[Solved]Boot Issue while trying to install EXT4Recovery - Please help

Hi,
I'm getting whitre HTC logo boot screen while booting the device.
I was trying to install 4EXTRecovery from ClockWorkMod recovery(By selecting install zip option)
Somebody please help. I'm not able to switch off the device.. Power+Volume UP+Volume Down not working

It's not Power+Volume UP+Volume Down not working
It's just Vol Down + Power... That's all

I'm not quite sure what your issue is here it's one of two
1) Can't get into recovery?
I'm assuming tht you're device is S-OFF, you're root and have CWM installed?
If yes then I'd suggest that you download 4EXT application from market see link in my signature next to Recovery...(there is a free version) which will install the 4EXT recovery for you.
I'd also ensure that you set Settings->Power->fastboot = OFF
As said above to get into bootloader it's normally just Volume DOwn + Power.
2) If you're device is in a boot loop....then...
what you did should have worked fine. Look in my signature for various links...
Download and Install the adb & fastboot onto your PC. Ensure that you have HTC drivers on you PC if not also download and install the link in my signature.
Then fire up a CMD on your PC, go to directory where adb is and issue the command adb reboot recovery ?
which should take you into recovery.
EDIT: I must add that you shouldn't post the same problem in multiple threads.....it's against the rules for a start!

pls whats the advantage of 4EXT over CWM for recovery?
thanks

I Have removed the battery and logged to boot screen by pressing Volume Down+Power Button.
But when I choose, recovery, it is going to white screen with HTC logo. How I can fix this guys??
adb is giving message as:

After you can reboot with Vol Down + Power

Thanks for ur support bro.. But Im not even able to load the OS.. I think, the mentioned setting will come after loading the OS..
Can u please check my previous post..

@lynxnoon
That's just your choice.
I've got this two systeme of recovery on my DS
With 4EXTRecovery, it's much easier to convert all your partitions on 4EXT.
At the end, all your partitions are on 4EXT => much faster and sure.
4EXTRecovery has some additional tools to wipe and format more accurate.
In addition, it's customizable (themes, fonts, colors)

If you have to take battery out again, take it out when phone is finished booting up and has started to shut down again (has a black screen) before it starts re-booting up again and leave battery out for 10 seconds... DO not quickly pull out and re-insert battery that is what is most dangerous.
Do the same again, enter HBOOT, Try factory reset? see what happens?
If that doesn't help, do same again but take phone into FASTBOOT, with phone plugged in via USB (see if it changes to FASTBOOT USB) and attempt to get reponse from fastboot commands through CMD like last time fastboot reboot-bootloader
next step is to put phone into FASTBOOT through HBOOT and flash RUU which you'll find from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1002506
you'll need the one neareset what would have come on your phone originally.

It's very rare that recovery can become corrupt and yet still partially function.
There us another link in my sig to install Cwm, but I'd personally recommend 4ext, again you'll find another link in my sig for that, there is a free version you instal the
application from market and that flashes the actual recovery
Half asleep now, so will check in later, good luck

That's great news! well done for continuing to try things and not just running crying to the service centre!
The restarts on customs can often be caused by not quite finished customs or simply incompatibility issues with apps etc.. 4EXT definitively best recovery as far as I'm concerned!
This is my first Android device so I'm also learning all the time that's why I have all the useful links in my sig as I know that I'd find them useful and so I'm sure other will and do!
Two tips - always take Nandoird backups before any significant changes and if you don't quite understand what you're doing then don't do it - simply spend more time reading until you do.
You can show your Thanks with the THANKS button!

Not able to find the thanks button on XDA mobile application.. Will give you the same after logging in from my laptop

[ROOT][CWM] Huawei Ascend Y201 Pro U8666

This is just a copy of the guide on myhuawei.net.
I did this because I had some trouble finding the guide since I always look for stuff like this here on XDA.
I also decided to do this because the guide was not in English and the translations by google were not so good.
Huawei Ascend Y201 Pro U8666​
Root + CWM Recovery​
I am not responsible for any damage you may do to your phone by following this guide.
The files you will need, download them and extract them to a folder on your desktop:
RootY201Pro.zip
UnlockBootloader.zip
Recovery.zip
(PS: Links removed, check post attachments)
- Now, get your phone and go to Settings > Developer Tools. Make sure USB debugging is enabled.
- Also disable Fastboot in Settings.
- Connect your phone to your computer via USB and let it install the drivers. Make sure they are installed correctly. Do not select "Turn on USB storage" on your phone.
Root + Unlock Bootloader:
1. Go to the folder on your desktop where you extracted the files.
2. Right click on unlockbootloader.exe and select 'Run as administrator'.
3. Click "ROOT Your Phone", the program will work and then close on it's own.
4. In your phone, go to the apps drawer and there should be a new app called Superuser.
5. Now go to your PC, open the same program, but this time click "Unlock BOOTLOADER".
6. Let it finish, the program will close on it's own, and then power off your phone.
7. Unplug the phone from the PC and we are done.
You have now successfully rooted and unlocked the bootloader of your device!
Installing CWM Recovery:
1. Turn off your phone if it isn't already.
2. Press and hold the following buttons simultaneously for ~10 seconds: volume down + home button + power button
3. Release the buttons and your phone should not boot, it should be 'stuck'. That's what we wanted.
4. Connect your phone to the PC via USB. It should install the drivers fine.
5. Open CMD and browse to the folder in your desktop.
6. Once you are in the folder type the following commands:
6.a) fastboot erase recovery, then press Enter. Let it work...
6.b) fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, press Enter and let it work again.
6.c) fastboot reboot, and press Enter...
7. Your device is now rebooting. You can unplug it from the PC.
You have now installed CWM Recovery.
Instructions on how to boot to CWM Recovery:
1. Turn off your phone.
2. Press at the same time for ~5 seconds: volume up + power button
3. You should be now on CWM Recovery.
Don't forget to say thanks or to donate!

