[Q] Stuck at bootloader unlock screen - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Update: I format the Windows 8 OS and install the Windows 7, everything works and there is no problem anymore.
I entered the fastboot mode and use a unlock tool to help me into unlock procedure, the instrucion shows that I should use the volume keys and power key to select and confirm, but none of these keys responded, meanwhile they work perfectly at any other situation. I think the phone just stuck in this screen rather than the keys fail at the step. BTW, I update 4.1.2 via OTA.
Could anyone shows his wisdom or experience?

Hold down power button till shuts off , while still holding power hold down , down volume key let go power then press and hold power key while still holding volume down , should restart bootloader ..... Pm me if don't work
This is y no one should use toolkits

I had a similar issues on my nexus s
I read on a thread to keep the phone near a source of heat. so i turned on the stove and kept the phone 20cms away from the heat , and ran to the pc hit commands and voila it worked xD
Wouldn't suggest this on a Nexus 4 though

Nope, this doesn't work. But if this does work, I would definitely buy the Google guys some lava since they love heat so much.

Any way to save my phone?

I was running Fusion 1.1 recently, and when the Core v1 kernel was released, I flashed the 1.2ghz version, but experienced freezes.
I figured my phone couldnt handle the OC, so I flashed the 1ghz version, my phone started freezing worse. I tried rebooting and it froze during the Galaxy S boot animation.
I then adb'd into recovery and tried flashing Fusion 1.1 again, but my phone froze during the flash and now it wont boot past the Vibrant screen. When plugged into the computer, it only boots up enough the show the battery charge screen, but freezes before it even displays a battery level.
ADB doesnt seem to recognize any connected devices.
Maybe Im getting the hardware button combos wrong, as far as I know, a device that wasnt previously hardware locked cant become locked, right? I know for a fact mine wasnt locked before.
If someone could post the exact hardware button combos, cause Ive seen conflicting posts on this. Or any help for that matter, Im desperate.
try turning the phone off, holding volume up and volume down, while holding those two plug the usb cable in.
see if that gets you into download mode.

Nope, just pops up the battery screen and freezes.
A question about hardware locked phones, the combo Im using to get into recovery is, hold down vol up + vol down + power, and when the Vibrant screen disappears, release the power button, but keep holding the volume buttons.
However when I do this, the Vibrant screen just pops up a second time, which wont happen unless Im holding the power button. If I am to take "hardware-locked" literally, then the power button wouldnt even do that, right?

Hold Vol+/Vol- and Power. Release Power when first Vibrant screen comes up. Works for me..

I just get stuck on the Vibrant screen.
Unless your Vibrant is actually hardware locked, this method should get you into download mode. I have always entered download mode using this method.
1- Power off your phone.
2- Make sure you have the correct drivers installed on your PC for the phone. (I assume you do if you were using ADB).
3- Open Odin on your PC. (I recommend using Odin3 v1.3 or higher, v1.0 has issues)
4- Remove the battery from your Vibrant.
5- Plug the USB cable into your computer.
6- Plug the USB cable into your Vibrant.
7- With one hand (holding the Vibrant on it's side) hold down the Volume up, Volume down, and power buttons all at the same time.
8- While watching the screen, and holding all 3 buttons, place the battery back in the vibrant.
9- Once the battery has been inserted you will likely see one of two things, the "swirly" thinking icon (most common) or the battery icon will pop up. Keep holding the buttons until the initial icon disappears and you see a full black screen is shown.
10- As soon as you see that black screen, release ONLY the power button, continue to hold the volume keys and if done correctly, the Vibrant will go into download mode.
11- Verify Odin sees the device. There will be a box that turns yellow with a Com port shown
12- Load up the .pit & .tar files for the stock rom and flash away. (May have to use re-partition, not sure though)
Hope this helps/works! Good Luck!

Followed the directions (used Odin 3 1.70), but when I release the power button at the black screen, the battery screen just comes back up again.

