Hi,
I rooted my phone about a year ago and recently wanted to update it and try a new ROM. Since I have no idea what the compatibility of of my old ROM I made a NAND backup then I reset it to the factory RUU version 3.29.651.5 and my phone was back to normal in the boot loader S was set as S-on.
I then proceeded to use the autoroot v2.5 in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=838448. In the cmd prompt it said it was flashing the firmware, then said it was waiting for the device to boot up; however, the device did not boot up, I waited for approx 60 min and it was stuck on a black screen with the HTC logo in the middle and a small warning (triangle with exclamation point) in each corner. Now, it is permanently stuck on that screen. Even if I try to hold the volume down to get to the boot loader when it starts, it still goes to this screen.
What can I do to try to get out of this? I cant go back to my recovery to get my backup.
Thanks

The first time I tried to Root my phone, I had the same problem with Toasts Root method. That's stock Recovery you're seeing.
I ended up having to use Unrevoked Linux version and swore I would never unroot again, and I haven't.
I've tried using unrevoked and several other methods. The problem is I think most of them rely on the phone being on with USB debugging enabled. I unfortunately can't get there. The one ray of hope I have is that the device is recognized in my device manager as "Android USB device - HTC bootloader". Is there any other way I could fix this?

Are you holding power and volume down at the same time. Sounds like you are just holding volume. When you get to the bootloader I'd you see s-off all you will need to do is flash a PC36IMG of the recovery of your choice(I recommend twrp). Good luck!

Also, no need to unroot for any rom. Once you are rooted you can flash anything you want. Compatibility wise, you may need to update a radio but that is just flashed in recovery.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I am holding power and volume down. Powering it on normally and powering it on while holding volume down both go to the same screen.
Hi,
I've attempted the JB update
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1737899..
fastboot flash boot boot.img etc.. which said all was well..
But now find that my phone will not boot up, doesn't get past the Google and unlock screen.
I've tried all combinations of volume buttons, I can get to the fasboot menu where I can choose either Recovery Mode, Power Off, Start or Restart bootloader.
None of these appear to do anything, recovery goes to the google a screen followed by an Android on it's back with an exclamation mark over it.. then goes to the Google and unlocked icon screen and stays there...
I fear my phone is bricked... Please help..

1.) Your phone is far from bricked at all. You have access to the boot loader (i.e. the screen with the options). The recovery you're seeing is stock recovery. All you need to do is go into boot loader and fastboot flash recovername (CWM) and you will have your custom recovery back to wipe data and reinstall a rom or restore a nandroid backup
Mine is doing the same thing, weird thing is, it was working since yesterday on jellybean, it just randomly froze this morning and and now won't boot..
im currently at work so i don't have admin rights to do a fastboot flash..
any idea why it would randomly stop working when i havn't flashed anything on it besides the jb rom?
Sorted..
Thanks for the comments.. yeah i was over-reacting a bit there..
I downloaded the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit, got a stock rom form gopogle, flashed it.. back to normal, well, it will be after i restore the CWM backup i took.. phew..
Thanks again
Ian.
Still stuck
I'm also stuck in the same situation(google with the unlock screen). I fear I'm a little more stuck. I also can see the recovery/restartbootloader screen. However, everything I try still comes back to that same google screen and gets hung up. Need some help!
this has happened twice today and i think it from using volume+

Boot into recovery, wipe cache, Reboot
Hey everyone, I have a T-Mobile M8, Unlocked, rooted, S-ON and I installed {4.4.4} AxxionKat~1.6.0 {Linaro} 9-13-14. Everything booted as normal, I restored all my apps, etc. I decided to change the DPI settings (which Ive done in numerous other ROMs in the past) to 460 from 480. I made the change, saved the build.prop, and restarted my phone. Instead of booting up and going to the boot animation, its getting hung up at the white HTC screen (where is says "this build is for developmental purposes only" Etc.) then it goes dark. Holding power does nothing. Holding power+vol down does nothing. Holding Power+Vol up will bring it to the white HTC screen again but then it just loops. Any ideas on how to get this thing back in recovery so I can restore a Nandroid? Thanks.
EDIT: Im good now. Back in recovery!
First of all, it's not bricked. If it was, you wouldn't be able to turn it on in the first place. You're thinking of a soft brick.
If you can get into the bootloader, you can just enter recovery (or boot custom) via ADB/fast boot

Soft bricked ya. Well I had it up and running and now I find myself in the same situation I was in on Tuesday. I cant get it into the bootloader in order to enter recovery mode. I hit PWR+VOL UP until the white HTC screen comes on, as soon as the screen goes dark I hold PWR+VOL DOWN which should bring me to the bootloader. The first time, this method worked like a charm. This time around it wont do anything. PWR+VOL UP will get me to the HTC screen but then once the screen goes dark PWR+VOL DOWN does nothing....
So I was about to flash a ROM (viperone), and while I was in aroma I went to the "flash stock kernel" setting and did that, because I felt it probably wouldn't hurt. Well, turns out it broke my phone's ability to boot into recovery, from what I can tell. I can enter fastboot and I tried reflashing the recovery but it still won't go to it when I select that setting. What happens instead is it flashes to the HTC screen then it goes black for a few seconds, then it goes to the bootloader screen (where it has the red message) and it just sits there forever. Did I just completely brick my phone by doing this?
Actually scratch that, I managed to fix it by flashing the GPE RUU. Now I just hope I can figure out how to switch it back to stock at some point.
I first unlocked the bootloader and then flashed the TWRP image, later I flashed AEX 4.6 ROM and then I thought or reclocking the bootloader but when I did it's not booting up. The ZUK Logo appears for a second and screen goes black, the led remains lit and holding the power button for 10 seconds doesn't turn of the device , it restarts again and same thing happens.
Im not able to even access EDL(Emergency Download Mode) to use QPST or MiFlash tool.
Help me guys...
You should really learn to use "FORUM SEARCH". This kind of issue has been resolved and there are few guides available too.
