I wiped system when I was flashing a new ROM and the ROM did not flash correctly so I tried to reboot and manually put into recovery but the phone will only boot to white HTC screen. I don't know if there is anything else I can do to force the phone into recovery? I tried the volume up/down with power every way I could.
Thank you for the help in advance!

Keep holding power button and volume down for awhile it will put you into recovery
Just to let you know please search the forms before starting a new thread because this issue has been answered more than one time in this section. Not trying to be mean but it's an easy way to fix it. Just side load the rom.

Rebooted my X2 this morning and now stuck in a force close loop saying the application Launcher (com.koushikdutta.launcher2) has stopped. Ive seen the thread where this was happening on the gtab and sounds identical to my problem. But how to fix this on my X2? please help.
Grab a launcher from a rom and boot into recovery and install it by sticking in an update.zip template

thanks for replying so quick. Im new at this so please excuse the "noobness" but how to get a luancher from a rom and boot into recovery when i cant get out of the force close loop? Also, Ive seen methods talking about using rsdlite and flashing sbf. Think that may help? Thanks again.
Do you happen to have another launcher on the phone by chance? If you do, then maybe wipe data/cache and reboot. To get into recovery just plug your charger in while the phone is off and it'll boot into recovery..If you've selected recovery mode last.

what do you mean by select recovery last?
I had the same problem with adw once. I googled uninstalling packages with adb.you already know the package name so it should be cake.

A simple test: Power off & plug the phone into the charger. If it boots into recovery you can wipe cache & dalvik then reboot. It may take care of it.
If you plug it in while off & it boots to the big green battery, you'll probably have to sbf.
Can you get into the stock android recovery? If so, a data wipe through that may work as well.

Plug phone up while fully off and do NOTHING. If it goes to Green Battery, Battery Pull and turn back onholding volume down. When you see FASTBOOT at top of screen, Press volume down until you see Recovery. Press Volume up. When you get to stock recovery. Wipe Cache. Reboot phone. ON the popup select your blur launcher if it shows up.
To fix issue. Go to system/app or data/app and fix your permissions to rw-r-r to that launcher. This will fix your issue.
thanks for your guys help. I am able to get into the phone
my evo 3d is a 1.5 so i rooted it with HTC and put custom recovery. Tried to flash other rom today and would just boot loop. Once i went back to recovery i am allowed to flash but same boot loop even after different roms, dirffernt format all zips. So i tried to reapply the recovery.......
Now i have no recovery, just stock at bootloader. Is there a default RUU somewhere i don't even care if i lose root at this point. Im phoneless....... ;
Thanks in advance.
So as long as your phone still turns on some what you don't have a brick. What I would do is a hard reset: volume up+volume down+power I think?
If that doesn't work try finding an RUU on Google somewhere I'm sure you'll find one.

Thanks, but I have the same situation, but volume up + volume down + power != hard reset? I have tried and just can not boot up, just stuck at the splash screen:-(

Do you which RUU is the correct one by any chance, i found three??
What do they all say? I'm assuming they vary on the hboot version but I'm probably wrong.

Alright I just traded for a photon the guy told me it was stock and wasn't rooted. Well it was rooted and on 4.5.1A-1_SUN-198.6. The bootloader was locked though. I came tried to boot into recovery and there is no recovery there. I unlocked the bootloader and tried to install the bootstrap it worked at first but when I rebooted and tried to go back into recovery again there is none on the phone. So whats my best course of action? Use RSD go back to complete stock and start over or is there a fix for this?
i think you are mixing things up a bit, bootstrap is an app that launches a custom made recovery that is kinda like a livecd version of cwm. you have to unlock and then flash it in order for it to stick
I would double check to see if you still had root. if not, you have to re-root. then install http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1218417
[Unlocked Only][RECOVERY][2011-09-23] Custom CWM-based Recovery 5.0.2.3-photon2.
I remember having the same problem. I just had to repeat some steps.

Just rsd to the latest sbf once booted go into settings . Then privacy. Then factory data reset. OK now power off. Turn on holding volume down an power once screen says fastboot, let go and press volume down til u see android recovery. Press volume up to start it. When the icon comes up press volume down and volume up at same time. Now you are in recovery do what u need in there and soon you will back to 100% stock.

Alright i have it all figured out now, just wanted to say thanks again for the help. This phone is a powerhouse I must say. I'm very pleased so far.

Never mind. Mods, please delete. Sorry!
Try removing your battery for about 10min, and then try for download mode again. ..if u get dl mode, i would recommend going back to stock before trying another custom rom. . Heard of it working in a similiar predicament, hope this helps.

I found that the recovery problem was that I had initially read to hold down power and volume up, instead of both volume buttons.

1st do some research
2nd Rom Manager is useless to our device
Unless you're fixing permissions
3rd if you flashed touch CWM boot up into it
By holding power button volume up and down buttons at the same time
Search don't be lazy threads like this clutter the forums
And if someone has been nice to you or helped you out
Slap that thnx button!
Have a good day

Power phone off. Hold both volume buttons. Then while holding them, hold power button also. When the phone vibrates, let go of power button. When you see Samsung, let go of volume buttons.
Do some more research before you put stuff on your phone. You can mess it up by not reading first. Read much. Read often.
