EVO 4g, fully rooted, I sold it and tried to do a factory reset to erase all my data.
now when it powers up it says "android" then comes up a carbon fiber looking blank screen.
That's it.
To make matters worse, I recently changed the glass screen and they messed up my volume buttons so I can't get into the factory boot.
Can someone please help ?

 

I had Dr. Phone Fix do it for $60.00, and had to take it back to them SIX times just to get the phone to work halfway decent.
Then I messed up and bricked it...
I rooted the phone myself, Mikestony helped me out BIG time with it ( I was werking on it for almost a week).
The custome recovery I think is the one with the Road Runner on it.
I have the file on my laptop MIKROM ??

 

I'm almost afraid to take it back to Dr. Phone Fix for fear they will screw it up worse.
$60.00 is a lot of money though.
Is there any other way to do it ?

 

PS what is ADB ?

 

.

 

I have no Idea what either one of those things are.

But since my phone is basically useless as is, I may as well give it a shot and see if Dr. Phone Fix will fix the buttons.

 

Thanks for your input, I'm gonna call Dr. Phone Fix on Monday and see what they say.
If not, I'll probably spend the money to have "U break I fix" fix it, they fixed my glass before, but they charged $100.00 and they are a lot farther away.

But you sound like I may be able to bring it back if my volume buttons were working so I think I'm gonna go for it...

Thanks again for all your help, in the write up you directed me to it mentions something about SDK backup.
I found EVO ROOT, EVO BACKUP, EVO ZIP, and REFLASH PACKAGE on my laptop.
I'm hoping if I can get the volume buttons werking I can use these files to bring my phone back ??

Thanks again

 

It was my daily phone, but I switched to Verizon, and got two Samsung Galaxy III mini's and an S-4 for my son for $250.00, and signing a 2 year contract, (witch I'm really worried about..).

I sold the EVO 4G on Amazon, but can't send a phone I advertised as rooted if it's bricked.

 

I wanna thank you guys for all your help and input, I'm getting better at this, as you can see I figured out how to reply using "Quotes"..
Should make this easier....

Thanks again..
Tony

 

Just so you know, I tried to hook the phone up to the laptop, and copy and paste the EVO Root / EVO backup files to the phone in device manager, but it does nothing.
The other peculiar thing is: when I hold down the power button it usually went into "Power Off" "Restart" mode.
But it does nothing right now..

Thanks again,
I'll let you know what happens with Dr. Phone Fix tomorrow.

 

AS promised I am checking in to update you on the wonderful service offered by Dr. Phone Fix.
I called at 10:00 AM, but they were not open yet.
I left a message and called back several times, around 11:45 I finally got through to someone who explained I had to speak to a manager.
I'm still waiting for a call back.
I think I'm gonna just show up tomorrow in person and be as assertive as possible without punching someone.
I'll let you know what happens.
Later

 

Not quite, but almost.
I tried calling several times and could not get through ( I guess they have caller ID).
So I went there after work and patiently waited, when it was my turn they said the volume buttons did not work because the micro switches were missing, it was not their fault, etc, etc.
So I asked them to put it back together and return my phone, but while they were doing this, people started coming in, and before I knew it there were 8 or 9 customers in the shop.
That's when I started asking them how many other people they have robbed, and how many other victims were out there because they didn't know what they were doing.
I mentioned the fact that it took SEVEN visits just to get my screen put on correctly, and they were stupid enough to admit it in front of everybody.
One guy gave me his card, he said his cousin is a lawyer.
Soooo they immediately said they would order the new switches and call me when they came in at no charge.
I hope they don't totally screw up my phone, but as it was, it was useless anyways, so I figured I had nothing to lose.
I guess I'll find out when I get it back...
I'll be sure to post up on it.
Thanks for all your help, and for asking.
Hopefully I'll be communicating with you soon with some good news...

 

I'll be lucky if I break even, but it will feel good knowing they did not rob me.

Thanks for your help...

 

Finally got my phone back from Dr Phone Fix,
I was able to go to the ROOT display, and the up/down buttons work (obviously)
Can you help me bring this thing back to life ?

Thanks
