Guest Simon O Posted November 3, 2012 Report Posted November 3, 2012 Did you brick your Orange San Diego recently? I did so my phone is currently on it's way to the top secret repair facility. Did anyone else end up having to send the phone off for repair? How long did it take? How did you cope without it? Orange gave me a loan phone.. a really really really basic Samsung flip phone lol. Life without Android is hard :( Top tip: Don't flash any updates to your phone unless they come from the Orange or Xolo websites. Even if they are user builds with the correct keys they will bugger your phone up. I found that out yesterday.
Guest Posted November 3, 2012 Report Posted November 3, 2012 What did you flash ? I know how you feel bud, I bricked my g300 and it was hard without android, kind of depressing really :(
Guest rickywyatt Posted November 3, 2012 Report Posted November 3, 2012 lol witch rom did you flash hope you didt flash that test rom I gave you because it has a unsigned recovery boot and fastboot witch means full brick
Guest Simon O Posted November 3, 2012 Report Posted November 3, 2012 Nope I flashed an updated Orange UK ICS ROM I found that has been signed with device keys and was a user build so it should had worked. but it didn't. Something properly upset it. I'm wondering if it's because I flashed a different logo image to get rid of the Orange logo and that messed something up? Shouldn't do but.. meh. Good job I made a full Android backup before I flashed. when I get the phone replaced I'll restore it all :D
Guest rickywyatt Posted November 3, 2012 Report Posted November 3, 2012 you should alway test a rom by flashing only boot or recovery m8 if it don't boot you no it is for intel test phones
Guest Simon O Posted November 3, 2012 Report Posted November 3, 2012 yeah.. I should had done that. Updating the IFWI has probably done it :(

Guest Ribs85 Posted November 7, 2012 Report Posted November 7, 2012 Nope I flashed an updated Orange UK ICS ROM I found that has been signed with device keys and was a user build so it should had worked. wait, what?! How close are you clever people to bringing us custom roms? Where did you get those keys? I've not logged on here for about a week. What else did I miss??
Guest Frankish Posted November 7, 2012 Report Posted November 7, 2012 I think he means he found a properly signed official update that seems to have bricked his device.
Guest Simon O Posted November 8, 2012 Report Posted November 8, 2012 yep that. and I cannot share the place I got them for obvious reasons. No Jelly Bean roms anyway :( Gahh.. hate waiting for the phone to be fixed. Orange said it could take weeks :(
Guest Posted November 21, 2012 Report Posted November 21, 2012 This topic is turning into a hall of fame..............yep I am officially adding my name to the list :(
Guest technomole Posted November 21, 2012 Report Posted November 21, 2012 This topic is turning into a hall of fame..............yep I am officially adding my name to the list :( Is it beyond repair ? I thought mine was until ricky sorted it out, don't know if you can go through this thread - http://www.modaco.com/topic/359286-xolo-software-update-available/ and find something that can help you fix it.
Guest rickywyatt Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 he used the patched xolo update witch kill recovery its also changed fastboot so you can't flash old recovery any more he made the biggest mistake by formating system
Guest technomole Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 he used the patched xolo update witch kill recovery its also changed fastboot so you can't flash old recovery any more he made the biggest mistake by formating system Okay, glad I didn't choose that option then, when I was messing about with it, really must try and learn more about adb and such like.
Guest Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 The worst thing is I have an xolo logo and I cannot full brick it :wacko: tried everything, flashed kboots, fastboots, recoveries, all from other devices mind. Typical, you want to brick and you cant :angry: :(
Guest Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 (edited) :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D I am back, I got fix brick to work after flashing K800 files, or maybe fixbrick worked as I done it while in bootloader whereas before I done it while at logo ? Either way........Amen to fixbrick! Edited November 22, 2012 by Guest
Guest Simon O Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 Phew. Now next time don't format system! Only time you will get 100% brick is by flashing a non-production bootloader. Like I did. :( btw ricky somebody previously flashed with the update and fixed recovery by booting into bootloader and fastbooting the images over and wiping cache. Or did I read it wrong?
Guest Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 It was all for a good cause, I was trying to ota and keep root, it didn't turn out so good ;) :lol:
Guest Simon O Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 oh well. I'll have to investigate if I ever get my phone back.. and be careful!
Guest mickael Posted December 8, 2012 Report Posted December 8, 2012 I just would like to flash deodex rom and my phone is bricked . I would like to unbrick with AIO tools but dosn't see my phone . For debrick i use this : http://www.mediafire.com/?p1yppul2wwh2r34 Do you know why AIO tools don't see my phone ?
Guest Posted December 8, 2012 Report Posted December 8, 2012 (edited) If you are bricked to the point you cannot boot then, go into bootloader mode and start AIO for fix brick, kill adb server with task manager and the tool will start sending update. Edited December 8, 2012 by Guest
Guest mickael Posted December 8, 2012 Report Posted December 8, 2012 I solve my brick with the tools that i post the link . I don't understand why AIO Tools don't work , but probably because i don't kill adb server with task manager . My phone work fine but i don't know why deodexed xolo rom brick my phone , before i flash ICS Xolo and ROOT

My phone work fine but i don't know why deodexed xolo rom brick my phone , before i flash ICS Xolo and ROOT As long as you kill adb in task manager and restart the tool in between each option you should be fine.
