Guest k0zmic Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 I just upgraded my Blade to Gen 2. It all went well and I flashed CM7 for Gen 2 Blades with the patch. But it wasn't too smooth and was a bit slow so I went into recovery and wiped it and reflashed then my phone got stuck ont he green Android logo. Did that a few times and gave up. So I went into recovery and upgraded to the latest clockworkmod, rebooted but I got a distorted screen. I'm trying to restore an old version of recovery via fastboot but my device won't detect on Windows. Any ideas/suggestions? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jamidodger1 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 You've bricked it. I think. If you update clockwork it'll brick it and you can't use fastboot flash thing with GEN 2. :/ No Idea's Sorry :/ Jamie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest k0zmic Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 have you tried using adb and holding down + or - vol? forgotten which ones which :$ I've got it into Fastboot via Power and Volume Up but Windows doesn't see the device. I'm going to check the drivers, I don't think it's bricked. It's on life support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jamidodger1 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Ok, have you got the ZTE drivers? I can attach them if you want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest k0zmic Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Ok, have you got the ZTE drivers? I can attach them if you want? I've got them thanks. Windows keeps saying my device is up to date already when I try install them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jamidodger1 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 I've got them thanks. Windows keeps saying my device is up to date already when I try install them. Can you see your device in the device manager? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest k0zmic Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Can you see your device in the device manager? As 'Not recognized' so I try update them and browse to the driver directory but still no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jamidodger1 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 As 'Not recognized' so I try update them and browse to the driver directory but still no. Can you print screen your device manager? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest k0zmic Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 (edited) Can you print screen your device manager? Yep, Attached. I might try to find all the ZTE drivers and just uninstall them then try reinstall. Edited April 15, 2011 by k0zmic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jamidodger1 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Yep, Attached. Have you tried right clicking on the "unknown device" then update device software then browse my computer for software then let me pick from a list then click have disk then pointing to the directory of the drivers? then installing it through that?

Guest ken218 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 What I did last time was to re-run the Gen1 to Gen2 upgrade - to get clockwork back (but that is if you can get into the FTM mode) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have done, that's how I result in the error. I tried installing the .INF files by 'Picking from a list of available drivers' and then browsing to the extracted ones.

EDIT: Had some luck, booted into the dead recovery mode and driver notification appeared. Installed via Browse and Diagnostic Interface thing appears in Device Manager. So I went into TFT Flasher on Windows and I can press the start button. I haven't done so yet but is this what you did Ken? Sure it works?
