Ok I am running the latest Skyraider sense rom. I notice my battery draining very rapidly today so I was going to do a hard reboot.
Pulled my battery and when my phone came back on everything was looking wierd, my wallpaper had changed, sense was on my homescreen, (I use launcher pro) and my homescreen was cluttered with a bunch of camera icons and some other stuff. So I figured it was a glitch and pulled my battery again and booted up. Same thing. Plus every app I try and launch force closes on me.
So I know I have some Nandroid backups on my sd card so I figure I'll just load one of them up and be good to go.
I get into hboot, and as you know my choices are:
Fastboot
Recovery
clear storage
simlock
factory reset
I click on recovery and it doesn't load up clockwork mod recovery, but now my choices are
bootloader
reboot
reboot bootloader
power down
WTF? Where do I go from here? Any help will be much appreciated!
Have you tried booting into recovery directly by powering the phone and holding volume up?

If you use the unrevoked tool you can just choose a custom image from the file menu before plugging in your phone. In other words, point to the appropriate image for your screen type and the rest of the process is the same.

Here's a post I made a little while ago.

Sure...the screenshot is attached. As you can see, "Disable Security on Phone" is checked (which turns S-OFF). When you click "Custom Recovery..." (in the screenshot), it brings up a file dialog. Just navigate to your "recovery.img" and hit okay. I forgot to mention that you need to unzip the PB31IMG.zip so that you can see "recovery.img". I hope I clarified. Let me know how it goes (it took me about 10 minutes once it starts). I am running all of this in Linux (Ubuntu 10.04), so there may be some tweaking you have to do with USB drivers and uninstalling HTC Sync (IIRC, from what I've read if you're running Windows), but it sounds like you're past that.

thanks for everyones suggestions.
Just loaded a stock 2.1 pb31img file. I forgot this was an option when I was having my heart attack. everything is fine now.
Just wish I knew what went wrong to begin with.
I have a custom built Rom on my Evo and I have what may be considered as a stupid question. When I go to reboot and it gives the list of options, I noticed an option called bootloader. I was just curious as to what it does?
Can anyone help?

Boot loader is like the bios screen on the computer.
You can do certain functions from it such as flashing. The bootloader functions can be considered as a sort of last resort. Most flashing is done through the recovery program (similar to a hard drive imaging program). If you can't boot into the boot loader and your recovery is hosed, your chances of debricking the device are slim
Thanks a lot. My recovery works just fine. I guess I really don't have to worry about it.

Hi. I've searched many forums - XDA, cyanogenmod, but no one seems to have this problem, and I'm not sure if it's a software problem or a hardware problem. Here's the problem...
Up until a while ago, my CM7 RC2 DZ has been fine, but because I don't boot my phone all the time, I don't remember when it started happening (but it must have started after RC2 was released). Upon booting up the phone - whether it was reboot, power on from off state, or anything, the phone first VIRBATES. normally, after that I'm presented with a WHITE SCREEN with green HTC in the middle, shortly following that, the Cyanogenmod Boot Animation. Now however, i don't see that screen anymore, nor do I see the boot animation. But, the phone still boots into the system normally, albeit having a issue with the display still not activating (the button's lights go on, but the screen is off. something I've read about, and still can't fix). This didn't bug me too much, but now that I"m trying to flash CM7 stable, I realize it's a problem - I can't boot into HBOOT or Recovery, because I don't SEE anything... it's just all black after I reboot. Can't boot into HBOOT or RECOVERY to do any troubleshooting or flashing new firmwares(so i can't navigate because there's no control to "Unlock" or "wake" the screen up in HBOOT or RECOVERY mode). All I see is that the display doesn't even have a backlight - it's almost as if the phone is "off" because there's no indication that it's on.
Somebody please help me =( my phone is still functional and usable... so long as I don't try to access RECOVERY or HBOOT.
So what you are saying that when you Hold volume down + power the hboot doesn't show up?

correct. The phone does it's boot up "vibrate". the screen does not flicker, does not light up, nothing happens. So i can't boot into HBOOT, RECOVERY, i CAN boot into the phone itself (I know it's booted because my buttons light up). But I no longer am presented with any sort of startup screen ( or any screen for that matter )... making it impossible to access any sort of backup utility, etc ...

