mine has same issue trying to find out info as well

hold vol + and power for about 10 secs then hold vol down. this will take you back to recovery. if you made a backup restore it, if you didn't make a backup use adb to push the rom to your device, search for side loading rom to device using twrp for more info.

what I ended up doing is downloading in specific the bad boys Rom and using my dongle for usb found the file in recovery and saved it to storage. Then ran the Rom as my os and I was back in business. All this started from me trying to delete the ota that kept popping up everyday and I was in recovery when I accidentally deleted cache and dalvik cache. It was stuck in bootload at which time I did what was described and it worked now I'm tinkering with new roms still a noob but learning fast most important make a BACKUP ASAP!

wiping cache, and delvik cache should never cause a android rom not to boot. I wipe both of these on my m8 every once in a while to spped it back up.

I agree which makes this case all the more weird but I promise you that's what happened to me. I've done it before and nothing like this happened is why I felt safe in doing it but it bit me this time I should have made a BACKUP anyway.

HTC Rezound Stuck on HTC boot screen, HELP PLEASE!

so i went to switch out my battery and when i turned the phone back on it vibrated and displayed the white htc screen, then went black for a second and then stays on the white htc screen forever! Im a total noob when it comes to all the technical stuff about RUU's Kernels Roms and whatnot. I can get to bootloader, but i tried to do factory reset and it showed a green circle with a loading bar but then it changed into a red triangle with an exclamation. I tried flashing amon ra recovery but it doesnt work, although TWRP works. While in TWRP though, whenever i try to flash a zip file, it fails and says something like E:failed to mount /cache E:failed to mount /system E:failed to mount /data. Please help me i need this phone working to help me at my job. If someone can walk me through what i need to do i would REALLLYYYY appreciate it. Like i said though, i am a noob so i need realy stupified instructions lol. Thanks

First you should go to shipped-roms.com and download the vigor ics ruu.exe, the rezound downloads there are under vigor . Plug your phone into your computer and from hboot highlight fastboot press power and run the .exe file from your computer and follow the on screen instructions, this will return your phone to full stock ics. Make sure you download the vigor ics ruu.exe as the GB ruu will not work with s-on.
You can also download this: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/ it's the latest ruu it'll update your hboot, stock recovery, rom, and radios, to latest stock. Just download, rename the zip file to PH98IMG (don't include .zip it is a zip file it'll add it on its own in hboot) put it on your sd card, not in a folder just on. Put it back in your phone and boot to bootloader and runn the update, when it powers off. Run it again. (As it has to update the hboot to 2.27 first)Then you'll be on the stock latest. Then root and Rom from there. Of you need help pm me for my gtalk and I could walk you thru it..

Same exact problem. Installing zip now, god i hope this works!!
So my screen is the exact same, i tried to flash a kernal for not only wrong phone but wrong carrier too. Anyways no OS, when i try to flash either of the ways you have explained they both dont work. When i put it on the sd card as PH98IMG it looks like it loads it in the upper right then thats it. regular bootload screen after that nothing happens. try to load it by opening the application after im plugged in as fasboot usb and the program says Install script setup launcher has stopped working. I have been able to flash liquids rom and looks as if it is booting but waited 24 min and nothing happpend just stayed on boot screen. So im just trying to get back to RUU then work from there.

You need to extract the boot.IMG from liquid Rom and rename it ph98img and put that on your sd card or in the folder with adb and fastboot flash it using fastboot flash boot boot.img

ooooh older stuff ick lol...do you have your htc sync drivers installed....what os are you on? are you s-on? what hboot you on? you need to be wiping before rom install and not after....are your issues pertaining to random reboots?

