Recently flashed the liquid ICS JMOD rom and it worked awesomely up until this morning. I guess it started two days ago when my SD card would randomly unmount and i couldnt access my music or anything. usually a trip to 4EXT recovery and a manual mount would fix it but when i went to restart it never came back on. I cant boot into boot loader or regular boot , any suggestions?
Have you tried booting without the SD card?

yeah no dice i cant get any response from the Power button it doesn't do the vibration no HTC screen nadda!
I forgot to point something out. when i rebooted to recovery it did go in but it wasnt getting a read from the SD so 4 ext booted in safe mode. once in their i hit reboot and thats when it decided to never start again.
Sounds like you have the dreaded broken SD port. Does you SD card read on your PC? If it does then backup the sd card and try reformatting it and put everything back. Then try booting.

Have you tried that yet? I have one that did basicly the same thing. Was restoring a backup cuz it was freezing. Recovery rebooted by itself twice while trying the restore. Finally finished and hit reboot. Stuck on splash screen so I pulled the bbattery. .hasn't booted since,computer can't see it, charging LED doesn't come on, can't get to bootloader. It pretty much died right there in my hands.swapped battery, USB cable and SD card with my other tbolt to check those possibilities.
First part about your sd card. I had this happen to my sd card and one day the card died. I tried to have it read on my computer and it wouldnt read. As for your second issue I have seen on different forums about this happening and so far no one has been able to fix it. Sad to say but your bolt is probably bricked.

hey guys im kinda in some desperate need for help lol. so i had twrp 1.1.1 installed, but i wanted to go to 2.1 and try it out. i successfully flashed 2.1 and booted back into system. i wanted to flash leedroid tweaks so i booted back into 2.1 recovery and flashed it. it went through but i cannot get past the splash screen. i tried to boot into recovery through fastboot to make some changes, but i cannot get throuh because i still have that zip on my sdcard and it asks me to apply the update every time. im not sure what to do at this point...anyone have some help they can give me?
Another reason why twrp sucks.
Just do a full wipe and reflash the Rom you were currently on.

PG86IMG.zip is the file you speak of and no...youll know if you install that bc of the screens that load up
finally got it. i couldnt access anything because my phone couldnt get to recovery. i ended up having to go and buy a sd card with an adapter to manually move the files around. i had to go back to twrp 1.1.1 through bootloader and then reflashing a rom. what a mess. but its all good.

damn all you had to do was pull the sd card, boot to bootloader, take the back off, pull battery, put sd in, put battery back, and unplug. Glad you got it figured out though, I just wish I got here sooner.

it seems I have the worst of what the gentlemen has.Actually I have been stuck at the splash screen for
more then and 30min each time before the boot loop.I have had it unlocked in managed to install sos m rom but never was able to boot into it so I tried mean roms same issue.I then re locked ,installed the
htc dev stock rom still stuck at boot screen,now have unlocked again and still stuck
at boot screen following your immediate method no results any help is greatly appreciated
hboot 1.5 S-on unlocked

I'm having the same problem. I figured out by holding down the power button for 20 seconds when its stuck in the splash screen it will bypass the issue. If that doesn't work pull the battery out and put it back in. Hold down the power button down 20 seconds while it attempts to boot.... hopefully that will get it to boot into what ever Rom you previously flashed. I have flashed, several differant roms, done super wipes, modified wipes, flashed differant recoveries, updated the radio, and I'm still having issues where I get stuck in the splash screen or I have issues where I can't boot into recovery (its a hit or miss after a couple of different approaches)
This all happened after I went from ICS back to GB (mean rom)

since last talking with you I have fixed my problem thank you for the drive to keep searching to fix it as I was close to selling it in its last state.But im good now for the loop there is a fix for that try this
http://d-h.st/dCB
I recently was trying to upgrade from ICS Dev edition 1.2 to 1.4 and i installed it just fine through recovery..... my device is S-ON still so rebooted to the bootloader to flash the kernel and it went smooth. Allow it to load up, skip the account install info..... get to the main screen and let everything settle in then reboot, upon the next reboot i get to the main screen and try and login to my google play account to start downloading apps and my phone reboots itself after the push from gmail comes through. It does this upon every attempt at restarting the phone. I did a battery pull and cannot get back into recovery because the kernel image is still on the root....I cannot figure out what to do as i have never had this much trouble with a rom before. I know there is away to relock my device and install the latest RUU and get back to working but i dont know how to get into my bootloader to do all this. If anyone could help me out it would be great appreciated as im banging my head here trying to get a functioning phone back.
If you have an external sd card reader, use it to erase the ph98img.zip file. Otherwise you can boot phone with sd card slid partly out, slide back in when booted into recovery, takes a little dexterity.

You could use an old phone, if you have it, to rename/delete the file. As to the original problem, if you are still on GB firmware, make sure to flash the patch, too.
If you would of just flashed the old firmware patch you would not of faced this issue

To make it easier, if you're using TWRP just mount USB storage in recovery.

