Hello everyone this is my first post and thread so please bear with me.I have a big problem i need some help with.I rooted my desire about 8 months ago with unrevoked and everything went great i was using defrost then moved to gingervillainn .i tried to update to 1.6 through villain app as normal but for some reason clockworkmod has stopped working i just get a blank screen then when i press the power button it says clockworkmod recovery v2.5.0.1 in white text i then have to pull the battery to reboot the phone.I have tried to use it manualy by turning it on with the power and volume buttons held and selecting recovery but i get the same result.Same thing with rom manager.iv used rom manager to try and upgrade clockwork mod it says its succesfull but its still not working.my phone has became very buggy and i cant flash any roms or restore a nandroid backup.Any help would be very appreciated also when i press the supper user app it force closes is it possible that my phone has become unrooted somehow please help as the phone is almost unusable

still no luck fixing clockworkmod
hello everyone iv also tried rooting the phone again with unrevoked 3 its says the root is running but i still cant use clockwork mod.I was going to try and unroot the phone from the guide in this forum but htc sync doesnt recognise my phone because im not running a htc rom i guess.i really have ran out off ideas on what to do.Has anybody here had the same problem and managed to fix it?Any ideas would be great.iv got super user permissions back so i know the phones still rooted.can anybody out there help?!!!!!

Try an RUU flash, you will lose root etc but it might get it working again

[Q] Desire Z Rooted or not?

i have purchased a 2nd hand desire z from someone, i noticed it has clockwork and rom manager installed, i think it also has super user rights. I also noticed that the rom is Virtuous 1.0.1. Thinking this meant that the phone was already rooted, i used rom manager to download and install CM7, however it caused the phone to be semi bricked, then i also realised that the phone was also S-ON.
Fortunately i managed to reboot the phone into CWM and restored the previous image, so now the question is, what is wrong?
PS. new to this whole android thingy..

hmmm... sounds like MAYBE you had a temp root?? Is you had superuser you definitely had some form of root, however, i am not sure you can flash a new rom if you dont have S-off (but i could be TOTALLY wrong here)
I have an Evo (and dont have this temp root issue), but i am helping a friend with a similar problem with his G2.
Can you get into recovery? (while phone is off, hold the volume down and power on the phone) If you can, do you have Clockwork recovery or stock android (says 3e at the top i think)?? If you have CW, just enable USB, download a CM7 through your computer, put it on your SD and flash it. SHould be good to go.
If you have stock recovery and S-on.. WELCOME TO MY BOAT... I am trying to find a solution to this for my friends phone. If i figure it out, i can let you know (please do the same??)

I am having the same problem, with the same rom. I can use all root apps, but it says S is ON? I can't put any other rom on my phone with out it going into boot loop or just staying on, HTC screen. Some one please help us, I know there are many phone guru's on this site. Any help would be over the top. O-yeah and I can not get the wifi to connect either says error or turns it self off after scanning? Please please please help. Thank you in advance.

[Q] G2 flashing orange and green led lights,won't turn on.

my phone(tmo g2,rooted running extrahotsauce rom) is flashing the green and orange lights now that its charging...the battery was fine and i was doing a backup using clockword mod recovery and once that occured i rebooted,then rebooted again into recovery and from then on the phone hasn't turned back on. i put it on charge at first and no light,left it on for a bit and now there's green and orange led lights blinking continuosly,any one know the cause? and more important, the solution? any help would be much appreciated, thanks
someone posted in the evo 4g forums saying the phone was overheating? doubt that was the issue. but now that it isn't working,i am hoping it is

Turned on but kept shutting down on its own,somehow got it into clockwork mod recovery,wiped data and cache(after backing it up), wanted to install the mexdroid rom and the phone shut off again at the end of the wipe,now it just turns on at the htc screen.
when i hold volume+power and get to the boot screen,it wont let me scroll up and down using volume,instead it automatically just tries to update.
stuck at htc screen,just wanna try to restore my phone,any help would be great. thanks and sorry for being such a damn noob

Do you have a pc10img on your sd card? If so, you need to get that off of there to get into recovery. Also, it sounds like something is seriously wrong with the battery and you should replace it.

found it,its a zip file right? it wont let me delete it though,is there a certain way to do it?
i have a spare battery,just cant seem to locate it at the moment, might need to buy one if i can't find it soon
nvmm figured it out,lets try it

OMG you are the greatest,its working so far...do i need to put the pc10img back on the sd card in order to install a rom or no?well it wouldn't get to the recovery screen with it on the sd card,sorry i need to get some sleep
NVM,i left pc10img off of the sd card installed the rom,but it wouldn't start,just stayed at the htc screen. I put that file back on the sdcard and it's still just stuck at the white htc screen, know what the issue might be? i have a custom boot animation in there,would that matter?

when i get to the boot screen,it says, s-on at the top,is that why?

