boot loop after CM6.1 install - can access recovery

Hi peps!
My Desire is stuck within a boot loop (CM6.1 RC1 logo shows up again and again!)
This morning I flashed CM6.1 RC1 with rom manager! I noticed that i flahes it without GApps so I flashed again and now I got this anoying boot loop!
I think that its because of my old radio but strange thing is that it worked before and without the GApps!
in the bootloader screen it says
Radio:4.05.00.11
and when I enter recovery it starts "Android system recovery (2e)" and I cant install a new radio because it says the file isnt certificated!
Whats the best and simplest way to get clockwork mod (I KNOW that I had installed it once on my phone but now it doesnt seem so -.-) or a newer radio onto my phone?
Are there other older roms which will boot/flash with my recovery?
plz help

okay I solved it! The tricky part was, that I had no nandroid backup (anymore) and surprisingly no longer access to clockwork.
I downloaded fake-flash from modaco.com. This packs clockwork into a signed update.zip which can be launched from within the normal racovery.
You can grab it here:

no I reflashed my radio, CM6.1 RC1 and then the gapps!
everything works now

Bootloop
Hey man,
Im getting similar problems when i wiped and installed CM 6.1.
The cm mod logo just reappears, and nothing further happens.
When i press power and volume down, and choose recovery, i just get this exclamation mark with a triangle around the mark over a desire.
Anyone got a suggestion to what i can do? the led seems to work fine.
Any help would be appriciated.
cheers

I HAD to put my sdcard in card reader delete any update.zip that might be on the root of card .Then downloaded opendesire rom from PC.Renamed it to update.zip and put on root sdcard and inserted back in phone.turn phone on while holding back button choose recovery wait for reboot.Then when red triangle appears hold vol up and press power button then release both wait till you see option to apply udate.zip from sdcard use volume buttons to select option then press power wait for new rom to install.That wipe before install was not a good idea think I will use this method to install all roms from now on.

help i downloaded the fake flash and renamed it as update and when i apply in the android system recovery it verifies and loads the bar halfway and stops
it says E:failed to verify whole-file signature E:signature verification failed installation aborted
why doesn't the fake flash by koush work
HELP
IM STUCK IN BOOTLOOP after trying to apply stock OTA update and i lost root and erased everything
HELP PLEASE

HTC desire boot looping (stuck in CWM)

Hello all...I've done alot of searching and I am stuck...
Here is a little information.
I rooted my phone with Unrevoked so I have the clockworkmod recovery flashed.
I booted into recovery and made a backup of my ROM right after I was done rooting.
I then installed CM 6.0.2 stable using ROM manager. This was successful. I used this for a few days and then decided to upgrade to CM 6.1 RC2.
I downloaded the ROM via ROM manager and I selected to wipe data/cache from the ROM manager prompt.
Phone rebooted and flash appeared to be successful. Now I'm stuck at the CM booting screen looping.
I restarted and went into recovery to try to restore my original back up (update.zip on my SD card)
I then get the following error in CMW:
ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.7
E:Error in CACHE:recovery/log
(No space left on device)
I then booted again and did a clear user data. I went into recovery mode and the error is gone but now Clockworkmod does not seem to be doing anything. All the menu options just take me to a blank screen and pressing the power button just takes me back to the menu.

stuck on white htc evo 4g screen

ok so i tried to update the radio wiimax and prl cause i wanted to update to myns rom something went wrong and now im stuck at the white evo 4g screen i did make a back up and tried to recover but its still stuck someone hellp please ..

any help would be great cant imagin being wihout my evo =[

it also says wrong image when i boot in2 hboot or recovery im a noob at this so if anyone can get back o me id be willing to give any info needed to fix this

also when going into nandroid to restore it says
"sd-ext.img not found skipping restore of /sd-ext."

