Help! Stuck at htc logo - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I spent all night downgrading to froyo, when I was finally at 2.2 I used the visionary method to get temp root, that worked fine, when I tried to get permanent root I couldnt get s-off so I started following another guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835777
I followed all the steps and when I typed in reboot the phone rebooted and got stuck at the htc screen. I tried to turn it on with vol- and power and go into recovery but I got a black screen with a phone and error message, then it rebooted back to the htc screen and is still stuck there.
Please help! this is my only phone and I need it fixed asap
Thanks in advance!

can you enter bootloader? what does it show?

There have been numerous warnings over the past year about Visionary that I have to ask this question: Why oh why did you use it? Rage is a much safer method than Visionary and won't brick your phone at all (rooted three G2's with Rage/Gfree).

by the time i got back to 2.2 it was almost 4am and i just wanted to get it done i followed the first thread i found.
Yes i know i made a mistake but any help would be apreciated

what is ?
what is your main problem

the problem is it wont load past the htc logo screen

Get a copy of the 2.2 PC10IMG.zip and reboot into your bootloader (Vol. Down + Power). If the bootloader can flash it, you should be able to boot normally. Go to the CyanogenMod Wiki and root using Rage/Gfree.

is there gonna be a problem since i have s-off

I put the PC10IMG.zip in the root of the sd card, turned the phone on (vol- and power) it found the image, there was a loading bar to the right, and then nothing happened after the load. Im still at the same bootloader and if I reboot it is still stuck at the htc screen

Okay, go back into your bootloader and flash the latest ClockworkMod recovery via Fastboot.

I assume I can find the directions on how to load clockwork through fastboot on here. If that does work and I can go into recovery would I be safe to flash a custom rom at that point

Since I will only have time to work on the phone tonight after work and I need it for tomorrow are there any other possible solutions to my problem or would flashing clockwork through fastboot be it?

For fastboot to flash recovery, the image needs to be on your comp. Open up your computer's Terminal, cd to the directory it's in, and type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (without the quotes).
Sent via smoke signal.

nevermind got it
for people that are curious:
have the recovery.img (correct one! this was my problem) in the tools folder of the android sdk, open command prompt from that folder (hold shift and right click)
then run this command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
also phone has to be in fastboot (vol- and power, then select fastboot)
I finally have recovery!
Im gonna try to load a rom now!

It worked! my phone is alive!
Thank you all for your help!

Download cwm 2.5.1.3 rename it recovery.img put it to your platform-tools directory there should be fastboot.exe file also. That all should be done on your pc where adb shell is installed. Connect your phone to usb after putting it to fastboot. Then check if it is recognized by typing adb devices after changing to platform-tools. If it is then type: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
It should flash it. Then try going in to recovery from fastboot. If succeded try: adb push "rom".zip /mnt/sdcard
Place whatever rom you DL-ed instead of "rom" and proceed with CWM.
And about 2.5.1.3 there is a link to download it in leedroid-2.2.3 thread. I think you shoud inzip it to get recovery. img
And there is some kind of time bug on DHD so may be leaving it without battery for more than 8 hours and then doig all recovery manipulation, just a thought
And may be you should reflash bootloader also, I just don't know the proper steps.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I have the same problem
impossible have recovery mode
I flashed the cmw with fastboot, as said by kgulruh, but nothing... arggg!
Then it may be corrupted eng-hboot if I spell it right. Try to flash it also with fastboot. But don't do it without reading extensively first.
I never fiddled with bootloader myself so may be wrong.
Try leaving without battery first cause after march 27 it caused a lot of trouble to many of us rooted dhd owners. It will restore bootloader to the default state. Read about it in Q&A or general about CM7 restarted issue
Don't worry after all you not bricked it yet if it can go to fastboot it is still alive.
Good luck
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
There is one last resourt, and it is reflash the stock rom, what I mean is download ruu for your device 1.32 put it by adb push to the root of sdcard but rename it to something like PD98IMG before pushing. And after restart hboot will autoseek that file and if found will reflash the phone to the default factory state. Then you can proceed whith rooting all over again.
But read appropriate threads before doing anything. Ask questions if unsure

The problem for me is that I can flash the ruu 1.72 in fastboot mod
but the phone restart and stay blocked to the htc screen
i changed several times of sd card, but always the same htc screen...
Pullout the battery and after a while when putting it in hold vol-.
If it is autorestarting it should go to fastboot.
My dhd had been restarting and only way to go to fastboot was what I write earlier. But at least mine loaded correctly but never switched off.

mine load to fastboot mod too
i launch after instalingl a new rom, phone stay blocked on htc screen
I pull out the battery but nothing different
So you can go to the bootloader? What do you see there? Post what you see pls, should be something like ACE PVT ENG S-OFF at the first line. Post the whole text, this would maybe help to figure out whats causjng your problem

[Q] Can't Reboot into Recovery in CWM

I rooted my phone using the method that iamcquinn used:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928160
I've got S-Off and Titanium Backup verifies that my root is okay.
I've flashed CWM into 3.0.2.4. After that, I tried to run Reboot into Recovery.
After that, I get stuck on the HTC logo screen of the G2 and it's stuck there.
What's the problem that I'm experiencing here, and how can I solve it?
Thanks
Install ROM Manager from the Market and reflash the recovery image from there.
Sorry, forgot to mention that I flashed it through ROM manager. I've reflashed once and got the same result.
Also, when I boot up my phone with the Power key + Volume down, a couple lines flash up before I get to the menu. The only thing I could make out was that some image couldn't be found. Does that have anything to do with it?

