HELP: Desire stuck on splash, cant flash roms - Desire General

Today, i did a full wipe and tried to flash the Leedroid 3.03 rom.
But it was stuck on the splash screen for over 20 mins so i decided to forget it and go back to Eddy's Rom. But i have tried that rom, neo's new rom and a modaco rom but all get stuck at splash screen.
Can somepne please help me?

I have tried to flash the modaco and teppic stock 2.2 rom and get the following error;
E: Cant chown/mod /system/xbin
(no such file or directory)
E:Failure at line 66
set_perm_recursive 0 2000 0755 0755 SYSTEM:Xbin

The only rom that works is redux, seems very strange.
Anyone know what the problem is?

Anyone??
Is there anyway to find out what the phone is doing when stuck on the splash screen?
thanks

i think ur havin issus with the clockworkmod recovery i would recommand using a fake flash
very easy to do download wat ive uploaded and then go into recovery and select
alpharev cwm recovery == apply sdcard update zip will install a tempory cwm recovery then flash ur rom
clockworkmod recovery === apply update from sdcard will install a tempory cwm recovery then flash ur rom
plus depending on the rom ur tryin to install u may need to change the hboot
use alpharev web site to get the hboot http://alpharev.nl/
and use this utility to flash new hboot must be in fastboot to work

Thanks, but im currently using AmonRA if that makes a difference.
Do i still need to do this procedure?

How do you normally flash your rom? Rebooting and entering recovery via vol down and power on??
If so then download ROM Manager from the market and try using that to flash a ROM.
If that fails then try updating your recovery image via fastboot and flash a different recovery version.
Have you S-off'd and flashed a custom hboot?

no this sudnt make a difference buddy just try and apply the update zip so that u can flash the rom as some rom require a upto date recovery i use the stock recovery and also use a update zip to install rom that require a lastest recovery

Thanks, so just to double check.
Flash the update.zip that you have uploaded and then flash the rom straight after?
Also i get the following error when i do ADb shell whilst the phone is on the splash screen,
link_image[1995]: failed to link /system/bin/sh
CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE
I have tried using ROM manager but same problem.

Hi,

Thanks! But i can't update i think, because my computer doesn't see the oneX..
It doesnt come in android anymore.
Can you goto your bootloader?
Go to bootloader, flash latest test recovery, then you're sorted.

But how can i flash te recovery when i canĀ“t acces te SDcard?:$
U don't need to worry about that. Only your cwm recovery isn't detecting ur sd partition. I doesn't matter, Just goto bootloader, connect to your pc and flash the latest recovery using 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' cmd
I hope you are aware of this.

Did you verify ms5 on recovery image and verify you are flashing correct one? You may also want to try a different cable.

You can always return to stock. Check CS's thread in dev section. Then you need to adb flash custom recovery & superuser, and you should be good.

Then, if you don't have adb & drivers, you need the download from this thread:

From here all you need to do is adb push custom recovery & superuser. Don't downgrade via revolutionary.

what status of your phone bootloader...?
maybe you can try flashing another custom recovery like 4EXT or TWRP
download recovery.img 4EXT or TWRP
place recovery.img file in sdk/ adb folder on your computer
and flashing through FASTBOOT .. with command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
already have 4EXT or TWRP..then you can try wipe/ factory reset before installing rom again...
don't forget to flashing manually boot.img too after installing any custom rom if your bootloader status unlocked but still S-ON..
what du you mean status of your phone bootloader? I have unlocked bootloadern via HTCdev. Thats what you mean?
Havent still figured out if its S-ON. Dont not yet know what Son/off means. Will google it

yap..that's what i mean...
you can see the status of your bootloader when you're turn on your phone with hold volume down + power button then the phone will show up bootloader like locked or unlocked, s-on or s-off, hboot version, radio version, fastboot, recovery etc..
because of your phone unlocked via htcdev unlock..it seems the bootloader is still s-on..
so like what say before about your problem is...maybe you can try flashing another custom recovery like 4EXT recovery tuch or TWRP..choice one
after you have installing new recovery..then you can installing any custom rom but don't forget that you must always flashing manually boot.img too after every installing any custom rom before reboot the rom for the first time...
hopefully this can help..
jizzz... it dosnt seem like i ever gonna get this to work. I did flash the custom recovery 4ext and the cmd-line on the pc did say flash sucsess... But when i tried recovery i just got an white screen with htc-logo. Had to pull out the batteri to boot the mobile up again..
Edit: I got the TWPR working
Now i got installed the custom rom and everething is workin flawlessly (only memory shows 592, shouldnt it be 768?). THX alot for your help

[Q] Bricked HTC One need help please

So tonight around 6pm EST I noticed that there was a Cyanogen mod nightly for my wife's Verizon htc one. I also noticed that there was an update function so I decided to give it a try. However, I didn't realize I had yet to make a backup of her current ROM. I thought I had done this when I originally rooted the phone... HUGE MISTAKE NUMBER 1. Once the update was flashed it gave me an error and began boot looping. I tried to find the original version of Cyanogen but could not locate it on the device. Since the HTC One doesn't have an SD card and I Don't have the special OTG USB I couldn't get the storage to mount to add a new ROM. After 2 hours of searching I was finally able to Push a ROM to her device but I kept getting an E: Error executing updater binary... <--- this error I researched only to find that I couldn't flash the rom I was trying to lash in the latest TWRP recovery.
ALL I want to do now is to flash a new recovery to the phone so I can install a ROM and get this paperweight working again.
Can someone please explain to me STEP by STEP what to do here?

