This is my first post on this forum (figures I'll jump head in when I have a serious issue,ha?)
Ok here goes:
My Issue: HTC Desire is stuck on boot-up screen with Green HTC logo forever.
How it happened: I tried flashing a script using ROM Manager that was supposed to correct some local language settings, over my current rom.
Phone state before action: Worked beautifully using Modaco R8 RC1 ROM. Phone is of course rooted.
Why I can't solve it myself: Well, this is my first serious issue (well, I hope it's not serious, actually!) with phone, which i've had for about a week , so I'm relatively a n00b.
-- I can access Clockworkmod recovery. However, under NANDROID RESTORE there are no files. I have no idea why, because I DID a full nandroid backup before that install. I have a copy of all the IMG files of the last working setup on my windows machine hard drive, and my assumption is that maybe I accidentally moved the files to the hard drive after i did that backup, instead of copying them.
Now -
1) Can I somehow restore the phone to a working state without the nandroid backup, using some other function of the CW Mod recovery?
2) Can I somehow connect the phone via USB to the computer and get it to read the Micro SD card so I could maybe move the IMG files I have back to SD Card (using a mounting option)?
3) Anything else I could try?
If nothing else, please just calm me down if you can and let me know the phone is fixable and not bricked because I can access recovery?! That would at least help me go through the night...
last note: Before I flashed the zip, ROM Manager said my CW Mod version is 2.0.5.7. Within the recovery itself, it says the version is only 2.0.5.1. Don't know why that is , and if it is important.

You could read the SD Card directly with your computer. If you don't already have a microSD/USB reader, they are very cheap and will prove very useful in situations exactly like this one.

You are right! Indeed they are very cheap, but, unfortunately it's going to be a game of patience for me, because it's late evening right now and the shops are closed.
That's why I Was wondering if there's an option to mount SD using HBOOT or Recovery so I could end this ordeal tonight...
Anyway, The fact I could get into CM Recovery means the phone was not permanently damaged, right?
Right, if you can boot into recovery it's a good sign.
I have an N1, not a Desire, but in my CM recovery menu under "partitions menu" there is a "mount USB storage" option. Try that?
Alternately if you own any other phone with a microSD slot that can mount it via USB, it could be your makeshift USB reader.
I have had a similar issue before! What I actually ended up doing was pushing the files using ADB. Its quite easy and I'm sure you can find lots of threads on how to use it. Once the files are pushed to your SD card you can then restore it
FIXED!

Problem solved! And yeah, that's how I ended up doing it.. no micro SD card reader was needed..
I installed HTC Sync for the device drivers... then connected the Desire with the USB cable .. and worked out of the problem using ADB commands..
luckily, the guy whose update I installed that caused the problem has the same ROM as myself, so I installed his framework.jar file , and the machine is fine yet again!
I hate making a new thread and i'm not sure if it's against the rules but there doesn't seem to be a lot of traffic going into Q&A. I'm having a really bad problem with my DInc which could end up costing me $300 if I have to buy a new phone. I was just wondering if you guys would mind taking a look at it and see if you can figure it out.
Thanks.

Fixed! I went out and bought a new class 6 SD card and used berserkers method to go back to stock. Then I just rooted again and installed the ROM I wanted. Thank all of you for your help!
What exactly is the problem?
Glancing thru the thread linked in your question....
If you are having trouble w/ the SD card, see if yours is wonky, then try another if it is wonky....
- With the device on, unmount the existing SD card, power the device down, remove the SD, copy/back it up to your PC, reformat it to FAT32, put it back in the device, d/l a ROM and flash it.
Fwiw - if your question were more detailed and not asking folk to read a thread dating back to 2006, you may get more response - just sayin /;
I think the thread he wanted to post was actually this one:

Ok - Advice remains the same - it sounds like the SD card - unmount, back up, reformat, d/l, then flash something else.
Absent that working, try another SD card.
I'm on a Mac so I cannot reformat the sd card to fat32. I tried with my other SD card already and the phone won't recognize it and my computer doesn't either.
But furthermore, i do not see how the SD card can be the problem. It can install cyanogen just fine. I can't install virtuous or use the PB31IMG.zip though.
Why would it be able to install cyanogen & MIUI and not virtuous or stock?

