Hello all!
This morning my phone decided to reboot over and over again. I got into twp and made a back up of my current ROM. After making the backups I tried to restart and twrp informed me my device was not rooted and asked if I wanted to install SU. I choose no, then rebooted. I tried to restore an older version of my rom twrp gave me a "failed" message. So I tried to reboot and again I got the message from twrp saying I was not reooted and ask to install SU.. so I did.
Since then I can not get back into twrp, I get the twrp splash screen and then the phone bootloops. I tried reflashing twrp 2.6.3.0, 2.6.1.0 and even 2.6.0.0 multiple times with all the same results of twrp splash screen, then phone reboots... Any ideas?
I'm s-off (VIA dirtyraccoon from about 16 months ago)
Hboot: 1.19.0000
EDIT: I used windroid HTC Evo LTE tool kit and s-off'd with faceplam... dunno why but it seems to have fixed it.

My Rezound and I are stuck.
Let me start at the beginning. My Rezound was running “RUU_Vigor_VERIZON_WWE_1.02.605.6” and it was unlocked and rooted. So recently Verizon started forcing this firmware update with no way to stop it that I could find. So I decided to update on my own. I did a Nanoid backup of everything and a Titanium back up of everything. I relocked my phone and I found “RUU-build-4-03-605-2” at Android Police [Exclusive Download] Full RUU Build 4.03.605.2 For The HTC Rezound. So I downloaded it and renamed it PH98IMG.zip. Placed it on my SD card and booted into HBOOT were it loaded the new version. It worked so I unlocked my phone and loaded “recovery-ra-vigor-3.15-gnm.img”. I loaded SU from the recovery had it updated at Google Play. Reloaded Titanium rooted and this is where things started to go wrong. No permissions were being given to Titanium. I tried “recovery-ra-vigor-3.14-gnm.img” and I even tried SUSuper but nothing worked. I went into recovery and did a complete Nanoid recovery. Since then I have not been able to get anything to work. I cannot load any older versions. I try to reload “RUU-build-4-03-605-2” but it makes it to #4 system were it gets stuck in a loop of unzipping and updating.
My very last attempt was to unlock the phone load “recovery-ra-vigor-3.13-gnm.img” go into recovery and do a wipe of everything. Then from XDA-Developers [ROM][ICS Global Phone Update][4.03.605.1] Stock, Root, Deodex, Busybox, Global Phone - xda-developers I downloaded the ICS Global Phone Update Firmware and the ICS Global Phone Update. In recovery I used “flash a zip” to update the firmware. I locked the phone and renamed the Phone Update to PH98IMG.zip. Booted into HBOOT and allowed it to update the software. I instantly powered down and renamed “RUU-build-4-03-605-2” to PH98IMG.zip rebooted to HBOOT and it made it to #4 system where it got stuck in the loop.
When I try just to start the phone it stays on the white HTC screen.
What can I do to get my phone working again? Please be specific with the steps to take because I am still at the bottom of the learning curve.
One other question: Can my Nanoid backup recover the data for the internal card so Titanium will be able to recover my programs.
Thank You SOOOOOOO very much for your help.

You tried in recovery turning on Full Format and formatting "system"?
Also try loading a custom rom and flashing it via recovery and see if everything works properly
Don't use the Su option in recovery always flash SU using one of the flash zips either SuperSU or Superuser

Thank you for your response. I went into “Recovery – Wipe” and selected “Toggle Ext Full Wipe”. Then I went to “Format “ and selected “Format all to ext3”. It showed me the warnings and I pressed power to continue.
I tried to recover using my Nandroid backup but it did not work. So I formatted a second time. This time I flashed the firmware zip file and it worked 100% this time. Rebooted to HBOOT/Fastboot and locked the phone. The phone rebooted and made it all the way through setup and to home screen. Software version 4.0.3-605.1 so why stop there. I booted into HBOOT and let version 4.0.3-605.2 load and it made it to “System” and got stuck in the loop.
So to make a long story short I started all over again and flashed the ICS Global Phone Update Firmware. I verified that everything was up and running. Then I tried one last thing. I went into recovery and did a Nandroid recovery. I only selected “Data” and “Ext-card” and let it go. I am now fully operational with all of my programs including my wallpaper. The only thing I can tell I lost was Titanium Backup’s backup. Everything shows no backup and no files are frozen.
Thank you again for your help. :good:
So I bought a Thunderbolt off eBay. Seller said it just had a cracked screen. Replaced that and come to find it's in a boot loop. It won't boot into the ROM or into Recovery. No big deal..
I go into hboot, unlock the bootloader, great.
Now, however, I am trying to install a recovery, and it won't even boot into recovery, just shows the splash image and then reboots into a loop. I've tried installing, CWM (touch and non), amon-ra, and one other one, all with the same results.
I tried flashing the latest ruu to get back to step 1, but I get the message that the mainver is older than currently installed and it won't let me install the ruu.
Any ideas?
I have had TACHYON-1.1.5 install for awhile. I rebooted my phone and I cant get into the ROM anymore. The screen is just black. I can get into recovery and reflash, but nothing happens... I cant seem to mount SD card in recovery either. Using CWM recovery.
If its easier can I just bring my phone back to bone stock? I am S-ON rooted, unlocked.

are you s-on did you fastboot flash the boot.img
Edit: And your mount issues are caused by the fact that you never reapartitioned and formatted internal sd and emmc using TWRP only

Reventech, I have a similar problem which suddenly arose on Vanir yesterday evening. I am bootloader unlocked, using vinylfreak's 2.27 hboot, and I am S-OFF. I can reflash TWRP 2.6.3.0, I can even run and get a nandroid to restore and boot, and the system works completely normally. I can make calls, connect, BT, etc. etc., but when I reboot, the phone runs the splash, then the boot animation, then sits at the black screen. I have run this now twice, completely restoring my ROM and still get hung after boot.
Utterly bizarre.
Any suggestions? Switch to Amon Ra 3.16 and try to re-wipe boot image (I know TWRP can't wipe boot) then reflash TWRP and restore prior nandroid of boot? I'm positively flummoxed.

That worked for a bit, but darn if I didn't do a Nandroid and then the unit failed to boot again. This is so frustrating.
UPDATE: Flashed new nightly and we're back in business.
My name's Harold and I'm a flashaholic....
Hi all,
Any help please? After nearly 2 years of having my HTC One M7 and not rooted a phone since either. Decided today would be the day and yep I cocked it up.
All was going well, unlocked bootloader, installed TWRP, installed SuperSu.
Rebooted then problems started, SU was not installed correctly, said binaries needed updating and would need to be done manually. Updated superuser with latest 2.46 update file through TWRP. Phone is now stuck on HTC One boot logo. I did a nand backup before SU update and that just boots back to TWRP.
Any help please?
Regards

which version of twrp do you have, binary update is often needed, nothing really wrong with that, while the bootloop could be due to a faulty version of twrp. if you have 2.8.6.0 you should look for 2.8.6.1 and chances are good that the problem is gone. of course i dunno what else could have gone wrong, just seeing that you freshly installed and that this could be the reason. hope it helps.
Hello,
I've encrypted my SM-G850F a few months ago. As I got tired of waiting for Samsung to release the marshmallow update, I rooted today with autoroot-chainfire method. I flashed an image of twrp recovery 3.0 with flashify and when I tried to backup, a lot of errors showed up. I remembered it's because the device is encrypted.
So I tried to decrypt it in the security menu. At the moment it has stock rom and twrp recovery.
It's been decrypting for over an hour and a half with the green droid logo. I think it's stuck in this process.
I tried to search for a solution but without any luck. Can any of you guys help me?
