Phone loops start-up logo after hard reset - myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development

Hi, I got a HTC Magic and have the Fatal1ty ROM installed, today I performed a hard reset on it (home + return + power -> clear storage). Everything seemed to go fine, but now when I start the phone it first shows the HTC Magic screen, then goes to Hero screen as always, but here comes the problem, it will just loop the screen with Hero logo over and over again, I thought this was part of the hard reset at first, but after 10 minutes it was still doing this. I can still enter fastboot /Hboot so I guess it isn't bricked.
Anyone got an idea what I can do to fix this?

Do a logcat, or run ddms and check what goes wrong at boot...

Do a nandroid backup and try reflashing the hero ROM. While you are at it you may want to try Jacheroski...I found it much faster on my 32A magic.

How can I flash a new ROM now? Let's say the Jacheroski ROM.
Would downloading it, changing it's name to Update.zip and then following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=537365 from step 7 work?
Appriciate the help guys

Htc touch diamond need help

Hi Lads,
My HTC touch diamond is doing strange, one day I woke up and suddenly it gave me a Red,Green,Blue,White screen. As I understood it's called bootlloader or something like that.
I tried reset+volumebutton after that it is starting normal and Ive got my phone back, but if I turn my phone back off its gaving me the terrible Red, Green, Blue, White screen back.
Ive tried to do a hard reset ( reset button + volume + round button) but then I have to press the volume button again to accept, but it isnt doing anything then.
Ive looked for some solutions but everything is chinese for me.
I just want my phone back to normal and I hope I dont have to loose all my files.
Can anyone help ?
Thanks anyway lads
Well, if possible, Backup all of your Data using either SPB Backup or Microsoft MyPhone, and reflash a new ROM.
This is what most users will tell you to do.
I think once a device encounters the Bootloader Infinite Loop issue, the only solution is to Flash a New ROM.
and how can I do that ? I am really a dummie at this point.
But it still works only if I put it back on I see the bootloader again.

..better post in the diamond thread. I am sure you will get help!
Maybe HardSLP?
Any update on your progress?
Curious as to whether or not you got the issue fixed.
[If you can get into the Bootloader, you can Re-Flash your device.. just keep it plugged into your computer when you restart your device.]

[Q] bricked htc inspire frozen on htc boot up and cant get to fastboot

hello.. i have looked for the answer to my question but i cant seem to find it, therefore i created this post.. sorry if i posted in the wrong section or if it is already out there.. i hope mr clown doesnt close my thread.
i rooted my phone doing it with the one click tool, and it worked perfectly fine.. the problem started when i tried to install a custom rom on it.. i installed rom manager and cwm fine.. but the problem is that i was following this instructions..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?p=11557769
which i read i had to get this rom...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=868720
the problem is that i didnt realize that i needed eng s off and i had s off wich therefore i wasnt able to see the cwm screen..
following the steps that told me to wipe the data with the wipedat.zip.. i did it through rom manager.. when the phone rebooted it went to a dark screen slowly so i took the battery out, and now is frozen in the htc logo... i have tried the up/down/power combo but the phone vibrates 3-4 times and then it goes to a black screen with the light on... but i dont get anything else.. so im really stock at either htc screen or black screen... i need help!!! i hope some one nows a good way for me to fix this.
have you tried...
adb restart fastboot
or adb restart recovery or whichever it is
someone more familiur with adb can explain alil more on this
Download the stock ruu exe and run that from your computer.
Sent from me using this thing.
Try running adb reboot bootloader but first off run adb kill-server then adb devices to see if it is picking up your phone. If that doesnt work download the stock ruu and run it, hopefully all goes well with either method.
Just FYI - this was taken care of over in the General Forum.
Haven't heard from him since, but he was able to get into hboot.

I had this problem. I just plugged it back into the PC turned off and cwr booted up for me. Hope that helps.

Hey man i had a problem like that i used ace hack kit v9...Just do everything over again and it will work..
This is in the wrong section. Questions should be posted in the general section.
Its not volume up/down/power. Its just volume down + power. What is sounds like you did was restart your phone while it was trying to flash the rom. You should be able to get to the hboot menu just by holding power and volume down to power up the phone and wait till hboot shows up.
This will be probably the best answer I got.
1. Turn your phone off
2. Take out the battery and insert it back it
3. Don't turn your phone on
4. Plug in your USB cord,connected to your computer
5. Your phone will Automatically Boot up
6. You will be in the ClockWork Recovery
7. There will be many options
8. Select "BACK UP AND RESTORE"
9. Restore EVERYTHING.
10. youre phone will start normally, but it will be really LAGGY
11. Then ROOT your phone again to make it normal.
What has happened to yours has happened to mine. This is the way I fixed mine.
If you have any problems or issues, PM ME

Chill out. Assuming you installed Clockwork, pull the battery, then put it back in. After that, just hold down Volume Down + Power. When you get to the bootloader screen, wait a few seconds, then go down to recovery. After that, flash whatever you were trying to flash.
i have similar situation as u.
that was my flyer, the reason is i don't have enough batter to wake it......
so .... make sure your power is enough....

How do you mean? I tryed everything in the bootloader
Best thing to do is start from the top. I would reflash everything in order again after wipeing it clean of what ever you tried to install.

[Q] Is my phone bricked now?

Is my HTC Desire S bricked? It is stucked at the white HTC boot screen.
In september I got the MIUI rom up and running, now when I am about to sell my phone, I decided to go back and restore it. So I changed the ROM and then it wouldn't update it just stucked at exclamation point-screen, so I searched forums and found that I had to flash it. So I did with this one: RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1_Radio_20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.11_M_release_177977_signed.exe
Which I got from a list in this forum, went fine and my phone booted allright, so I went in and tried to update it via settings, it installed and now it is stucked at this white HTC bootscreen.
Is it bricked, or what do I do now?
Thanks.

Well that sounds ****ed
Unfortunately that doesn't work neither ... Any ideas?
Btw, thanks for the help
Well, I found out that I can go in to the fastboot mode, from revolutionary.
Isn't it called fastboot? Where you can choose factory reset, recovery etc.
Factory reset and recovery doesn't work though, when I try to recover I see a screen with a HTC Desire (not S) and a exclamation mark on it, what now?

[Q] Won't go into recovery =[

hello this is my first post so bare with me please, i have looked through many websites i tried a lot of things, im supprised i havent bricked my phone yet.
I have an HTC Evo 3D rooted with Hboot 1.5 today i wanted to change to a different ROM so i downloaded everything, when i was ready to flash it i went to recovery and instead the phone rebooted, it use to reboot everytime i tryied to go to recovery or factory reset, i messed with it so much that whenever i hit recovery it opens bootloader or something, im not very familiar with this since im just starting =[ also when the phone is off i hold the volume down and power untill hboot apears it tells me for a brief moment that it couldnt find PG86IMA. I have downloaded it but i dont know how to mount it or get it in there, pleasee any help at all i would really appreciate it! ive tryed ROM manager, flashimage ui, recovery manager. thanks in advance!
