I tried to flash the Cyanogen mod 10 and did everything by the book. Flashed kernel first, then rom. After reboot phone is stuck in the bootloop (animation).
The problem is I didn't had room on my sd card so I moved backup of the previous rom to the computer. When I hold power and vol. down keys it gets me back to the recovery but I can't mount sd card to my computer to copy back my backup rom.
Please help guys
Because you didn't wipe,you have to do a full wipe or you flashed the wrong kernel.....also first boot takes time about 3-5min

Well I flashed the right kernel and did the full wipe. Anyway i flashed new CMW non touch recovery and managed to mount usb storage.

Hey guys hope someone can help me out here. I just updated my phone to the latest OTA Rooted ROM and everything was working fine. Then I used Rom Manager to download the latest Fresh 3.0.?? ROM. When it downloaded it asked if I wanted to backup ROM and wipe data. I checked both on. Then phone rebooted and it wont get past white HTC Evo4G screen. I did vol down and power and I go to Recovey and again it freezes on this screen. I cant access my sd card to put any recovery stuff on the phone. How do I get past this?? This sucks

I had the same issue this morning loading the new Fresh Rom. "Stuck at White HTC EVO" screen. Just do a battery pull to restart your phone and let it boot up normally. It should be able to load after that.
Thanks a lot fuzion. I could have sworn I tried that last night but I guess I didn't. So I guess no Fresh ROM ?? Anyway to get it on ?
You could try loading one of the PC36IMG zips on your sd using an adapter to go back to stock and start over
Well I got my phone back on and working with the 2.2 OTA rooted back the way it was. I go into ROM manager and I made sure to do the ClockworkMod Recovery install. When I turn on the phone with vol down + power I select Recovery it just freezes on the Evo 4g screen. Never takes me to the recovery menu like I used to have. Anyone have any idea why??
Let's do a checklist:
1. Full root including NAND unlock (i.e. NOT Unrevoked)?
2. Installed and re-installed latest ROM Manager, and then latest CWM?
3. Copied Fresh 3.1.0.1 to root of SD card?
4. Booted into recovery using either CWM option or power+volume up?
5. You don't have an old PC36IMG.zip on your SD card, do you?
6. If you can get into recovery, do all your flashing from there, and DON'T FORGET to do data, cache, and dalvik wipes.
7. If all else fails, maybe use CWM to flash Amon RA instead and try that way.
8. If all THAT fails, go back to toast's guides and re-root everything.
Other long shots: Install Titanium Backup and use that to install BusyBox. I have no idea if this would help, maybe it's totally unrelated. Also, you could use an app called Quick Boot to reboot into recovery, but if selecting the reboot option from CWM doesn't work, I don't know why QB would.
And one more thing: Don't be throwing the term "bricked" around when you're clearly not even close to bricked.
My friend gave me his phone today, I had previously rooted it for him and installed a rom, he said he tried to flash a gingerbread rom not really knowing what he was doing, and now the phone boots directly to the bootloader screen, it also can go into a green recover, from recovery I try to install zip from sd and sd shows nothing, I'm more familiar using odin with samsung phones so any suggestions would be helpful
You could always take the SD card out and put it directly into your computer and copy a rom to it that way, put it back in phone, boot into recovery and flash from there
From recovery toggle ms ( or something that sounds like that) plug it in via usb then copy a Rom, to the SD card.
Your friend probably formatted everything thing including the sdcard during his attempt to flash, which is why there is nothing there.
If his recovery don't have SD mount, feature (ra has it, clockwork not sure) u will have to pull the SD card and copy a rom to it, or u could possibly use and to push the zip to it,

Simple he forgot to flash the gapps.. AOSP roms you have to flash the gapps separately and if you dont it will boot loop to HBOOT... what rom did he try to flash.. Also please let him know that if he had read the OP fully he would of known to flash the gapps as well. Let me know if this was the problem... Good Luck
Mount usb.since its green im more than likely assuming its Amon RA recovery.connect to PC and copy the ROM of your choice,and follow prerequisites if any.usually a data/dalvik/cache and factory reset via recovery will suffice.then just flash from SD--->chose zip file--->yourromzipname.zip then power to flash.

I tried to flash synergy and it got stuck at white htc screen
Edit:Flashed another rom in hboot with an PC36IMG.zip and worked
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!
i just rooted with s on and i flashed a custom recovery then rebooted. htc logo came up, and then a black screen its been like an hour with the black screen and it wont boot. i know that normally its takes a long time to boot a fresh rom but this is ridiculous. and i made sure that i flashed a cdma rom marvelc. what do i do!!
i can still boot into the boot loader though
Dude im no expert in HTC phones but you had to turn s-off when rooting your phone. If you made a nandroid backup your in luck reflash your stock rom back and this time root with s-off and enjoy flashing plz hit the thanks button if i helped.

Boot into hboot with volume down + power. Scroll down to recovery and push power to enter it. All going well you should go into your recovery. If you get a red triangle with an ! Then you still have the stock recovery.
OK now scroll down and make a back UP!!! After that factory reset the device, wipe cache, dalvik cache. Data. Everything aside from your sdcard. Then reboot the device. This should get your device operational again. Reboot should take no longer than 15 minutes.
After that choose a custom rom to flash, or just go about setting up the phone as you want.
When you go to flash a new rom make sure you back up first, then wipe everything bar SD card. Then install the rom and reboot.
Good luck pal

actually when i was rooting the recovery wasnt working for me the tool tried to made me go into recovery but i was stuck at the htc logo. but the tool also offered to install twrp or clockworkmod i installed clock and still wont stuck at the htc logo so i tried twrp and it worked and then i got rooted.
i think i might be twrp that doesnt install roms right.
also i installed a rom it worked but no wifi and wifi was the most important tool for me so the rom is ussless to me

Thank you you for replying but I did some experimenting around and I found out that the clockwork mod was a marvel recovery
I have a marvelc wildfire so I went to rezo609 folder and found the recovery img and replaced it with a clockwork marvelc img.
Then I opened the prompt selected install clockwork mod, it installed
Then I went to recovery, worked and installed the cm9 rom (marvelc) and gapps and It successfully worked
You were probably right its beta so it has some bugs
But thank you all who tried to help me I really appreciate it
Sorry I just started so I deleted the URL
no problem buddy always happy to help.
Hey guys,
you might think I'm stupid and I won't blame you for thinking that but here's my problem:
I always try new custom ROMs after 2 days. I wanted to try a new one, put the ROM on the storage and all that.
Recovery mode, delete the ROM I had installed and installed the new one with fastboot flash and all that.
Did it a million times and it always worked. Now it won't boot up anymore.
Is there any way to put another custom ROM on the storage whilst being in Recovery?
Thanks for the feedback.
Mount sdcard while in recovery...copy rom then flash

MY One X won't boot up anymore so there's no way for me to normally copy the ROM onto my SD.
Isn't there a way to copy the ROM onto the SD in Recovery?
Hold the power button and the volume down button together .... Keep them pressed until you are in the bootloader, don't let go of the buttons before.
From there you can go to the recovery !

What recovery are you using? If you are using CWM then there is an option in under mounts to mount usb storage. From there you can copy files to and from your sdcard.
Here is a nice little write-up by Hasoon2000 regarding recovering:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069904
If you can get into recovery and you're using TWRP(Not sure if CWM has the option), you can try to ADB Sideload from his tool.
