help | can't got to recovery (clockworkmod) - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

***first of all , yes i searched (hours) in the net for any solutions , but non of them were a suitable solution for my problem .
****and i am not a newbie , i just opened a new account
so i am having my problem with my htc evo 4G (CM 7.1 nightly 256) ;
all start when i accidently uninstalled bustybox (not the installer the package itself) - and the uninstallation ended in failure...
so the first thing i tried to do is to reinstall it , but it sad it having problem with getting a superuser permission - and yes i checked it , and it actually do getting positive permission from the superuser ...
so the first problem I faced is getting the wifi work , when I am trying to connect to my router and it starting to maintain a ip address , it gets stuck in that position .
so after I tried a several fixes , without luck , I decided to restore my nanadroid backup ;
so I went to the bootloader and when I press the restore option it doesn’t go to clockworkmod it just like rebooting and coming back to the same bootloader ,only with other options (reboot , bootloader, shut down…) .
so this is my problem , I already delete my personal files (apps…) from my droid , so I have now a clean android …
while I tried to fix my problem I noticed that i am getting problems with all the superuser permission staff … for example apps that need a su permission doesn’t work (root explorer) .
so my droid is pretty f%^ked , I am having s-off , but without clockworkmod restore , and problem with the su, and again WIFI .
a help will be much appreciated .

I've had a similar issue. I personally prefer the Amon_RA recovery. Try this:
-Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705026.
-download PC36IMG.zip and place into the root of your SDcard.
-Power off phone. Boot into boot loader(volume down then power button; make sure fast boot is turned off)
-In bootloader choose to "update" when asked to by pushing volume up button.
-try to enter recovery.
-Flash whatever rom you want.
-If you want Clockworkmod recovery: Once you have access to your phone install Rom manager and install Clockworkmod recovery

Download Amon Ra recovery. Rename to PC36IMG or PC36IMG.zip. (i don't remember if it needs the ".zip" part or not. Try it both ways. Put on root of sdcard. Boot into bootloader. It will ask to update. Select yes. You will then have a recovery. Go into recovery and reflash the rom.

I think you have to leave the ".zip." Not 100% sure though. I leave it intact and it still recognizes it.

After you reinstalled the latest version of buisybox go to recovery and fix permissions,that would have solved your problem.Theres no need to reinstall a new recovery.

It wouldn't let him reinstall busybox. He couldn't go back to recovery either.

I'm saying the first time he did it,before everything got screwed up,anyway,download the latest release of RA's recovery,if its not already,rename it to PC36IMG.zip,don't unzip it,put it on the root of your SD card,turn off your phone,turn it on while holding down on the volume rocker,once in Hboot,it will ask you if you want to update,hold the volume rocker in the up position,then it will install the new recovery,it will then ask you if you want to reboot,hold the volume rocker in the down position,then scroll and go into recovery,have you partitioned your sd card yet?

no success ;
i put the file in the root of my sd card , and when i go to the bootloader the only thing that happen is that it like freeze for a 3 seconds and write after "searching for PC36DIAG.zip ...... .. .. PC36diag.niff ... no success/didn't find " (something like that) - not something new BTW ... and than i get the standard menu.
and no , i didn't turn fastboot off , because i don't have this option , for my knowledge its a option from the retail htc rom , not on CM .
and for what i need to partition my sd card , the rom is in the internal phone memory.

The file should read PC36IMG and its a zip file.
Its better to partition,most newer roms are requiring it and its great on saving internal memory.What Hboot version are you running?
Is what we might have to do is update your Hboot,sounds like yours could be corrupted.

Try it both ways, PC36IMG.zip and just PC36IMG.
Sent from my Supercharged Shooters E3D 4g while sick with Anthrax. Hit that thanks button if I managed to help.

