so i tried to flash the full rooted ruu rom via hboot, i had it sitting on my table with the batt door off and knocked it on the floor ( accident ofcourse ) and the batt came out halfway during the process so now it goes into the htc screen then blank htc screen then blank and i cant get into cwr so my question is can i salvage it or am i f**ked?
Have you tried hbooting to recovery? Volume up and power down when the phone boots up.
cant keep it in cwr long enough to do anything, keeps rebooting and when it does go into cwr it says something like cant mount cache i think

Flash the stock ruu in hboot. Would be my only guess.

+1. That's exactly what would have worked. I know it's too late for the lad now, but for future users...
If you're ever stuck in a boot-loop and can't hboot into recovery, you'll need to copy and past the PGIMG05.ZIP file onto the root of your SD Card. This will be about a 200-400 meg file and would usually be a stock rooted RUU or stock signature RUU. After it's on the root of your SD, make sure it's the only PGIMG05.zip file on there! Then start the phone by holding down power + volume up. This will force the phone to hboot the PGIMG05 file which will get you past the boot-loop.
For some it's a good idea to have insurance too.
You can get a replacement minus the deductible if you "lose" your phone.
Just make certain you call VZW as soon as you lose it.
I don't suggest selling the phone for parts and saying it's lost, but I'm sure others have done this to cover their deductible.
Those without insurance...I have heard people have had great success with warranty replacement when using over the phone support when the phone doesn't boot or bootloops.
Since you send the phone back to VZW by mail, their replacement standards are much lower than dealing with their retail and face to face support.

I'm new to this, just rooted my thunderbolt the week before last (have rooted a total of 4 phones though since and created my own bootimage with sound and everything! lol!), and that's what came to mind when I read the original post but I didn't "know" for sure. Thanks for confirming it. This stuff is fascinating to me. I like to understand what is going on. I'd like to someday write my own rom. Perhaps it's a pipe dream but is there someplace you could point me where I could start my education?

Putting the stock Rom on took the root off of it but didn't fix my boot loop. So I returned it and got a free thunderbolt.

Your the reason Verizon hates rooters you are wasting there money on a device that is out of warranty because you would rather send it back than fix it yourself.

I believe you could start with os kitchen or another UI for extracting certain parts of a rom. I think in large part its knowing java script.

Hey everyone, I googled this and searched xda and I can't find anything so I thought I would just ask.
I am running a pre-rooted stock rom with the update. Completely stock except for root. When the screen has been off for a few minutes it will autorotate to landscape a second after I unlock it. This happens even when the phone is completely still, and vertical. I am lost as to why this is, as it does it about 90% of the time. Locking the phone and then immediately unlocking it doesn't recreate the problem, the screen has to be off for about 3-5 minutes. It is irritating. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

I think this is a bug in sense 3.0 and sense 3.5 because i noticed the issue in all custom sense roms including virtuous affinity and bliss ports on my glacier.

go to settings, display, and uncheck autorotate on...hold the power button and press restart, do not turn off and on, just press restart...the go back and check autorotate on again...see if that helps.
That seems to have helped. Tried to recreate the issue a few times since trying the fix above, and it isn't doing it. Still early though. I'll post again if it persists. Thanks for the help

Okay, so the problem it's still there. I had to go to work shortly after my last post and just got home and around to posting about it. I don't seem to recall having this issue with the stock rom without the ota update. Guess I'll just have to wait for a good rom to flash, and how that the problem is gone. Thanks for the tip though.

there are always going to be some bugs with roms, even with the cyanogen mod rom, which is the biggest of them all there are bugs...even with oem stock roms there are bugs...all you can do is try another one, or contact the developer
So, recently, my touch screen has been pretty wonky. Sometimes it doesnt work at all and even pulling the battery and booting it back up doesn't fix it. Sometimes when it locks The screen isn't responsive afterwards to unlock but then locking and waking the screen again fixes it. Just wondering if there is a fix for this or if anyone else has had these same problems. I've trued full CWM wipes and Fastboot wipes and also tried different ROMs. Any help would be cool but if not I may just have to ditch the MAtrix for a different phone until my upgrade.
What is your phone currently running at the moment?