If you're s-on then you're not rooted or at least truly rooted, like if you did a temp root with visionary. I would suggest finding the tmo post ota ROM in the development section dated from December, it'll be a PC10IMG, and rooting that with gfree from the wiki. When you have done all that, install ROM Manager from the Market. When you open the app click "Flash Recovery"and you'll be ableto install ROM's from ClockworkMod recovery.
I apologize if you already know some of this stuff, but you sound a bit confused. Hope this helps.

no need to apologize,you're only helping. i told my friend about the issue, and he reccomended a thread on xda that explains how to turn s-off(and root/unroot). it had been rooted, but yeah like you said it was temp rooted using visionary. ill try these methods and post results. thanks alot

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=890827&highlight=[Guide]+How+to+Root
so that's the link he sent to me, i was skeptical but still went through with it and yet it still says s-on...i need a guide to show me how to fix just that.
i've never used gfree or wiki,nor do i know how or what of them. is there a thread you can direct me to? ill look for it myself but i think if you were to find it,you'd be able to direct me to the right one since im sure there are multiple threads and you seem to know what's happening and what you're doing

ok so i've tried 5 different methods and nothing seems to result with s-off for me. do i need to unroot and reroot?

i know this thread is old but i just got a referb g2 for my wife and it had this same problem. i found this somewhere else and it actually worked:
try taking out the battery and unplug the charger. then press and hold the power button for roughly a min. Then put the battery back in and press the power button. It should work. it worked for me.
i had tried holding the power button for almost a minute with the battery still in with no luck. doing it this way with the battery out worked though.

little help please!

Hello all,
First of all I would like to mention that I did try and research my problem as much as possible and after 4 hours I thought it might be a good idea to ask for help. I am also not one to post if I can help it (look at my post count). With that being said..... "HELP!!!!"
After rooting my galaxy nexus my brother decided he would like to unlock and root his dinc2. He pretty much rushed through the process and now we're stumped. He was successful in unlocking his phone (I think) and flashing CWM but I think what happened is that he did not extract the boot image into his root folder. Now the phone will only boot into Revolutionary CWM screen or the white HBOOT screen.
It doesn't seem to matter what I do (recovery, reset, flash the RUU zip, etc) it will just go back to those screens. The computer will no longer recognize the phone so I cannot extract the boot img to the root folder from my computer and my nexus does not have a sd card slot, nor do I have a sd card reader/adaptor with me. so I can't just plug the sd card into my computer. I am thinking that is what I am going to have to do.
If I try fastboot it says there is no image
If I flash the RUU_Vivo_W_Gingerbread_S_VERIZON_WWE_2.18.60 it aborts
I can flash super user successfully but that doesn't help.
so, what do I do? any ideas? I appreciate any help and I do apologize if this has been covered but I honestly did search and couldn't find much on this particular problem.

Nevermind. We took the phone back and exchanged it. Thanks for all the help.

[Q] Desperate need for help with rooting/custom rom

Hi everyone!
I'm in desparate need for help . I don't know what is wrong .
I'm using htc desire z. I 've followed the guide of cyanogenmod to downgrade from gingerbread to froyo which worked out fine .
I then tried to root it with visionaryplus which didn't work, therefore i removed it and even made a factory reset.
I decided to follow the guide again from cyanogenmod for rooting the phone (can't post the link because i'm newbie)
I've done every step with success, and in reboot i can see S-OFF. But the only options i have are hboot, fastboot, and reboot options. BUT i can't choose anyone of them. The buttons volume down/up won't work and it just start checking the zip file and asks me to update again and again.
Therefore i can't unlock bootloader. I have tried everything , even a tool easyunlock but nothing works because i can't get into fastboot. Also there isn't a recovery option. I'm desperate because i can't even update back to gingerbread. The version supplied by cyanogenmod is asia region(probably because there language Thailand,Pakistan etc) whereas the last rom i have the stock one was european and i'm stack with it. I have tried upgrading it from the official htc site numerous time i always get an error about the model.
I also get connection problems with android market, i get the message "no connection".
Please if someone can help me i would be most grateful. I just need a functional phone at this time so if a custom rom isn't possible if someone could help me get back to the stock gingerbread i would appreciate it because at this point i'm out of ideas. I'm angry with myself because i can't figure out what i did wrong. The command prompt gave me only success messages. Something is wrong with the bootloader i suppose.
Thanks a lot everyone and sorry for the long speech

Take the PC10IMG.zip off your SD card, use fastboot to flash a new recovery if needed. Lots more info about your phone and how to root properly etc here

Thanks for the response.
The problem is that I can't select any of the options . It just boots into hboot without letting me choose the options. Pressing volume down or up doesn't do anything

Try booting to bootloader without SD card in phone
