HELP! I've got a reboot loop :'( - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
i just tried to get root acces on my HTC desire and everything went fine, after the step to update from sdcard i choose reboot and now it wont start-up anymore.
I see a while the HTC logo and then "HTC quitly briliant" and that keeps comming...
Do you guys know how to fix that?
sorry for my language im from holland
Thnx,
Martijn

Did you choose the option to Wipe (factory reset and caches) while in Recovery Mode?
Also, if your rom has the legacy A2SD version integrated, did you partition your SD card correctly?
Do not let it bootloop as this can cause the USB brick issue.

nope i didnt do that

Wipe in recovery, partition SD card if necessary, and it should work for you next time.
If you are using the r5 guide, just launch from step2 to get into Recovery Mode.

i also saw in the display a HTC telephone with a red triangle and exclamation mark, dont know that that means...
Also thnx for your really fast answers!!!!! +10 for you

I am assuming that you are using Benko's guide?
Yes, that is the Recovery screen (phone with red triangle). To get into actual Recovery Mode, you must launch the step2 procedure to get to this mode (green menu screen with options).

ok, im now in the recovery mode (with the green option). And i'm in the whipe menu. Which option do i need to chose? And after that i need to aply the rootedupdate.zip, right?

Yup, great. Now choose Wipe -> Factory Reset.
Again Wipe -> cache.
Again Wipe -> Dalvik cache.
Then flash the rom zip.
Do you need to partition your sd card too?

oh my god. it works again. Sir you're amazing ! thnx thnx thnx

No problem buddy. It was because you did not wipe (factory reset). The rom you now have installed is a generic rom.
I suggest you use Rom Manager app (from Marketplace) with a custom recovery image (ClockworkMod) to flash other roms in the future.
Regards,
Mas.

can i use that APP to flash my device to the custom rom: DeFroST2.1?
At the page of the defrost rom it says i also need to flash a radio and a kernel for overclocking. How to fix that?

Yep, you can use ROM Manager to flash any rom. To change your kernel version, simply flash the zip's using ROM Manager after placing the files to the root if your SD card.
You must install a custom recovery image in ROM Manager beforehand. See the Fake-Flash link in my sig below for more information.

HTC DEsire Hd Boot Problem

Hi
I Wanted To Set a New rom
the rom Was cooked by Spike One of the best cooker in iran .
I Got a backup and after that i wiped my phone with full wiper tools after that i tried to install the rom but i could not because the phone said inistalation aborted
so i reboot the phone from my recovery (3.0.0.5 clockwork) But when i reboot it The Htc page and logo came to my monitor and it never went until i get the battery out of it
help me plz . help me plz
You wiped youf phone. Boot, system and data partitions are empty now so it's sure that it won't boot after wiping all of these partitions.
But no need to worry: probably you had a bad download. Just redownload the rom and flash it again.
Sent out of my Free Candy Van.
Excuse me
but Could You tell me how to flash it ?
Seriously, how do you install the rom as you stated above? (oh, maybe you use Rom Manager, nvm)
Boot into recovery (vol down+power when boot up, select recovery), install zip from sd card, point the rom you've placed in the sd card.

Hello every one
my problem solved
the person who repaired my phone told me that he had connected my phone to a Box (i think in iran we call it ) and after that he flashed it and install 2.3.3 gingerbread
Thank you very much for your help.
Its nice to know that your problems were solved. The box you've mentioned above is called RIFF Box I think.

I know what I did. I didn't take the rom out of the download folder but my phone is still stuck in recovery and the stock android loader so how would I be able to change this?

