so i just rooted my phone but everytime i try to load bootloader to install a custom rom it does not load the bottom 3 icons just blink 10 times what ever that means... do i need to reroot?
That's the simulated battery pull, hold the power button until the phone shuts off and then hold power and volume down and the phone will go to bootloader. Check settings to make sure fastboot is off. If you still can't get to bootloader, use adb. Type adb reboot bootloader or adb reboot recovery

the kernel installer may have failed, it happens once in awhile. Extract the boot.img and place it in adb folder, connect to pc and type fastboot devices first to make sure your computer can see the phone, type fastboot flash boot boot.img

Do you have a recovery installed? If not, I believe you can put one on the root of your SD card then install in from boot loader. TWIRP works great. Then you could flash a ROM.

if you need to load a rom to sd, go to twrp. select mount and then mount storage, by default the internal storage is selected. Mount to pc, if its corrupt, you will be prompted to reformat. from there load a rom and flash again. go back to bootloader afterward and fastboot flash kernel

Hi, did not see a solution in any theads or posts for this and could really use some help. My phone is stuck in CWM Recovery v4.0.1.4. Every time I reboot the phone or battery pull it boots right back up into CWM Recovery.
Haven't been able to use my phone for a few hours. Please help any suggestions would be great.

Thats weird...Id say try reflashing the recovery and if that doesnt work then flash the RUU
Just installed TWRP Recovery and tried to flash a new ROM through that and when I rebooted it opened on the start as well.
I am really stuck
Perhaps the volume button is inadvertently stuck down. This would make you boot into recovery every time. I suggest examining the volume rocker or even the internal buttons to see if it is being touched by dirt or something.
Tried looking at the volume down button and no luck.
Could this have something to do with the PG86IMG.zip file on the root of the sd card.
I removed it and thats when this started happening.

The PG86IMG.zip will either be a recovery img or splash screen...can you mount and unmount your card from recovery? Try doing that and removing the PG86IMG

Finally fixed it last night thanks to scrosler and yourself
Heres the fix in case anyone runs into this down the road
Download ruu ZIP here: http://www.scottsroms.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=20
Reboot to hboot
relock the bootloader using this command "fastboot oem lock"
reboot to hboot again by pulling battery this time.
Go to recovery
Rename downloaded file to PG86IMG.zip
Mount USB storage and copy the file over
pull battery again
reboot to hboot and it will scan file and flash it.
Then unlock re-install recovery and you can go from there.
Keep getting this error in 4ext recovery: 4 ext recovery you are currently in safe_mode that means that some of your internal partitions are not accessible. Please wipe all partitions and then reboot recovery
I am trying to flash an android revolution hd rom
my phone is rooted , s offed, super cid, ICS
i wiped everything
did the android revolution hd super wipe
do i flash kernel first? and which kernel should i use?
phone keeps going back to HTC screen and stays stuck on it.
i am familiar with adb and cmd
any advice???
have you tried to flash any other roms? and make sure smart flash is enabled when trying to flash your rom?, or you can re-partition your device with 4EXT then use the "toggle usb" to mount your sd card and place the rom on there then try and flash it
Had that issue with a friend. Your internal storage is corrupted. Toggle USB and go on your computer. Right click the internal SD and format it. Restart recovery and it will be good to go.
silly me

here's a way to return to stock RUU, you need the all-in-one toolkit from hasoon2000
download this file Here and rename it to PH85IMG.zip (this file is for ICS) the older one for GB didnt work for me
use the "Relock Bootloader" command on hasoon's toolkit to relock your bootloader (i received a security warning when doing so, but still worked)
place the PH85IMG.zip file on the root of your SD Card
turn off device and remove the battery. Reinsert the battery then simultaneously hold the volume down and power buttons (to boot fastboot)
Fastboot will detect the image file on your external storage. After it loads, accept the "update" - this will revert you to stock (including recovery and radio).

yes the file listed in that quote is the one for wind mobile.. i updated it
I'm probably coming too late, but I ran into this issue before. It's because I flashed a new Rom, and rebooted my phone before finishing the initial setup. You have to get passed that first and get to the home screen, or the internal sd card doesn't get partitioned properly. Did you do something similar to this?
In any case, I wish you luck!

