Desire restart loop after installing "Leave Devil Alone".
Can anybody please help to solve the problem, I just want to keep my user data (SMS & whatsapp...etc)
Thanks very much in advance. My case details as follow.
Desire stock 2.2 unroot.
1. Installed Leave Devil Alone (free) from Market and the notification of storage shortage appeared.
2. Moved the App (13.xMB) to SD and it showed itself used 4xxKB space.
3. Generally, it should free the storage to 17MB and clear the notification msg. But it doesn't, it shows 3MB storage left.
4. Tried to reboot device. Restart loop occured. Restart for N times, black screen, keys light keep on and no response. Remove battery to turn off.
5. Restart details: normal start animation (quietly brilliant with sound)
>> unlock the screen can see...Sense loading/loaded, then 10-20 error msg popping out: "xxx(i.e htc.gb/ googlemap.com/ gmail ...etc) force close"
>> restart again itself...for N times, "SYSTEM, force close/ wait", no matter tab FC/wait, screen comes black and no response.
Use your warranty and call HTC/ your provider.
Your stock ... so no backup??? Not sure what else you think could be done?
Not sure HTC can help to fix. But sure they don't keep my data...
Is it possible to root it now?? And then make a backup for my data??
Thanks again for help....

To say if it's possible in your situation to root, we need information from hboot. You get there if you turn the phone off, hold and press first the volume down and then the power button. After a few seconds, you come to a screen with three androids at the bottom. Post the information which is top left here.
Thanks bro~ Here's the info.

So you can use unrevoked to get root or you can use revolutionary to get s-off and root in two very easy steps. Their documentary sites gives you all important information.

it starts to reboot specially when i start using any navigation program which means the GPS
After tried several rooms, radios and kernels nothing changed!!
then i start search in the internet until someone told me that problem is kind of USB bricks
so the solution is to copy some files to SD and write some lines in terminal emulator, so when i tried this i get access denied !
after that i decide to do S-OFF and try USB bricks solution
the process of S-OFF did not complete successfully and my phone gives me black screen with some instructions to do S-OFF process agine to fix my phone .
i tried to do it many times using different PCs but the black screen still there
finally, i use RUU (RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed)
to restore my phone and it works ... now i can't root my phone and it is reboot when it reach 37 degrees >> from stability test
i have used unrevoked with some ICE on the battery to prevent it from rebooting
but the result was : " is your firmware too new? " also i have used GengerBreak but the result was " NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENS HERE BUT REBOOT AND CHECK IF SUPERUSER IS THRER"
please help me !!!
If it is rebooting as a result of it reaching certain temps then send it to HTC to get it fixed.
so it is hardware problem ? isn't it ?
Sounds like a hw problem, but not the no root part newest unrevoked should work fine for you.
But while it is on a stock rom just send it in an complain about it rebooting, and you will get a completely new phone Then you can do the rooting via unrevoked.
Hello G2 Forum users/developers.
I used ROM Manager today to upgrade Virtous Radio.
After this, my Tmobile G2 goes into perma loop. I get the HTC "quietly brillant" screen.
However, it would be in some sort of perma loop.
I am super newbie. I used this forum to unlock a few phones. I have ADB at home.
When I plug my unit/G2 into my computer via USB
and type "adb devices", this is what I get:
"SH12PR208475 recovery"
QUESTION:
What in the world do I do from here on?
BACKGROUND:
I have downloaded a bunch (5-7 different) of ROM via Rom Manager. The phone was acting up a bit, in that it would sometimes not go into Recovery Mode from ROM Manager menu. I would select it; it would turn off and then blank screen. To solve this problem, I would remove battery and turn it back on. This would remedy the situation.
After updating the radio via Rom Manager (choosing Virtous (Free) one), the phone appears to be "Brick like".
Please help. Thank you.
If you are local vancouver, pls call 604 838 5805. Thanks again

Im confused about how you updated your radio via rom manager.
But im wondering if you flashed the virtuous unity rom and you have the G2 Hboot.
If this is what you did your device is not bricked.
Can you tell me exactly what you flashed.
And pull you battery out, put it back in and then press and hold the power button and volume down. This will take you in to the bootloader. Can you let me know what it says the top 2 lines of that screen.
Also from the bootloader you can access recovery, using to volume keys to navigate and the power button to select
Also the latest version of clockwork mod recovery has some issues when you try to boot directly in to it. You can either use an old version of cwm or have a look at 4ext recovery in the dev section

