[SOLVED]Help! Cant recover my Desire - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I was flashing the latest sensation port when I tried to boot the phone was stuck on htc or alpharev screen so I removed the battery and booted into recovery to wipe and restore my reflex rom, but when wiping i get this error;
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
I can boot into fastboot and recovery but I cannot flash from sd card, can anyone help with this?
This was solved by the following method;

[PROBLEM] I can't install new roms on Desire and can't wipe....ClockWork can't mount.

Hi everyone!
After 2 months i decided to root my Desire and install custom ROM.
I have rooted phone using Unrewoked application version 3.32. Everything was done, it has rebooted several times and Desire was rooted.
Now when i enter ClockWorkMod Recovery it shows:
ClockWorkMod Recovery v2.5.0.7
E:Can't find MISC:
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command
E:Can't find MISC:
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
E:Can't find MISC:
When i try to install Oxygen 2.0 using zip file it shows:
Finding update package....
Opening update package...
Installing update...
assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot")
E:error in /sdcard/update-oxygen-2.0-signed.zip
(Status 7)
Installation Aborted.
If i wipe device nothing really happens...
Where is the problem? Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance.
Take the battery out and leave your phone off for a few minutes.
Put the battery back in and try it again.
The exact same thing happened to me yesterday and this is how I fixed it!
Edit:
This usually happens because the phone cannot read the SD Card so remove the SD Card and put it back in.
Could be a corrupt SD card, what happens when you boot without an SD card inserted?
I left battery out for arround 5 minutes and it didn't helped. I changed SD card and it didn't helped too.... Well i will try tomorrow again. Thanks anyway
edit: I tried to boot into recovery without SD card and it shows errors too.
If ur desire is a new PVT4 device, the ClockWorkMod 2.5.0.7 doesn't work..U have to use amon ra 2.0.1 or the lathest clockworkmod 3.0.0.5-r3 (second post for downlaod)
To apply ur preferred recovery, u have to run unrevoked again, but before run it select from unrevoked program the *.img file of ur recovery (amon_ra or latest clockwork)
.
.................................
-Download amon ra
-Run unrevoked and from File/Custom recovery select the img file of amon ra
-Just now plug ur device and wait it to apply the new recovery
-Now u can flash the rom u like
Unrevoked allows u to root and also to flash a new recovery. A new recovery is needed for u to flash roms
I hope to have been more clear now

I had this problem initially on my SLCD desire 0.93 hboot.
The reason is that it need a custom root file to loaded through unlocker. This is available through XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9245153
recovery-RA-desire-v1.7.0.1-R5.1-0.93.rar
after this it rooted perfectly

[q] stuck in recovery

Dear XDA experts.
yesterday i was trying to install the new leedroid rom on my HTC DESIRE.
somehow after i flashed factory settings, i am no longer able to mount my sdcard.
I tryed to mount in from the recovery-partitions and from the ADB by myself, unfortunately it was no luck at all.
The error i get is: "mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 on /sdcard failed: No such file or directory"
The condition of the phone is that it is totaly formated, only recovery exists.
I have a nandroid beckup on my computer, i tried to flash i from fastboot but it says no android-info.txt found.
Hope you will be able to help me....

[Q] Rooting problem.

Hi there,
I have a SLCD Desire with Hboot 0.93 which I have rooted with unrEVOked (v3.32). Seemed to go through fine, then proceeded to install ROM Manager which updated clockworkmod recovery to a higher version. I then reinstalled the original 2.5.0.7 recovery. Have put the ICS rom on the device and tried to install and seems to go through fine but when I reboot the device appears to be on the stock rom (2.2) but with superuser permissions installed. The device is branded on T-Mobile so has their start up screen etc.
I wiped the SD card so it just has the rom, and updates for it on the card. No android folder etc...
Try to 'Backup Current Rom' using ROM Manager and it says this when i first open it:
E: Can't find MISC:
E: Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command
E: Can't find MISC:
E: Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
E: Can't find MISC:
and this when i go through the options and click backup:
Backing up boot...
Error while dumping boot image!
E: Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
E: Can't find MISC:
Have tried to reflash using unrEVOked but it gets stuck at 'running root' every time.
Help?
Many thanks,
Dan.

and is there a solution for macs? just curious.

If the error still appears after you got S-OFF + root by revolutionary, you have to flash a different recovery via fastboot. IMHO 4EXT and RMD are the best ones at the moment.
To flash recovery via fastboot, you have to install ADB / fastboot. In my sig you find a guide for this.

[Q] Help Please!!! My phone is bricked and can't flash recovery

Ok here is my problem
I have an incredible 2 rooted and s-off and flashed with condemned CM 7.2
the device hangs up occasionally and I of course I take the battery out to get it back to work, until today while I was installing something from the play store it hanged up again and I took the battery out but this time the device won't pass the HTC white screen at all. I was able to get into CWM recovery and here is what I got:
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
I tried wipe data/factory reset and cache wipe and all went OK
Then I tried to restore a nandroid with no luck and I get this message:
Checking MD5 sums...
Erasing boot before restore...
Restoring boot image...
Restoreing system....
Error while formatting /system!
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
I Tried flashing another room and I get this error message:
and it gave a (status1) error
I googled a bit and found those two similar cases:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1150917
http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/6433-solved-messed-up-partitions-on-internal-storage/
so either my eMMc is fired or needs partitioning
I used to have CWM 4.0.0.5 so I thought of updating to a newer version to solve the problem but it won't update, the fastboot code "fastboot flash recovery" hangs at (writing recovery ...) and the phone is also hanged. After waiting long enough I took the battery out once again and this time I don't have any recovery installed at all and of course can't install any recovery.
I wish someone has a solution to my problem so that I can try partitioning method.
Addition: Now whenever I connect the usb port to the phone it automatically turns on and logs into hboot
