I have looked and looked, cant find what I need to do. I own an htc Thunderbolt on Verizon I am new here, recently got it rooted and flashed Das bamf with sense 3. I was messing around with clockwork mod and tried to change the font on the the phone and it crashed. I cant get it to load past the white htc screen. I can get clockwork mod to come up and I have tried loading a couple different recoveries I had found on here. I have a new one coming tmrw frm verizon thanks to a friend that works there. But it isnt broke it just is stuck at the white htc screen and wont load Android. What do I do? ANY help is greatly appreciated.
Also I cant seem to find a step by step of what should be done with Clockwork Mod before flashing a new rom.
Im sry for being long winded

I've searched the forums, and maybe I've just not searched correctly, or for the right thing, but I've not been able to find any information specific to my problem.
Anyways, here's what's happening.
Just picked up a new Sprint HTC Hero, followed step by step instructions to root the phone, no problems whatsoever. Made my nandroid backup, saved to the root of my sdcard, no issues there.
Immediately afterward, I downloaded the Black Sense skin, stuck it in the root of the sdcard, renamed to update.zip like instructions said, turned the phone off and rebooted in recovery, installed the update from the sdcard, rebooted, and now is stuck in a boot loop.
I get the sprint animation, the hero logo with the little android guy, and the HTC splash screen, and then just goes back and does it again.... forever. I have not loaded any other ROM or done anything else with the phone, just rooted the phone, dl'd the theme. Now I have heard about loading a different ROM on the phone, but is this required for the Themes to work? If it is, how would I be able to tell which ROM's are compatible with my phone? Sorry guys, I'm new to this, just trying to pick up info as I go.
Most all of the other threads I have found are directed to other phone users who have installed a Hero ROM on a Tmobile G1 or something like that. I haven't been able to find anything specific for my device, so I'd appreciate any help you all can give. I'm sure its a pretty simple fix, any help?
I had the boot-looping problem on my rooted T-Mobile G2 Hero, and I fixed it by wiping everything from the recovery menu. I dunno if this will help you, since I'm not sure what the differences between Sprint, HTC and T-Mobile's version are, but it might be a good start. :S
thanks
thanks for the quick reply. As usual, I found a boatload of info right after I posted the original thread. I think what I needed to do was to download find and download a rom that is compatible with my version of Hero and android, then find a theme that I like, and then try to update with the theme.
That's about as far as I've got, I'm poring over every bit of info I can find, but its confusing as hell, and poor grammar makes it even harder to understand.

If you did a nandroid backup? boot into recovery and restore the backup, that should reset everything unless you flashed the skin and then did the backup? in that case download a rom for the cdma hero (guessing thats what you have?) rename it update.zip and put it onto your sdcard, boot into recovery and wipe EVERYTHING!, then flash your update.zip. only install themes for specific roms.
yea, had no problem with making the nandroid backup, and after the boot-loop, I pulled the battery and then booted in recovery to restore. No problems there.
I guess I just didn't get enough info before I started messing with the device. Thanks for the help tho.

Follow the instructions in this thread. It shows you how to install Cyaqnogen 6.1 Final, and the Google apps, + other stuff as well. Everything you need to know will be in there, do a full wipe of your phone then follow those instructions.

Thank you Zebwen
hey guys im hopeing u guys could help me im new to the android revoulution but i love my evo 3d and i decieded to root it.
I used revolutionary to root worked well i acheacived s/off also and i installed a lot of roms and was useing infected eternity rom for the past month and was working well.
two weeks ago i saw a thread for a red theme so i downloaded it and insalld it through ROM MANAGER i use rom managaer because since i rooted clockworkmod dosen`t respond to any comande it just goes a black screen with a hat and nothing works.....so after i installed the theme phone got stuck in a boot loop and since then i can`t do much execpt get into fastboot...
since clockworkmod is not working i wanted to flash a new recovery.......but i don`t know how to do this through fastboot because it seems that u must install the file on the root of your sd card, well i cant access the sd card because i when i plug my phone it doesnt appear on the comp like a «d« drive or «c« drive i guess its because the phone cant get to the regular ui or something anyway if u have a suggestion please let me know thanks
also i was wondering what recoveries actually work with evo 3d (gsm) cuz its seems that most like team win or (twrp) only work with cdma so if u could point me in the right gsm direction thanks

SOLVED Hi guys, I've got a HTC one x running CM10 nightlies. Everything has been going great. Last night i tried to flash rohans kernel.. it didn't work, my fault I'm sure. I think i did something wrong and I'm not entirely sure is suites my phone. I had previously made a nandriod back up so i thought i could just restore that if it all went wrong. After i flashed the kernel it just gets stuck on the white htc screen, i can still get into bootloader so i went into cwr and tried to recover from my backup. Everything seemed to work and i said the recovery was all done, but when i reboot it still gets stuck on the white htc screen. Sorry if this question has been asked, i googled and searched the hell out of it and have tried everything i can find. I think i just need to get rid of that kernel.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
sorry if some of this doesn't make sense, I'm still a total noob
Solved
Got it fixed, ended up updating to the latest CWR mod which let me mount for usb storage, then i could reflash latest CM10 nightly.
On another note I'm still not sure why my nandriod back up didn't work?
hello there, im sure someone can help me out, i have worked with many android phones before and done alot of reading on the ONE X+. i have a one x+ on telus if it matters, and i have it rooted with no problems, every time i try to load a rom i get stuck in a boot loop, i also cant seem to access any storage through recovery or side load. i have tried different roms, kernals, recoverys, same thing, i have also tried going back to stock ruu and then trying agian with no luck.i have been using the " all in one root kit v2.3" (NOOB tool). its been a while since ive played with android so im sure im just doing something stupid but ive tried about 10 times now, any help would be great.
Thanks brenden
Did you used international roms instead of AT&T/Telus roms?

1) make sure you are on a compatible roms: international version won't work for AT&T
2) make sure you have your bootloader unlocked
3) make sure you flash the right kernel via fastboot usb or kernel flasher, because s-on devices (htc one x+ is one of them) cannot flash kernel via recovery
I will try to help but I don't know what your phone condition now, what recovery you are on, what roms/kernel you last flashed
