[Q] Thunderbolt failing to boot after custom ROM - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently attempted to root my HTC thunderbolt, and to do so I used the htc dev unlocker and then this "HTC Thunderbolt Tool'
rootzwiki.com/topic/27310-all-in-one-the-htc-thunderbolt-tool
After that I downloaded a rom and installed it through the 4ext recovery, it all install fine and I did do a factory/data reset but whenever I reboot after the rom install, I get the HTC white bootloader and then the screen become black with a back light to it.
I have tried a number of times to re-install the rom and have tried to use other roms but all of them seem to end the same way.
I have used:
BAMF FOREVER 1.1
BAMF MECHA ICS
AIRBORNE GOUI
Killsense 3.7.19
Lightning501
few more
My phone is a HTC Thunderbolt and when I attempted to root the phone it had a hboot version of 1.0.8 and had a stock version of ICS installed.
Sadly I have a phone without a working rom and I had forgot to make a backup so if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. Preferably I would like to keep the phone rooted but its not necessary.
Thank You
I'm a total xda-developor noob, so I hope I didn't mis a thread with a the solution all ready on it.

Make sure you do the factory reset, wipe dalvik and cache. Flash the ROM and reboot. Sounds like your missing a step somewhere 8)

I have tried clearing everything but still doesn't seem to work.
One thing I forgot to mention is sometimes if I wait long enough on the blank screen It boots me back into the 4ext recovery, don't know if that makes much of a difference.
The way I have been installing the rom
Load ROM onto the SD
Do a "wipe data/factory reset"
Go into install sd and choose the Rom which is in a .zip file
I think this is how its supposed to be done, but not sure.

You need to wipe cache and dalvik cache too.

I have done that.

Problem is you were coming from the ICS OTA.
The All In One Tool alone will not get you rooted after taking the OTA.
In order to fully root and s-off after having the OTA loaded, you would need to follow the steps outlined HERE

Correct Thanks I fixed the link in my first post.

I am using the thread and so far its working, just one last question. Do I have to install and use 4ext, or can I just use clockwork mod?

You can use whatever Recovery you want, Clockwork Mod is old and not really suggested to use, especially with newer roms.

I miss the RA recovery I had on my first bolt. I use the ext4 recovery now. Glad Santod was able to help you out!!

You might have to wipe and start again. I had that problem yesterday.

If all you are clearing is the cache, and not wiping data/cache/davlik, that is your problem right there...
Ive cleared them all 3 times now and still getting the same problem.

When all else fails, follow unroot steps to return to stock and restart the process. Something you're doing doesn't seem to be adding up.

What ROM are you trying to flash, and what recovery are you using? The most reliable is arguably the Clockworkmod version...

Returning to stock is a good way to resolve this issue.
So guess what, you can change the color inside the rom settings
Oh thanks for the help
Are you using ROM manager to flash roms or doing it manually? if your not you should try rom manager it has an option that lets you wipe all data before flashing the new rom. i use it and ive never had any problems

If you search this forum or Google 'unrevoked', you'll easily find a complete guide and walkthrough on how to root your phone, which'll (as part of the process) load clockworkmod boot recovery.
The next time you reboot, hold the volume down key, which takes you into your boot screen, and use the vol up and down keys to select 'recovery', and press the power button.
From there, wiping your cache partitions and doing a full factory wipe is very straightforward.
That's the easiest way to fully flatten your phone before installing a new ROM.
Edit - the process might differ a bit for your model phone, but the principle will be the same...

EVO 3D not going pass boot logo after Rom Manager

Hi Guys,
I really need help here.
I have a rooted and unlocked boot loader (Revolutionary) HTC Evo 3d. I already had clockwork recovery installed but when i opened ROM manager and clicked on download ROms it asked me to download clockwork recovery.......so i did. The phone got stuck so i pulled the battery out. Now i simply cannot get past the HTC boot logo. I can get into recovery but i do not want to factory reset as i don't have a backup of my data. Is there ANY way to do ANYTHING to fix this?
Would really appreciate any help in this regard. Any suggestions????

Try booting into recovery ...once there wipe dalvik cache, and also clear the option that says "data cache" will edit so I can reboot and get the exact wording but its data clear cache is what you want to clear as well..then once complete reboot phone and it should get you going. What ROM are you flashing?
**its wipe data/factory reset**
Clear that then reboot see if that helps

Don't really want to do a factory reset because i don't have a back up of my data. I guess no option other than this.

No its not a factory reset of your phone..ie: settings erase ..
This is through recovery on clock mod. All it does is clear the previous data which is probably why you get stuck in boot loop
its not going to erase your phone...

Did all 3. Dodnt work. In the fast boot theres an option of factory reset(Not in the recovery) should i go ahead with that? Or since my phone is unlocked and rooted that might mess things up more?
Last option is to flash again

Ok not uploading.....but once you boot into clock mod....in the options one of those is the data/wipe factory reset something like that in recovery...not fastboot.
If you did that then you will need to flash again....do a nandroid recovery and then try again

Just copy a PG86IMG.zip image of TWRP to your sd and install through the bootloader.
Then, never use Clockworkmod recovery again in your lifetime.

I never had a problem with cwm on devices with no other option.... But on devices that had other options the other options have always been the better choice. Could it be that cwm sucking necessitated an alternative or mere coincidence? Likely the latter... But I'll never use cwm if I have another option--cuz all I hear about is trouble.

