I was trying to downgrade and the phone seemed like it was stuck after hboot to PB31IMG so I pulled the battery now when I try to boot the phone, it vibrates but gets stuck on a black screen. Please help
hold vol down n power at sametime
see if u can get to recovery from hboot, if not I think u mightve screwed yourself

I think the phone is booting up, the buttons at the bottom will light up and the charging light will come on but the screen stays blank.
If you can get into HBoot...try to do a RUU with these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=817487
Also...how long did you wait before pulling the battery? And what exact step were you on when you did it?
I waited about five minutes and I cant do ruu because I cant see anything. The screen is black. Thats the step I was on. It said updating do not turn off. After it was done. I let it sit and it didn't do anything so I did a battery pull, I have the phone charging now and the charging light is on.
you probably should have waited at least 30 min...most of this stuff needs time usually if it seems like it's hanging its probably not. did you try getting to hboot yet?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I didnt know to wait that long. Also, I tried but I cant get to anything, the phones charging light is on and when I hit the power button, the charging light goes away but the screen stays black. The lights at the button are on also, so it looks like the phone is on but the screen is black.
pull the battery again, then hold vol down and pwr til u get to hboot then let us kno wat happens

Am I missing something? I thought I couldnt get into hboot because I cant see whats going on. The lights at the bottom are lit up and the charging light is on but the screen is black. If the screen is black, I wont know if Im in hboot right?
call Verizon and told them your phone had a black screen. they will send u a replacement phone.
ive never been able to not get into hboot with anything dumb I've done to my phone

I just got this today from best buy. The bottom lights are coming on and so is the charging light, just not the screen. Is this something I definitely did or could I just have a lemon and the screen be bad.

I got it from best buy today, I noticed on the hboot screen it did say s off but this happened when I was trying to unroot. If I can fix it great, if not, i dont want to take it back and get charged for it.
it sounds like youre ignoring the help I'm giving you and youre just tring to turn it on everytime, phone needs to b completely off for hboot yo. yes you did something wrong to it. we just need to kno if u can get there to kno if u f'ed urself or not and fix it for you

Here is the fix for the Desire: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=748498
In theory this fix should work the same for the Incredible, you just need to find the correct Rom.
The problem is that you tried to revert to the stock 2.1 for AMOLED screen phones, and you have a SLCD screen.
Now you basically have to find the SLCD version (not sure if there is one for 2.1?) and blindly get into HBOOT/Recovery and hopefully press the correct buttons to install the SLCD Rom for your phone.
I think this is the rom you want to try flashing (it's the stock 2.2 RUU): http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IH461NS4
Good luck...
nevermind then, try lookin for clockworkmod on crack post in development heard it has the drivers for slcd, you have to rename it pb31img.zip on root of sdcard so you can see recovery

Im trying to listen to what your saying, idk if im doing something wrong. These are the steps im using.
1. I pull the battery.
2. put the battery back in while holding volume down with the power button.
3. it turns back on, i hit up a couple times on the volume
4. the phone turns on, the bottom lights and the charging lights are on.
I can hear the volume go up and down, when i hit menu, home, back, or search the phone vibrates. When I use the volume up and down buttons I can hear the volume going up and down so the phone is on.
I appreciate your help and want this fixed, i may be doing something wrong and sorry if I dont understand but Im not trying to deliberately ignore your advice.

I have an app that is crashing at the start-up of my phone and the error loops and will not let me get to the home screen to uninstall it. I have searched this site and google for how to start the phone in Safe mode so I can uninstall and can't find it anywhere! Can someone re-post or tell me where to find the info?
Thank you so much!
i dont think there is a safe mode, but you can always factory data reset from recovery.
If i recall thats holding power + vol down when your phone is turned completely off.

I been reading online and it looks like most androids have safe mode and you get to it by.
*Powering Off the phone
*Powering on the phone
*Pushing and holding the menu button when you see the Logo. i.e g1, g2 my touch, nexus etc...
I would try but i dont have my phone with me right now my girl has its. But it wouldnt hurt if you tryed it

Hum y r u laughting? He isnt talking about recovery he is talking about safe mode. Do ur home work before you post. Safe mode disable auto start apps so you can uninstall apps if ur in a fc loop. Back in the g1 openhome days it came in handy.

I'll take a stab and guess that he's laughing at the fact that the OP said "safe mode", which is commonly found on Windows OS, but since the Android is running on top of a Linux kernel, that may have tickled his funny bone.

