Is my phone bricked?

So turned my phone on this morning and it will only go to the HTC "white" screen and just sit there, will not boot or do anything else.

I turned off the phone and tried to enter bootloader mode and that doesn't work either.

Any ideas guys? Thanks!

Re: Is my phone bricked?

Ok first the term "bricked" would mean that your phone is as good as a brick. Meaning your phone wont do anything. The fact that your phone does something means its not bricked. You could try doing a adb push.

Until you put a little mortar between your phone and a similar one, I think it is not hopeless.
