Hey all,
I am running leedroid 3.0.5 on a HTC Desire and I want to install another ROM. I went to run bootloader by turning the phone off, holding down the lower volume button while hitting the power button. The phone is just restarting but in a quicker than normal mode. I have tried this a few times and it is still the same. I tried also hitting the power button and then holding down the lower volume button - this just brought up the HTC logo and the device was delayed for several minutes.
Can anyone tell me what is going on or what I can do?
How to explore each menu in the settings after u install a new rom?
Settings/applications/disable fast boot

Hey. Anyone else have any idea's? I turned off the setting as you suggested but it is still not working.
Takea out the battery. Wait few secs. Put back. Hold POWER + VOL DOWN.
Pull battery and try again. If it doesn't work then it may be that your volume button is acting up. If that is the case, pull battery and press power while holding down the back button. This will bring you to fastboot menu. From there select the first option to enter bootloader.

Thanks guys. I got it working by pressing the back button instead of the volume down button.

Sorry if this is a noob question but how do you get into hboot. I just got the evo came from a rooted hero. I understand that the new evos have not been rooted yet. I have powered on the evo and held down the volume up and down keys, and it just makes my evo boot up faster.
Turn the phone off.
Pull the battery.
Hold down Vol Down button
While still holding the Vol Down button, put the battery back into the phone
Continue to hold the Vol Down button until you are in the boot loader
Thank You that worked.
No problem! Glad that worked for you.
Without the battery pull, you just need too change your fastboot selection to off in settings, then you can power down, and use the button method
Hi,
I'm trying to root my HTC One V following this tutorial, but got stuck after succesfully unlocking bootloader. I got to point 18., then confirmed unlocking and the phone turn on. Then screen where you type your pin apeared. So I hold down POWER button and choose to turn off the phone. When it's turned off I press VOLUME DOWN and hold and then press POWER and hold but the phone always just turns on istead of going to HBOOT. Now I have no idea what to do and I don't want to try things on my own because I might brick it or something. Help me please

hold power button for approximately 10 seconds. you will see out hardware keys at the bottom of the screen start to flash and then your screen will turn off.
as soon as your screen turns off, release the power button and then hold down the volume-button.
this will boot you into bootloader mode.

I am not a total noob. I have always done my research and I am well versed with the procedures but this has me stumped. About six months before I had installed Omega ROM (told you i wasn't a noob) and things were fine and dandy. I was running today and bam! my phone just enters into a bootloop (lost my data on endomondo too). But hey! I am an expert right? or so i think to myself and I try getting into the recovery mode / download mode. I press the volume down, power and home button. The warning comes up and all that i have to do now is to press the volume up key right? wrong!! Inspite of pressing the volume up key the bootloop continues. I dont know what i am doing wrong. I am sure it is a really silly thing but i am not able to figure it out myself. I read the posts and all of them deal with other issues. Can someone help me?
Can someone check this up for me? Switch off your phone and try going into the recovery mode by pressing only the vol. down button and the home button pressed together. If it does not show the warning screen prior to the recovery mode then it would mean that my power button is malfunctioning. It would take just two minutes of your time. Please post your results here. Please.
If you press just the volume down and home button not a lot happens not the warning screen anyway. When I boot into recovery I have to wait for the Samsung logo to appear twice or it just reboots. Might be worth pressing all 3 buttons and wait for the 3rd restart before letting go
Edit
It's volume up home and power for recovery if you get download mode and volume up the phone just reboots hence why you go back to bootloop

The problem is solved. It turned out that it was not a boot loop after all. The power button got pressed and was stuck in that state thus causing repeated reboots. It was by pressing the volume down and home button without pressing the power button that i figured out that the power button was stuck. So i took out the screws and adjusted the band slightly and now alls well.
I was flashing a new rom yesterday. But during flashing, the recovery 'hang'ed. I pressed the power button for a few seconds, it restarts to the htc quietly brilliant screen. Now I can't access bootloader or recovery using Power + Vol buttons. Please help

Turn off the phone completely press power button for about 10-15 sec then try with 1. volume down and then press power button no way to not go in bootloader. The hangs on the recovery can't broke your phone.

Still can't go to bootloader. I tried different ways. Press the power button then the vol down button. Press them at the same time. Vol down first then power button. Still stuck on the same screen even after I pressed it for minutes

After half an hour, now I can go into bootloader! What to do next ?
Edit: I flashed a new recovery. Flashed a new rom. Now all is back to normal. Thanks for your help.:good:
I was excited to wait a new ROM since in a couple of days ago, when I turn on my phone the HTC white screen is stuck when I attempted to install the new ROM (4.2.2). Even pressing the power button, volume buttons and bottom slides won't work.
Is there a chance to repair my phone?

read post #6 and when you are in bootloader flash recovery and then rom
Hi,
I was on open bootloader, S-On, TWRP and root. For the Stage fright update 4.19.161.13 (Vodafone) i reinstalled stock recovery and applied the OTA. It rebooted twice and gut stuck at One logo for an hour, so i shut it down by pressing Power + volume up. Now it doesn't boot. When i press Powe + Volume up then the One logo appears for a few seconds and then i get a black screen, but when i plug the one into my pc, the pc says mtp-device. Unfortunately i cant get into the Bootloader or Fastboot. Does anyone has advice for me? Thanks in advance.
Hold power and volume up and when the screen goes black you switch the volume to down. Keep the power button pressed at all times and hold these combos until you see the bootloader. Works flawlessly......if it doesn't it's your timing that's off
I'm on vodafone too and had the same problem.
Just follow MrHofs advise to get the screen back.
I have to restore from TWRP to get the phone running.
the update still comes up on my phone now but I'm not going to apply it until I now kow.
Thanks, it worked. The screen wasn't actually black, but on and just really dark gray. In a dark room I could see when it's reaaly off and the press Power + Volume down.
Try this....