Yes i did reinstall my HTC Sync drivers, I have been wipining factory reset, cache, system, dalvick cache before i flash a new rom. I am S-On. Havent really determined a reason to go s-off yet, i am messing up my phone good enough with this let alone a paperclip. no problem with random reboots. I finally decided to go to a custom rom bc i was sick of my phone rebooting for OTA updates then being late for work. So the 3 roms i have now tried are Liquid smooth which i liked but i couldnt get mms messages to show up on phone. Also it wouldnt change from silent to a beep for text message notifications. i could select it but it would stay as silent. So.... I flashed ViperRezROm which i just didnt like the look and theme. So i finally flashed Cyanogen ROM and come to find out its the same kernal as Liquid smooth so it looks the same and I like that but I still cant change the notification from silent to a beep for text messages. So i never know when i get a text.
Still working on trying to flash a newer version of TWRP.
Then this time flashing I tried to titanium backup and went to load my backup and it cant find it.... WTF
UGH... Learning so much with this stuff. just taking alot of patience.
Thanks again for yalls support, I love this forum.
Mike
BTW just to note...if your bootloader is locked fastboot flash methods will not work 90 percent of the time...if you flashed liquid 3.0 that's more than likely your problem with mms as that is a beta...but on more recent 4.3 builds mms is fixed...and no its not the same kernel...just similar source code...liquid 2.9 does not have this mms issue...any random reboots on 4.2 are caused by min frequency not set right at 384 mhz and using amon ra to flash or not doing a proper clean flash....I do recommend s-off as it will make life much easier for you for modding things or flashing custom zips and for future flashing back to full stock if needed as its not possible while s-on...you can always pm me for help as I've yet to run into an error I can't fix unless posted in op caused by source

There is a few good reasons to S-Off.
1.No need to fastboot flash kernels
2.can RUU if needed
3.can flash recovery updates (cwm, twrp) as ph98img zips
4. Can keep bootloader ***locked***
5. No more ***tampered*** tag after you RUU
Scenario: you are out and about (or a computer isn't handy) somehow you are in an infinite bootloop. You nandroid restore. But it is something on boot partition. Only way to fix this while S-On is fastboot flashing a boot.img, but if you were S-Off, you would have restored the boot image from the nandroid.
Edit: added 5th reason

I finally went S-OFF to help another user get step by step to restore to fully locked and stock ruu. I decided to leave it S-OFF. It's so nice to be able to just load a rom and not have to do anything else (other than wiping). It makes changing/upgrading rom's a breeze.
I highly recommend it. It seems scary, but once you have done it once, you will not go back.
But be warned, never go back to S-ON on a non-HTC hboot... you will hard brick your device. That is the only real threat I've heard about... if you never go back to S-ON, then you have absolutely nothing to worry about. Just about any error can be fixed except for going s-on on a non-ruu hboot.
Thanks

[Q] EVO LTE - No OS - Constantly restarting - Help please

I'm sorry in advanced because I've seen a lot of threads similar to this one but none have solved my issue.
The story on how this happened:
I have an EVO LTE. I flashed it from Sprint to Verizon's prepaid unlimited everything plan and it worked awesomely. Unlocked bootloader. Installed TWRP. Rooted my phone. Everything was working perfect for a month. Sure enough, Verizon reps messed up my account somehow and I ended up having to get another phone number and another flip phone, therefore making me flash it again. No problem. Flashed it again but calling and SMS didnt work so I thought " Hey, I might just have to factory restore, wipe everything, and try again." Here's where I messed up...bad.
I went into TWRP and somehow managed to wipe EVERYTHING off my phone except for TWRP (including OS and important files that help it be a phone). I am assuming I do not have an OS anymore on this phone.
Whenever I thought i successfully flashed a ROM over and restarted my phone, it goes to the white HTC logo, then the dev disclaimer comes up, sits there for a while, the repeats infinitely.
I've lurked around and viewed MANY threads and websites trying to fix my problem but no luck at all. I've attempted many flashed and installs on trying to get an OS loaded on my phone but can't do it right (apparently).
Here's everything now:
- I can load into TWPR just fine (holding power + Vol down > hit recovery > loads into TWRP). Mount things. Move files. No problem there.
- I can fastboot things and control my phone without any problems. (although i haven't memorized any codes or commands) (fastboot flash blah blah).
Also here's what versions of stuff is on my phone (bootloader I think)(sorry I can take a screen shot)

