my phones rooted and I have the Regaw mod ROM load on there, and its been good for a couple days now. Last night I went to sleep and forgot to charge my phone so figured the battery died. I plugged in it for about 10-15mins or so to turn it on and all it does is hang on the HTC bootscreen!!!! then I try to boot into recovery and all I get is at the bottom of the screen it says "Build : RA-HEROC-v1.5.2"!!!! Does this mean my phone is bricked!!!???
Remove the battery. Put it back in. Try to boot.
There are other solutions. As long as it turns on there should be a way to unbrick. Try RUU as well.
i tried the battery pull a couple times im trying the RUU now but what the hell could have bricked my phone over night?
I think what the guy in the 2nd post is trying to say, is that if it is booting, it isn't bricked.
It would be bricked if you couldn't do anything with it, then its like a brick.
I know it is probably a bit scary but ify ou can boot it at all, you most likely can fix it.
Did you make any changes (remove any files?) yesterday at some point, and this would have been the first restart?
I don't know, it could be a number of things.
It is probably not bricked. I bricked my G1 so I have some experience in that area. If you can boot into recovery it is not bricked. When I bricked my G1 I couldn't even get to recovery. let it charge a bit. Th battery is probably just dead. OR. take the battery out and plug it in and try to boot. Let it boot for about 15 mins or so.
no i didnt change anything at all, except my sd card said it was corrupted after unplugging it from my PC improperly. and I didnt reformat it right away. I just tried to RUU and i got an Error 170 a USB connection error

Where does the recovery image read from? I know we put it in the root folder of the SD, but does it actually boot from there? Could be your issue...
are you runnings apps2sd or whatever it is called?
yes that possibly could be my issue!! how can i fix my sd card or what should I do?
no I am not running apps to SD

I'm not so sure. I am pretty green when it comes to all this rooting stuff. I'm just trying to help figure it out.
Maybe try booting without the SD card in the phone? Could help to narrow down the issue.
I'm sure someone with more knowledge could help.
yea im booting it now with NO SD and its still hangs at the HTC screen

Can you try plugging it into your USB connection and getting into the ADB shell (in CMD) to see if you can access the phone even though it seems stuck.
I know I did this and was able to monitor the logcat when I thought it was stuck, but it was really just doing a whole bunch of stuff.
Just an idea....again, I'm just fishing here trying to help you out.
it tells me error: device not found
i went to (CMD) then cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools and then adb devices
you might have to manually rewipe your recovery partition in cmd. I had to do that after the official ruu messed up my phone- it wouldn't boot at all, I had to use the fastboot command: fastboot oem boot, then using my nandroid backup restored my recovery.

im kinda of a noob at some of this so kinda need to explain it out lol ...I just booted to recovery and pressed *vol up* and got me to Fastboot Mode then it says press <Menu> to reset device, should I do that option?
okay i pressed menu and all that got me was it hanging again at the HTC screen.. should i do all of this with my SD card in or out of the phone?
When you boot it and it gets into the "partial" recovery mode, does the PC see the phone? Can you put RA-Heroc-1.6.2 onthe SD card from there? If so, I'd try flashing the new recovery from ADB...very easy...and see if that gets you a bit further along.
You might also try cheating a bit. See if you can pull a nandroid from the SD card (might have to do this with a card reader), then get Flipz's Kitchen and restore the Nandroid after you boot into recovery.
Just a couple of things I'd try....from experience...

okay this is what happens i press vol down and power then is load where the androids are on skateboards and it says press <HOME> for recovery along with a Fastboot mode and Simlock option. I press home and then I see the HTC screen for about 30 secs and then where I normally would see the recovery menu with all the green writing i see all black except at the bottom is says
Build : RA-heroc-v1.5.2

