[Q] can't run any new rom, hangs at white htc incredible screen on boot

I rooted the incredible using unrevoked, no problem.
Installed and ran root apps, no problem, backed up everything using titanium backup and rom manager (nandroid) and so forth, installed cw recovery 3.0.0.8.
When I install the skyraider 4 rom from rom manager, it reboots and installs, but then when it reboots again it hangs at the white htc incredible screen (and I've let it wait as long as a half an hour). I have to take out the battery to be able to reboot it.
I can boot back to recovery and then re-install and boot back to the stock rooted rom just fine. But I can't get a new rom installed and working.
I've looked at previous threads about this problem:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=739646
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=620621
and several other threads on other sites.
The only suggestions to come out of those, other that starting over from scratch (which I've done multiple times now), were to reformat the sd card, which I've also done, and to downgrade to cm recovery 2.5.1.2. Rom manager only shows versions as old as 3.0.0.5. I have put the PB31IMG.zip file on the sd card and loaded that before to help recover but I don't see how that helps with installing a new rom.
Any other suggestions? The main reason I even need a new rom is because bluetooth doesn't work in the stock rom (known issue: http://community.htc.com/na/htc-forums/android/f/91/p/2336/8570.aspx )

It sounds like you are not wiping cache and Davlik (in advanced). The constant reboot of the white screen is a classic symptom of not performing a cache and Davlik wipe

appreciate your help, yeah I've been doing that everytime in rom manager. I tried it several times manually in cm recovery, too, and still the white screen.
I'll just see if verizon can exchange it, or else I'll sell it for another phone with working bluetooth.

Might try reverting to the 2.5.1.2 recovery as I've heard the 3.x.x.x ones don't wipe consistently.

There is a flash of CWM 2.5 that temporarily lets you use that to flash the rom then when you reboot it will revert back. Try that.

True but I just don't want to give up, custom roms look so nice that I have to find out how to do it, if you find out before me just let me know I'll let you know if I do

hope this helps
i dont have htc desire( i had neo v) . but i faced the same problem once.
try wiping evrything off before installing the rom
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
wipe dalvik cache
Format /system (in mounts and storage)
Format /cache
Format /Data
good luck

did you factoryreset, delete cache, dalvic and battery stats befor you flashed the rom? it sounds like you are bootlooping.

first if your using cmw or rom manager to install from get rid of that CRAP!! If your s-off on stock rom get 4ext recovery installed on phone first. Then try installing custom from with it.
1. Factory wipe
2. Wipe cache
3. Wipe dalvik
4. Format partitions (except SD card)
5. Format SD card (optional for total wipe)(Only if you want full fresh install but copy everything on SD to PC so you don't lose important stuff)
6. Mount USB (should only see one folder called 4ext)
7. Move rom to SD card
8. Disconnect USB
9. Install from SD card
10. Choose zip from SD card
11. Flash
12. Reboot
All steps done from 4ext recovery so do not exit recovery till all steps are complete.

[Q] Desire keeps locking up...

Hi all.....
I have a rooted desire that is S-OFF,
I have flashed lot of ROMS (Im using CM7 partition)
and the phone just keeps locking and needs battery pulling,
mainly when i receive calls..??
Any suggestions or ideas I can try people???
Thanks for any help offered!!!!

1. give us more detail
2. boot into recovery, go to:
\mounts & storage
>format boot
>format system
>format data
>format cache
>format sd-ext
3. Reflash your ROM.
4. Does not work? Defenestrate your phone.

Thanks for reply,yes i always do a clean fresh install ,so i format SD and wipe Dalvik etc,im now thinking it could possibly be the radio as its not one of the latest....
But because im S-OFF i cant flash it in the normal way,If i flash back from Cm7r2 partition to the standard HBoot one, will i be able to flash the radio ZIP via Recovery again??
Many thanks..

or you could just flash the .img via fastboot.. it's much safer, there links to radios on my guide.. but it's unlikely it'd be the radio.. could give it a try though I suppose..

FIXED [Q] Stucked on boot after HBOOT change

Hi,
I am not new at flashing and modding but got stucked and need some expert help
Here is what I have done:
1. had hboot cm7r2 and Runnymede AIO ROM - Working great but decided to sell Desire
2. Changed HBOOT to Alfarev Sense, partitioned to ext3
3. Installed Leedroid 3.0.8. Sense ROM
4. Rebooted - after that can not go further than boot screen
I repeated procedure few time but still on boot screen
Any ideas ?!