Its wacked, I dont understand either why most phones will format sd cards as FAT and not FAT32, however it is my understanding that you will need fat thirty two for hboot to properly recognize the file structure as the file name is also case sensitive. For example if the.ZIP is like that it won't work as the file name must be with a lower case extension. Sometimes even on my pc, I have had to rename the file with all capital letters then rename properly for hboot to see it.
You can install ROMs all you want with FAT or FAT32 and clockworkmod recovery as it supports both types of file structures.
And why you could load one rom and not another? I' m not sure, what is the particular version of virth your trying to get running? What versions are you trying for the,... hboot , clockwork mod, & radio? And what is your goal,?, the most recent release of the vRom?

I edited the first post already with the info.
Im sorry, i know this topic has come up a thousand timed but i still have found no solid answer. I am on Wicked rom right now. I went into recovery to flash the new rom but team recovery wont show the zip files on my sd card. After trying some other things and different sd cards in many different sizes and classes,( formated in every ay by phone and computer) now i have noticed nothing including root explorer wont see zip files. sometimes it will show pictures or music but not usually. usually the phone wont even see the card at all. I have heard everything from reformat to the springs that hold the card are worn and need to be bent back to class 10 (which is what I used since i got it) wont work with the s3 to 64 gigs wont work.I should also mention that TWRP wont let me so anything at all. It wont back up rom weather its on internal or external and usually it wont even let me go to external when i try to change it. I don't have enough room on the phone to back up with titanium and TWRP wont t me do a back up either, I am basically stuck on he rom in on with no sd card capabilities. My phone is starting to act up and I really need a new rom ( not that I dont love the Wicked rom) and also get rid of the bugs i'm starting to get. I know this sounds confusing and Im not sure how well I did explaining it but I could really use some help. I have no problem if it would be easier to explain in person if you think you know whats going on or how to fix it you can IM me and I will give you my phone number so we can talk in person. I would really appreciate any help and I will be sure to hit "thanks"
Have you tried a factory reset and see if then the phone can read the sd card?
Try to Odin back to stock rom see if that helps. you should be cable to connect phone to pc using your internal. have you tried using Kies air to see if you can see your card, internal and external

HMMM try another sd card if you can. I had a similar issue and thought that my phone screwed up but it wasnt my phone it was my sd card. if you dont have another sd card try the one that wont work in the computer and see if your computer reads it.

I have tried a 2 gig 4, 8, 26, 32, and 64, brand new ones, ones I have used to phone to try to reformat, also tried windows 7 to reformat and also Ubuntu partition editor. it seems no matter what I do it just wont see an sd card. every great once and a while it will let me see the pics and music but that it, no Titanium, no recoveries, and especially no zip files with roms. it wont even let me create a nandroid and the ones I have it wont let me get to, I feel like im stuck on this rom with no external mem.
OK seems like you may need a warranty exchange if you have insurance. OK On this phone I noticed that new cwm recovery do nandroid backups on the internal memory. So if you can still mount that to the PC. Put your SD card with an attachment to your PC. Move the backup you made from clockworkmod folder to the clockworkmod in internal memory. If you don't have that folder on internal memory. Moved it all. Newest cwm u can restore a back from internal memory. And there you have it. But if it still can't seem to read the SD card. You may need to have another phone or repair that one.

I use TWRP but with them too you can use either the internal or external. The problem is when I try to put a backup on either on it fails every time. Im gonna to have to just use my warranty and get a new one t looks like. Whats going to happen when they see the phone is rooted, Maybe I should just say I lost it because I would still like to keep the phone in case one day I get really bored and tear it apart (im an electronics tech) and see if I can fix it. IDK, if anyone has any advise I appreciate it. And thanks Gypsy
Thats a lot of money for a lost fee. It would be a lot better if you can brick it. They wouldn't know lol I had done warranty exchanged before with a htc phone with s-off and they never said a thing

Hi everyone,
I have a 64gb sandisk microsd external card, in a att galaxy s3 and it appears to be acting very strange.
i can't add or delete anything from it, i put it in my brothers galaxy s2 to format it (my s3 not having the option(which is strange)) and it let me format it, but when it remounts its at the exact same place, with 42.2gb free storage space, which is what it was at before i formatted it, i did it a few times same thing.
if i manually try to delete things from the card through my phone or computer they either hang or they do delete then upon reboot all the files are back. I hope its not corrupted but it sounds like it is. i've used a few apps like sd tools which runs speed tests, and i get about 130mb write speed a second and 5000mb read speed a second which sounds like it should be able to read and write things but unfortunately it just won't
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hmm. You might have to try a double format in TWRP, then when you load up the System use the system's format tool. (i.e. Storage --> Wipe SD Card). If that doesn't work, you might need to find someone with a microsd to USB jig or something of the sort and use a computer to format it.

