Hey
My phone does the same thing. It's htc 8x.
I'm stuck on the lightning bolt and gear screen.
I tried every method to perform hard reset still it ends up on the same screen
And sometimes when I press and hold volume down and camera button it goes into the boot loader screen with barcodes and info.
Please help if you found the solution.
