I had one that was stuck in an infinite boot loop and wouldn't respond to physical keys. Build a JIG. It works. I have one and it's the best $6 I've ever spent. Took me 2 minutes to make on a breadboard.

Thank me if this helps.

Or you could ship me your phone :P

But I recommend building one.

I also couldn't get into download mode.

Hope it helps

Did u get it fixed?? i got the same thing
[Vibrant General] McQueefus:
Try turning the power off on your phone, plug the usb cable in and you will see the battery icon pop up. After that use all three buttons ( power and vol. up and down) until you see the screen go off like its going to reset. As soon as you see this, release the power button but leave the vol buttons held and it should go into download mode. This way has worked for me every time when all the other methods have not. If this still doesn't work, you might invest in a jig like others have suggested. I had the same error message a while back because like an idiot I tried to flash just a kernel and forgot to uncheck the repartition. Make sure you have the right pit. and the right pda (this should include the modem,rfs,kernel) and leave the repartition checked. Sometimes its hard to get into download mode but keep trying. Hope this helps and it wouldn't hurt to try and redownload the pda because the one you have might be bad. Good luck

man, I have said it too many times, the people in the store are idiots. I have had two if them call me to fix soft bricked phones, and one of them call me for help fixing a broken screen.

Learning how to do things, and how to undo things is key.

You should be able to get into download mode, either using the insert battery while plugged in and holding volume buttons, or using a jig. The jigs are cheap and make fun keychains.

@Mr Jeff who flashed a I9k (jp2) ROM with Odin, you most likely changed your bootloader. You may need to hold one of your soft keys (I don't know which) The key combo is different for the i9k

Follow these directions. These 2 files will give you the correct bootloader and rom files.... And go hit Brick'd's thanks button when it works.... If you can get to download mode these directions will fix your phone..... ;)

---------- Post added at 06:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:40 AM ----------

Just play with the button combos.....

Take battery out.. Re-insert then try volume down while plugging in usb. Then same technique with battery try volume up.

I'm not sure the softkeys are even active when booting from bootloader but it's worth a try to hold home+either volume button+power.... or either volume button and home while plugging in the usb....

A jig is your best alternative at this point... If these don't work.

While I feel your response to rule 11 was spot on, I think yours could use some rule 2.3 evaluation. There are mods for a reason, and while I have read through the rules, I don't reveiw them for each post, and wouldn't have remembered rule 11 myself.

Rule 34, though, is a totally different story..... ;)

an even easier method would be to take the battery out, hold down on the volume down button, and plug in the usb cable.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo3000x:
Hi..

Hopefully someone can help me..

I previously had ClockworkMod 2.5.0.1 installed and desided to change to Amon RA recovery 2.0.0, since I couldn't backup my ext4 partitions.

I've got RCMixHD 3.0b1 installed, but since I flashed another recovery it installed a new superuser - This superuser didn't work properly, as I had to "allow" all the time, everytime I needed root (try backing up with MyBackup Root eh'?).

Then someone told me to re-flash my current ROM without wipe, so I tried that..

But... I got an error after the ROM installed a bit and then tried wiping to restore my nandroid.

This unfortunately didn't work, as I got somekind of mount error.

Now, everytime I try wipe, install or anything from my SD Card in recovery I get the following error:

I tried re-partitioning my card, which didn't work, now I don't know what to do, already been phone-less for a day now =/

I can't flash another recovery with unrEVOked, as I can't get past the damn "HTC"-screen.

EDIT: Using "Clear storage" in FASTBOOT just made it reboot all the time @ "HTC"

Any sugestions will do, please help.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leinad:
I you can still get into recovery, you can also still get into bootloader and fastboot:

power off, then power on while holding 'back' button => You should get into bootloader

When in bootloader, you choose 'fastboot' => first choice in the list of four

You then connect you USB cable => You should see a message like 'fastboot usb' in red.

On you PC, open a terminal window and go to your fastboot directory (directory where you should have installed the Google SDK)

Then, you type the following command in your terminal window:

fastboot oem enableqxdm 0

This should reenable your SD card.

At that stage, you are back with a working phone, but the USB is not yet working properly. You'll have to reflash your 'misc' partition with a correct mtd0.img.

The tutos I showed you in a previous reply explains the procedure to follow.

hope this will help.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leinad:
Ya ... Your phone is working, but, when you plug your USB cable, your PC does not detect it, is'it ?

I'll be getting a ghost armor kit when it comes out, and using that. I have one on my current HTC Aria, and have dropped the phone a bunch of times, no damage. Might consider doing the battery cover in 3M Di-Noc carbon fiber vinyl so the back actually has the CF look all the way to the edges.

Picked up my Atrix today and got the OB Defender with it. I like the heft and protection of it, honestly. The only thing I wish is that the screen protector that is part of the polycarbonate shell wasn't so prone to grease marks. Looks like crap and I've had it less than 8 hours.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] greg25:
I got the otterbox today. Feels good on the phone. Doesn't really feel too bulky. Actually makes the phone fit better in your hand. I usually hate otterbox, but this one is excellent
[Atrix 4G Accessories] The Bishop:
I agree. I've always made fun of my co workers with their iPhones in an Otterbox, but after trying the defender on mine I bought it. It is bulkier, but not too bad. Not looking to use docks or anything so that works out.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] jjm3175:
The inside of the screen protectors on the OB's do look greasy after a while. There's a trick using baby powder on the inside. I had to do it with my 3gs. There are youtube videos that show you how to do it.

Seems like they only have the Defender case in the AT&T stores, but I picked up the Impact from the Otterbox website for about $15 including shipping using the coupon code: PSPNEagles04

I haven't had this problem with mine in the last 2 days, maybe u got greasy fingers? ;)
[Atrix 4G Accessories] ApplCobbler:
I bought the Defender the day before the phone came out, had it in for about 4 days. It's nice and you feel like you're holding a tank, but the bulkiness made it impossible to fit into my pants pocket and was really hard to slide in and out of pockets. I got one of the Body Glove gel cases yesterday and it makes the phone so much smaller and smoother to move around in my pocket and/or hold. Might just have to save the Defenser for when I go hiking and stuff.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Noodles5666:
I got the OBD two days ago. I am an avid OB advocate, but I am getting to the stage where I prefer the naked feel of phones now. Think I am going to return it.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] tonyantonucci:
OtterBox defender cases are available for he Atirx at the AT&T store.

I upgraded my son to the Attrix and the Otterbox Tuesday, the day it came out.

The downside to the otterbox (and most other cases too) is with the case you can not use any of the docks. Please tell me if anyone has a solution.

I am thinking this "carbon-fiber" idea might be good protection and still allow docking. Any thoughts?
[Atrix 4G Accessories] pcmike:
I think the Otterbox Commuter series might be the best trade off, just like it's the best trade off when it comes to the iPhone 4. Can't wait to get mine and return this Defender!

I picked up an OB Defender from AT&T on launch day... I'm getting used to wearing the belt clip...

[Atrix 4G Accessories] tekonus:
I had bought the Defender series the day I bought the phone because I liked the durability of it and I like to use the belt clip. had it on for 3 days and just decided that A) Its too freakin big. Like ridiculously big compared to the size of the naked phone. B) I felt like the screen protector not only made the beautiful screen on this thing look like crap, but it wasn't as sensitive and I made a lot of typing mistakes with it on. I returned it and I plan on getting the Ghost Armor full body kit cause they have a kiosk in the all by me and I've used their product on my iPod touch and it is awesome. So I'll just use the Ghost Armor to protect it from scratches and use an old leather belt holster that I had from an old phone that happened to fit perfectly.
