I installed the Virtuous Unity V1.31 rom and I didn't like the way the "Email" app worked to I installed "tools_gapps-gb-20110307-signed". I still didn't like the way this rom was working so I tried to go back into recovery and I get get on the HTC boot logo. I have to pull out the battery to make restart. The phone works fine, but I can't get into Clockwork to restore my backup. Does anyone know how I can get back into recovery? The weird thing is i can backup this rom from Rom manager perfectly, but can't restore (gets stuck on the boot screen).
Did you recenlty update cwm? I know a few people were having problems after upgrading. Take the battery out, put it back in and hold volume down+power to enter the bootloader and see if you are able to get to recovery that way.

I had to use Rom Manager to back up my rom, but it wouldn't let me do anything else. Somehow it started worked normally in the morning. I think it was the new update to clockwork..

Hey guys hope someone can help me out here. I just updated my phone to the latest OTA Rooted ROM and everything was working fine. Then I used Rom Manager to download the latest Fresh 3.0.?? ROM. When it downloaded it asked if I wanted to backup ROM and wipe data. I checked both on. Then phone rebooted and it wont get past white HTC Evo4G screen. I did vol down and power and I go to Recovey and again it freezes on this screen. I cant access my sd card to put any recovery stuff on the phone. How do I get past this?? This sucks

I had the same issue this morning loading the new Fresh Rom. "Stuck at White HTC EVO" screen. Just do a battery pull to restart your phone and let it boot up normally. It should be able to load after that.
Thanks a lot fuzion. I could have sworn I tried that last night but I guess I didn't. So I guess no Fresh ROM ?? Anyway to get it on ?
You could try loading one of the PC36IMG zips on your sd using an adapter to go back to stock and start over
Well I got my phone back on and working with the 2.2 OTA rooted back the way it was. I go into ROM manager and I made sure to do the ClockworkMod Recovery install. When I turn on the phone with vol down + power I select Recovery it just freezes on the Evo 4g screen. Never takes me to the recovery menu like I used to have. Anyone have any idea why??
Let's do a checklist:
1. Full root including NAND unlock (i.e. NOT Unrevoked)?
2. Installed and re-installed latest ROM Manager, and then latest CWM?
3. Copied Fresh 3.1.0.1 to root of SD card?
4. Booted into recovery using either CWM option or power+volume up?
5. You don't have an old PC36IMG.zip on your SD card, do you?
6. If you can get into recovery, do all your flashing from there, and DON'T FORGET to do data, cache, and dalvik wipes.
7. If all else fails, maybe use CWM to flash Amon RA instead and try that way.
8. If all THAT fails, go back to toast's guides and re-root everything.
Other long shots: Install Titanium Backup and use that to install BusyBox. I have no idea if this would help, maybe it's totally unrelated. Also, you could use an app called Quick Boot to reboot into recovery, but if selecting the reboot option from CWM doesn't work, I don't know why QB would.
And one more thing: Don't be throwing the term "bricked" around when you're clearly not even close to bricked.
I flashed the most recent ClockworkMod to my phone using ROM manager so I could do a ROM backup, and now my phone will not go into recovery mode. When I get into the boot menu and try to go into recovery, it goes into the splash screen and stays there.
Has anyone else had this happen with ClockworkMod 3.0.0.3? It took my phone quite a while to boot after that, and it put me into panic mode for a good moment.
I'll be flashing Amon_RA now to do my backup/ROM flashing. The latest updates to ClockworkMod keep doing crazy, crazy things to my poor EVO. Has anyone else experienced this?
YES! I was flashing a rom earlier tonight with the latest clockwork from rom manager and it messed up everything. Tried a bunch of different things. Still hangs on splash screen. How long did you have to wait?
yes also nothing wanted to flash had to go back to clockwm.. 2.5.0 where everything was petfect lol
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
same here, went to flash a few zips and installations kept aborting. just flashed amon ra and no problems now. hopefully they fix whatever happened to clockworkmod before ppl go crazy lol
my evo is doing that as i type this, i will definitely be switching to amon ra (as soon as my evo stops freaking out) until it gets fixed.

