okay heres what happened i recently flashed anderoids aosp 2.2 rom that was full of bugs and one of the problems was not being able to get into recovery i tried to get into recovery and my phone got stuck in a loop and now that im trying to get into download mode it doesnt want to. I plug my phone into the computer and the battery charging icon appears i press the 3 buttons the screen goes black and then returns to the picture of the battery.

When the screen goes black then release the power key and then it should go to download mode....

Hey guys
I am really sad because my wildfire became handicapped today...
I was playing around with it surfing and playing games
Then I put it on the table played abit on the pc but when I picked it up again the screen didn't turn on when I press unlock I felt feedback so it means the phone works the screen isn't tried restart it vibrates but doesn't turn on screen...
What can be the cause?
Is it because I updated nightlys every two or so days?
Thanks
Plug battery out. And plug it. It happen for me a few times in nightly

tried everything...
battery pull out, charge it, remove sim\sd... anything...
----
oh and forgot to mention
right before the screen died it went white then it never turned on again
is there a way to flash an rom to the wildfire without touching the device? i.e cable?
i currently have no screen but the device is alive...
Is your screen completely dead? Or only after booting? I.e can you see the bootamimation? Try booting into bootloader mode (volume down + power)
If your screen is completely dead it might be a hardware issue.

Why is this in the Dev Forum? Please move!
Yes perhaps it is in the wrong section but by posting that your basically spamming up the forum.
Anyway on topic i agree find out if it really is your screen or just a dodgy flash of a rom

sorry didnt know where to post,
and no i dont even see the animation... as i turn it on i only feel vibration for a sec then i can hear it boot.. but still no screen..
oddly it was after flashing a nightly..
and as i asked:
can anyone tell me if theres a way to flash RUU without screen ? i suspect it might be a problem with software..
Hmmmm you could get sdk and get mobile on pc screen.
not too sure but exhaust all avenues. Have you tried soft reset?
Vol down + power + trackball

In my experience with ipods, a white screen is usually a hardware issue (ie it needs changing), which seems to be consistent with what you experience (no startup logo).
I hope it is not the case for you, and that your problem will be solved by flashing a different rom.
Hi all, I have a galaxy s and was going to install a new rom. I saved the rom to the sd card and pressed the power button to go into recovery mode, the screen went black as usual but never rebooted and the screen stayed black. I connect it to the pc and it tried to load some driver something to do with "test driver" but anyway the screen stays black and the phone does nothing. Any ideas how to fix this without sending back to Samsung. Thanks for any ideas. Wayne.
Does the phone show the samsung logo at the beggining or is it just dead black?

the same problem with me today blank screen, no vibration, no download/recovery mode, anything. The only sign of life is when I connect it to my PC, it detects a new device named SEC S5PC110 Test B/D , request a driver
You should send it back to Samsung. I'm thinking that its more than a software (ROM) problem when even download/recovery mode isn't working.
Same happened to me, try to get your phone back in restore mode with the three button trick. Amd reinstall the image again... it will work..
mine is just black does nothing except request a driver when i connect it to a pc. SEC S5PC110 TEST B/D. thats all it will do.
It is probably the deep sleep coma bug (I've had it ever since I flashed to 2.3.4).
Hold the power button down for 10 seconds and it should reboot the phone.
Remove the battery, leave the phone disconnected from the PC and get the phone in restore mode. Then when that succeedes, connect the phone to the PC.
I heard this problem in other forums when users flash a wrong rom or firmware. Only samsung can repair your device.
Try to access download mode: vole down button + home button + power button if you can access this let me know

Hello, so my atrix was perfect like 2 hours ago. I ad neutrinos rom gt+ on it for like 2 days days and everything was perfect. But ! well i was playing a bit with it and deleted some stuff in the android folder of my internal sd, it was only real racing 2 game files and some other stuff. I played some more with it and my screen started flashing strangely and doing weird stuff. I closed the screen, i opened back same thing. The phone shutted down itself. I tried rebooting and now im stuck at the red m logo with unlocked in the top left corner. i tried to access recovery by doing a battery pull and rebooting but i dont have access to the little menu. Anybody can help me fix this?
Silly question but are you holding down the volume down rocker button during boot? Do you get the prompt for fastboot, android recovery, etc ?
If it pops up scroll down using volume down to android recovery and hit the volume up to select it.
Should be able to fix it from there.
When i hold down volume down button there is absolutely no prompt pf any kind =\ i already installed some stuff with cwm and i had to go through there, but now i have nooothing =(

