Help Bricked my Ascend

Y

YouThere

Newbie
Heya, I'm pretty sure I just bricked my Huawei Ascend. It is on the Huawei logo and won't move to anything else. I don't know what to do and I've tried to hold the buttons down but it didn't do anything.

This happened while I was deleting stuff to install icarus. I have the file in my folder. I realized I was using 3.0 of Clockworkmod Recovery (found the thread on how to update it to 2.x). I rebooted my phone and bam. Brick brick brick.

How can I fix this?
 
I'm new at this. I've tried Volume Up, Call, and power button - didn't work. Then I did Volume Down, End, power button - also didn't work. What am I missing?

Pull the battery, go take a leak, get a drink, tap the wife/gf. Then put the battery back in and hold Send, Vol Up, Power. Also if your phone is plugged in, unplug it when u pull the battery.

The key words are tapping the wife/gf.. That always works..

Hope you get it fixed..
 
try this also before plugging the phone usb press the following Volume Down, End, power button, once the huawei screen comes up and stays there than plugin your phone and open cwm and than repeat the steps to install 2xxxx or 3xxxx which ever one your trying to install.
 
Okay so every time I reboot, I get into the logo screen where it just stays that way. I can't access my SD Card like this.

How can I fix this?

do you have CWM installed or is your phone bone stock n doing this? if its the latter you might want to take it to a store.

Or read the flash to stock thread n do the fastboot method to restore your phone like it was when it came out of the box.

I actually watched a video to confirm what I'm doing. This guy did the same process I did, but his phone restarted. Mine didn't. The script file ran and instantly closed. My phone is plugged in, it's showing the logo (Volume Down, End, Power) and it's not doing anything. What am I doing wrong?

make sure you open the MetropcsStock folder and not cwm folder, thats 2 different things.

yep seems like he was opening the wrong folder cause only the fast boot file will appear and close instantly. Also make sure you click MetropcsStock-recovery, once your download that file and abstract iot to desktop.

abstract?? but I hate abstracts lol
 
Oh okay thank you I extracted it to desktop and it works like a charm. Now, if I wanted to recover from a backup file (I have one saved), how would I go about doing this?
