I had a similar problem as most phones in Canada seem to have Download/Recovery mode disabled, and here is what worked for me.
Grab something like One Click Un Root (all models), and click one click un root (obviously phone has to be on and plugged into the computer).
This should automatically reboot you into Recovery Mode!
All you have to do is "wipe data/factory default" or something like that (should be the third option).
As it states, you will loose all your data, but at least you will have a functionning phone!
did it work?
Hi. I have similar problem. Can anybody give instruction what can I do?
I have this problem too. Please help somebody
Add me to the list. Bell Galaxy S, went to unlock my phone the screen went black. Now it will not boot into the OS, the galaxy S splash screen displays then nothing. The menu and back button light up, thats all. ****[email protected]@
I have not rooted or anything.
Of course my download mode does not work.. Going to try this one click root thing if I can find it.
NOT HAPPY
This is not working. Probably because the phone is not in USB debugging mode as I can't change it... Is there any other way to get the phone into recovery mode?
**** me
i had the same thing happen to me the other day with my bell galaxy s and my phone wont do the 3 button combo trick. i left my phone plugged in to a wall charger for a while until the back of the phone became a little warm. i pulled the battery and then left the power cord plugged in and put the battery back in. i held the volume down and enter button until the battery charging indicator showed up, then i also pressed and held the power button until the boot animation started (this is the blue moving swirl and music, not the galaxy s splash scree) and then i let go of the power button. it took a few attempts at this before it actually worked, but eventually it will go into download mode at which time you can open the odin app, then plug in the usb cable and flash your phone that way. it did seem to make a difference if the back of the phone (around the camera area) was warm. if i let go of the power button while the music was playing and the phone did not enter download mode i would keep all 3 buttons pressed until it shut down again, then i would only let go of the power button while the phone initiated the charging screen, then once the battery logo was displayed i would hold the 3 buttons again and would just keep doing this until it went into download mode. i have flashed it at least 5 times today and i have been able to do this each time.
i also had an issue where odin would not recognize my phone was plugged in and windows would show a message saying the usb device was not recognized. i left the phone plugged in and while in download mode i pressed the volume up, enter button and power button until the phone went blank and when the galaxy s logo showed up i let go of the power button and the phone would go into recovery mode and then the usb drivers would be installed. i would then do the 3 button combo for download mode and odin would work fine. it took several attempts but it does work. i hope this helps you guys
If I hold all three buttons the splash screen does not come on, it just keeps looping the Galaxy S logo until I let go of the power button....

That's what mine did too, several times in a row and then it worked. For some reason it only works after the battery is charging for a bit and the back becomes warm. then it works at will
No luck. I am probably screwed getting it exchanged now too as I am passed the 14 days from Best Buy.
the on click thing doesn't work, if your phone is already bricked.
also it is not the phone's fault for not working, the phone was working properly before you tried the hacks.
whenever you do these kind of things you know you are entering into the "not supported" "not covered by warranty" zone.
in the worse case scenario, if you can no enter download mode to recover your phone, it'll be to take the phone back to bell and claim warranty on it, and prentent you don't know what happened to it.

Its my fault??
I did not hack my phone. Its not rooted, I did nothing to it.
By "unlock" I meant exactly that, unlock as in swiping the screen to unlock it.
The more I search the net the more posts I find of Galaxy S phones randomly bricking...
on the original message sounded more like you went to Unlock the phone, as in SIM unlock the phone using any of the tools available out there, and there has been already several people which had the same problem.
if you go back to Bell for an exchange, you better not use the word "unlock" rather use Swipe
as the message on the phone "swipe the screen to unlock"
there are no known issue about this causing the phone to brick.
if that is what happened to you, you should have started a new topic for people to help you, instead of hijacking the topic from the OP, as your issue is different from OP, the OP actually screwed up because he/she flashed the wrong ROM to the i9000
... anyways, Does it work if you reboot the phone?
I have rebooted the phone about 100 times. The phone crashed when I unlocked it to check a text I received. (not hacked). Has not booted up properly since. I have found many others with the same issue who have also not hacked/rooted/unlocked/ their phones.
Waiting on Best Buy to call me back. I am so pissed right now, I have been bragging to my friends and co-workers how awesome this phone is, one has already picked one up, I hope his doesn't brick too. Not recommending it to anyone anymore..
did you load a lot of MP3 to the phone?
can you boot into Recovery Mode?
in the recovery mode you can wipe the Cache and wipe the data
that should make your phone work normal again
it'll be best to open a topic to help you trouble shoot your interesting issue, as it's the first i've hear that you get a black screen after Swiping out of the lock screen
I can't get into recovery mode. I have tried every button combination I have found. I had about 2 GB of music on the phone. I also installed the Android SDK to try ADB, but since the phone is not in USB debugging mode it does not see it.

