Hi,
I rooted my htc desire but some problems with the wifi were happening, anyhow at the end I installed a custom ROM, which made my desire completly going into black screen.
Then without knowing what I was doing I went into the recovery mode and change some stuff without really knowing.
And now when I turn off and on the phone the only thing that I get is the white screen with the Bootloader version and the options for entering into recovery mode and so on, which I guess my phone has no OS or image.
I have tried to donwload 2.2 firmware and try to install it via the sd card but is not working.
Does anybody here have any idea what can I do.
Thanks in advance
Turn on your phone by pressing the Back button and Power button for 5 seconds.
The bootloader menu appears - Press Recovery and wait until it boots into recovery.
From here on out do whatever - Mount USB storage and put a new ROM on the root of your SDcard. Wipe everything and flash the ROM.
Should work fine.
Thanks s lot for your help. Highly appreciate it

Hello guys,
I need help for upgrading my Defy to the last blur-less rom in 2.2.1.
What I did :
I had the motorola 2.1 stock rom.
I used superonclick to root my defy.
I had a custom recovery installed maybe the one with superoneclick.
I used Rdslite 4.9 with this rom : 3.4.2.-155-2 here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=978792
I flashed my device, it restarded, it booted with the "M" of motorola and the "android" logo and that's it, it doesn't go further.
I tried after that to flash differents .sbf of differents versions but some bricked my phone. I reflashed to the 3.4.2-155-2.
Now I still have the booting sequence until "android" logo. I can boot in "flash mode" 9.10 and I can boot in recovery but only to the trinagle, when I click on the bottom right of the screen it doesn't do nothing. edit : In fact I found an other post that says that we can boot in recovery by pressing up volume and down volume button at the same time.
What can I try now ?
Thanks for your help
edit : It's ok now, I could wipe my date and now it works fine. A lot of stress but it's ok now.
OK I've just recently upgraded my 2.1 to the UK 2.2.
When you go into recovery & you see the android logo the bottom right hand of the screen only works in 2.1 I believe so for 2.2 you need to press the volume up & volume down buttons both at the same time. This will take you to the recovery screen & you then use the volume button to choose the action eg; reboot, clear data etc & then press the power button once to confirm that action.
Hope that helps

Hi i recently rooted my dhd and flashed a custom rom called Leedroid 3.0.2, It flashed successfully and was working great. I used CWR to flash a few tweaks and restarted and it was working fine. As soon as i flashed to change the dialler i got stuck in a loop. The phone keeps restarting at the end of the animation. It doesn't go to any sort of menu at all. I'm sure re-flashing everything would fix it but how can i do that when it's stuck at the animation screen? I've tried holding the power button and volume - button to see if that works but no luck. The phone is also S-OFF.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
You need to take out the battery, and put it back. Then you hold volume down, while pressing power button.
You will then get into recovery, and you can restore or flash Rom from SD.
Good luck

Hi everyone! I own a rooted Nexus S with a custom ICS ROM, so I'm pretty familiar with flashing new ROMs using ClockworkMod in general. My cousin asked me to update her phone because it has become quite laggy. I figured I would take a stab at it, but I've run into a few issues.
First, she bought the phone used about six months ago. The guy she bought it from had already rooted the phone and installed a custom GB rom on it (Android Revolution HD 6.1.5). I can't seem to figure out how to boot the phone into recovery mode. ROM Manager has not been installed, and when I try to boot the phone to recovery mode by pressing the vol down button and the power button, it just boots regularly. Here is some of the other info:
Android version:
2.3.5
HTC Sense version:
3.0
Kernel version:
2.6.35.14-RCMIX3D-ACS-ACE-NCR-[email protected] #9
Baseband version:
12.56.60.25U _26.10.04.03 _M
Build number:
3.06.405.1 CL150597 release-keys
Browser version:
WebKit/533.1
I was going to attempt a full wipe, but I don't want to mess anything up. How would you recommend I proceed? I would like to load CWM onto the phone to make flashing a new ROM as familiar as possible. I was thinking about installing IceColdSandwich 8 AOKP, if that makes a difference. I also might try the most recent version of Android Revolution HD, since that's what she's used to. Whichever is more stable is what I will keep on the phone.
Again, your help is greatly appreciated. Mods, I understand that some of my questions have been answered in other threads, but I would appreciate if you would keep this thread open until I have a solution to my unique situation.
Thanks!
Mike