I didnt own my MT3G long enough to find out that there was such a thing called SAFE mode... To be honest I tried to stay from XDA, because it's so easy to get pulled into the rom flashing business.
And yet... here I am
I meant no harm... its just that I was sitting here at work and I couldnt stop laughing.... but now that I know such a thing exists, I stand corrected.
This is a problem
This is a big problem. I need to be able to debug an application bug that causes the phone not to start up, and going through the factory reset is just too harsh. This is especially a problem for end-users that experience such problems, and they end up losing data due to having to factory reset. Safe mode should be mandatory on all android phones, IMHO. If anyone is reading this over at Google or phone manufacturer's end PLEASE include Safe Mode in every android phone model.

If you are rooted, you can boot into recovery and use adb to remove the offending app.
Press down the keyboard "S" key (yeah S for Safe mode) at HTC logo during boot.

Whoa, nice find, if you found it! I just held the S button down the entire time through bootup (idk if you had to but I did) and I'm in safe mode. To bad op didn't find this out earlier
If only I had found this post 10 days earlyer,now my phone is in the shop and who know when I'll get it back...
If this for real? Hold down s?
sure is, but it wont do much accept it wont allow /data apps from loading - truthfully this isnt be the most helpful way of fixing anything thats why it isnt really talked about.
i could see if you had a malicious app wreaking havoc you could find this useful, if you dont want to wipe all. but lets say you overclocked your phone too much and it wont boot,
it would be easier to just flash a kernel on top of the rom without a wipe.
granted i dont think safe mode would even reset clock speeds.... time to test... eh, too much work
Wow makes me wonder what all the other buttons will do... Press W for warp speed

I've seen a lot of these threads on random android forums, never with much resolution, which is frustrating.
My power button has stopped working entirely. I took it into the Sprint shop, they spent an hour with it, came back out and said they could find no reason it shouldn't be working. It's an obnoxious fix, but I downloaded "No Lock" from the marketplace and set the screen to shut off after 15 seconds. Now I press a volume key to turn on my screen...
Now, when it gets annoying is when I went to install Cyanogenmod 7 tonight. The power button obviously doesn't work. Widgetsoid's reboot button is ignored entirely if I do Shut Down, Reboot, Bootloader, or Recovery. It's A-OK with Hot Reboot. So the only way I've gotten into the bootloader to wipe/install CM7 is to pop out the battery, hold VolDown, and put the battery in. Peachy. But once I'm into the bootloader, now not only does power (which is now my "enter" button) now work, but the volume buttons are unresponsive as well. So no scrolling.
I'd love to call up HTC or Spring and see what I can do about a replacement (which might not even happen, I don't have a warranty), but I can't un-root the device to send it in.
Any insight you guys have would be greatly appreciated...
Is there an SDK or something that would allow me to remote control the phone using my computer via USB? I'm completely at a loss here.

I believe you are referring to adb?
and you can unroot via adb, just search around, I'm sure you'll find something on it.
btw, does Sprint know you rooted your phone? if they didn't find out, then you still have a warranty

Yeah, I'm just not as familiar with ADB as I'd like to be.
Not so much looking to unroot, as reload HTC Sense so they don't think to look haha. And yeah, when I brought the phone in today it was very obviously modded. They restarted it and the Cyanogenmod 6 flash screen came up. The guy looked a little confused. He was more than willing to help out, but I'm not so sure it would be the same if I sent it in. They definitely wouldn't replace it.
Alright, so I have ADB up and running with no issue. Got it to give me my device's serial #. At this point, how do I hijack the phone's bootloader and force it to wipe and install the ZIP of CM7 that's on the SD card?
Hi guys, first off grate site. I think I brick my Evo, there’s no power even with the power adapter.
This is what I did
1. rooted my phone (ok)
2. made backups (ok)
3. install mikfoyo 4.4 – everything works grate
4. updated to mikfoyo 4.5 – everything ok but 4g was acting funny
5. update radios but still nothing
6. then decide to update with Savaged-Zen-V0.0.5-CFS-HAVS-SBC-WiMAX-GB-signed.zip ( yea i know stupid )
7. reboot then got android with arrow
8. turn off phone tried to reboot into recovery with power button pressed with vol up, got three pulse, phone shut off and that was it. Never came on after that.
Thanks for your time and help
try the volume down button, not volume up.
Did you reboot your phone after flashing the radio or did you flash something else first?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
i did the same thing with volume up to see what it would do. i just took battery out and put it back in. held the volume down and hit power. i was good to go again. but im having issues flashing themes now lol
wipe man. wipe all partitions (system, boot, cache, dalvik, data) w/ newest amon_ra recovery. then flash rom, reboot, and dont flash aosp kernels on sense roms ever again.
Thanks guys for the quick response but i tried all the above but there's no power on the phone, not even when pluged into charger. xHausx I did do the reboot after updating the radio.