I had a similar issue when I first flashed a ROM. What version of what recovery are you using? Is it clockworkmod or RA? You will probably need to flash a new PC36IMG.zip file to get it back up and running. I used the unrooted version found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=829045
Then I re-rooted with unrevoked, and proceeded to reflash the ROM. If you are using clockworkmod, you need to change to RA, and if you are using an older version of RA you need to update. Let me know what you're using, and I'll try to help.

yes im using clockworkmod and how can i sync my phone with my comp to flash the pc36img.zip .?

You'll have to do it while in recovery. Pull the battery on the phone, and put it back in. Hold donw the volume down button on the side while you hold down the power button. This will boot the phone into the bootloader. After a few seconds it will scan for some files, just ignore that. Once it scans, you can move your sleection by using the volume down button. Move your selection to recovery, and push the power button to select it. Then you'll see the recovery screen come up. In one of the menus there is a selection for mass storage, or something like that. When you toggle that on, you can use your phone like a disk drive, and just drop the PC36IMG.zip file in the folder.

ok fter i do that what should i do
again thank you so much for your help

in clockwork recovery you will have
-reboot system now
-apply sdcard:update.zip
-wipe data/ factory reset
-wipe cache partition
-install zip from sdcard
-nandroid
-partition menu
- advanced
**You want to select partition menu**
Partition menu gives you thes options:
mount/data
unmount/ cache
mount/ sdcard
format system'format data
format cache
format boot
mount USB storage
**Now plug your phone into your computer and select mount USB Storage**

ok so in the exact order after i put the file on my sd card

In order to install the update, follow the steps below. This will erase everything you had stored in your phone, and set it back to how it was when you got it from the factory. Once you drop the new PC36IMG.zip file onto the phone, shut the phone off. If there's no menu option, then pull the battery. Then power the phone into bootloader again. It should scan for the same files, and this time find the one you put in there. When this happens a blue bar will show up on the right side. When the bar finishes, it will ask if you want to update with the new file. Say yes, and let it finish. It will probably restart once during the update, so don't freak. When it's all done it will ask if you want to reboot. Say yes. Now it will be back to stock. If you want to try to flash again, re-root using enrevoked. When that's done, isntall ROM Manager from the market. When that's installed, open it. At the bottom of the screen should be a selection for flash an alternate recovery (Amon RA), if it's higher than version 1.8, then install it and you're good to go. Clockworkmod has a lot of issues.

Did it work out for you?

yes thank you so much I got my phone up and running

[Q] Stuck on bootscreen

Hey, My phone was working fine till yesterday. N when i tried to flash dk froyo .i had to change the kernel and i guess the bootscreen(htc logo) freezed because of that. I tried flashing hcdr and other kernels and even changed rom back to cm 7.But nothing seems to help.Only cwm is working on my phone. CAn someone help me please

btw its a wildfire

Your best bet Is to try run a ruu as that would reset the phone back to stock, bootloader and kernal, but depending on how you s-offed you may lose the ability to root.( untill you s-off again.) Good luck
sent from my steroid powered, cyanogenmod filled wrecking machine! using xda app.

Perform a full wipe (In CWM, Select "Data Wipe / Factory Reset", then, staying in CWM, go to Mounts and Storage, Select "Format /system". After this, flash a ROM (any) and check if it boots.

Tried. Its still not working. Can any1 post a nandroid backup file of any rom for wildfire. Please. I formatted my sd card too by mistake.

and while flashing a ruu. it always shows a error E:Failure at line 65 and something. Its different everytime

Connect your Wildfire to your PC, In CWM, Go to Mounts and Storage, and Select "Mount USB Storage". This will activate Mass Storage Mode and you can access your SDCard on your PC as normal. (I don't think anyone would upload a Nandroid backup of his own, it contains personal stuff like contacts and all. But, if someone does, good for you)

i mount usb storage n then do wat..? i tried flashing every rom possible. But its still not working. Is it the kernel's problem or what??

