Whenever I try to reboot my G2, it returns me to the Clockwork Mod Recovery screen. I have already tried a factory reset and have wiped my cache from the on screen menu on Clockwork Mod, how do I get my phone to boot properly.
I have tried to mount my SD card/system from within Clockwork Mod but my computer can't detect it.
And when i try to install zips from sdcard, it says no files detected.
have you flashed a rom ? if you factory reset/data you wiped the rom as well
broken SD card? broken ROM?
my roms got wiped and my SD card has been working fine since the rebooting problem started.
flash a new ROM
Related
Hello there
I was about to flash a new Rom and before doing that I partitioned with Rom Manager the SD.
I also formatted the SD Card with Rom Manager.
From that moment on I was not able to restart into recovery mod any longer from Rom Manager.
I then decided to restart in bootloader to do a full wipe to factory reset.
From that moment on when I try to start the phone, I get stuch to the HTC Logo/Custom image logo and it keeps on booting over and over again.
I simply cannot access the phone. What can I do to fix that?
Thanks in advance
Update
I removed the battery for some time ( 30 mins) and was then able to reboot in bootloader. ( Power + back )
I headed to recovery but I am now stuck again with the phone and the red triangle...
I then use power+vol. + and get to system recovery but I just have:
-Reboot system now
- apply sdcard update.zip
- Wipe data/factory
- Wipe cache...
and nothing seems to work...
Any Idea?
Surely this is just because you wiped your memory card?
Yes I did. I am not 100% sure as I panicked a little bit probably and now I do not remember correctly but it was suggested a full wipe so I did it.
How can I now sort it out?
Did you copy the stuff from your sd card before you wiped?
Yes I did a nan back up and copied it all
Have you copied it all back? Just go to apply sdcard update.zip and the clockworkmod recovery shoud be there.
I could not copy it all back because after I started the whole process I could not access the phone anymore and even now, if I plug it to the PC it does not get recognized by it
okay download this:

Put it on your sdcard. Then go to the recovery menu you were on and click apply sdcard update.zip and you have the old clockworkmod recovery. If you also put a rom on the sd card you will be able to flash it over and will get a new rom. That should fix the problem!
Ehi Taylor I tried what you suggested and it worked!
Thanks so much for your help, I really appreciate it!
I was messing with a file cleaning app, an invasive one apparently, and after downloading the latest version of clean rom, I went into CWM to flash it. After doing the usual wiping, data, cache, etc, when I went to "choose zip from sd card" CWM told me it can't mount the external sd card so I had no access to the new rom I needed to flash and when I tried to reboot the phone got stuck at the boot logo. I had to boot back into CWM and restore a nandroid backup I had but even now when I boot back into CWM it is telling me that I still can't mount the ext sd card. Anyone have any idea what I may have done or how to fix it?
***EDIT*** I think I may have it figured out. I reflashed Clockworkmod and it seems to be working fine now.

Owing to circs I wasnt able to start repartioning and installing ROM until today. I followed the instructions to back up the SD card and then partitioned the SD card as follows:
tools/
partition sdcard/
remove all partitions and start from scratch/
chose "1024"
This completed okay.
I then did
wipe/format/
format all partitions except sdcard
install from sdcard/
choose zip from sdcard/
then selected the rom to flash it.
The Rom I chose was Android Revolution SD which said it had installed but when I rebooted from Recovery all I could get was Recovery no matter what reboot option I chose. So I went back to wipe/format and reformated all partitions except sdcard and tried the ROM suggested in previous threat to OP but it refused to install. So repeat with Oxygen and various other ROMs all of which aborted without completing.
In addition 4EXT started rebooting continuously in Recovery. When I run Recovery I get a message that says it hasn't been configured but don't know if that is a problem or not. I take the battery out and power up with sound down, which brings up Fast Boot and then I go back into Recovery and try again. So far no ROM (other than Android Revolution SD) has even pretended to install.
Any ideas? Please?
Managed to install MildWild and will take it from there.
have you tried to wipe the devlik cache ? or do a full wipe ,
Hello Everyone,
As the title says I have successfully wiped my phone and all of my backups =) ..
In ClockworkMod recovery v6.0.4.3 I originally installed

There was a weird rectangular red box that kept popping up and I was trying to re install the RR mod with the fix.
Welp I..
Wipe data/Factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Wipe Delvic cache
Format /data
annnd.. Format /data and /data/media pretty much wiping my backups and roms on my phone.
My phone now hangs at the att Logo.
Things I have tried:
Flashing roms and kernels using odin.
sideloading using clockwork: (My PC does not recognize the device to sideload) I am assuming because there is no rom? ..because i wiped it. =(
Is there any way to access the filesystem on my phone from my pc with clockwork recovery to add roms/ kernels to install? While installing the majedtic kernel or the Res rom mod did i put my phone in an irreversible state? Can I get into a stock rom or custom rom? ( any will do at this point) Any other suggestions?
Current state:
I can get to the download mode. I can get to the Clockwork recovery screen. I cannot connect via sideload. I hang at the attt screen.
Thanks for the halp!
In download mode, you can install Philz Touch custom recovery via Odin.
Copy a ROM to an SD card. After flashing Philz, boot into recovery and install the ROM from the SD card.
Hi guys
I was using Philz Touch Recovery in order to install ViperOne ROM (chose the install a new ROM instead of just wipe data option). I successfully did that but the phone took forever and still didn't boot in the ROM, it was just stuck at the HTC splash screen forever.
I decided to go back and flash TWRP instead and then wipe the device but then I realized that the SD card was NOT mounting. I went back to Philz Touch Recovery, same thing. Now I am stuck without a ROM, and with a SD card that will NOT mount in recovery.
I tried sideloading the ROM via ADB and it reached about 50% then gave me a "fail: protocol error" or something like that.
I really don't know what to do.
Right now I am attempting to copy the ROM to my external SD card, insert it into the device and try to install it from recovery, but I am not sure if that's even going to work.
Please help me guys! I My device is S-OFF (which I just achieved today and it was a PAIN IN THE *SS) and of course bootloader unlocked and with superCID 11111111. Would running a .401 RUU help? I cannot find one though.
I tried installing the ROM from external SD card and it failed. I don't know what to do! please help
EDIT: I think I fixed the problem. I believe the SD card was formatted poorly thanks to Philz Touch Recovery (CWM Advanced Edition) and formatting it using TWRP fixed it. It now shows up in recovery and is mountable.
