+1 say it just refused to work after you woke up or in the midday ;d and tell nothing about flashing or anything, simply play dumb

Try this
1 remove battery
2press volume down+home+power and insert the battery wile pressing it should open in download mode

No. But via terminal emulator.
Code:
su
cd sdcard
cd romtoolbox
cd recoveries
flash_image recovery recovery_whatever.img
reboot recovery
#*Boom. Bricked.*#

Screen doesn't show up and Odin can't find the device. If emergency mode it will find but stuck at connecting.:sly:

Where's My Xrecovery&FXP Recovery?!

Hi guys, i have a situation here. I can't seem to boot into both of this recoveries. Clockworkmod Recovery is working fine. I boot into it by tapping at the se boot logo. Pressing back button and booting phone while charging don't boot into these 2 recoveries. Please help me,guys. I want them back. I'm using GingerDX v021. I think I may havr gotten this problem after switching ROMs to test around.
Please help me and I will be sure to hit the THANKs for you.

Don't hurry things up. If you want to root, stick with it or leave it stock. Don't play the game you played now.

Flash with odin a rom that has enabled the three button combo, there is a thread here..
Flashing with odin does not perform auto factory reset.

Glad it worked. Since your phone's working now, try Baltrom. I flashed my mini with it today and it seems good. Download the v4.3 and update it with v4.4.
