Well, i recently installed the MIUI rom to see if the battery bug was fixed, but its not.

So, i was triyng to go back to the ics leak, as always.

But now, i don't know why, when i'm in the step 14/21 the program doesn't move.

I mean, the '>>' is still moving, but i left it about an hour and it's still there.

Any ideas?​

Wait, you installed MIUI and now you're trying to use RSDLite to flash the ICS leak? That won't work. Which leak are you trying to flash? You're teetering on the verge of a soft brick if you go down this road. Not good...

Oh crap ^^

Firts i flash the '5.5.1-EDEM-27-MEARET_cfc.xml' with RSD lite. Then, when i'm on 2.3.6 i uptadte something via OTA. And then, i flash via recovery 'Blur_Version.55.28.37.MB865.MERetail.en.06.zip'


So, what should i do now?

Uh oh... you installed an OTA from 2.3.6? Do you know what the update was for? If it was for the OTA to ICS, and you tried to flash a GB .xml or something lower than the official OTA to ICS, you likely have yourself one of those fancy non-FXA'able soft bricked devices... :(

Edit: If you were on MEARET you may stand a chance to FXZ back to GB, and try to re-OTA to ICS, as some users have noted success with. But, I'm not making any promises in your case...

@Apex, i tried the back to GB from ICS utility and I'm stuck at the dual core screen. I can access AP fastboot however. I was on the stock ICS leak, and i deleted safestrap, and logwrapper and logwrapper.bin files, and upon rebooting i was stuck at boot screen, now after trying the utility I am still in the same position... any help??

No, no. I doesn't installed anything yet. That was the steps that i do to go into ICS Leak, but now, y cant pass throught the first the step. When i flash the .xml it freeze at 14/21.

But, my other problem is that i don't have enough battery, and i think i'm going to the warrancy service.

If you were on the first leak, and tried to FXZ back to GB, you still have a fighting chance. It's only when on the 2nd leak (as was my case) that's there's no known way out of that soft brick. I'm sure Jim or alteredlikeness will see this and figure out how to bring you back out. Sorry, I'm not much help without my knowledge of FXZ'ing back from ICS leak #1. You shouldn't worry too much, I think you're situation is 'fixable'...

Made it to ICS without looking at this thread

I ran into the same issue freezing at 14/21 and failing at 16/21. Being stubborn I continued installing updates.
When an update is ready to install and my phone restart and say flash failure, I would hold both volume buttons and press the power button, once to exit and again to reenter. Next I would scroll to recovery and the installation would continue.
First update 2.3.6 then ICS. During ICS update I had flash failure a couple time but I just redo the button combination the scroll to recovery, thinking everything would be wonderful. :confused:
Well I now have ICS installed but my ringtones and notifications won't stick. When I shut down my phone is goes back to the flash failure screen and will not charge automatically while off. These are the only issues I've noticed, I'm sure there is more...
Please help!
