Help! Stuck at htc logo

I spent all night downgrading to froyo, when I was finally at 2.2 I used the visionary method to get temp root, that worked fine, when I tried to get permanent root I couldnt get s-off so I started following another guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835777
I followed all the steps and when I typed in reboot the phone rebooted and got stuck at the htc screen. I tried to turn it on with vol- and power and go into recovery but I got a black screen with a phone and error message, then it rebooted back to the htc screen and is still stuck there.
Please help! this is my only phone and I need it fixed asap
Thanks in advance!

can you enter bootloader? what does it show?

There have been numerous warnings over the past year about Visionary that I have to ask this question: Why oh why did you use it? Rage is a much safer method than Visionary and won't brick your phone at all (rooted three G2's with Rage/Gfree).

Yes, shows

by the time i got back to 2.2 it was almost 4am and i just wanted to get it done i followed the first thread i found.
Yes i know i made a mistake but any help would be apreciated

what is ?
what is your main problem

the problem is it wont load past the htc logo screen

Get a copy of the 2.2 PC10IMG.zip and reboot into your bootloader (Vol. Down + Power). If the bootloader can flash it, you should be able to boot normally. Go to the CyanogenMod Wiki and root using Rage/Gfree.

is there gonna be a problem since i have s-off

I put the PC10IMG.zip in the root of the sd card, turned the phone on (vol- and power) it found the image, there was a loading bar to the right, and then nothing happened after the load. Im still at the same bootloader and if I reboot it is still stuck at the htc screen

Okay, go back into your bootloader and flash the latest ClockworkMod recovery via Fastboot.

I assume I can find the directions on how to load clockwork through fastboot on here. If that does work and I can go into recovery would I be safe to flash a custom rom at that point

Since I will only have time to work on the phone tonight after work and I need it for tomorrow are there any other possible solutions to my problem or would flashing clockwork through fastboot be it?

For fastboot to flash recovery, the image needs to be on your comp. Open up your computer's Terminal, cd to the directory it's in, and type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (without the quotes).
Sent via smoke signal.

nevermind got it
for people that are curious:
have the recovery.img (correct one! this was my problem) in the tools folder of the android sdk, open command prompt from that folder (hold shift and right click)
then run this command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
also phone has to be in fastboot (vol- and power, then select fastboot)
I finally have recovery!
Im gonna try to load a rom now!

It worked! my phone is alive!
Thank you all for your help!

Need urgent help please

I tried flashing a theme using the same .zip of a rom for the One X so what I did was I deleted everything and kept the system and META-INF and now I get stuck at the HTC htc quietly brilliant..Luckily I have made a backup through recovery but whenever I go to recovery it just takes me back to the htc quietly brilliant screen. My computer recognizes the phone and everything and the fastboot commands. I tried reflashing recovery it says successfully but it didn't do anything, I still get stuck. I don't really know what to do afterwards. Can someone be so kind and help this poor guy out? Thank you.

If you can go to fastboot mode.
In fastboot mode, try "fastboot erase cache"

Thanks for the replies guys..I relocked and then unlocked the bootloader and reflashed recovery. It deleted my backup. Now my phone has no rom to boot. I tried running the ruu.exe but it says it won't recognize my phone. Everythime I plug my phone on my computer my phone lights up and my computer makes a beep noise

Are you already in the fastboot folder with the RUU?
For detailed instruction for unbricking or reverting to stock, there's a thread for that in devs section.

If your bootloader is unlocked, just fastboot flash cwm recovery, flash su thru recovery, then do a full wipe and install a rom.

Thanks for your reply. I have tried that and it didn't work. Pardon my ignorance but I downloaded cwm recovery and renamed to the zip and flashed with ad card,formatted fat32. Recognized and went thru with the blue bar, the parsed after that it did not attempt to reboot, but went back to regular screen? Did I miss something. I was forced to get another phone cuz my dincs been down Went with the rezound but really want my dinc fixed. Thanks so much for any advice I can get.

[Q] Weird bootloop issue

Alright, so I dun goofed. If some kind soul could help me with this, or just point me in the right direction.
How I dun goofed:
I used the All-In-One Toolkit to unlock bootloader and flash a custom recovery. After that I pulled the boot.img out of the PrimoC CM10 rom and used the toolkit to flash that as the kernel (I realize now this was extremely stupid).
Symptoms:
Cyanogen loading screen comes up and just hangs there. When hboot runs it says "SD checking...Loading...[PK76DIAG.zip] No image! Loading [PK67DIAG.nbh] No image! etc etc etc" eventually, though, I can access the bootloader and from there, the recovery. But when I try to restore my original set up and then reboot the stock Virgin Mobile rom does the same thing and just hangs on the HTC loading screen.
Details:
-Virgin Mobile (CDMA)
-bootloader unlocked, custom recovery (TWRP v2.2.0)
I've tried everything I can think of. I've used the recovery's restore feature, I've tried to reflash a different kernel. Nothing
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Is there a way to reset the DHD if it is not booting and CWM recovery is malfunctioni

Hey pals. I have an issue with my DHD...I am running CyanogenMod 10.1 and yesturday someone messed with the developer options and chose to emulate a 1024x760, or something like that, display. The phone froze and I had to remove the battery to shut it down...However when I try to do a factory reset through CWM recovery the phone freezes on the HTC logo and when I try to boot It freezes before reaching the home screen. I realized that this phone can't boot normally now cos the display emulation i talked about earlier is causing an issue, and the situation has been complicated by the fact that I cant use CWM recovery...So I cant acces the phone completely...So I am wondering if there is a way to undo that setting without using CWM recovery...Something like maybe removing the battery or opening it up n remove something for some time etc. Any help will be appreciated.

How did you root?

You are s-off dont use ruu, it may make you s-on.
Press Fastboot then do the flashing from cmd cd to your your-android-sdk-folder-location-here/platform-tools/fastboot.exe like cd c:/android/ then do fastboot flash recovery.img and make sure you have recovery.img in your tools folder. You can find a .img from the thread I posted previously (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2317202&d=1381475742) in this example extract it place .img in the platform-tools location and rename the .img to recovery.img

Flashing a ruu wont make you loose s-off, it makes you loose root. Two completely different things.
Your issue happened when you did the factory reset.
One possible solution is to:
Flash ruu
Flash a recovery
Flash rom
As long as your phone is recognized by your pc (which may not due to having done tue factory reset - can't remember if it does or doesn't), then you should be good to go.

Unfortunately the PC is not recognizing the phone anymore...Do u think I can do it by SD card...i.e renaming the stock ROM or Recovery to PD98IMG.zip and putting it on the root of SD card? I guess the solution has to not involve USB connectivity

Sounds reasonable, but not quite sure. I can't remember if you can flash a rom that way. I would suggest to do a proper search, read and see what you can find in that regard.

Well in my research (back in 2010) to flash a ruu with a previous version you need a gold card. After you get the ruu as a PDxxxxx.zip format (look for a desire hd one as others will brick your phone) and place it in the root of your sd card. Reboot your phone in recovery and press vol+ to flash, and wait for 10-20mins and your phone should be alive.
Some sd's dont work with gold cards (in my experience, a kingston 16gb didn't work but a samsung 8gb did for some reason)

I guess the journey just ended...I renamed the touch recovery zip file to PG....zip and booted into bootloader.