Hello there. Thank you for replying. I just remember I did something silly last night. I downloaded a something called "ASTRO File Manager" via Market, using the search protocol "file manager".
I then used this program to delete "su" (super user), and one called "Super User" (the ones with the crossbones I think).
This morning, I used ROM Manager; there is a "premium" section and there is a "free" section. I used the second one, the 'free' section. At the end, they had "Virtuos" ROM(wrong spelling I think). In the subsection, there is a "Radio Config" or "radio" something. I clicked onto this. It downloaded. Then it told me to say OK to install. It did all of that. Then the screen went blank, as it should, because it was being auto booting. After that, nothing. Just a loop of "HTC" and then "quietly brilland" after that.
I had not mentioned about the deleting of 'su' file and 'superuser' [crossbone] before because I had forgotten it.
Right now, when I use ADB on my computer, I see the device name and besides a series of numbers is the word "recovery"
Like this:
C:\ANDROID\G2\MISC>adb devices

OK, can you access recovery via the bootloader. If you can you just need to either restore a back up. Or do a full wipe and flash a new rom.
The file you tried to flash was it radio to ril auto matcher?
And as you are rooted anything to do with super user on your phone is absolutely essential.

Sir. I have no idea how to restore a back up or how to do a full wipe. I would prefer to do a full wipe but again, I have no idea how to begin. I follow instruction on XDA here and managed to unlock and root 1. HTC TMOBILE G2 and 2. HTC TMOBILE 3G and the 3G Slide.
I think I can follow instruction; having said that, there is a huge huge amount of information on here and I am not sure where to start. Please help.

I believe I did this; this morning I did this.

Yes, the phone was unlocked and rooted. I used the intruction on the Wiki portion of XDA Forum.
Please reply at your convenience. Thank you again for taking the time out to help me. Thank you, thank you and more thank yous (from Vancouver BC Canada)

PROBLEM FIXED
This is what I did. Some is due to reading replies above. Thank you CJWARD23
Some I just played around. Not sure what happened, but I think it is better I post something here since I already spent enough bandwidth above.
When I tried to get the phone back to the Bootloader screen in order to do a "backup and restore", all I got was a black screen, with a "HAT" and an orange curvey ARROW.
I was freaked out and scared. The screen had "reboot" and a series of things you can do, ie wipe the cache, wipe the davik cache; I am not sure if this is a bootloader screen or not. But I wanted to get the the "backup and restore" function. Well, when I push the power button to execute this command, I got the HAT and ORANGE ARROW.
This is why I posted this post on here.
Since I unlocked and rooted the phone using intruction on here (XDA), I went back to my old files on my desk top.
Because I had used "Astro File Manager" the night before to delete "su" file aka superuser file, as well as the file with the crossbones (Super User).
Please dont ask me why I did this. We in the recovery world calls it a temporary lapsed of insanity.
Anyhow, I used ADB on desktop to put back SU and SUPERUSER
then i went back to do the powerdown and power button, to get at the recovery screen
i then had the same HAT and ARROW deal
this time, I use the button on my g2, it is not the power button, it is the one with the glowing light (when you receive a call), it is actially the only button on the surface of the phone, it is below the screen. that one. i push that button to exectute. I got a list of all my old ROMS, i click onto one and walla..... recovery
I am still not sure what I did wrong, or what I did right. I just know that I had a lot of help from the gentleman/gentlewoman above - mr/mrs CJWARD23
and in the mean time, i did a lot of praying and did a lot of reading on here as well as trying this or that.
If I were you, try to avoid deleting SU, su, or anything with da crossbone. Laughs.
I hope this helps. Have a nice day from Vancouver BC Canada. 1422hrs/pacific standard time.
Howdy y'all.
I thought I would make my first post in here, since this is the entire reason I found xda-dev in the first place
I have a WFS from T-Mobile that was constantly giving me low-memory errors and FC's of T-Mobile's bloatware. I was tired of it, and decided to do something about it. I unlocked the bootloader via htcdev, flashed Clockwork Mod recovery, and installed WildChild 3.3 ROM as my first adventure into rooted androids.
My first impression of it was "meh". I had grown accustomed to the Sense stuff, and WC3.3 just didn't seem as polished. I haven't quite figured out where the logs are, or I'd attach them for the few bugs I found. The first one I discovered, if I go into settings, then "Personalize", it goes right back to the home screen.
Bug #2, I can't remember the name of the app but it was one of the two file managers. Root Browser Lite is still on the phone, so it's the one with the file cabinet icon. It would FC as soon as it opened, so I uninstalled it.
Another bug that popped up today - I was multitasking by running the stopwatch in the clock app (timing the chicken on the grill :silly: ), listening to Pandora, and browsing Google Play looking for the battery app that shows which apps are using the battery. The phone locked up hard - no buttons, even the power button, gave any response. I had to remove the battery, which isn't easy in an Otterbox case.
I'm going to try and find the logs for tigger before I throw RobotoMod on it tonight, but I have a feeling I'm not going to find them.
You forget to mention invisible caller id picture during call receive . You can try dragon fire Rom or wait for kims mod supreme .
I didn't notice that because I don't use picture Caller ID. I'm an old phart - my first mobile phone had an lcd screen, and this is only my 4th phone ever
what type wilddire s? CDMA or GSM?
im on a VM Wildfire S (CDMA), i have found to get things working right on WC3.3 i have to use the hense mods Virgin Mobile Patch, also before i switched to the CWM Touch Recovery the first config seems to hang or crash cause of the use of Flash Player in startup somewhere. Sometimes it works better to start first, do config, then install Hense VM patch in recovery.
It's a T-Mobile GSM. I didn't use CWM Touch, and I never even tried the flash player. The phone worked, though - had no problems booting.
Im gonna stick with Wildchild 3.3 coz i can feel really good performance from my phone. My antutu score is 2101. i was under the impression that the caller Image not showing up was due to improper flashing. Yesterday, i was trying to use a live wallpaper, but It seems i cant select one even though i have it installed. and I also noticed that sometimes when you attend a call while the phone is locked and you drag the green call answering ball into the ring, the phone simply unlocked instead of answering and then i had to answer it by clicking on answer(like how you normally do it when the phone is unlocked). And one more thing, i am unable to play GTA 3. Now i can only hear the sounds...... the screen goes blank as soon as it loads. it was fine on all the other roms(though it was a bit laggy[cant expect too much on ARMv6]).
My wife has a Htc Wildfire S and i tried to install Wildchild 3.3
I ve done everything you said in the instructions but when it restasrts it stucks in the white screen with the green logo HTC.
When i press the power button and the left down i see this in my screen

