Hi. I were running a rooted stock rom with the newest radio and spl and ra recovery. I decided to try rom manager(i think thats what its called). I flashed the recovery, i believe it is called clockwork. When i rebooted my phone it just keeps rebooting at the htc logo. I cant enter recovery or anything. Is there a way out of this or can i just throw it in the dumpster?
Can you get into fastboot? Take the battery out and pop it back in. Then try powering on holding down back+power. You should get a screen with three Androids skateboarding. If you can get the port the information here. If you can and it just does the boot loop, do the battery again hitting the back button repeatedly, give that a few tries and see where it gets you.

Did they take it back under the warranty? Did you mod your phone?
Do you get the blue led & black screen when pressing trackball + power at boot?
I get blue led but no fastboot or recovery

Can u fix this

So that means your device isn't fully bricked - your hardware seems to be working, and you should be able to restore the device using JTAG (search the forums). Though I managed to restore mine by resetting some stuff with draining battery and repeatedly trying again. I'd recommend you to try too.

So I just rooted my device and then tried to install a lag fix... when I rebooted my phone after the script, I heard the T-Mobile jingle and then it came to a blank screen. When I pressed the power button there was no response. If I press any of the white keys at the bottom, they just light up. I CAN turn my phone off and go into recovery mode.
This thing has kind of shaken me up so I am willing to go back to an unrooted phone.
PLEASE HELP!
Nandroid, my friend.
Since you are able to boot into recovery, do a nandroid restore.
If you do not have your own nandroid backup There is a thread in the Dev forum you can dowload one from. Just search "[ROM] OFFICIAL T-Mo Vibrant JFD ODIN/Nandroid Backup Images 7/29/10 (Tested/Working)" (I can't hotlink yet. sorry)
This is all assuming you have installed clockwork recovery, which you should have done before you attempted any modding of any sort. Also always remember to create a nandroid of your current system before trying something that is still in beta.
i got same problem here and a don't have clockwork recovery :-(
Then you have to use odin if you don't have clockwork...
My phones have been flashed more than Girls Gone Wild..

I think I found a fix that works...
I just went to recovery mode, and deleted all user data.
I then rebooted and still had a blank screen for about 10 seconds, and then my lock screen came up.
Worked for me! Thanks everyone.

Sorry to resurrect old posts, but I would like to know If after rooting and lag fixing it, it didn't show ABSOLUTELY NOTHING on boot screen and you were only able to hear the sounds and the buttons lit up...
I have a Vibrant on this situation and would like to know I this procedure can fix it.
Best Regards.

Hi
I own a HTC magic from rogers. Im on android 2.1 and 32a motherboard. I tried to root my phone today by using super one click, and it said it was successful. So then i tried to install a rom using Rom manager from the market. I made a custom recovery then tried to install a cyanogen mod 6.1 EB1. It told me to restart my phone so i did. Now my phone just show the rogers screen and restarts. I have tried to hold the power button with the back/home/volume button to no avail. Is my phone bricked?
Thanks for your time

Pull the battery, put the battery back in, and hold (home+power) until you get into the recovery or the phone starts bootlooping again and let me know what happens.

hey thanks for the quick response
Ive tried what you said, it keeps on bootlooping, do you have any other suggestions?

Did you leave the battery out for a few seconds. Does it go right back into the bootloop or does it start to boot normally and then starts the loop? Did you try doing the same thing holding back and power?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using Tapatalk
yea, ive tried all the possible of holding buttons (home, back, volume down) and pressing power and none of them have any effect. The phone keeps boot looping. Basically what happens is then i press power, it shows the rogers logo for about 10 seconds, then turns off, then turns back on and shows the rogers logo again. This cycle keeps going on and on. Do you have any more suggestions
Thanks
This has happend to many people trying to use the rom-manager. It's mainly because RM is more for the 32B devices.
But you can still save the phone... just keep pushing the back button and keep restarting..'
I know someone who did for an hour, but he managed to get into fastboot :0)
Hey thanks for the advice
When you mean press back and restarting, do you mean constantly press back while the phone is in bootloop, or take out the battery and put it back in and press back
patel,
i have had the same problem as you. forget rom-manager with phone =\
Google "htc magic keeps restarting" should find info on how to get it into fastboot - i think.
I fixed my problem by downloading the 1.5 sense update from htc's website.
Plug my constantly rebooting phone to my computer and run the RUU update.
Then the phone should automatically grab 2.1 ota - i did this back in december.
So it fixed this problem and i never dared to try and put a custom rom on this phone again.
good luck.
What is the RUU update youare speaking of is it the regular download from HTC?
Long story. Sorry up front. Flashed Salsa Sense Lite ROM the other night. Once it booted up I proceeded to install some of the add ons. Rebooted and got caught in a boot loop at the white HTC screen. Pulled battery, rebooted, same thing.
Then proceed to find a bunch of HEROIMG.zip files to see if I could flash in bootloader. No go. Then tried a few RUUs. Same thing. Boot loop on white HTC screen.
Do I have a brick on my hands now?? Also confused as to why there is no recovery option in the bootloader?
Thanks guys.
What happens when you pull battery then insert it with power and home buttons pressed ?
What made you sure it was a bootloop?

I didn't know that trick! Thanks a million. Got into recovery and flashed Salsa again.
JieeHD, the HTC white screen kept flashing. Maybe I didn't use the correct terminology? Anyway, thanks a bunch for your ROM and your hard work in this community.
Hi, I have a really strange problem.
I had this build of MIUI on my phone for a few months, no problems
droidforums[.net]/forum/dro...-6-stable[.html]
but a few days ago, my phone started giving whacky battery readings (would drop from 40% to 5% in a few seconds) and i wanted to go into CWM to reset the battery stats.
So I had my phone plugged into my car charger, and when I booted into recovery, it didnt do anything, and the screen stayed black for a few minutes (I assumed it was out of power)
When it booted again, ALL OF MY DATA had been cleared and MIUI WAS NOT EVEN THE SAME AS THE ONE I HAD FLASHED. Same version number, sure, but completely different theme and boot animation. (I believe its currently the stock theme)
Well whats even wierder is that I have no data or wifi. Wifi gets stuck on "Obtaining IP address"
And whats even wierderer than than is that every time i boot my phone up, I am greeted with the android activation screen, no matter how many times I hit skip the set up
I obviously cant activate my phone without a connection
it also resets itself every time i turn it on. Any app that I install from my SD card will be gone.
It gets worse. Droid 2 bootstrap does nothing, even though it reports success. I cant use ROM manager as it has to install CWM from the server.
The reboot recovery option from the boot menu just reboots the phone, and there is no blue LED on boot that I can see to press volume down.
(Holding volume down gives me the android with the box and arrow, and nothing else, I know this has to do with recovery but not much else)
So can anyone tell me how to get CWM working again???
THANKS!
Does your MIUI have a boot menu? If it does you should see a light right before it goes to the boot animation.

You could try a data wipe in stock recovery.

Actually, i cant even get into stock recovery. I see the android and the box after I press x, but pressing the search key does nothing and the search key works.
You have to press both volume buttons at the same time.

I did this, reset to factory deafualts, and absolutely no difference. I cannot find a single sbf file that is still up (megaupload and multiupload are the only ones I can find)
Can somebody please give me a mirror or give me a way to fix this?