on the other topics relating to the 3 button not working.
have you tried the heating up method?
or the plugging the battery in, when all 3 buttons are pressed? (of course for this one you will need help from a friend, unless you are very skilled at keeping the 3 button on hold meanwhile able to slide in the battery in with out a 3rd hand)
Guys,
so i've done some searching to no avail so i'm desperately asking for some help so i can fix my pregnant's wife cell phone (she really needs it)
I rooted her LG G2 (ATT) some time back. I never installed any recovery or custom ROM. She received an update software notification and I told her not to accept. Well coincidently later on in the day her phone stopped working (she states she did press software update button).
He phone is bricked and boots only to the LG G2 logo and she gets a boot certification error and phone turns off (but i think screen still off).
Attempting to do a hard reset did not work, i got the same LG screen with same error
I decided to flash back to stock, i understand the process and have done this before on my LG G3.
Only problem is when i try to go into download mode and plug USB into phone I get pop up messages on my laptop asking me to format local disk h: I notice that every time I attempt to go into download mode and plug the phone in, i get a bunch of local drives that pop up. I tried formatting out of desperation, but it told me disk was protected.
No idea wha'ts going on. Anyone know why i get a bunch of local drive disks instead of my phone going into download mode when i plug into my laptop?
I greatly appreciate the help, i've been at this for 3 hrs and i'm frustrated.
I think my problem may be that the phone is not truly "OFF" and i don't know how to turn this completely off since there's no battery to pull. I'm not even sure if this is the problem, but just an idea.
I tried letting the phone die completely. I thought i'd be able to let it die, charge it a bit, then hold volume up and plug it into computer to get into download mode. I thought i was a genius, until the phone died and as soon as i plugged it into charge it automatically went into bootloop again.
I think the problem is that i can't turn off the phone to get into download mode.
Any ideas?
bumping in this in hopes of some help. Still can't get this thing to go into download mode.

When I get a boot certification error my phone is always in a state when I can never truly turn it off.
When I hold the POWER button it turns OFF, then immediately turns ON again when I release the POWER button.
My solution? Hold the POWER button down for about 30 seconds.
My screen turns off at around the 10 second mark and after a while I let go of the POWER button and my phone stays OFF.
It's probably best to do this in a dark room so you can tell if the screen is really OFF.
If you're having trouble truly turning your device OFF, try THIS tutorial. It involves removing the rear case of your G2 and disconnecting your Battery.
Okay now.. assuming you got your phone to turn OFF.. continue reading..
Make sure you have the LG Drivers installed on your PC. You can download them HERE.
After installing those Drivers, download and install the Universal ADB Drivers from HERE.
Now after doing the above, try Download Mode again. Hold Volume UP and plug your phone into your PC via USB (keep holding Volume UP until you see "Download Mode").
Success? If so.. visit THIS tutorial and do the "TOT Method".
No Success? Post back and let me know :good:. You may need to follow THIS tutorial as a final solution.

I am still going to try this method so i can restore and sell on ebay. Hope it works!

You're more than likely going to have to do the last option I linked you to, which requires a unix-like environment. If you need any help with that just send me a PM or post in that thread specifically.
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.
Find how to update bootloader.

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!
I found SP flash tool and i believe it would do the trick. But i need to get the scatter loading file of the moto pure, but i can't find it anywhere, maybe anyone got the idea how to get that?

