[Q] Problem with Gingerbread, stopped at HTC Splash screen

Hello to all XDA-members
I have a problem with a Desire, I had installed the Gingerbread RUU from HTC. I used revolutionary to gain S-Off and it worked so than I choosed the option to install CWM which revolutionary offered me, the flashing was succesful, but when I tried to enter recovery I always stopped at the HTC splash screen and than nothing happen. So the problem is I can't access Clockworkmod.
I tried many other CWM-version like 4.0xxx or 3.02xxx, AmonRA, but always the same result.
I tried it with fastboot and also to boot the image "fastboot boot CWM.zip" and again it hangs by the HTC Screen.
Desire info:
In the Bootloader screen I see this:

and here is the Info that the Fastboot Commander tool showed by print device info:

I have a 4GB SanDisk MicroSD(HC) Class 2, I'm thinking about to partition the SD card, maybe this can solve the problem, I would be very happy if you can show me a good tutorial how to do it (maybe than recovery work). I noticed something too, when I'm entering fastboot (the menu where recovery is) it always looks into the SDcard for some images:
SD Cheking...
Loading...[PB99DIAG.zip]
No image!
Loading...[PB99DIAG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Loading...[PB99IMG.zip]
No image!
Loading...[PB99IMG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Maybe it's looking to Update the Current ROM......hope someone can help me!

first of all: it is supposed to look into the sd-card for those files. Nothing wrong there.
second: my quote indicates that the recovery you are flashing is in zip format. this isn't right. It must be in .img format. To flash the recovery correctly download rom manager from the market and press flash recovery.
If you can't boot to your rom, flash the following .img file using fastboot commands: http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.1.0-bravo.img

I'm sorry it was my writing mistake .zip I used .img, tried now the recovery 5.0 but why it hangs at the HTC splash screen when I try to enter the recovery.....? I don't know what I'm doing wrong, must I wait 10min to enter CWM?

No you must not. Have you tried to make "rom manager" flash the recovery for you? it should work just fine.

Just tried ROM Manager too, but it says "An errir occurred while attempting to run privileged commands" SuperUser is not installed.

Installing SuperUser?

Solved
Hey Guys just want to say that my problem is solved, I flashed this Recovery "RMD Recovery v1.0.3.4" and all is good now, thank you all for your support.

In bootloader mode run the following command - fastboot getvar version-main. That will tell you the RUU version you will need to flash to get back to complete stock as the rom you currently have may be customised and the update will not be successfully applied to that rom. You will then need to locate the necessary ruu (try here) and flash that with a locked bootloader.

Btw i tried to put the phone to bootloader mode and select the fastboot. My only selections are
HBOOT
REBOOT
REBOOTLOADER
POWER DOWN
It doesnt have the "fastboot getvar version-main"..

You got to have HTC drivers installed on the pc, and you also need the fastboot files on the pc. When you put the phone in the bootloader menu you should see "fastboot usb" when you connect the phone to the pc.
Then you open a command prompt in the fastboot folder and type the command
Fastboot getvar version-main

Do not unzip the rom. rename it to the p769img.zip and put in on the root of your sd card and then go to your bootloader and let it install it from there. your custom .img and recovery will be deleted and replace with stock

Thank you for your answer. But I also tried this version and it doesn't work: model ID incorrect update fail

Hmm. Try different ruu's to do this, one is bound to work

LCA43 wont accept "New" Kernel (Battery Fix)

Hello! I have recently used Pc Companion and went from Stock to LCA43 and flashed Twrp successfully. Now im attempting to flash New Kernel and flash appears to be successful but...upon reboot and checking kernel with adb command (adb shell cat /proc/version) and it continually shows old Kernel with Swan signature. Prior to this upgrade from Pc Companion i was running LDZ22D and flashed New Kernel and first attempt was flawless. but i cant seem to get LCA43 version Kernel to take.
Question: I wonder if my reboot process after flashing new kernel is preventing the install successfully or at somepoint should i be Wiping Cache and data maybe before the reboot? I have tryed Fastboot Continue, Fastboot Reboot, Fastboot Boot New_boot.img , but no matter what or how i reboot the SW3 it continues to boot on old Kernal after flashing new Kernel every time. Am i doing something wrong?
Please Help as User: Zr1 and myself are having same issues at this time. Thankyou in Advance

MotoDave I figured out the problem' You have to check version in normal system boot mode for adb to see the kernel version.

Yes!...You are Correct!. Kernel was not seen from Recovery mode. But by connecting USB before booting up watch, i was asked ( during boot) if i allowed ABD Debugging and i selected always allow. After Watch booted i could then check Kernel and it displayed CrPalmers Kernel resulting in Success!!!
Thankyou Zr1 for your Expertise im glad somebody here could help!

Download this.
Rename the .zip to 0P6BIMG (that's a zero, not the letter)
Put it onto you extSD, then boot into bootloader. (power off your phone, then boot it up while holding both power + vol down)
Choose hboot if it doesn't automatically (it should) and follow the prompts. (vol up to flash, power to reboot)
That's it. Super easy.
Be sure to delete the renamed file from your extSD afterwards, otherwise every time you boot to bootloader it'll try to update again.

It'll update you too the latest stock.
You'll also lose all your data, so back everything up that is important to you first.
I forget to mention that sometimes, but making a backup and saving it to your extSD before doing any flashing should be already known if you are on XDA imo. But since people here don't always adhere to that rule, I'll mention it here.

That error indicate that your device MID is wrong.
You need to have MID 0P6B10000 for OTA.
Check your current MID by running command fastboot getvar mid
after you put it on bootloader/fastboot and connect to PC
