First off I know i am not bricked. I can still get to recovery, bootloader, and I actually can boot into my rom. The probably is that I cant get past the setup wizard it keeps force closing. I am on Energy sense 3.5. I would do a nandroid restore but Im on twrp 2.0 and it can not read my sd card. Anyone know how to either past the setup wizard or get my sd card to work.
You can go hardcore. Change your Recovery to Amon Ra, wipe everything except SD Card, and reflash

How can I do that. I cant get anything to my SD Card
Take your SD card out and put it in a card reader put amon ra recovery zip on it and boot into the boot loader and let the boot loader flash it

Do that, or run the sd card fix from fastboot, using adb.

Hopefully the issue is only with the recovery and not with the bootloader which should still detect the SD card with a PC136IMG.zip on it. So find RA recovery on its bootloader format (PC136IMG.zip) and put it on the root of the SD and boot to bootloader (power + vol down), it should detect it and flash it.

If you can get to recovery, you can toggle USB on, or whatever TWRP calls it and it'll connect to your computer.
So I ended up unrooting because when I tried to change recoveries it would find the pc36 but it wouldn't let me update. It would say checking but it would take me back to the bootkoader. My sd card still does not show up. And my usb does not work. It wont charge unless I turn it off. I tried to use fastboot to get sd card to working but it when I put in that code from calukin s thread it says failed((status malformed 1 bytes)). Something like that. I'm still on 2.2 with update 3.70 is it anyway rerooot without my USB

If your problem is a loose USB port, they should replace it if there's no user damage. I had one replaced for free with a broken charging port as it's a known issue.

If there is no evidence of rooting your device or moddifying hardware/software (or they can't tell), no water damage, and they can't fix it for you over the phone or in the store.
However they may try to give you a downgrade... just speak to a supervisor if they do.

I need help, a friend of mine has a mytouch slide that was rooted but he flashed the wrong rom using rom manager. He flashed a htc hero rom by mistake. This rom boots it up but the wifi, bluetooth, calling as well as the mounting of the sd card don't work. I then tried to flash it back to stock using esprimg.zip on the bootloader. It loads but once it gets to the part where it checks it, it suddenly stops and goes back to the options on the bootloader.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Try deleting the esprimg.zip file from root of sd card. Get phone into clookwork recovery and flash new rom. Make sure you wipe first.
That's the thing, the phone isn't mounting or detecting the sd card. Which means that I can't access clockwork mod. So I resorted to esprimg.zip, and it loads fully but when it comes to the checking esprimg.zip part, it just goes back to the bootloader screen instead of asking to update or not.

Mounting the phone to the PC isn't the root problem. He can't get the phone to detect the SD card at all so how is he suppose to load a ROM from ClockWorkMod?
@OP, so hboot picks up that there is a ESPRIMG on the SD card and then fails the check or does it not even say that it's detecting the ESPRIMG?
It detects it, then fails at the checking part

Since you say it wont boot. Try downloading http://de.codeplex.com/
If link fails its called droid explorer. Basically you can get into the memory card without it being mounted. Yes it needs to be pluged up but this should help. Even if it cant be read. And if the card cant be read using this then maybe its the memory card?
Do you have a 1gb memory stick or 4gb?
I fixed it, I loaded esprimg again and right after it loads and then fails. I go to recovery and aply update.zip, which then finally gets it into clockwork mod, thank you to all that helped and for those with the same problem, try it this way

My Evo will not go into recovery mode. It goes to the white screen, goes black, and vibrates 5 times. I am trying to switch over from CM7 to MIUI because my phone has recently been randomly rebooting and not turning back on unless I take out the battery and leave it out for awhile. I tried to install an updated version of clockwork but it still will not work.
EDIT: Also now when I connect my phone to my computer via usb and turn on storage and I click it it says Application Not Found.
I'm assuming our holding the volume down button and power at the same time? Let us know the steps you've taken so far. I would recomend Amon Ra over Clockwork but regardless it shouldn't have an effect on what your going through.. Sounds like the kernel didn't like your phone though on the rom. But if holding down power and volume down at same time doesn't get you into recovery .. I'm not sure what else to try.

I can get into H-Boot(I think it's called) but I cant select recovery within that so I can do a nondroid and install the new rom. I also have installed Amond Ra.
EDIT: Now it seems that my SD is corrupt, today is just not my day.
Does anyone have any ideas for what I could do to fix this? I tried using google but I had no luck.
If hboot is working try reflashing you recovery. Follow the "bootloader way" in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705026
If your card says corrupted, try using a card reader in your computer and formatting to Fat32, full format, back-up your info if possible, mine has done that a few times and thats what i had to do to fix. Also, try putting your phone back to stock and start over. If you need some help or steps feel free to ask, I would be more than happy! I have a few methods I do if things don't go as planned.

Now the phone will boot up and then immediately shut down. Does anyone know what I did? I haven't touched anything since I flashed CM7 over 2 months ago.
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.

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

Awesome, Thanks!
Just this morning I was running CM7 on my Evo. I wanted to return to stock. I think i messed up the name of my backup and it was saying not md5 sum. I looked up how to generate a new md5 sum. So I tried restoring my backup and it it couldn't find my boot.img. I tried flashing CM7 again but it just took mr back to Clockworkmod when I rebooted. I don't know what to do now. Please help!

First, use smelkusmod recovery.
Clockwork is the worst recovery for the EVO. Why you ask? It's been known to not wipe properly on the EVO, in turn giving you problems on than newly flashed ROM. After you get done with that, try again, or flash a different rom

Yes there is a way. Connect to your computer via usb. While in recovery, go to mount usb-ms or something of the sort, and that lets you look in the sdcard in window's so you can put a new Rom on there

Or if you have a card reader, just put the card in the reader and plug the reader into your PC. Download the Smelkus recovery and whatever ROM you want, then put your card back in your phone. You can install the new recovery through the bootloader so long as the recovery file is named PC36IMG.zip. After installing the new recovery you can go into recovery, wipe everything and install the new ROM.

Ok, so this is probably a stupid question, but the last time I tried to do a factory reset on my phone and install and format a new sd card I ended up soft bricking my phone and I don't want that to happen again because I don't have a computer at my house. But...if I'm running stock JB 4.1.2 flashed thru odin, rooted, and I have TWRP installed can I change sd cards without a problem? Or, are there files on my current sd card that the phone needs to read the recovery or root or whatever? Thanks.

I may be wrong but I'd say you need your SD card with your recovery on it to be in your phone.. I've never really tried removing the SD card.. Good question tho.

Thanks! That's exactly what I was thinking but I needed a second opinion. I am wanting to switch sd cards bc I've got way too many pictures on it and I really don't have time to borrow someone's computer and sit down and go thru what I to keep, then organize them all and put them on disc....so I was hoping to just start fresh on a new card for now, but it doesn't look like it's gonna be that easy. So, would I have to put the new sd card in my phone then flash the recovery via odin? Or would I have to reflash the stock Rom or what? Any suggestions?

I don't know what to tell you. I have no problem switching SD cards. Did it earlier today.
My guess would be to make sure to have either twrp or what ever recovery you use on the new SD card you want to use.

When you flash a recovery it is installed to your phones internal memory. Not to the external SD card.
