any suggestions?
please help this is urgent

will some one please help me instead of just reading this?

Have you tried flashing recovery again?
If you can only boot in to FastBoot, then try using the following link, try to flash using method described for FastBoot to try and flash your recovery again. Hopefully you can flash it again and boot into recovery, after booting into recovery you should be able to either flash the ROM again or if you took the precaution of creating a backup, you can restore it from there.

I think you can use the same method to flash the rest of the ROM (i.e. the system.img, boot.img, etc) if you have a backup of course. But I'm no expert, so don't take my word for it, since I haven't tested it neither.
Hope this helps.

Recovery Woes

Hi all,
So coming from a Samsung craptivate, Im having a little bit of trouble flashing CM 6.1.1 on my new N1
so far starting from stock I have
- Unlocked the bootloader
- used fastboot to flash the latest clockworkmod
now I am trying to boot into recovery to flash the CM zip on my SD and I keep getting to a screen with the android guy and an exclamation point, and have to do a battery pull to reboot, I have tried using adb and 3 button combo to get into clockwork,
so, what idiotic thing am I doing wrong?
You're booting in between installing the recovery and booting into recovery.
There are two files that restore the stock recovery upon a system boot (which is what you are seeing). If you go straight to recovery after flashing, the stock recovery won't be restored, then you can install a custom ROM.
The two files are missing from custom ROMs, so you won't have this problem again.
Typically, people remove these files once they have root access, but since you don't have root yet, that isn't an option...

thanks very much for your help, got it working
Reading the Wiki guides for installing recovery should have solved your question before you wrote it.

[Q] Can't boot into recovery after flashing new CW 3.0.2.4 recovery help!!!

So... I was rooted using gfree method and had recovery 2.5.1.4 installed running the ice glacier rom. Then I decided i was going to upgrade to a gingerbread rom so I updated my rom manager and flashed the new CW 3.0.2.4 rom and now it wont boot into recovery. When I try to boot into recovery it shows the mytouch logo for a bit, the screen turns black and the phone reboots. I tried to flash the old recovery again but I get an error message saying: An error occurred while flashing your recovery. I can still flash CW 3.0.2.4 and CW 3.0.0.5 but both will not boot into recovery.
I also tried flashing the 3.0.2.4 recovery manually through fastboot flash recovery recovery.img but I still get the same problem. I couldn't find an active download link for the 2.5.1.4 recovery to try to flash manually so I don't know if it helps to do this.
I read on the forum somewhere to revert back to stock recovery using the stock PD15IMG IMG file and try again. This took me back to stock and I was able to boot into the stock recovery. Then i reran visionary for permroot again, deleted my clockworks folder from my sdcard and tried again, but the problem came back.... Mytouch logo then black screen then auto reboot.
My root access still works fine but I cant get into recovery to flash a new rom.... and now I am stuck on a stock rom. :[ After 6 hours of trying to fix the issue I'm still very confused.
Any help / suggestions would be appreciated Thanks.

Yes, from Hboot and from rom manager, but sometimes if i try from rom manager it will also hang at the white mytouch logo screen.
Update
Ok. So i have a partially functional recovery again i found the recovery image for 2.5.1.2 and flashed it using fastboot flash. I am now able to get into recovery again and install custom froyo roms, but every time i try to upgrade to a higher version like 3.0.0.5 or 3.0.2.5 no matter which method i use, I still get the same reboot while trying to get into recovery.
Please help. Thanks

Stuck in FTM mode, please help

I cannot buy a phone just yet, can anyone help me out here. Problem is, i was trying to change the partition layout using the TPT method but the phone didn't boot properly so i tried the windows method and after flashing the original recovery, when the phone was restarted, it kept booting into the FTM mode. I tried to recover the IMEI (1channel.nvm) but that didn't work out as well....
Please any ideas? Modaco seems to be very useless when it comes to helping out members lol, so i thought there might be people here who can help me out?
Do you flashed the stock recovery with stock rom?
For what I can see, you only flashed the stock recovery (FTM), make sure you download the ZIP for stock recovery with stock rom.

Stuck on Android Recovery mode.

I have rooted and installed ricks rom using safestrap. Everything worked well until today. Long story short I tried using safestrap to install a new ricks rom. I get stuck on activation screen so I rebooted phone and messed around with safestrap. somehow my phone is now stuck on boot and I can only get into adroid recovery from the boot screen. I am stuck here and cant figure out what to do next? Is there a way to install a custom recovery from this point? any help would be appreciated.
Yes, you can flash another custom or stock recovery to rescue from this problem.. Try this, may this'll help you..
I tried that but it would not work. I finally used odin to flash the stock rom and got my phone back to normal again.

I tried to reboot to recovery didn't work, it shows black screen and remains stuck their, I tried to re-root my phone using oneplus2 toolbox, after running the bootloader unlock, my phone is not turning on, only going to FAstboot mode. I cannot root it even though oem unlock and usb debug was allowed, now I am stuck its not letting flash recovery or rom.
please help
Don't need to root again (root is for the ROM) your ROM or partitions are messed up, flash fastboot image without data partition using naman's ubrick guide
