Help Ascend X Won't Boot After Reset

I tried to reset my phone back to factory default, but now when I turn the phone on I see the Huawei logo followed by hardware information:

HW Model = FB0
HW Version = PR232
SW Version = FB0-2310

etc..

If I hold down the power button and both the up and down volume button, I can get back to the restore options, and can select "wipe data / factory reset" and it says it completes, but still no joy.

I'm assuming the phone just needs to have Android reloaded and my only options are to send the phone back to the manufacturer and be without for a month or try to fix it myself.

Any advice would be appreciated.

This is the strange mode i entered into before i think, does it mention battery low or something at the bottom of the screen under the words above? While in restore mode did you hit any of the hard buttons at the bottom to put the phone in a fastboot mode? Try hitting them again. It will reset into regular mode again.

Hi SergeKarol,

That's exactly it. At the bottom, it says "Battery ADC = 4118"

I think I did press some of the hard keys while it was in recovery mode. I've tried pressing the volume up/down and power buttons while on the screen with the triangle / exclamation point and the android and also after I press the back key to get in to the menu. It still seems to go to the same screen on boot. Unfortunately, I can't remember what I pressed before.

Do know what the key combination is? I'll keep trying to see if I stumble on it.

I think the vol down along with the options key( the one between home and back). But I could be wrong.

However since it is recovery.img related perhaps installing clockworkmod would fix the problem.

Take out the battery, put it back in. Hold the Vol up and down at same time. then turn phone on hold until vibration or a sound occurs. let go of the buttons then. you should boot into stock recovery.