So, I've been using the Wet Dream blur ROM for the past week and it's acting about the same way. I haven't had to go to the extreme of wiping it yet while on Wet but unresponsiveness is still a problem here and there.
EDIT: I haven't had touch capability since the 10th. I've tried flashing a couple other ROMs to no avail and don't really know what to do at this point.
Is a warranty claim even possible or would it just be a futile effort?
EDIT II: Sent it in on a warranty claim. We will see what happens I suppose. If not, I'm going GSII
EDIT The Third: Well, after fruitcake back to stock I sent it in and they fixed it all up and sent it back to me. So, that's that for what it's worth. Like the sig says my MAtrix got stolen so I'm on to the GSII forums but I'm definitely going to keep up with what's going on with Atrix.
Didn't see anywhere in the thread if the bluetooth was or wasn't working. Just though I'd let you guys know that bluetooth crashes my Tbolt. I've tried it a few times, just turning it on crashes and when I try to view the bluetooth menu. And now I'm stuck in a bootloop. This is my first post and due to the sight rules I can't post on the actual thread, perhaps a mod can move this to it. Otherwise this has been great!
Try flashing the imoseyon kernal. This should fix your Bluetooth issues.

You're talking about this one, correct?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1086518
I see that it is a GB kernel and this is an ICS rom. I don't know if that makes a difference. Still pretty new at this, that's why I'm asking.
My apologies. No you cannot use this with ICS. Its early in the morning and thought I read the title to be about Jesters other ROM Jellyblur (GB ROM themed to look like ICS). There are no custom kernals yet for the Thunderbolts ICS until HTC drops the source. I will try to re-create this issue and I will get back with you unless someone gives a solution before me lol. Once again my apologies.
If you are in a bootloop you may have to re-wipe and re-install the ROM. It may have been a bad flash if BT was not working and caused a bootloop.
EDIT: although irrelevent for this ROM, the link you provided is an outdated custom kernal. The Dev has since then updated to 6.2.1

Hi,
Well you are in luck I had the exact same problem today and finally found the fix. I was using the . 9 radio was working fine so thought its ok but since bluetooth was my only issue I flashed ( in hboot) the . 19 radio and now no bluetooth problem. Not only turn it on and off able to use it!
Phone has not rebooted once since I did this.
Hope this helps you out,
Bryan
Swannyman, I suggest you to try out what trapperjohn found before you wipe. I have also heard reports of the latest radio fixing these issues also.

Great!
I love it when a plan comes together.
I also notice alot more 4g speed.
That bootloop sucks.
I wonder if this radio came out when the leak was initially released.
Would explain why on gingerbread we didn't see a big change but obviously the minor change in it was for ics.
Thanks,

Since the problem got solved...figured I'd jump in with a couple issues that I'm having with this rom.
1* I go into settings and to my apps. When I click an app and it brings up the space used and other info...everything says computing and doesn't show a value. I'm trying to move my apps to the SD and it does nothing since they wont compute. Anybody with this issue...a fix?
2* When I get a SMS, the LED keeps blinking after the message is closed or replied to. It stops after a few minutes, but its annoying. I have GoSMS.

1. Wait and let it total all the apps before entering to move them. It may take a minute if you have a lot of apps.
2. That's a bug with gosms. I never could figure out a fix other than disabling the led notification.

Hi,
Have you rebooted since installing the rom?
Usually a reboot and waiting 5 after boot corrects this problem.

I traded my other phone for an HTC One today and I'm loving it! But I'm having an issue with the camera... No matter what settings I choose or how much I tap to focus, it's always blurry! The phone was rooted with twrp recovery and android revolution rom pre-installed, but I don't know if its bootloader unlocked or s-off... All I know is I went into twrp and wiped caches and data/factory reset and logged into all my accounts... The camera sometimes manages to focus and works, but the rest of the time it just stays blurry... Any thoughts?
EDIT: I attached a picture I just took of my headphones so you can see what I mean...
That's your problem, you have apple headphones.

as above post states, you probably need to revert to stock to get rid of any lingering settings from a rom that could be causing it.
I actually did so, but still the problem presisted... I ended up returning it and getting a new replacement One thanks for the tips both of u!

Is it possible to restore to stock without being S-Off? I am currently having the same issue and was going to revert to stock and if the issue persists exchange the phone. So I'd like to be completely reverted to stock if I need to exchange it. Thanks for the help!
Ever since I updated to 4.2.2 my camera has been blurry...definitely reverting.

Funny, for a supposed "Better-in-low-light" phone camera, mine is also bad at low light conditions. Slow focusing, also.
That happened to me once, no matter what I tapped on to focus, the camera refused to do so. But I just closed the app and opened it again and it fixed itself. Maybe try that.
