Stuck on boot screen - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

so, I've been using the miui xj rom for a while with no problems until last night. I had to reboot my phone and after that it just wouldn't start up anymore-it just stuck on the boot screen (the one with the joker-'why so serious' lol )
so what are my options? unfortunately, I don't have a backup, at least not a recent one. is there anyway to fix this problem or do I have to flash a ROM again? right now I can't get anything onto my phone's memory card cause I don't have the micro sd to sd adapter

So you can enter the recovery ? Then you need to flash the rom again....my guess ?!

yes..but before flashing a new rom, you should wipe data...and apparently I can't do that now I tried to select 'wipe cache' from the recovery menu and that also doesn't work...

alpharev recovery v2.5.1.8
whatever I choose from the recovery menu doesn't work- I tried wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, backup and restore, mounts and storage-I just get a black screen and nothing happens.
so I think I should flash a new recovery image... I found this:
#METHOD 1#
Method One uses Android Flasher to flash the recovery image.
[STEP1]- Poweroff. Hold the BACK button and the POWER button to boot into FASTBOOT mode.
[STEP2]- Download Android Flasher
[STEP3]- Download the recovery image of your choice. Put it in a place you can remember.
[STEP4]- Run android flasher, tick "Recovery", and press "Begin"
[STEP5]- Browse to where you downloaded the recovery image, select it, and press "open"
[STEP6]- Wait for the process to complete.
but it's not really clear what's to be done-does the phone need to be connected to the pc? where do I save android flasher? to the phones memory card? or to the pc?

Yeah download android flasher(pc) and run it, boot your phone into fastboot (back + power) plug in usb. Do u have a recovery img?

[Q] Has Android Revolution HD install bricked my phone? [Solved]

Hello All.
This is the first time I have tried to put a custom ROM on an HTC so I am still learning the ropes.
I tried to follow the instructions in the first post. So... In sequence, this is what I did...
HTC One X unlocked with htcdev.com (S-ON) or S-OFF (coming soon)
This seemed to go without a hitch. On the HBoot screen (I think that is what it is called) it tells me I am now unlocked.
ClockworkMod Recovery or 4EXT Touch Recovery (coming soon)
I installed the official version as per the instructions here.
The last instruction that seemed to work successfully was this:
Code:
fastboot flash boot recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.2.4-endeavouru.img
Then I tried
Code:
fastboot reboot
which put me into recovery mode.
<EDIT> The instructions here have now been corrected to:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.2.4-endeavouru.img
</EDIT>
Choosing the reboot option from recovery just bounces me back into recovery mode but I understand from the instructions I should be able to boot into a working phone!
Has something gone wrong?
If I use the volume down + power button I can enter HBoot mode. From here I can select Fastboot. Connecting via USB to my computer seems to work fine, as I see Fastboot USB on my phone, and I when I execute this...
Code:
fastboot devices
I get something like this
Code:
List of devices attached
HTXXXXXXXXXX device
I am now unsure how to continue because I think something has gone wrong and I should have a working phone at this point.
Do I press ahead and try to install the Firmware package from here? Unless this lets me boot into a working phone (which I don’t believe it will), it still leaves me with the problem that for a One X, without a removable SD card I don’t know how to transfer and run the "Super Wipe" script, nor transfer and flash Android Revolution ROM via recovery.
Do I need to do something with
Code:
fastboot flash
?
Please help as she is threatening to dump me for destroying her 2-day-old phone.
It's
Code:
fastboot flash [B]recovery[/B] recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.2.4-endeavouru.img
not boot..
Solution for you is to go into bootloader, flash recovery with the command i gave you and then reboot into recovery and install the rom..
After that everything should be ok and your phone will boot into ARHD without any problem.
delete please

It looks like the instructions I followed previously had an error then.

I will follow your instructions. But what about the RUU that is mentioned in the instructions? It is not clear how or when I should flash it. Presumably I flash the RUU before I do the ARHD flash... ???

You don't need to flash any RUU or firmware unless your phone wasn't shipped with 1.26, which i don't think it was.
Just try flashing the recovery with the correct command and then the rom. If your phone doesn't boot after that then you may try the firmware but i'm sure you won't need it.

So, I understand that you are telling me:
Flashing CWM recovery will rectify my current problem and restore my phone to a workable state.
Booted normally, I can copy the ARHD ROM to the internal SD (not sure what the location for this will be).
I then reboot into recovery and 'Install Zip from SD card'.

