Hi there,
today I definitely ****ed up my phone.
So: I tried the Ice Cold Jelly 4.3 CR, everything worked, but it was pretty unstable and the batterylife was horrible.
So I decided to go back to ARHD 31.3 but in a hurry I forgot to flash the boot.img ( kinda dumb ).
So now I'm stuck in the bootloader and ( I don't know why ) the phone doesn't get recognized by my PC ( Win 8.1 ), the recovery doesn't work ( CWM 5.8.x.x ) and the phone doesn't boot in the installed Rom ( of course ).
Any Ideas? thx

Well thanks a lot, but this doesn't help me, because, as I already wrote, the phone doesn't get recognized by my pc, so there is no fastboot commands possible.
Pc says the connected usb device seems to be broken please reconnect and try again
And what happens if you go in recovery to mounts and storage and mount the phone to the pc?
If it doesnt work out I suggest you flash philz recovery which also has updated touch drivers. The phone should pop up and you'll be able to copy a Rom to flash.
If that doesnt work reinstall drivers.

When I trie to get into recovery the phone loads CWM and shows it for a sec, but reboots as if it would crash.
So there is no Recovery to load into.
I can't install another recovery because the phone doesn't get out of fastboot mode.
I tried nearly al kind of drivers but none of em worked.

I tried factory reset, well actually I managed to get into fastboot with the phone getting recognized by my pc. Now my battery is to low to flash and i'm running the charge .bat script, hopefully it'll work

Pretty sure it will, after you have enough battery to flash stuff
flash philz touch recovery (recommended)
go to mounts & storage > mount usb storage
take a ROM zip of your choice and copy it once it recognizes.
Do a full wipe
flash the .zip file
reboot to bootloader and flash the boot.img

Hi Guys. I have a one X, that has a version of android revolution about 3 months old on it.
Today, when I try to boot up, the phone gets stuck at the HTC logo.
I can get into CWM recovery (5.8.3.1 - I have tried:
wipe davlik, wipe cache ,
fix permissions..
& wipe data/factory reset,
but.. still it gets stuck at the android screen
I have no cwm backups and no rom zips on the phone..
how do I go about pushing a fresh rom to the phone.. ?? I am at a bit of a loss..
If I go advanced / mount usb storage (from cwm), I get
E:\unable to open ums lunfile...(no such file...
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Thanks,
Dean.
Update the the latest version of CWM, it was last updated in June, it fixes mounting USB.
Try reflash your kernel as well.
Update CWM to the latest , 5.8.4.0 and then fresh install the latest 9.4.1 ARHD available Should work fine
After updating to 5.8.4.0, do from pc a

Download any custom recoveries , go into fastboot mode , plug in ur usb , fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and voila ! :good:
I tried installing a custom rom today and I think I messed up really bad, because my phone does not get pass the boot screen and I cannot enter the recovery setting. I think I messed up after entering
fastboot flash boot boot.img
in the command prompt and restarting because I forgot to put the rom zip on my phone. Since then I could not get pass the boot screen and even tried running a backup using CWM, but it didn't help. I then managed to mount my phone and put the rom onto it and installed it, but again it didn't help.
Now my phone can only enter the bootloader, I select hboot and fastboot, but nothing else works. Everytime I select recovery or factory reset I get the htc boot screen and it gets stuck. Does anyone have any solutions?
Thanks
did u backup your phone rom???
if you did u can go to recovery and restore it
and never try to change rom again trust me in that
otherwise i can't help bcuz i did the same mistake
I did make a backup, but like I said I can't enter recovery anymore, so I can't load the backup.
Thanks for trying to help anyway though.

What HBOOT version do you have and what custom ROM are you trying to install?
edit: you didn't need to restart after changing boot.img cause in Recovery you can just go Advanced and then mount USB and copy the ROM or whatever files you want that way.

I have hboot 1.39.0000 and I was trying to install the latest cyanogenmod cm-10-20130106-NIGHTLY-endeavoru.
Yeah I realized this after I restarted and did it get the zip onto the phone. I think I installed it, but the phone is still stuck on the boot screen
UPDATE: Okay I've managed to install CWM recovery, so I think I'm making progress
You had to flash CWM again? Odd..
Anyway, if you happen to encounter the same problem with CM10 I suggest you try some other custom ROM.. Just make sure you "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and then "fastboot erase cache", and if for some reason you decide to format the sdcard or simply forget to add in the ROM zip, you can do it in Recovery when you mount the device as USB under Advanced options. Best of luck!

Yeah CWM didn't load up, but I got it working again. Well it seems I'm back to getting the rom to install and being stuck at the boot screen again, so maybe I just need to use a different rom. Thanks for the help though
Okay, I've tried installing a few roms, but unfortunately I'm still on the boot screen, I can sometimes even reach the cyanogenmod boot screen, but get stuck there. I've read that this might be kernel issue, does anyone have any ideas?
CM10 requires a special boot.img for newer hboots. Check post 9308 in CM10 thread.

