Well good news is, it's not bricked.
What error do you get when restoring the nandroid? Also have you checked the md5 of the rom you flashed and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes after flashing.
You can also mount your sd as mass storage in recovery and copy a new rom on to it and flash that.

Go to recovery and do a full wipe if you haven't allready.

[Q] I cannot seem to restore my nandroid back up

I have a Telus DHD and I just temprooted the phone and installed clockworkmod 3.0.0.5. I did a nandroid backup and when I go to restore the it after trying out several roms, it won't boot past the HTC screen. I tried starting over and installing the stock Telus rom and nandroid backup again and restore and still the same thing. Does anyone have this problem?

I'm not 100% sure but I think the problem is the CWM version. Did you make the backup with CWM 3.0.0.5?

You need permanent root and s off (I recommend eng s off).
Follow the guides in the development section.
Also try a non 3 series clockworkmod recovery if you're using a 2.2 rom.

how would i change the rom manager if i cannt boot the phone passed the htc screen please help

Ok. Don't worry, this can be repaired.
First you need to see if you can reboot into recovery.
Take the battery out and restart the phone by holding volume down and power. This will take you to the bootloader. Then using the volume buttons scroll down to recovery and select using the power button.
Next you should get a screen with the red triangle on it. When you see this, hold volume up and press power. Then select wipe data factory resest. This will wipe all your data but ce la vie dude.
If this doesn't work you need to flash a pd98img.zip file from the bootloader. Get back to me and I'll help if needed. Good luck.

Don't restore. It won't work without soff and perm root. Factory reset the reboot. Does your phone reboot without trying to restore?

in hboot it says eng s-off

Can you reboot without restore? Do you have sdk on your pc?

i dont have sdk and when i reboot it stays on the htc white screen and goes no further i have to remove battery and hold down and power to get to hboot and recovery from there takes me to cwm 3.0.0.5

Ok. So we need to flash on older clockwork. Email me and I'll reply with the files you need then I'll talk you through flashing the recovery from fastboot. You have the wrong version of clockwork. The one you have is for 2.3 based roms.

[Q] Possibly bricked Desire HD

Hi all,
I have a friend's Desire HD which is just going into a boot loop (ie. booting to HTC white screen and then restarting). The phone has not had any modifications like S-OFF, CWM, etc. done to it, so it's basically like a vanilla phone. I can get into fastboot, but I can't flash CWM onto the phone to install a new ROM due to the security. Any ideas where I can go on from here to try and fix this phone?

[Q] Please help im stuck!?

Hi Guys I recently flashed CM9 ICS from mclaw and decided to move to the Orange light rom, I wiped and then flashed the zip through CWM but now the phone does not get passed the samsung logo. I Then proceeded to flash a stock 2.3.6 through odin but still the problem persists I am now without recovery and ideas.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do a factory reset and wipe sd-ext and dalvik , first boot can take some time...

Try the gio ext4 converter first before flashing.

Thank you for the quick feedback but since flashing stock I am now without CWM. Is there a way of getting it working through odin?

Try one of these Recovery's from phiexz.
You can flash them with Odin.

Thanks guys the issue is resolved! I flashed cwm recovery and with that the phone booted normally although I still don't know what the issue was!

CWM Format system data and sdcard [HELP]

Hi
I'm looking for help. I totally messed up my Xperia Play. Phone has been rooted and flashed. What I have done was using CWM i have formatted system data and sd card. Now phone not even want to boot, just black screen with Sony Ericsson in the middle. PC not recognised USB connection. Is there any way to bring it to life ?
Thanks in advance.

Flashed any roms?

Look after some tutorials about fast boot flashing if you don't know how. If you do then just find any kernel and flash it. If you can enter Cwm then simply flash the ROM which suits your kernel.
