2C.7C boot loader possible bricked phone HELP!!!!

[Iamthewalrus87]

Ok so I got this phone from a guy that renewed his phone and couldn't fix this problem so I am now trying to fix this so i can use it. Upon start up it goes directly to the boot loader screen with the code 2C.7C. I can boot and hold x to get to the /!\ and then into recovery but it seems like stock recovery, there is no android robot so I don't think it has sprecovery installed... What can I do?

You could try using the method in my signature to root it, or sbf the frg22d fullfile on to it to return it to stock.

ok im working on it but rsd will not recognize my device... i changed it to the first come first serve but it still doesnt see it

ok so i got all the way to sp recovery but the phone did not have any sd card in it when i got it. I put a 2gb card in and then copied the zip file to the sd card but it is saying that E: cant open /sdcard/update.zip (no such file or directory

 

[Iamthewalrus87]

ive read the post and the frequent issues but the file is named correctly and everything... upon regular reboot the phone is still going into bootloader but as i said i do have sprecovery now... it just will not recognize the file on the sd card

Flash a stock SBF to make sure the phone works, reseat the SD card, download the file again in case you got a corrupt download.

ok so i tried both of the methods in the first reply... but the second method i was not sure about... is there a place that will walk me through how to install that stock rom? my rsd is working and i got it to read the sd card file, but im still stuck in bootloader

Please say that again a little more clearly. I'm not 100% sure on what you're trying to do at this point. If you're asking about flashing a stock SBF image instead of the SPRecovery image it's the same except for the booting into SPRecovery and installing the update.zip.

 

[Iamthewalrus87]

ok so basicall I'm still stuck in bootloader... I have sbf. File for the stock rom but not the update.zip can you link me to a thread that has the stock rom and update

 

[Iamthewalrus87]

to be honest I'm not really sure myself where I am at lol I just need a step by step for installing stock if there is one...

You'll want this SBF.

No update.zip involved.

ok so I did that but then when it reboots it starts quickly with no M logo and goes right back into bootloader... Its not letting me get into any kindo of recovery...

This is the error i get...

 

[Iamthewalrus87]

Ok so I am able to get into sprecovery, that sbf worked fine, and once in sprecovery I was able to install the update.zip file... but upon reboot it goes right back into bootloader. am I doing a step wrong or am i just plain bricked.... I just want it to load correctly dammit!!!!!!!! im tired of my almre

That one's a new one on me. Did you catch the reboot?
