So I tried flashing nottachtrix 4g and I've ended up in a CWM bootloop, everytime I reboot it just goes to CWM. I tried doing a recovery of my backup but that didn't work. Tried reflashing nottachtrix again, still doesn't work. Any tips?
thanks
Either download notachttix again or a different rom, wipe system, data, cache and try again.
Hope it helps

Tried that, no different, keeps booting into CWM recovery
Not sure if you tried flashing anything else, but if you are doing a restore make sure you are using the same CWM that you made the backup with.
I went through something like that with my OG SGS a couple years back...

Yea using the same CWM, still nothing. tried flashing a couple different roms, no dice.
Ok so I can get it to boot by holding volume down when booting and choosing boot android(no bp). But every time I reboot, it will still go to CWM. When i do get it to boot tho, I dont have any network reception, it says the baseband version is unknown

ok try flashing a radio thru recovery
Ok so it seems that booting to android(No BP) makes it so there is no phone signal, so that's not an option... The problem remains then, any ideas on how to get it to boot and not go to recovery...?
Alright so I can boot by doing "fastboot boot boot.img" where boot.img is from the rom I installed. It looks like my bootloader is defaulting to recovery for some reason? How can I make it default to android again?

I tried to install Cognition 1.5.1 zip which CWM4 showed as successful, but am running into a problem of constant reboots to recovery. I wiped data and cache before installing the zip too. If i try to select power off it just reboots back into recovery. pulled battery turned phone on still goes recovery. any suggestions?
Edit: ended up going download mode and flashing base KH3, still could use suggestions on what to do to avoid it happening again.

Try reading the sticky.

Hi,
yesterday I tried to upgrade to CM7.2 from a nightly. As I've been doing, I put the .zip in the sdcard and flashed it with ROM Manager (wiping everything). After flashing it, my phone stucked at HTC white screen and there is no way to switch it on, it stays at this screen all the time.
For my disgrace, it's S-ON, so I can't boot into recovery and restore anything. I've tried to restore a nandroid with fastboot and it doesnt't work (says "Failed (remote: signature verify fail)").
Any ideas? It's definetly bricked? Is there any hope of repairing it?
Thanks in advance (and please forgive my poor english xD)

What do you mean you cant boot into recovery because you are S-ON?
All you need to do is put the recovery file other wise known as flakeflash "UPDATE.ZIP" into the root of the SDcard, turn off your phone (Pull Battery), then press the down button and power button together, wait for the phone to do its stuff, then select recovery in the menu, the phone will reboot into red exclamation mark, press volume up and power, it will then go into stock recovery menu and will then look for the "UPDATE.ZIP" if all is well you should then go into the fakeflash version of clockworkmod recovery.
Does it boot when USB cable is plugged in (soft usb brick)?

Thank you very much, now I can boot into cwm, but I'm having some troubles when trying to flash CM7.2 (or even trying to restore any nandroid backup).
First, when I try to install CM7.2, it does it very fast, without showing any error, but when I restart the phone it gets stuck again on HTC screen.
Then I try to restore a nandroid backup but it doesn't find boot.img, system.img and data.img, skips all steps and restores nothing.
My last shot, try to install the last nightly I used, fails at the same point as when I try it with CM7.2.
I don't know what else can I do, any ideas? I hope there's still any chance for my Legend (and again forgive my bad english xD)
A few points, make sure the rom zip file you are going to flash is not corrupt or incomplete.
Boot into cwm recovery,
Make sure to format the boot, system, data, cache & ext, it wouldn't hurt to delete the dalvik cache too before flashing new Rom. Just remember NOT TO FORMAT SD card.
Using this method I have always been able to flash a new Rom.

Prepare a new SD card in your PC (FAT32), put UPDATE.ZIP on it and a stock ROM, reboot into recovery, wipe all you can (factory settings) and flash the stock ROM, see if that works. If so, you could try to flash a custom ROM.
That is what I would try...
I'm too.
I can't up CookROm by Rom Manager,
but when i use ClockworkMod recovery, its OK

