Im stuck on the android skateboarding screen which says Serial0, I take out the battery and put it back in and it keeps coming back to this screen when it powers up what do I do?
You need to put the DREAIMG file on you SD Card, like when you first rooted. And basically redo the process
Yup thats what I did, very painful tedious process. But whatever. Thanks.

My phone is looping (on and off) during the boot sequence. The boot screen (red green yellow) says code error then goes to the update screen. It starts to flash and then shuts off for a couple of minutes and does the same sequence again. I was running Nedidum v4 and activated the lock screen. Every since then I cant boot to this rom nor can I flash the stock sprint rom. Is my phone bricked? If i take it to sprint can they tell I was running a cooked rom? Note: I reported my touch pro lost through assurion to get this tp2. Can I do it again? Helpppppppppppppp!!!!!

Perhaps this is karma hitting you in the ass?
Go to the boot loader by shutting the phone off, holding down the vol down button then turning the phone back on.
Once in the boot loader try flashing to the stock rom.
To answer your question, yes, Sprint could tell. That said, they aren't likely to check.

it wont let me flash...it starts flashing and at about 10% phone shuts off...few minutes later it turns itself back on and goes to the boot--flash screen. i"ve tried 5 different roms including stock sprint. Only thing on card is the image file. You say sprint can't tell...I thought the boot screen says security unlocked or something like that?

He is saying that sprint could figure out you flashed your phone, but it is more likely that they won't even check, as most users probably won't flash their phone. At the very least you could go through insurance.

Yes, Sprint can tell if someone bothers to look. Chances are just low that someone will look.
Why are you flashing from a card? Ditch the card.
Flash the STOCK Sprint ROM over USB.

I have Verizon but I agree, there are too many variables when flashing via sd card. A faulty or cheap card, bad sectors on the card itself, your card reader copying the rom file incorrectly, a bad format on the card, the list goes on and on with what can go wrong flashing via sd card. I only flash via USB. Then again I use buildos so I never had a problem with roms. Thats why I like cookin my own rom. No headaches.
Relax heres what you do.
bro heres what you gotta do to fix your pfoblem, first format your sd card to fat32 then copy the nbh file onto the card, rename it to RHODIMG insert the sd card then enter the boot loader menu by first taking out the battery, and reinserting it. now with the phone off hold the volume down button while pressing the power button this forces the device into bootloader mode. your screen WILL read RHODIMG os. now press the power button again to install whatever rom you want but I would recommend using a stock rom or one that you know works, ie- from past experience.
trust me bro do this and all will be fine again,
HAPPY FLASHING
oh dont forget to press the soft reset button once the rom installation is done when the screen says installation successful,
once again HAPPY Flashing>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
the nbh file can be found next to the RUU application of whatever rom you choose when you open the rom with winrar this is the rom that will be flashed onto the phone.

Thanks all for your input...I've been flashing a year now, probably at least 500 times. Via sd card or activesync. I've tried everything..removing battery...formatting card...lada dada. cant connect via usb cause phone wont get past boot screen. I gave up and reported it missing o get a new one. It arrives today. I honestly think its the battery not holding a charge. Guess i find out for sure when the new tp2 arrives today. I'll post back here when i find out for sure.
Well got my new tp2 in this morning. I put the new battery in the old tp2 and it fired right up....to bad i had to waste my final insurance claim because of a battery.
I need help, I searched the forums and I did everything the forums told me to do but no go. . Im trying to put android on my htc hd2. First I installed the spl, that went through without a hitch I downloaded everything, from the customRUU.exe, to radio 2.15, to a rom android sense, i tried flashing both not at the sametime changing them to RUU_signed.nbh, and when i run the ruu.exe it give me an error. When i try the other way, by changing them to LEOIMG.nbh and ptting it on my storage car, and shutting my phone off then turning it back on by holdong the volume button down with the power button all i get is the tri color screen with either serial or usb, nothing more, no image screen to continue, so i have to take out my battery and put it back in to restart my phone to normal. Im lost the process is very easy to do, but im having problem and i cant find anything in the forums to fix them nothing seems to be working. please help and sorry to be such a noob to this.
Whoa there......... take a deep breath................
Inhale..............
Exhale...................
Ok.
You probably dont need to change your WM Rom to run android, just make sure your radio is higher than 2.08.xx.xx.xx etc...........
If you do wanna change it anyway then read this and watch the videos..........
Secondly, you dont flash android........
You put a folder on your SD card and run it like it was just a normal program.....
Read through this.........
Hope that helps..............