My question is can anyone assist me in installing EVERYTHING fresh to my phone through fastboot ot TWRP? Sounds easy right?
Well I would be forever in your debt if you can work some magic and help me out.
If you can link to updated (and correct versions for what my phone is on) files I need to download, that would be really appreciated. Basically, if i can get the compatible files for my phonw and someohe can tell my where to place them and how to install them, I would be one happy camper.
Thank you and I'm sorry if there is a thread for my exact problem somewhere out there already.
**** EDIT ****
I just downloaded Viper4G 3.1.5 Full ROM and flashed it over vie mounting in TWRP. Went to install, chose it and in installed successfully without any hiccups. It said that the kernal will be installed upon restart and when it restarted my phone, it continued to say "for development purposes only" and continually restarted a few times before i went back into TWRP. Did I do something wrong?
Find the ruu you where originally on, ruu the device. Repeat your steps for vzw. After all thats done nandbackup, then mount your device to your pc copy the contents of sd. Place it somewhere safe, so if it happens again you can just nand restore. That is if I'm understanding you correctly. More details would help.

Edit: sounds like you wiped system. So what you're gonna wanna do to flash a Rom is wipe system then wipe data/factory reset. Install a Rom zip, I'd go with stock rooted for now. Relax its not like you bricked.

from there i did a factory reset and it put me back to the white screen. (i have no sd card installed during the entire process)
i went to recovery and tried to flash the kernel again, it says flash it twice. same thing. i tried to flash a recovery, i tried both cwm 5.5.04 (GB) and WCXs cwm (gb/ics), same. ive tried installing a rom from my sd card and the fastboot did its thing and kept saying image not found.
i could really use some help here and i'll actually front what cash i can, or if you live in the DFW area i'll supply you with beer. any help that i recieve needs to be in simple specific terms and step by step instructions. i'm an automotive mechanic, not a computer guru. many thanks
I used to be an automotive mechanic.... Anyway when you flash an incompatible kernel this happens, best bet from there is to flash a know working kernel (or the backup you made just prior)
But I'm assuming you didnt make a backup and now have possible wiped more than you expected. Without knowing more about your phones current condition I would just wipe all in recovery and then flash a known working ROM (and anything else you need like gapps) then reboot.
You still have radio security flags turned on so I doubt you did much damage, just borked the system or boot partition is my guess
Good luck!

[Q] HTC One stuck in boot animation

Hi all:
I think I´ve definitely broken my brand new HTC One. The problem is that the phone is stuck in the initial animation (white screen with the HTC One logo. This screen) and I cannot do anything. I tell you the story.
I rooted the phone with this tutorial http://htconeroot.com/htc-one-root/how-to-root-htc-one-windowsmaclinux/
At first, everything seems to go fine, but the SuperUser app started to fail and ask for updates. I installed RomManager and I changed to CWM Recovery instead of the TWRP recovery installed while rooting. I unistalled Super SU and installed the Google Play version and everything was fine again.
Today I tried this mod http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2251788 to remove the 3 dot menu and I flashed the file bkbtnmenu.zip with CWM. I flashed the file, I did a wipe cache and a wipe dalvik and when I tried to reboot, the HTC got stuck in the animation screen.
I cannot switch it off, neither entering in recovery or anything else. When I try to restart or enter in recovery it simply restarts to the same screen and cannot do anything but waiting for the device to empty the battery.
I´ve made something terribly wrong. Hope some of you guys can help me. Every little help will be appreciated. Absolutely desperated
For future reference I'd say not to use anything from zedomax because someone always has issues with his tutorials. Anyway, you said you're not able to boot into hboot?