You are 100% sure you aren't hardware locked? My wifes phone was hardware locked and I couldn't get her's into download mode with that method. If you are hardware locked you may have to make a jig to get up and running....i should have bookmarked that thread....now I have to search.

I havent had to use to the hardware keys in a while, so maybe I am.
I thought you couldnt use volume keys to navigate recovery if you were HW locked?
If it turns out I am locked, do you think Id be able to access download with this method?

This kernel nearly bricked me much like the problem you're experiencing. It does seem like you may be hardware locked...it locked me out of recovery with the use of 3 hardware buttons, but luckily Odin came through.
You do have the samsung drivers installed on your computer correct? This might be the reason why you can't get into download mode. I also noticed that even though I got into download mode it did not immediately show the COM notification showing I was connected...I hit start anyway and it immediately started flashing the other kernel I used to recover (JAC OC/UV 1.0). There is something seriously wrong with this kernel on certain Vibrants and I don't think I'll be flashing it again, even after updates.

I would definitely have to agree with you there, it froze during a flash with me, which is anything but safe.
Either way, I went out and bought the correct resistors, but I've never done any soldering so I got the micro usb breakout board since its a little easier. I suppose that will come in a week and then Ill have to put it all together and see if the homemade jig works. Wish me luck!

Did your phone get hot? One must be careful when flashing oc kernel. It is quite possible to ruin your phone if the temperature gets out of control...

Good luck man. I too had Fusion 1.1, flashed Core 1.2 which caused freezes, I flashed back to stock and when attempting to reload Fusion I messed up the USB and it bricked, and I was hardware locked. I made the "Jig" and it worked fine after a couple tries plugging it in, got to download and flashed back to stock without any problems.

Strange, I release after the second Vibrant screen.
OP: it certainly sounds like you're hardware locked. And no, I don't think it means you can't navigate recovery, it means the buttons don't work when trying to get into recovery in the first place (I was hardware locked and couldn't enter recovery/download without adb; I used the flashable fix to remove the hardware lock).

[Q] Can enter bootload but nothing else.

So recently my phone went into Deep Hibernation so I plugged it into a charger and held down Power, Volume down.
I managed to get into the boot loader screen but only the volume keys are responsive to select options but the power button is unresponsive.
I have no idea on how to start the phone or turn it off anymore, what can I do?
Is your bootloader unlocked. If it is use fastboot reboot. That should boot your device
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
Well I have no idea if it's in Fastboot or not. Currently the phone is stuck in the mode where there's an arrow pointing towards the power button and 2 white arrows with representation to the volume buttons. I think it's in Fastboot right now but again, the power button isn't working at all to select anything.
I'm not too familiar with these terms. All I know is that I have the phone unlocked and Paranoid Android installed.

Sounds like you're in fastboot mode. From a command prompt on your pc and with the usb cable plugged between your phone and the pc, type fastboot reboot. It should boot your device. Hopefully that will clear what ever is causing your power button not to work

Well I managed to reboot it and get back phone's home screen. Though I still have the issue of the fact that my lock/power button is completely busted and/or unresponsive.
Should I just install an app that will serve as an alternative to the power button? By now my Warranty would've already expired and I would have no way of getting it repaired. Are there checks I can make to see whether or not it's a software or hardware fault?

My best guess is it's a hardware issue. A local cell phone repair shop can put in a new power button without a lot of cost.