Did you update to the latest firmware? If so it might be wise to see about reflashing that same firmware again with RSD. It's a pain in the arse and you might have to do it a few times to get it to work right, but it is possible. I had the latest build CM7 on my atrix and I reflashed to stock just to see if I could.
I'm not kidding though when I say it's a painful process, the phone might get stuck in a boot loop (where it goes to the M Dual Core logo and just reboots). If that happens you're still okay cause you can just keep reflashing the stock .sbf file till it takes (just don't downgrade).
Your call though.
Meh today its completely dead, i checked it today and all ihave is green led =(
Edit: Plugged it in wall charge instead of computer, back to M logo =(
Unlocked bootloader so best not to use RSD. Can you get fastboot? Reboot and hold volume up instead of down.

Find a friend with an Atrix and use their phone to charge your battery, or try going into an AT&T store and asking if you can charge it there on a display phone.
Im in canada =/ but one of my friend got an atrix, ill charge the battery with his phone BUT back when my battery was still charged i still couldnt get to fastboot/recovery power+up and power+down didnt worked neither. Is it hard bricked?
Il also ordered stuff to make a motorola factory cable, think i will be able to do anything with this?
Still seeking help guys! I loved my atrix please help me to recover it :/

Well, if you can't get into either recovery, fastboot, or rsd mode you won't be able to fix it. Make sure you're pressing the volume down button as you boot the phone, and keep it held down until the options come up.

Hello everyone!
I have a Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant, and I had successfully flashed Onecosmic's ICS_4.0.3.0(RC3.1)_Vibrant_Full.zip.
It worked fine for about a month, sometimes it did just black out and I had to remove battery and reboot it, but nothing serious.
But tonight it just went black and now when I try to power it on this is what happens...
1) "Vibrant" and "SAMSUNG" appear for about 2 seconds
2) Blacks out for about a second
3) "Vibrant" and "SAMSUNG" reappear for about 5 seconds
4) Blacks out. The bottom "buttons" light up if I touch them, and if I keep the power button pressed for 10 seconds it does reboot, but it doesn't boot up Android.
I dont know what I should do, if any of you know a way I could boot it up at least once more to backup some stuff, that would be great.
Any help will be appreciated... Thanks!
Try going to recovery and flash from again.
iPhone killer!!!
Yea, I might do that, I just didn't wanna lose all my data, and some recently-added phone numbers =/
Don't factory reset
iPhone killer!!!

did you make a nandroid? you could just use the advance recovery an put back the system without touching the data
or if you didn't you could make a backup the flash the Tom again then advance recover from cmw and put back the data
hope it helps, good luck
And as far as numbers go, you really should be syncing them with your Google account. Than You will never worry about this again.

You will probably need to Odin it back to stock. Read this thread. And while you are Odin'in check to make sure you are following each stop to the letter. As you probablly flashed a GB bootloader, to get your ViBrick into download you need to: 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. Then it should get into download mode. After that use Odin accordingly to flash back to stock.
Sometimes that just happens. Try letting it sit for a little while(10 minutes should be plenty). This happens to me sometimes and after a while it will randomly boot. It's very strange.

Hi My boss has a droid x and it stopped booting. He already got his replacement but he did not back his info up to google so he lost everything. The phone is completely stock. He said that first it gave him the black screen with the yellow triangle and the android then it would not boot. I know the software is partially working because when I plugged it in to the charger the battery animation comes up. When I plugged it into the pc I tried different button combos because I do not know how to get into recovery mode. So I think when I hit vol up and power I got a screen that said bootloader and power low and cannot configure software or something like that. Oh the screen was black and the letters were white. I am not familiar with this phone or motorolla in general I have and lg and a Samsung and both have unlocked bootloaders. So is there a way to get his info off this phone? The only thing I can think of is to some how install CWM and then mount the internal sdcard but I don't know how to do that with a locked bootloader. So if anyone knows anything please let me know.
Thank you,
Charlie
The black screen with the yellow triangle just means your in recovery mode. If it still goes to that when you turn it on just press both volume buttons and it will give you options. There's an option to reboot and you can factory reset. But I don't know if you can get the data.
Also to get into recovery just press home and power and when you see the m for Motorola release power and keep home held.