So you have no power at all, even when plugged into the wall, with the phone turned off? No charging led? Are you sure you battery isn't totally dead. I've seen more than once where the battery dies, to the point where it won't take a charge. Or you could be stuck in diagnostic mode. Try letting the phone sit, with the battery out, for about an hour. Put the battery back in, then plug the phone in, and let it sit for a while, and see if the led light comes back on. If so, try power and voldown to see if you can get to the bootloader.
I tried that also but nothing it's dead

sounds like you should be taking it to a sprint store for a replacement if you get absolutely nothing with it plugged in.
If the phone is off and you plug in a power source, the charging LED will come on. If yours doesn't do that, the phone at a HW level is borked.

Yup. If you're positive your battery is good, then you gotta go to Sprint. I would clear anything from your SD card that relates to rooting, flashing, roms, etc. I've heard of Sprint techs checking the card for evidence of rooting.

Yes of course I've tried leaving it plugged in for several hours and the night before the phone was at 100% charge so I doubt battery is the issue.

Ummm seems like u can fix it.... go bak to stock using odin as well and go back to stock and i believe cwm is going to be gone so as your root access so re-do it but this time guide yourself through a turorial(a.k.a google) and since you have to clue i think the best choice for you is to find a video tutorial in case your doubting or getting confused with the steps or sometimes to see what you did wrong that caused the phone to misbehave...

This is why I hate one-click-root kits, you get people doing things to their phones they don't understand, wreck it and come here saying "help, I don't know what do do!" Something like this you really should at least understand the basics. I hope this gets you more involved in researching what's actually happening. It's important to know what's happening to your device as well as why, that way if something goes badly you'll have an idea of how to get out of it.
Sorry, enough lecturing, let's see if we can get something going here. Give a bit more detail about what happens. You're phone is shut down, right? You hit the power button and no response, like the battery is actually out of the phone, or does it turn on and give you a blank screen? If it was a brick, I'd think you'd at least see the boot screen before everything goes wrong.
Ok, I'm going to go ahead and assume you've removed the battery. If you haven't, do so now.
If it still won't turn on, try actually holding the power button down for 30-60 seconds. I had a scary moment with my phone yesterday, rebooted it running Wicked v5 on Trinity and the screen just died. I've been running that rom for a week with just a couple of issues here and there, nothing out of the ordinary. Pulled the battery and tried again, nothing. After holding the power button down for a bit I felt a quick vibrate, then the boot logo came up. No idea why, I'm going to have to look into it.
Beyond that, I'm brand new to this phone and Sammy's Android devices so I'm still learning myself. HTC phones I could help out more with, but I'm still a bit clueless with this thing.

Yes I have taken out the battery replaced it several times. I hit the volume home and power button several times. When I do that I get a zero response nothing shows up I hear no sound its as if the phone is just completely dead. One thing I did realise is when I plug it into the computer and press the power button what would happen is it would connect and automatically disconnect
Can you get into Download mode? Volume down + Home + Power button?
Sent from my SGH-T999
Don't forget to let go of the power button when going into recovery.
Have you done what the other post said?
Hold power for about 10-30 seconds. Does it do anything? Do you feel a verrrry slight vibration?
When you plug it in without doing anything else does the computer see it in device manager? How about if you press power once? Or holding power down?
Does it register that its charging?
This may sound dumb but did you try powering up without the phone plugged into anything?

Ummm. Sorry but maybe im missing something? Your first sentence in your op says you didnt have a clue what you were doing....
And where is it supposed to infer that you've done everything already?
Imo you have been getting 'real' advice but from what I see you haven't 'really' answered anyones suggestions.
No one can help you if you dont tell us what exactly you have tried and what what happened when you did.
For example in your only response you mentioned hitting the volume and home keys a bunch of times....what exactly do you mean by this? Did you hold them while trying to power up? Volume up or down? Did you release any of them during that process, and if so which and when?
Its kinda hard to help someone who doesn't have a clue what they are doing and only responds that hes done everything common sense dictates.
I seriously mean no offence but to me common sense would dictate that you not try rooting or anything if you know you dont know what you're doing.
It would also dictate that if you want further help with this you should go back and respond to what everyone suggested.
Like I said, im not trying to offend, just help.

I am having the same issue
I just tried flashing Android Revolution to my phone. I went through the whole set up process. Went to reboot then it went blank. Nothing. I get nothing when I plug it in. The computer doesn't recognize any device attached to it. I've tried all the ideas listed here and I get nothing. It's as if the phone is completely dead. When I flashed the rom my battery was at 90%. I've used various roms on different phones and this was the first time I did it to my Galaxy s3 and this is the first time it's ever happened. Talk about frustrating.

To get our phone back. I had the same problem after a bad flash. My phone wouldn't do anything. After I left it plugs in for an hour I was able to get into download mode ..hope you get urs back. If its what happened to me then u might find that you have no 4g anymore... If that's the case let me know and I'll tell u what I did to get it back.