It depends on what you are trying to do. You said you wanted to flash a new recovery, so go ahead and do it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2416431
If you want to revert back to stock, go ahead and do that too.

But I say your best bet is to just push a ROM in recovery. Are you S-Off?
Also, what commands are you doing to push a ROM? Is the E: drive where your SDK toolkit located?
Karn101,
What ROM and RECOVERY would you suggest I flash?
I had the TWRP 2.6.3.4 touch recovery installed but for some reason it would not allow me to install the following 2 ROMS
1. Google Edition HTC One VZW [KITKAT]
2. Inverted-EclipticONE-KitKat-v1.2
When I did this I kept getting the E: Error executing updater binary which really had me as a loss.
To answer your question I am S-OFF it says UNLOCKED M7_WLV PVT SHIP S-OFF RH @ the bootloader screen.
HBOOT Version is 1.54.000
Also when I was pushing a ROM I was using some commands I found in a guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2354259
I followed some of the steps on here with no luck...
Also I attempted to flash several recoveries from Fast boot with the Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img in the command promt. It shows that the files was sent but the phone just get stuck at the bootloader saying loading recovery at the top in blue font.
Can you walk me through each step on this? I need to get a recovery on there first them push a ROM to the device and install it via the recovery.... I am assuming that would be the easiest method.
If your s-off can't you flash the Ruu in fastboot? Maybe that will help

I suggest this as well.
also
"brick" means phone is dead. you're phone turns on..
not a brick.
what i did once when i couldnt flash RUU was it should work S-On and well Its got to work on S-Off
1-Download TWRP recovery also the System.img and boot.img
2-Rename TWRPRecovery6.3xx.img to Recovery.img
3-Flash recovery in fastboot fastboot flash recovery Recovery.img
4-boot into recovery via fastboot fastboot boot recovery.img
This will boot your device into the custom recovery
5-press Backup
6-swipe to confirm
7-after it's done making a backup
8-navigate back to the home screen
9-press Advanced
10-press Mount
11-check the box next to USB-OTG
This will allow to mount your sdcard into the computer and you can copy the system.img from the RUU
12-open folder TWRP open folder BACKUPS ETC ETC until you get to the folder with the backup you just made
13-delete the system.ext4.win delete the system.ext4.win.md5
14-copy the system.img here abd rename it to
15-system.ext4.win
16-then unmount
17-then navigate back to the home page in the recovery and
18-press Restore
19-then choose that backup and swipe to confirm
20-also recommend fastbooting the boot.img
this is what i did when i couldnt get any rom to flash any roms via recovery nor a i could do a RUU saved my phone.

Thank you for replying, can you just explain how? and what is the latest valid rom that I can get to my Desire HD?
Thank you again

You have to extract the boot.img from the zip you are trying to flash inside the folder you have fastboot.Then you give the command fastboot flash boot boot.img to flash the new kernel.
You could also install 4EXT recovery and use smartflash as long as you are s-on.
Thanx a million for all.. I will try to do that today and will forward the results.
Thanx again
ONE QUESTION:
shall I connect the devise at the buginning or after flashinf the boot comand? and in what status the devise should be connected (fastboot or recovery)?
Another thing: as Im running windows, my PC is recognizing the device imidietly, so do I still hav to install any drive from htcdev ? and what drive is that ?
Sorry for that but as I said before, Im a little noob in this..
Thanx in advance..
OK, here are the results:
did the tutorial to the letter as in the link, everything went well till the end, after that I restarted the devise and simply it goes to recovery?
now everytime I restart the devise it goes to recovery automatically?

I told you to install 4ext if you like!
4ext is a recovery with the ability either you are S-ON or S-OFF user can flash for you any kernel you like with smart flash.
What you probably did was to flash this recovery as kernel for your device.If you want to install this recovery you have to install it to recovery partition using fastboot flash recovery {your recovery.img}.
If you want to make your rom working again you have to extract the boot.img file from the zip you was trying to install using recovery and you flash it manually using fastboot flash boot boot.img or you could use 4ext to flash it with smartflash but it would be better if you installed it first to the recovery partition (If you use 4ext now you probably have to make a full flash of your rom except if you find only the kernel in a zip or you have an older nandroid backup with the right kernel to restore).
** You have to enable smartflash only if you are S-ON.If you S-OFF your device you should disable this feature. **

Just extract the boot.img of the rom zip you was trying to install in the folder you have the fastboot and then install it using the command fastboot flash boot boot.img while you are in bootloader.
Don't be confused with 4ext.This is just a recovery like cwm.