I think that these are correct. CWM is version 5.0.2.6. When it starts its looking for a file named "PG76IMG.zip". This file does not exist. So i am doing this steps : Recovery --> Wipe data/factory reset (twice) --> Advanced --> Wipe Dalvik Cache (twice). Then i go back and i choose install zip from sd card --> toggle signature verification until i see Signature Check: Disabled. After that i choose the ROM i want to install. After the succes of the installation i reboot the system and it stucks in the white screen with the green logo HTC.
I have created partition in SD card. I have made an partition ext4 of 1,2 GB. Fat32, and primary
What am i doing wrong? Please i need your help!
Last week my Droid Incredible began to work more and more slowly. I attempted to reset it since it was working slowly (I believe because of the amount of data I had stored on the device). Although, as the phone began to load up it went into the infamous infinate boot loop. I have tried several things to get it to start up properly again. The biggest issue is that my mac doesn't recognize the device when connected via USB. So my question is, is there ANY way to have my phone start up normally without losing the data on my apps, photos, contacts, etc?

Whats your info?
Hboot version (locked or unlocked?)
Radio version
Android version
S-on or s-off
When you say reset it, you mean factory reset? From hboot or the settings menu in the os?
If you did a factory reset, your app data, apps, and contacts are already gone. A factory reset wipes these things. Your contacts should be backed up to google though and will restore when you fix the phone and log into google. Photos should be stored on the sdcard or emmc, which dosent get wiped unless you specificly choose to do so.
The possible fix depends on your info. Also does the phone vibrate more than once when booting?
I have the same problem, please help

Try running this ruu thru hboot http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.08.605.15/PB31IMG.zip. Download the file place it on yoir sdcard in no folders named exactly PB31IMG.zip. Then boot to hboot (with phone off hold vol down and power till a white screen appears, hboot). After a few secs hboot should automaticly find the file and prompt you to press vol up to install. When complete it will prompt to press vol up to reboot. Hopefully it will boot up normally. This will wipe the phone, but not the sd or emmc. If that does not work you will have to try to unlock the bootloader, which may be an issue if the computer cant see the phone.
Hello, need some help here.
I rooted my mums Wildfire S to get some extra internal memory. All was working except for widgets so stupidly I did a factory reset from privacy menu (my first root so putting it down to naivety) now the phone starts and I am able to go through the initial start-up steps like selecting provider, setting up wifi but then the phone gets stuck on the screen that says:
Loading...
it may take several minutes to complete, please wait
I had installed recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.8-marvel.img prior to rooting and have subsequently tried the recovery options power+Vol up, and the factory reset from the boot menu, have shown patience for several hours and no joy. But as the phone still sort of works I thought I would get some expert advice on how to fix before I break it any further
