unable to boot into recovery

rooted and s-off
installed a custom rom but not happy with it so trying to revert to my back up i made before flashing
from rom manager it reboot, i select recovery it then freezes at the green and white HTC logo screen
the same happens when i try to boot into recovery using adb
can someone help?

Have you tried reflashing the recovery either via rom manager or using adb?

Don't think so, is the flash recovery 1 of the selection at the top of the Rom manager?

At the top of the rom manger app it will say flash recover 3.0.2.4. This is the most recent offical version. Click it and it will install CWM

sorted, went back to CWR 3.0.0.5 and she's a good'un

Cool, glad you got it sorted, happy flashing

See if this recovery works. You can either flash it through recovery or extract the image. Once you do that, you can flash it through either Fastboot, ADB, or Terminal Emulator.

Stuck in bootloop after flashing mistake

I was using charmeleon 5 with franco r10 kernel when I decided to switch roms to ARHD. I realized i flashed the kernel without first copying over the ARHD zip and am stuck in a bootloop. Is there anyway to remedy this? I have a backup of stock rom in cwm.

Flash the franco r10 boot image, not the modules, whipe (factory reset, cache & dalvik in Advanced in CWM) and flash the backup of your original ROM. Should be fine then

I had a similar problem, but when connecting the phone to the computer it wouldn't recognise it in the ADB, so I had to use an RUU to bring my phone back to life! That worked, but I had to root it again and then install the rom!
This was all because I earlier wiped my phone so couldn't flash the rom as nothing was on my SD card, or whatever it is called! So morale of the story, make sure you have backups . Was a schoolboy error!

Don't need adb, just fastboot. Can you boot into fastboot? Of not, search the forums for 'back to stock'. Plenty of info.
I learned the hard way too...

If you bootloop, hold the power button down, youll see the buttons at the bottom flash about 4 times and then the phone will shut off. After that press volume down and hold in until you get into the bootloader. The select recovery and then fix it. Problem solved

You need to flash the boot.img in fastboot first if you want to recover your previous ROM. Unless the USB-mount in CWM recovery is functional (in previous version it wasn't, haven't tried in current version). In that case you can mount your SD from recovery, copy the ARHD ROM to your SD, flash it and you are good to go!

Cant get back into Clockwork Recovery

Hi. i tried to install maximus new 3.2 rom and after i installed from zip and rebooted my phone, my phone is stuck on the htc logo white screen and keeps rebooting!
i tried to go back to recovery and it doesnt work now! the phone goes into a black screen then reboots again!

try in fastboot mode fastboot erase cache .
you posted in wrong section

Don't forget to reflash kernel modules incase you are using a custom kernel and if you need to reflash the recovery in fastboot make sure your battery isn't below 10% else fastboot won't allow you to flash it.

I have the same problem. The solution is simple: Flash the default recovery then re-flash the clockworkmod recovery again and then try.

You mention which rom you installed and that you flashed the zip file but don't mention that you did a wipe before this (depending on which rom you were previously on) or that you flashed the boot.img file via fastboot first.
PS! There's a section specifically for Q&A and these types of posts should go there are not to be posted in the dev section. Hopefully some kind mod will move it, but I guess you have a few answers by now.

You haven't flashed the boot.img if your phone keeps rebooting.
Also - you've posted this in the wrong section, this is a development section only.

can't boot-URGENT

Ok, so I was running the latest cm10 nightly but then decided to switch to the latest renovate rom, i did a full wipe and then installed it, afterwards i flashed the boot.img file and proceeded to reboot as per usual but after 20 minutes nothing happened... still at the htc screen. I can boot into bootloader but whenever i try and reboot into recovery it won't let me, it just reboots. What can i do?

After flashing the boot.img via fastboot, do you have erase cache ? (fastboot erase cache)

Maybe try installing clockwork again on toolkit. Shouldn't be the issue but worth a pop

[Q] One V Won't boot/stuck in a boot loop

Hi! All my problems became today, when I decided to root that samsung ROM. I used evervolv (old version) I red the instructions and I flashed kernel and boot.img with the htc one V all-in-one toolkit. It said that: "boot.img flashed" I was like: nice, and continued, did full wipe, and wiped cache then I flashed ROM and update. I tried to boot, but it did not boot. After waiting for about an hour I decided to do something. I was able to get to fastboot, and I flashed boot.img manually trough adb and fastboot, did everything like before, and still no boot.
I decided to try some else rom, because I have SD- card reader in my laptop. I putted sphongle to SD- card and I was able to get to fastboot, flashed boot.img, and flashed ROM. Phone was not able to boot, and it just got stuck in a boot loop. I tried samsung again, and now I can only get to recovery or to the white HTC- screen, that has text about build being for developement purposes only. Does anyone have any ideas how-to get my phone back to life, or is it totaly dead? Answes appreciated =)

Are you flashing correct kernel check that first.

Hmm... I'm pretty sure that I flashed right kernel, but now I can't get to fasboot screen. Only to ClockWork mod recovery. When I boot device, and press vol. down, and power, it always goes to recovery, or if I start to press those buttons a bit later, it only goes to that white HTC screen with red text. =(
E: After a while phone turns screen off, vibrates, and makes the screen again, so some kind of boot loop i guess?

Use the computer, turn it on normally and type in adb reboot bootloader

Thanks!
Was able to get it into fastboot. I flashed kernel and boot.img, those that came with shpongle. Then I did all the wipes and flashed the ROM. Still nothing. Goes into that same screen, and loops there.
