Hi, Im new in the forum and I activated my bootloader to install a custom rom, after 3 days i notice that my phone doesn't charged, it took like 1 hour to get 3% of charge so i decided to get my phone lock again with stock rom of htc. I read in a post where to get the stock rom and how to install it but it never install so i activated bootloader agial to put other rom but it does not recognizes my internal memory and i dont know what to do, i enter to $ext recovery but nothing i cant install a rom my phone it is like a brick, what can i do? (sorry for my english)
okay, first question, what carrier is your phone from? and second question what are you trying to accomplish? do you want to root your phone and flash a custom rom? or do you want to flash your phone back to stock?
Whenever I get charging issues I blame the charger.

So im on das bamf 2.0 with the mr2 radio flashed, i could load the rom and use my phone.But then i decided to unroot the phone, so i flashed the stock rom which worked before and took me back to being on stock and unrooted.But, now when i flashed it said Main Version is lower, in red letters. I now have no root with s-on as well. My phone wont boot because apparently one of the boot images i flashed didnt want to get unflashed. I cant do anything in the bootloader that wont end up with it rebooting the bootloader. I do not have usb debugging on because of the fact that i it FLASHED the pgio5mg or whatever it is that you call it, flashed = turning off usb debugging. Should i try to get a new one from big red? what if they get on to me and not give me a new phone thanks to it saying security warning?
Is there any way for me to be able to use my phone again, whether its getting rooting again or downloading an official gingerbread rom, if thats even out yet?
PLEASE HELP IM ONLY 2 MONTHS IN MY CONTRACT!
Also, at the top of bootloader it says SECURITY WARNING.
u have the wrong radio for the stock phone. u need the MR1 radio. since u still have the PG05IMG on your card it is stuck in boot loop. u need access to a card reader so u can remove that file. that will take care of the boot loop. then just install the MR1 radio.
also if u go to verizon as is, they will not honor your warranty.

You just saved me from a life time of nightmares! But that didnt work, pio5mg or not im stuck in a fruit loop!
The first step after flashing pg05img.zip is to remove it from your sdcard.

That didnt worrrrrrrk, i flashed the default froyo rom which is , like 23 MB, and it loaded it, but nothing happened it just returned me to bootloader menu!
As long as there is no file named pg05img.zip on the root of your sdcard, you can get into recovery from hboot. Are you able to get into recovery?
From what I understand, if you have the wrong radio for your ROM, the only side effect is that you'll have no signal from verizon. It sounds to me like you just need to reflash the ROM to get the phone to boot properly.

The default FroYo ROM and NO ROM for that matter is 23MB! Should be 300ishMB for Sense based ROMs.

^^ what I was about to say.
The radios are close to 23MB but not the roms.
BTW, @OP, doesn't sound like you followed the directions when going back to stock as the security warning was one of the disclaimers.

sorry i meant to say the defualt froyo radio is around 23 mb, i will try to flash this huge rom again, but now i have to wait like three hours cuz every time i try to flash the rom it says BATTERY VOLTAGE IS TOO LOW, and i cannot go to recovery it just takes me back to the hboot crap. I never read that tutortial guess i shouldve, i couldve sworn all you had to do was flash the defualt rom, DANG IT, i think that since i was on gingerbread this piece of shi doesnt want to flash the froyo rom, the fact that im now unrooted it doesnt want me to downgrade, god im never rooting again!
I rooted my phone by using the 3 click method by the unrevoked teem or whatever they are, i downgraded using the downgradepgoi5mg zip file found inside the folder, i dont know if that hepls but i hope it does.

I believe if you want to flash Alien rom, you must unlock the bootloader after you rooted your phone, install recovery, then install Alien Rom. At this time, try to remove the battery and put it back in and turn the phone on again to see whether phone loads. If not, you may need to flash sbf and start over again.

You are correct sir/ma'am...
Must be unlocked before flashing Alien Rom. Use this process to get back up and running and then re-root. But before flashing a full ROM the next time, make sure your bootloader is unlocked. This P-ROM only needs rooted and you can use Bootstrap Recovery to flash it. Its actually a REALLY REALLY good P-ROM. Hope this helps and good luck!
i had figured it out last nite but thnx for the help still.. really appreciate it
I had the stock rom installed but I had recovery on it and I decided to just load the new rom on it and I didn't realize I was suppose to root the phone before flashing. So basically everything was a little weird. When it started and was at the unlock screen it said sim card is locked and I don't have a sim card. Then later when looking at the sd card it was saying -- for the available space and space used. I tried to format it and it said please wait while calculating and was showing some odd algebra equation. Then it just did a soft reset and basically showed the IHO boot screen then the loading screen. No LG icon thus being a soft reset. But that is all it would do. And upon trying to shut it off it was showing no option to shut off just a bunch of odd icons and one saying airplane mode or something with a power icon next to it. So I chose it and it was saying something like reset and it had menu for a title. So I chose it and it shut off. So I was just wanting to make sure that if I rooted it before re installing the IHO that this would clear up those issues.
You need a custom recovery to install custom ROMs. Here is a tutorial how to flash one without rooting.
You need custom recovery to install custom roms and to flash custom recovery without rooting Follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318750

