Ok, so i got fed up with my phone freezing so i thought i would get SEUS to
re install the rom, (mr1, mr2 is not available to me yet).
The indicator got to about an inch along when a message popped up saying
update failed.
Now i cannot enter bootloader to try again, the phone will not turn on, SE refuse
to help saying it is not released in the UK so i am not entitled to support.
I have not yet had a reply from where i got it from.
Is there any way to get this piece of junk going again?
Thanks.
Try to charge your battery on another phone / external charger.
I encountered a similar problem when trying to flash the X2. I received the UPDATED FAILED error, pulled out the battery, Volume Down + Power and gave it another try.
SEUS shouldn't brick your phone, maybe it's a problem with your battery.
The battery is at about 80%, i have tried it in my X1 as it is the same battery.
I tried the X1's battery in the X2 as well.
When i press the volume down and power buttons it vibrates for a fraction of a
second and then just stays on a black screen.
Let's try then a forced bootmode connection.
1. Insert the data cable into the phone without the battery plugged in.
2. Open SEUS and go to the connection screen.
3. While the software is searching for the phone, keep VOL DOWN + POWER and insert the battery.
After the phone vibrates, the software should recognize the X2.
This procedure generally applies to dead phones and sometimes works.
Post the result.
Still nothing, i kept the buttons pressed for about 30 seconds, then vista popped up a message 'usb device not recognised' the phone stayed as it did before and SEUS did nothing.
Sadly the support excuse they are using is what a lot of manufacturers do if you are in an area where they don't support it. This is the downside of buying a device on eBay etc. before it is "officially" released in your area. Contact the point of sale and hopefully they can send it in for you. You might have to pay shipping costs.
Leave your battery out and unplugged for an hour and then try again after that to revive it.
I did not even realise it had not been released in the UK, i got it from a UK website.
I am still waiting for them to get back to me, as it is Sunday they won't be getting back to me till Mon Tue i would think.
SE were fast though, less than an hour to reply, about the only credit they get though.
I have had the battery out for more than an hour a few times so that does not work.
Thanks for the suggestions though, keep em coming if there are any more.

The exact same thing happened to me today, but I did not even get the update failed message (but I got the inch )
The phone is now bricked. No bootloader no nothing.
I guess you guys have the Singapore English versions? A lot of those retailers in the UK were getting them through Malaysia and so on. Then selling in the UK but not informing buyers that SE wont support it in the UK yet. It's really sad
It's a French X2, and I got it in France. I think I will have no issue with getting my X2 unbricked (or replaced), SE support is pretty good over here.
But if in the mean time someone has an idea or a trick on how to unbrick a X2 (other than the tips already listed in this thread), I would be happy to test it

Learn to "Read" and use the "Search" function newb.
Hi!
This has happened to me also. The solution was to connect the original charger (I usually charge from the USB port on my PC).
Try this:
1. Disconnect all cables from phone.
2. Remove battery.
3. Insert battery.
4. Connect original SE charger and charge for 5 minutes.
5. With the charger still connected, press volume down and then power on simultaneously - hold until SE logo appears.
If not working, repeat from step 1 several times (i tried 3 times before it finally worked).
6. Connect PC USB and run SEUS update.
Seems to me like the phone does not always charg from USB, and that when it enters the "black-screen-after-short-vibration-after-power-on"-mode it does not charge while in this mode.
Mod edit: not rom dev related, moved to general
well... when it say update fail but if save the new rom to ur phone then its fine, take the battery out and restart ur phone.. it should load the new OS.. my one says fail everytime.. so no problem for me
I updated my Fascinate yesterday OTA to DL09 from Verizon and now when I connect to my laptop I get the big bad blue screen stating that it has stopped to protect my computer from damage. I have rebooted 3 time without any positive result. Anyone else having this issue or know of any fix. Thanks
Try putting the phone into debug then try it.
Z an B son!
Yes, I have the same problem...
and we are not the only one's .... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=911543
I am not able to connect to my MAC
Tried factory reset .. still didnt work...
The Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) is not the same as the problems that people are having with mounting USB.
I have been all over forums today and this is the first I have heard of a BSOD.
In the BSOD will be an error number. Something like a Fatal Error has occurred at xxxxxxxx in module yyyyyyyy
Google the exact error message and see what you come up with.
Fixed he issue
I got the problem fixed. What I found was that the phone was showing up as a cd rom drive and by doing this my PC automatically started opening up CD rom software on my pc that was totally not compatible with the phone LOL. Isnt it just like Verizon for pushing more of there crap on us to screw up the works.
Thanks for everyone's help.
My galaxy s was hanging on boot (at the big S logo). This wasn't the first time and last time I had tried everything and reflashed. Yet this time odin crashed (windows gave me the 'Odin.exe stopped working' notification) and my phone powered off...
Now it won't give me anything, not download mode, OS or recovery (screen stays black, not even sure if the phone boots at all, hardware buttons also stay off)
Couldn't find anything usefull, any thoughts?
Cheers
Try the JIG to force it into download mode and try again. If odin crashes again, try flashin within windows safe mode. Sometimes it prevents crashing

