[Q]HELP! My Desire got into restarl loop and can't restore

Hi guys,
I've just partitioned my SD CARD through ROM Manager. Partition of 512MB and 0MB of SWAP.
After that I turned on the Desire and Went to the rom manager and tried to Flash a ROM. - this went unsuccesfully because the ROM Manager could see my SD Card.
So, in the ROM MANAGER I pressed the thing that gets you into the recovery mode, and there when i was trying to flash the room, if could see the sd-card again.
I tryied to restore, but it said that it has nothing to restore(first of all i've just backed up before starting, and even before that I had tons of backups).
I gave up the restore and restarted my phone, which also went unsuccesfully.
I've got into a restart loop where the phone turnes up till the opening page, has a little time of black screen, and than again-opening screen.
PLEASE HELP ME. ANYONE???
EDIT: I have just connected the SD CARD to the computer through a card reader, and he is almost empty! It has only 2 folders: .android_secure, .footprints, Android, LOST.DIR
what should I do?!
Maybe some1 can upload here all his SDCARD content and by that i'll copy it into my, and maybe it will work again
EDIT #2: NOW I'CANT ENTER THE RECOVERY MOD AT ALL!!!
it just stuckes on the with screen showing the HTC sign.

A partition will delete the contents of a sd card you should of backed up you nandroid first.... go to recovery mode by holding vol down and pressing the power button while the device is off, and choose recovery from the menu, clear the dalvik cache and see if your device will boot

Sorry for the ignorance, but what RUU is?, I really didnt get your post

Before rooting it's advised to check the original ROM running on your phone and get a copy of that RUU (ROM Upgrade Utility) so you can always revert back to stock if things go wrong. I assume you don't know what your phone originally came on?

Unfortunately you are write.
So.. is there something for me to do?

check this link with all the official RUUs and download one that is from your region or download the generic World wide english one (WWE)
its a utility that runs on windows and installs a fresh official ROM on your device

dude and where is the link?
*During the RUU installation it says to turn on my phone and do several things...
I CANT TURN ON MY PHONE!

Try.
Try reformatting your sd card in windows first?
If you have ubuntu, you could use gparted to format it.
Or use another sd card.
Since you can access your sd card, download clockworkmod and the necessary files needed to root your phone, including a new rom. (I don't know how its like on windows as i use a mac so...)
Start the rooting process again using unrevoked. See if it starts up your phone.
If you can, flash the new rom.
Hopefully everything will work out.
P.S. What rom were you using before this happened and what version of rom manager were you using? Perhaps this might help other people.

First of all, I was using the newest version of ROM Manager and an Israeli ROM based on the LEEDROID.
but it all relays to the past, i got my phone back on track!!!
I found an old folder on my computer which included all my SDCARD content(I rememberd that i've backed up it on the pc once), so i copied everything to the SD, and than it let me into the recovery mod, and i had an old Nandroid backup.
EVERYTHING IS FINE NOW, THANKS EVERYBODY FOR TRYING!

[Q] LeeDroid 3.0.8.2 Help

hi,
i have just tried to install LeeDroid 3.0.8.2 and am panicked that i've bricked my phone.
I partitioned the sdcard using Rom Manager - also downloaded and flashed the rom via rom manager.
It seemed to do its thing fine and the leedroid screen loaded up, but now it just keeps looping back on itself showing me that its installing making this funny beeping sound and then goes back to the leedroid screen for maybe 15 seconds and repeats.
Anyone know ever have this experience? can any one help?
thanks

Please make a search...
The best way to avoid bootloop is first to partition the SDcard with Gparted...
Then you need to check a few things (your hboot version among others)
good reading !!!

If it's looping at that point it is almost certainly a problem with the SD-card ext3 partition. Rom Manager is not terribly reliable with making that.
The Gparted suggestion is by far the best solution (assuming you have a PC with a card reader, rather than trying to do it with card mounted in phone)
If you *do* have a reader then try LiveCD with gparted, burn to CD and boot from that.
Make your first partition FAT32, and your ext3 partition at the end of the card. (1GB recommended). Make sure both partition are marked as "primary".

Sorry for jumping in here, but I also need help with this rom (sorry uber noob and all). Figured since the thread was so fresh may as well ask here.
Basically trying to install leedroid v3.0.8.2 (data ++) for my original htc desire.
Cant download from either of the links, they both lead to url 404s.
And i also tried downloading from both rom manager and also the minisite, these downloaded but seem to be corrupt. I cant open the zip file and trying to flash it returns a cant flash (bad) message.
Anybody know where i can get a working zip of this version?

Have you tried here and choose the ROM you want from the white scrolling list? The 3.0.8.3 data version downloads for me.

[Q] HTC One X with CoreDroid 4.4 Stuck at boot/startup

Hello everyone,
I have a huge problem with my OneX and desperate for any help. Usually the search engine of this Board gives me all the answers I need to solve my "rooting"-problems, but this time I have no Clue:
I had a rooted HTC OneX with CoreDroid 3.5 working fine. Two days ago I recognized a new version on the CoreDroid website (CD 4.4) downloaded it, copied it to the SD card, installed it as update with CWM. But now EVERYTIME I start the phone it boots and the moment (+/- 1 sec) after I can see the Background and the "lock-screen-coin" it stops responding to anything I do and reboots over and over and over.
Back when I had an HTC desire I just connected the mSDCard to my PC copied a different ROM and installed it, which is NOT possible with the OneX because there is no mSDC... There are no other Roms on the internal flash memory and apparently I have no backups. I reinstalled CD 4.4 with (I think) every possible installing options - no effect - I need to get access to this god damn internal flash storage in order to copy a different ROM (I guess thats the only method of solving this) from my PC on it. I already tried the CWM funtion "Mount USB Storage", still CWM replies "Unable to open UMS Lunfile (No such file or directory)".
What can I do about this, or am I fuc*ed?
I really hope someone can help me with this,
Have a nice day