Depending on what version of Android you go it may have to make the data.img file (your Android 'hdd' if you will). This process can take up to 15min, during which your phone will just sit there on the hTc screen or console.
If your radio is >2.08.... and you have copied the Android folder to your SD card correctly, on your first boot it will take some time to make your data.img file, and set its self up.
Hope this help and you get it running!!!
black screen and green htc?..... sounds like it could be the evo build, if so that one took well over 20 mins for me on the first boot, then another 10-15 to launch sense.....
if you abort it halfway through the first boot you should start over again by deleting the file data.img if one was created......

heh too late.I left it on for about an hour, so I deleted it gonna start over thanx when I get home ill try out your advice out by taking out data.img.
I just want to let you guys know I got it baby finally got android working. Thank you all for your help and patience. Only one problem I see, it drains my battery.
posted in the wrong area before......I think I have killed my phone. I used the unrevoked method to root my phone and thats as far as the customizing went. I tried to remove it and now my phone will show the first evo screen and then go to a triange/exclamation screen! I have tried to load the stock Rom, applying a update.zip, using the pc39img flash. and nothing works. Can someone throw me a bone and help me out. Also I tried to recover from a backup, didnt work. and if recovery is selected from the HBOOT menu, it goes to the red triangle screen with a E: cant open/cache/recovery message.
Sorry if this is info overload just trying to give info so i avoid going down the wrong path.
EVO
Anyone. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
It sounds like you need to reflash your recovery. I'm pretty sure I got that screen when I reinstalled the stock RUU when I had to bring my phone in to Sprint when I tried to access recovery. I'd confirm it with someone else though, I'm a relatively new rooter.
I dont know what to do? I am a total noob when it comes to this and I just want a regular unrooted working EVO. Anyone with any steps I could go through to fix it?
clear your sd card make sure nothing is on it. make sure the sd card is formatted fat 32. now put the PC36IMG file on the sd card. Put the sd card back in the phone. with the phone powered off hold down on the phone the power button and volume down. then you should see a white screen with 4-5 different options in green letters. Now tap the volume down and you will see a bar on the right side of the phone its looking at your sd card and unzipping the file. it volume up to activate the update when it says to. and then let it do its thing and hit volume up to reboot. then you should be at a stock. no root.
Tried it with no result. I think I might need a catholic priest
So I was flashing different roms trying to find something new I liked When a changed setting caused me to get stuck before even the bootanimation at the HTC logo. No biggie right, happens to us all?. So I got into recovery and decide that ill go ahead and flash a new radio while im there. So I get the PD98IMG.ZIP put it on SD card. Reboot and flash it in the bootloader but when I reboot I can't get to my rom b/c I never reflashed it... Starting to see the problem? So everytime I rebooted the phone it would see PD98IMG.ZIP and want to apply update and if i declined it would turn phone off could't get to fastboot recovery or anything. After 10minutes of restarts and utter panic I realized how F***ing stupid I was for not pulling the SD card out from the start and being able to go straight into recovery.
I figured someone might get a chuckle out of this :/
Also got me wondering what would be the solution for this if you had a phone with a non-removable SDcard like the nexus S?
Hi, I'm a super newbie with a nice gs3 who have been toying around with rooting and roms for a bit.
recently, I noticed that my clockworkmod folder was taking up great amount of space in my phone memory (approx. 4 gigs)
so I decided to delete the folder and re-root my phone.
After re-rooting, all my phone now does is stay on for a bit, freeze, go to a black screen, and then turn back on.
It has repeated this cycle for infinite times now.
I've tried the to reboot into recovery mode by pressing vol.up+power+home, but all it does is stay on the samsung reboot logo.
I've also tried to soft un-brick the phone with odin, but the process always fails and it doesn't even seem to be able to start the process.
It seems to be able to recognize the device, but won't do anything else further and keeps telling me it has failed.
My decision to delete the clockworkmod folder was a super stupid decision.
Have I hard bricked my phone? Is it soft brick? Or have I just completely sabotaged my phone to a whole new degree?
I have no idea what has happened and desperate for a fix while crying in the corner of my room.
Please help!!!
Sounds like you just deleted a nandroid by deleting the clockwordmod folder. That shouldn't effect the phone functioning at all. What do you mean by "re-rooting?" Deleting that folder wouldn't effect root not sure why you tried to re-root. It sounds like something went wrong during the "re-root" process. What method did you use when trying to do that?
You soft brick your phone. I believe You didn't have to root an already rooted phone. In Odin you must click PDA(must be checked also) and choose your stock ROM. Your phone must be in download mode for you to even start the process. I will also like more details like root method and what version android your running.