The recovery has to be named PC36IMG.zip as it is a zip folder.containing a script telling boot loader what to do and how to doit if u downloaded it as a zip file DO NOT NAME IT PC36IMG.zip.zip just change the file name prior to the
.zip extension to PC36IMG which is case sensitive and must be in caps

Correct; I'd just like to add, try to call the .zip a package, cuz in the past, when people have referred to them as 'folders' people started creating actual folders named PC36IMG.zip and placing the zip inside them...lol
A second addition, a PC36IMG file is flashed only in the bootloader, not the recovery screen.

i tried all the options ... no success ...

If you're on 6.1.x or whatever, doesn't that mean you have revolutionary root?

Don't make me come over there.

Ok , so i have HBOOT 6.16.1002 , radio 2.15.00.0808...
i think maybe i need to unroot my phone and than root it again , god knows how ...
please guys (and girls [if you are a girl - dibs ]) help me !!!

Try this if all else fails.
First boot into your bootloader, select FASTBOOT, then hit the power button. Then connect your phone to your computer. It should read FASTBOOT USB in red.
Since you used Revolutionary, you should already have the My HTC driver installed under your device manager under Android USB devices. If not this will never work until My HTC is installed.
Extract the zipped files attached to a folder called sdk on your C-drive. Then open a command prompt and type
c: <ENTER>
cd /sdk <ENTER>
fastboot flash recovery recovery-ra-supersonic-3.11-gnm.img <ENTER>
fastboot reboot-bootloader <ENTER>
If that works, hit the power button to select bootloader, then see if you can get into this recovery (it's Amon). I also believe you have and issue with your SD card, but I could be wrong.

Mannnn I FU$%ING LOVE YOU !!!! i have being searching for a solution like that !!!
i first tried in linux but it couldnt find my droid , so i switched to windows , and walla !!!
THANKS MAN , i OWE YOU ONE , please give me your email for i will give you a favour one day

Adding adb in linux is a bit of a chore, as you have to add the respositories and change the bashrc file. Though you can always use windows as a fall back.

[help] HTC Desire Can't Enter Recovery Mode and Clockworkmod

Hi guys, i am a newbie here.
Last night i was trying to root my desire using unrevoked. I followed the guide from XDA step by step and everything seemed fine until word "done" appear in unrevoked.
After that, desire supposed to enter recovery mode and clockworkdmod but there was nothing appear in the screen. My desire suddenly shut down.
Can you tell me what am i suppose to do then because i want to put custom rom in my desire and now there's nothing i can do because it can't enter recovery mode (it only able to enter bootloader or Android OS itself).
Thanks

when you are in boot loader, use the volume down key and goto recovery and git power button. you should then be taken to clockwork recovery. this is where you can select your rom from SD card and flash
I've tried to do that and now it stuck in HTC Logo. Doest it mean i've to try unrevoked again or simply unroot it?
try rebooting by taking battery off. i'm not an expert but you might have to do it manually using the guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696189
did you install the unrevoked drivers?
Okay i will try. Btw, in case i want to unroot, can you tell me where i can get "RUU_Bravo_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.19.707.7_Radio_32.36.00.2 8U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126179" ? The link from XDA seems down and i can download any.
Me and another member have encountered the same issue, seems there's some bug in HBOOT or something.
Boot into Android, go to Settings > Privacy > Factory data reset. Once you confirm it, it will reboot your phone into Recovery.
BUT, unless you re-format (partition) your SD Card, you won't be able to get back in again (unless you do the Factory data reset again).
This seems to happen randomly. Right now I can get into Recovery just fine. But once the bug occurs, the only way to get it to stop is to format your SD card.
Now i am thinking to unroot it than trying to do the whole rooting step all over again. Can you tell me where i can get the RUU for HTC Desire Asia