[Q] (solved) uninstalled OS, unable to connect to computer

I hate to be that guy, but i have tried searching the forums and have had no luck...
Basically while flashing CM10 I screwed up and installed the wrong Gapps pack (never trusting goo manager again)
I got stuck in an endless boot cycle (saying 'installer has stopped' on boot, not allowing any actions)
I did a wipe before attempting to restore... and then my backup was gone.
So now I'm stuck with either attempting to restore to stock (which I'm ok with, I think this is not really my game) or going to a custom rom.
But right now I have no OS installed and my computer will not recognize the device. I have tried kies, installing / reinstalling sammy drivers, and i still can't get anything to appear except for a cd drive.
I have tried on windows xp pro, xp media edition, windows 7 home, same result.
I can still boot into download mode and recovery (i have TWRP as my recovery)
but again, i somehow wiped my backup, i can't get my computer to recognize i have a phone, and i don't have access to an SD card port.
If I get an micro sd card reader, would that give me the ability to copy the rom zip file?
I would really appreciate any advice anyone can give me.
Help! is there any way to fix my phone?
EDIT: MY PROBLEM WAS I had just recently installed a 64gb microsd card, and it was not formatted correctly... ended up getting the correct version of Gapps and a stable version of cyanogenmod (10.1) and installing them onto my girlfriends SD card (which was only 32gb and formatted correctly). I went to walmart and got a SD card to USB adapter for $8, loaded the zips onto that, and flashed them very quickly and easily through TWRP.
Not sure if it makes a difference but I flashed CM FIRST by itself, then after that booted up all nice and happy I went back and flashed Gapps (because without google what are you supposed to do? use it as a phone!? )
and everything installed perfectly and without a hitch.
Thanks for the quick help everyone!

Your not bricked at all, you just have no os.
In twrp make sure your looking at the external sd card foe your backup. And yes if you can get a micro sd card reader/adapter, you should be able to copy a rom file to it.

Re: [Q] soft bricked, but not able to connect to computer
You could also just put the sdcard in another phone and access it on your computer through THAT one
But yeah, as said above, you just have no OS.

Re: [Q] soft bricked, but not able to connect to computer
Thanks guys. I ended up using an SD card adapter, and loading the zip onto that.
Feel kinda silly for not thinking of that before.
Finally got CyanogenMod to load though!I tried it before only to get that installer has stopped error.

Help on the way
THERE IS 2 WAYS TO FIX IT.
1. POWER OFF THE DEVICE ONCE IT IS POWERED OFF FULLY HOLD THE BACK BUTTON WHILE HOLDING IT PLUG IN USB CABLE AND FLASH DOOMKERNAL AND THEN I RECOMMEND YOU SHOULD PUT DONUT HD ON THE SD CARD THEN. UNPLUG USB AND THEN POWER ON DEVICE ONCE YOU FEEL IT VIBRATE RAPIDLY PRESS BACK BUTTON YOU SHOULD BE ON CWM THEN INSTALL ROM AND YOUR SET.
2.DOWNLOAD Sony PC Companion AND THEN CONNECT PHONE THEN GO ON REPAIR PHONE AND IT WILL TELL YOU THE REST.
NOTE: DO NOT TRY TO INSTALL NO MORE CM IT HAPPENED TO ME ONCE THE WHOLE PHONE DIDN'T WORK GOT STUCK ON BOOTCYCLE
ANOTHER NOTE: IF WIFI DOSEN'T WORK JUST DOWNLOAD WIFI MODULS HERE
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1253853 JUST SCROLL DOWN UNTIL IT LOOKS LIKES YOU FIND THE WORD NEW.
OVERCLOCK MAY NOT WORK. RECOMMENDED IS NOT CLOCKED.
3.I RECOMMEND REPAIR IT WITH SONY PC Companion THEN ROOT IT AFTER ROOT JUST PUT CWM AND THEN PUT DOOMKERNAL AFTER THAT FLASH DOOMKERNAL THEN GO INTO CWM AND THEN PUT DONUT HD INSIDE AND YOUR SET.

[Q] T805 wont flash any rom "/system"???

Okay my problem is im unable to flash any rom...what ive done
Was on stock firmware unrooted, connected to pc and rooted.
Then installed twrp bootlooder , then downloaded ng5 rom and tried installing through bootloader and the end string was just "/system" after 2 mins of hanging on installing rom with percentage bar.
Tried the basic rom v3 and had exact same result.
Flashed a new bootloader philz touch recovery
Did the same thing to both roms when attemt of flashing.
Other possibly related incidents... tried to enable mass storage not long after using some root app which claimed microsd card wasnt
mounted
Tried to install the avast mobile tracker rooted version and it wouldnt embed itself to the main built in rom with an error that implied it couldnt write to /system ...then tried the second option given by avast for older devices where it generates some zip that you then flash...guess what it wouldnt do that either saying make sure your sd card is mounted.
Ive verified root with two apps...my memory card is accessable and readable and im lost...am i...half rooted...is it an s-on device with nand protection??? Coz its acting like how i would image one to from my reading!!
Just really want to flash another rom and sick of being trapped with stock
Any advice would be ledgendary.
