I was trying to flash gapps and when I rebooted I got the android updating screen and then it showed a picture of a red exclamation point with a triangle on top of an android phone and it was just stuck there!

Hi guys,
I know you guys really don't like noob-questions here, but i'm posting it anyway.
Yesterday I helped a friend with his Desire HD to flash a different rom. But we never came that far, if I start the phone in recovery a little phone-logo will appear with a red triangle. I don't know what goes wrong but this is what we've done:
We started out in the sticky topic (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936214).
We started by downgrading the phone (followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003), this all worked and the phone restarted with a clean downgraded ROM.
Then we downloaded Visionary, temprooted it, and then permrooted it.
Then I flashed the Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF radio using this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=896597
After the phone rebooted, we downloaded ROM Manager (full) from Market, installed clockworkrecovery and tried to boot into recovery but this gave the Phone with a red triangle logo...
Can anyone please help?
this means that CWM is not installed, and your phone still has HTC recovery. Try installing CWM again.
You didn't do s-off?
Make sure you have s-off. I've also seen this when power cable is plugged in.

Thank you all for posting, I think we forgot to s-off the device. We only installed Visionary and expected the device to be ready for cwm, but we forgot the do the last steps in this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857537
Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere - I have looked through lots of posts for a solution but haven't found one (or at least haven't recognised anything to be a solution) so here goes...
...I rooted my HTC Desire using Unrevoked and then installed a rom called Redux 1.2. All worked fine for a few days, then suddenly my phone stopped booting (it sticks at the HTC logo). If I hold the volume down key when I power on I get the HBOOT menu, but if I select Recovery from the menu i get stuck with the HTC logo again.
Please can anybody give me an idiots guide (I am not a techie unfortunately) to how i can unbrick my phone without access to the recovery menu? Or if this has already been covered, please post a link.
My phone specs are as follows:
BRAVO PVT3 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.93.0001
MICROP-051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27
I thought I might be able to use Unrevoked to reflash the phone but it doesn't detect when the phone is connected...
Many thanks in advance for any help!
Well sure it doesn't see your phone as it doesn't boot...
Just flash the original rom updater utility from htc(ruu) and you will be back on a working recovery+system. Then you can root again.
Had you been s-off the solution would be simple but since you aren't that's the way to go.

Noob with a possibly bricked htc desire
Hi Folks,
i am a noob and have just started picking up the tricks of the trade.i have an unbranded htc desire. Was using the HiAPk rom till now. Then thought of flashing the INsertcoin 1.1.2. Created EXT4 for the same and recopied all data to my sdcard. Now when i try to flash any rom it just gets caught at the boot screen. Hi dont have a recovery image. But i do have a nandroid backup. Restoring the backup is not helping as well. The phone is s-off,rooted with clockword recovery 2.5.0.7. i do have access to recovery but, whatever i do, the phone gets stuck at the boot screen. Please assist. I guess this occured when i accidentally selected/deselected hboot/fastboot option? can that be a potential cause?
Why are you trashing this guys thread and starting a new one?
Thanks so much mortenmhp - that's 95% worked in that I do now have a working phone! However, if I select Recovery from the menu on the HBOOT screen, I just get the HTC logo followed by an image of the phone and an exclamation mark in a red triangle.
I just tried rooting with unrevoked anyway - thought it might also fix the Recovery problem - but got the error message "Error: failed to get root. Is your firmware too new?".
Please can you (or anybody else!) advise what I should do to:
a) fix Recovery
b) get Root
Since installing the HTC gingerbread rom my HBOOT is now 1.02.0001 and my radio is 5.17.05.23
Many thanks in advance!
You cannot root your phone with unrevoked. You fave to use revolutionary.

Well the "recovery problem" is not actually a problem. What you see is the stock htc recovery(since you put your phone completely back to stock). You can convince yourself by pressing vol up+power(might be vol down+power don't remember) on the screen with the exclamation mark and you should see the actual recovery menu.
This will all be fixed by rooting, which will also replace the stock recovery with a custom one(clockwork mod).
Since i linked you the latest htc release, unrevoked won't work. But Revolutionary will: http://revolutionary.io/
Just follow the simple directions.
"Bricked" word should be banned on these forums.
You have no idea what are you talking about, it's nowhere close to a brick. People open's a Q&A forums and then they see a **** ton of a "Bricked threads" just scaring them away.
/sigh
Sure but I'm not sure you filling support threads complaining will help I agree though.
Previously I had no problems booting up. Today, I S-offed my phone and did a lot of messing around (like flashing partition tables and stuff), but every time I was able to boot up without any issues.
This is my second time booting up after installing GingerVillain, and I'm stuck at the Why So Serious screen. That's really weird, because previously I was able to reboot (because Android Market website couldn't detect my device).
Ugh. Any ideas?
Check if your hboot (I assume you flashed another one because you're s-off) has enough space for gingervillian.

Hello everyone,
I know this is an user error logically, i was attempting to install CM10, my HOX is rooted and unlocked, i have access to fastboot, but what i did wrong is i forgot to put the rom in sdcard prior to flashing the boot.img, clearly i can see my mistake but i am not able to fix it. so right now my phoe will get to the HTC logo and reboot. I have read a few forums but was not able to come up with a solution to my problem
Any help will be greatly appreciated, or if there is a thread that covers this i will gladly read it.
Thank you.
EDIT: sorry i just realized that i put it in the wrong forum is supposed to be in the ATT One X forums, could a mod please move it. Thank you
Also i am using recovery TWRP 2.3.1.0
Just mount ur USB and copy the ROM into the sdcard and then go to bootloader flash boot.img and do the other jobs then it'll be good to go
Hello,2 days ago I attempted to root my HTC One M8S.I'm here so therefore I failed .I've unlocked the bootloader I can get into with ease.The problem comes when I try to go into recovery(TWRP,CWM,whatever).I flashed the recovery(TWRP and CWM tried both) but it seems I can't boot into recovery at all.I go into the bootloader and I select recovery my phone just attempts to reboot and it goes in a kinda standby state with the an orange led blinking and black screen(when it's connected to the PC/charger a blinking battery image with a lightning appears blinking).That's my recovery.I have no errors when flashing the recovery or any kind of errors.
If you could help me I would be grateful.Thanks in advance.
The most possible reason for the failure is you installed wrong recovery that is not meant for your device variant ... there is no CWM recovery for M8S.

Thank you.That was the problem.About the ROMs are the same as M8 ones or should I look for M8S ones.I didnt found any.
M8s is a completely different machine and M8 ROMs will not work.
I suggest reading this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/make-custom-recovery-htc-one-m8s-t3114245
