Copy another rom to ur sd card. Make sure the rom is not corrupted. And try to install the rom from recovery mode. Oh.. dont forget to do a full wipe. Good luck.

Copy a rom that doesnt require AP2SD+ , like leedroid 2.1a NOAp2sd . Put it on your SDcard with a card reader , if you dont have a reader you can use your phone , there is somewhere in recovery a option to mount sd to usb.
If you have problems , write back here , there is nothing broken at your phone.
If you are able to get into bootload you can flash a stock froyo zil and unroot and try again to do what you originally wanted. Might be the easiest and safest thing I think

my desrie has been running fine until today.
was running the open desire rom but changed the pinky desire 1.8 a few weeks ago.
when using phone today a few apps kept force closing so i decided to reboot the phone.
it kept sticking on the loading screen, it would go black for a second as if it was about to load as normal but then it would loop back to the loading screen.
i tried factory reseting from clockwork recovery console then wiping cache and data and then re installing a rom.
now it just sits on the first HTC screen the one you get after powering up.
EDIT ; i have googled and had a bit of a search for answers. have tried most of them with no positive results.
have probably made things worse,
while waiting for a possible reply on here and various tinternet searches for my problem i was tryingh all sorts to get it working again.
and have now wiped the SD card data completley. so now i cant load a rom from the SD card.
i tried coping my sd card back up data from my pc back on to the card but it cant run the update.zip file to get into the recovery mode.
will i have to use my gold card to get some sort of working rom on my phone now?
OK first thing to try is ensure the SD card is formatted correctly, so boot into recovery and partition the SD card. You want 0swap, 512EXt2, and rest fat32. Then still in the partiton menu upgrade ext2 to ext 3.
Once that is done, while still in recovery you should see an option for usb toggle or or something it's called. With the usb lead plugged in this will mount your SD card on the computer so you can copy your rom onto it.
From there you should be able to flash in the usual way.
Edit: just re-read your second post, and realised you can't boot into recovery. You will need a card reader to put the update.zip on, or you should be able to flash an ruu. You'll likely need your goldcard for that, and then re-root afterwards.

i take it i dont need my gold card if my phone has been debranded?
the stock roms are ruu files and all the guides i have read including
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696189
this one im guessing you need your phone to access htc sync..
if my phone is not loading up how can i put a stock rom or unroot from the recovery console?
i have managed to put back in the fake flash update zip and have that working now at least.. tried installing a custom rom zip from the SD card from recovery console on the phone but it is still stuck on the HTC screen.
Have u tried a stock rom, running an RUU? Do it like this enter bootloader and connect the phone to the computer it should be found by the computer, in your phone should apear fastbootUSB or bootloaderUSB, something like that..
Hope it works

case closed, thanks for the help and input guys..
i followed the guide
from benko286
1. Download this
2. Turn off Desire and then turn it on while holding back button to enter bootloader(white screen)
3. Once in "white screen" press power button again to enter bootloader
4. Connect Desire with PC
5. Press Volume Down and than Power to enter Recovery
6. Now the red triangle should show up, go to folder you downloaded file and press recovery-windows.bat, recovery-mac.sh or recovery-linux.sh depending on which OS you have
7. Now you are in recovery mode (green screen), press Wipe and than Wipe data/clear storage, than press optical tracker to confirm it
8. After that press Volume Down to go back to main menu in recovery
9. Navigate to Flash zip from sdcard using optical tracker, select .zip confirm it and wait until process finish, after that press Reboot system and unplug you Desire
10. Enjoy your new ROM
and it worked, for some reason i couldnt flash the rom using clockwork recovery mode, but this worked a treat..
was really pooping it cause i thought it was game over and welcome to a posh shiney door stop..
Nice one. Glad you got it sorted.
Guys i need help..
I try to instal new rom but from some reason i am on white screen with green HTC..ok ,no problem i have a backup but again from some reason i cant use backup.
What i to do ?
I can go to recovery but i dont have any other rom there.
TNX
Some extra information would be helpful.
So youre experiencing a bootloop? You can run recovery but it wont restore to your nand? What rom were you trying to flash? What procedure did you follow etc.
You could allways just take your sd card out use a card reader or another phone/device and connect to pc, copy rom to sd, enter hboot ... complete wipe and then flash again.
I dont know what is going on but i use card reader and put again new rom rcdmix but i cant instal..i mean i instal rom but when i do reboot its stock on white screen and green HTC.
Anyone?
From begining.
Last couple days i use RCDMIX 14 and after that i try new rom ..newSense DHD baadnwz V0.4c Runs from NAND,.
I use normal procedure and cant flash that rom so i decide to come back on RCDMix from backup.
From then i cant flash or restore nothing.
Did you wipe before flashing a new ROM? If not, do that
If you did you may have to go back to stock and start again
Ok you are trying to go from a data2ext rom to a normal a2sd rom.
1. Back up current sd card
2. Format sd card and the repartition as is advized by Baadnwz
3. Copy back up of sd card back onto card including 0.4c
4. Place card back into phone and enter hboot
5. Wipe everything in recovery (important)
6. Flash rom
This should work, i think the problems you are having is due to how the data2ext modifies the ext partition, so the format and re-partition should solve your problem!
Yep..full wipe.
Very strange ,,,when i put card from other phone my desire works(not rcdmix ,some MUI rom) but when i pull out from Desire and put Desires card its not work.

