I have posted this in the General section, however i think it should be here...
I'm updating a HTC Desire for a family member, the last rom installed was a villain 2.4 rom (it's been a while). I've updated the radio to the latest version ending in .23 and tried to flash the latest RunnymedeMod007, this is where I've encountered the problem. Im stuck on the opening HTC boot screen. And don't understand why, there's no reason for the freeze as far as i know. Should also note I've cleared every cache and wiped.
The second issue is that when there is a rom installed, the camera doesn't load and force closes.
Does anyone out there have any ideas why I've got these problems and could you help me out?
Cheers
have you wiped it a multiple times?
was sorted when I had the same problem

I've tried countless wipes and still ended up at the same point with the HTC screen.
I've followed the tutorial here; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275632 for the problem but still nothing.
Any suggestions?

Give details of Device and the method
I'll sum it up quickly for everyone, I'm not a desire user and simply don't understand the system of flashing, could anyone explain what I have to do in noob language? or a tutorial thread that explains it all would do. Thanks for the help by the way.

ok, got my desire a month ago unbranded
rooted with unrevoked and got clockworkmod running
tried to make a nandroid backup then the phone just went into a boot loop
i searched the web and apparently its happening with unrevoked desires alot and all you need to do is to apply the recovery you made
however, after applying the recovery, my desire just gets stuck on the white HTC bootscreen, left it for an hour and its still like that. can get into HBOOT and clockwork mod but dont know what to do now- i've tried everything- wiping partition, davlick cache etc.
Can someone please please please help me!! My desire is PVT4 S-ON, stock froyo sense rom, clockworkmod v2.5.07. What ROMS can i flash onto it cyanogenmod, leedroid, open desire etc? Any help will be very welcome.
Sorry if posted in wrong section, am new
Thanks
Just copy another Rom to the root of your SD, perform a complete wipe and then flash that.

sorry am pretty noob as you can tell, what kind of rom will i need? cyanogen, open desire?
thanks for the reply
That's up to you ... do you prefer sense or a sense free Rom? Go over to the development section and read up, there are many great roms to choose from. It's all down to preference at the end of the day.

And I assume you know how to flash a custom Rom. Only other advice I would give is remember to partition your SD card if you want to flash an ap2sd Rom

thanks so much, flashed clockworkmod and everything is working perfectly
so scared that i had bricked my desire

Have u factory reset cleared cache and also cleared dalvik?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Alright..
Firstly, reboot into recovery and wipe full data & the dalvik cache.
Second, flash a rom to which your device fulfills all requirements (eg. not D2EXT, D++)
Third, restart your device after installing the ROM.
Fourth, WAIT!!!!! if it doesnt boot after like 15 minutes then something has gone wrong somewhere.
Just to make things easy to start with, you should try using a rom that doesn't require an ext2/3/4 partition and just uses fat. Unless you are confident you can do that correctly.

thanks all ,after wipe partition and wipe data factory , worked with me.
this wipe partion deleted my ext partition also?

Seriously, you should do a little reading tutirials and guides on flashing.
You cannot flash a ROM with a different base on top of another - that's why the bootloops. (E.g. Flashing DHDport on top of Stock Rooted or GB on FROYO won't work without wiping).
Secondly, it is wiped it - ergo FORMATTED it, the ext partition is still there.

I understand that i have to see which radio can work with?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Listen, everybody's here to help each other. It's what we android users do.
A little of "Please", and "thank you very much", "you guys are great"... goes a long way...
As for the radio, the easiest would have been, to upgrade your stock system to Froyo 2.29 before running the ROM.
Stock, before a custom ROM. This would probably avoid any radio problems.
If your phone is working and you have no issues, then you shouldn't worry about it.
Some people, get a little angry, when the same problem happens over and over again, and there are posts to cover these problems.
But, I think most of us, will jump right in, and give a hand to those who ask politely. And give a big thanks, when the issue is fixed.
Oh, and all ROMs are not created to work with Desire...
After flashing a custom rom which I downloaded here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038195, my Desire keeps rebooting.
You see the AlphaRev screen at the begin and now it won't go on.
I recovered the phone and tried to install the custom rom again and it still keeps rebooting!
My phone is rooted and S-off'ed
Can anyone help me?
Maybe I did something wrong.. I've no idea.
I really appreciate any help!
Ps. I'm a beginner at root, flash etc.
(Sorry for my bad English)
Did you do a full wipe? Data and cache.
If yes, do you have a ext partition and did you check the tread, I believe there are more people with boot issues on the latest leedroid.

Yes I did both wipes, and yes I have a ext partition.
Unless it's ext4 (should be ext3) you need to starch the thread for solutions.

Maybe try a different rom temporarily? If it works, problem is with the rom file, if it won't, problem is with handset or SD? Maybe need to copy important stuff from SD to PC then reformat the card?
I just downloaded another ROM and it works fine.
I think the ROM I''ve downloaded had problems or something...
Anyway thank you guys, I really appreciate it.
This thread can be closed.
I have a problem as well, my phone keeps rebooting when I try to record video, I just had the damn Camera repaired
Was running oxygen but flashed stock. Still happening.
Will it need to go back for repair, sucks to go days without it.

yup bro i wiped data/cache, and also wiped dalvik cache, after that i installed rom, and through clockworkmod, not through rom manager
You might of just got a bad download, try downloading again.
Have you used superwipe. Might worth giving it a try and reflash the desire s rom. Get it from here http://db.tt/7xNYpFp

OK BRO..THANX FOR YOUR HELP...Right now device is at home...will re-download, and get back to you, my device is S-OFF, So using superwipe will not affect that? or i will have to re-root? give me the link of a guide for using superwipe if possible...once again thanks alot for your attempt to sort out my problem...
Superwipe won't remove s-off. Check out the origianl thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044992
It is a really good tool, I use everytime I switch roms and it does seem to make a difference.

Hi, I recently flashed a new rom from -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1250815 . After I booted the phone, the boot animation "quietly brilliant" appears and starts to repeat itself. The home screen/system would not even load. Is there a solution to this problem? Thanks.
I can't answer your question, but for the people that can you need to provide more info.. For example hboot info, s-on/s-off, method used to flash rom and anything you did prior to flashing the rom.
Swyped from my CM7.1 Desire using XDA Premium App
Thanks for your reply. My hboot version is 6.9.3.1002, s-offed using Revolutionary, rooted using unrevoked. My current Rom is CM7.0.3 - Desire. I flashed rom using cwm 5.0.2.0. Before I flash I wipe data and my dalvik cache.
Did you do a full wipe? Do u have the latest radio as suggested? Do you have the correct partition on your sd card?
Swyped from my CM7.1 Desire using XDA Premium App
I did everything correctly. I am unsure of my radio. Mine is 5.17.05.23. Is it the latest version? Thanks.
Yes that's the latest radio. This is where my experience ends unfortunately, someone else will have to pick up...
Swyped from my CM7.1 Desire using XDA Premium App
Thanks for replying. Now the problem is solved. However, there is a new problem. After the boot animation, a blank wallpaper just appears, with no icons. There is only a notification bar but that bar cannot be pulled down. It only says that my internal storage is almost full. What can I do now?
To be honest you're probably better off asking the question in the rom thread as I have no experience with that particular rom.. Sorry I couldn't help any further.

Have you flashed the stockhboot.zip? That should solve the internal memory issues
