Helpppp pleaseeee - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I really need some help. I have no idea what has happened to my phone. Anything I d/l from the market or from the computer fc on my phone. I can't use anything. I tried flashing other roms but any ROM I flash just keeps looping the boot image over n over. Even when I try to restore one of my back ups from recovery it does the same it says error while formating data. Then Wen I reboot it just loops the boot image as well. I've tried everything I can think of. If this has happened to anyone please let me know.

By boot image do you mean "splash screen" and "boot animation?" Can you get back to recovery? If so, which recovery and version? If clockworkmos, make sure it's at least 3.0.0.7 or later if your Inc has an amoled screen, 3.0.0.8 if it's SLCD.
If you can get to recovery, power off the phone. Pull the sd card and check that your computer can read it and it's formatted FAT32.
If so, put a clean copy of a ROM on the root of the SD card. Reinsert it in the phone. Boot to hboot (you are running hboot 0.92 right!?) and then to recovery.
In recovery, factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik, then flash the ROM.
If you're running an older hboot and/or older recovery, see elsewhere on XDA how to update those first.

Just to add onto the info already posted, hboots and recoveries can be downloaded at: dougpiston.com

Thanx but I've tried all that. Nothing works

Have you tried flashing stock froyo and then doing a factory reset from hboot? And by stock froyo i mean the official ruu with stock recovery.

Next time you try to do a wipe, also go into mounts and storage and format boot, data, system, and cache. This happened to me once and this seemed to fix my problem. Now I do it every time.

Tried a different sd card?

[Q] problem flahsing roms!!!!

i was doing fine for about a month now( i'm new) and recently i just flashed from cm6 to bakedsnack1.0 the past week my phone was showing the low storage on device and was running really slow. response times were about 4 seconds per digit dialed for a telephone number.
so i tried to reflash that rom. unfortunately it got stuck in a bootloop. so i proceeded in reflahsing kernals, wimax and radio. now it will get out of bootloop however it does the "welcome to bakedsnack" goes to setup then freezes for 10 seconds then does the htc evo4g white screen, "welcome to bakedsnack" and this process repeats over and over.
can someone help me either fix this with custom roms and keeping full root. or cans omeone teach me how to make this phone 100% brand new. as if i just opened it out of the box from sprint. thatw ay i can proceed to start all over.
P.S. i have no knowledge of adb.
bump. pleasE?

Dalvik does that to me too on clockwork but I've never had issues. Try to put a stock rooted Rom on the SD card and do it again.

Also, you can just put your card into your computer and put the Rom on it that way if you need to.

If you are stuck in a bootloop, use the Clear Storage option in the bootloader menu, then in Recovery, clear the caches and flash your rom.

Amon RA recovery
I was having some problems flashing roms at one time as well. Turned out to be a corrupted sd card that wouldn't mount. Try to take out the sd card and place it in a card reader. Save the files on there to you desktop and reformat the card. Place it back in the phone and reboot. This may work for you. And the Amon RA recovery and directions are in the Development section of the EVO forum. Most of the time it's on the first page. Good luck.

[Q] Hlep can't install rom on htc evo

Hello, just checking to see if anyone can help, everytime I try to install a new rom it says that it installes but then when I reboot it boot loops after the htc evo 4g screen. I have used clockwork recovery and also used ra-supersonic-v2.3. The only thing I can install is my nandroid that I have from a previous rom. The new update wont boot either. If any one can help please let me know.
Try wiping everything and then flash the rom. And dont flash two zips at yhe same time.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
ok tried it, still no luck, never gets past htc eco 4g boot screen
try it with both recoveries and if it still doesnt work try older recovieries by going into rom manager going into the very botom and click all clockwordmod recovieries and flash a different one.
I have also used a format all.zip, nothing. everytime i wipe everything multipule times it does the same. Only the nandroid works no other roms will. Please help

well clockwork is your problem. lol. install amon ra v2.3 recovery. once on there wipe everything in the wipe menu except the rotate settings and the sd-card. flash your rom of choice and you should be set.