To follow this and break it down a bit more for you:
1. Plug in USB with phone off
2. Turn on phone and get it to the "blank" recovery screen.
3. Run through the flashing of the recovery rom image again (see HERE) but start at step 13 or so.
Try doing the above post..
Hello XDA-devs forums,
I'm having an issue since yesterday.
I have rooted my Huawei Ideos X5, and it ran fine for a day or so.
However, when my battery ran out it shut down into a completely blue screen.
When I tried booting it again, this just showed me a blue screen as well.
Now, I fixed this issue by connecting the phone to my PC after booting it with the Vol+ and Vol- pressed.
(So you get the pink/purple screen)
However, when I opened the phone on my PC, all I saw was a "239 MB" "empty" space, and it should have ~2GB..
I placed a backup copy I saved of my "image" folder in that 239 MB storage, and it booted.
However, today I hooked it up to my PC again to see if it magically changed..
And I couldn't access the 239 MB space anymore.
When I tried fixing the issue with a reboot of the phone, that just caused it to get stuck in a booting loop.
So now I'm stuck with a phone that keeps trying to boot itself,
and I can't access it on my windows PC.
I can, however, access 4 different folders of the phone on my linux notebook.
Now, my question is: can someone with a good understanding of problems like these please help me out?
I'm getting kind of fed up with it, as I've only got the phone for 2 days now.
Thank you in advance, and thank you for taking the time to read this.
Have you tried removing the battery for 5 minutes and then putting it back in?
After this, what happens when you press VOL+ and Power?
How about if you press VOL+, VOL- and Power, without the USB cable?
Hello Katu, thank you for posting.
Regarding your questions:
Yes, I have tried to take out the battery for 5+ minutes- it didn't change anything to the situation unfortunately..
If I press VOL+ and Power at the same time, the device boots into recovery mode.
In this I have tried to format the device in order to reset it to factory defaults, but this did not help either.
When I press VOL+, VOL- and Power, the phone boots into the pink/purple screen.
Can you try a custom recovery and a custom rom? I want to see if your onboard flash is borked.
u8800,cm7,[email protected]
I had the same when my phone got f*ucked up. Put the image folder, than download official rom, like b138 and install it. then check your imei. There is a change that it will be 0.

Well, I used an original ROM:
U8800 V100R001C00B136(Overseas General version)
And that resulted in the boot.img being corrupted, so I can't even overwrite that anymore.
Also, this is what I see when I hit VOL+, VOL- and Power at the same time to boot into safe mode, and connect it to my PC.

I installed the official B136 rom, and after it rebooted, it would just hang on a black screen.
(it used to show the IDEOS or Android logo when it booted)
Hmm mine came with this Rom
U8800 V100R001C00B135SP01 ( general )
Looking at your name you're from the Netherlands ( so am I )
where did you get this 136 version from ?
I would try to put this one on it
You have to put the 'dload' folder into the root of your SD Card,
then boot into boot-loader, after that it'll automatically flash back to the stock Rom.
1 Format SD card
2 On the SD card, create "dload" folder
3 Put the unzipped Rom into "dload" folder
4 Then boot to bootloader (pink screen)
Yes, mine came with that version as well.
However, I couldn't find it anymore and thus downloaded the version I said earlier.
Also, I did everything as you described, except step 4.
You have to boot to recovery instead of bootloader. (VOL+ and Power)
Anyways, I managed to get ClockworkMod's recovery.img on my phone,
and from there on install a custom ROM on the phone, which magically got it working again - even though it didn't work earlier.
Thank you for reading my thread and taking the time to reply to it.
My issue has been resolved.
just for the record, flashing a stock rom is different from flashing a custom rom..
the 4 steps described by Gman2oo6 is the correct way to flash a stock rom (and it is written clearly in the document that is in the stock rom zip file)
[edit]
step (1) is not a necessary step though..
Yeah, I noticed that.
What I did was format my SDcard with FAT32,
and put a custom rom (update.zip) on the SDcard.
I then booted ClockworksMod Recovery and installed the custom rom from the SDcard.
When I tried installing the stock rom, I just followed the PDF file's instructions that came with the stock rom.
hey i udated to GB 2.3.4 (official)and i didnt like the it cuz the wifif ddnt work and the bluetooth also the DATA so itryed to downgrade to 2.2.2 original official and it did the 2/2 steps intalled and when it restarted it did not want to turn on all that happened was it vibrated and thats all so i left it on like that and when the battery died i plugged it in to the AC and the LED turned on red and the touch kkeys also but not the screen so i really NEED help!
Try to turn it on with lead connected but no battery and see if you can start it.
My battery also went dead flat this morning and I couldn't get it started at all till I tried this. Once I got it started the only thing I could do was quickly pop in the batery and let it charge. Just leave off the cover till you get it going.
I have to add that I did not have the problem of a failed update to deal with but it may at least get you started
i tryed it
nope nothin good happened all that happens is a blank screen with nothin on ,LED is off and the touch keys are off. it justz vibrates and when i put the battery it turn the LED on to red and the touch keys turn on but then like 5 min later the LED and keys turn off