yeah thanks for the support, tried a number of things in twrp but to no avail. i went out and bought another 64gb microsd card and put it in my phone, works perfectly. but still i'm trying to get the other card working. the new card came with an adapter so i've been trying to format it in my computer. i've used windows format, i do the long one, it gets all the way to the end looks like its complete then says unable to format. and all teh data is still there, i've also tried guiformat by ridgecrop, says success but still all the information is still there.
i don't know if this means the card is corrupt i'd always assumed i'd get corruption error messages.
is there a program i can use to scan the card for errors or corruption?
thanks again dude for the responses any additional help will be very much appreciated still.
again thanks.
solution sorta found
Okay, finally ran out of options and things to search for so broke down and called sandisk techncial suport (didn't think they could help but my mistake)
Read the technician
So I never got the 4.3 OTA BUT I did install the UCUEMJB Bootloader, but not the modem to use the 4.3 Dandroid Rom, about all month before that I was happily on CM11, and loved it. I try Dandroid because I hate Touchwiz so much, but thought this might cure my want to switch ROMs all the time.
I tried to port the Moto X 4.2.2 Rom, and decided to flash it. The phone came on once with the Samsung logo, Went off, and usually it would vibrate and vibrate meaning something is wrong, this time it just went off and didn't vibrate at all.
It is hard bricked from my understanding, but I have no way of getting a JTAG Done, and I'm waiting on a JIG I ordered, but this is becoming too long without a phone. I bought 3 100K Ohm resistors, and tried the method here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=889128 and I can't seem to get it to work.
I tried the USB Debrick img for the JB Bootloader, but that didn't work neither. The battery is good, and works and everything, Just trying to rule out everything so many you can help me a little better.
Does anyone have any idea what to do? I can't afford a Riff box neither.. if I can get it fixed I'll just stick with one Rom this time, lol.
is there any way to JTAG without the Riff Box, or anything I can do? I'm willing to try anything at my power.
Thanks in Advance.

I have been looking at that all morning, so even if I flashed the Moto X Rom that was ported, I shouldn't need JTAG?
Also, let me get this straight.. I use WinDiskImager to put the img file on the SD card, via my SD card reader, and then Pull the battery, put in the SD card, put in the battery, and turn on the phone? because I've tried that and it doesn't work at all for me.. unless I'm missing something here, I'd love to know!
You are using a 16GB or larger card right?
You aren't trying to get the phone to power on just yet. Only trying to get to recovery mode so you can flash stock 4.3 stuff and get going again.
With that said...
It appears it is only about 70 percent successful. I have had reports from folks that said they had to write the .Img file several times in a row in their SD card slot in the computer to get it to work.
You may have to get a debrick file from someone running the same rom you were trying to flash.

Now, the link in the post above me mentions Odin'ing back to 4.1 so you don't have to boot from your SD card anymore. I didn't do that. When mine booted, it booted into Recovery and I flashed my Paranoid Android 4.3 ROM and GApps. That worked fine and all my data was intact, but yeah, it meant That I'd have to boot from SD card every time. To get past that, I plugged my phone in, copied the AT&T .img file from my PC (note, I copied...I didn't image it. When you image it, it pulls files from the .img file and writes a partition containing them. You don't want to do that in this case) to a random internal SD card file folder on my phone. I had to do it that way cause that AT&T .img was too big to fit on my SD card imaged with the debrick boot files. I then I opened my file manager app on my phone and moved the .img file to the /SDCARD folder. From there I used the terminal emulator and followed the instructions from the link I posted first, typing
su
dd if=/sdcard/debrick.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0
Took my SD card out. Restarted. It booted into recovery again, I flashed my PA 4.3 ROM and at that point I was able to boot without the SD card and didn't have to Odin back to an older version. Finally, I used the SD formatter here:
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/
And formatted my SD card back to allow full usage. Copied all my old files and pics back on it and I was straight!

