I have a M8 Developer edition.
It was running TWRP recovery when I downloaded the 4.4.3 OTA and of course it failed to flash.
My existing Rom version is 1.54.1540.9 so I downloaded and flashed the 1.54.1540.9 stock recovery.
When I try to apply the OTA it starts flashing the update, and the progress bar moves about 1/3 of the way across, and then it stops and brings up the black screen with the phone picture with red triangle and exclamation mark.
I cannot boot into recovery, everytime i try I get the blackscreen/phone/red triangle screen and when I vol up and power button the phone just restarts again.
I also tried flashing 1.12.1540.17 as well and have the same problems?
Any suggestions.

tried to boot in to recovery and got a screen with a white triangle and a yellow exclamation point inside above an android robot.
the suggestion is to battery pull. anyone else have this issue? if so, what's the procedure on reboot?
thanks.
I think that's the Stock Recovery Menu ( i kept getting it when i was trying to install the Patches from Fresh & used Clockwork Recovery because the two weren't compatible ).
Do you definitely have a Custom Recovery installed?
You pressed the power button instead of the optical trackpad when trying to reboot from custom recovery
Optical trackpad? What Evo has one of those? LMAO!
Flash Clockwork recovery or AmonRa recovery. You have stock (no recovery).
It is hard to answer your question without further specifics.
For example:
1.) Are you rooted?
a.) If yes, what are you trying to boot into recovery for? - flash radio/wimax or rom???
b.) If no, go to Android Development and read how to Root and install a custom recovery.
2.) If you have a custom recovery, what is it?
to put it simpler than this.
1. What ROM do you have?
2. What custom recovery do you have?
3. What step did you do to get into recovery? - from android or from boot up?
*If you pull a battery while trying to flash a radio, you might have the coolest looking paper weight in your part of the town
Hello shawnathan9!
I have similar problem with my Nexus one.
I have a rooted phone (used superoneclick to root)
Installed clockworkmod and flashed it with the recovery image.
Since I wanted to install latest cynogenmod I used clockworkmod to install the latest radio for it. Now when the phone rebooted it is hung diplaying a white triangle with and exclamation mark inside it. I haven't removed my battery yet and have plugged it to a power source. Can you help me ?
You're rooted, but you are trying to access recovery, but you don't have one loaded. Search google for Amon_RA or clockwork recovery to flash. If you have rom manager, you should be able to flash either or and it should work.
I did the unrevolked 3 and got it rooted. Then I booted it up into the recovery mode and ran clockworkmod. Now how do I get a rom (like mikfroyo 4.5) on it? I tried booting and selecting a zip from my sd card(which mikfroyo 4.5 is on it in zip form still) But it would not finish/aborted ? What am I doing wrong? I have the sptint HTC EVO 4 g phone with all the latest hboot ect on it.

That is part of updating the radio. Just let it finish and it will reboot into recovery. The phone has to go to that screen to update the radio. You may be able to save it by booting into that screen and just let it sit there for a while...eat dinner...take a dump...do whatever and come back and see if your phone is in recovery. I would turn it off and charge it first to make sure you have enough battery to finish the update.
I have the same experience, when I updates to Gingerbread (OTA).

Hello thank you so much for your information. I will leave the phone in that mode (screen hung with triangle an exclamation mark inside + android green logo below) and plug in the charger, until tomorrow morning. Then I have a question if tomorrow the phone still hung in that screen mode, what I have to do?
If you can give me solution, I would be very thankful. Happening in August 23, 2011.

After 2 days, trying to download updates firmware (OTA) GingerBread on HTC Evo 4G, I failed because the phone has been rooted, I found a "superuser permision" app. in the the All apps menu.This meant it is a rooted android phone, which will not permitted to update firmware OTA, is this true? If yes, this is the cause of screen hung at triangle with exclamation inside, and android green logo below.
August 26,2011.
Thats what my phone is doing the clockworksmod menu will not come up only see the
white triangle with the exc symbal with the android symbal. have to pull the battery out ot reset but phone still loads up and works.
I am trying to update my radio to the new 2.x. I went back to stock firmware from being rooted and am trying to get into recovery to apply the update.zip but I get triangle "!" error. What do I do?
i figured it out. must have been a wierd glitch. i reinstalled everything and it finaly worked with a different update.zip.
Its not a glitch. You have to press vol+ and power to bring up the recovery menu and the red triangle
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.
Jelly Bean for yakjuxw is rolling out now, but mine will not install.
I have used the Google framework services "trick" to get and download the update 3 times now.
It downloads 160,3 mb, confirms and restarts for install. Then the Google logo shows for about 10 seconds and then just a restart again without installation. No error messages or anything.
4.0.4, yakuxw.
Any ideas?
Have you rooted the device, flashed a custom recovery, flashed a radio or changed any system files (fonts, mods, themes)?
All of these things (and many more) will cause the update to fail.
No, it is totally stock and not rooted.
Seems weird to me - can it somehow download a wrong update file?
It does not even show the red Android on the first reboot.
Also it seems, that the phone is unable to go into Recovery. Pressing both volume buttons and power and then selecting Recovery modes gets me to the same thing: The white google logo on black screen, and then a auto reboot to normal phone operation.
Can Recovery get broken in any way and thus also prevent the update?

I am expieriencing the exact same problem. Recovery seems to be corrupted and cannot enter it. This cause installation of update impossible. We need help here.
Is flashing to yakju will fix recovery mode?
Try manually flashing the stock recovery. You'll need an unlocked bootloader for that though.
I have fixed my problem by flashing yakju. I have used this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1787503&highlight=yakju
Now i will get OTA updates from Google instead from Samsung because i had yakjuux firmware since my phone was orginally from Bell. Yay!
I sent mine in for repair.
Received it back with re-flashed software, and it's ok again.
A notification came up for a new update and tried to install it. The update failed on the update screen and the phone tried to reboot. I gave it half an hour but I'm certain it's stuck on the screen with the white dots circling a red one. Held down the power button to restart but still stuck.
I can get into the options menu, but selecting recovery seems to just restart. When selecting fastboot, there's no number after bootloader and baseband version.
I have little experience with rooting and flashing or whatever. Not sure what to do, any suggestions?

This is what we call a bootloop. Now you can try a factory reset, but installing TWRP si way better if you encounter these issues in the future. Try to wipe System then flash OOS and it should be fine.