[Q] (Q) Urgent: My Xoom stuck at booting screen

Hello everyone,
I just received an MZ604 Xoom from my friend, current OS is 4.0.3, and I want to upgrade it to 4.1. However, when I tried to root my device by Tiamat Kernel 1.3.1, after typing in cmd "fastboot flash boot boot.img", it's ok. Then I entered "fastboot reboot", the tablet just frozen at boot screen. Here is what I have tried so far and got no result:
- Try to restart it by holding power off and volume up
- Try to turn of completely by holding power off button (it didn't turn off)
- Factory reset from recovery mode
Can you guys help me on this, I'm a newbie to this stuff. Thank you very much!!!!!!!
In addition, my tablet was brought at Singapore, no there is no official upgrade to 4.1 ...

Can you get into fastboot mode? Volume down and power with your xoom off. If you can we can fastboot your xoom back to stock and start over from scratch. Is it a us version?

I enter "adb devices" in cmd and it gave me 16 digit number, so I guess I don't have to install adb again?

[Q] Stuck in TWRP Recovery Mode

Hi there!
I just had a go at flashing my new HTC One M8, and I'm stuck in recovery mode.
I followed these instructions:
androidcentral.us/2014/04/root-att-htc-one-m8/
But got the TWRP file from here because the original link was overloaded:
androidfiles.org/?developer=M8&folder=Recoveries
I essentially just ran:
Code:
fastboot-mac erase
cachefastboot-mac
flash boot recovery.img
fastboot-mac reboot
Then installed the SuperSU update zip. Now every time I try reboot into the Android system, it boots into recovery mode. If I boot into the bootloader, I get the option to boot using fastboot but that appears to fail (it returns me to the bootloader after a second). If I select hboot, it says "No image or wrong image!" after trying to load a .nbh file.
Any ideas?
BTW, I got the unlocked version from Amazon: amazon.com/HTC-One-M8-Unlocked-Warranty/dp/B00J3554KE/

you flashed recovery to kernel partition! The guide is wrong as i read.
To flash recovery:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
BUT you will also need to flash the kernel again as you just messed it up!

Ouch! Ok, that sucks that steps I was following were wrong. :/ But at least I feel less like an idiot.
So I found a boot.img from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51580259 and flashed that. Now I'm not returning to the recovery screen, but to the bootloader always and it gives the same message about wrong image.
Here are the commands I ran:
Code:
./fastboot-mac erase cache
./fastboot-mac flash boot boot.img
./fastboot-mac flash recovery Recovery.img
./fastboot-mac reboot

HBoot and so on. Also i need to know if its an "UNLOCKED" phone sold by a carrier. Or a carrier free phone. Because you will need fittig software for each model.

The info on top of the bootloader screen?

It's an unlocked (carrier free) phone sold by Amazon: amazon.com/HTC-One-M8-Unlocked-Warranty/dp/B00J3554KE/

Okay. Will get the right files.

Have you installed adb on your laptop? BTW are you using a apple mac?
Download this rom please --> LINK
The rom includes stock kerne. Just download it and we'll try to flash just the included kernel file as it should get your device back working.
Otherwise you'll have to flash full rom via twrp.
Please tell me when your download is ready. And this time do yourself a favor and DON'T act on your own as long as you don't know what you're doing...

Oh my, thanks so much that worked!! You're awesome! I honestly had a feeling I'd lost my phone.

Hi and thanks for the reply.
The tablet was on the latest Cromi-x and bootloader.
Did a full wipe and begun installing crombi
The tablet was stuck a long time on formatting so I had to regoot
After the reboot it was unable to moiunt E,
Tried to do another full wipe and now the tablet is just bootlooping on the TWRP splashscreen.
Any suggestion?