Good advice, I am sure. However my problem now is getting into a working phone so that I can transfer the ROM onto the internal SD.
Can't wait to get home and try it!
what you have done is replaced your boot sector with a recovery image, that is the reason why you cant boot your phone as normal so even flashing the recovery correctly will not allow your phone to boot up.
as your phone cannot boot up you cannot transfer any files to the internal memory of your phone in order to flash ARHD
at present there is a problem with the official version of ClockworkMod Recovery so i personally would reccommend using the interim version HERE
and flash with fastboot flash recovery r1-modaco-recovery-clockwork-touch-endeavoru.img
As you have [email protected]$ked your boot partition up you will also want to download THIS
this is an insecure boot image (thanks to paul from modaco) I have just extracted the part you will need from his package
with this you will need to be in fastboot again and type fastboot flash boot boot.img
obviously you will need to copy both of the files to the same directory as fastboot is on your PC in order to send them
by flashing the boot section with the insecure boot here it will allow your phone to boot up normally again, once it has booted normally you can then copy the ARHD and superwipe to your internal SD card
to access recovery
power off phone by holding power button for 10seconds
power on with power+voldown
select recovery from hboot screen with voldown then power to select
your phone will reboot and then you will be in recovery
do a nandroid backup incase anything goes wrong
then flash the superwipe script
then flash ARHD 1.2.2
all is good

You are correct of course, however, there comes a point where the only way to learn is to actually do something. I have flashed numerous ROMS on my Galaxy S, and before doing this I have read numerous guides trying to better understand the procedures for HTC devices.
I have tried to follow what appeared to be a step-by-step guide, however, either there has been a malfunction, or it appears there may be two important bits of information missing from that guide:
Flashing CWM recovery leaves the phone in a state that it won't boot normally, and consequently...
The ARHD ROM should be loaded onto the internal SD at the very beginning of the procedure

@bagofcrap24 I may have misled you with a typo in the first post. (See my edit)
d'oh
edit : just read updated info
so what happens when you choose recovery and press power from the hboot screen
i'm understanding that when doing a normal reboot it just sends you straight into hboot?
power on with voldown
press voldown to select recovery
press power to select recovery
you should either see CWM or the stock recovery
again looking at what you have written, if you just do a normal reboot and its putting you straight into recovery then you probably have flashed recovery onto the boot partition

I get a circular yellow 'recycling' symbol, followed a few seconds later by a magenta triangle with an exclamation mark. (Is this the stock recovery?). Then the phone restarts and I end up back in the Clockworkmod recovery.

No. A normal reboot (without holding the Vol down key) sends me straight to clockworkmod recovery.
I can get to HBoot with Vol down+Power on startup.

Right this means you did mess up the boot and recovery partitions, the one where you have the exclamation mark is the stock recovery which means you didn't flash cwm to the recovery partition.
the fact that you get to recovery on a normal boot also suggests as I suspected that you have flashed recovery on to the boot partition, follow the instructions I put up earlier about flashing the boot.IMG and redo the recovery.IMG and you should be fine

Your analysis is quite correct. All is indeed good! Thanks very much. The boot image worked as described. I will now transfer Superwipe and the ROM.
Make sure you do a nandroid backup first, it was lucky this time but if you mess up your system partition you may find yourself with no way of putting files on without unrooting and restoring the ruu

[Q] Can't get into recovery

Hi everyone!
First of all, thank you for taking the time to read this!
I have tried to do research on my problem but can't solve it...
The problem is that i can't get into recovery to backup my stock rom.
Specs: HTC Wildfire S, marvel A510e, S-on, Bootloader unlocked, Rooted, Radio-7.54.39.28M, Andriod 2.3.5, HTC sence: 2.1, Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 5.0.2.8, Super SU.
I followed the guide: "How to root the Wildfire S with S-ON"on Andriod forums by CafeKampuchia, thumbs up for him, It got me this far but, now I want to do the thing for which I rooted my phone in the first place: Installing a costum ROM. Therefore I want to backup my stock ROM.
When I open in HBOOT (1.09.0099) and select recovery, the phone reboots and i see the HTC screen, this disappears after 2 sec and my screen turns black... (phone is still on beceause the buttons on the bottom are lighted.)
When I boot the normal way and try to boot into recovery trough CWM ROM manager same thing happen. Also flashed this recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1213229 Same thing happed...
So how can i backup my stock rom?
Many thanks in advantage!

Hello!
We have already faced this problem. We cannot find the reason why on some devices CWM is not working. It is characteristic for some devices. The decision is not found yet. We used all known methods for today, and all CWM versions (5.0.2.6 & 5.0.2.8), but are not present result.
Colleagues from 4pda.ru
You might try placing update zip on root of your sdcard and choose apply update from sdcard.
Too bad it doesn't have reinstall packages.