So when I go to Clockwork Recovery, and I try to ask it to boot into RECOVERY, it'll reboot, vibrate, and... that's it lol
It goes without saying that I cannot perform a hard factory reset, ... that requires me to get into HBOOT.

Hmm... I wonder if the hboot file got messed up somehow.You have eng-hboot. Do you know how to use ADB by any chance? I was asking if you had the eng-hboot because you need it for adb. I just want to see if adb can find your device because that would be helpful

adb still can detect my device. I just punched this into my Mac Terminal:
$ adb devices
List of devices attached
HT0ARRV02688 device
I don't quite remember the name for it... but was it called Z Combined Root? Had to Temp ROot and then Perm Root using a special file with filename wpthis-Z.ko (this is the only file I remember that was special esp for the DZ)
As for flashing stock, I don't actually know how to do that via adb...

That's good that adb can see it because people with some type of issue don't have eng-hboot and the can't flash the stock rom, well that what's I've been reading. Also by any chance you used visionary to get temp root? If not I think you used the rage method.
Also am not really good using Adb. Sombody will sure come to help you with this part. Anyways let hope we can fix this issue.

I have..dropped my phone I suppose, but it didn't affect the display when I'm actually using the phone... that's the weird part. If the display gave out, I would assume I wouldn't be able to use the phone at all. There's no physical damage to the exterior of my phone at all... it was a pretty light drop, but I didn't see where it landed on the phone...

bump. i still need help on this... it won't turn on. miraculously, the boot worked ONCE. Coincidentally it was the time I called in to Bell Customer Service/Technical Support. Felt really stupid when it ONLY worked when I was on the phone with the technician and he told me to VOL DOWN + POWER. it worked when He was on the phone with me =_=... therein after I flashed Cyanogenmod 7 Stable, and I have resumed having these problems once again. So I can at least confirm it's not only on RC2 - it's on CM 7 as well. I'm starting to think it isn't the software, but probably a corrupted bootloader.
If you want to be directed to the ClockworkMod menu but can't navigate to it use ROM manager or Quickboot plus to get there. You might to need a ROM on your sdcard or have one installed. The reason for your boot trouble is a file might corrupted in the folder that contains your boot animation. This might not be fixed by flashing a new ROM but its worth a try. Use third party apps like ROM Manager and Quicknoot plus to open up your ClockMod Recovery Menu if necessary to install a new ROM. Hope I helped

thanks, but I"ve already tried that. Because i cannot access clockwordmod, i've been using ROm manager ever since, and it's still difficult to manage because I kind of have to trust that the phone does what it's doing when i tell it to backup or flash something... in the end, it still ends up having to restart to do the flashing, but like I said I can't see the screen to actually know if stuff is actually getting done. I want to know how I can reflash the boot animation, because i'm also quite positive it's a problem with the boot but not the firmware..
Hi all,
Was attempting to root my desire HD and install CM7. Somehow, I managed to screw up the phone. I was using ACE so at some point I had root, and was able to flash different partitions (which is where I screwed up). Here are the facts:
1. Phone boot loops
2. There's no working recovery partition (I manually flashed that when I did have root), and a completely busted system partition
3. the phone is still S-ON (not sure how this stayed this way) - which means I can't fastboot
I tried downloading and installing the stock ROM, and it loaded, and installed - but then neither 'recovery' nor 'factory reset' do anything. Both still lead to boot loops...
From researching the web, I understand that:
1. If I don't have S-OFF - I can't fastboot, and even the PD98img.zip won't install
2. I can't get S-OFF without having a working system first (either via HTC's tools or some root'ing app).
Am I SOL, or does anyone have ideas of what I should try?
thx.
Blake

You haven't tried running an RUU yet? It restores your phone to factory state. Best way is to flash an RUU and start over with the Advanced Ace Hack Kit. I'm pretty sure you didn't read the manual properly and follow it word for word. By RUU I don't mean the PD98IMG.zip, I mean the exe file. Connect your phone to the computer and run the exe.