Formatting with TWRP 2.7 can take 90 minutes. You should not have interrupted it.
Can you get into fastboot?
Or alternatively you can try to get an adb connection when the tablet is looping.

Thanks for the answer so just connect the tablet, open cmd and do adb devices ?
Will try it in 30 min as I am not home
Tried the adb devices on a command windows in the platform-tools directory and nothing comes after hitting enter
Anything else to try?

What about fastboot? Boot with Volume Down and Power. Then try
'fastboot devices'

Nothing? something must come up. What does it say? Command not found? No devices found?

Hi
When I try the fastboot devices command it comes back to the invite with nothing written
When I try the adb devices nothing after list of devices attached
And the tablet keeps on bootlooping on the teamwin splash screen
And as already stated in device manager I find the mention transformer with yellow mark

Hi
Something new after I tried to update driver
Tried the fastboot command and it found something
It gives me s bunch of numbers and letters and recovery at the end
Is it good doctor?

Tried to install TWRP using fastboot -I 0x0B05 flsh recovery TWRP.blob and it sots there with the message <waiting for device> and tablet is still bootlooping:crying:

Are you in the boot loader when you issue that command?

By the way the bunch of numbers and letters are 0123456789ABCDEF and I have ASUS android ADB Interface under ASUS Android Devices in device manager
I don't know if this helps
Thanks

Yes that is normal. What happens when you flash twrp with fasboot. What does it report back?

Ok, I think we need to clear up some things:
If the tablet is bootlooping it cannot be in the bootloader and fastboot mode (you are in the bootloader menu when you see the 3 icons: RCK, Android, Wipe Data). But if you see the adb interface in Device Manager while it is looping you should have an adb connection and
Code:
adb devices
should return a similar but different string of numbers and letters.
Code:
adb reboot-bootloader
should boot you into the bootloader which is also fastboot mode.
In fastboot you should be able to flash TWRP with the command you posted, minus the typos naturally.
It has to be
Code:
fastboot devices
and it has to return the string of letters and numbers, then:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery twrp.blob
Try that and report back

Hi there, I have the exact same problem. I tried searching all over about the time for a full wipe and couldn't find anything. So after about an hour I hard powered down. Of course, when I started researching the recovery look, I found the info (roughly 90-120 minutes). Here is what I have done to try to rectify, perhaps you can help. I booted into the bootloader and ran the following commands:

When I reboot into the bootloader and click RCK I get the TEAMWIN logo (blue screen). About every 2-3 seconds the screen goes black and the TEAMWIN logo shows again.
Thoughts?

I decided to play around a little more to see what I could do. I pushed TWRP v2.6.3.2 to the device replacing v2.7. Finally I was able to get into TWRP. However, now I am stuck. TWRP asks me for a password that was never set (I don't have one). I hit cancel and the main menu and I show as having -1mb of internal storage.
If I try any commands, I am told that there aren't permissions to access the partitions. I feel like I am getting closer.
If I tell TWRP to FORMAT DATA in the WIPE menu, recovery restarts and asks me for my password again.
Thoughts?

It seems as if TWRP thinks your data partition is encrypted.
Boot into recovery, make sure you have an adb connection with
Code:
adb devices
if that returns a string of letters and numbers try
Code:
adb killall recovery
This should get you back to recovery and then try to format data again.
Good luck

Thanks for the advice. I actually reflashed to 5.7 and the password request is no longer there. That said, the device cannot mount anything inside. When I try ADB devices I am returned with nothing. That seems odd to me if fastboot commands work.
I searched around and a lot of people returned to full stock. I could also try the WIPE DATA option in the bootloader. But everything I have read is that is VERY bad. If I did that, even if I had to repush TWRP, would that be bad?

OK, I was able to get ADB going. The computer I was using didn't have the driver setup. That is fixed. The killall recovery command doesn't seem to work.

Alright, nothing I can do will fix this thing. The internal drive shows 0mb. I even tried installing CWM and I can't mount any partitions. I would like to return to full stock. I can't seem to find anything like an RUU or other tool to do this. Can someone please direct me to the best thread to do so?
After I am back stock I will unlock the bootloader again.

I will follow all the commands when I will be back from work. It's 3:30 here in Montreal thanks guys

To return to stock just download the Asus firmware, unzip it once and flash the resulting zip in recovery.
Your bootloader will stay unlocked. You just have to flash a custom recovery again, reboot and then flash the rom.

Hi all
Back from work but all the commands were uselee
In device manager I have ASUS android ADB interface after updating manually the 'transformer' that I had with the yellow matk
When trying adb devices it comes with 0123456789ABCDEF all the hexadecimal digits so seems to me that the machine does not recognize the tablet itself
When trying fastboot devices and hit enter it comes back to the >invite
When trying adb reboot-bootloader it just sits there with even no >invite
Forgot to mention that the word recovery comes after the 0123456789ABCDEF on the adb devices
Anything else to try? Thanks
