Hold power and vol up buttons for a while (maybe 10 seconds or more) until the phone reboots. Once it reboots (screen black), immediately let go of those buttons, and hold the vol down rocker, don't let go of vol down until the bootloader screen comes up. If the HTC logo screen comes up again, just repeat the process, as you probably just started pressing vol down too late, or let go of it too early.
Once into bootloader, adb push a known good ROM to the phone (or put a ROM removable SD). Install the ROM in TWRP.
And let this be the lesson to NEVER wipe anything unless you know exactly what it means and what the result will be. Then double check and triple check what you have selected before confirming the wipe.
Those TWRP options are under "Advanced Wipe" for good reason. And the TWRP wipe screen also says for the default wipe that "Most of the time this is the only wipe that you need". Again, it says for for good reason.

Htc desire 526g stuck in boot loop

Hi guys, months ago i rooted my HTC 526G with Kingoroot. I later tried to update the software over wifi. It updated but in restarting its now stuck in boot screen and sometimes goes into recovery by itself. Is there a way I can revive the firmware? Any help appreciated

HTC Desire 526G
I have problem like this ....cant fix it

Warning/Disclaimer: This will erase everything you have on the phones internal memory. (if you have play store set up right, you can just log back in afterwards and it will pull all your data/apps back, however if you don't, make sure to backup any contacts, data, ect that may be on the phones storage before attempting this) (then again, if you were already trying to root, you should have had everything backed up already anyway )
Charge the device to at least 50% (or an hour or two at least if the battery was completely dead)
Hold the Volume Down Button, Press power button, keep holding the volume down button
Phone should boot into HBOOT or Download mode,
use the volume up and down buttons to highlight Recovery Mode
press power button to select Recovery Mode
Phone will reboot with a red triangle icon, press all three buttons at the SAME time (vol up, vol down, power)
use the volume up and down buttons to highlight Clear Data (Factory Reset) press power button to select, let it finish clearing /data/ and /cache/
Once this has completed, Pull the battery out, let it sit for like 30 seconds without the battery
Put battery back in
hold power button for a while until it vibrates, release power button
let it sit at the htc boot screen for 10 minutes phone should eventually move to the verizon boot screen (if it goes over 10 minutes on the htc screen, try procedure again)
Post here if you have any trouble.

Still have problems

i've done the procedure but unluckly i'm still having this problem, did someone fix the loop with this method? should i just wait for custom roms? :crying:

I had it happen to me after trying to root with just about every tool out there, mine would boot up but wouldn't go past the htc boot screen white background green htc. After I cleared the data a few times (at least 3) it came back up, try the procedure more than once. Also be patient and wait the full 10 minutes for it to come back up, sometimes it can be slow to load for the first time after this kind of wipe.

Try to root with "PhilZ Recovery by Ajit", search on google, i don't remember where i have download it, but it is an .exe file.
After you install it on your computer, you select USB debugging, and connect your phone to the computer, the rest of the process is auto.
After the installation process, the phone will autoreboot in recovery, here you will select ---> Advanced Function---> RE-root System (SuperSU).
After that, reboot, and install SuperSU from GooglePlay.
Success.
Root without boot loop (you may want to wipe Dalvid Cache before reboot after selecting root).
I hope this works for you ( it worked for me HTC desire 526g ).
Have a nice day.
IF you dont find the Philz, contact me, i wil send it to you.

Philz Recovery by ajit is designed for devices using the Mediatek processor; Sadly our 526 (no g, no +) uses a qualcomm processor. I do not recommend anyone to attempt to use "Philz recovery by Ajit" to attempt to root their HTC 526 as at best it will fail and at worse it will flash a non-compatible recovery and turn your device into a hard-brick.

My phone was also rooted using kingroot. I received an OTA update and I downloaded it. Once the download was complete, the phone restarted and got bootlooped. Occasionally, it goes into recovery. I tried factory resetting it several times as mentioned in the solution. But each time I turn the phone ON again after factory reset, it is looping. Its not stuck at the boot logo. Instead it reboots automatically and in some cases to recovery. So the wait-for-10-mins thing is not working for me.
1. I received a stock ROM from the Russian section of XDA. Will flashing that ROM using the stock recovery using "install update from SD card" help me recover my phone from bootloop?
2. Will flashing the stock ROM unroot the phone? Presently, even after the factory resetting, "check the software partition" option in recovery returns a message "error - system has root". So I was hoping that unroofing might fix the problem. Will it?
3. If the above method fails, is there any other method? Like flashing a custom recovery or flashing a custom ROM etc?
Please help me fix the phone. Thanks in advance.

