boot loop after CM6.1 install - can access recovery

Hi peps!
My Desire is stuck within a boot loop (CM6.1 RC1 logo shows up again and again!)
This morning I flashed CM6.1 RC1 with rom manager! I noticed that i flahes it without GApps so I flashed again and now I got this anoying boot loop!
I think that its because of my old radio but strange thing is that it worked before and without the GApps!
in the bootloader screen it says
Radio:4.05.00.11
and when I enter recovery it starts "Android system recovery (2e)" and I cant install a new radio because it says the file isnt certificated!
Whats the best and simplest way to get clockwork mod (I KNOW that I had installed it once on my phone but now it doesnt seem so -.-) or a newer radio onto my phone?
Are there other older roms which will boot/flash with my recovery?
plz help

okay I solved it! The tricky part was, that I had no nandroid backup (anymore) and surprisingly no longer access to clockwork.
I downloaded fake-flash from modaco.com. This packs clockwork into a signed update.zip which can be launched from within the normal racovery.
You can grab it here:

no I reflashed my radio, CM6.1 RC1 and then the gapps!
everything works now

Bootloop
Hey man,
Im getting similar problems when i wiped and installed CM 6.1.
The cm mod logo just reappears, and nothing further happens.
When i press power and volume down, and choose recovery, i just get this exclamation mark with a triangle around the mark over a desire.
Anyone got a suggestion to what i can do? the led seems to work fine.
Any help would be appriciated.
cheers

I HAD to put my sdcard in card reader delete any update.zip that might be on the root of card .Then downloaded opendesire rom from PC.Renamed it to update.zip and put on root sdcard and inserted back in phone.turn phone on while holding back button choose recovery wait for reboot.Then when red triangle appears hold vol up and press power button then release both wait till you see option to apply udate.zip from sdcard use volume buttons to select option then press power wait for new rom to install.That wipe before install was not a good idea think I will use this method to install all roms from now on.

help i downloaded the fake flash and renamed it as update and when i apply in the android system recovery it verifies and loads the bar halfway and stops
it says E:failed to verify whole-file signature E:signature verification failed installation aborted
why doesn't the fake flash by koush work
HELP

Troubles with Installing OTA 1.72.405.3

I have an HD that will not upgrade to OTA 1.72.405.3 it crashes at about 20%
I have to remove battery and restart
Now can someone help me how to get the upgrade running as i installed superuser just to remove some of the apps like amazon facebook ect
I have reset my phone to factory settings and formatted the sd card,
If someone could give me a easy guide..as I dont want to brick it
Thank you

Similar issue here,
i've used su a way ago to remove some pre-installed apps like amazon MP3, facebook, etc. Then played a while with DHD Revolution ROM, then went back to the stock rom (just restored it from a backup). Now i can't update to 1.72: it crashes at about 20%. Tried to do a factory reset, still the same. It says: the md5's for /system/app/facebook.apk don't match.
Does anyone have any ideas how to get the phone completely back to a stock state?

This is what I got from HTC
Thank you for contacting us. In regards to fota update I can help you with that. We advise you to check followings ; If the update fails for some reason this is something the customers can try. The OTA update is downloaded to the phone and is placed in a folder called Download on the SD card. Using a file explorer, browse to this folder and you should find the downloaded update. The file should have an obvious name, beginning with OTA_x_Froyo_....... Tghis file will be a zip file. Rename the file to update.zip. In general, you do not need to put in .zip, as it will already be flagged as a zip file, and doing so would end up with a file called update.zip.zip, which will not work. To run these update follow these instructions: 1. Take the battery out and put it back in without starting the phone. 2. Press and hold the Volume Down button. 3. While still holding Volume Down, press and release the Power button. 4. Keep pressing Volume Down until you see 3 skateboarding androids on the bottom of the screen. release the Volume Down button and wait a few seconds 5. Press Volume Down to navigate to Recovery in the menu and press the Power button to select it. 6. When you see a triangle with a exclamation mark !, press Volume Up and Power at the same time. 7. You should now see blue text and the option to Apply sdcard:update.zip 8. Navigate to it using the Volume keys, and select it using the Power button. The phone will hopefully now install the update and after its done reboot the phone
And this is what happened when I ran it..
I have reinstalled the amazon app.
E/ can't find caceh/recovery/command
If I download the update via settings/about phone/system software updates it says E/ can't find checeh/recovery/command
If i press volume up and the powwer button it then says
Finding update package ... Opening update package... Verifying update package.. Installing update... Copying fotaBoot to /data system for customize reload... Verifying current system... assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/app/amazonmp3.apk".

Anyone had this same problem?? Please help. Is there a way to view E/caceh/recovery/command
Thank you

Update fails if you remove any system apps.
You can still get back to stock by following this guide.
If you update to 1.72 using that method you will loose root forever though.
You can do it this way if you want 1.72 with root.
Oh yeah don't use the root package from that thread. It will keep force closing. Use this one instead.

i removed my system appd.
So now i get the status 7 message as well! How can i get the apps back? :/

Can anyone upload the update.zip file here?

