I tried to root my dhd with coredroid, and it dont start up. the coredroid logo comes but when is comes to homescreen it goes to coredroid logo again.
What can i do? i dont have a backup.
I can enter clockworkmod recovery an sd card.
Is it possible to download a back up from a nother dhd?
Wise.. Custom ROMs are always rooted, you do not need to root them again.
You probably broke something important. Just go to clockworkmod, do a wipe (factory reset / wipe data in main screen) and reflash your ROM from SD. There is too much hype around nandroid backups, because wipe + ROM flash has exactly the same effect.

need more info. how did you go about trying to do this? what steps did you? More info on what you did can help someone figure out where you went wrong. Did you create a nandroid backup before you flashed the ROM? what recovery are you using? Did you wipe data (factory reset), cache, and davlik cache prior to flashing the ROM? If you did make a back up, and can get to Recovery (volume down and power button, then select recovery) I would wipe all data, cache and davlik cache, then flash a nandroid backup. If you didn't make a nandroid backup, I would try wiping everything again, and try flashing the ROM a second time.

THAT SHOULD GET U BACK TO STOCK
Okay, so earlier today I rooted my evo and flashed the CM6 ROM. A little later I tried to install Google apps.
I followed a tutorial on youtube on how to install gapps using rom manager.
Now my Evo is stuck in the Clockworkmod recovery screen and when I click reboot system now it reboots and goes back to the clockworkmod screen. I tried wiping data/factory reset and then re-installing the CM6 ROM, it did not work.
I really need some help here, I'm not too experienced and I don't want to brick my Evo. How do i fix this?? I am freaking out. Thank you!
I use AmonRA recovery personally and flash everything through recovery. I had too many problems when I tried flashing things through Rom Manager app. Do you have a nandroid backup? If so install the backup and then boot into recovery and reinstall CM6 and gapps back to back in the same recovery session. If no backup, download PC36IMG that corresponds with your hboot version and put it on the root of your sd card. Boot into bootloader by holding volume down and power at the same time. It will scan the sd card for PC36IMG and then verify it. It will then ask you if you want to update. Select yes and let it do its thing and then when it asks if you want to reboot select yes. This will put you back to stock and may unroot, so you may have to do the root procedure again. Then install CM6 and gapps in same recovery session.
Before all this try wiping cache and davlick cache and reboot. If that doesn't work try powering off phone through clockwork and then boot into bootloader. It will scan for PC36IMG and not find it then you will have options to boot into different things. Select recovery, and it will boot into Clockwork. Wipe cache and davlick cache and reboot. See if this works. If not you will have to nandroid or go back to stock probably unless someone that has had this problem and comes along to help you fix it. Always wipe cache and davlick when installing something new like gapps or kernels and full wipe when installing a new Rom, unless you are updating a Rom then just Davlick and Cache.
As long as the phone turns on it is not bricked.

Where can I download the pc36img? Also, it seems that when I try to wipe dalvik cache, it doesn't do anything.

If you are having issues getting the img on your SD card, if you have a card reader handy just use that to transfer it over

I did find the correct one for my hboot version, but another question I have is do I need to flash unrevoked-forever-son.zip since I rooted using unrevoked 3.32? Or do I just put the PC36IMG on the sd card and flash it? Thanks.
Okay, I seem to have gotten it back to stock. Thank god, thought I lost my evo for a minute! Thanks to those who helped me out, its 4:45 in the morning and now I can finally go to bed! ;]
LOL glad ya got it back.. Yeah thats where I was heading before I seen your post..Its 5:46 am and Im not sure how many Evo people are actually on at this time so...anyway nite
I stayed on to help as long as I could, but had to go to work. Sorry I couldn't be here to help with more questions. Funny I was just getting up for work and you guys were just going to bed.
Glad you got it fixed for now. Remember to flash CM6 from recovery and not Rom Manager. Also, flash Gapps from recovery and not Rom Manager app. Flash CM then gapps and reboot. Make sure you do a full wipe first though. You could also look for Calkulin's tools thread in Dev section of EVO forum and find his wipe all zip. You just flash it like any other zip but it formats data, cache, boot and system partitions so that when you flash a new ROM nothing is left over from old one. Good luck my friend and happy flashing.
PS. I don't think the stock rom would give you s-on since you already had s-off, so you should be good to go. I could be wrong, but as long as you still have a custom recovery and s-off you should be good to flash any Rom.

