Hi
I recently managed to get 2.3.3 and s-off using tacoroot revolutionary method.But whenever I try to flash a custom rom using CWM or 4ext recovery,the phone gets in bootloops.
Here are the steps I performed to flash the firmwares-Kindly tell if I am missing something.
Downloaded and copied the firmwares to sd card(checked md5sum too wherever applicable).
Cleared cache,dalvik
Chose install zip from sd card and selected and flashed.
installation goes well.Phone boots but after getting into homescreen,it turns off itself and restart again(it happened with ViperINC and no homescreen at all ,just bootloops and finally gets into recovery with Unofficial Multilang MIUI4 - v 2.11.30 (CDMA + GSM) )
Please guide.:crying:

Please I need your help.
I have rooted my HTC desire (not sim locked) with software Unrevoked and work great. The version of Clockworkmod is 2.5.0.7 and I found newer 2.5.1.2-bravo from this site. I can`t put the new version via ROM manager and Unrevoked.
I use custom rom: latest version of MIUI
ROM manager:
tryid with recoveries and select 2.5.1.4 and get error "An error occurred while ndonloading your recovery"
Unrevoked:
Select the .img file and phone boots twice and nothing happens.
Can you maybe tell me what is going wrong....
PS: I can put custom rom and partition my micro sd without problems.
Hi,
I have CWM 2.5.0.1 on my desire after I rooted it with unrevoked in august.
I tried couple of times to update it to newer version and saw it working but after rebooting the desire and going into recovery with power button + vol. minus, I always see that it came back to the older version.
How to update it so it stays the updated version forever ?
Flash it properly and not through ROM Manager/a ZIP file
How to flash it properly ? Please explain.
Thanks
When you root with unrEVOked flashes a permanent version of a custom Recovery - either CWM or AmonRA (if you choose custom). If you then use ROM Manager (which is rubbish) it will load the latest one as a 'fake flash' which won't be there next time you load recovery.
You'll need to run unrEVOked again and flash the new CWM image if you want it
Thank you for explaining this to me.
Ok, Tried what you said with unrevoked and at the end unrevoked gives me an error: failed to get root. Is your firmware too new ?
I have baadnewz insertcoin 1.8f dhd rom and already rooted from august.
checked and still on the boot the recovery is 2.5.0.1 of CWM.
I choose custom recovery and tried to flash 2.5.0.7 CWM.
Can't understand what wrong with it.
Why do you need the new version? If you've already got CWM then just stick with it
Because I have an old version that causes some problems when I flashed insertcoin dhd rom.
Also tried with adb in fastboot and got an error that said signature verifaction error.
I'm stuck with cwm 2.5.0.1 :-(

Go get Android Flasher and then just use that to flash the recovery image.
Hi all,
I tried to install the latest cyanogenmod -6.1.2.-DesireHD rom to DHD, and tried the steps given below, after that at the time of reboot the phone hangs shows only HTC logo on white back ground.
The steps followed are :
1. rooted the phone using Visionary( r14 ) as mentioned and tesed with the terminal emulator.
2. Installed engineering version of HBOOT to get S-Off, it was done successfully.
3. Installed RomManager premium and installed clockworkmod recovery 3.0.0.5.
4. Took the backup and installed cyanogenmod -6.1.2.-DesireHD.
Installation is proper and after rebooting it shows the HTC logo with white background initial picture and hangs.
I tried to restore the phone back to normal by selecting backup image from the restore option of clockworkmod recovery here also the same thing hapend.
Can any one help me getting back the phone.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
cjag
The problem is your clockworkmod. Put CM7 rom to your SD, do a full wipe and flash. It will work. Other option is to flash older clockworkmod in fastboot, search for instructions.

Hello guys,
I rooted my WF with AlpharevX, I flashed then CM7 nightly build and yesterday CM7.1 RC1. Afterwards I realised that my GPS doesn't work. I wanted to reflash my radio, I have CMW 3xx, so it is not possible to flash it from recovery. I wanted to boot to recovery directly from ROM Manager, where I have 2.5.0.7, but when it reboots I receive only boot image, when I hit the power button I land in Recovery menu but it says, that it is 3xx version. I tried to reflash radio from there but of course I receive error message.
Have you any ideas, why it is like that?
I think, I could try to convert radio with amend2edify and then try to flash it from recovery, have someone tried this?
Reinstall CWM 2.x from ROM Manager. Someone tried to convert the radio file using Amend2Edify, and it didn't work.
Will help in booting to 2.x recovery.
Have u flashed 2.5.0.7 recovery from rom manager. If yes, it will be present in sdcard /clockworkmod/ downloads folder.
First boot into 3.x recovery then install zip from sdcard. Then choose zip from sdcard and selected the path and file. Then it gives 2.x recovery on the fly. And remember radio flashing is sensitive.

thx for answers
2.5.0.7 is present in sd/clockworkmod/downloads, so I try to flash it from recovery and then reflash radio. I know it is sensitive, but it seems that I don't have any other choice. I will reflash the same version that I have, so it shouldn't be harmful. then I will go back to newer CWM Version
done, GPS works
So I already did s-off. My new issue is, I am trying to install a rom, but CWM freezes/restarts at random in recovery (CWM)
I don't know what to do. If I try it enough times I can eventually install a rom.
I followed the instructions, after many attemps I was finally able to install the rom along with the patch and the extra files as listed in the instructions. The system hangs in the HTC logo. Why?
Download partitioning zip, unzip to desktop
You get 3 files, put them on the root of your SD card
Reboot in recovery
Make nandroid backup
Format system
Factory reset
Wipe battery stats
Install MTD-recovery.zip
Reboot in recovery
Install rom zip
Install MTD-boot.zip
If you need a patch, install it now
I tried CWM 5.8.X.X (the touch screen version) and it does the same thing! It freezes at random, most of time I can not install a rom, and when I do it just hangs in the HTC logo. I don't understand what the problem is I already have S-Off, I already flashed CWM using fast boot so why am I still having this issue?
Someone please help me.
I found this thread and it has CWM 4.0.1.5, I installed it and solved all of my issues. I can install roms with no issues. I don't understand why I needed that version while the version I was given was 5.0.2.8 for cdma phones.
