I tried booting various sense and aosp roms, but my phone won't boot past the flying 3d or any other boot animations. Can someone please help? I tried wiping everything. It worked at first but it doesn't now.
Edit - i think it has to do something with flashing a bad kernel
Take the battery out for 15 minutes. Then boot to recovery or whatever. Are you on old version of twrp?

this will fix it...
power off phone, charge for 20 minutes.
remove battery
load a sense 3.0 rom like eternity 1.4 to your sd card (most stable of the eternity builds in my experience)
load synergy super wipe.zip
insert sd card
boot to recovery
wipe cache partition 3 times
wipe data/factory reset 3 times
flash synergy super wipe
flash rom
boot up
should be good to go. follow those steps

I just flashed the new CM7 ROM onto my Atrix. I was running the Dark Side ROM before the flash. I tried booting my phone up, it goes to the boot animation which runs for about 5 seconds, then reboots. Its cycled for 10 minutes. I pulled battery, reflashed, but the problem seems pretty persistent. Any Ideas?
it may be obvious but did you do the "3 wipes" before flashing CM7? also try "fastboot -w" if you've done wipes in recovery already before flashing
i am having a similar issue with the MOD 2 version of this rom, i was using my atrix with the hdmimirror.zip that i installed other than that the phone was just stock rooted, with an unlocked bootloader. now that i have flashed this rom ( doing all the necessary wipes and etc.) when i try to reboot i am stuck at the dual core screen. any thoughts?
Format the system partition, factory wipe/reset, wipe dalvik cache. Reboot into CWM and then go ahead and flash the ROM. That should hopefully make sure it's all clean before the install.
Need some help and am not having any luck on the forums.
I have an Hboot 1.5 Evo 3D rooted with the Synergy ROM. I have EXT4 files, and a ziggy kernal.
I have had the ROM or 2 months. I overclocked it to 1.8 GHZ the other day and locked the phone up. I kept trying to reboot and when I did it just locked up. I overcloked in SetCPU, and it was checked "set at boot", so I couldn't get it back down. I kept doing this, tried a factory reset in hboot, and now the only thing the phone does is tries to boot the rom and gets stuck after about 30 seconds.
What can I do? Is this phone fried? I tried to use the command prompt on my computer and can't get anything to communicate with the phone via fastboot USB. Answers needed as I have had a non functioning phone for 4 days. An answer or a link would be greatly appreciated.
Boot into recovery and flash a new rom (or reflash the rom). Make sure you wipe data/cache partitions/dalvik cache before flashing the rom and then wipe the dalvik cache again after flashing the rom.

Can't get into clockwork mod recovery to do that. Don't know what the problem is but I am about to just run this thing over and take it to Best Buy.

Reflash ClockworkMod recovery then, via fastboot. Use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=794638.
So I rooted with HTC method with hboot 1.5.
I have lots of roms on it to check the speed, battery life, features of them but there has been a problem with many ROMs (MIUI, ICS alpha, Mik, Infected, Warm) all will act "wonky" after couple of days of using the rom. They will show red lines, slow downs, temporary freezes, battery would drop by 1% every 30 sec.
So, the usual thing to do is restart and BAM! They rom's logo shows up and it freezes there. Do I need a new radio update or RUU or something?
Never encountered anything close and I've been tweaking phones since the Moto Q days!
New radios might help. Are you wiping EVERYTHING before flashing?
We're comin from a pure power source.
How can I flash this new radio? Just install .zip of the file from recovery, correct?
I do "factory reset" on the twrp 2.0 recovery before I install any rom

Yea. Factory reset isn't enough. I encountered that issue when doin restores on me og evo. I had to wipe cache and dalvik to get it to work.

