Hello everyone,
I have been using this website to try out different things with my DHD. Last month I rooted the phone myself and ran jellybean on it. Then I wanted to try android revolution so i wiped that off and copied another rom in it. I went through the installation process but for some reason it did not work properly. Now when i start my phone it boots into recovery mode and if i select reboot now it restarts and shows the Green HTC logo with white screen and then the screen goes total black, as in black light comes up and stays like forever. I am a noob as its obvious so please help in as simple language as possible. Waiting for your suggestions.
Thanks.
add info.

and I cant install another rom either cause if i select any option in recovery mode it restarts and goes to the black screen. I think there is no solution to this problem but if anyone can help that would be great.
S-Off or unlocked bootloader? You could try fastboot flashing another recovery.

Tried to do a battery rest as per the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=755903
I think i did something wrong.
Phone is currently stuck on a screen with a picture of a phone with a red triangle with an exclamation mark.
What do i do?
You're in recovery, press vol up and power and you get a small menu where you can select to apply the clockwordmod update.zip to reset your battery stats (assuming you're rooted)
Thanks so much. I thought something went horribly wrong.
My phone wasnt rooted, so i guess i shouldnt have even tried to reset the battery stats.
Thanks for the help.

Hi,
A long time ago, I believe I updated my HTC Hero with a custom ROM.
I currently have
- 2.1-update1
- SW: 3.32.405.2
I just sold the phone and tried to bring it back to factory settings.
But I can't.
It won't re-initialize and I can't even delete my GMAIL account.
In short, I don't care which version is installed, I just want the phone to be updated with an official ROM, so that its new owner can turn it on and configure it as if it was knew.
The phone is NOT rooted.
If anyone has a hint, I will consider it my XMas present.
Thanks a lot!

Either wipe it from recovery or use a RUU http://www.shipped-roms.com/downloa...io_63.18.55.06P_6.35.15.11_release_signed.exe
Look it up, it's easy.

Mine is doing this too,
I tried rooting during the downgrade process (Because I had gingerbread) next thing that happened was when it would start up, it would take a very long time for the white htc screen to show up, and would vibrate (constantly) for 2 full minutes. the white htc screen would then show "quietly brilliant" under the logo and boot. but now it's going to the phone with red exclamation mark in a triangle. Phone is not rooted, hit power and volume up, went to update zip, told me invalid...
what's next?
*edit*
p.s. htc inspire 4g.
also before black screen w/ triangle I ran hack-ACE to put stock ruu back.
restarted again, and now it's usuable, but still does the looooong boot up.
No touch Screen Sensation
Hi forum I am in desperate need of some help. I have an HTC Sensation with a non responsive screen. There was a software update I believe on the forum that claims to resolve this problem. I want to try an upgrade or something hoping my screen issue can be resolved. My problem is how can I upgrade a stock ICS firmware without the use of the touch screen or touch buttons. Or even root the phone from the boot screen.
Second question can I load my external sd card in another Android phone like to load the software on it and then insert it into the Sensation and then linstall it from the boot screen?
Thanks for your help
Sensation HTC with version 2.3.5 locked
Hi
I have got a problem since this morning and I really need some help. Everything was always working fine, I have a rooted HTC desire, running GingerVillain 1.3.
Yesterday I did an update to GingerVillain 1.4 through gingervillain updater.
The update was ok.This morning I take my phone, and try to reboot it.
And now, it is stuck in a bootloop on the green HTC logo.
I can access to hboot (0.80), but when I try to access to recovery to flash another ROM, I have got the green htc logo, then a black screen.
On this black screen, if I use the power button to wak up the screen, then I can see just one line saying : clockworkmod recovery v2.5.1.0. But I can't see any menu on the recovery.
So I can't boot my desire, I can't flash something else, I am kinda stuck...
I tried removing my SD card, and it is the same thing.
Thanks in advance for your help...
Did you check the feedback about GibgerVillain's update?
Yes I did. It seems that I am the only one with this kind of problem.