can't enter into fastboot

Hello i have recently tried to return my phone from cyanogenmod into the stock rom using this thread: "https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/general/guide-return-to-stock-relock-bootloader-t3489110" and my phone got stuck in the process while making the command "fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img". And now my device is stuck on boot loop showing the cyanogenmod loading screen.
Anyway now i found a way to get to stock but for that i need to get my device into fastboot. THE PROBLEM IS that my device can't get now into fastboot! i have tried using adb commands but the adb doesn't recognize the device. I have tried fastboot commands but again it doesn't recognize the device. I also tried button combinations, but it didn't work.
Until the incidence i have used to press the power button+ vol down keys to get into fastboot mode, but now it doesn't work. I suspect that it doesn't work since in order to get into fastboot with the button combination i need to first get the device turned off. But when i connect my device to the charger it shows the battery charging screen and the device is stuck on that screen even if it has disconnected from the charger, and it will keep on that screen until the battery has depleted. I have tried shutting it down using the power button but then my phone gets into a loop with the cyanogenmod loading screen, and even if i turn it off it restarts instead.
p.s I have used to think that my fastboot was deleted but on an other thread i have been told that as long as i see the cyanogenmod loading screen of the OS that means i have a boot-loader.
Please help!
I want to get into Fastboot on my Moto Pure.
Thanks a lot
Eden.
Power down 1st
Try volume down & power key together. That will get you into fastboot directly.
Oops just seen that, my bad, I wont respond anymore.

I think @edenah is saying it just gets stuck at the loading screen. If the battery discharges all the way and the device is plugged in, the battery symbol shows and after the charger is unplugged, the battery charging doesn't go away until the battery dies again or the power button is pressed (which leaves us right back to where we started)

Try this:
Hold power button for 10-20 sek, when screen will turn off hold only vol-(at bootloop screen).
You should flash stock without "oem" commands.

It recognizes it as portable usb device.
And well. I have bought the device in the us but i live outside of the US. so its bit problematic to return it now. Some help could do the trick!

If i connect it to my computer while pressing the power button and the vol down button and keep pressing it, the device stays turned off!
Now i'm trying to play with it, to turn the bootloader. so far the classical power and vol combo doesn't work.

I am stuck. No button combination works. I suspect that the device isn't really off but the display is just closed. As even to open up the device takes a reallly long press on the power button.
if it got interrupted while flashing bootloader, you're pretty much not going to be able to do anything.
motorola service center is likely the only place that can fix it.

Lost cause? No, probably not... Do you know anyone in the US you trust well enough to receive the phone from repair and ship it to you where ever you are? I believe that is all you need. The US service center cannot ship outside of North America (maybe US), but they can receive packages from anywhere. If you had a US contact that could receive the device and forward it on to you it might be worth it to get it fixed if it is still under warranty, if it isn't, then it might not be worth fixing. Lots of things to consider here.

Stock Mi A1 locked on Fastboot screen

Ok, here's as much info as I can give as my phone is locked up:
Stock Mi A1 with 1st Oreo update: December patch level
I have not tried to load anything custom on it, nor have I even loaded the apps to do so.
I took my phone out of my pocket and it is locked on on a screen that says Fastboot.
Power button does not work. Long press power button does not work. Power+UP volume button does not work. Power+UP+DOWN volume buttons do not work.
Plugging the phone into the computer via USB port does nothing.
The battery is non-removable, so I can't pull it to reset.
I am at a complete loss as to what happened, why it happened, and how to resolve it. The phone was working fine this morning. I took it out of my pocket to use it and then discovered the issue. I live in Thailand, and there are no local service centers for Xiaomi, so hopefully someone will have an idea of how to fix the issue.
Any help, ideas or suggestions would be MOST appreciated!
Regards,
KB
UPDATE: I tried to restart the phone via the power button while it was plugged into the computer via USB. Holding the power button down for 10 seconds (guesstimate) did force a restart. This was NOT the case when not plugged in. In any event, if anyone has an idea of what happened and why, I would really like to know! I am wondering if there was some sort of long press key combo or something that happened while it was in my pocket.
Sorry for replying to my own post, but I am totally confused by this issue. I did a lot of searching and reading on Fastboot, and they ALL said that to get there, you had to enable Developer Tools on your phone, download a program for your computer, and then connect the phone via USB.
Here's the thing: I have a photo of the screen, so this is not some hallucination!
1) I DID NOT have Developer Tools enabled on the device. (I do now as I enabled it to see if it was already enabled...it wasn't)
2) I DID NOT download and install an ADB program for the computer.
3) I DID NOT (before the issue) connect the phone to the computer via USB.
So my question is how the h*ll did I get into Fastboot?????
This is really concerning as maybe Xiaomi has an issue similar to the root issue One Plus had and I happened to pocket dial the right combo???? In any event, it does not give me a warm fuzzy about what is going on behind the scenes here!
Any thoughts or info appreciated.