Use cwm older 4 version as recovery.
Fastboot boot recovery.img. make sure you have a copy of it in your adb folder.
Wipe everything and flash rom
OK ill try that.
What about backup and restores, my nAndroid backups don't work

Either one of two things:
your phone is defective
stop using so many apps for stuff like checking on system statuses. Just install a ROM fresh and leave it for a week with just your base essential apps like email and stuff. If the problem doesnt arise you know all your crap is causing it.
A radio update isnt going to do anything for a system issue as it is just your signal and stuff that the radio firmware would affect.
Sounds like the flash went bad due to not a full wipe or boot.img.
Twrp 2.0 is known to have its own issues.
Update: So I have infected rom installed for a couple of days, installed it using the method mentioned with wiping cache, dalvik cache, system, battery stats and guess WHAT?
It happend again, I would lose touch screen and touch button control, only way to regain control was to close screen by hitting power and waiting a few seconds and pressing it again to open the screen. Got fed up after a while and decided a battery pull, froze of Infected LOGO
Is it the way I flash the rom that is causing issues? I install the zip first with cwm 2.0 then I connect to computer and type "fastboot boot boot.img" to push the boot.img for that rom.

Do this man
Get cwm 4.0 version ok now flash that then leave a copy of it in your adb folder where adb is...
Now make sure debug is on
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot recovery.img
Then wipe everything but not your SD card
and flash rom works this way just like the S off users use. You don't have to use flash gui or pull boot img..
So I took out twrp 2.0 recovery and put clockworkmod 5.0
I don't know why but I cant boot into the recovery without connecting my phone and pushing the .img through fastboot
Well at least two things are solved, after a restart the rom doesnt freeze and I dont have to fastboot boot.img for installing a new rom.

cwm 4 is better for this phone dude. he said 4 not 5.
So i am running the viper rom and it runs awesome. But i really want to install different ROMs when when i use the recovery and back up everything and then reset everything and install the ROMs zip file, it says installed complete and then i reboot from the recovery. When it is booting, it goes to the white screen when HTC in green and then reboots? So it is in boot loop. Anyone have any thoughts on how to fix this? if so that would be great thanks
If you are in a boot loop try checking the integrity of the ROM by running md5 checksum. Re download the rom then clear davlik cache and do a factory reset in Clockwork mod an then re install zip. Remember to get back into clock work mod you hold volume down as you boot the phone.

Sounds like a bad flash. If you are s-on, I recommend you use 4ext as your recovery since this takes care of improper kernel flashes which can cause boot loops. Actually, use it if you are s-off too .
Did you do a super wipe before flashing the new Rom? If not, flash a copy of Chad's super wipe before flashing the Rom.

I am using TWRP recovery right now. I had clockworkmod but it seemed to not work as well. Is there a link to 4ext recovery where i can download and flash it please? Hopefully that will work
Thanks to coal686 for the recovery link in his signature.
I am still stuck with putting a new Rom on my 3d, could anyone help? It still goes in bootloop and I have tried twrp, clockwork, and now 4ext. I factory reset and do what all the threads say but it won't get past the white screen with HTC on it. Then it reboots and does it over and over. Anyone help
Hey guys, I had Android HD Revolution running on my phone, but I hated Sense so I decided to flash CM 10.1 RC4, It was super smooth and good, but battery life was horrible. I then flashed ICJ AOSP to see if it made any difference, same thing. I want to now flash back to a Sense rom (Blade Elite) but I can't seem to get it to flash. I wipe my phone in recovery, wipe partition, wipe dalvik cache, all the usual stuff. Then I enter fastboot, erase cache but then when going to boot the boot.img right after it is done the phone reboots, does a little vibration thing then goes onto a htc screen and just stays there instead of going back to the hboot so I can enter recovery. Then If i hold pwr and vol down to enter recovery and press reboot now it is stuck on boot screen and will not load. The only ROM I can flash is CM10.1 (the only AOSP rom Ive tried) but it doesn't work 100% e.g wifi does not turn on and I can't even flash my nanroid backup of my original rom. HELP GUYS PLEASE?