Why don't you try the STOCK partition table because it has a bigger system partition size

Probably the best choice for you would be to restore stock HTC rom.
Just sayin...

did you format all partitions? aligned ext3?

Sounds like you did not wipe cache after changing Hboot and did not wipe anything when changing Rom. If you did that, the Leedroid Rom does not fit into Sense Hboot, so you have to change to Stock Hboot:
Wipe everything, flash hboot (do not forget to reboot bootloader and wipe cache afterwards) and then flash ROM again.

<PLEASE HELP> I Can't install any ROM on my Wildfire

Hi, thanks for reading..
I have a htc wildfire phone.
I S-Off-ed it with revolutionary, and also flashed Clockwork 3.0.0.6 on it.
Than I wiped cache (darvik also) and system , and tried to install cym 7 from [install zip from sd card]
as progress goes through, phone freezes or restarts and only green HTC logo appears on the screen, without sound and message (quietly brilliant).
It happens on all rom-s i've tried, nightly ones and cym 6.0 also.
Could you please help me to fix my phone?

Did you do a full wipe?
If you just wipe the cache partitions, the ROM will bootloop.

He means data, dalvik cache and cache. Do those three wipes and reinstall the zip.

Thanks guys for replay.
I wiped data, dalvik cache and cache.
Than reinstalled zip (cym 6.0), the progress bar went nearly complete, than it freezed, rebooted and booted into clockwork directly.
than i clicked on [reboot system now], it rebooted and is freezed on HTC green logo without animation and sound.
Can i do anything else? or can I install htc sense rom again? (note that I had a backup and when I click a restore, it does restore but still freezes in middle process and no effect is given on phone)

Most Sense ROMs will require a 2.5 recovery. (Use the .zip I attached, it'll give you a temporary recovery once you flash it).
I know that Rempuzzle doesn't require 2.5 recovery tho. Have you tried re-installing the CM7 .zip? or re-downloading and re-installing?

Yesterday, I had exactly the same problem like you. The problem was something with the recovery system. I flashed it again and since then, it works.

ok guys,
I've updated clockwork with update.zip, it appeared blue clockwork 2.5, I wiped everything and started installation over. no ROMs worked (cym 7, cym 6, and latest nightly cyms, HCDR.ROM also).
I think downgrading on 2.5 is kind of reflash too. note that when I reboot recovery it is still orange 3.0.0.6 then until I update it again with update1.zip
Still no result, please help if you have any more ideas.

Flash a complete new recovery, for example with the PC49IMG.zip method..

Clockworkmod recovery 5.0.2.0 has the blue text.
Clockworkmod recovery 2.5.0.7 which you need to flash older roms has green text.
The Orange one is clockwork 3.x.x.x which atm is your main recovery installed in the phone, the update zip gives a temporary recovery which will disappear after rebooting, I'm not quite sure where your going wrong but just try this if you have a cm7 Rom on your SD card.
Power off the phone and then boot into recovery, volume down and power to get hboot and then select recovery, (sorry for the noob instructions, I just want to make sure your doing it correctly) when the Orange clockwork loads up first select wipe data/factory reset and then wipe cache, after that scroll down to advanced and select wipe dalvik cache from in that menu, then go back and choose install from zip/choose zip find your cm7 Rom and select it after its done its thing reboot from main menu.
Cm7 should install fine from clockwork 3.x+ and then if you want to install an older rom like cm6 open Rom manager flash clockwork 2.5.0.7 (also temporary) and reboot into it then do the same wipes and flash cm6.

Just saying that will probably confuse the guy even more, try explaining what PC49IMG is? Or at least give him a link to where he can find it.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium

guys, I did PC49IMG.zip method too. I mean I wrote this file on sd card and than in fastreboot i clicked volume up (update). it has done everything.
I do cym7 installation exactly with your (nooby) instruction. thing is that when installation process goes, it is not finnishing, its freezing or rebooting phone and then not booting exept green HTC logo.
I think this is unique case in this forum. so no more ideas I guess.

Ahh.... so you're not that much of a noob then, my apologies.
Look here at the second post, try to update clockwork to the latest 5.0.2.0 then try again.
