OK so my phone is stuck on this flashing Android Logo....
I've researched a lot before posting this.
So this is what I did last night:
I updated the firmware from 2.1 to 2.3 and then when that was done, it seem to be working and so I saw this Android Logo flashing... so I thought to myself ah well better just take a sleep and see what happens tomorrow. So I wake up and it's STILL on that Android Logo...
I've done the Volume Down + Home + Power Button but I just get to some screen that says Download Mode.
I'm willing to do anything, as long as I can use my phone.
So is there anything I can do to get into it? Or is it bricked ?
Don't worry it's not bricked.
If you can get into download mode you can flash it again.
So what did you do to upgraDe from 2.1 to 2.3?
Sent from my GT540 using xda premium
I used KDZ_FW_UPD to update it.
Sorry for double posting.... but can someone help me? It's kinda urgent.
use kdz updater and flash it again.
well if you successfully flashed fastboot 2.1 you possibly can't soft-brick your device.
If you wanna have 2.3 running you should go into recovery (power + home) and wipe data / cache Partition and go to advanced -> wipe dalvik cache. after this you shold flash your ROM and it should work
So I instaled the CM9 to my Motorola defy and the mod did not started after reboot( I did the factory reset and cache reset ), was waiting for like 30mins and only the Google sign was showing up.. with low light on phone.
I removed my battery and tried to access the recovery(power and - button), no luck in there too also the Google sigh was up but with bit lighter then the simple google sigh..
Went to forums looked for ''bricked defy'' seen http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076735 thread but also dead end, the RDS LITE did not find my phone via USB.
Turned on the bootloader(power and + button) and nothing in there too. my windows dont feel like find the phone.
Help with some tips, please

Start up rsdlite....
plug defy into usb (w/o the battery in ph)...
hold buttons to boot into boot loader (power + volume [up/down] can't remember @ mo)
with the other hand insert your battery - 'if' your ph goes into boot loader mode flash your stock rom, [charge ph] & restore any nandroid that you had made
DRIVERS

do you install the motorola drivers? In order to make rsd able to find your phone you should install them.
do you wipe dalvin cache ? do you see the blue led when start your defy?
have you flashed the right kernnel?
Questions go in the Q&A section
Here are the facts:
1. My defy+ with red lens had this rom :Android 2.3.5 "Gingerbread" DEFY+ 4.5.1-134-DFP-125 - CEE LINK
2. took the stupid decision to flash this A.2.3.6-MIUI-XIUIv4.04-13.06-DEFY+/red-fixed'sbf from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1691901
3. the phone did not boot, remained at the black screen with the white writings on it so i decided to flash the image that i had (read point 1)
4. flash went relatively ok but now my phone is stuck at the animated motorola boot logo
5. if i take the battery out and power it on with the volume down i encounter a triangle with a "!" in the middle next to an green android - the 3e menu is missing - can't do a thing
if i power the phone with volume up the bootloader says "Bootloader 09.10, Battery OK, OK to program, Connect USB, Data Cable"
6. tried the following with no luck:
- let it run the animated boot loop for 10-12 minutes - hoping that will come out of it
- flashed it several times
- tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1618718 and it's exactly how it;s acting mine and i quote: "If that doesn't happen,it will ask you to reboot manaully and your phone will be stuck in MOTO logo.
- Now remove your USB cable and remove battery. Hold power button and vol + button, you will get that screen.
- Now connect usb, now it result should say pass.
- Press the power button and start the phone. First boot will take some time (Min of 10 minutes or more). "
I am tired, upset and kinda desperate... i thought it will never brick and... surprise
yo did not break your phone... that's almost impossible...
did you tried to flash a defy+ sbf from here http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_jordanplus/list.php using rsd lite???
try that first and later came back with results
dude, this is the wrong area but as you are desperate.... did you try to find some post
that could help you with your problem?
i'm sure that somebody already have the same problem as you do... so,
try searching for it in the general section
i can't help you with that, i have a green lens defy
best of luck
#edit
try doing what the guy above said
Questions go in the Q&A section
Did you do a full wipe from STOCK recovery prior to flashing your sbf? You MUST do a full wipe before you flash any sbf or you could bootloop. Reading your post it sounds like you can get to stock recovery (volume down +power) once you reach the triangle screen you describe press vol up, and vol down at the same time to get your menu and do a full wipe
Ok, brought it back to life!
First of all i want to thank all of you who wrote me in thread and private.
Second, yeah, i was pretty desperate mostly because i tried so many solutions, read so much and the thought that i was gonna empty the battery without finding a solution was really stressfull.
What did i miss? At step 6 what i should have done is press the volume up AND down at the same time to make the 3e Menu show up then wipe cache and everything and tadaaa... phone started.
Unfortunately it took me almost all night to figure out, read countless threads, googled like crazy till i found someone who posted the right and complete solution
Once again, many, many thanks guys
PS.
# espaciosalter20
i did several times with several images
# zyxwvut
i wanted to do a full wipe but the menu was not there, i thought that powering the phone with volume down pressed was enough to make the menu show up and do the wipe but unfortunately this was not the case... you had to press the volume up and down at the same time to make the 3e menu show up... stupid if u ask me... also not many ppl pointed this out in many tutorials/hints/threads so i had a hard time finding this piece of vital information.

Next time, please, make a full wipe ALWAYS before flashing... Yo can do that even in custom recovery (not need to do in stock all times, just when things go really mess up )
I was running jelly time no problems and all of a sudden the phone turned off and has a red blinking led on the bottom. i cant get into fastboot or recovery nothing.... dont understand cant turn on. even the ntoolki\t drivers dont look installed please give me suggestions i cant loose this phone.
Only thing I can think of is to fully charge it, then hold down power and volume down button.. hopefully it boots to fastboot - which you can then install stock ROM.
Also wrong section, should have been posted to General.
First of all, completely wrong area to post this. This does not belong in development. I'll report the thread to get it moved.
Second of all, a few people have noted these symptoms before. I believe some people were able to get out of it by plugging the phone in and repeatedly trying to reboot the phone or try to get into fastboot.
A few people had to RMA the device. Good luck.

This has been happened to quite a few people (including myself.) Here's a thread I made about it with other folks reporting the same thing as well. The only solution so far is to get a replacement.
Also, don't post things like this in the dev section.
Please post in the correct sections and in existing threads. Thanks.
hey guys/girls, so im fixing my friends phone it is a canadian Samsung galaxy note 3 (SM-N900W8) it is locked to rogers.
here is what he told me.
"I downloaded an emulator so I can play old games on it, I opened it and it didn't work so I rebooted my phone. but now it just powers on for about 8 seconds then shuts down. after about 3 hours it turned on so I went back on to the emulator and my phone started rebooting again."
it has been 3 weeks since this happened and it just keeps rebooting.
now, when I try reboot it in into recovery it stays on for 8 seconds then shuts down again. it wont even boot into the recovery.
when i try to reboot it into download mode it gets in for about 3 seconds then shuts down.
I have tried flashing cwm and twrp but download mode shuts down. the computer cant detect it quick enough.
I have checked the buttons and they were fine. not jammed.
the phone was not rooted(he wouldn't let me root it)
I need help with this. im stuck. please help me.
I thank you in advance

Try wiping system, data, cache, dalvik from your recovery if you can manage it. Also try removing SD-card if present. Some more info would be helpful for anyone trying to help you.
Hit Home, Power Up, and the Home button.
Then you'll be at the download/restart screen. After that, hit down to restart.
Thanks but i tried all of that and niether worked
Try odin