I used the ClockworkMod from unrevoked
http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/forever
place the appropriate file on the root of the sdcard using a card reader and boot into HBOOT.
I got out of it by crossing my fingers and doing a battery pull, then booting normally. Thankfully it worked, so I had the chance to use ROM Manager to flash Amon_RA, but I can't guarantee it would work for everyone's.
hope this helps some one I went to appmarket and romanager and uninstalled update then went to app to flash back to older version 2.5
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I hope so too. At this point I'd probably recommend that everyone with trouble either go back to 2.5 or even suggest switching to Amon_RA... nothing but problems with 3.0. !
i just rooted with s on and i flashed a custom recovery then rebooted. htc logo came up, and then a black screen its been like an hour with the black screen and it wont boot. i know that normally its takes a long time to boot a fresh rom but this is ridiculous. and i made sure that i flashed a cdma rom marvelc. what do i do!!
i can still boot into the boot loader though
Dude im no expert in HTC phones but you had to turn s-off when rooting your phone. If you made a nandroid backup your in luck reflash your stock rom back and this time root with s-off and enjoy flashing plz hit the thanks button if i helped.

Boot into hboot with volume down + power. Scroll down to recovery and push power to enter it. All going well you should go into your recovery. If you get a red triangle with an ! Then you still have the stock recovery.
OK now scroll down and make a back UP!!! After that factory reset the device, wipe cache, dalvik cache. Data. Everything aside from your sdcard. Then reboot the device. This should get your device operational again. Reboot should take no longer than 15 minutes.
After that choose a custom rom to flash, or just go about setting up the phone as you want.
When you go to flash a new rom make sure you back up first, then wipe everything bar SD card. Then install the rom and reboot.
Good luck pal

actually when i was rooting the recovery wasnt working for me the tool tried to made me go into recovery but i was stuck at the htc logo. but the tool also offered to install twrp or clockworkmod i installed clock and still wont stuck at the htc logo so i tried twrp and it worked and then i got rooted.
i think i might be twrp that doesnt install roms right.
also i installed a rom it worked but no wifi and wifi was the most important tool for me so the rom is ussless to me

Thank you you for replying but I did some experimenting around and I found out that the clockwork mod was a marvel recovery
I have a marvelc wildfire so I went to rezo609 folder and found the recovery img and replaced it with a clockwork marvelc img.
Then I opened the prompt selected install clockwork mod, it installed
Then I went to recovery, worked and installed the cm9 rom (marvelc) and gapps and It successfully worked
You were probably right its beta so it has some bugs
But thank you all who tried to help me I really appreciate it
Sorry I just started so I deleted the URL
no problem buddy always happy to help.
So today i was gonna try to install a custom rom, more specifically Cyanogenmod 10.2. for my Tmobile Galaxy S3 (SGH-T999). When i went to boot into recovery, i saw the screen that is displayed right before you enter recovery, but then after that it just stayed on a black screen. I took out the battery for a few seconds and powered on my phone. Then i tried entering recovery directly through ROM Manager. I got the same black screen, but now if i try to power on my phone without entering CWM, it automatically tries to go into CWM recovery regardless. . I tried a few battery pulls and nothing has worked yet. Luckily i am able to enter download mode so i can flash the stock rom via odin and then restore my backup from the SD card later. I just wanted to know if there is a simpler fix than this so i don't have to go through the trouble of flashing stock rom again. Btw i am still on the stock rom running android 4.3 jelly bean.
Try flashing custom recovery again and make sure it's the newest.

The problem was i couldn't boot up my phone in the first place because it would automatically go into recovery. I actually fixed it by going it to download mode and then pressing the down button which rebooted the phone properly. I used rom toolbox and now im just gonna stick with TWRP.

That's what I meant, you can flash recovery in download mode but as long as you got it working its all good. And yes I highly suggest using twrp over cwm
Thanks anyway man! TWR FTW!!
Soo.. I decided to install Cynogen Mod 5.1.1 onto the Note 2. And, All worked fine....
But here is an issue. A while back I had to unlock the phone, which required me to install TWRP.. Now the issue is i think i installed it into the Boot instead of recovery.. So now whenever i select ANY power option in TWRP, the phone restarts into TWRP again.. Now, All i had to do was just do a battery pull and all was good.. Except for now..
I tried to update CM through TWRP, but it did something and now the phone boots into TWRP no matter what. I got the Android universal toolkit or whatever running and trying to fix the boot.img, But have been unsuccessful so far..
So, Any help that i can get would be appreciated.
Things I have done:
1. Reflashed boot.img with original.
2. Reflashed recovery with newer twrp
3. Factory reset, formated/
4. Installed backup with 4.4.2 installed still
5. Googled everything

AFTER 5 HOURS OF WORK I FIXED IT!
I reinstalled the Original recovery. Then rebooted, and it all worked.. 1:02 AM and tired as heck....
Can you tell me how you installed the original recovery? I did the same thing and now all my phone boots into is TWRP.
Alright.. It's a bit of a Google.. But you gotta find the original recovery for the phone on the web.. The recovery for the gt-n100 or whatever works. So look for that.
