If this does not belong here please advise and I will remove.
I could really use some help. I cant boot into the os. Here is what I did I had everything up and running twrp and root. I realized I accidently flashed the alpha build of twrp not the rc build so I dowloaded the rc zip and flashed it via twrp. It started boot looping into twrp. When I realized this I flashed back to the alpha 2 build and then booted my backup. I am now stuck at the android dancing dots. Can some one help me out please. Thanks for your time

Boot into bootloader, use the latest Google stock factory image and use the flashall.bat with the -w removed inside the file. Let the batch file run and boot the OS using fully stock firmware. If it boots fine, go ahead and fastboot boot TWRP rc1 and flash TWRP rc1 zip and supersu zip.

you have no idea how good it feels to see a reply. Thanks taking the time. forgive the stupid questions I may ask but is the factory img something I will flash inside twrp or is it through fast boot

Fastboot. Use the latest version from Google.
Search for "Nexus factory image download," grab the latest factory image for our device, and flash all. The aforementioned will overwrite your internal memory, and there is a way to preserve your internal data. You can read about it in the Q&A section.
Check the thread from @bajasur for guidance.
For your reference, threads like this belong in that same section, not development (a moderator will move this soon enough). There's also a noob friendly thread, where you can post most anything and folks will help.
Good luck, and please keep us posted.

Very true. The info is out there but not knowing exactly what I did, there seems to be too many answers, and I was quickly overwelmed. After my two attempts to fix it failed I figured it was best to ask for help before I made the problem worse

I need help, I rooted phone using CM7 instructions to put CM7 on evo 4g.
Confirmed s-off. copied cm7 update zip latest version stable, and google apps zip on root of sd card.
Turned phone off, volume down and power, then went to recovery.
It goes to a red triangle and does nothing. Replaced the two zipped files and still the same. I do not know what I am doing wrong. Please help, this is my first time doing this, but I spent a huge amount of time reading and making sure that I did everything right.
You may need to re-install your recovery. I recommend following the steps in the OP of the link below (Amon-RA 2.3).

Ok can you get to recovery? Can you boot your phone to the stock rom you had?
When you power the phone off and then on with volume down does it take you to the bootloader screen (white with kool little androids)? If yes download this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705026 download the pc36img.zip and place it in the root of your sd card. when you power on with volume down it will ask you if you would like to apply update hit yes and yes again. Reboot then remove the zip and reboot again and go to recovery . Let me know how it goes.
I have to tell you you might get the Q&A Troll police for posting in the development section this is for roms,mods,fixes and the like and you question should go in the Q&A keep that in mind next time.
update to my post
I can go to white screen, and i can go to the recovery option. It then goes to red triangle and it stalls, I have to take battery out, it boots up just fine.
One question that I have, does the CM7 update file (update-cm-7.0.3.1. supersonic signed.zip) have all the necessary files required to go through this recovery process.

You need to flash your recovery first and to answer your question no CM7 is a rom not a recovery system. Click on the link given by the other user or myself which are the same download the file and follow instructions you need to get your recovery working first before you flash a rom.
thankyou,

A little research and reading and in any recovery thread would of given you the answer and too me its so much more gratifying when you figure stuff out for yourself and honestly going from one recovery to another is as simple if not simpler than flashing a rom. Remember though you can not restore from another recovery...

I'm planning to replace CWR with TWRP and ROM Manager with GooManager. After I install GooManager and TWRP, will I need to manually delete the backups made by CWR (blobs etc.)?
Yes, if you want space on your internal storage (or wherever you're storing them). Better off deleting them because they're not compatible anyways.
Just delete the clockwork folder in your internal storage or SD card.
So is Twrp actually the better recovery to use as apposed to cwm?
I've personally found TWRP to be more consistent than CWM's touch interface... (use it on ~ 3 devices a this point... T989, T999, and hp touchpad..)
Works pretty well...

It's all up to preference honestly. I haven't had any issues with all the available recoveries but I prefer CWM 5.0.2.7 because of the Darkside scripts. (They were made specifically for CWM 5.0.2.7, but also work with TWRP last time I checked.) Never had an issue with the recovery and all the ROMs I've flashed have all worked perfectly well.

Good advice re: deleting CWM
I tried to flash a CWM recovery (not realizing it was a CWM recovery) with TWRP, and it was a mess.
I agree re: figuring it out for yourself. (I de-bricked my KF2 yesterday, thanks to a Xubuntu - Adb tutorial.)
You guys are lifesavers for Noobs like me.

Dr. Ketan, firstly thank you for the great Rom. I meant to write it on your ROM forum but I can't. So, now I have to make new posts only to be able to write on your rom forum. Maybe it is time XDA changes its rule in regards to how many posts should be done before allowing posting in meaty forums.
BTW, you ROM is really smooth. Thanks.

Thank you. Bootrom would mean a m5d/tar format ROM right? I would really like to push the previous backup i did but its not in a single file format as twrp truncates them into pieces of m5d files, even looking inside dr. ketans v10 rom, there is no single m5d file. Any hints I can achieve this, or should i just push any m5d rom just to recover? (Sorry downloading a gig of file takes long where I am)

I have requested it in a few threads and have not gotten any results. Since some people also contacted me to check if anyone had provided it to me yet, I felt it warranted a dedicated thread until it was available. It undoubtedly will be in higher demand now that U.S. customers are having their phones arrive.
Once available, we can move to other thread that we are discussing and lock this with a link.
I apologize if this was bad etiquette. I already urgently need the files; Apparently along with some other users...please quit kicking a dead horse (aka me! ).

If you actually go to the twrp forum for your device you can read all about the issues. Also we don't ask for eta's. Devs work on their own timeframe not ours.

This is the section where actual products (ROMs, kernels, recoveries, etc) are posted, not questions. Questions about these products go in the Q&A section or the actual thread for the ROM/kernel/recovery/other mod. Also, asking for an ETA is a BIG no-no. Please don't do it again. I also suggest using the search next time to avoid getting flamed (people on XDA are generally not very nice). This issue is well known and I've seen many posts about it that would've been easily found using the search.
