My daughter is using a MyTouch Slide which I rooted and put Slidemeroot5 on. She's been using it for a few months now with no issues. Just a bit ago I noticed the CM6 was available and went to grab her phone. The screen wasn't responding so I pulled the battery and restarted. It booted into the standard recovery mode and after that none of the buttons respond. Only option is to pull the battery but then it still boots into recovery.
I placed ESPRIMG.zip on the sdcard and recovery could not find the file. Is this phone bricked? I can't even think of what might have happened for it to do this.
I'd try wiping from HBOOT screen first.
It doesn't give me the opportunity to. Buttons are completely unresponsive. Ended up doing a warranty replacement with T-Mobile.
My EVO 4G will no longer boot into recovery, it just sits at the white HTC EVO 4g screen and never goes anywhere past that. Nothing has changed on my phone except I did get an upgrade for Superuser, it is running version 2.3.5 and the Su binary v 2131230734. This is the only thing that has changed on my phone but for some reason I cannot boot into recovery anymore. I am using clockworkmod 2.5.0.1 recovery and in Rom Manager, doing reboot in Recovery it is staying at the white HTC Evo 4g screen. I have also tried holding the volume down button when powering on the phone and choosing recovery and from there it is doing the same thing. I have tried reflashing clockwordmod in rom manager and still no success. At this point I am not sure which direction to go since I would like to backup my current rom install a different rom since my wifi tether suddenly stopped working. Does anyone have any suggestion on a fix for this? Thank you.
My phone does this every once in a while. A battery pull usually solves it. I don't know man.
Maybe you should try and battery pull for about 30 seconds to a minute, if that doesn't work, I would flash a different recovery and try again.
Hey all!
I have a question, I recently tried to flash the stable CyanogenMod 7 for Wildfire. The ROM flashed but when it was installing no dialogue came up, I decided to reboot my phone to see if it had worked. I discovered that the ROM had not actually installed because my phone stayed on the HTC boot logo forever. I even left it on before I went to sleep to see if it would eventually boot into the software but no, it was still on the boot logo when I woke up. The logical solution to this would be to boot into the recovery screen but there's a problem with that, I can't. In getting my screen replaced in the past the volume buttons have been broken and therefore I cannot select the recovery option on the bootloader screen :\ Would anyone be able to offer me an alternative to booting into the recovery screen as I currently have no way of fixing my phone and am beginning to get pissed off with the ZTE Racer I'm using as a replacement...
Any help would be much appreciated!!
Try installing a RUU of 2.1 and then see if your volume buttons work. If not then contact HTC for a repair.
You misunderstand my problem, I think. I can't run the RUU because there is literally no software on my phone right now so RUU won't even recognise that it is connected to the PC because I can only access the Bootloader screen but cannot select any options because of my non-functional volume buttons. I'm pretty sure I can't send it back to HTC because my warranty is voided by the fact that I've rooted the phone and failed to install custom firmware on it and therefore it has been modified, please tell me if I'm wrong but I'm really in a predicament here. If I'm wrong about having voided my warranty would I be right in thinking any repair would be free?
EDIT: I managed to fix my phone. Pretty much all I had to do was load the bootloader, select fastboot, plug it into my PC and using the correct RUU I managed to restore my phone to stock ROM Thanks for the help!!
Hi Friends,
I did a lot of searching and tried a bunch of things, but I am not very successful. Can you experts please tell me if my EVO is dead/gone for good?
Symtoms:
My Evo was charging (it was rooted and S-Off), I took the charger cable off, and the phone rebooted.
It went to the White HTC Evo screen that comes before any ROM boots, and basically looped their infinitely.
Since then, the symptoms have switched back and forth from Bootloops on the white screen OR STUCK on the white screen, infinitely.
Currently, I am getting white screen boot loops
Things I have tried:
1. Cleared Storage (via Bootloader/Fastboot)
2. Chose "Recovery" from Bootloader/Fastboot (nothing happens, reboots and stuck on the white screen or loops)
3. Reverted back to S-ON
4. Flashed other Recovery zips
5. Upgraded the Fastboot version
6. Flashed the RUU
Current Situation:
Nothing changed guys... and after the RUU flash (out of which the Radio flash was the only component that FAILED) my PC31IMG.zip files are no longer being promoted for updates in my Fastboot/Bootloader menu.
While the reboots continue on the white screen...
Can't access Recovery
Can't run PC36IMG.zips anymore
Am I done here guys, or is there still anything I can do to save my EVO?
Appreciate ALL your help!
Man I have the same problem execept I'm not rooted or s off if you change the battery and let it sit for awhile off it will turn on but it will reboot in about 5 mintues then get stuck on the sprint 4g screen of the htc screen
Hey theneguy,
Thanks for your response... My phone was rooted, but is now S-On and Unrooted, I believe (I can't tell because I am not able to get in the OS).
I can't get into Recovery and my PC31IMG is not being read now...
Any ideas, friends?

same thing happened to my son, pulled sd card and it would boot fine, found and deleted a corrupt .img file on sd...all is fine
Latest Update guys:
I tried flashing the RUU via HBoot/Flashboot, and the update failed, but the progress bar at the screen was full/successful. The on-screen wizard tried to take me to the "Recovery" steps, nothing was fixed.
The computer wizard was stuck at: Sending Signature....
And the phone had the full progress bar from the previous flash.
So I yanked the battery out, cause I had no options left.
Well, needless to say, now, NOTHING turns on. The phone doesn't charge, and blah, blah, blah.
So guys, can someone give me a verdict... is my EVO done for good?
Thanks for your help.
I can't get in the recovery eather I tryed pulling the sd card out it is still doing the same thang

It should be PC36IMG not 31.

Thanks Mark,
But I don't think it matters anymore... I think with the battery pulled out after a failed RUU.exe installation has truly bricked my phone for good.
It doesn't charge, the battery was good, NOTHING lights up, and I just think it's game over...

mine did the same thing when it got warm. put it in the fridge for like 20 min then try again if it boots up successfully when its cold then you have a hardware problem
