try reflashing your recovery through ROM manager you may wont to do it 2 or 3 times to make sure it sticks then goto reboot into revoery from ROM manager... good luck
I tried that and now it will go to the bootloader screen when I try to boot into recovery

How did you try get into recovery that made you end up in fastboot?
If you did Vol down + Power, that will get you to fastboot from a powered down state.
However there is no shortcut like that to get to recovery.
You can select bootloader from the fastboot menu, and then select recovery from there.

No I tried to boot into recovery from rom manager and it went to fast boot I don't know my sd card is being wierd and automatically unmounting the sd card

Have you tried unloading your SD card onto your computer and reformatting it before replacing it into your phone?
Not yet I am going to do that tonight this 8 gig sd card has had a lot of use through my last g2 and I just thought it was weird that it went to fast boot when trying to reboot into recovery through rom manager

I cant even boot into recovery. Any ideas? I was using it and it just restarted and I cant do anything at all. It goes to the white htc evo screen and then reboots into a loop. Device is rooted btw.
I've been getting similar issues. Do you happen to have an exchange account?

Can you boot into the bootloader after a battery pull and replace, followed by holding volume down and power buttons at the same time?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
I Couldnt get into recovery to wipe anything, nor unroot the device. Reflashing a recovery or RUU through the bootloader didnt work either. Luckily I was able to get a new EVO from my local Sprint store today even though my device was rooted! Came with 2.3.3. so I was sad that I wouldnt be able to root. Then I come online, and BAM! 2.3.3 got root access today! #WINNING
And BTW, I was tethering and sending a text when the phone suddenly rebooted and wouldnt stop. Wasnt cause by the root or flashing anything.
Hi.
So I finally got my Desire working after it had been "bricked" for sometime. However, I have a persistent problem that I cannot seem to fix.
Every time I install a ROM by putting the .zip on the SD card and installing from recovery, it works perfectly. I choose the restart option and the phone boots up fine and each ROM is working as it should.
However, on the next reboot after power off, the phone will hang on the ROM logo screen, it get's past the white on green HTC logo screen. This is happening with any ROM that I install.
I would apreciate any help or advice
May be a problem with your SD card or the way you partitioned it.
Wipe everything and re-partition your card using 4ext recovery or gparted.

I've never done anything to the sdcard. However earlier I reformatted all the options within recovery such as cache, data, system etc then reinstalled a ROM again and it now seems ok. So fingers crossed. Thanks for your advice.

Scratch that. It's still doing it. I'll try the partitioning but I've no clue what I'm supposed to do.

Check out the Desire index. There is a guide on how to partition your card correctly.

So here's my issue. My phone no longer allows me to flash roms from my external or internal sd card safely. What happens with every rom I flash is twofold. Data connection is always lost, and any reboot causes the phone to boot directly into download mode bypassing the odin flash page. The phone recovers from this with a simple odin back to stock. However, not being able to use non stock roms is no bueno to me.
Does this sound like some internal hwr problem? Is this an SD card issue? Would love some insite.
Which recovery are you using?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
Using clockwork recovery current version

Every ROM I flashed had some bugs and they started to multiply. I used Super Wipe and killed EVERYTHING.
I then loaded every zip onto my micro SD via my computer and put it in my phone. Flash and Go.
I went back to stock rooted MA7. The glitches were gone,
So my suggestion is to do a recovery of your first full backup or do what I did.
Okay will try super wipe tonight thanks
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Or if that doesn't work use twrp.

Honestly after I Odin it I think Ill try twrp first. I think I've used the superwipe before

Okay, I can't find the thanks button for you guys. THis is the solution. Don't use CWM recovery. TWRP worked wonders, and because I didn't format recovery in cwm so superwipe would probably had helped as well
Glad its working now. I have never used cwm on this phone. But twrp has been smooth sailing.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
Use twrp on my s3, and cwm on the wife's note 2. Never had a problem with cwm. Sounds like the problem was not doing a full wipe with cwm (and not a problem with the cwm recovery itself)? But, whatever works for you.

Can you wipe data in recovery at all? As long as you can get into Download mode, there's always a way to save the device by flashing back to stock and starting again, so don't lose hope.
Let me try why is the twrp recovery touch not working

Honestly, I have never, ever had any luck with TWRP, and I've tried it many times on many devices. It looks great, but it's just not as reliable as the good old CWM recovery. This isn't to start a flame war with TWRP fans. I'm just stating my observations over the last few years of trying it.
I am with you I have been flashing for years this is the first time this has happened. Now I am in the process of going back to stock with a slow ass computer. Thanks
Sent from my GT-P5210 using xda app-developers app
If you can get into download mode by pressing both volume keys while plugging in the usb cable connected to your PC, then you are not bricked, just do a factory image flash and start over, it happens even to the more experienced.
I btw use CWM but I don't flash ROM's that much.
Erik
You also posted the same issue in at least 3 different posts. Limit it to one post and you might get more response.
I had that happen with one of the TWRP files floating around here. If you wanna use TWRP, you need the hacked e986 one which works splendidly on my e980. Hardcore CWM fan, myself, but I love the ease of just using the touch screen.

If you have an SD card you can download the CWM .zip from here, put it on your card and flash that from within TWRP. Then you just have to reboot the recovery, wipe and restore. This is the CWM included in FreeGee. I personally tested this version for @Shelnutt2 a while back and have used the .zip a few times, since.
I did it and it worked thanks

Okay so i bought a samsung Galaxy note 2 on craigslist(not a good idea) and what the seller told me is that it was unlocked. well i got the phone and put my Tmobile sim card and it worked. i tried to do a system update which i kept getting a reminder for and my phone is now stuck on the opening samsung galaxy note 2 sign. well i took it to the cell phone repair places we have around here and none of them could fix it. apparently the guy rooted the phone to unlock it but the phone doesnt have a custom recovery. it can boot to download mode but thats about it. if anyone knows how to fix this i would greatly appreciate your help.
Not bricked. ..
Boot to recovery using the 3 button combination and factory reset the phone. ..then reboot. .
If the device sticks on the splash screen again. ..you'll need to push a new image via Odin. .
But the phone is far from bricked. ..it's just mad...g

Is the phone stolen? Might have been SIM locked.
I would try flashing a stock ROM onto it via Odin. If that fails you probably bought a HOT phone. Or it has hardware damage.
Sent from my SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
It was unlocked when I got it... it had a custom rom on it and when I tried to do the update it made the phone do what's it doing now.. so what option am I left with? I already tried stock rom and nothing :/
Sent from my LG-P659 using xda app-developers app
So you have flashed a custom recovery? I can see that you said it did not have a custom recovery on it (but had a custom ROM?). If you haven't flashed the recovery and have not followed the flash to stock instructions (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2275844), then do so (be as specific as possible on the steps you've taken since it seems you might be a beginner at this by trying to update OTA a rooted device).
happened to me too. pull the battery. hold vol up and power and home and then insert battery. Keep holding till the 2nd time it reboots and you see the logo then let go of the buttons. This should put you into recovery. Wipe cache and wipe phone then reboot.
This worked for me, hope it works for you.
Trying to get into recovery mode doesn't work... I am a begginer at this. I tried pulling the battery out and doing the up home and power combo but that does not work.