when the phone is fully booted then choose to reboot in bootloader. From there u can choose recovery. If CWM is not there u can just flash it from command prompt. I would suggest u use 4ext Recovery that is far better than CWM in my opinion.
If the phone is already rooted but laggy maybe u can try to do a data and cache wipe...
^^ I don't have the option to reboot to bootloader, only a full power off. I will try a data and cache wipe, but I've only done it in CWM. I also know nothing about using 4ext, has never been mentioned in the Nexus forum.
How can I do a data and cache wipe without access to the bootloader? Can I just delete specific folders?
1.Power off the device
2.power on the device while holding volume down.
3.from bootloader choose recovery
4.proceed from there

That's the problem, when I power on the device while holding volume down, it just boots normally, not into the bootloader. No idea why this is the case.. I'm wondering if I should just do a factory data reset and go from there?
It sound like your volume button are broken =\
And can you boot into your Rom? and are you rooted?

Hi. If you can't reboot into recovery via pressing the volume and power button. Go to Settings and then Power. Unclick the Fast boot checkbox. Now power down the phone completely. And then press the volume and power button. You should now boot into recovery mode. Please click Thanks if this method works for you.

If You still can't reboot in hboot with volume down, You can do this...enable USB debugging, plug the phone to the PC as charge only and then open a CMD as admin and type adb reboot-bootloader, or better adb reboot recovery. In order to do that You must have the drivers installed. Have in consideration that if You don't have a working volume rocker You won't be Able to choose anything unless You use touch recovery.
try install this

all the information u can get from that page,,,,
The volume buttons do work, I can change the ringer volume no problem. I gave the phone back to her for now, but I will try again in a few days and report back. Thanks for all the help everyone.
Since it has a sense based rom, is fast boot turned off? Maybe the reason with difficulty in booting into boot. Though pulling battery should negate that.
Personally I would install 4ext app and recovery and use that
Heck you could use rom manager to boot you into recovery. Then manually wipe and install.

Avoid using from manager. It doesn't work well on this device. Use the 4ext recovery.

As has been mentioned already, did you pull the battery out and put it back in before trying to boot into recovery?
Also, make sure that she knows or saves her APN info which she uses with her carrier to access the internet. You can use APN Backup & Restore to save it as an xml file to your SD Card. It doesn't work with Ice Cream Sandwich (in case you flash an ICS rom) but you can manually read the saved xml file (on your pc) and enter the info from that.
This makes sure that you can reconnect to the internet according to your original phone and carrier data contract (regardless of what APNs happen to come with the new rom).
If I can't boot into recovery, pulling the battery out first and putting it back in works for me.
Choose a rom and download it to your SD Card beforehand too.
Well, thanks for your help guys, but she turned around and sold the phone for $150 yesterday =P
Appreciate your help! I may be in the HTC forums more often, looking at picking up a One X very soon.
Hello People!
I have a BIG PROBLEM :/ My phone is the E988
After rooting my phone, adding CWM Recovery and try to install a custom ROM (CM) something went wrong. While trying to install by CWM the phone turned off and now it's like if the ROM hasn't been installed completely. Now i think looks like I have parts of two different ROMs (stock and CM). I can't turn on my phone, the OS ins't starting... Only the home button and LG logo is shown blinking.
Anyone have an idea how can I fix it? I can't start the phone to use USB mode or even Recovery mode through HOME + Volume UP + Power button.
I also would like to know if there's a ROM with Portuguese-BR language available. I've trid to istall CM for this reason, but I'd like something close to the Stock ROM
I would appreciate some help.
Thanks.
Check out this thread. Good luck!
