Hi,
thank you for reading this post
I'm in trouble with my htc desire.
I've serached around the forum and web for a solution, without success
I have a HTC desire rooted phone. I've been using reduc for a while now.
I updated to the latest redux 1.2 with tom mangager (as usual)
I don't know what went wronf but I'm stuck on the boot white HTC screen
I've tried recovery and it didn't work (I've tried to rename redux 1.1 into update.zip etc) I still get the red triangle error scren
At this moment I have no phone and no solution...
What can I do,
is it "bricked"?
Thank you for helping me out
Regards
Bruno
I had the same problem earlier, when 1.2 was released. It really messed up my phone. I had to use my backup to get to older Redux. I was really afraid to update it again, but after a couple of weeks I tried again and it worked just fine. It was strange.
So if you have any backups, revert. If you don't have any, try to wipe cache and data and flash the Redux Rom again.
If that fails too, download a new ROM with your PC, move it to your phone and flash that. I hope you get your phone to work!
Hi
I always do a backup with rom manager before flashing.
Problem : the backup is a 6 x *.img files folder
And how do I recover it?
Thanks
Hi
I found the solution
I just had to acess the clockworkmodrecovery by presssing volup + power once into HBOOT (accessed with vol down power) before
Once in the good recovery the update.zip file was working and i recovered my backup made before flashing
Yep, that's the way. Good thing you got it figured out. I haven't used ROM Manager, I always flash new ROM's through recovery. You should try to download Redux 1.2 directly from Ihaldes' homepage, check the MD5 and then flash it through recovery. Maybe that works better than the ROM Manager?
OK, so here's the story:
earlier today i decided i wanted to return to RUU so i did all the necessary steps to do this, like flashing htc recovery, downloading the correct RUU.exe and all this stuff, anyway, it didn't work, so i decided to go back to a custom rom. i flashed clockwork mod, franco kernel and picked a rom.
[ROM]maXimus 10.0.0 | JB | Sense 4+ | Fast&Stable | 3.14.401.24 | OTA Updates
i downloaded it, and placed it on the sd card
i booted into cwm, installed it using aroma, everything seemed perfect and just to ensure a good frist boot i erased cache through fastboot.
so i booted and i am stuck at the htc quietly brilliant logo.
i have wiped both the davalik cache and the battery stats and everything i can think of but i cannot get past this screen
oh and 1 more thing, when i try to mount usb storage again now, i get the error
CWM Unable to open ums lunfile (No such file or directory)
any help would be soo appreciated as i am in a dire state here and really need my phone working asap
thanks

First check your hboot number. If its 1.12 or lower you can NOT flash a JB rom.
Second , if.you flash a rom ALWAYS flash the boot.img from that rom and not some other custom kernel.
Take out the boot.img from the rom.zip and flash that one in fastboot. Then flash the rom.zip from recovery !
And a Franco kernel that is based on 2.17 will NEVER work on a JB rom that has kernels based on 3.*** kernels !!!

You probably have a outdated version of cwm recovery. Go to official cwm website and download the latest recovery. Then flash it by typing fastboot flash recovery recoverynamehere.img. This should fix usb storage mounting problem.

Hi! I tried flashing my HTC ONE V (GSM) with Pacman ROM available on this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho....8770.
I started from the very beginning of this process and here is what I did :
1. Unlocked my bootloader using HTCDEV site. ---- WORKED WELL.
2. Installed ClockWordMod recovery - touch version. ----- WORKED WELL.
3. Downloaded Pacman ROM from above link posted on XDA developers only.
4. Downloaded GAPPS for 4.2.x from the link available on the same link above.
5. Fastboot flashed my phone with BOOT.img file available with Pacman ROM ZIP file. ---- WORKED WELL.
6. Copied both the above ZIP files to my SD card.
7. Restarted my phone in Bootloader mode; went for RECOVERY mode from there.
8. CWM Recovery Screen comes up - v5.8.3.1
9. WIPE Data/Factory Reset ---- WORKED WELL.
10. Wipe Cache Partition ---- WORKED WELL.
11. Wipe Dalvik Cache ---- WORKED WELL.
12. Install ZIP from SDCARD.
13. Chose respetive Pacman ROM ZIP file & INSTALLED. ---- WORKED WELL.
14. Rebooted phone.
15. Installed GAPPS ZIP file in similar manner. ---- WORKED WELL.
16. Rebooted phone and still stuck on same RECOVERY MODE screen stating that "This build is for developers only....".
I followed all instructions and applied them in correct order but my phone is now stuck completely.
I tried restoring my backed up ROM (I did made a Nandriod backup of my ROM before starting this process!) but after successful install when it reboots it lands on the same screen and get stuck again..painful!
I even tried FACTORY RESET option with HTC Bootloader..no benefit from that even!
So, I can sense this is a BIG trouble now! Right?? Can somebody please help me in this?
Thanks in anticipation guys!
Cam you get your phone in fastboot mode? Maybe you can than use an official HTC RUU. To let your phone start again.
Then you can try to install pacman rom, see if the problem still comes up
EDIT: RUU downloads are here