I woke up today to a bootloop. After pulling out the battery, I cant turn it on, it was stuck at the google logo. I thought it was some rom issue or something. When I had the time, in the afternoon, I just boot to recovery, and wiped data+sd card. Turns out sd card was not wiped.
Just now, I found a way to boot it. (AFTER WIPING DATA) I used the gnex toolkit and boot with insecure image, and guess wat? My old rom boots. Everything was the way it was, and then it crashed and stuck on the google logo again.(I made sure i wiped things two to three times, data and sd) I did a few experiments:
1) Flash using ODIN
2) Flash CWM using toolkit--it changed back to twrp after reboot
3) Changing the icon on my homescreen after boot--- everything was the same again after booting
4) Flash stock image using toolkit
5) Wipe data using manual adb
6) Try to lock my bootloader
Everything I tried changing, change back to the original state after reboot. What is the problem?
Device: Galaxy Nexus
ROM: Purity 7 sept release
Kernel: Fancy r42
Logs in twrp are showing updating partition, not FAIL. So I really don't think there is a need to show the recovery log.
HELP ME!
are you flashing your recovery or just booting the recovery?
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
use ClockWorkMod. I've heard nothing but problems with TWRP.

Oem unlock will unlock your bootloader and wipe the internal storage in the process. I saw you didn't use fastboot. You could try that. Flash the Factory image via fastboot. If that fails try omap flash.

Yup,I tried it already thru toolkit. Not working either.
Dude the toolkit blows, flash back to stock manually via adb command prompt. There are tutorials around here on how to do it. It's guaranteed to work if you don't screw it up.
Honestly flashing back to stock via adb should be something everyone should learn if you plan on flashing roms.

Howdy Everyone,
So just tried rooting my new m8 and now I'm stuck endlessly booting into TWRP. I thought I did everything correctly: Unlocked the bootloader, installed the USB drivers, installed the ADB fastboot drivers and then flashed twrp 2.7.0.3. I get to the the htc logo screen/warning and, bam, back to twrp everytime.
Does anyone know how to fix this??? The last time i was rooting and installing custom mods was back in samsung galaxy s2 days, so my knowledge is a little dated. Please help!!
Try flashing the recovery again. Download it from the link provided here and confirm the md5 checksum for the zip file.

I encountered this issue as well. I'm almost certain that when you were flashing recovery, you used this command "fastboot flash boot recovery.img".
The right command should be "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img".
To rectify the issue look for a tread that has the boot.img for your specific M8 model and flash boot back using " fastboot flash boot boot.img".
This should fix the issue you are having

I followed the instructions on the TWRP site:
Download the above file. Save it to the root of your /sdcard directly (internal memory only) and rename it to twrp.img
Launch terminal emulator or connect to your computer and open an adb shell, then type the following:
su
dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p43
Then reboot to complete installation.
But that left me in a TWRP bootloop. Can you please give me step by step instructions on how to get out of this bootloop?
Thanks!
First off, being a noob and using dd without even knowing what partiton you're writing to is extremely dangerous.
Just use fastboot.
plug phone into PC in fastboot mode.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrpfilename.img
fastboot erase cache
on phone go back to hboot, select, recovery
In TWRP go to wipe, then swipe for a factory reset (Advanced wipe cannot properly wipe cache and dalvik after fastboot erase cache)
then go to advanced, select cache, dalvik and system and swipe to wipe those partitions.
then go to install, select the rom on your phone and flash. follow on screen instructions.
If you don't have the rom on your phone for whatever reason,
connect your phone, while in TWRP to your PC then, using adb on your PC
Code:
adb push romfilename.zip /sdcard/
Wait until it completes with bytes sent.
Then flash using method listed above.
Be careful if you want to keep your phone. I stress this, if you don't know what a command you are issuing does, exactly, DO NOT DO IT until you look it up and understand what you are doing. There is great risk even when you know what you're doing. There's a LOT more when you don't.

Thanks for the detailed instructions. I opened fastboot on my PC with phone plugged in and entered the code but the cmd prompt just says <waiting for device>
Do you have the HTC drivers installed on your PC with HTC sync uninstalled?
Does it say fastboot USB on your phone?

You need cwm recovery to factory reset from cm roms.
Also you need to be in FASTBOOT mode for it to detect your device.
Boot to fastboot, erase cache, reinstall twrp.
Next time reset/wipe from recovery.

Hi Everyone,
Tried to flash a rom. Wiped Data and cache the rom failed to install now im at a boot loop, I tried the "All in one" tool but it doesnt successfully flash the proper factory image.
Is there a way to get access to the internal SD card to put another ROM on there?
Im at a complete loss.

fastboot flash your system back to stock. You'll probably lose all your data though.
If you are able to boot twrp.img (without flash zip then), and connect your device to a computer you can open storage and extract some files before wipe to go back to stock, at least

This. You could try removing the -w in the flash all script when you fastboot flash the stock image so it doesn't wipe everything but it probably won't boot (won't hurt anything though if it doesn't). If it still doesn't boot then you're gonna have to wipe and start over.
take this opportunity to learn how to flash files manually. ive seen All-in-one's brick devices and cause problems that simply can be solved by the tool.
a working set of adb + fastboot drivers and you have the most powerful tool when it comes to recovery.
as for your question, get fastboot drivers, download factory image, and flash it from the bootloader.
I appreciate the feedback everyone.
