get the update.zip from there ??
either get rom manager and flash clockwork then go to recovery and reinstall packages twice or get the update.zip from the link above and reinstall packages twice and that'll take you to clockwork recovery
you sound like you have stock froyo - which means you have the 3E stock recovery.
I suggest following my guide (signature - noobs).
EDIT - ha, just realize Kyle already linked to it, thanks man.
My wifes rezound just started boot looping a few days ago. I have her on clean rom and shes been on that for several months. She was complaining to me as of late, her phone would just reboot to white HTC logo screen (hot reboot) for no apparent reason.
well a few days ago, it reboot, and thats all it does now. white HTC screen, flash... white HTC screen, reboot.. repeat forever.
Okay, So her rom is toast, ill reflash. I have amon RA installed, wiped and reflashed Clean rom, same thing.
wiped again - same thing.
oooookay.. so I got the RUU based on the latest OTA, flashed RUU in hboot.. did its thing, no problems, reboot..
boot loop.
sooooooo I dont know what to do. I have been flashing these things for like 4 years, I have yet to run into any problem I have not been able to fix.. so either this phone is trashed, or something else is going on I can't remedy.
Given that hboot is fine, and recovery is fine, I have to think the hardware has to be fine on some level. It is unlocked and S-off. I have flashed CWM, and TWRP, same thing.
One thing that it does do that seems indicative of a problem, On stock recovery , it says

it does this for a few seconds, then I get to stock recovery. From there, I am unable to wipe the device.

Im thinking this isnt supposed to happen, though I have never wiped from stock recovery, so maybe its normal?
I have been googling for hours, and searching these threads for those errors, but to no avail. If the phone is toast somehow, I have asurion, but Id like to keep the 100 bucks in my pocket if I can.
Are you getting those errors in cwm and twrp as well? Also, have you given Amon Ra recovery a try? From the looks of it it looks like something is definitely wrong, but I'm just curious if those errors show up in the custom recoveries as well.

its most likely a hardware issue now since ur device can't see any of the partitions anymore

Was afraid that was going to be the case.
Are there any adb or fast boot tools to verify those partitions are toast?

This just happened to mine, exact same problem. Booted into phone this morning, kept telling me that it could not load Apex-Home at all, even after restart. Booted phone into recovery mode, attempted to restore all data. Now phone starts up, hits white HTC screen, goes black.. waits and then boots again. I can't even access recovery now with the button combination.
Is there a way to connect my computer to the phone without it booting past the white HTC screen?
Im very new to all of this sorry I apologize in advance in case I don't make much sense..
I've tried resetting to factory settings and had no luck, im currently using Enigma ROM v3.5 and Kernel - 3.0.8+ [email protected] #1
The story is, I loaded up the Nemesis kernel and enigma rom, however It did not seem to work fast and smooth at all. I tried to flash back to 6.1.1.B.1.10 in order to retry everything but however that did not work either. At the moment I have no backups in CWM therefore I can't revert to a previous state. I want to flash other roms and kernels however CWM isn't letting me. Sorry if some of this information is irrelevant, I've been at this for hours on hours and am currently very frustrated. Would appreciate all the help I can get.
Is it saying any errors?

When I try to choose zip from sdcard it says:

Maybe your CWM is wrong or something like that try to reflash the kernel hope i helped you

Hi guys. I absolutely screwed up trying to install CWM to my player, and managed to get it stuck in download/recovery mode only. I somehow managed to install Steve's kernel, which at least gives me a more functional recovery (CWM), but I am still unable to get my player to run normally (I'll click reboot in CWM and it will reboot back to CWM). At the very least, I would like it to get back up and running again. I tried putting .zip files on an external sd card and installing them via CWM, but for whatever reason my player can't the .zips.
If anyone could help me flash back to a stock rom or something that would be fantastic. Thank you.
Edit: Just to clarify, my player is 4.0 USA. Also, many of the recovery files that have been posted here have been removed.

First of all download this stock recovery rom for the USA 4.0 found here (thank zalcimon please) http://www.mediafire.com/?aodm44hzan3jauo
Now you must install Samsung Kies on your PC to get the correct drivers. Then you must download and install odin found here:
http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...IxHp1ISlP2fzGKhtw&sig2=ZjUHLCkIbG1_EprOk9enrA. After that you need to put the player into download mode, by first turning off the player completely and then to put it into download you must (Hold volume down and power).
Here's the fun step. Open up Odin and make sure only Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time are checked or YOU WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE *THE HORROR*. Plug the Galaxy Player into the USB Port (while it's still in download mode) and Under ID:COM it should say something like 0:[COM4] and is yellow. Where it says message it should say "Added!!"
You have to now hit PDA and select the .md5 or .tar file(this is the recovery rom you downloaded early). Hit Start and it should take about 2-4 minutes to finish. If you get bootloops then you must turn off the player, and put it into the stock recovery. Hit wipe data/factory reset, and Wipe cache Partition.
Flashing a kernel is very easy when you use odin. Basically it's the same steps as flash a rom. All you have to do is hit PDA select steve s kernel (make sure it's the .tar file) and hit start. It should take about 10 seconds and you're done hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply. You're giving me a better idea of what exactly it is that I need to do.
Unfortunately, I already tried flashing the recovery rom in Odin, but it doesn't work because it's a zip file. I tried unzipping it in both WinRar and 7Zip, but all I get is a folder with several items in it. I can't properly flash back to stock because I don't have a stock .tar file.

Dang it lol. I have the .tar file, and I'm going to use a site called www.transferbigfiles.com that lets you email big files to people. However, the good thing is that they let you share links. Here it is https://www.transferbigfiles.com/dd8765db-edaf-4d58-a798-3d091429974c/hfVImIZm4TURWTX05abOQw2. Be warned though this will only be here for 5 days so download it in this time please.

I tried those, but obscuresword was correct in stating that the files linked aren't in .tar or .md5 format, and thus they can't be flashed with odin.
Anyways, I tried the file that obscure linked and I am still unable to get out of recovery. I basically get a bunch of red text every time I try to do something (like wipe data), and when I try to reboot it just reboots me into recovery once again. This is the same issue I was having earlier, so for the time being I have flashed an alternative kernel that at least has a recovery that is a little more functional. I still go back into recovery when I reboot though.