Hey!
Yes I am able to Fastboot my phone and I tried installing the HTC RUU as well from the link you provided but still it stucks to the same screen and keeps on restarting every 10-12 sec.
The problem still persists, badly!
Please help..I really don want to pay extra bucks to service center for unbricking my phone.
i think you should flash a kernel, which compatible with stock before you can restore back stock rom.
R: [Q] HTC One V Stuck at RECOVERY MODE screen

Are you able to boot into boot loader mode..?? If yes from there move to recovery wipe everything and flash another ROM and kernel..+ if you want to move back to stock don't try using RUU method search for a stock ROM backup that has the same hboot and radio version as your phone...(if u are able to bootloader mode,there are 99% chances that you'll recover your phone by yourself..)
Good luck...
I've been using viperX for about 9 months now, and today i wanted to upgrade to CM 10. so I downloaded the ROM and used ROM Manager (instead of bootloader) and it after CM was installed, it wouldn't boot. the flash screen was the only thing i saw for about 30 minutes.
then i googled for this situation and found out that most times the solution was to install CM via bootloader, so i tried to do so, and again the same thing happened.
next i thought i should update my bootloader. i was using CWM 2.x, i think it was 2.6.. can't really remember (it wasn't updated since around December 2012 when i switched to viperX). anyway, i tried to install TWRP, downloaded the latest version from their site and used the sdk tools that i already had on my computer (i updated it about a month ago) just as the instructions said. i got no error in the cmd, nor on the phone screen. i tried to get into recovery and got stuck on HTC logo.i tried also downloading the latest version of CWM and the result was the same.
now when I'm trying to boot into CM i get stuck on their logo, and when i try to boot into recovery i get stuck on HTC logo..i couldn't do factory reset either.
my phone is HTC one x (bought in Singapore)
HBOOT version is 1.36.0
any ideas where to go from here?
thanks in advance
You're in the wrong forum, this is the HTC One XL/at&t One X forum. I'll ask for this to be moved to the correct device forum for you.

Hi,
I assume your bootloader is unlocked, I had same problem when I originally tried to flash custom rom (soft bricked phone).
Start from scratch and place fastboot folder in root directory of an easily accesible drive (c and place CWM zip file, Version 5.8.4.0 (for one x) in that folder and use CMD prompt to flash CWM again, then boot into CWM recovery and mount phone as USB storage and hopefully you have backed up original software as Nandroid backup (copy to pc so you have a backup copy). From there you can place CM 10 zip file in root directory of phone and install from CWM after doing full wipe, and wipe cache (all through CWM). Youtube has some good videos (Cursed4Eva in particular) on flashing roms. You may also have to flash boot image or you may get stuck in bootloop.
Hope this helps.

he doesn't need to start from scratch, he knows how to do it. the problem was he was in the wrong forum. did you even read the thread?
Hey all,
I am having issues with my incredible 2 not being able to boot past the HTC boot logo (green type on white bg).
General device history:
-I unlocked the bootloader using the file generated by HTC
-I flashed CWM 6.0.1.5 via fastboot which installed correctly
-I achieved root successfully using SuperSU via CWM
I then attempted to flash Aeroevan's CM10 (20121113) after formatting the device, cache, and dalvik cache. I forgot to make a backup of my existing config beforehand because I was a preoccupied idiot. The ROM installed successfully, and I rebooted the phone. At this point the phone hung up on the HTC boot logo until I pulled the battery.
I am still able to enter recovery, and have tried installing several more ROMs to no avail using the same methodology described above (other Aeroevan CM10 and CM9 releases, various CM7 releases, Condemned CM7; all of which were said to have installed correctly). I also attempted to install "stock" ROMs but for some reason the installation fails on every stock ROM I attempt to install ("can't open [ROM name] (bad)")
I also tried other versions of CWM and pushing ROMs directly to the sdcard via ADP in case there was something wrong with my SD card adapter. Neither of these worked.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