It could be that it isn't a "problem"; give us the text which is displayed on your device while booting up. It could give us a clue about the "problem" you have. You do have ENG HBOOT and S-OFF on your boot screen?

The phone reboots; the videos that I've seen have the phone boot into recovery mode after about 5-10 seconds, but mine never gets there. It just stays on the htc screen.
what about adb? are you able to connect to your phone using adb?
if you got s-off you can
fastboot flash recovery
and see that gives you recovery, and able to boot into it

[Q] HTC Desire Recovery Problems

Hello
I have a small problem to get to the Recovery, every time I try to get the Recovery mode, it keeps getting an error, I want to upgrade it to android 4.0 for HTC Desire, and I have Android 2.3 on it now.
Could anyone please help me.
Thanks in advance

Get s-off and flash custom recovery (4ext)
In short. You don't have recovery, it's not an error.
Guys I have a similar problem (i think), I bought this used. I have an s-off boot screen with the Joker on it and have clockworkmod 5.02.. recovery plus a .90 Hboot on. It was on cm7 or sth and when ive tried flashing ics sense and supernova, Im stuck on that screen.
I've to take off my battery then insert it back to go to recovery. Volume down+power aint working for me, looks like the whole (-) button is messed up.
Kindly point me in the right direction. Thanks

Usually from the recovery-thread.
But if you want to flash 4EXT-recovery, you do not need an img-file. Just download the 4EXT Recovery from thread (free) or from Play Store (paid, for donation), start the app and follow instructions.

After downloading the fastboot-files, you can extract them and then start CMD in Windows, switch to the extracted folder and you can run ADB / Fastboot just fine [at least for Windows, for Linux / Mac it's a little more complicated (see the guide jn my sig)]. So it's not really a "stand-alone"-program.

[Q] HTC One V VM CDMA Boot Loop Help

Hello, I am In serious need of some help.
My problem is that my device boots up to the HTC logo with the red writing then the lightning bolt shows and the short boot video plays but the sound is all distorted and cuts out half way through. Then it reboots. This is an endless and annoying cycle so I hold power + volume down and run fastboot to get the shutdown option.
Here is what I did.
I was trying to root my device so I unlocked the bootloader. I then was going to use r1-primo-cdma-superboot.zip but my computer was having trouble downloading the file and I ended up getting redirected to Tweaked Stock Boot.img I then flashed the device with fastboot and that .img file and got a broken phone as a result.
Since then I have tried many things including the RUU but I wasn't sure what one to use so I tried multiple RUU files that sounded right however I kept getting "error 115 : Unknown Error" when trying to recover.
I am more than happy to provide any information and I understand some is needed to properly diagnose the issue but I am not sure what information is needed or how to access it.
Also I downloaded PACman v15.3 primoc inyourface09.zip and flashed the kernel. Before I did that I only got the HTC boot image on startup. After flasing the kernel the boot loop included the lightning bolt and short boot video with distorted sound. I could not flash the ROM though because the "/sdcard" dir is an internal directory and the actual sd card dir is "/sd-ext" so the bootloader cant do it. I also tried sideloading the PACman.zip with "adb sideload PACman.zip" with no luck.
Sorry to just throw all this out there but I really don't know what else to do I have been trying to figure this out for 3 days straight lol so I look forward to hearing any advice at all.

Yes I did try that but it didn't work. I think the problem is that I don't have a ROM but I also have no way of flasing the ROM to the device because the sdcard mounts as "/sd-ext" but the bootloader will only look in "/sdcard"
Thanks anyway lol

I can access the recovery via the bootloader but as I mentioned the bootloader tries to find the .zip file in "/sdcard" and my sdcard mounts to "/sd-ext" also when I try to sideload via adb all I get is the adb help screen. Its like adb sideload <filename.zip> isn't the right command.

Sorry but this sdcard and sdext is confusing, access the recovery and try to install zip from sd card (or sd ext), always put the roms in your micro sd, if from the recovery you can see the rom, then you have no problem at all. Once you install the rom, you go in the bootloader and flash the kernel, but not from the recovery, you flash it via fastboot.

Ok this makes sense. So from what I can tell the device was soft bricked and the /sdcard would not mount. I saw a fix that required the stock recovery but I couldn't get it to work however I did fix the issue by flashing the TWRPrecovery.img and formatted to ext3. Now I can flash ROMs but they keep bootlooping.
The new ROM boots up and about 2 minutes after everything is done it reboots. I have tried a few different ROMs and always wipe the data and everyhting but I cant find any answers.
Any Ideas?

[Q] [HELP] Performed wipe, accidentally rebooted before flash. Bricked?

Running CWM 3.x.x from DHD release
Downloaded CWM 5.8.1.5 zip and 'flash' using install zip util on 3.x but when I went back into recovery it was still 3.x
Didn't realise it was 3.x so I wiped then full wiped etc, then realised 3.x so ran 5.x install again
Decided to reboot to make sure 5.x had installed BUT I hadn't yet flashed a ROM on!
Stuck at HTC screen, have a broken 'DOWN' button so I can't boot into recovery and I can't get into Android and reboot to recovery for obvious reason
Please please can someone help? I just need to get back into recovery to flash.
If it helps, I'm on OS X but I have access to Windows and iirc Ubuntu

So to clarify. You tried to flash the CWM5 recovery.zip from CWM3 recovery, but it failed? You could try to fastboot flash the recovery.img from your computer. Also, are you S-On or S-Off?
To reboot into recovery connect to computer and from cmd type "adb reboot bootloader."

My volume down button is broken so I can't access anything on the device. Yes I tried to flash 5 from 3 and it failed.
I'm fairly sure I'm s off. When I rooted etc I used the phone only method so I didn't need adb. Will I need to download anything?