We haven't been able to get the QLoad files for most Moto devices, at least not for the last 2-3 years... Sorry.
Well i have found a way to get the device charged while the screen is off!
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.
sorry for your luck.

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.
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.
My screen broke 6 months ago, so it wasn't used/charged for 6 months. Now I've replaced the screen, but it won't start up anymore. First thing I saw was the warning "low battery", so I charged it for a while. Still, nothing. Charged it for several days, nothing. Checked the battery voltage, 3.80 volts, exactly what it should be I think?
The phone does do something though. When I hold the "on" button, after 5 seconds it buzzes and the screen shows the oneplus logo and android. Just for two seconds, then nothing. Same thing with "on" and volume down, the start-up screen for 2 seconds...
When I use "on" and volume up, I get the screen saying "fastboot mode". And that doesn't go away untill I press "on" for a while.
I can connect it to my laptop, but cant see it. But when I take the battery out while connected to the laptop, the phone will show the "low battery" warning. Connect the battery again, and the logo and android message come on for two seconds...nothing more.
So the screen works, the battery is charged, but no way to turn it on. Tried holding the "on" button for 15 seconds, same result. Just a 2 seconds oneplus logo visible...
I have no clue what this could be, I hope its not completely fubar...
Thanks in advance, Fred Doe
Hey Fred Doe,
I wouldn't like to hijack your post, but I seem to have run into the exact same issue here.
A friend of mine got his screen replaced, and the phone acts exactly the same as yours.
I have disassembled the phone and checked all connections, but everything seems to be correct on the inside.
The phone does seem to boot, and it does boot into recovery mode (it responds to the button presses by vibrating) but the screen just doesn't show anything.
Only when doing fastboot the screen stays on.
Hopefully someone here can point us in the right direction.
there's not much to hijack here...sure sounds like the same problem. At this moment I gave up, guess its a lost cause..
Guys, the exactly same thing here. I've tried to unbrick it but failed.... So far what I know is that bootloader is locked.
I would like to know what steps should us do in order unlock bootloader, get screen functioning while getting access back to bootloder (TWRP) so after that we can install a new ROM!
Any clue from the community of OnePlus 2? This phone is still a good phone! Thnx
Have you guys tried running the msm tool. It'll restore everything to stock if you can it to work. If either of you have magisk installed it can cause issues with charging while the phone is off I believe.
I mean honestly sounds more like hardware issue that a msm wouldn't fix, but it's weird that your screen works in fastboot.
If you do the msm tool though be aware it will wipe everything on your device, and relock the bootloader if it is unlocked.
Like I said doubt it will help, but just a thought.
Edit: Also make sure you use the correct one for your device.
Edit sorry guys wrong forum ignore everything I said. Apparently xda labs thought my OP6T was a OP2.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But the screen does show up & stays on in fastboot?
I'm no expert but any stretch. I just jumped ship from lg my 6t is the 1st OP phone I've owned. But if the screen does work normally in fastboot then it wouldn't be illogical to entertain the idea that it was a software issue. So I mean this is a bit of a chin scratcher.

Thanks for replying.
IWhen I press Power + Vol. Up it shoes Fast Boot screen. Then I connect cable and sometimes I can use command line but can't unlock bootloader with command line. All methods found indicate to use Recovery but since my screen doesn't work on Recovery I'm stuck.
When I press Power + Vol. Down (for entering Recovery) screen it goes all black but the capacitive buttons and Volume button give back a vibration response, as if it have entered Recovery Mode but since I can't see nothing on screen I can do anything either.
My bootloader is locked because I see that info via command line.
Thanks anyway
PS: I think something is corrupted. My OP2 was unlocked much time ago. I frquently change ROM's and have also updated TWRP. The only thing I did was disassembling the phone in order to change a shattered screen glass.
I've also tried different methods and installed in my pc different Qualcomm drivers, ADB, etc.
I'm getting close to the point of testing with broken touch, buying a new touch screen but with frame or giving up completely and buy a new phone :|
The last option get me in doubt because I would like a phone wich is good and fast and decent battery but not with a premium price... and popular so I can unlock it without hassle in order to install root apk's.