What are the radio, CWM, and hboot versions? White screen sounds like a rom loaded without the right version(s) of baseband cwm, and/or hboot. Baseband,(radio) and hboot versions are visible in the hboot menu.
Based on those, find a rom that runs on what you have, download to pc and transfer to sd, attempt to flash from recovery after wiping (in recovery) cache, factory reset, and in advanced, format system, and boot.
Absent all that, load onto a different fat32 sd card a rom that runs on the radio and hboot versions you have, and flash.

ive tried almost every rom and still nothing. is there a way to just reverse everything and restore it to how it was originally, then redo the whole process... because i don't know what the previous owner has done with it....
Hmm, dougpiston.com would be the best place to start that.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
Go to dougpiston.com, find the 3.0.0.7 recovery version, and flash that. You didn't give much info on your problem, but it's recommended to use the newer recovery for most, if not all, newer roms.
You shoud be able to flash the stock image from the bootloader p31img or whatever its called for the Inc place on the root of your SD card bootloader will ask if you want to install the file confirm yes and you should be good to go.....dougpiston.com is where you can find it .
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
you don't by chance have a way to contact the owner to see what he/she was trying to do? certain ROMs require that you update hboot to .92 and though the update may go through, people neglect to keep a kernel on the SD card for back up measure, since hboot wipes the kernel. I updated my hboot without any problems or having to reflash ROMs or kernels, but some people have issues with this and the kernel is wiped therefore causing bootloop, and they end up never making it past the HTC white screen. try getting into cwm to flash a kernel, reboot recovery and flash the ROM of your choice.

[Q] UT OOOHHHHH!!! Need Help!

I am an Atrix user. Never had a problem flashing anything with it. My friend gave me his Evo to root and load a rom on. I was able to root and s-off OK, but just d/l'd a rom and tried to flash. Got stuck on the HTC EVO 4G boot screen. Pulled the battery, then booted into recovery. I did not backup ( I then wiped everything to begin flashing the ROM again. Well, now it seems that I have deleted everything. All b/c I was rushing and not thinking clearly. Anyway, is there ANYWAY to remedy this issue? It powers on to Hboot, but thats as far as it goes.
So you can't get into Recovery from Hboot? What happens when you try to get into recovery? If you can get into Recovery you could wipe everything then flash a ROM. Depends on what happens when you try to get into recovery.
If you couldn't get into recovery, I would download AmonRa as a PC36IMG.zip (link in my signature).
If that doesn't work, you could do something similar to a SBF. It is called a RUU. Search for the one corresponding to his Hboot version, plug up your phone and get to hboot and run it as an .exe. Resets to stock.
Try recovery thing first

Thanks for the quick reply. I am able to get into recovery, but when I choose flash zip-choose, it brings up nothing. Its empty.
I will research the RUU method now!! Thanks again!
If you just erased everything, go to recovery, wipe everything, use USB Toggle (If you have Amon Ra Recovery) put a ROM on your SD Card and try to flash it.
BTW, how long were you on the 4G screen?? Because it's gonna take a while to load the ROM and boot up on the first try
You didn't accidentally wipe and/or partition your SD card, did you? Try flashing AmonRa recovery as PC36IMG.zip (I'm guessing you are using clockwork). After you do that, go into Recovery and partition SD card. Then plug up to computer and mount as MS and transfer your ROMs over to your phone. Wipe everything except for SD (thrice is my rule) and flash the ROM and reboot. First boot takes a while, sometimes 5-10 minutes

Thanks, I will try that! I was on the 4G screen for over 20 mins. I got worried once it went over 10 mins, but let it go. Then once 20 mins went by, I pulled the battery.
Guys, Just wanted to say thanks again! I was able to connect using USB Toggle, put a new ROM on, then flashed. Everything went OK this time around. I spent some time on it while doing my work (I was at work haha) but enjoyed tinkering and learning another device. The quick responses saved me, otherwise my co-worked would of went home phone-less rather then happy. Have a good one guys!

HTC EVO Bootloop

Hey guys, quick question.
My friend has an HTC EVO on Spring. Not rooted, nothing. It's completely stock. It just started acting weird. I pulled the battery and it went into bootloop. When i press the volume rockers + on button it will boot into recovery mode? if thats what it's even called.
After a while of bootlooping the phone shows an image of a phone with a triangle with an exclamation point in it.
Any help?
I've got an infuse, so i'm ok with flashing and rooting and whatnot, i jsut dont know how to reset the HTC.
Sounds like an ota update that was interrupted or a bad ota update
Try this.
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Sup...51.1_Radio_2.05.00.06.10_release_CL195459.exe
Its the original RUU. I think you need HTC Sync to use it. I could be wrong seeing I don't have an EVO.

I started with the basics and wiped the phone data and it booted right up. Now lets see if it stays running...
Just for future reference, is there a way to completely wipe the phone (rom and all) and start fresh?
On the infuse platform we use ODIN. Not sure if there is something similar on the EVO

On the evo you use a RUU it returns you to complete stock no recovery no root but you will still be s-off. RUUs can be flashed through fastboot or renamed and flash in the bootloader

If you have a card reader you can transfer it to the sdcard or use your phone transfer it to the sdcard and put the sdcard back in the evo