I am pretty certain performing a full wipe (Following options in CWM - 1: Data Wipe - Factory Reset, along with 2: Wipe Cache Partition, 3: Format /cache, 4: Format /system, 5: Format /data, 6: Wipe cache partition, 7: Wipe Dalvik Cache) in CWM and flashing a fresh ROM will fix your issue, UNLESS your phone is not bricked due to bad flash, but since you already claim that you have done that, I can't help you any further on this.
EDIT - Also one more thing - When you flash the kernel / ROM, do you get a confirmation message "Installation Complete"? What is your CWM version?

Yes i do.it says installation comple and its v3.0.0.6

Sense ROM's like DK will not work on CWM versions above 2.x.x.x. Anyway, since you tried CM7 already, One last suggestion in that case would be to try flashing the RUU via the bootloader.
Steps -
1: Download the RUU you want to install
2: Extract the rom.zip from the RUU. Procedure here
3: Once you have that rom.zip, Rename it to PC49IMG.zip
4: Transfer this to the root of your SDCard (i.e. - Not in any folders / sub-folders)
5: Restart device in HBoot Mode (Press Vol Down + Power simultaneously)
6: It will scan for the file, and ask to install. Follow On-Screen instructions.

Ill give it a try.

owe you big time man..Thanx a lot..

[Q] Having trouble flashing the radio on CM7

Hi,
I recently installed CM7 on my phone. I want to flash the radio, and I've looked over the entire forum.
It says reboot into recovery, and update from zip on sd card.
The problem I am having, is that it doesnt say this.
I reboot into recovery, get the red triangle, get passed it by pressing up and power. And then get to the menu that says
Android system recovery <2e>
Reboot system now
Apply sdcard:update.zip
Wipe data
Wipe Cache.
I tried renaming this file: signed_Froyo_Slide_Radio.zip as update, but that doesnt work either.
Am I supposed to wipe the data and cache first?
I've also tried rebooting into recovery from clockwork and that fails as well.
What am I doing wrong?
Is there a tutorial I can find that will help? The oddest thing is I thought rooting/installing cm7 would have been hard, but that turned out to be easier than what I thought would be the easiet thing of the bunch to do.
Any help will be appreciated, i have looked all over, but I'm sorry if this was answered already.

going off my bare knowledge of the MT3GS that i help my sister do..
i thought the steps was..
1)reboot into "recovery"
2)red triangle screen
3)press VOL+ and POWER to get to the "temp recovery menu"
4)Apply sdcard:update.zip
5)should boot into a CWM recovery
((i thought it was CWM recovery that was the update.zip file in your SD card..))
it is in this CWM recovery where you select to flash the zip'ed radio.
***
i could be wrong and if i am hopefully someone can correct me/ point me and the OP in the right direction to flash radio as i want to do this for my sister's MT3GS soon as well.

I just tried that. Unfortunately, all it did was install the update.zip and then ask to reboot the phone.
Thank you for your help though.

The process is very similar to what jt.one described but first you need to obtain a update.zip version of CWM recovery. You should be able to get one through Rom Manager (found on Google Play). Once in CWM you should have an option for exploring your SD Card and flashing your ZIP file of choice

Finally got it to work, so here is what I did in case anyone wants a heads up.
First thing I did was format the sd card (i have a special card for doing crap like this)
Put the espimg.zip, and the radio zip on the sd.
I went into Rom Manager on my phone, i hit <Flash Clockworkmod Recovery>
and then <Reboot into Recovery>.
It then for some odd reason, finally gave me the correct menu to install zip from sd.
This time, the process was also different. Instead of selecting things with the power button, I had to select things with the middle button. (hitting the power button just turned off the screen)
So after going through the menu's and finding the update, I installed it, which took literally seconds.
Now everything is up and running. I am by no means any type of specialist or even remotely knowledgeable other than after I get some hands on experience, but if anyone else is having problems, maybe I can try to help you, since I had such a hard time.
Thanks again to jt.one and WhoWhere for their help and support.
