Guest Posted April 19, 2014 Report Share Posted April 19, 2014 Hello all :D I've been a lurker at Modaco for a while. Thank you for the awesome support. Now, I'm in a fix. I'll try to keep it short. I dropped my ZTE Crescent in water. I took it out as fast as I could. I removed the battery, the SIM Card and the memory card. I kept it to dry for almost a week. Then I kept it in dry rice for another week. I made it as dry as I could. Now it has been almost four months. Some observations and info: Phone keeps restarting at the Android logo when plugged in to my laptop, but it has reached the Android UI a few times when connected directly to the wall socket using a Samsung charger. I unlocked the screen, and after a few seconds, the phone turned OFF. When connected to AC, it always shows 100% charged. Once I remove the charger the phone turns OFF. I had a partitioned SD card. I had CM7 installed. The phone is unlocked and rooted. I do not have the SD card now. I was able to boot into Recovery, I wiped everything I could (Dalvik, data, system), fixed permissions etc. After wiping everything I have not been able to enter CM7, not even the logo. I can still get into CWM. The version is 6.0.0.8 I have a few queries as well. Do you think its the battery? Where can I get a new one? Is CM7 still installed in the phone or did wiping remove everything? Is that the reason that phone is stuck at the Android logo w/o showing CM7 after wiping? I love this phone. I would really love to have it back. On a budget, can't afford a new one now. I use Ubuntu 14.04 LTS as my OS. What all do I need to install on it to be able to debug my phone, play around with it? If it is a hardware problem is there anything I can do about it? I'm not a super newbie. I know my way around. But, I'm no expert. Please bare with me. My exams start on Monday, it will last a week. Please bare with me, I will try to respond as soon as I can. HELP! :( Please ask me for any more information you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Typhus_ Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Hmmm..."dropped my ZTE Crescent in water"... Sorry, I don't think there's a salvation near by. :unsure: Anyway, the operations you've performed on the recovery didn't remove the ROM. They simply remove all user data, cache, sd-ext data and dalvik-cache. Have you tried the "Save your dead vivacity" thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 No. I haven't. I will post back after I do it. Exams going on. I'm still in high hopes because I was able to boot into CM7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