I am stuck in CWM recovery. No matter how many times i flash a ROM after wipe data/cache partition and dalvik i still boot only into recovery when the ROM asks to reboot the device.
Here's what happened
1. Had a nandroid backup of older version of CWM mostly 5.0.2.x
2. Based on Nottachtrix thread installed the romracer recovery(updated flashable zip)
3. Updated to Nottachtrix 1.3.1 and successfully booted
4. Figured out that contacts everything weren't synced. So wanted to go back to older CM7 rom using restore ROM
5. Something went wrong during restoration. Data and other wern't restored and i guess only boot had been restored
6. Only boots into recovery thereafter. . Installing nottachtrix again give error at end when it asks to reboot the device: error in sdcard xxxzip status 0 installation aborted
Trying out different things like flashing boot.img, recovery etc battery drained and couldn't flash.
Fasbtoot and other options triggered by using volume buttons and power button works fine. RDS also detects the device but bootloader unknown and other info all were unknown.
Since battery drained i was searching on methods to charge the battery. Had figured out that custom method for charging the phone needs to be implemented.
While playing around again with phone i powered it through directly through charger and opted for linux cold-booting which gave me the battery icon with the question mark on screen. Popped in the battery and it started to charge. So now i know i can charge the battery using this method.
I am yet to make progress on flashing ROM successfully again. Is my backup lost ? Did the error happen because i backed up using an older version of CWM or flashing to Nottachtrix changed something
Help appreciated.
EDIT: Even after applying the backup successfully it still gets stuck in recovery.
Anyone?
Managed to.resolve by deleting partition from recovery which gave me the no os detected starting RSD in 5 seconds scenario. Performed clean wipe etc using fastboot n flashed ROM using Tom racers recovery.

i recently rooted my phone and flashed clockwork and was running beastmode kernal on stock rom.everything was working ok i used to get little glitches here and there so i tried to restore my phone back to factory.i entered the recovery mode and wipe date/factory reset and then went on to restore the backup.everything went smooth until i reboot the phone and now the phone is stuck in the droid(eye logo) and wont past that at all and just glitches and freezes on that screen.my friend has tried to fix it but there is no communication between the phone and the computer(usb debugging must have been disabled when i wipe data/factory reset and i basically cant do anything to fix it.is there a way around this to where i can just reset the phone to factory or install a rom or something

Your phone is not bricked. When the phone is stuck on the droid eye, hold the power button and the volume down key at the same time until it reboots. This will get you into bootloader mode. Press the volume down key to highlight recovery and press the power button to enter it. Once you're in recovery go ahead and restore a backup or reflash something new. Either way make sure to do a full wipe.

thats what i did i restored my backup and this is what happens. and i cannot push any files over to the phone because usb debugging is not enabled so there is no communication between the phone and computer at all
boot into recovery then use "adb push <path to rom> /mnt/sdcard/" to put a rom on the sd then install. Make sure you use a boot.img that came with the rom if it has one as it may cause problems if you don't.
Edit: you will need another rom for this and I would recommend reflashing a boot.img

USB debugging has nothing to do with ADB in recovery, recovery basically has its own kernel and ADB is always enabled. Are you saying ADB doesn't work in recovery? If so, it is probably a driver problem with your computer. Also, some phones randomly get corrupt /data/ partitions (mine used to get them until I started using DSB's stock kernel with system write) and the only way to fix it is to do a factory reset or restore a backup. This might be what happened to you. If so just do a factory restore and see if it will boot.
Perhaps reflashing recovery? Worth a try if ur still having problems, also try installing then uninstalling htcs sync app.

Try restoring back to stock with the Droid DNA RUU, i had issues with it locking up and freezing and i couldnt do a thing with it. i stumbled on the RUU and followed the instructions and re-stocked it. then just root and flash again. worked for me and im now running the Battery Plus ROM and have no issues yet. good luck
Just be sure to re lock before you flash the ruu

My phone recently have gone into a boot loop, so I booted it into recovery and wiped it in order to reflash. But then, when I updated the TWRP recovery to the latest version, the phone stopped bootin into it. Now only the fastboot mode works, and when I try to boot into recovery, it just reboots. I am trying the twrp-3.1.1-0-kenzo on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro. How do I make it work?
When u flashed new recovery did you try booting it using key combo before booting to system

Of course. That's when it just flashes the red light indicator and reboots. In fact, there is no "system" to boot into, as I wiped it clean before reflashing the recovery.

Why did you flash a newer version of TWRP, instead of a rom? Reflash the working twrp which was working before you wiped in order to reflash.

I don't remember which version it was. I think, it was something 2.x.x, and I can't find anything earlier than 3.0.2 anywhere. 3.0.2-0-kenzo also does not work for me.
bro,Install twrp by this method.

I just switched my phone on, and it booted into TWRP recovery that I installed eralier! But all the storage partitions were showing zero size, so I reformatted them and selected "reboot into recovery" option. But it did not boot into recovery, and now it is stuck on the "MI" logo and the "Volume Up + Power" key combo only makes it reboot, just like before. How do I boot into recovery?
I figured it out. The whole deal was about dead battery which caused the device to fail to boot even the recovery, even when charging. It charged up a bit, and I sucsessfully flashed the phone.