To get phone into fastboot mode you have to hold power off + volume down button. Might have happened in tight pocket.

Thanks mysiak...in all my reading, nowhere was that mentioned! And yeah, it was in a pocket pressed up against a seat, so could easily have pocket dialed that combo.
Also, it is not easy to find the solution when it is locked there. I THOUGHT I had held the power off button long enough when trying to get out of Fastboot, but maybe missed it by a second or two. My solution was just to hold down the power button until the phone turned off. Whether that is the correct solution, I don't know as I still have not found anything about getting into and out of Fastboot without a computer.

Power+volume down button is the usual way how to get into fastboot mode. From a PC you can type "adb reboot bootloader", but many prefer just using phone buttons combo (myself including). If you want to get out of fastboot, you either hold power off button until phone vibrates shortly - this works in whatever mode, even if powered on, basically it's "emergency shutdown" as we don't have removable battery. Or if you are connected to a PC, type "fastboot reboot".
Long story short, you did it right
Btw. if you will hold power+volume up combo long enough, you'll end in stock recovery mode with "no command" on the screen. Don't panic, just hold power off button and then start phone normally
I had the same problem and plugged into the computer via USB and holding the power button down for 10 seconds did force a restart. and the phone is OK since then!!! Thank you you saved my time!!!
Thank you.
Picked up my Mi A1 this morning and it had the beautiful FASTBOOT icon on the screen. The phone has been lying on my desk for several weeks without a SIM. When I could not clear the FASTBOOT message I Googled for a solution and this thread was the result. I just wanted to record my grateful thanks. I plugged the phone into a computer USB socket and held the power button until the error message disappeared, as recommended by KB_Thailand..
XDA doing what it aims to do.:good:
It is always nice to find solutions instead of even more questions. Glad that it helped!
After the initial glitches, the A1 has been pretty dang dependable.
I still am using my A1. The A2 and A3 (someone needs to be fired over that monstrosity) left me flat. I am hoping against hope that the A4 will be 'the one', otherwise I am going to have to look for something other than Xiaomi.

One plus 6t "Black Screen Of Death"

Hello all,
First of all I will start and say, I AM NEVER GOING TO BUY ONEPLUS EVER AGAIN!
So yesterday I was using the phone normally when all of a sudden it's screen turned black for no reason! Just like that. The phone was responsive, so I thought it was a bug and I restarted it by pressing the power button for 10 seconds, I thought it will solve it out but to my surprise it didn't, and the screen is black till now.
I am using "Tool All In One" so when I turn on the phone I get indication about it state. So I managed to get into fastboot state ,and "adb unauthorized" state.
I tried installing recovery mode but it didn't even boot into it,Its turn the phone off.
My bootloader is unlocked.
I tried using "scrcpy" to mirror my screen but it doesn't allow me because adb is unauthorized and I can't authorized with black screen.
Do you guys have any suggestions ? I don't care about this trash phone I only care about the data,after I extract the data I going to throw it off the 12 floor.
Thank you guys ! <3
Is it possible that you have accidentally put the device into EDL mode?
Try the following steps:
1. Make sure the device is unplugged.
2. Hold the power and volume up keys for at least 30 seconds.
You should feel the device vibrate and reboot into Android.

Had this couple of times since I'm on clean LOS 19.1.
Rebooted using step 2 but don't permit to know why...

Hi ! Thanks for reply.
This method didn't worked either ... when I am playing with the ringtone button on the side of the device its responding so I am guessing the phone is on,However, still no picture..
