long story short. i updated my Radio using an all in one zip. the update went fine, but i never removed or renamed the pc.img thing. so i went to flash the CM9 Alpha for the evo 3d and when i went to use the superwipe to wipe everything the superwipe was taking longer then normal so i did a battery pull. now i cant get no further the Hboot screen because it keeps updating my radio because i never deeted that file. is there a way to get to the recovery where i can jut rewipe and reflash again? or can i delete that damn pc.img file?
Problem solved. I pulled the sd card out of the phone and put it in my tablet and deleted the pc.img file. Phewwww

I had an issue kinda similar like this and ended up having to flash the RUU through the bootloader. It is the stock firmware 605.19, and I had to reroot. It's a pain I know but it works

I to had to this at one point and it does work. I would first try to flash cwm in fastboot though. Sometimes that works.

My friend's phone tried to pull an OTA while he had CWM recovery installed, and it started boot looping. Had to download the stock recovery, name is PG05IMG.zip in the root of the SDCard, and force the phone to boot to the bootloader and install it. Once it did, the phone started up, rebooted itself, and installed the OTA fine. Sounds like yours may be trying to do something similar?
If so rooted phones need caches cleared for the ota to work.

From my understanding, Rooted can still take OTA, but you have to have stock recovery to do it (as I witnessed earlier). You will lose root, and will have to re-flash recovery to TWRP, CWMR, or whatever your normal choice is, and then re-apply the su.zip, but otherwise easy as pie.

Do you by chance have a working link to the stock recovery? I have been trying to find one without success.

Stock recovery PG05IMG.zip http://dl.dropbox.com/u/61129367/PG05IMG-Stock-Recovery.zip
Hello, first of all I would like to thank everyone who has posted in this thread to try and help out. I just started having a very similar problem- I'm rooted and running stock, but apparently my phone accepted an OTA and I'm stuck in a bootloop as well.
I got into CWM recovery and downloaded the stock recovery PG05IMG.zip, but it won't install. It just aborts every time I try to install it. I'm a noob at this stuff and not very good at dealing with these sorts of things and I've been having a panic attack for the past hour, so if anyone could help me as soon as possible I would really appreciate it.
I'm really scared of making things worse than they already are. I just want a working phone.

pull battery, wait a minute, turn on phone
when in bootloader screen,
volume down, select reboot
back to white screen, select recovery ( i had to do this twice)
hold volume up and power when black screen appears
choose the bottom option (wipe cache i believe)
choose reboot
phone should be good aftter this
( idont own a thunderbolt, but i had to fix this for a nother phone, called tech support and this worked)
hope this helps - hopefully saves someone from ruu'ing and wiping their phone
Thank you for posting the file, life got in the way yesterday. Hope that fixes your situation!

The zip won't work in CWM because it's not designed for use with CWM. It's designed for use in Fastboot. Should be on the root of your sd card. From off, if I'm correct (like this with other HTC devices), hold volume down and power to boot into fastboot. This will allow it to flash the stock recovery.

Right. I also have a recovery zip that installs the stock recovery if anyone wants it?
It can be found here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/61129367/OTARestoreAndRecovery.zip
(warning: I have tested it and it works but it did cause me a bootloop, and im assuming this is becuase im on a different rom - - - so not responsible for any damages)

Can anyone help?
I'm not a noob, I've been flashing for years but I can't seem to get any Roms I flash to boot after. I just get stuck at the disclaimer boot screen. It stays there, no boot up.
Things I've tried, waiting of course for 10+ mins. Moving the Rom zips to internal sd then flashing. And redownloading the roms and trying again. Roms I've tried are, Meanrom and stock w Sony bravia engine.
Really sucks I can't figure out why I can't boot any new Rom flashes. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I'm having this exact issue. Rooted and flashed a couple of ROMs. Backed one up and now I can't boot into any new ROMs, even stock ROMs. They flash fine in recovery but do not pass the HTC disclaimer screen.
Did you by chance select Factory Reset from bootloader with TWRP installed? When I do that it reboots into recovery and cannot mount internal storage. When I try to mount internal storage to my PC through USB it says SD is corrupt and I must format. I have a suspicion that has something to do with not being able to boot new ROMs.
Have you tried to RUU? I've tried just to see if I can get my phone to boot into anything, but I get an error updating signature. Signarure (sic) Error 132.
Something I haven't tried yet would be to flash a ROM and make a nandroid before first boot, then try restoring it to see if it boots. Might be crazy enough to work.
Please post if you manage to solve this annoying soft brick!

We didn't always have s- off and people were flashing fine.. I'm still s- on and running MeanROM myself.
I have non clue what the issue here is, maybe running the ruu and re- rooting?

Flash a recovery

trying to find one.. been a while since ive done this. adb does not want to work on my computer
Exact same thing happened to me. What fixed it for me: Download twrp 2.2.0 from their website. Since adb is acting up, use the pg..zip one that flashes from fastboot. Copy to root of sd card and boot phone into fastboot. The directions are on their website in more detail.