Some progress
First of all, thanks for the advice.
After reading your reply I´ve tried again and now I´m able to start the phone in recovery mode. Sorry but cannot post images. I already can go into the HBoot screen.
But don´t know how to continue.
If you're able to boot into recovery try to factory reset, you'll lose all your apps and settings but that should work
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4 Beta
No progress
I´ve done the factory reset, but after rebooting I´m still stuck in the boot animation screen.
Absolutely no idea of what I can do.
Try downloading an ruu if you just want full stock, otherwise try pushing a rom to the sd card and flashing it that should get you back up and running

I´m a bit newbie in this kind of things. Before the crash, I had Android 4.2.2 and even though I´m Spanish, I live in Singapore and I´ve bought my HTC here.
I´ve noticed that there are a lot of RUU and no idea of which to choose. I don´t have any problem in pushing a new rom, but how can I push it to the SD card? Please can you send me a link or two? I´ve found a lot of info in the forum but I´m a bit overwhelmed because most of the posts are for people with more experience than me and don´t know which one I have to choose.

I started the RUU file and it showed me that currently I have a 2.x.x.x. ROM and I´ll change to a 1.x.x.x. ROM. I clicked next and the software got stuck sending. After a few minutes, I received this message

Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again.
Maybe It´s something related to the drivers?

[SOLVED] HTC Desire 610 AT&T accidentally removed OS [SOLVED]

Update: I have the stock.img and need the stock zip file... please help that is all i need. i tried the stock RUU but for some reason my computer will not run the application and i don't know any other way to fix my phone other than adding the stock zip file to my phones sd card and installing it thru recovery.
Update: I fix my computer problem with the RUU not starting, it starts now and runs all the way thru then says it's the wrong one. I got the at&t ruu off the htc site.
UPDATE: I got my phone off of ebay, heres what the item was listed under.
SR HTC Desire 610 8GB Black AT&T Unlocked Any GSM 4G LTE Android Smartphone
Model: Desire 610
Bundled Items: 4G LTE May not be compatible with T-Mobile, Doesn't work with Verizon or Sprint

SO... it's a AT&T Unlocked GSM phone? so what RUU do i need to use?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't know exactly what all you need but here goes nothing.
I unlocked and rooted my phone a few nights ago using, http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-610/general/info-htcdev-unlock-root-t2844323
also had TWRP recovery installed.
Yesterday i was playing around in recovery mode trying to clean up my phone and restore it to factory settings. I accidentally deleted my system.. and when i try go to reboot it says No OS Installed! Are you sure you wish to reboot?
So i rebooted to fastboot and clicked power down.. and when i try to reboot it, it gets stuck on the HTC start up screen untill my phone dies or i go thru all the trouble to take the battery out.
So i deleted the OS System, and can't boot my phone up. I can get to recovery and fastboot just fine tho.
Bigger problem is, before this happened i had to Factory Restore my computer, so i no longer have any of the files i had to download to unlock and root my phone.
Anyone know what i need to do to be able to use my phone again? I'd really rather not have to go back stock ROM but if it's the only choice i will.
Please help me fix this, I can't go without my phone and I really can't afford a new one right now.
Thank you...

Try to reboot recovery
Install CM11 or stock ATT ROM from xda.
Move it to device.
Flash in recovery!
If your computer won't detect the 610, put it on USB OTG and connect to phone and flash.
Good luck

Well, looking at your 1st post(see exert pasted in above) you have somehow re-locked your bootloader. So the first thing you will have to do is go back through your emails and find the unlock_code.bin file that htcdev emailed you when you first unlocked it and use wndroid or fastboot to to unlock your bootloader again with that code. Recovery won't let you flash back anything while the bootloader is locked.

Relocked, not relived
Every tutorial i have tried has said to relock bootloader before using the ruu. oh btw i have fixed the ruu not opening problem but it ran all the way thru then said it was the wrong one. I don't understand, my desire is at&t and i got the at&t ruu from the htc page.
Do i need to go s-off?

Since you somehow relocked bootloader, unlock it using windroid.
Then transfer cm11 or stock ATT ROM and flash in recovery

Just use windroid. First unzip the file I attached. Connect phone to PC. Start windroid. At top of windroid select COMMANDS. FLASH. FLASH RECOVERY. It will open an explorer window, just navigate to where you unzipped the file I sent you and select it. It will then flash the recovery. Once finished reboot to recovery.
Good day sorry to bother you again i tried to do that but now i cant enter recovery mode twrp, i click there but only goes to htc logo for a sec then goes back to fast boot
