Hey guys, so I got two Vibrants, mine and my girlfriends. I updated hers via Kies to KA6 today, everything went fine.
I went on to update mine... but now it's stuck into a black screen with
phone <!> PC
in the middle.
I tried volume up + down + power to get into download mode, but it's not working. Any ideas? Can I even fix it?
Please, any help would be appreciated!
EDIT: So yeah... ODIN was able to flash it without being in download mode, somehow. The brick screen just went away and I'm running KA6. thank you!
Volume up + down - power should do it
Meaning dont push power at all

Yep.
1) Remove battery from phone
2) plug USB into Computer
3) plug USB into Phone
4) Hold down volume rocker (both + and -) DO NOT HOLD DOWN POWER BUTTON
5) While holding down Volume rocker plug USB into phone
If your phone is not hardkey locked you should now be in download
It just won't go into download mode. Trying for over and hour, the 3 keys method. It just goes back to same screen.
ODIN does recognize it as ID:0/006 and COM6 but can't flash it.
unplug usb, take out the battery, press and HOLD the 2 volume buttons, put battery back in, then plug in the usb again. You should get into download mode after that and ull probably need to odin back to stock.
What about phone off battery in hold vol up and down then put the usb in also try another usb port and make sure the drivers are working properly

The phone just won't react to this method. Doesn't turn on.
Should I insert the battery after pluggin the USB?

Yeah.........
So I tried:
1. Vol. Up + Down + Power
2. Battery off, Vol. Up + Down, plug in USB
3. Battery on, Vol. Up + Down, plug in USB
4. Battery off, vol. up + Down, Battery on, plug in USB
Everything just keeps taking me back to the same screen. I'm officially screwed, right?

you can try the jig method.
I've always been able to get in by:
-removing the battery. (wait a few seconds)
-put battery back in but DO NOT power it on.
-hold the volume keys
-plug in the cable.
this gets me to download mode 100% of the time.
Hope this helps.
sure fire way into DL mode

Plug in different USB
Try to change usb ports on the computer.
After changing make sure phone is off and hold down volume buttons then plug in usb.. Make sure phone is completely off before doing so.
Tried all my USB ports now, in some of them, the PC recognizes it as an "USB Composite Device" and a "Samsung Modem", but I still get the same screen. No download mode at all. I think I just lost US$ 600.
Give it one last try.
Hey there, give it one last try, follow the instructions exactly.
1) Restart your computer.
2) Take your Sim card, microsd, and battery out of your phone, and leave all 3 out
3) Once computer restarts, open odin.
4) Attach one end of your usb cable ONLY to your computetr, NOT your phone yet.
5) Take your vibrant, with your sim card, microsd and battery still out.
6) take the vibrant, and hold down both volume up and volume down at the same time. DO NOT TOUCH POWER. (MAKE SURE YOU are holding down the edges of the volume rocker, if you try pressing both by holding the middle of the rocker down, it wont work).
7) Now, while still holding down vol up and vol down, don't ever let go, and take the other end of your usb cable and plug it into the phone. Still don't let go of both vol buttons, and do not touch power. Keep on holding.
8) Next, get your battery only, and while still holding down the vol up/vol down, take your battery and slide it in. (sim card and micro sd are still left out)
If all goes ok then you should get into download, if not then sounds like your bootloader got messed up and I don't think the USB jig will help either.
You guys will probably think I'm crazy... but ODIN flashed KA6 just fine without being in download mode. it was on the brick screen and it just... worked.
I'm speechless. Thank you for all your help!
keep usb plugged in.
onwhen you get that screen,
hold down vol up, vol down, and power,
screen will flash black, keep holding,
you'll see the screen again,
keep holding
when screen flashes black the 2nd time, let go of power.
i have a d802 and it's not turning on anymore even if i charge it midnight! black screen, no recovery/download mode. led light flashes red only if i press power button. i really need to retrieve the files on my g2 :crying:
Hold Vol + and plug in USB Cable(connect to AC power,no to pc).If appear S/w Download,wait to charge.
still no luck.

Hi guys,
I've got some problems when trying to boot my OP2.
First of all, my phone won't power on when holding the power button. There is no reaction from my phone. When connecting to a USB port of my computer, the phone will power on showing the battery charging indicator. I tried several things:
- Power cycle: holding the power button for 20 seconds 5 times
- Holding the power button when connecting my phone to my computer: the OnePlus and Powered by Android logo, after a few seconds, battery charging indicator comes up
- Holding the volume down button when connecting to my computer: the phone is stuck at the OnePlus logo and Powered by Android logo. I have to disconnect the battery to turn off the phone. (Yes, I opened my OP2)
- Holding the volume up button for 20 seconds when connecting to my computer: no reaction, phone stays off.
Yesterday when holding some buttons, I ended up on the fastboot screen, but I don't know the combination of keys and duration to end up in this screen. When in fastboot mode, is it possible to reset this phone, because I can't open recovery mode (volume down button)? And how to I enable fastboot mode?
Might this issue be caused by a broken battery or another hardware issue?
Thanks in advance XDA-hero's!
hi all,
so my power Button is busted, and i think my volume down button too, or i didnt turn on debugging, dosent matter, i cant turn it on using the hold volume down plugin charger meth, it just charges.
is there any way to power it on, were under lockdown, is there a way to force to boot through USB maybe?
So I have a rooted oneplus 6t that was doing quite well for a little while now but for some reason today it died when it was hooked up to a charger. When I unplugged it and plugged it back in it did its usual vibration to signify it was connected but then it showed a qualcomm crash error (died too quickly to see it fully but it was small so I at least saw some of what it said) now when I try to let it charge it doesnt vibrate and doesnt even turn on when I left it on charge for a good hour now and when i hold vol up +power,vol down + power,both vol +power,or just power for their respective seconds to get the phone to respond. Tried looking for a answer online but none are similar to what i am having atm. Also my computer wont even see it either while it's like this. I've tried other cords as well to see if it was a cord issue and wasnt it's been sitting on the charger since 10:55 am est. Help?
It usually just takes some persistence. Usually the power + volume up will force it off, and then power it back on does the trick, sometimes it seems like it's all three buttons (which shouldn't do anything?) . I've had a couple times I've been just about to give up when it finally boots back up to fastboot.
Volume Up + Power while turning on will boot to fastboot.
Volume Down + Power while turn on will boot to recovery.
Holding Volume Up + Power should force the phone to turn off.
Volume Up + Volume Down should put your phone in Download mode for the MSM Tool.
Make sure you hold the buttons much long than you think you should have too.