I tried - but i got the 'failed to communicate with your phone, make sure USB is connected and phone is in debug mode'...As I understand it, running the exe requires that phone to be in a working state. I only have hboot now...
Am I mistaken?
In hboot, press power on fastboot. When FASTBOOT shows up in a red background, then connect it to the computer and try running the RUU.
If that doesn't work download the htc sync (drivers). You need to switch of the antivirus before installing. The program will prompt you before.

Ok - I managed to get the right RUU from shipped-roms, and I used it to flash the ROM. It took a few mins, and then told me that it was successful.
However, I'm still stuck in a boot loop...
Any ideas?
Blake
Thanked you by mistake. Tell me, how long are you waiting after turning on the phone before considering it to be boot looping? For any ROM, the first boot always takes time. Not too long, but a few minutes. In that time it will just show the HTC splash screen. This happens because the dalvik-cache has to be built and the time it takes depends on the number of apps. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think you're assuming too soon that it's bootlooping. Wait for some time and see.

Can someone please help me, PLEASE!!
I just want to be able to download the data from my phone, I don't care about getting android working again right now, I just want to download my photos and videos from the phone. I have a Verizon Galaxy Nexus that's completely stock, including locked bootloader. I tried using the toolkit and I am able to have it see the device while it's in fastboot but I can't do any of the functions because it wants to unlock my bootloader which will erase all my data! I was just swapping the battery on my phone when this happened. I wasn't trying to do anything special, it was just supposed to be a normal boot up but it just got stuck on the "X". I'm running 4.1.1. My stock recovery shows a photo of a dead android and an exclamation point. It looks like this: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jF4CgOU8c...ASKg/m6YOuDRcs4g/s1600/AndroidRedTriangle.JPG
Can someone please help me? I will seriously send you a paypal for your time, just please help me the data from my phone. I am somewhat savvy, like I said...I am in fastboot, my drivers are installed, and the toolkit can recognize my phone without any issue.
Thank you soooo sooo much in advance!
Why don't you just boot into stock recovery and just wipe cache. Maybe some rogue app is preventing your boot up.
You will not lose any data by only wiping cache.

Don't fear....
Even if you unlock your boot loader your data is not actually gone. But let's cross that bridge if we get there.
First things first: take your battery out, take your sim card out, put your sim card in and put your battery in. Boot up the phone.
If that doesn't fix you then the next thing to do is try safe mode. Power off the phone. Then, press the power button and BOTH (yes both) the volume up AND the volume down buttons. Hold them until the phone boots up.
If that doesn't work write back. Don't worry though. Your data is safe.

First, thank you so much for replying.
I should have been more clear in my original message, I took my battery out and sim card in and out over 10 times and I even let the phone sit there for 30 minutes while it was at the X animation to no avail.
I have now also attempted a safe mode boot 4 times with no luck. During my safe mode boot attempts, the phone vibrated a few times but the display just remained at the X animation. It even did it after I let go of the volume key. I'm not sure what to make of this but I attempted it twice with holding both volume keys down as soon as the "google" logo appeared and twice with just the volume down key as soon as the "google" logo appeared. Same thing all 4 times, just sits at the X animation.
What would you recommend as a next step to recover the data? I really only care about the DCIM folder, nothing else matters that much.

When you see this, press power+ vol up to get to the stock recovery menu. There is a wipe cache option there. It may take you a few tries to press both buttons at exactly the same time, but keep trying. No need to reboot in between tries.

I think you need to get into fastboot, unlock the bootloader (if it isn't already) and put a clean factory image on. You'll lose your data when you unlock, but there is a thread in this forum on recovering that information. If you're already unlocked, just flash the boot and system images individually - it may clean up whatever is corrupt.

I tried this, it recovered only 36 files out of a 28 GB data file, and the files it did recover were all just files that have been on the phone since I unlocked the bootloader, flashed a custom recovery and flashed a stock OS so I could boot up and do all this. Frankly it seems like the files recovered were all the ones that were on the phone since I flashed a rom, none of my previous data are there. I followed the instructions to a T. Am I doing something wrong? Is the recovery software limiting me somehow because I am not using the paid version?
You have been so kind and helpful thus far, please assist me in figuring out what else I can do.
Thank you!