Here you go:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126179_signed.exe
Okay, i've done unrooting with HTC Desire RUU Asi and what happen now my SLCD is brick. I am really hopeless right now because guide for "SLCD Brick" doesn't even work in my phone because once again my htc can't enter recovery mode ><
"I am trying to use the guide from sprinker right now. Hopefully it will work"
when you are in hboot the volume down/up button work?
Hi all,
I also have the problem that I can no longer enter the recovery mode on my desire.
Basically, whenever I am in the bootloader menu (either by pressing vol-down+power, return+power, or via ROMManager) and then select "recovery" I get right back to the "fastboot" screen.
I tried uninstalling/installing/upgrading ROMManager and also tried flashing clockwork via the newest version of Unrevoked (downloaded yesterday).
Nothing helps :-(
What I didn't try, yet, is reformatting my SDCard or resetting my device via "Settings > Privacy > Factory data reset". (I don't want to install all my apps >again<; I'm also a bit afraid that I break something an then cannot even reflash using recovery).
Here is some more info about my device:
- Flashed rom: Leedroid 2.1a
- HBOOT 0.83.0001
- RADIO 5.10.05.23
I would be really greatful if anyone had a solution for this problem.
P.s.: in case I HAVE to reset/format: can I somehow make a backup of all my apps&settings?
Hi all, I have the same problem now.
Everything works, after s-off, except I can no longer enter Recovery - any solution?
I didn't find an easy solution. I had to do the following (some steps might be optional but I wanted to be sure):
- Formated SD card (ext3 and fat partition)
- Complete reset via RUU (RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_T2_Radio_32.41.00.32U_4.08.00.09_release_137222_signed.exe)
- Using unrevoked to reinstall recovery rom
- Reinstalled my custom rom (Leedroid)
Now everything works.
BTW: via TitaniumBackup I could backup all my apps and data quite easily. Didn't expect it to work that well
thanks- what about s-off - is it working now for you?
"s-off" = ?
I Have a similar problem... I can't enter recovery. When i press "recovery mode", I just get a black screen with a phone and a "!" in it.
Have to pull battery to reboot desire.
I have formatted sd.
Quite annoying, cause I need to wipe my battery stats, and I don't know any other way to do it, than going to recovery.
I tried to update ROM to Cyanogenrom which was unsuccessful - just get boot loop.
I also get the same 'red triangle with exclamation mark on phone' icon when trying to go to recovery mode.
So now I have a Desire which boot loops and cant enter recovery mode ...
anyone know how to get out of this one?
This might work for you
WAIT, BEFORE YOU START, CREATE A GOLDCARD. IT IS VERY NECESSARY. THINGS WILL GO WRONG IF YOU DONT.
YOU MUST BE ABLE TO BOOT GO TO THE BOOTLOADER MENU.
Firstly, download this file. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13240777/Desire Downgrade.ZIP
Extract the files.
Run the win-down.bat file.
Follow on screen instructions.
After the process is completed, Head to the root of your SD card and check if there is a file named P99***IMG (FORGOT THE EXACT NAME BUT IT SHOULD BE SOMETHING LIKE THIS) there should be one.
Secondly, disconnect your phone and turn it off.
After that boot up your phone while pressing the volume down button and the power button.
The bootloader should be checking for files after awhile and once it found the file that is supposed to be in the root of your sd card, press the volume up button (NOT EXACTLY SURE, SHOULD BE THE ONE THAT SAYS YES AND CONTINUE)
It should be writing files to your phone. and replaces everything. E.G: HBOOT, RECOVERY,RADIO and such.
It should be writing files successfully and then it would ask you to reboot. Continue with the reboot and you should be having your Desire back to stock. Perfect.
PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THERE ARE RISKS INVOLVED LIKE FAILURE OF WRITING TO THE HBOOT. PLEASE REMEMBER TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS. MAINLY, DO NOT BLAME ME FOR ANYTHING THAT GOES WRONG.
FINALLY, YOU SHOULD BE READING EVERYTHING UP TO HERE AND THAT YOU MUST HAVE A GOLDCARD (A GOLD SD CARD)
Hope this helps you and please ask if you have further questions. PM me if the questions cannot be answered here. Good Luck
This should bring back your phone to stock. Root your phone again after it is done
i have the same issue. but i got stuck when trying to partition my sd card. Now i can't enter Android itself only the bootloader. But i also lost my clockwork recovery...
it keeps looping the HTC Quitly brilliant bootscreen... Forever!
i am now formatting my sd card with my pc. will i then be able to go into recovery again using a zip file from clockwork i found? using this:
fake-flash
Fake-flash is only possible with root access, you need to be rooted to use it. Basically, its a way to have recovery running on the phone without using a PC (making it safer as you are less likely to brick using no USB cable to push files, instead, you push directly from your phone). You can use "ROM Manager" from the marketplace to do this. Simply place the downloaded test recovery image on the phone and the downloaded rom zip (renamed to update.zip) and flash using ROM Manager.
Preperation
Download the fake-flash update zip from one of the links below
Copy the update.zip to the root of your SD card (the name MUST remain as update.zip)
When you want to launch the recovery image
Turn on your device with 'volume down' pressed and select 'Recovery'
When the exclamation mark appears, press and hold 'volume up' then press 'power'
Select the second option, 'Apply sdcard:update.zip
That's it, ClockworkMod recovery should launch!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and then installing a ROM with it?
(sry for bad english)
i'm having the exact same problem. i've tried fake flash and it does nothing for me, so does flashing the clockwork recovery image. the only one i haven't used yet is the downgrade...hope that will help