I have this installed on my phone: Xionia_CWMA_12518.6_VM_Recovery-signed and I use it to get the phone formated with a new rom. I know that I can get a custom rom on the phone perfectly fine when it is rooted. I guess since I did it without it being rooted it somehow made things look corrupt after installing the rom without the phone being rooted. I hope that it will work properly when I get the phone re rooted and install the latest version of the rom I use: BACKside-IHO-VM670-11022011 this is the first rom I ever used to get on my phone so I was thinking of sticking with it unless there is a more stable one that performs better and can run most anything thrown at it. As I have run into a few issues with this rom. I can end up having things run off the sd card and they end up crashing the phone and doing a hard reset as well as games or apps not wanting to work at all and give a force close error. I am really wanting to play annoying orange kitchen carnage I have even tried a stock rom at 2.2.1 and it still didn't work. Is there a specific kernel I should be installing or something?

Ok thanks. Just wanted to know as I know how to root and get a rom installed on the phone. So thanks for the help.
After countless hours of research, I decided to unlock my bootloader and to root my Motorola Atrix 4G. With success, I was happy to have everything working and installed the Darkside Custom Rom. I let a friend borrow my phone, and they saw the AT&T system update and they decided to install it. They bring back the phone and the system update has finished and was installing. The phone powers off and starts to install the update. 10% into the install, it stops, and I got the little green droid man with the /!\ behind him. I take out my battery, place it back in after 30seconds. It powers on, boots up, powers off and tries to load the update again. I restart it, but this time quickly going into RomManager and starting it up in Recovery Mode. I go to restore the phone using the file I backed up from the TitaniumBackUp app, everything backs up except the system. I plug my phone into my laptop, and everything is in the folder. I performed a system/factory reset, downloaded the last Gingerbread update, but nothing helps. Anything I try to load it says "Installation aborted". No matter if it's the original update or a ROM I download. Looking up other forums, I notice others that have downloaded the Darkside ROM have had the same; if not similar issues. I apologize for the length of this message, but I wanted to put in as much detail as I could so you know exactly what the issue is. I look forward to hearing from someone, and thank you in advance!!!
You probably need to sbf it back to a stock ROM and start over. I had a similar problem when I first got my Atrix and the AT&T update first came out. I had already rooted it and didn't unlock the bootloader yet. It tried to update and bricked the phone. Got AT&T to give me another though as I had just got the thing.

Thanks a ton! How would I go about doing that?
You need to download motorola RSD app to you computer. Search XDA for stock firmwares and download one. You will then need to use the button combo to get in to RSD. Connect the phone to your computer and make sure it recognizes. I had an issue where one of my laptops would not recognize the phone for anything. I had to use a different laptop. Once it's done you should be back to stock. The bootloader should be unlocked still. Just root and flash your ROM of choice.

Hi all, I am new at rooting/flashing stuff so I messed up my phone yesterday. Rooted my HTC EVO 3D successfully and after installing one of the rom it went into bootloop. Then ive tried several roms but still the same. I didn't even make any backup. Pasting photos of what I am left with. Please help. Thank you in advance.
I don't know gsm, but you definitely need to stay with stock based ROMs when you have s on. Find a stock based ROM and wipe all partitions except SD card and flash the new ROM.
I'm pretty sure viper requires a different hboot, so you'll need s off first
You may need to pull the boot.IMG from the ROM and flash it through fastboot after you install the ROM.
Do yourself a favor and when you get it going, install 4ext recovery. Its much better for our phones.
Make a backup:thumbup:
Hope that helps..

hi hossman, thank you for your post. You were right. I had to pull boot.img from viper files and fastboot it but then wifi was not working so I flashed it again with sensai rom which booted fine and seems to be working fine till now. Rest of the experimentation will do later
Phone wont charge and start
So now when the battery died it wont charge nor turn on. When I plug the charger the red light comes on for a few seconds and then goes off. What do I do to turn it on?
