[Q] Can't boot into recovery - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

Hello.
I recently flashed the blackrose hboot on my Verizon Droid Incredible 2. It flashed successfully but I lost access to recovery. I tried flashing all different recoveries available on the internet but none work despite being flashed successfully. Now I cannot install any ROM and am stuck with no root (after I flashed a stock ROM). Does anybody have any idea how to downgrade from blackrose hboot? I tried revolutionary but it says hboot 2.03 is not supported.
Any help is appreciated.

Help! Cant access recovery

Hi guys, I rooted my phone (2.1 stock/unbranded) using unrevoked, then I flashed my ROM with OpenDesire using clockworkmod. After that I can't access clockworkmod so I installed ROM Manager and flashed it again (works).
After that I flashed it again with updated* HTC 2.10 ROM from forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=741663, then bootloop. So I removed the battery, and now I can't access the recovery(only hboot or whatever you call it).
What should i do guys?
Do you have s-off? Flash a new recovery from fastboot if you do, you can run a stock htc ruu from fastboot too, s-off isnt needed for that.

sounds like you dont have a recovery installed. i'm assusimg unrevoked provided you with S-OFF in hboot. use the file located here:
http://www.multiupload.com/H89AODJPP5
rename the file pc36img.zip, it will flash Amon_RA modified recovery for your phone. provided you have S-OFF, once this is complete, reboot into recovery and you should be able to flash any rom of your choice.

[Q] ClockworkMod Recovery update

Hi
I'm trying to update ClockworkMod recovery in my Desire from version 2.5.0.1 to something newer. I've tried using Rom Manager to do this, but it didn't help. I've also tried running unrevoked again, but after completing the process, recovery still says it's version 2.5.0.1 . Any ideas how to update it?
I want to update it, because current version has some problems with ext4 partitions.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
best bet is to s-off and fastboot flash
Ok, but why unrevoked is not working? The point is, that i can try to S-OFF it, but I'm afraid the result will be the same (apart from having S-OFF phone).
because you're trying to root a rooted phone. Installing recovery is only part of the process and running unrevoked on a rooted phone only sometimes works.
Unrevoked flashes 2.5.0.7, unless before connecting the phone, you have selected an alternative recovery image you downloaded on your PC and if you are already rooted, it wont even do that sometimes.
If you're definitely running unrevoked properly and selecting an alternative recovery and it still doesnt work, then you have to do what I said.
Ok, thank you for explanation. I think i'll pass with S-OFF for now.

[Q]Stuck at white htc screen

Hi there,
After unlocking my Desire HD with the official HTCdev bootloader unlock service I installed Clockwork 5.0.2.7111102. From here I installed SuperUser 2.3.6.3 and it seems I have root access.
Both through ROM Manager as manual through ClockWork I have tried to install several custom ROMs. I did wipe the user data beforehand etc. But after reboot every time it keeps hanging at the white HTC screen.
I havent made backup of previous version. My phone is stuck completly. I can do nothing but only new rom..
Can someone please help me with this issue? Many thanks!
Additional info:
S-On
HBoot 2.00.0029
Radio 26.14.04.28.M
Android 2.3.5
HTC sence 3.0
Software 3.12.405.1
Kernel 2.6.35.10-9931a37e
When you unlock using the HTC dev method you have to flash the boot.img separately.
Take the boot.img of whatever rom you want and flash it by running
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
For future reference the correct method is
1)flash rom in recovery
2)boot back into hboot and flash roms boot.img
4ext recovery has a new option of flashing boot.img when son all in the same step.(make it similar process to soff devices

You need to switch to S-OFF in order for flashing to be successful. Use this then once you boot into Hboot and see S-off, then you can try to flash the rom...

[Q] Re-install stock recovery WFS-VM-USA

Hi ho, all. Maybe one/some of you can shed some light on this...
I have a WildfireS (CDMA, Virgin Mobile in the US, S-OFF RL hboot-1.06.0000 microp-0354 Radio-0.94.00.0824)
It was rooted with installed CWM recovery, but I had to reinstall the stock ROM from RUU.
I want to install the stock recovery, since I think the CWM recovery is prohibiting an OTA update that I need to get back root.
Question is this:
If I put the correct version of the stock recovery on an SD card as PG76IMG.zip, the recovery should find it, recognize it and replace the currently installed CWM, right? This has not worked for me in the past and I'm wondering if it's an issue with the versioning of the .zip, or if flashing using this approach is somehow flawed. The RUU that I used worked, so I should be able to flash the recovery from the same RUU, right?
Tangentally, is there a reason that Shipped-roms doesn't list USA roms for WFS, i.e. Marvel? Lawyers?
Thanks in advance,
VS