I'm dealing with a very very weird issue
Recently i flashed ICE beta 6 rom but it was slow and not good enough for daily driver, so I decided to restore latest nand backup from my last sense 2.3 rom
I did as usual. Reboot to recovery. Noticed that sdcard is recognized as 'null' but did not pay attention to it (which seems to be very stupid now)
I wiped all the partition and system and cache and factory reset etc... as usual
Then i chose restore but it said "error can't mount sdcard"
Tried to mount /sdcard but it said error
So i thought, ok we could try powering off and detach/attach the sdcard again
I powered it off, and now i can only enter Fastboot. Everytime when choosing BOOTLOADER, it enters but then i cannot use Vol up + Vol down + power to navigate through options. Have to pull the batt off to turn the whole thing off.
But when i remove the sdcard, the navigation buttons are MAGICALLY working again! But it does not make any sense because i need the sdcard to restore!!!!
So, any one, help me, please!!!
Very appreciated and thank you in advance!
Somebody helps me please!!!!!!!!!! Super urgent
Maybe your sd is messed up. Put the sd in a card reader and read it from pc. If u can, perform a backup. Then format the sd and see if u can enter recovery !
Or try a different sd card of you have one

Yeah +1 on that, backup your sd-card to windows, format it, then try again.. or just try another sd-card

Hang on a sec... mate you're in the wrong forum, go to the Desire HD one.

Isn this usb brick? Try in recovery --- tools ----> usb unbrick
Hi,
I've successfully rooted my HTC one x, and installed TripNRaVeRs CM9 ROM.
I then decided it Erased the SD card to make it clean and free up space, Setting > storage > Erase SD card.
This has not effected the ROM but it is no longer possible to enter ClockWorkMod through recover and I want to go back to my standard ROM.
Is this because I have deleted something important off the SD card?
When I first enter the bootloader mode the HBOOT now reads;
SD Checking...
failed to open usb master mode
failed to open usb master mode
loading HTCUpdateZipName image...
failed to open usb master more
Please plug off USB
if I 'fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img'
it says OKAY and Finished, but when I go into the bootloader and select recovery it just restarts the phone into android.
Have you tried to boot into recovery after the reboot from trying to enter recovery? As far as I know there is nothing important that can be erased by formatting sd card. You should flash the latest cwm recovery, 5.4.0. It's in the development section, sorry can't find it quickly from my phone now. That will allow you to put rom on sd card.
Another method is if you can boot into rom, just use adb to enter recovery.
'adb reboot recovery'.
Edit: Here is the link for the latest recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594819&highlight=recovery
Oh and that Hboot message is quite normal. I also get it and am sure everyone else gets it as well. It is just looking to see if there isn't a update file(That's for different images, which we'll probably use when we have s-off).

Did I loose anything by wiping the SD card?
Whenever I reboot, my phone now says 'Preparing SD card' in the status bar, which it never used to.

obviously you have lost the contents of your SDcard and probably any CWM backups you have made.
will likely have lost any big game data like ShadowGun etc, anything that requires you to download additional game data
and FYI the "preparing SD card" popup on reboot is normal, maybe you have not noticed it before but it is normal
Thanks.
yea, I wanted to clean it from all the '3 mobile' crap that comes installed (including some bad music), I had already saved my CWM recovery to my PC so have a copy of that.
Just wanted to make sure I hadn't lost any important drivers or boot files. But now thats its booting fine into CMW Im happy.
This is my first attempt at rooting so have not seen the preparing SD card on sense.
should be ok, nothing boot related runs from the SD so happy modding
and the prepping SD should be on stock aswell as custom, maybe im mistaken
Hello, first off apologies for being a stupid noob.
Here's a bit of background as to what happened to get my HTC One V stuck on the CyanogenMod startup spinning circle screen.
I unlocked my bootloader, I flashed ClockwordMod Recovery, I performed a backup of my stock rom, then I rooted the phone. All of this worked well to my knowledge.
Then I connected my phone and as per the instructions on this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1996761) and I extracted the boot image from the ZIP (I copied it out, it remained in the folder) and flashed that in fastboot. That seemed to go okay too. It was at this point I realised I forgot to put the zips for CWM10 and Gapps on my SD card....oops. I don't have an SD card reader and I couldn't find a way to access the SD card in the recovery (I tried mounting it from the menu but it didn't seem to do anything).
At this point I figured I really need to get the zips onto the SD card so I can finish the flashing process, but the only way I can get onto the SD card is to connect the phone to my computer, so I rebooted the phone and then became stuck on the HTC One V screen. I don't know the technicalities of it, but I then thought it was something to do with flashing the boot.img and then not following through with the rest, so I thought why not just reflash my stock rom from the backup I had made and start again.
So I went back into recovery, installed my backup from there and hoped it would work, but nope still stuck on the HTC One V booting screen.
Then I hada "brainwave", I'll put the SD Card back into my old phone (HTC Hero), connect to my computer, add the zip files, then put the SD card back into the One V and flash the boot.img again, then flash the CWM10 zips from the SD Card. This all seemed to work again, but no, I'm still stuck on the CyanogenMod circle loading screen.
Sorry for being so clueless, but I figure where I went wrong was forgetting to have the zips at hand for flashing when I needed them, then when I rebooted it without them I just messed something up.
Any help would be very much appreciated, I've managed to brick my Christmas present within an hour of getting it
