Can any one help me with this Casio. It is my son's phone and has not been rooted. The battery had died on him the other night and when he got it plugged back in.. this is where it sits..... nothing changes... I cant do anything with it. when I plug it into a computer... its not even recognized. He really like the phone and is still milking the unlimited data plan with Verizon.. so we don't want to have to get another phone if we can get this one working again.

Any help would be much appreciated!! I wouldn't even mind rooting the phone if it would get it working again. Just not 100% sure what to load on it or if I can since its not being recognized by the computer :(

Thank you!!
 
I tried to reply to your post last night.. but the forums were having maintenance. Thank you for your post. :) I cannot seem to get this phone into the recovery mode as it states from above. (to the point where my fingers are cramping from holding down these buttons so long!) YIKES. If anyone has any other/more suggestions/tips on how I can get this guy into recovery mode. I do not care about the data on there as I know most has been saved to SD card or Google servers. technically this phone is only a few months old. but bought from a 3rd party with 30 day warranty. :(

My son needs the rugged aspect of this phone... and its sad that is only worked for a few months. :(
 
If that does not work, and your son never installed the custom Ca201-l aboot.IMG (he will know what I mean if he did) then there is no way to get this out of custom recovery.

Tried a few things last night with pc.
USB debugging off
Phone off
Press and hold volume up and down and connect USB cable.
Phone boots up normally then USB switches to upgrade tool mode. Pc finds drivers, Verizon window pops up about loading new drivers. Pc recognized phone as Linux file storage device. But that was as far as I got with it before upgrade tool mode stopped.
Could someone try this on bricked phone, phone stuck on loading screen to see if it will boot completely?

Seems like the only thing it will do is boot phone without using power button

If you plug your phone powered off into your pc (and not a charger) it is the equivalent of turning it on from the power button. The volume buttons add the activation of the upgrade tool mode.
If the phone's system folder is wiped, it will not boot. at all. It has nothing to boot to. That is why it is important to install the custom aboot.img file.

Try pulling the battery out a for a few minutes and then see if it takes a charge.

I have this phone and the cradle. Once in awhile at night, I miss setting it on the cradle the right way and the battery is basically run down. It acts funny when that happens and a battery pull has corrected that. Also don't discount that the battery needs to be replaced.

PS - As far as I know, if you are on an unilimited plan, as long a you buy a new/used phone out right, you should not loose the unlimited plan. On Verizon.com, you can easily change to a different phone as long as the phone has a lean ESN wihout changing your plan - i.e. not stolen. I done this before for my son when he when he finally made a Galaxy S3 unusable. I changed it to an old S1 that I bought off of Ebay a few years earlier so he could use via WiFi.