ok heres what i did i wanted to upgrade my phone to the newest version GB 2.3.4.So what i did was download the update and i followed the installation steps i successfully updated to Gb 2.3.4. so like i was checking how it look and the new feature but when i wanted to go on the android market i went to setting and turn on the wifi and it said Error and then i tried the Bluetooth and it said Error also so then i put my SIMs card in and i was like imma use DATA then and when i restarted my phone it had service but no HSPA+ or Edge or GPRS so like i just hatted my phone from their so then i was trying to root it but iddnt know how to do that so like i read this website and i got the UPDATE.APP or 2.2.2 AT&T did the same steps of the installation of BG 2.3.4 and it went to the process and 1/2 stepp good it passed and then 2/2 also passed it installed it and when it said Successively Installed it said Restarting and the scrren turn of and it vibrated and thats all that happened and i left it like that for the whole days and nothing happened
Do u got any idea?
When i connect it to my laptop it says installing drivers .then its says sucesfully installed drivers ready to use. so then i got to Device Manger and i check what has been installed and their it said USB Human interface device and HID-compliant device WHAT DOES THAT MEAN??
Not sure about the HID (human interface device) probably just the way windows sees the device for interfacing with it. With regards to the not booting I have read a lot of people saying that you need to factory reset and clear cache after the upgrade/downgrade. With the phone off, turn it on by long pressing volume+ and power on button till you get the blue recovery screen and from there you can reset factory/ data and also clear the cache. from what I see this should clear up the problem and start up. Please read this thread, it may help you somehow..... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1420728
Hope this helps a little
U mean Boot recovery and imma try it and thanks ill check it out

Hello, my u8800 just died..
i got a blue screen a couple of time and had to pull the battery.
now it is completely dead... ? how so?
it was running MIUI just fine and i just rebooted it and got a blue screen..
What happens if you press and hold Vol+,Vol- and Power?
Can you still get into Bootloader?
Bluescreen usually wipes the Bootloader, but you can fix that if you can still access it...
In case you lost all the data in Bootloader (pink screen), format the partition with FAT32, create a folder called "image" and copy the following files on there.
EMMCBOOT - http://www.mediafire.com/?lb6ifvgk72iru4a
AMSS.MBN - http://www.mediafire.com/?d6r45q6p5gew59v
Recovery.img - http://www.mediafire.com/?57njygc8oianjac
Boot.img - http://www.mediafire.com/?6d5i0714a7o9z97
If you can't access the Bootloader (pink screen), I'm afraid it's going back to warranty.
same thing happened to mine, still trying to fix it. managed to flash CWM recovery like that but now factory reseting leads me no where, of course, and restoring a backup from the sd didn't work either, all i get is a bootloop.
i'm so very lost please help, tell me what you need to know to help me
DON'T factory reset or restore a backup! Once you've had a blue screen, you CAN'T restore or factory reset a Rom.
You should flash a custom Rom directly. Just copy the Oxygen.zip (http://sourceforge.net/projects/u8800oxygen/files/) in the root folder of the SD card and then wipe data, cache and dalvik cache.
Flash the new Rom by Selecting "install zip from SD" and select the Oxygen.zip archive, the installation process does everything else.

