I've rooted my phone and installed the JF 1.5 and updated the radio 2 days ago and the phone was working great. Now this morning it is stuck at the ANDROID logo and then goes to the screen where it looks like it rested to the factory default. Please help!!!!
this happened to me during the root/install updating to cupcake. What i did find was that instead of doing the reset with home+back, i juts popped the battery out and started the phone and it went away. I did have to reinstall the update.zip that i was currently on though first.
tried to boot in to recovery and got a screen with a white triangle and a yellow exclamation point inside above an android robot.
the suggestion is to battery pull. anyone else have this issue? if so, what's the procedure on reboot?
thanks.
I think that's the Stock Recovery Menu ( i kept getting it when i was trying to install the Patches from Fresh & used Clockwork Recovery because the two weren't compatible ).
Do you definitely have a Custom Recovery installed?
You pressed the power button instead of the optical trackpad when trying to reboot from custom recovery
Optical trackpad? What Evo has one of those? LMAO!
Flash Clockwork recovery or AmonRa recovery. You have stock (no recovery).
It is hard to answer your question without further specifics.
For example:
1.) Are you rooted?
a.) If yes, what are you trying to boot into recovery for? - flash radio/wimax or rom???
b.) If no, go to Android Development and read how to Root and install a custom recovery.
2.) If you have a custom recovery, what is it?
to put it simpler than this.
1. What ROM do you have?
2. What custom recovery do you have?
3. What step did you do to get into recovery? - from android or from boot up?
*If you pull a battery while trying to flash a radio, you might have the coolest looking paper weight in your part of the town
Hello shawnathan9!
I have similar problem with my Nexus one.
I have a rooted phone (used superoneclick to root)
Installed clockworkmod and flashed it with the recovery image.
Since I wanted to install latest cynogenmod I used clockworkmod to install the latest radio for it. Now when the phone rebooted it is hung diplaying a white triangle with and exclamation mark inside it. I haven't removed my battery yet and have plugged it to a power source. Can you help me ?
You're rooted, but you are trying to access recovery, but you don't have one loaded. Search google for Amon_RA or clockwork recovery to flash. If you have rom manager, you should be able to flash either or and it should work.
I did the unrevolked 3 and got it rooted. Then I booted it up into the recovery mode and ran clockworkmod. Now how do I get a rom (like mikfroyo 4.5) on it? I tried booting and selecting a zip from my sd card(which mikfroyo 4.5 is on it in zip form still) But it would not finish/aborted ? What am I doing wrong? I have the sptint HTC EVO 4 g phone with all the latest hboot ect on it.

That is part of updating the radio. Just let it finish and it will reboot into recovery. The phone has to go to that screen to update the radio. You may be able to save it by booting into that screen and just let it sit there for a while...eat dinner...take a dump...do whatever and come back and see if your phone is in recovery. I would turn it off and charge it first to make sure you have enough battery to finish the update.
I have the same experience, when I updates to Gingerbread (OTA).

Hello thank you so much for your information. I will leave the phone in that mode (screen hung with triangle an exclamation mark inside + android green logo below) and plug in the charger, until tomorrow morning. Then I have a question if tomorrow the phone still hung in that screen mode, what I have to do?
If you can give me solution, I would be very thankful. Happening in August 23, 2011.

After 2 days, trying to download updates firmware (OTA) GingerBread on HTC Evo 4G, I failed because the phone has been rooted, I found a "superuser permision" app. in the the All apps menu.This meant it is a rooted android phone, which will not permitted to update firmware OTA, is this true? If yes, this is the cause of screen hung at triangle with exclamation inside, and android green logo below.
August 26,2011.
Thats what my phone is doing the clockworksmod menu will not come up only see the
white triangle with the exc symbal with the android symbal. have to pull the battery out ot reset but phone still loads up and works.
I was planning on rooting our DINCs tomorrow night, but the Boss Lady started getting the prompt for the OTA update this morning. So far she has just been using the Back arrow to get back to the Home screen.
We want to NOT install the OTA update until after I root the phones (going to do it TONIGHT now).
So we know what happens if she taps Install Now.
What happens if she taps Install Later or Close?
I don't want the OTA to start pinging the phone and screw up the root process later on tonight.
Update:
Rooted and got s-off on my phone and proceeded to the Boss Lady's
Kept getting the "offer" every minute. I guess because we just backed out of the dialog.
Got hers rooted and s-off.
Next offer, she tapped Install Now.
Waited 30 minutes at a black screen with an icon of a folder with an exclamation mark in a triangle.
Battery was cool so I figured the download wasn't really happening.
Pressed Power and got a log from Clockwork that showed that it had tried to install and failed.
Rebooted.
Still rooted with s-off. No Froyo and no more offers to install the OTA update.
When I held off on updating it was reminding me something like every hour. And every time I rebooted the phone the update popped up. I was able to unrevoke after the notifications came up without any issues.
I try updating my Galaxy Nexus phone running ICS (4.0.4) to the new Jelly Bean (4.1.1).
When looking for new updates it finds the new version, downloads it and checks it. Afterwards I pressed "Restart & Install", the phone shuts down and restarts. I see the Android mascot with a blue shape spinning in front of it and a progress bar below it.
It fills up until about one third and then disappears. The Android mascot appears again this time lying on its back with a red triangle containing a black exclamation mark (!) above its torso (refer screen shot error.jpg).
Afterwards the phone restarts and the Android version is still the old one.
I have attached a screen shot of my system info (Screenshot_2012-07-28-20-14-29.jpg).
Request guidance to do this update. Thanks in advance.

It is failing because something on your device is not stock. Kernel? Radio? Some file you changed? Some file one of your root apps changed? You will either need to look through your logcat to see where it failed, OR, use CWM to install it and it will tell you where it is failing.
Alright so here's the story, I lost my phone for about a year and I recently found it again, and its running old software and I'm trying to update it and every time I go to update it, it gets stuck after rebooting to start the actual update. It gets stuck on the white HTC "quietly brilliant" splash screen with red writing at the bottom. The software version I'm updating from is 1.08.652.11 710RD, and its trying to update to 1.10 something. Never rooted or any custom Roms on it. It even gets stuck when I try to factory reset it from the bootloader menu.

Is the phone from the country you live in?

Yes it is. US Virgin Mobile.
Does it recover back to 1.08 and continue to work?