So here's the story, I'm on a new version of cm, I decided to install a thicklizard kernel, did a backup in twrp (newest version), I'm s-off, and it wouldnt boot. It just hangs on the boot animation. So no big deal right? I go to my bootloader to get back into recovery but I have a firmware img on the root folder of internal storage so it tries to install that, I say no, and it asks to reboot my phone, no option to go into recovery (used to be able to on the 3d or og). So now I let it boot up to the animation and I go try adb... well it says device is offline. I have debugging on and what I'm pretty sure is the newest platform tools (adb etc.). So I'm stuck, no adb, no accessible bootloader, no workable rom... any ideas? Is there a button combination to boot into fastboot, recovery, or wipe my phone? Any help woiuld be great

Hey
I've been trying for about 5 hours now with my mac (main computer) and a small netbook (windows) to fix my phone to no avail
Problem started when I tried to flash a rom and towards the rom finishing installation the phone froze and it all went downhill from there.
First the phone would do an endless boot loop and occasionaly it would go to a picture of a red triangle and red exclamation. Now it stays on CWM recovery and if I reboot, it goes to CWM again. Sometimes I get my mac to recognize the phone in CWM, otherwise it takes forever to get there. Any help would be phenomenal.
What phone, ROM, version of cwm.

you need to enter recovery and reflash the rom.
If you are in CWM Recovery, you can wipe cache from there. Look for the wipe option and afterwards go back to the install option and try to install the rom again. Hopefully you checked the MD5 checksum for the rom you downloaded.

reflash the rom the way you did it the first time.
if you're doing AHRD don't press the touch screen use the volume and power buttons to move through the menus
Why would you need to? I am assuming that you downloaded a rom, checked MD5, and then copied it over to your phone's internal SD Card. When you select install from within recovery, you need to scroll and select the file you want to flash. After selection, Aroma Installer will start and you simply follow the prompts.

Stay calm first. Its not too big. İnstall adb drivers on windows and plug your phone. Enter recovery. Mounts and storage. Usb connect. Then youll be connected to the pc. Copy new roms. And just try. İf its wont work, then try flashing kernel for your android version and phone. One of custom roms must be installed succesful.

the reason you cant find your back up is because all aosp 4.2.2 roms create the "sdcard0" file path for your data, instead of 4.1.x having just the "sdcard" directory. TWRP wont let you navigate back to the original directory, and flashing a stock rom or backup wont fix it. you either have to manually delete the folder on the computer or on a file manager on the phone (but a computer is recomended).
now what type of factory reset did you do? the regular option in TWRP wipes /data, /cache, and /dalvik. is that the one?
i went into twrp and hit "format data" and it told me to type yes and then it formatted everything ...so afterwards it says superuser is not installed then swipe to install it...after i go to reboot system and it says No operating system installed

yea man that format data button wipes EVERYTHING. that button should not be pressed when regularly flashing different roms. it says that because there is no operating system on your phone anymore. and there probably isnt a backup either, as im not sure what partitions that wipes in detail. can you reboot into recovery by holding down the volume down and power button until the lights flash about 10 times? see if you still have a recovery
yeah i can get back into recovery..i just dont know how to get phone to boot up...yeah i dont know why i decided to format the data..haha friggen idiot i am
should i just download stock rom and plug my phone into the computer and transfer the file over? if so do i just put it in data/media folder?

you also need to make sure you have all the correct HTC drivers for the phone. if you could previously plug your phone in and navigate the internal storage, you should be fine.
1) download a plain, stock sense 4+ ROM and get it ready
2) boot the phone into recovery
3) plug the phone into the computer
4) launch the toolkit. you should see your device in the list at the top of the toolikit. if not hit option 20.Refresh toolkit. if it still doesnt show up, you might have bigger problems
5) select option 14 and follow the prompts
6) reboot the recovery
7) check and see if you can find the rom in TWRP and install
let me know. i'll be off XDA for an hour, in about 45 minutes. but if this doesnt work, pm your gmail address and get on hangouts