Hey Everyone,
I had Starburst with Data2SD flashed on my Desire with some things cooked in from the UOT. I found the MIUI ROM and I figured I wanted to try it. I made a Recovery backup so that if I didn't like it, I could get right back to where I left off. I flashed the CDMA MIUI ROM which was a mistake because my Desire is GSM (Doh) But I went in to recovery and selected the backup I made before I flashed MIUI and restored it, it restored successfully but when I reboot it just sits at the white screen that says htc and it doesn't go anywhere after that. I can reflash the Starburst ROM and reinstall the Data2SD and it will boot and everything and then I go back in to recovery and restore just the data from the back up and it doesn't boot after that. Can anyone help me figure out where I'm going wrong? I don't really want to start from scratch. Any help is appreciated. If you think you can help but don't understand what I'm asking, either post here or PM me. Thanks. I would really like my Desire to work so I can stop using my dreaded Iphone.
Did you do a full wipe before you restored your backup? Make sure you do a factory reset/data wipe, cache wipe and dalvik wipe (from advanced menu)
If it still does not work, try wipe just the cache and dalvik cache after restoring the backup and see if it will boot then.
I just managed to nearly brick my buddy's Droid X, and I just wanted to see if there was an easier way to do what I had to go through.
Going from Liberty 2.0 to DarkSlide, did a nandroid backup, wiped data, cache, dalvik, the usual... But, darkslide didn't install right for some reason, and it hung on the bootlogo. After waiting 15 minutes, I finally pulled the battery, expecting Clockwork to come up, and I could restore. Instead, I had the normal recovery, with the four options to wipe data, wipe cache, install update.zip, or reboot.
Now, besides the point that I just had to sieve through several update.zip's, including a bad md5 sum or two, running RSD Lite and loading a stock Rom and re-rooting. This was my first time ever going through all this crazy process... I'm just wondering:
If a ROM goes wrong in installing, is there a way to avoid all the insanity I just went through, or am I running the risk of going through all that every time I flash a new ROM?
Haha same here. I almost bricked my phone but o was able to restore it with the original RUU to downgrade and reset to factory settings. By doing that I just had a spare sd card to format and re-rooted. Once that was done ROM Manager did the rest with restoring my last backed up working ROM on my original sd card.
Its hard to come by one click rooting tools.

How would I go about that?
hmm If you would flash Clockwork into recovery section of you phone and not using Rom Manager to boot into update.zip (ClockWork), you woudln't have such problems
Everytime I do a update and it fails it still boots into the Bootloader and my beloved ClockWork Mod v3 with the ability to flash another CustomRom with works.

I rooted the incredible using unrevoked, no problem.
Installed and ran root apps, no problem, backed up everything using titanium backup and rom manager (nandroid) and so forth, installed cw recovery 3.0.0.8.
When I install the skyraider 4 rom from rom manager, it reboots and installs, but then when it reboots again it hangs at the white htc incredible screen (and I've let it wait as long as a half an hour). I have to take out the battery to be able to reboot it.
I can boot back to recovery and then re-install and boot back to the stock rooted rom just fine. But I can't get a new rom installed and working.
I've looked at previous threads about this problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038402

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=620621
and several other threads on other sites.
The only suggestions to come out of those, other that starting over from scratch (which I've done multiple times now), were to reformat the sd card, which I've also done, and to downgrade to cm recovery 2.5.1.2. Rom manager only shows versions as old as 3.0.0.5. I have put the PB31IMG.zip file on the sd card and loaded that before to help recover but I don't see how that helps with installing a new rom.
Any other suggestions? The main reason I even need a new rom is because bluetooth doesn't work in the stock rom (known issue: http://community.htc.com/na/htc-forums/android/f/91/p/2336/8570.aspx )
It sounds like you are not wiping cache and Davlik (in advanced). The constant reboot of the white screen is a classic symptom of not performing a cache and Davlik wipe

appreciate your help, yeah I've been doing that everytime in rom manager. I tried it several times manually in cm recovery, too, and still the white screen.
I'll just see if verizon can exchange it, or else I'll sell it for another phone with working bluetooth.
Might try reverting to the 2.5.1.2 recovery as I've heard the 3.x.x.x ones don't wipe consistently.

There is a flash of CWM 2.5 that temporarily lets you use that to flash the rom then when you reboot it will revert back. Try that.
