside jtag without using any software..

1. pull out the battery

2. plug the charger/usb charge on pc/laptop

3. hold the vol. down-menu-power(same thing like you do to get to download menu)

4. while you hold those three buttons put the battery again (make sure that you still hold those three buttons)

5. after you put in the battery, download menu will show up (now you can use odin to install which stock rom you like)

gudluck buddy..

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] damastah:
im in the business of unbricking phones. QPST has nothing to do with the phone's operating system. Heimdall needs your phone to be partly functional ( download mode) . Odin, same thing. Have you found any drivers yet? You need drivers to talk to your phone at all.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] passager2010:
i have seen a video on youtube explaining this manip , and i have try it with no success but , :) the good news , i have my phone bach to life with JTAG :D, thanks .

i took the phone to a phone store where they repair a multitude of phones , i found what i look for when i spook to the technicien there, after a while , i returned to the store and found my phone back to life :D and im very happy , so let me say this , thank you all of you xda members , if this forum does not exist , i will never figure out the solution :good:

Hi there.

i always forget to charge my phone. so everytime i wake up from sleep the phone is dead. i then charge it then when i turn it on i get stuck on the insert coin screen.

can you help me with this problem? i dont want to wipe flash then install the rom everytime my phone dies from a drained battery. not letting the phone die because of no charging is not an option.

tried clearing the cache and dalvik cache from recovery then rebooting and cant open my contacts, messages and i cant answer calls because it keeps force closing. tried setting the permissions thru 4ext recovery even after 15mins its still not finished.

Details are the following

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marlu873:
Hi all!

I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 which I since a week cannot start. It get stuck on the black/white samsung logo. I cannot enter recovery mode, nothing happens when releasing the power button after pressing volumeup+home+power buttons. I can however reach download mode. I'm not sure what caused this problem, one day I just couldn't start it. I read on forums that many similar problems seem to have occurred when upgrading android but I'm not sure this is the case here (unless the phone made an automatic update while I was asleep). I'm not sure what version of android I'm running, but I'm pretty sure it is at least the ICS.

I would like to hard reset my phone if possible. It seems to be easiest through the recovery mode which I cannot get into.. I read things about Odin, connecting the phone to the computer and downloading android to the phone but haven't quite grasped it. Could anyone explain this option for me or point me in the right direction? Are there other options?

I would appreciate any help, especially since my 1-year warranty expired a month ago!

Best regards,

Marcus

Hi Marcus,

I had the same problem few days back.

If it's not broken by you trying something fancy, the best solution is to take it to service centre. If you have rooted your device, had installed some custom firmware or are not willing to visit the service centre for some other reason, please read ahead.

All I did was,

Installed USB connectivity drivers through Kies.

Installed ODIN 1.83

Ensured that Kies or any of its processes are not running in background.

Downloaded the official SGS2 firmware

Flashed the firmware through ODIN.

It took around 10 minutes for the full process and I was having my mobile up and running. Using ODIN sounds scary initially if you haven't used it. I have slowly started gaining confidence in it after using it a few times.

Please note that though the process is well proven to be safe, there is still an amount of risk involved.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
Download a siyah kernel(like v4.0.1) .tar file and flash through odin.

See if that makes it boot/lets you into recovery.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marlu873:
I appreciate all of your answers!

Adarzannh: I tried the guide but when flashing using odin I get stuck on:

<ID:0/003> NAND Write Start!!

both when trying to flash the recovery package and the kernel. Any clues?

mananbdesai: where do I find the "official SGS2 firmware"?

theunderlining: is it enough just to flash a new kernel or do I afterwards need to flash ROM too?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HAXTREME:
A couple of things..ensure KIES is not running on your computer in the background. If possible delete it completely. Also ensure your phone is connected to a USB port directly on the computer and not via a hub or to a USB port on a keyboard or something. Odin is a finicky s/w..so..

Also, try different versions. If v1.85 doesn't work try v3.4

Go to sammobile.com or a sticky in the Original Android Development section here..has links to all the stock firmwares.

Lol at underlining. :D if you flash a custom kernel like siyah, you'll be rooted and get CWM. Using that you can install a custom ROM.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
And youll be safe from the 4.0.4 brickbug if you flash siyah.

You flash a kernel for various reasons like it has emmc cap disabled,you can tweak it etc.

You can flash siyah kernel and stop there.Or you can move onto a custom rom.

Whatever,when its done-backup your efs and make a nand backup.

And yesterday I was downgrading my wifes phone onto 4.0.3.I was using odin and kept getting "failed".After 3 attempts I realised I hadnt put the phone into download mode..........how stupids that......lol

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flash-IS-Bright:
I had a similar problem, stuck at boot with Biftor v12, which happened after I tried to update SuperSU binary through CWM/TWRP. I don't know why it stuck at boot and why it wouldn't reboot to Recovery. Download mode was still working, so I had no choice but to flash new kernel through ODIN and see if it works.

