[Q] stuck badly.. help please.

hello everyone.
im new with iconia a501 because its my friend's.
we tryed to update it, but its stuck in bootloop.
update we installed is oficial ota 4.0.1.
everything looked fine untill it rebooted. then system ui crashed. and it keeps rebooting and crashing .
I dont know what to do. I really feel his pain in loss.
sd card is not working, wich is not hellping.
dont have cpuid, so cant flash.
no root or cwm installed or backup...
is there any possibility to revive?
or is there any specialist in uk, who could fix it?
I think I read all threads in xda foroms. and everything I could find in google.
can't apply any method found.
any ideas? or suggestions anyone?
any help is appreciated.
I'd be trying a full wipeto fix System.ui from crashing. If u can not boot, you'll need to factory data reset....reset pin + pwr+ lock switch, tab should vibrate then erase data and cache.
Also boot while holding volume up button...do u see a fastboot menu or "skrilax_cz bootloader" screen...just to see which bootloader is on the tab.
You say sd card won't work.....wot doesn't work..check both sets of drivers are installed. ...Acer and android ones.
Hopefully the data reset will get u going...If not there's still few things we can try.
You can get yr cpuid/sbk thru apx mode using ubuntu, there's a sticky in general forum.
Thank you very much I'll try everything tonight.

If you have CWM and can still access it, flash a ROM made for your phone (you never said what model). Just make sure it is a ROM / Kernel that is made for your phone and make sure it is LOKIed (or use LOKI-DOKI) if it is an AT&T S4. Or you can always go to SamMobile and get the factory firmware for your phone's version and flash it via ODIN, once it successfully flashed, do a factory reset in stock recovery.
If you don't understand any part of what I am telling you, it is because you haven't read enough, so before asking any more questions or doing anything else to your phone, take a while to search, read, and learn. If you have read, and you understand what I have said, Good luck.

Thank you Sir it worked Great!
You really need to read everything before you try just flashing something. Otherwise you will have issues like this all the time. Or search.

[Q] NEXUS 4 BROKEN? Please help!!!

Hi guys, sorry if this is a "noob" question or that its in the wrong section or whatever, I am new here and this is my first post so please bear with me.
So today I was trying to install cyanogen mod which is so hard? And I did something wrong and I went into recovery mode to reset the phone and accidently deleted the OS... Now the phone is pretty much useless. I researched it and they say do a factory reset with odin(whatever that is, I dont know) and then the phone should be back to normal... I dont know how to do this and am panicking! Please help me get my phone back to normal? I wanted to install cyanogen mod because I wanted the theme to be black and white instead of black and cyan like it is on stock and I wanted a new kernel to improve performance and battery life which sucks on a stock nexus 4. Any help much appreciated...
Also, Nexus 4 Toolkit v2.0 doesn't have android 4.3 on it yet? It says it only updates on the pro version? I DESPERATELY NEED HELP PLEASE!
Thank you everyone, sorry for being so noob and urgent, cheers!

My computer cannot detect the Nexus 4... I cant do anything like even load anything... I only go to recovery mode... I don't even know how to flash a rom? I deleted everything so theres no rom to flash anyway and my PC not detecting it is not helping.
Download and install this: http://www.wugfresh.com/
Follow the instructions on the driver installation and choose the RAW drivers. Seem to work better than the other options. Leave the phone in the bootloader. Don't touch the phone besides plugging it into the computer. Once everything is done driver wise, choose Soft-bricked/bootloop. Be sure that you have the factory image from Google itself. Doing this method will reset everything. So be sure to do any backups if you can. I'm not at fault if you ruin your phone even more.

Flash stock ROM using fastboot. There is a sticky out here on how to. Good luck.

Thanks, I've tried it but I don't know how to? May you give me steps please? USB Debugging is not on because I cannot access the phone but the phone is still unlocked but it wont work without USB Debugging... Please help me? Please?!

Click on this link and read the instructions...then read them again and follow to the letter. http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/ Andel7539 was pointing you in the same direction, just be patient and read the instructions. There is an option to reload the original O/S, then you can move on from there. Odin is a Samsung interface, not what you need for an LG phone. For what it's worth I did the same thing before by accident but had a backup (nandroid) just in case of emergency's which you should also have for situations such as this. When in doubt Google and read, Google and read!
Thank you... I still cannot do it because I cannot enable USB debugging. I've seen all the guides but they all require USB debugging and I cannot get into the phone to enable it? If I try to start the phone up it will just be stuck at the google logo but I can get into the fastboot menu and recovery menu too. Please help?
Also, do I need Cyanogen mod to use kernels? Or do I just need to root? I only wanted Cyanogen mod in the first place for better performance and battery life but I hear there are kernels that allow you to have both? Please guide me through this guys, I am very noob, sorry about this. Cheers!
Just for the record, bootloader/fastboot mode have nothing to do with usb debugging. Do you know at least how to boot to the bootloader? (Power + Volume Keys)
You don't need usb debugging to save your phone. Follow the instructions and you will do it.
And no, you don't need CM to use custom kernels, just a custom recovery to flash them and an version of the kernel compatible with your Android version.
Search about how to install adb on your PC and how to "sideload" zips in it. Then sideload the CM zip. Or search how to use fastboot and use it to flash the google factory image on your phone.

Thank you guys, I did it! I fixed it with the soft bricked option, thank you guys!
Also, do you guys know how to get a custom recovery? I try to go into recovery mode from the fastboot menu but it comes up with the red triangle on top of the android? I really want to install TWRP or CWM to install a custom kernel, please help?
Cheers!

With the fastboot you can do it, or, if you're already rooted or running CM, install GooManager from PlayStore, go to options and select "Install OpenRecovery Script".

did you wipe the system?
boot into fastboot, and flash stock image.
Yes that will help... What I've learned from my previous phone, i.e. Sony Ericsson Walkman W8 is never wipe data/ factory reset your phone until you have a ROM ready for it...!! I had the same issue with it but I could pull out the memory card and put a custom ROM into it... So then I flashed the ROM.. And had no problem booting! So... I downloaded a ROM for my nexus 4 before rooting it!!
Just shared my experience... Someone might benefit from it!

Doing a factory reset doesn't affect the ROM.
Anyway, flash the factory system image and you'll be good.

Well it happended with my vwalkman. And also with my brother's xperia ion while rooting. I put CWM on it. And by mistake after the factory reset I rebooted the system and it got stuck on the sony logo... Even the recovery was gone... I had to fix it by pushing a custom kernel with a recovery in it.. Also it happened with my friend's htc explorer... It was stuck on the htc logo.. Cz he wiped the system after flashing the supersu file and then rebooted.. But he still had the recovery..! But that was fixed by simply inhaling a ROM!! I never posted this anywhere as I couldnt find any similar threads...

Need help asap

hey guys, so unfortunately i managed to brick my g2 but im hoping theres a possible fix. the way i bricked it was i was rooted of course with custom recovery TWRP installed. anyways, how i bricked it was i had a software update and i accidentally hit install which i know is not good when rooted, then it got stuck in a boot-loop and i thought i could fix it by wiping the entire internal storage, well that was stupid of me and now i have no options to install anything when i click install when im in TWRP. i tried to boot into download mode but it goes straight to TWRP. NO LUCK, i really was hoping i could fix this myself as it seems to be software related, not hardware. i won my G2 from LG themselves during a giveaway so i dont have any warranty so i dont want to send it in to lg to fix as it would be costly. PLEASE HELP id really appreciate it.
Have you tried getting into download mode by powering off, then holding volume up and plugging in the power?
