Hey guys I have a HTC G2 and I bricked the thing. I basically can't get into adb to reflash it or anything since the phone screen itself wont even turn on. When I do try to turn it on it will sometimes vibrate and the light that turns on when your charging the phone starts blinking.When I do get it to vibrate and I plug it in it shows up in the windows device manager under "Other Devices" as "Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM". It shows error 28 (The drivers for this device are not installed). I will post a screenshot of the device manager and device properties.

I seem to remember having a similar problem with mine. It's been a while, but I think I pulled the battery, plugged in the phone (to AC power), and turned it on. Once it was on, I put the battery back in. I also may have pulled the battery, put it back in, plugged in the phone for a good hour or two, and then tried to turn it on. I'm not sure, but I hope that helps!

Thanks but, the phone itself wont even turn on. The screen never lights up. The phone only vibrates and the charge light starts blinking.