Will that force the device to boot too? If thats true I will give it a shot this week, hopefully. See if i can get hold of one somewhere.
Thanks for the quick reply

I Think this is the problem, you may have tried flashing when you had little battery charge and that will cause serious problems as bootloader would have failed.
your only option would be read the My Android Solutions about Problem:- Cannot enter Download or Recovery Mode

EDIT: I thought it was weird indeed that my phone powered off, since it had a full/near full battery (at least it told me)
Great thread ! Yet unfortunately none of the steps work for me up untill the JIG, I'll have to get hold onto one or make a homemade one (only got a single micro-usb at the moment, so that'll be a sacrifice) Havn't really got a lot of time on my hands but eventually i'll have to give the JIG a shot.
Realize that it seems like the phone isn't powered at all.
EDIT: no "usb device detected" notifications/sounds in windows when plugged in (for adb)
Also: My volt-o-meter told me that my battery outputted 6+ volts... can't seem to reproduce at the time of writing this though....

could be a USB cable failure (guessing) try
2) Problem:- Cannot connect to PC or Unknown Device, getting Code 43 or any other code or NO response when using USB cable in My Android Solutions
did you tried to remove the battery several seconds holding down the powerbutton and put it back again?
btw i also had issues with a galaxy note and a broken usb cable. screen was black because of an empty battery, you should try an other battery maybe a friends one
Soo i accidentally disabled the dev options on my samsung galaxy s7 edge and then decided to restart my phoe because i didnt notice and now im stuck with an error that says "custom binary blocked by FAP lock" now i looked around the internet on ways to fix this but the thing is that i cant really connect my phone to my computer, yes i did the volume down+power+home button thing and i connected it to my pc but nothing happened, odin didnt recognize my phone and my computer reads it as "gadget serial" i tried installing the usb drivers and all but i keep getting errors, its like my phone doesnt realy wants to cooperate.
Anyways i was wondering if any of you could help me with this please, i beg of you if anyone has an answer im willing to try, also if you need more info just ask, ill be glad to provide, thanks!
Anyone?...
Well i managed to fixed it so heres the solution for all of you that may come across this,
Soo basically make sure youre pc is fully updated, it must have all window drivers installed (i used windows 10) all window updates, make sure all the pieces of your pc are updated and then connect your phone and for the love of god be patient
I take it this is you're first time encountering something like this... at any rate, welcome to the forums.
Hello everyone, so here i am trying to flash a friend's a1000, but unfortunately, i'm unable to do so because when i try to enter the bootloader by holding the volume up key before plugging in the usb cable to start the process, it only connects to the computer for about 9 seconds, and then automatically disconnects, i get a coloured screen afterwards, and i would be forced to restart the device, i first suspected that it was the cable, but i was wrong, since i've already tried a bunch of cables, all with the same exact result, i also used 3 different computers, and i still got the same result, please respond if you have any idea.

you need drivers to flash it. i flashed mine in september 2021 and most drivers didnt work. i ended up getting drivers with the same name for a diffrent phone and the flash worked. so try doing that it might end up working. i dont how i did it but it was really hard

I appreciate that, i'll let you know if i find a compatible rom for the device, i think the drivers are called CDC drivers if i remember correctly, i don't have the files, but i'm almost sure it's CDC, i'll be grateful if you can send me a link to that video.

Do you guys still have the files?
I managed to get the proper drivers and the phone is seen by the computer and I manage to flash it , but the phone is completly dead after the flash .
The power button wont do anything, plugging it into the charger doesnt do anything, I can only reflash it by connecting it to the pc while holding the volume up & down buttons.
Checking on old forums, aparently there are two versions of the phone , single sim and dual sim.
Also the revision number seems to be important for some reason, so mines is dual sim , revision 61 .
I believe this was the firmware that was on it previously, although the phone remained stuck at the boot logo : a1000_usr_s29798_1511241708_sprd7731_ro , but i cant find it anywhere , so I flashed the one you guys had , but now the phone is a dead brick after the flashing ends . Nothing on the screen, no response from any of the buttons, just dead.

sorry, i deleted my lenovo a1000 files to focus on other phones. from what i have heard that issue is common with that phone. i know someone who flashed the firmware on their a1000 and got stuck in the same issue as you. i tried to help them unbrick it but it seems to be impossible. i think you need to do a board replacement if you want to use that phone again. also, i dont think that the phone revisions are that important cause i managed to get lenovo a1000m firmware on my lenovo a1000.