That is what you're looking for but all it's gonna do is flash a different recovery. From your posts, it seems cwm recovery was still functional. You just need to flash a new rom and forget about your previous data. Always have a nandroid backup of some sort, and this won't happen. I nandroid backup once a week atleast, and more if I start tinkering with the rom. I have also NEVER had any problems with cwm recovery on any of the four android devices i've owned. I don't know why people dislike it so much.

Try to factory reset , wipe cache and install Rom again .
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA
The first time a newly flashed Rom boots up it can take a few minutes to start. Factory reset/wipe and restart the phone. Set it down and walk away for 5 minutes minimum. It can be hard to do with the anticipation but sometimes it just needs to be left alone till its loaded everything
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA
Don't panic you probably just need to install the kernel boot.img via fastboot.
Turge has provided some very nice instructions in his thread, here
Just make sure to use the boot.img from the rom your trying to install rather than the one in his tut. (it's in the romname.zip file)
Didn't you make a back up before flashing a custom rom? If you did, just try to restore it first.
You need more info about your setup: cdma/gsm, s-on/off, HTC unlocked/locked, hboot version, recovery, etc.
If u are hboot 1.50/HTC unlocked have a look at the guide in my signature.

Good point. U NEVER flash anything without a good backup. I leave the last 2 backups on my ad card and delete the oldest everytime I flash a Rom. That way if one is bad hopefully the other one isn't.

let start of by do you know how to get into recovery? did you follow instructions from site when trying to root? did you follow and understand all steps?
do you have a recovery software loaded like 4xt or clock work mod? do you remember doing a backup? if you can get into recovery then you can fix your phone and its far from bricked.
Is it still broken? have you fixed it and not updated the forum?

I always wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, and wipe data from phone. I AM A NOOB and have no idea what to do. Why can I use beastmod and not the rest.?

[Q] [Solved] i717 rooted but cannot flash any ROM

I have an AT&T Note that I rooted using the Odin method. I was running stock ICS and I know the root worked because I was able to install Google Now and it worked fine.
So I decided I wanted to try a different ROM. I just wanted to install bigfau's cleaned up stock rom found here. I put the zip file on my phone, booted into CWM, did a wipe, found the zip, said it installed fine and then I rebooted. At boot it just sits at the Samsung screen. I let it sit for 30 minutes, still nodda.
So I grab odin and flash back to stock ICS. Use the same method to root and I try a different ROM. This time the Pure Stock ICS from bigfau, same problem.
Odin back to stock, root, and I try parandoidandroid found here - same problem.
Do it all again and try a ROM from another site called HYFR Only One, which is a SGS3 based rom. Same deal.
The only thing I can get it to do is ODIN to stock. Am I missing something?
(I have another rooted galaxy note that I do not have any issues with flashing roms but it was already rooted when I got it.)

Rooted has nothing to do with flashing a ROM, having CWM or TWRP will give you the cap to flash a ROM.
I have used these Recovery types for flashing:
Touch CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1584576
TWRP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647575
After you have CWM of some type ensure you are doing a clean wipe, this is how I perform my wipes:
1. Download to sdcard
2. Reboot to CWM-based Recovery
3. Wipe data/factory reset
4. Wipe Cache partition
5 Go into advanced> Wipe Dalvik Cache
6. Go into> Mounts & Storage
a. Format /data
b. Format /system
c. Format /cache
Install rom & Reboot
After the first boot up let it sit for a few min to build...then do your set ups.
btw there is a Q&A section.

I apologize if I did not make this clear but I have Rom Manager installed and CWM was updated to the latest version. I would reboot into CWM, do a factory reset, wipe cache, dalvik caceh, install rom and reboot. It would just sit at the samsung screen. I did not go into mounts and storage and do that but I will now. The process I use on my AT&T note is the same process I used on my Rogers note and I am able to install any ROM i want on my rogers note.
I have flashed roms probably over 100 times since my samsung captivate. I just didn't know if the note had another step involved. Like S-Off on HTC phones for example.
I have been using the standard version of cwm but I am trying the touch version now. Will update.
Same problem. I am uploading a video to youtube now. I will post in a minute or so.
did you check if bootloader is unlocked?

Animatechnica - It is my understanding that the bootloader is not locked on the Galaxy Note. I have not seen anything about unlocking the bootloader in any thread on the i717.
elry567 - do not have busy box installed - never saw anything requiring it to be installed. I will try that as well.
Well this time I got a status 7 error in CWM which can be a lot of different things. I am up to date on CWM, the rom I know works for the galaxy note (I am running it on my other one AND I have seen video of it working on an AT&T branded Note) so I don't know. I did a google search on the error and everything I found does not seem to apply. It is really starting to piss me off. Any help is appreciated.
Here is the video, sorry about my cam skills but you get the gist. I took this video with a i717r that is running the rom I want to install on the phone in the video.
Are you entering recovery with the phone off then using the buttons, or flashing from rom manager?
You should be doing it by the button method.

Done both, doesn't seem to make a difference. I will definitely use the button method from here on out though.
Try using TWRP? It seems CWM doesn't want to work for you, so try using TWRP instead.

HOLY F&(%*&G $&!t twrp may have worked. I had to go full back to 100% stock with 3e recovery and 0 flash counter. Use a new root method, flash twrp via goo app and so far so good.
Seriously I do not know who you are but I could kiss you. I wonder why CWM wouldn't work? I have used it to load custom roms on just about every other android phone I have had.
OH well, consider this solved.