Flashing cm9- Am i doing it right??

Sorry, but, well couldnt do so- that is, without asking you all. Please, tell me if i am doing it right or not-
1 .Flash the kernel for cm9 by-
Boot to bootloader> Fastboot> fastboot flash boot boot.img> fastboot erase cache.
2. In recovery, wipe cache. Flash cm9 by selecting install zip from sd card.
Is this right? Let me know. And, also, what do i need to wipe exacxtly?? Cache, and __?
Thanks!
I flashed cm9 for the PrimoC (Virgin Mobile) One V yesterday, and this is what I did.
Get to recovery
Wipe data
Wipe cache
flash ROM zip in recovery
flash GApps in recovery (if applicable)
Boot into fastboot (Don't boot normally)
Flash the boot image via computer/command prompt (Google "flashing boot image one v" and there should be a complete tutorial somewhere in results)
Boot normally.
Done.
If this doesn't work/things are broken, restore to a backup via recovery, wipe data/cache, flash the ROM and GApps, but DON'T flash the boot.img via computer, and boot normally. I had to do that once, don't know the reason why the boot.img provided separately didn't work.
Hopefully this helped!
boot into bootloader
then select fasboot
then type fastboot flash boot boot. img
then head towards recovery
wipe cache/data/dalvik
then select choose zip from sd card
navigate to the file select it then press yes when prompted
thats it
reboot

you will find Here....
all of you are doing this thing wrong and then you are complaining that the phone doesn't boot...
INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO PROPERLY FLASH A ROM:
1. FLASH THE KERNEL! (you know how);
2. The phone will now boot and if you had stock, there is a chance that it will stay on Htc Logo screen;
3. Now you need to go into the recovery, either by pressing Vol down + Power to go into the bootloader and from there to recovery OR by connecting your phone to your pc and in CMD type:
Code:
adb shell
reboot recovery
4. You've flashed the kernel correctly, now you need to wipe everything.
5. Wipe:
Code:
Cache
Dalvik-Cache
Factory Reset (if you use TWRP)
System
6. Now choose to install your desired rom.
7. After it is finished, reboot your phone. If it boots correctly, reboot your phone into recovery once more.
8. Wipe DALVIK-CACHE.
9. Flash GAPPS.
10. Reboot and enjoy.
Flashing the rom + gapps and then kernel is like making a car without the engine and then after the car looks cool and it's done, you put the engine on the top of it.

HBOOT-0.93.0001

What ROM are you using? Did you do anything just before this happened?
The best thing to do is to wipe cache/data bebore re-flashing your rom and it will be fine.
I've done this every time my phone stuck on splash screen.
BTW think about making an NANDROID when your rom is fully and correctly installed, it will avoid some problem in the future

I collected it from a friend stuck to splash screen. I can actually say what happened before it got stuck but my guesses are:
1. It was on stock ROM before it got stuck.
2. It has no recovery on it.
Kindly help me out on it.
I know seems stupid, but if it sounds unrooted. Try soft reset battery out leave a bit, battery back in switch on reboot. Any luck

Try get recovery using the
PB99IMG 4ext recovery in my sig.
Put the PB99IMG.zip on ur sdcard then boot into bootloader (vol down + power) and bootloader should find the zip and ask to update recovery? Volume up for yes. Then it will ask to reboot? Volume down for no. Then select recovery using volume buttons to navigate and power to select. Once in recovery, format all partitions except sdcard, wipe dalvik. Then u can restore a nandroid backup or just flash a new rom. If u need to flash a new rom then just make sure to partition ur sdcard to what ever the rom OP requires.

Wildfire problem with CWM

Hi
i receive yesterday phone for my daughter, so i done hboot, s-off, recovery CWM
problem is when i try install any rom, i going to recovery mode and everything is fine, when i try install from sd card in empty screen, any other options same cwm its show me only first menu nothing else
Regards
Pl rephrase your question.
Here is what I feel will work:
Change your recovery to a stable one
Go to fastboot menu, even on pc go to fastboot and type fastboot flash recovery itsnamehere.img
If it is successfully flashed, go to recovery mode.
Hope you have put a ROM(and gapps) on sd.
Wipe Dalvik, cache, data.
Then flash the ROM and gapps.
Reboot.

Oh your problem isnt a problem.
Newer recoveries switch screen off on pressing power button. To accept you have to press trackball button.
(If you hv solved the prob,well & good, it's just that I cant figure out your language)
