Hi guys,
I just got my replacement g2 after the screen broke on my original. I swapped sds, popped battery in, went into the phone and perm rooted.
Then I flashed clockwork recovery and rebooted into recovery.
Then I restored a nandroid from a week ago...
Now, my phone can boot into bootloader where it says s-off and I can boot into clockwork recovery. However, I am not able to boot into cyanogen mod...
What should I do? I neglected to backup before restoring the nandroid.
ok weird - i installed cm7 and im able to boot - but the nandroid doesn't work?
Wipe everything, and install a diff version of cm7.
What version are you trying to install? I did my moms phone and put 31 on it and it flipped out like your phone is, I put 29 on it and no problems
sent from the rooty tooty fresh and fruity cm7 nighly powered G2

Im really hoping someone can help me.
I rooted the phone.. And I installed the Cyanogen mod. But I screwed it up without adding market. I tried to flash get it back using backup from Nandroid, but all Im getting is a loop with my HTC "quietly Brilliant", Verizon, and Incredible bootscreens..
Help... what do I do??????
Make sure you wipe data and cache before flashing a Rom.

If you did a nandroid backup before installing the cm rom, then just boot into recovery and restore the backup. If you did a nandroid after installing the CM rom then try to reflash the CM rom.
Got it.. thanks.
Had to track button + Power after battery pull, then used Unrevoked Painless Reflash to get back and tried an earlier save from Nandroid.
was scared from a bit there.
i have bigger problems now..... really with my evo... i have clockwork and ra 1.8 installed tryed to add a custom theme phone boot looped did a nandroid... used rom manager to go into clockwork.... theme boot looped again... tried to nandroid forgot to nandroid in clockwork.. dayum now i cant get back to nandroid
problem solved
So got my G2 today, rooted, installed Hboot, started up the phone, logged into all my accounts, got stuff how I wanted. Made a backup via Clockwork.
Then I tried out CM7 Nightlies, decided its pretty good but I wanted to go back to my backup. Loaded into Clockwork hit recover, picked my backup. The phone then just sits on the HTC screen. Never going to the G2 screen or getting back into the OS. I can't get a logcat from it either to see if it is crashing. I can get back into recovery, and flash another rom, but why isn't my backup of my original image working? There are no errors when restoring, I've tried a few times.

If you are using CM7, does this mean you upgraded to one of the CWM3 recoveries? Not sure if this has changed, but backups made with the older CWM2 recoveries are not compatible with CWM3. You will need to reflash back to the older recovery before restoring your backup (pretty sure there are lots of warnings about this in the CWM3/CM7 threads, so you should probably check those out to see if this is no longer the case).
I used CWM3 to make the backup, i assumed that would work to restore it.
EDIT: Okay. so CWM3 can't handle ANY Froyo, regardless of if the backup was made with it. Misunderstood that part. Flashed to CWM32 and it worked. Thanks.
im not sure what i did wrong here...i updated my radio prl pri and wimax but i used the combo...and then i reflashed to a stock rooted rom 4.24.651.1-deodex-20110712-signed and now my phone will not restore or reflash back to MIUI...im not sure at all what to do..i can get in to recovery.. and reflash roms but it just sits on the "HTC EVO 4G" screen. also flashing other roms will not work either.
ok i redid the recovery and nandroid restored and now its just just going back to recover.
i got it to work...used Team Win RECOV (FTW)...thanks anyways..
I installed kings rom with the 3.0 sense. I only put a few app on it and it was working great. I wanted 2 do a backup before I used titanium back up 2 restore the rest of my apps. After i did a back up, it is stuck on the white screen. This is the third time in a row this happened..I did the backup from rom manager which took me into clock recovery. I can still go into recovery put system isn't booting. Any suggestions?? Thanks
Dump ROM Manager and CWM. Get Amon Ra.
Wipe EVERYTHING, except SD Card
Reflash your ROM
Seem the boot may be corrupted; you'll have to wipe everything [cache, data/factory, dalvik cache] then re-flash your rom.
I haven't used clockwork in about a year I've stuck with amon ra and my boot is corrupted I've dumped everything five times and still if I want to flash a mod or anything in recovery I have to reflash my ROM . Any suggestions would be appreciated .
Have you run a RUU on your phone lately?? A few months ago, mine was acting up like that (not as bad) where my recovery got corrupted a few times out of the blue, so I ran the RUU (Without using S-Off tool, btw) and basically started over and all has been fine since.
Also, this may seem silly, but i alwasy flash ROMS from my Stock/Rooted setup, not whatever current ROM I'm using.
What's an ruu?
It's an image of the out-of-the-box stock setup for your phone. It's basically starting from scratch
Thanks..I re flashed and its fine now...