Black Screen at Recovery ?

Hey guys . I tried rooting my phone using unrevoked 3.21 . I installed the boot drivers and ran the reflash, it done it thing and said everything was good . Once I try to get into recovery , I get nothing but a black screen ? I just got this incredible the other day and its running 2.2 . Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated . Edit : I should add that there is no rom manager or anything like that in my apps , only the super user ?
Had the same exact problem about 2 minutes ago, and i came across your post when i was searching for a fix. Now that i've found a fix, i thought i would help a fellow rooter out. According to what i found, it's a screen problem. Something to do with the new Slcd screen on the incredible and the root. Anyway, enough of the small talk. Time for the fix.
1. Plug your phone into your computer via USB.
2. Select "Disk Drive" in the options menu that comes up on your phones screen and hit okay.
3. Download the new recovery image here: ( Sorry for the messed up URL. Since i made this account just to post in this thread i can't post outside links. Just remove all of the *'s )
http:*//dougpiston*.com/files/Recovery/PB31IMG_cwm_mod.zip
4. Rename PB31IMG_cwm_mod.zip to just PB31IMG.zip
5. Put it on the root of your SD card. ( For me it was H: )
6. Make sure your SD card is formated to FAT32. If it is not, make a backup of the files on your SD card - as formatting the card will delete all data - then right click on your SD card drive, go to format, select FAT32, and click start. Once it is formated, place all of you files back on the SD card.
7. Disconnect your phone from the computer and power it down.
8. Boot your phone into HBOOT (Power + Volume Down)
9. Wait for HBOOT to load. It will ask to update "recovery". Select Yes.
10. It will ask if you want to reboot. Select No.
11. It will take you back to the HBOOT menu. Select Recovery.
12. Select "back up and restore" ( Not sure what it exactly is. I'm writing this from memory... )
13. Remove PB31IMG.zip from your SD card to avoid HBOOT asking everytime.
Done. In 13 easy steps. You can now boot into recovery any time you please.
NOTE: I take no credit for this fix AT ALL. All credit goes to doug piston and adryanlyne.

Can You reach The recovery?
From there go to installation zip and install a new ROM (previously downloaded an copied to the root of your SD)
From recovery usually you can activate SD card for transfering files from the pc.If not, insert the SD on the pc in order to copy the rom.
Dont forget to swipe all from recovery before that and i Hope that you already made a backup of everything with titanium