Thanks GOD!
It was completely dead, but when i wake up this morning i got it on with bluescreen again, hooked it up with my pc and copied the files u linked.
now it seems MIUI is booting fine again!
but how come it got wiped in the first place?
Not sure to be honest...It's some sort of miscommunication between bootloader and Rom (kernel) and Huawei designed a fail-over mechanism that wipes the bootloader (screen becomes blue when this happens).
Anyway, glad to hear that you got it going again.
wow thanks katu2006 xD I just realised how stupid I was
you see this whole thing happened, I think, because I tried formatting a NTFS sd card I put in the phone. I wanted to put files bigger than 4GB in it...
so when I got the blue screen and then managed to boot into CWM recovery, all I had to do was flash a ROM, I knew that, but my internal sd card was wiped clean and I couldn't access it in my PC when I plugged the phone. then I just figured I should get another sd and put MIUI in it and then stick in the phone LOL it's working fine now, thanks a lot
Glad to hear that you problem was resolved as well.
I have the same problem with my U8800. And I follow your direction and I can log in to the Miui rom, but it has the notification "Blank SD card or unsupported file system" and ask me to format the SD card. But when I format the SD card, it change into the blue screen again in the next reboot time. What should I do.

OK, you should copy the SD Card contents to your computer, format it with FAT32, copy the folders back and then try to boot in Recovery and reinstall Miui again.
I also had such a problem. And as in your situation, my solution was to copy those files into 'image' folder. Though, blue-screen-trouble is still actual and we have to blame only huawei-guys
Is your IMEI allright? after some of theese operations, I had mine nulled.

I beg to differ - for me when I had a blue screen yesterday - tried everything other than reflash. In the end I pushed a clockworkmod backup to the internal sd card via adb, did a restore and problem solved.

Blue screen
I was stuck with a blue screen for days after i formated the internal mem, i got stuck until I came across your post . downloaded the files to image folder and here i am with a working phone, thanks a million.
I am so confused .
Im very new to messing around with phones... yes you can call me a super super NOOB
my phone was already rooted and was running a
miui rom (Elite.ROM.v9.7.FIXED.with.Galnet.by.TerraMino_2012-02-18)
(oxygen2.2.2-u8800-test-110914)
i wanted to change it and tried to update CWM coz it was running an older version something like 5.0.---
i installed the file b518 and when i restarted my phone the phone got stuck in a boot loop.....
I can not access CWM
my phone does not come on and is in a boot loop
the only thing i can access now is the pink screen which i can view the image folder
Before this i had made a copy of my whole SD card on the computer...
so if n e files are required i can access it.
I have the zip files that are listed above
PLEASE HELP ME .....[/I][/B]
First, check if you have a normal U8800, not -51 nor Pro.. You can check it by removing the battery.. And, the files you had on sdcard wont help you :/
You can also try to flash another official rom...
EDIT: what happens when you try to enter recovery?
hmm..try it:
go to in pinkscreen, connect phone to pc via usb and replace recovery to custom; boot in recovery (power+vol.up), wipe all (data/factory reset) and try to boot phone.. or install another rom in recovery

i got it to stock and upgraded the CWM to 5.5.0.4 i think the new'st version .
I got that done and then tried upgrading it to aurora 5.0
I copied the file on to the sd card and installed it thru recovery . it said sucessfuly installed but when i rebooted my phone the huawei logo comes up and then a blank screen would remain.
I could access the CWM and i tried to factory reset and wipe out all the data, and after i did and rebooted the phone boots into a blue screen.
when i try to get into the recovery mode by pressing vol up+ power button i still get the blue screen
when i press vol up+ vol down +power butten it goes into a pink screen but i cant access the image folder.
I cant access any of the memory's on the computer.
I tried hooking it up to ubuntu to see if the drives pop up, but still no luck.
as of now im in a fix i dont know what to do coz recovery mode is not opening up and only a blue screen is coming and no reaction on the computer.
PLEASE HELP IM GOING A LIL INSANE>>>>

