Hi I tried to put a new rom on my desire last night but I'm still stuck on the HTC logo I have went into boot loader and wiped everything and restored to factory settings but still. Stuck on HTC logo with white screen anyone any ideas what could be wrong
I got this yesterday where it would hang when I booted up at the white screen with HTC on it.
I went into clockwork, wiped the dalvrik cache, wiped to factory settings, re-formatted my partitions. I then re-flashed my rom etc and all was ok.
Will try re flashing rom but can't do anything with SD card till I'm home from work cheers for reply
No Problem, hope it sorts it for you too.
Still hanging on white screen and put charger in and no charging light unless I pull battery oh the joys of android lol will mess about with it later cheers again
Can you boot into Clockwork?
Have you had your phone connected to PC while booting? How long are you waiting before deciding its hung? Some ROMS do take a while on first boot.
Did you try what I mentioned above?
Cheers
Phones connected to wall and its been on logo since this morning mate so will put new rom on when I finish work it was cm7 I put on so will try Rodriguez tonight
still hanging on logo so will try another rom,hope that sorts it

I installed a new rom that I ended up not liking as much as I thought I would so I restored to the nandroid backup I had previously made. Now when I turn the phone on it gets stuck at the white "htc Incredible" screen. I have pulled the battery and can get into recovery but when I try to turn it on normally it does not work. Anybody know how I can fix this?
Go into recovery, which you say you can do, and try your nandroid restore again. If that fails, it may be a corrupt nandroid. Worst case, wipe clean and flash the previous ROM that you know works and rebuild your apps and data.

Thank you very much. I could not restore to the backup I had made and I never thought to just go back to the rom I had on the SD card. Thank you.
Not trying to threadjack here but I have mostly the same problem so I thought I would just add it here. I was flashed Ruby 2.02 ROM and was just setting things up when my phone rebooted it would not get past the htc incredible splash screen so I read to pull the battery and try to reboot into recovery. When I tried to reboot into recovery my phone just vibrated 3 times then went dead. Did my phone just get bricked or what? ANY help would be awesome!

Can you still get to recovery now? If so, you are probably ok.
I am able to get into recovery but if I try to reboot from there it is still stuck at the splash screen. I think my sd card is not working right now, so I am not able to flash anything. Is my only solution a factory reset?

You need to boot recovery, wipe and flash a known working rom and start completely over. You really need to get a working card.
Well I flashed one and the problem didn't change so I am now flashing an older one of a different ROM that I hope will work.

complete wipe???
Good news!! The second backup I flashed worked! I think I should be okay for now, thanks for the help userjf.
Hi everyone,
I've got a problem. My rooted desire running ReflexTSenseHD v1.8. Last night the battery went dead or so I thought then. Anyway when I got home and I tried to charge it nothing happened. Tried a few things (battery out, battery in) and finally got it charging.
The next morning I tried to boot it and but it hangs on the white HTC screen. Took the battery out, tried it again still the same screen. Took the battery out again and tried it one last time. I booted it in the bootloader and cleared storage. This time it booted, but when it finaly got to the lock screen it said: connect charger but couldn't get it off the lockscreen. Took the battery again and this time it booted normally and worked like nothing happend.
After a few hours I got curious if it would boot normally right away. But unfortunately, the whole thing started over again.
I searched the web, but couldn't find anything like this. The white htc screen freeze is known, but that is usually due to a broken/ faulty bootchip which in my case is not likely because I can boot (sometimes).
I haven't got a clue what to do next but hope any of you do.
Thanks for reading this, and hope that somebody has a solution.

ps sometimes I can boot in recovery but most of the times it will hang on the white htc screen.
Try boot into recovery and wipe the boot, cache, system, data, dalvik cache and do a factory reset too. What on a fresh rom. If you can't be bothered with that, use an ruu which will do a fresh everything, even the bootloader. If things still are messing up, talk to HTC it your carrier.

Thanks somehow I got into recovery and wiped it all, and so far so good
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
unfortunately the issue has returned. So far I figured out that if I wait long enough, it will boot but then hangs onto the lockscreen, show the empty battery and says connect charger. I can't unlock it so the only way of rebooting is to take out the battery and start it again.
I just don't get it. It can't be a faulty bootchip, I suppose it wouldn't boot at all then.
I already tried the steps above from meaple but this time I hadn't so much luck. In booting it again.
I'm getting a little desperate by now so any help would again be appreciated.

ps: I'm on a new rom the RCMixHD v3.6 which at first worked like a charm.
Hi Friends,
I did a lot of searching and tried a bunch of things, but I am not very successful. Can you experts please tell me if my EVO is dead/gone for good?
Symtoms:
My Evo was charging (it was rooted and S-Off), I took the charger cable off, and the phone rebooted.
It went to the White HTC Evo screen that comes before any ROM boots, and basically looped their infinitely.
Since then, the symptoms have switched back and forth from Bootloops on the white screen OR STUCK on the white screen, infinitely.
Currently, I am getting white screen boot loops
Things I have tried:
1. Cleared Storage (via Bootloader/Fastboot)
2. Chose "Recovery" from Bootloader/Fastboot (nothing happens, reboots and stuck on the white screen or loops)
3. Reverted back to S-ON
4. Flashed other Recovery zips
5. Upgraded the Fastboot version
6. Flashed the RUU
Current Situation:
Nothing changed guys... and after the RUU flash (out of which the Radio flash was the only component that FAILED) my PC31IMG.zip files are no longer being promoted for updates in my Fastboot/Bootloader menu.
While the reboots continue on the white screen...
Can't access Recovery
Can't run PC36IMG.zips anymore
Am I done here guys, or is there still anything I can do to save my EVO?
Appreciate ALL your help!
Man I have the same problem execept I'm not rooted or s off if you change the battery and let it sit for awhile off it will turn on but it will reboot in about 5 mintues then get stuck on the sprint 4g screen of the htc screen
Hey theneguy,
Thanks for your response... My phone was rooted, but is now S-On and Unrooted, I believe (I can't tell because I am not able to get in the OS).
I can't get into Recovery and my PC31IMG is not being read now...
Any ideas, friends?