It doesn't matter what directory your rom is in when you flash it. But do what mintaeroboy said and just reflash the rom.
You COULD go to mounts and storage, mount your SD card to your computer if you really want to move the downloaded rom out of the downloaded folder.
Ok thanks

Read the instructions in the op of stangs rom. It clearly states you must wipe everything in mounts and storage except sd and emmc and also wipe dalvik-cache in the advanced menu.
Basic knowledge, research before doing any ROM,

How to install wifi fix?-wifin update-2.6.35.14-snq-111011

Hello,
at the moment i use the Rom [ROM][23/12/11][2.1+3.0] RevolutioN v3.0 [Fast|Stable|Clean|Beautiful|A2SD+] an i have a problem with my wiofi connection it freezes after round about 15 minutes , i tried to install the wifi n update-2.6.35.14-snq-111011 via recovery but i wasnt able to install it, i just coulndt choose it at recovery to begin with?
Can someone help me? ( Itried already in the rom Thread)?
Greetz Neewes
wifi n from snq is just update of his kernel... you need to flash kernel first...
wipe dalvik and cache...
you could not find it in recovery or whole sdcard did not mount?
post info from your fastboot... it will help us to help quicker
No need to wipe cache and dalvik. Kernels can be installed without wiping anything ! Just install the zip through recovery and all is fine !

And check your WiFi sleep policy in settings....

MetroPCS Wildfire S recovery issue and bootloop problem.

Hello folks,
Ok here is my problem. First my phone is a Marvelc EVT1 / S-On RL, my Bootloader is "unlocked"
I was foolishly exploring the options in TitaniumBackup Pro and selected the clear dalvik cache and the disassociate dalvik from system (a dumb move, I know). So when I restarted my phone it got caught up in a bootloop from the MetroPCS splash screen to the HTC boot screen. I can get into HBoot just fine however, when I select factory reset, it goes into the factory install screen, then reboots into the bootloop process. When I select recovery I get into the recovery menu and can select reboot, install update from SD, wipe cache/factory reset or clear user info, but still even after doing all of that and selecting reboot, it goes back into bootloop. I didnt have clockwork installed because I thought Titanium would suffice as a backup utility.
Ive looked a few custom mods but I can't figure how to get them on my phone without access to the Android UI. I kinda figure that my phone is not a total lost cause because when I connect it via USB, the Android Composite Interface device as well as a hard drive icon appears when I connect the phone via USB. So I'm really desperate for some comprehensive instructions on fixing this issue if it is even possible. Any help would be super.
Thanks in advance,
Gary
EDIT: removed picture.
Obviusly the OP managed to edit his post to more than "Hello folks"
Maybe you could fast boot flash clockwork with adb then flash one of insinks metro roms (just an idea I don't know to much about this)
Sent from my HTC_A510c using Tapatalk
You need to fastboot clockwork mod recovery onto your phone, then from cwm you need to wipe your cache, dalvick cache and factory reset the device. After that place the rom if your choice on your sdcard and flash it. Follow the thread for your rom for specific roms

Thanks a ton for your info. I'll try that however every CW mod tutorial I've read always assumes that I had access to the android GUI. So I didn't understand how i could actually install it to phone. Your words are encouraging and I don't feel that this is a lost cause. Back to the research table/drawing board.
Thank again,
Gary

Either you underclocked by mistake
The way to solve this prob is to reinstall the rom,because cm10 roms aren't laggy at all

Its like this son...forget about formating the system,bla bla...just do as i say
1.go to recovery and backup your current Rom(if you already didnĀ“t)
2.wipe data/factory reset
3.wipe cache
4.go to advance and wipe dalvik cache
5.go back-install zip from sd card-choose zip from sd card(Rom of your choice)
6.install zip from sd card-choose zip-gapps
7.reboot system
during the boot animation press down the power until it goes black and hold it and press volume down to go into bootloader
8.when those wrong images you see ends,choose fastboot
9.plug in your usb to pc and to your phone
10.it should say fastboot usb-now you can flash the kernel (boot.img) specific to the rom that you flashed before
when its done reboot and enjoy.
dont worry about overclocking now as these kernels are set to work out of the box(you can play with them later)
For easier kernel flashing go check this out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1676686