So if your symptoms sound similar to mine, here's what I did to be able to boot again:

I REPEAT, SIMILAR TO MINE. MY SOLUTION MIGHT NOT NECESSARILY APPLY TO YOURS.

1. Download a suitable kernel in tar.md5 format. I used PhilZ-cwm6 v4.93.6 for XWLSN firmware (see OP http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1877270)

2. Download ODIN, if you don't have it, found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2189539

3. Once installed, boot your phone in Download mode by pressing Vol Down+Home+Power together until you see a warning dialog. Press Vol UP to get into download mode.

4. Make sure ODIN is running, and NO KIES processes are running.

5. Connect your phone with USB cable to your PC.

6. In ODIN, you should see a COM port with yellow background.

7. Click the PDA button ONLY.

8. Select the kernel file you downloaded.

9. Press Start and nothing else.

10. If everything went as expected, your phone should reboot after a while with a working Recovery.

Only do the steps if you are absolutely sure. This worked for me, and I hope it gives some tips for your problem as well.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peshmann:
Hi Flash-IS-Bright

I have the exact same problem with SuperSU on my rooted Galaxy S2. I updated the SuperSU app, and when I opened it, it recommended me to update the binary, I selected the CWM/TWRP option and then my phone tried to reboot but is now stuck. It can only access download mode.

In doing the process above, you only flashed the kernel? Did this totally work? And all your apps/messages were left intact on your phone?

Any help is appreciated.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
when ur updating the binary u should always choose the 'Normal' thing instead of the 'CWM/TWRP' one ma8 :)

if u flash a kernel it will not delete anything on ur phone, all u have to do is to select the right kernel like 'Philz' for example (if ur on a stock JB firmware) and flash the same through 'ODIN' and reboot ur phone :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peshmann:
Thanks for your help. I've originally had Jeboo 1.2 kernel on my phone and tried to reflash that again through Odin. It passed, however I'm still encountering the same problem of the bootloop.

Would flashing a different kernel help? I'm on stock JB firmware but with a Jeboo kernel. I am happy to try another kernel (if that would not brick my phone)

Do you have any other suggestions to help me solve this?

Again thanks for your help
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flash-IS-Bright:
You could try flashing hawkerpaul's kernel wiper first and then install another stock kernel like PhilZ or Apollo, and see if that helps.

Dear All,

I have installed the "I9100XWLSZ_NeatROM_Lite_v5.0.1" custom rom and after 1 month of successful usage, today suddenly the phone was dead.(probably due to autoupdates over wifi) . I tried to reboot, but didnt. Tried to restart but got stuck in the logo screen with yellow triangle.

Tried to enter recovery mode, but no use. Only download mode is possible.

Tried to flash the stock rom using odin, but no use, Nand write failed.

Can somebody help me how to come out of this situation. Shall I install a different kernal and see?

t's a fair price for my Photon with no nicks scratches or blemishes with SPB 3d shell, and a 8 gig memory cad.

Sprint is offering 80.00.
[Motorola Photon 4G] br0adband:
These kinds of posts/threads are always interesting because there are a lot of variables like is it unlocked for GSM, is it rooted, is it pure stock, where it's being sold, the market in that area, and so on.

I'd say at this point in time a Photon in excellent physical and working condition is worth roughly $125-150, as for the accessories or whatever that I don't consider to be too much of the pricing. An 8GB microSD card can be found for $5-10 these days so that's nothing at all. The case? No matter what people pay for those pieces of plastic or silicone or whatever, they're already overpriced by massive margins 99% of the time so, that shouldn't really be a factor either - the potential new owner may not even care to use their device in a case at all.

Original box, packaging, etc, it's all nice and dandy but that stuff doesn't increase the value of the phone itself.

This is US dollars I'm speaking of, as well, since I can't tell where you're hailing from and this forum is worldwide. ;)

/me is expressing his own opinions about the value of the Photon so take all comments in this post as such...

I would say if your selling it, and its on 2.3.4, than NO DEAL. Ebay will give you 120 easy. If your buying it, and it is 2.3.4, than Buy! Only if it's running 2.3.5 do you have a problem.

If you want reference, I bought my Electrify for $100 with no accessories off Craigslist about 2 months ago.
[Motorola Photon 4G] dragontology:
I'm wondering what I can get for my Electrify, but it won't matter until next August when I qualify for new-customer pricing at US Cellular (so I can put the amount towards the S3 or Note 2 successor, or whatever I decide on switching to then). I have an Otterbox Defender and a 4GB microSD card -- the 16GB card is coming with me. Unless the new phone doesn't have a microSD slot I suppose. And it's unlocked, so I can give the buyer whatever Android version they want. MotoBlur, CM7, CM9, or CM10, or a ROM based on one of those.

And I disagree about cases. The Otterbox Defender is a $50 case (though you can find it cheaper -- I paid $30 for mine). I wouldn't add $50 to the price but I would at least add $25. (What I paid for mine doesn't matter, it's what they go for.) It's in perfect condition so why not.