If you can't enter The recovery i don't know how you can flash a new rom.
Maybe you can describe one by one all the steps you made in order to understand where is the problem.
1. Goto http://unrevoked.com and download the software
2. You now have a choice of recovery, Amon RA has released an SLCD version of his recovery, which in my opinion is much better, it has a few more features than Clockwork. I recommend Amon RA, but the choice is yours.
Amon RA Recovery v1.7.0.1 R5 SLCD: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4481275/recovery-RA-desire-v1.7.0.1-R5-SLCD.img
Clockwork v2.5.0.7 SLCD:http://koush.tandtgaming.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-bravo.zip
3. Go to HBOOT, this is done by shutting down your phone and powering on the device while holding the Power button down and pushing Volume down at the same time, once HBOOT is loaded do a wipe (Clear Storage). You can navigate the menus by using the volume rocker and the Power button to select your option.
4. Load Unrevoked and load the custom SLCD recovery file on your PC:
Goto File>Custom Recovery and point it to the recovery image that you downloaded in step 2.
5. Restart your phone, it will take a few minutes because you did a wipe, just wait it will load (up to 5 minutes). As soon as the welcome screen loads plug your phone in to the PC and Unrevoked should do it's thing. If Unrevoked doesn't start, then hit the Menu button go to Settings --> Applications --> Development and enable USB debugging.
6. The phone will restart a couple of times, and will look like it's hanging on the HTC screen but it's not! If the HTC screen is present for more than 5 minutes pull your battery and start again ( I had to do this a couple times myself). If Unrevoked pauses half way through its process, it could be because for some reason you don't have the proper drivers installed. You can load them as Unrevoked does the root process, while the phone is rebooting if Unrevoked pauses and Windows prompts you for a driver point it to the C:\android\tools directory and it will load the drivers and Unrevoked will continue its root process.
7. When Unrevoked is finished you will be left at the recovery screen,
8. *** VERY IMPORTANT*** Before restarting do a "wipe cache partition", "factory reset". And now would be a good time for a Nandroid Backup
9. Now reboot, and Android should load. Check for Superuser Permissions app, if you see it you're good if not restart from step
I followed these instructions i did got superuser on my phone but when I installed busybox and titanium backup it said its not rooted and I installed rom manager from market and try load my leedroid from SD card and it reboot the phone and that was it. I can go to HBOOT but when I pick recovery it turns off the phone or maybe it just blackscreen. My phone did work till I installed the ROM manager from market and messed it up. And thank you soo much for your replys
So You have amon ra?
Go to recovery And make wipe of everything except battery.
Then, put the battery out from The Desire.
Put it back, enter The recovery again and allow SD card (i dont remember now exactly The name of the option) After conecting the Desire to the pc.
Transfer From The pc The new rom.
If you dont have one, look for Modaco custom r9 for Desire, because it is very close to the stock rom. In order to get it you will have to pay but it's worth the price and in the future you Will have full access to new custom ROMS!
Then go (in recovery of amon ra) to flash zip And flash the new rom.
Sorry is recovery when using press volume down and power?
Ya I do have amon ra
And when I go press down volume and power and plug USB to computer my computer doesn't find it. It doesn't show up but it does show on phone USB is plugged
Ok,You press down volume. Now choose 2nd option (recovery) by moving vol down and when in recovery option press power to select.
Desire reboots and enters in amon ra recovery.
From the options choose usb-ms toggle and connect the Desire to the pc. Rest of the steps as explained.
But when I choose recovery the screen goes dark or turns off not sure which 1. When I connect the USB only phone says HBOOT USB plugged nothing on computer
is" your" desire branded? e.g orange, telus
have you tried installing an official ruu preferably a wwe version?
If you enter the recovery and the screen swich off...i can't help you. I don't know how to bypass that issue!
I'm sorry