I am experiencing the same problem and have tried everything to avail, will this devise ever work again its still stuck with a white screen and green HTC

Hey negomo. I just fixed the phone yesterday. It seems that installing an OTA update while the phone is rooted can result in a bootloop or bricking(as in my case). I fixed this issue by flashing a stock ROM of the HTC 526g which I got from another Russian forum in XDA. Anyway I am posting the link of that stock ROM here.
( I am not allowed to post link. So please delete the spaces to get the actual link)

Once you download it do the following procedure
1. Copy it to an SD card and insert the card in your phone.
2. Press power button+volume up key button to enter HBOOT menu (while turning on the phone, press power and vol up button instead of power button alone)
3. Choose recovery option and press volume down to enter
4. Press power button once to enter recovery
5. Choose "install update from SD card"
6. Wait till it finishes installation
7. Wipe cache
8. Reboot phone
PS: I had already done a factory reset from recovery menu. I don't know if that had helped.
This will bring your phone back to life. Give around 10 mins for the first boot.
I hope I was able to help you.
Hit thanks if I did.

how to know my device 526g or 526

HELP! S4 mini stuck! bootloop, power button already removed

hy there!
i'm new here and need your help - my s4 mini just stopped working...from one sec to the other...first i only had a black screen and instantly tried a new battery. nothing changed.
next, i tried snipping against the power button and after a few seconds the s4 mini logo popped up. but it's stuck in this stage. after a few seconds the phone shuts down and starts again. (battery vibrates once, logo appears, shuts down and repeats again) btw if connected via usb charger, first the battery logo appears but no animated charging progress is shown
i tried the recovery mode....display shows "recovery booting..." for about 2 seconds....then shuts down again...starting all over again
i'm only able to get into downloading / ODIN mode....phone doesn't shut down and stays this way!!!
first i thought it had something to do with the power button issue, so i disabled it. i already removed it from the platin. nothing changed.
unfortunately i didn't create a back up recently - maybe there's a way i could get pass bootloop just to create a backup?! any ideas/help...really appreciate it! thank you!!!

OnePlus 3 Will not boot after Flashing RR

Hi! So I have been rolling with the marshmellow version of RR for quite some time and figured I was due for an upgrade. I went to update to the Nougat version, and did everything correctly, firmware, wipe, rom, then gapps. Much to my dismay I was greeted with a screen prompting me for my pattern to start android, I thought this a bit odd but went with it and my pattern did not work. I tried again thinking I may have done it wrong but nothing worked. I didnt think much of it and went to flash again to make sure I did it right, but my recovery never booted. Afterwards I got an error that was very quick and I was not able to read. It came just after the "your phones bootlader has been unlocked" etc. It was a very similar screen as well. After this, I was not able to boot up the phone at all. Once I was able to power up the phone but it simply gave me the same error and now its not starting at all. Any help would be much appriciated and thank you if you made it through this post.

First of all, you need to flash the very latest version of TWRP. If you are suffering from encryption issues and cannot decrypt TWRP, you will need to press back on the TWRP screen, and press wipe -> Format data
You will lose all your data and will be unencrypted. Make sure you have the latest TWRP, as this is vital for Nougat.

Thank you for the help, but I cannot even get into my device to update TWRP.

Try holding the power button for a minute, or try volume down + power to get into the bootloader.

Already did, it doesnt work. Black screen.

Im facing the same problem too. Cant even get adb to work ?

If you can still get into your bootloader, use fastboot commands to flash the latest TWRP.
Either hold Vol Up + Power when you phone is off, or turn it on normally and click any volume button during the "bootloader unlocked" warning screen to access the boot menu.
If you can't access the bootloader at all, then I believe the unbrick guide is your only option.

I can get to the bootloader, but when i flash recovery, it just restarts again and again.

Wipe the recovery partition first before you flash the new one.
Also, what version of TWRP are you using?

Yeah I will look into brick guides. Also going to try and let my phone charge to see if that may help. As far as I can tell it isnt charging but I might as well try.

Thank you for all the help guys, eventually what worked for me was indeed an unbrick guide. I will now be sure to read up entirely on what exactly I need to upgrade to fix this issue. For any wondering https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-for-a-hard-bricked-oneplus-3.452634/ This was the guide I used to fix my phone.

I don't think there is one to force it to power off, I think there's only one to force it to reboot which is POWER + VOL DOWN (held down for a few seconds) on the A5, it's probably the same on the A3. Then immediately as the screen turns off you have to switch to the key combination for download mode or recovery. If if you just release the keys it will try and boot normally.

thx!! im in download mode now

Im in Recovery now. When i try to wipe it says it cant mount /data, /cache, etc.
Also Restore doesnt work because of this. I tried to Repair. System seems to be repaired, but /data fails to repair. Also unable to repair cache.
What to do?
(needless to say i first flashed the correct Recovery )
In Windows Explorer i see only external sd

Somehow i seemed to fix /data en /system. But not cache and dalvik.
I restored a nandroid backup and it boots until LOS animation now. But there its stuck. (but at least i passed Android logo now)
Installation passed pretty good, only in the end it said cache wasnt mounted.
Any ideas?

alright no clue how but its fixed now lol