Your phone isn't bricked. You have to have the SD Card slide partially out and hold the battery down hard so it still powers on. Go to bootloader and go to recovery and then you can slide the SD back in and boom you're golden. No worries

thanks for the help guys.... i couldnt ever get it to boot into amonra recovery so i just relocked and ruu'ed the latest (and most likely official) ics leak..... im back up and running. if it turns out this leak isn't the final i will just have to run that ruu when it comes out.

I can also confirm that it is likely to blank your SD card if you're not careful. Make sure you backup your SD card before trying this method.
And yes, I it happened to me.

this method DOES work. all this method does is Bypass the "PH98IMG" scanner so it wont find it because the SDcard is not inserted in Properly. so it will then continue into hboot which would allow you to access your Recovery which would then help you to fix your problems.
I tried flashing the Mean Bean rom. I'm not a noob when it comes to flashing, but I made a noob mistake. I just got my phone and forgot to image before I wiped and tried flashing. The rom was stuck at "format /system" for 20 minutes. I held down the power button, and now, since I didn't image the stock, I can't start the phone (it gets stuck at the white screen) and now when I try to install the rom again, the zip is missing.
I have no idea what to do next. I am downloading all of the ruu files and I'm going to run each one until one works, but I'm not sure if that's even going to fix the problem.
Any help would be more than appreciated.

Can you expand a little bit? I went into settings and there wasn't anything there to mount. I went into mount and marked "mount SDCard," and I went back to install and nothing popped up. I do have a ROM on my SD card, but its not the same rom. Its a rom I know that works.
EDIT: I noticed it was wanting to use an internal SD card, not an external. Switched it, and bam, works. I'll let you know if it flashes properly. Thank you for the help. This forum is the best, without a doubt. Never lets me down.

Got it to flash properly. Thank you again everyone, especially gmoe65!
Do you have any data you need or can you do full wipe? if that is possible this is a easy way to flash a ruu. 1 download the ruu from this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1744700&highlight=how+to+root the one that is titled PJ75IMG.zip 2. you will need to put it on your external sd card somehow ( easy way would be taking it out of phone and putting it in a different one then move it using that phone, or mabye using twrp recovery if possible make sure it is the external sd though), make sure you put it on the root of the external sd card. 3. boot into bootloader and the file should be recognized and it will ask you if you want to processed click volume up for yes this will bring you back to stock ics and it will also flash a image to the phone. hope this helps
Well let me explain my predicament. The other day I flash somex's something explosive rom after a wipe of the everything I need to wipe ( Data,Cache,Davlik) When it was finished flashing I got to rebooting. I ended up with a blank, yet illuminated screen ( if that makes sense) I waited about 20 minutes. After coming to the conclusion that the ROM doesn't work I did another wupe of everything needed. Then i flashed JoseGalre's ROM since it has aroma it told me that it had an error and coundln't finsih the instalation. I wiped again and reflashed, same error. I wanted to see what would happen if it let it boot up w/o recovery and it ended up in a boot loop. I tried to go back to 4ext and it seemed to load up just fine but half way through the startup it ends up back in the bootloop. I ran Hasoon's all in one kit and flashed TWRP and it worked just fine until I flash a rom. It seemed to be working just fine then it suddenly crashes and we're back in the loop. I've been trying to fix for the last few days but to no avail. I marked the title as urgent because my parents are going out of town for the weekend and I really need a phone. They havn't a clue that it doesn't work becausse they get home before me. Any help would be appreciated a great deal.
I've had something similar happen and freaked out my phone was down for half a day.
Try booting into the boot loader by holding vol down and power boot into recovery, wipe everything then format everything except SD card and try restoring a backup. Hopefully you made one or two in the past.

I don't think you wiped properly. You needed to format ALL PARTITIONS. I can't stress that enough lol.
Edit: Go into bootloader first. Hold volume down then hold power as well. Choose recovery and format all partitions. If that works you're good! :thumbup:
Use the toolkit and flash 4ext. And make sure whenever you flash Roms that you format all partitions.
If that doesn't work you need to flash a RUU, get it back to stock, it will still retain S OF. Then flash 4ext again. Your problems should be fixed for sure if my first method doesn't work.

So i changed the name of the RUU i download to PH85img.zip and use the all in one tool kit to flash it. The black htc loading screen came up. I waited until it finished and then the bootloader came up with a list of things it head to unzip and then load. After all of that was finished it gave me an error. After reading a message that you should get an error ( i now realize this was at another stage) so i though nothing of it and rebooted. A black screen with 4 warning triangles came up. I let it load all day and when i got home i plugged it back in and I noticed it looked like it was unplugging after securing the charger in I came the conclusion that it wasn't holding a charge and dying on the battery. Normally I would leave it alone but when you plug in the charger it turns itself on. I've began living with the fact that my phone is bricked. But any help would be appreciated.
BTW is there a way to get data (music pictures contacts) that were saved on the internal storage?
Probably should have gone with full caps on the PH85IMG.zip
It's easier just to put the zip on your external sdcard and gone in to bootloader.

I have odin back to stock. Factory reset in rom and recovery. I have tried a new recovery. Used the pit file while odin back. I have ##rtn# Changed battery. Changed usb port. I will have to look in the data corruption thread. I feel like it will be something dumb.