download full wipe from xda.. google it "full wipe 1.3 xda" put the zip in ur sdcard.. put the rom(watever rom ur using) in sdcard as well ..
now take battery off ur phone.. back in.. press and hold vol down + power key.. u will go into bootloader.. then click on recovery.. ur phone will boot into CMW recovery > install zip fro sdcard.. 1st do a full wipe.. then flash the rom again.. u will be fine
i'll try now, so happy some one can help, i havent sleept for hours
Else if that does not work ( when i try to boot into recovery that way my phone vibrates, shows a green light and does nothing.. )
connect the phone to your computer and in ADB type: " reboot recovery "
I agree with leather face, I haven't tried this method but I have heard this will solve your problem, when I had the same sort of problem I downloaded the ace stock rom the placed the file on my SD card then took my battery out then reinserted it & powered back on while holding down the volume down button then once in bootloader select fastboot then it will ask to load zip, select yes now it will say done, reboot then you should be back at the beginning again with a working phone start again from scratch but this time do a wipe from recovery and make sure you are using the correct clockwork with the correct rom ie clockwork 2.*.*.* with Cyanogen 6 & clockwork 3.*.*.* with Cyanogen 7 & then you should be just fine mate
now i've tried... it says it cant find recovery file? in CWM loader
it says wrong image...
edit: signature is wrong (or some thing like that) should i rename the .zip file?
or sould i generate a Goldcard for MD98IMG.zip?

You'll only need a goldcard if your phone is branded.
With something like a T-Mobile Bootscreen or else.
The Filename should be PD98IMG.zip and it should be in the root folder of your SD.

Dude,DON'T PANIC!
Download the attached CWM 2.5.1.3 rar and unrar it.
Now,do you have ADB setup on your pc?If not,search for a guide(Google is your friend),there are many.Supposing you have ADB setup,place the downloaded CWM .img file inside the folder where fastboot is.Open CMD in windows(Type cmd in RUN on your start menu) and there type "cd" and navigate to the folder where fastboot is,like "cd C:/YourPc'sName/android/tools" without the quotes.If it changes folder(it will if you type everything correctly) type without the quotes "fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.3-ace.img".The you will be able to boot in recovery through fastboot.
Else,you can use Fastboot commander which is supposed to have a nice GUI and make things easier,but I haven't used it.
Hope I helped!
FIXED,
Fith Fastboot commander (putting my phone in FASTBOOT USB)
Flashing CWM tool, after that I'm da king (Thanks to all, specially mimilover)
Installed Rom, kernel and now nunning 1300Mghz trying it out...

For all who trying to flash DHD in 2.3.5

Please note that you are doing all tasks in your own risk.
Preparation:
Download a clockwork recovery img file, for me I had 5.0.2.0 ace:
download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-ace.img​Since I am new in this field, you may need to do a research by yourself to sure this is the img for your device.
The link having box of versions:
download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries​
A new ROM, you can look in the dev. page (or you already having a ROM wanna flash)
*You may need to unzip the ROM and zip it in "storage only" mode.
*Put your re-zipped ROM file into memory card (Should be in the root directory). You can see there is a boot.img in ROM, copy it out of ROM and you will need it later.
Backup all your stuffs like SMS, contact book etc... (I had failed in SMS and all my free apps)
Step:
Go HTC dev. to unlock your boot loader, if you have the problem about cmd error (like ERROR command dont exists) in getting token, you should look step 1 really carefully because you forgot to flash the RUU (Wonder it is a popular problem...)
*At here HTC dev. will ask you to create a folder to hold adb.exe, move your boot.img into it.
After unlock your boot loader, you should see the words ***unlocked*** in HBoot screen, so then go to fastboot and still using the cmd in prev. step, hits:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img​Yes your recovery img should put together with adb.exe in the same folder
So then now you have an unlocked bootloader and a clockwork recovery in your unroot device Backup your current ROM with CW recovery AGAIN (just for some accidents if they occur...)
In CW Recovery, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, in advanced page, wipe Dalvik cache and wipe battery stats.
*This will erase your data and CANNOT undo.
Select "intall zip from sdcard", then "choose zip from sdcard", find your zipped ROM file and say Yes.
Congratulations you had successed to flash a ROM BUT if you are the first time flashing ROM on your device (and this is what supposed to be lol). Your device will freeze at the boot screen (which is white background with green words "HTC"). So then here is the last step...
Go to bootloader and enter fastboot. Remeber the boot.img? Type in:
fastboot flash boot boot.img​in cmd.
So now you can enjoy your new ROM (Most of ROMs will take a minute to boot in the first time)
These stuffs took me lot of days to research... It may have another better, easy way. But I would appreciate if there are some thanks for me