is your SD card bigger than 8GB? That's what I have, and I'll try all of this and report back
My phone doesn't turn on at all, So You mean to copy the IMG file to the SD Card? or the files from the IMG File to the SD card? I am not able to get into any file managers and ADB can't read my phone at all :/
First off, you need a card larger than 8gb. It has to be at least 16gb. Mine was 32gb.
Second, to get it to turn on at all, you need to use the disk imager listed in the thread I posted. WinDiskManager or whatever it's called. Grab the AT&T .img file from the second link (that's the one that worked for me...not sure it will for you) and save it somewhere on your PC. Open the disk imager and choose the AT&T .img file, then use the drop down and select your SD card (whatever letter your PC assigned it) and finally, click "write". That will image the files contained in the .img file to your SD card and partition it as bootable. Put the SD card in your phone, turn it on, and it should turn on to recovery at least. Once we get there, we can tackle moving the .img file to where it needs to be on your phone so you don't have to boot from the SD card anymore.
Yes exactly it is mandatory that your card MUST be 16 gb or bigger. What we are doing is mimicking the internal storage on the phone and tricking the phone into booting into recovery to fix what we messed up. Walmart has fairly cheap SD cards. They're cheaper than $50 to get a jtag and faster too.

Oh okay I get it now. Thanks for the explanation. I'll be on the look out for a 16GB.
Oh okay I get it now. Thanks for the explanation. I'll be on the look out for a 16GB. I found some cheap on Ebay for $10 when I get paid I'll get one! (Living check to check... lol) I also went ahead and bought a jig for $1.89, I'm asking around if any of my friends have an extra 16GB SD, most likely not though. Thanks for the replies!
BTW, My phone is like. Dead. Doesnt even power on or anything, but I do get the QHSUSB DLOAD thing, and if I plug it in without a battery I get a Red LED indicator, is that how you guys have explained previous phone states?
I never had it plugged in without the battery, but yes, when I plugged it into my PC, I got what you're getting. We should be able to get you back in business. Hurry up and get an SD card. Hell, go buy one, use it, then return it.

Dead phone still.. I think I wanna cry lol

In addition this is what I'm getting..
qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 (COM4)
No idea what that means, but it shows up in Device Manager.
I've been trying and trying to flash this img and get it to come on, still not working
Did you image the SD card with this program?:

After you image it, check your SD card in Windows Explorer and verify there are files on it. There should be quite a few.
If you did and the image you tried to flash didn't work, did you try the AT&T image that I linked to in my first post? This one?

The files are on the SD card in a folder called "image".. that doesn't sound good. I browsed for the .img and wrote it to the sd and everything D: I've done this a lot, any idea?

Yes...that's correct. My SD card had numerous files in a folder named "Image", so it seems you're doing that portion correctly.
Did you try the AT&T image that I linked to? That one was named different from the one you referred to in your previous post.
Just to cover your bases, try both AT&T images that were linked to in this thread. If it's still not working...don't know what to tell you.

Yes, I've tried that one, and the one that theramseys uploaded, I just don't know if I'm doing something wrong here.
I stick in the sd card, and try to turn it on? it doesn't power on still.
So stuck here I've done the 3 button combo, and everything. it just wont turn on :/ Any more ideas? Should I just try it with linux? but then again how bad can Windiskimgr actually be?
I miss my phone so much! lol
I dunno, man. I flashed the image I posted, put the SD card in and it turned on. Just pressed the power button.

No tricks to it? I even tried using dd in linux, still nothing. If all fails I hope the jig works that I ordered. I was porting that Moto X rom from a Cyanogenmod 10.1.3 Base, but had swapped out mostly permissions and framework, I didn't touch the boot.img or anything like that.. I did kind of touch up on the updater-script, but still I don't see how that'd brick it, usually it'd give me a status7 or something if it didnt work, or even vibrate, turn on, then vibrate twice and restart, till I'd put it back into recovery, but with that 4.3 Rom I was throwing root issues, and every time I re-flashed it, I had to re isntall CWM
Yeah, just uncovered a new chapter of the story.. lol Hopefully we can work with this at all.
I tried to downgrade to a 4.2.2 Version from 4.3, and had a 4.3 Bootloader,
before all of this I was happily on the CM11 Rom, and should have stuck with it.. Curiosity killed the kitkat.
