Cant get past boot screen

**corey246** · 11-13-2011, 06:26 PM

So my phone keeps starting up to a HBOOT screen. It wont let me use the volume buttons or power button once on this screen. So I cant select any of the options. I have no clue what to do, any help?

This started right after a battery pull. I put the battery back in and got this problem.

Sounds like the volume rocker is stuck. If it is, I haven't seen a fix for this. Your best bet would be to exchange it. I think it is a poor design to have the battery cover right over the volume rocker.

I thought the same thing but I took the volume rocker out and pressed the button without it, didnt help.

Sounds like u have a PDIMG.zip on the root of ur sd. U need to use ur cpu or a file explorer app to delete that file or it won't boot past hboot screen. Turn the phone off, take the sd card out & boot into hboot. U should then be able to use ur rocker to boot into recovery, then after it accepts it, but right before the recovery menu loads, pop the sd back in then you'll be back in recovery & do ur recovery or boot into your rom or whatever your doing & get that file off the root of your sd! :') Or you could always use a card reader to delete that file as well. Hope this helped

doesn't triangle with exclamation point usually just mean recovery image is missing? Couldn't you just push one with adb? Not convinced it's bricked

Actually now that I reread what I posted, sound kinda rude. Didn't intend for it to come out that way. Sorry about that