DON'T USE odin and other flash tools for our phone. It will full brick your phone.
Did you re-flash B518?
If you did,connect Phone while in Blue (or Pink) screen on Ubuntu. Open the disk manager tool (or partition tool,I forget its name),take a screenshot and upload here.

Any help PLEASE! How did you do it?
Hi everyone,
Firstly let me thank anyone reading this in advance! Secondly let me extra thank anyone who helps me in advance!
Sudhodhan. How did you fix your phone?
I rooted my phone. Then I copied a new boot.img file into './cus_backup/image' directory and now the phone wont boot. It just keeps rebooting. I've looked through this forum but cant seem to find an answer. People with similar problems but not exactly the same.
When I go into the pink screen I cannot see the recovery image folder when I pug the USB from phone to computer.
My phone has android 2.3.5.
I cannot access the clockwork recovery mode (by holding power + vol up) it doesn't work anymore or at all?
I have Ubuntu and Xp on my computer.
When I connect phone to computer (while in the pick screen) ubuntu recognises a huwei device attached but adb does not see it. previously adb would see the device.
However when I let the phone keep rebooting endlessly there are moments when adb sees the phone. I have even opened a shell in adb on the device for a little while. but when I did I could not see any hidden directories or the './cust_backup/image' directory. I tried to push the original boot.img file over but that did not work either!
I am stuck.
If I could see the image directory while phone was in the pink screen I could copy original boot.img.
Any suggestions!
Cheers
Hi Koffs,
First check if your phone is U8800 and not a variant like U8800-Pro (+), U8800-51 or U8800-H.
In the case you have a regular U8800 I would suggest you install a stock rom.
For now I recommend B518, find here the link:

My lcd screen cracked last year, so i gave phone to local service and they repaired last week. I am trying to install a new rom for days but i cant manage.
I tried cm version13 and aurora, but my torch doesnot work. EVen in camera, in flash mode. Should i again open phone and look if there is a problem or it is about software?

Now i opening storage, total space 1.40 gb, apps 32 mb, intrnal stroage 1.02 gb and i took of external to see. In file exploerer, again i can only see sd card0. I cant see my system or anything. 1-2 years ago i could see my system.And i connect to pc, there is only one parttion. 1-2 years ago there were 2, one of internal sd other one is phone memory.
Please help me to solve this. And i mneed a rom that is only fast and using battery nicely.

You can mount phone on pink screen and add the latest recovery from there.

Thanks rqmok. You are a great helpful person. You are trying to help me for days.
I went into pink screen. It automatically went update (i had put dload to stockr room update ,). Then i tried to open but still rebooting without oğenning.
So i went into rewcovery but i saw that it is android recovery, not cwm i installed. So i tried a lot of tgihngs.Then i installed aurora v20, but ittis interesting, i opened phone after that insstallation. It shows 2.3.5 rom, stock rom original rom.
I did not understand that.
And my flash again doesnot work. Should i give this back to the repairman to solve?
PLease looık my pictures.
pic 1 shows my first original screen. It was cracked under door and there were a lot of scratchs on phone screen. When i opened phone ,i could see scracths. So i bought from eb ay and gave a repairer. He made it. I dont know if it was well.
Then i put my foot on it slowly, but it again cracked. But i could not see scratchs. When i opened the phone, i could only see light not scratchs. So igave to same repairer without buying a screen. Pic 2 shows my 2. screen that came from ebay, there are no sctracts.
Now , my flash is not working and torch. I tried in a lot of roms. IT is not about software i think. And i have to press a lot of times to enable phone.
What do you say about that?
OK. Please tell me the state of your phone right now. What ROM do you have? What recovery do you have?