ROM manager don't want to start new ROM

THIS POST IS COPY/PASTE FROM "DESIRE ANDROID DEVELOPMENT"...I THINK THIS IS RIGHT PLACE FOR THIS POST PERHAPS...
Hi there got some problems with ROM manager (latest version from Market)...
I put new LeeDroid on my SD card and when start ROM manager goes to "Install rom from sd card" RM asked me for directory and I "tell" him where the ROM is...when I tap on LeeDroid (.zip) ask me for ROM Pre-installation and I tick both options - OK - press Reboot into Clockwork Recovery and continue the installation. I press OK and nothing happened then
Then tried with untick both options - same thing...
Then I try Reboot into Recovery options and nothing happened again
Then download CyanogenMod 6.1.1. from ROM manager - same thing...nothing happened
But when I Reboot into Recovery mod (Hot reboot app) reboot was successfull and I was making System backup....
What is going wrong there
Please help me
Clockwork mode is 2.5.0.7.
P.S.
Sorry if my english is poor

If the ROM Manager is giving you problems, just install your ROM from the recovery menu

Ok...I'll try now
It's going on......and finished
What now?? Nothing happened after that....I have to put the battery out or what?
I was put the battery out and then start device...i'm in AlphaRev Recovery now and when press "Reboot system now" nothing happened??

You mean you have installed Leedroid from your SD card in Recovery?
Once successfully installed, you don't need to pull out your battery, you just need to find the option in your recovery to restart OR boot up your system.

PLEASE HELP ANYONE!
Finally
Reboot to fastbot was my option and then reboot

you should be selecting [choose .zip from card], then navigate to whatever you named your Leedroid zip.
After this installs and completes, select the option to reboot system, and you're good to go.

I wrote it in a post above
But thanks

Got new problem now...unbelivable...
Put LeeDriod on the device and don't like it....and want to back to my stock 2.2 backup...
But when in Recovery mod put Restore...said MD5 mismatch...and try again but now said: E: failed to seek in /cache/update.zip (invalid argument)
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted
But how?? I was recover once today successfully...what's goin' wrong?

md5 mismatch could mean that the recovery is corrupted?
try turning signature verification off in your recovery to try to fix your signature verification failed problem.
OR try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714114
But I have to ask, when you did you make that backup of that stock 2.2?

I don't really understand what you asked me
I found on xda forum 2.2 stock ROM (rooted) and put it on my phone and fixed all my problems

I recently installed LeeDroId using CWR.
Steps i followed >
1. Download LeeDroId onto SD card.
2. Boot into Recovery
3. BACKUP EXISTING ROM
4. Wipe old rom
5. Install LeeDroId, by navigating to the zip file
6. Reboot once installed
7. WAIT. 1st boot takes about 4 mins.
Done
That worked for me.

[Q] HBoot Questions - PD98IMG.zip?

Good afternoon,
I am having serious trouble trying to install my FOTA from Orange (1.84.xx.x) and with little knowledge available on it, I'm trying to break it down piece by piece.
The phone works fine at the moment with the 1.40.xx.x Firmware on it but I do want to install the update.
I can load in to the bootloader no problem but when I do it hangs for a few seconds before a screen appears saying that it has tried to check PD98IMG.zip but it can't be found. It then says it can't find various connotations of that such as PD98xxx.nbh. Is this an issue?
Would not finding these files result in the phone hanging when I try to put it in Recovery mode? I have the FOTA file on the SD card (in the Download folder where it was downloaded to) and wa hoping that clicking Recovery would boot the FOTA file. It doesn't. The system hangs until I either take the battery out or....
.... I press Vol UP (3 seconds) and tap the Power button. This takes me to a new screen with blue writing (Android system Recovery 3e) that gives me the option to either Boot, Apply sdcard:update.zip, Wipe data/factory reset, Wipe cache partition.
I also have yellow writing on the screen with the message, "E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command". I can only assume that this is quite important - what is wrong?
As for the update.zip, what is it? Should I rename the FOTA file as update.zip? where should it be put on the SD card to make it available to the Recovery menu?
Many thanks in advance,
AC

Android One: Recovery mode warning sign

Hi,
I had previously rooted my device: Android 1 - Micromax Canvas A1. I also had installed CWM on my device. For some reason, I have removed recovery mode and unrooted my device. My device had Marshmallow with February patch.
But whenever I try to get OTA it doesn't get succesfull. Whenever I try to go into recovery mode it shows my dead android with warning sign saying "No command!". When I try to press "Power Key + Volume UP" I get error message saying "Error in @/cache/recovery/block.map (status 7)".
Reading few posts, I understood that some system files got corrupted and I won't get OTA updates. So downloaded one Zip files and I flashed all the *.img files (recovery, system, boot, etc). Now my system had Android 5.1. But I'm getting same error while going into recovery mode.
I also tried to use "Smart Phone Flash Tool " but whenever I click "Download button" it stucks in the same state showing no progress.
I have read many posts and tried many things but I'm stuck at this stage. Can anybody help me out of this problem?
Update: Though I wasn't able to get into recovery mode directly. I (major) updated my device from KitKat to Marshmallow. Then, minor updates also went fine. Now, I'm on latest April 2016 update. Still, when I try to get into recovery mode, I still see "No Command". But after pressing Volume Up + Power button I get the recovery option. Is this default behavior.
