I have an Android phone that isn't starting up. All it shows when I power it on is the boot up screen. The recovery mode does not start and the ADB shell on my laptop fails to detect the device as well. What can I possibly do to get my device running again. I don't mind formatting the phone. The device is a Karbonn Titanium S1. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Updated:
- The
adb devices
command detects the device as long as it is switched off and connected to the PC via USB.
- adb shell
-> recovery --wipe_data
gives a segmentation fault '139' error.
- Trying to boot the phone at times ends up in a screen that says:
> **Encryption unsuccessful**
>
> Encryption was interrupted and can't complete. As a result, the data
> on your tablet is no longer accessible.
>
> To resume using your tablet, you must perform a factory reset. When
> you set up your tablet after the reset, you'll have an opportunity to
> restore any data that was backed up to your Google Account.
- The phone does not boot into recovery mode the manual way but does enter a frozen recovery mode when I run the adb reboot recovery
command with an "data mounted failed" error.
