Phone just started a bootloop cycle last night.
Boots up to white HTC Evo 4G screen then powers off and does it all over again.
Can get into bootloader, no recovery, it simply will not go. Just turns off and goes into bootloop cycle again.
Bootloader looks nasty -
hboot - 0.93
radio - 2.15.00.11.19
I've tried reflashing Amon RA as a PC36IMG (still can't get to recovery)
I've tried RUU install from windows (completes fine but phone still does same thing)
I've tried flashing radios for other devices (to brick, won't effing brick)
I've tried pulling battery 40+ times at different times of flashing images from bootloader
I'm about 2 minutes away from trying 2-4 second microwave bursts
Any ideas?
Sorry if wrong forum section
I tried to change the carrier of my newly bought HTC EVO 3g. When i tried to backup the NV Ram, the phone re booted and continues to reboot after reaching the logo screen. I can go to boot loader but recovery is not working. I tried flashing it with some PC36IMG.zip downloaded of web. The whole flash process goes without a glitch but still the problem ain't solved. I tried using RUU which gives bootloader version error. My phone has a locked boot loader ie still S-ON. I just bought it a week back. Any help would be greatly appreciated..
Hi, My problem is as follows:
If i remove battery and put it back and switch on the phone, it will get in a bootloop. I have to wait for around 1 hour so that phone boots normally. I took this opportunity to s-off my phone with revolutionary.
right now, i cannot get to recovery, if i go to recovery and press power button, phone will reboot. I even flashed a stock rom WWE v 2.29
Specs are as follows:
bravo pvt1 ship s-off
hboot 6.93.1002
radio:5.11.05.27
I flashed CW several times through fastboot it says ok but still am stuck in boot loop and cant get recovery.
i went to alpha rev and flashed stock boot image but still not success.
Any help will be highly appreciated
After 1 hour , i can get phone to boot normally. at that time i think i will be able to get an adb shell..if there are any resizing to be done please guide me.
I'm sure you have heard about this before but searching for 18hrs now and nothing is working.
Issue: Phone is f.....kd and stuck on the HTC BOOT SCREEN.
It was running Clockworks newest version and Tried the Unrevoked 3 for the last 5 days without a problem. Then all of the sudden the phone rebooted and I was left with " Hopefully not a dead phone. "
Bravo PVT4 Ship S-ON
HBoot - 0.93.0001
MicroP-51d
TouchPanel-Synto101
Radio 5.11.05.27
I don't know if the usb Debugging mode is on or off . I'm thinking off cause before the phone rebooted I was looking at settings and might of turned it off . Is there a way I can turn it back on from adb ?? or see if its atleast off ?
I can't get into the recovery as it just skips back to the HTC screen. I have tried erasing etc. with no go..
Help.. Please..
Thanks..

Pull the battery out then put back in then try booting into recovery. Then Go to Desire Q&A and look in the stickies section and read bortak's great guide

Well, problem wasn't fixed, but the phone was lost/stolen; so it's gone and now at least I don't have to worry about this
I've spent the last 6 hours attempting to fix it, after spending 3 hours getting it onto the new network.. Posting this finally as a last resort..
...My previous phone stopped working, so my father gave me his old Sprint HTC Evo 4G. Called Straight Talk, Sprint, Father, Father's Boss (business line, needed pet's first name), Sprint, Straight Talk, paid $15 fee, activated!! Messages come in, 3G data shows, call works.
Fixed!
After a few minutes, I restart the phone as suggested, and BAM!, it begins to restart, and restart, and restart. I decide it must be Sprint bloatware attempting to do Sprint things, so I must root, ROM, and de-bloat.. I was able to get Smelkus Recovery working and flashed Classic v0.1.0 ROM, but it still reboots in 3-5 seconds after successfully starting. I have yet to ninja-in Airplane Mode again, but will try more later as the battery is low (seems it may need to be reset/calibrated)
Please, any and all help would be very much appreciated.. I cannot spring for a new phone right now and I really need to get phone access back online.
Thank you for your time
FIXED
Well, things start to get worse.. Soon enough, it won't even get past the HTC initial power-on screen. I still have access to fastboot, but cannot access stock then Smelkus recovery (starts HTC startup screen loop), nor reach the Sprint start-up screen.
I successfully unlocked the HBoot via HTCDev, then began to attempt to get an actual start by trying to run a few old RUU (signature fails) and flashing manually as another suggested each partition (got boot, radio, userdata, then system.img data length too large).
Still stuck at HTC EVO 4G loop. My biggest obstacles are broken links to builds and lack of complete information about solutions..
Here is my Hboot info:
Code:
*** UNLOCKED ***
SUPERSONIC EVT2-2 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-2.18.0001
MICROP-041F

Maybe your device have a Odin-like software that could flash a firmware?

As far as I know, I can only fastboot flash at this time. I attempted earlier to install/flash a few RUU and OTA, via fastboot and the P6IMG.zip or something update method: both failed to authenticate. I saw another user mention flashing all specific partitions; but unfortunately, I don't have the files I need for that.
Back to the original problem
Luckily the Smelkus Recovery started working, and I did Super Wipe and flashed Classic v.0.1.0 ROM. It booted up successfully, but now continues to force reboot as soon as it starts up.This first started after a restart soon after activating it on Straight Talk. I once (before only Hboot was accessible) was able to quickly turn it onto Airplane Mode, and after it restarted it stayed on. I foolishly turned Airplane mode off after it had been on a while, hoping it had settled in: it immediately started rebooting again.
The phone had been on for several minutes, received messages, and made a call before I restarted it.. So I don't know why now it can't stay on..
Fixed, but now Battery Issues xD
Nailed it! Finally was able to quickly set Airplane Mode before it restarted. I then used the ROMs de-bloater to rid the system of all Sprint-related items: HTCSprintService, Sprint Hotspot, and several more. Also got rid of all the social networking bloatware, and a few other unnecessaries. I now can safely turn off Airplane Mode But, it seems the battery is juiced out, going from '100%' to dead in a 5 minute call. I'll let it fully charge and reset the battery stats, but I may just have to order a new battery.. Not the worst problem to have
Problem has returned! I've narrowed it down to 2 points: at start-up, 3-5 seconds after boot, and when I try to update the PRL. Any ideas on how to fix this? Originally, before I first restarted the phone after Straight Talk activation, I successfully updated my Profile and PRL, but now it seems to restart the reboot loop.
