Why cant I boot into Recovery?

I can reboot into Bootloader, but when I try to boot into Recovery it kicks me back into bootloader. Im using Rom Manager and Clockworks. Any suggestions? Thanks for the help.

Use amon-ra its 10 times better than clockwordmod just download this http://files.androidspin.com/downloads.php?dir=amon_ra/RECOVERY/&file=PC36IMG.zip
drag it to sd card and go to into bootloader thern fastboot and it should say update

Step one, get rid of Rom Manager.
Step Two, flash Amon Ra.
Fixed....

That did it. Thanks guys. Follow up question..do I do a full wipe or Delvick- Cache wipe when flashing Roms? Im used to letting ROM Manager do everything for me that im not 100% sure.

Do a full wipe User Data/Factory reset, then wipe each sub-category, EXCEPT SD Card.
Heck, I re-wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache twice.

You are probably stuck on boot loop.
try this:
1. wipe data/factory reset
2. wipe cache partition
3. advanced ==> wipe dalvik cache
then reinstall the rom.
you need also to be sure that you have the right CWM partition.
Try to follow the instructions of the developer
I hope this will help you

Stuck on "DUAL CORE" after flashing DarkSide PreFinal

Hey guys,
I've tried to flash DarkSide preFinal on my Atrix, now the phone is stuck on "Unlocked, Dual Core"-Screen.
Here's what I did:
Downloaded latest DarkSide and saved it to internal SD
Factory Reset via Recovery Console
Wipe Data
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Flashed the zip file
the process seemed to go through just fine, now when I'm trying to boot the phone it is stuck at the "Dual Core"-screen
Any ideas on how to solve this? I tried to factory-reset and wipe several times, still stuck
Any help is appreciated!

1. Do you have an unlocked bootloader?
2. Are you using a CWM-based recovery?
If you have answered yes to both 1 and 2 then:
3. Have you tried flashing the zip from the external SD?
4. Did you try to flash anything else after flashing the ROM while still in the same recovery session?
(If you answered "Yes" to #4 then re-flash the rom by itself and boot at least once before flashing anything else)
EDIT: Ignore question #1, I just realized you mentioned "Unlocked" on the boot logo.

Thanks for the quick reply.
I reflashed with Wet Dream from the external SD (newer is always better, right? ).
Everything is working now
Seems like being a great ROM.

how long did you let it sit at the loading screen?
Usually when I have boot loops, I let it sit on the loading screen for awhile(2-4 minutes). If it still doesnt boot, then I do a battery pull, and then usually after that it boots.

And if it doesn't boot just reboot into recovery mode, wipe cache, data and dalvik and reinstall the ROM again.

When installing any new rom, it can take a while to build up the dalvik cache again. I've had it take up to 10 min before. Best to just walk away and come back and check on it.

Stuck in the bootloop, data recovery options?

Hi Everyone,
The phone is getting stuck at the ATT logo. I can get get it to stock android recovery and performed the cache wipe already. I took the battery out and and the SD card too. Nothing has changed.
Odin sees the device ok. The phone was rooted and safestrap installed. Can I still do data recovery on the phone and get some files off the internal memory?
Cheers!

Try going into recovery and wiping cache and dalvik cache, wiping data is always a last resort

Cannot wipe with TWRP

Hi,
I have G935F, installed TWRP 3.0.0.0 and rooted, WITHOUT wiping. System boots correctly, but I cannot do factory reset or wipe with TWRP, because I got some messages like "Cannot mount Data" and "Failed crypto loader". I understand that it has to do with encryption. Can someone please enlight me, and give me tips about the issue?
Thank you

You have to download dm-verity and force encryption disabler from here , put it to SD card, reboot into TWRP, FORMAT DATA (not wipe) and flash that file (dm-verity and force encryption disabler). All your data will be erased.
No way to unencrypt without loosing you data for the moment(

"All your data will be erased" means that after boot I'll find a clean system installation (as factory reset)?
I hope not to be posing stupid questions, I'm completely new to this world
Thank you very much

Yes just as a factory reset

No, you cannot perform a backup, because your data is encrypted by default and the only way to disable it is to format your data.

I have a unique problem. I have a HTC Desire 612 from Verizon and I decided to revive it to playe PoGo. But it was stuck in a boot loop and I couldn't get any custom ROM.
Finally a gentle soul here gave me the stock rom and I flashed it vide TWRP and played PoGo for weeks. Then yesterday the phone bro led and when it came up it was stuck in a boot loop.
So I decided to flash the stock ROM again. But before that I tried to factory reset. I could go to TWRP, select wipe data, enter yes and the wiping was successful, then clear dalvic and cache and system beforehand finally I flashed the stock ROM.
Surprise surprise is NOTHING happens. The phone boots without the apps telling me they are installing. Then I get back the exact same data in my phone including my selected wallpaper and apps. Before I can do anything the phone restarts.
Point is wiping and restoring the stock ROM does NOTHING to the phone yet the processes are successful. Can somebody help?