I am in loop. I cant open phone so it goes into pink screen, but updating from sd card. Then it again cant be opened . So i go into android recovery and flash aurora or cyangemod it doesnot matter. Sometimes it doesnot see , doesno mount. Then it restarts and 2.3.5 stock rom. But after 1-2 restarts, i cant again open, huawei logo only appears and restarts alot of times. So i again go nito pink screen because if i go into recovery, it cant mount. Fİrstly should update.
Without sd card, i went into pink screen but my computer could not see the files.

You can't view your sdcard files from pink screen.
If you are able to install a ROM and make it work then that will be good. But, you have said that this happened after replacing the screen. So, if you can open the phone and check for any disconnected cables that need to be reconnected then you should fix them. There should be a video on YouTube on how to do this. If you cannot do it then you will have to get it repaired.
I dont have screwdriver, i have 3mm, it doesnot work.
But after screen replacement, i used aurora for 7-8 days. Then i thought partition was wrong and deleted wiped. Now but i cant install a rom. İ nstall aurora but it opens 2.3.5 with pink screen.
What size screwdriver do i need?
Now in android recovery i wiped daya, wip cache and then restarted, then trierd to update on pink scrteen, it gave error. So again wiped datya. Now i could open it. it shows 2.3.5. İf i restart, it will be deleted again i guess. What should i do? Wİthout power off, update? I will try to install cwm
I tried to replace recoveryimg but i failed. Because ihad to install superuser, so it rebooted and phone again cant boot up, restarting a lot of times. I dont understand what the reason is
Again, i did revocery android, wipe data and cache , then rstarted. After a few boots, 2.3.5 opened. Then i again restarted and now it is trying to start again 10. times. I n my ext sd, there are dload and other zips, that can be reason? I dont want to delete those because if i delete, it will be hard for me to insatall those files
Now it is restarted, huaewi logo appears, then pink and colurful fireworkds, than black svcreen and contunes....
After wipping, i restart and it is fine, i could go into 2.3.5. But when i again restart, smetimes it again opens but as soon as desktop opening, it starts to begin,
android stops working
calendar stops working
a lot of windows. I click end activity but it repeats alot of times.
So, my original stcok is damaged or what?
I'm sorry I didn't reply for some time.
So, apps are force closing. Do you have system partition installed? Did you try going back to stock-partition?
Please try going back to stock partition, and if you can get logcat then please upload it here.
Thanks.

Not only apss, android system also huawei etc. I cant even click restart button to restart phone because of popups windows.
So when i click restart, sometimes it open 3. times but still apps closing, then restarting and cant show huawei logo. and botoing up in inifinite loop.
Stock partition, i will try but i wont be able to do it. I donthave cwm and in android recovery i t doesnot accept, cant mount sd card. I can only go into android recover, can only do wipe data cache, cant mount anything. Theen only can restart and sometimes i try to update in pink screen but failed in half of 1/2. So, how can i go to stock partition without restarting phone while open?
I think the 2.3.5 rom i downloaded (Portugal or Korean i dont remember) is can be damaged or wrong. But i think i cant change that too. I am locked.
What i should do, i dont know.
Still cant do. I go into android recovery, wipe data and then after 2-3 restart, it boots. Then if i restart, there are a lot of windows appear showingstop activities. So, i put first 2.3.5 then ginger bread custom app to dload in ext and int sd. Then after wiping in android recovery , i made power off and with + - and power, i made update. This time updates were successfull. It could make updates. But after updates, again could not start. After loading huawei logo, it restarts.
I cant change recovery because i cant install superuser because it should be restarted but if it is restarted, cant start.
I can only use sd card, after wiping data, until one restart .
Please help.