same thing happened to my son, pulled sd card and it would boot fine, found and deleted a corrupt .img file on sd...all is fine
Latest Update guys:
I tried flashing the RUU via HBoot/Flashboot, and the update failed, but the progress bar at the screen was full/successful. The on-screen wizard tried to take me to the "Recovery" steps, nothing was fixed.
The computer wizard was stuck at: Sending Signature....
And the phone had the full progress bar from the previous flash.
So I yanked the battery out, cause I had no options left.
Well, needless to say, now, NOTHING turns on. The phone doesn't charge, and blah, blah, blah.
So guys, can someone give me a verdict... is my EVO done for good?
Thanks for your help.
I can't get in the recovery eather I tryed pulling the sd card out it is still doing the same thang

It should be PC36IMG not 31.

Thanks Mark,
But I don't think it matters anymore... I think with the battery pulled out after a failed RUU.exe installation has truly bricked my phone for good.
It doesn't charge, the battery was good, NOTHING lights up, and I just think it's game over...

I think you're right...
So I have a rooted HTC desire HD with Jellytime on it. All was working great till recently when it would shut down by itself. Today after I wanted to test a new boot screen from Rom toolkit I restarted it and while the boot screen worked great after it finished I see a black screen (backlit so I know its on). I tried going to the bootloader but after I try to go to wipe cache for example it restarts by itself and it gets stuck after the boot screen... Any ideas?
ok an update seems that if I go to the recovery via down button and power it lets me do actions. All this time I went to recovery mode when phone was shut down and plugged into a power source. I did a wipe cache and now it says android is upgrading and now it finished saying starting apps. Hope it didnt get stuck there because it keeps doin the cycle animation but doesn't do anything else.. I ll leave it be for a bit like this... :/ Had to restart it by removing the battery after 20 minutes... same problem as before still...
another update... just before it goes to a black screen when the boot screen finishes an orange light appears just briefly (where the green light appears when it charges)
Wipe everything (system data cache) and install a stock-ish ROM. What happens?

I flashed the rom again and wiped data and all seem to be ok now. I ll update this because I saw many people have similar problems... thanks in advance for any help!
Have the same problem.
I bought this with the problem that it keeps rebooting all the time.
I unlock the bootloader with htcdev,root with Easy Ace Tool,flashed the new cyanogenmod 11,
but did the same .
At least 3-4 rebooting before open normally.
I said that it must be ROM issue and flashed the KK-LegacyCarbon-4.4.
Did the things should be...flash the ROM and then the boo.img separately.
Now i have black screen and the only screen i am able to get is bootloader and the recovery 4EXT.
I reflased cyanogenmod back but nothing happened,any thoughts???
Hi, I have been running JellyTime 4.2 R11 for few weeks now on my S-OFF Desire HD.
Today, I noticed that the light was blinking and battery was low 6%, so I decided to put it into charger, and somehow when I connected it soon I accidently disconnected the charger, and when I put it back, the phone probably crashed or something, since it went black and the white screen with HTC logo appeared and it started to boot again. Now, JellyTime tries to boot, the bootanimation goes fine for sometime but then it gets stuck after "playing" the bootanimation for a while, nothing happens, even if I wait 5 minutes, it's stuck, bootanimation is frozen, no matter do I have the charger connected or not.
So, is there anything I could do, or is reflashing the only solution? I did full wipe when I flashed the ROM.
If you need more information, sure, just ask.
You could try dirty flashing, but if that doesn't work you'll have to reflash.

Thanks for the tip, but it didn't help, gets stuck still on bootanimation.
Time to full wipe and flash it again then. Wipe&FlashTime
Happened to me a few times. I suggest a battery pull before anything else. Seems stupid. But it can work in some cases

I did battery pull several times considering that the phone refused to shutdown even when holding the power button for 10 secs, so battery pull was needed every time.
Anyway, it's now running fine when I reflashed.

I have the same problem since a crash on opening the outlook-email App (JellyTime 4.2 R9).
I found, that the "data" partition causes the trouble when booting. Formating the "data" partition with "4ext recovery" fixes boot-freezing. But this is not an option for me as my last (working) backup is a couple of months ago (yes, I know - should backup more frequently...).
I was able to backup the up-to-date "data" partition (with 4ext recovery) but when restoring it (even on an fully wiped and updated system) boot sequence freezes again.
Any ideas???
Many thanks!
Solved the problem with the data-backup. Instead of restoring complete partition the APP "AppExtractor" works fine for restoring data of the partition backuped.
For now, system runs perfectly.
Conclusion:
If system hangs in Boot-Animation use Recovery for backup of up-to-date system. Full wipe system and install ROM of your choise. After that restore SMS, contacts, etc. with "AppExtractor". Apps should be installed from PlayStore as far as possible. "AppExtractor" allows restoring of app, data+app, data.