That means you did something wrong. Maybe the copy of the download was foul. Do you have S-ON or S-OFF?
Well, I don't know what I could have done wrong, but I have found a solution.
I went into fastboot, plug in to my PC, then launch a flash with an original ROM (RUU).
After that, a little Unrevoked to get root access and install a recovery, and i started again from draft.
Anyway, thanks for your help.
I'm glad you figured it out.
Hey! A'm new here (noob) and i have got some problem with my HTC Desire HD.
I tried to root my phone but unfortunately I failed.
I don't know why but it looks like my phone is briked... I cant run system. I tried go to hboot... it worked but i cant recovery and run factory reset.
Its strange but in hboot screen it writes me S-OFF so its look like my phone is rooted.
So when I try to run my phone (normal) HTC logo shows but it slowly turning from white screen with logo into dark. The same effect is when a try schoose recovery or factory reset.
Please help and sorry for my bad english.

So far, you did half of what you did wrong. this subject has been discussed in these forums over and over, so instead of opening a new thread you need to search and read. Factory reset should never be pressed as it deletes the usb debugging drivers, but you probably missed that part.
If you are S-OFF then flash a recovery from fastboot and then a custom rom..or flash a RUU you like. Use the guide in my signature to find out how.
Yes I know this thread is spam but my problem looks diffrent than normal. Bricked android phones got logo showed all the time but my phone after 5 - 7 seconds is turning into black but device is still working.
The problem is that i have really no idea how to do now. When I rooted it how can I install custom ROM?

you don't need root to flash a custom rom. You need S-OFF and a custom recovery. Read the guide.
Fade to black screen means that your PC connectivity failed way through the process and should have been run again from that screen as stated in the manual.
So, what I have to do now? My phone is rooted and what now? But i think I damaged software in my phone because i cant recovery system.
You are not rooted (you need a ROM to be rooted). You are S-OFF with no custom recovery. There is a section in glevitan's guide explicitly for this very issue.
I don't think you're listening the advice above.....
Have you got a recovery installed? Can you boot into it? If you haven't, flash one in hboot.
From recovery, flash a ROM

Hello, I attempted to install a custom rom to improve my phones performance and stop it being sluggish, but it's backfired.
I was smart enough to back up my phone in Clockwork Recovery, and after I've restored my previous backup, well, my phone isn't booting.
It gets past the white HTC Screen (not Quietly Brilliant, just plain HTC) and for some reason it jumps to a black screen. Doing nothing. Just sitting there. I'm still able to access my HBOOT and Recovery but everything I try seems to get me no where. I tried rebooting and doing a factory reset. I could try another factory reset but I don't know where that would get me.
If anyone has any advise I would greatly appreciate it, thank you.
Daniel.

you can try to flash stock rom..it ll boot for sure..
about your problem it's strange..your backup should hv worked cz you just changed recovery nothing else..
Exactly what I'm thinking, I just done another recovery just to be on the safe side, and now my phone is no longer going to a black screen, instead it's just stuck on the HTC screen. But I'll take up your advise and try a stock rom.
This is the rom I attempted to install: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1515120
I followed all the instructions and for some reason it just didn't agree with my phone and wouldn't boot. Hence me restoring my phone.
Never should have bothered and left it as it was. I'll keep you posted.
Thank you

good luck...if nothing works out..check my work in my signature..you will find flashable stock zips..try anyone just in case..
Right, I just installed the Marvel Stock Rom you have, and it almost boots.
What I mean by this is, it goes through the HTC screen, then reboots.
On the second boot after the HTC screen it throws me back into ClockworkMod. I followed all the instructions you say to do and it still isn't cutting it :-/

Hi,
My HD got into some mad bool loop yesterday. Just out of nowhere. I had AOKP JB rom and it was fine and in the afternoon I noticed it has a boot loop. I didn't do anything to start it at that point, AOKP rom was running fine for more than a week.
Now the problem is I tried ruu rom and recovery and everything and it's still stuck. What I noticed is that the phone vibrates twice through one loop. Once before HTC logo pops up and 2nd time (kind of shorter vibrate than first one) before screen goes black.
Any ideas how to fix that? I can go to HBOOT and Fastboot but when I try to go to recovery it loops again. Phone is S-OFF RL. Please help as I've run out of ideas and patience...
Cheers

If you are S-OFF, then reflash recovery and then a custom rom. Use the guide in my signature to find how to do that.

thanks! Done it but still got stuck in bootloop when I go to recovery. That means that phone is basically dead, right?

If you can not access recovery it is not promising at all. Try flashing a ruu then. If the ruu flashes fine and you are not able to boot, then you have a fried motherboard.
Oh I tried that few times already with no luck. Well, time for another phone... What's gonna' be...
