how did you fix it? Im stuck too. All I did was update Rom manager and CW. I then tried to restore a backup. Still stuck at HTC white screen. Pulled a battery and nothing

i'm guessing your rooted...?? Well from hboot select recovery and it should bring u to CWM recovery and from there just mount your sd card and load a new rom on and wipe EVERYTHING and flash it...you should be good

Thats really stupid. Had I known, I wouldnt have bothered updating. I dont see any difference except the fact I cant restore my old back ups.

Yep, same happened here. I was able to reload the fresh rom (in my case, SHIFTS3NS3 1.3), and I downgraded the CW to the prior version. But still cannot restore the latest, probably because it was created with latest release of CW. Going to try another previous restore that I know was created with the previous CW. If the latest CW is the problem, it should be removed!

I have deleted my custom and stock ROM and am stuck at boot screen loop

So.. The other day I rooted my htc sensation perfectly, and gained super user access, S-off and all that stuff to root.
So I flashed a MIUI rom onto the phone which worked perfectly.
Today I tried to flash the Virtuos Quattro ROM onto my phone and it didn't work. So I cleared the cache, user data, and all that, but every time I tried to flash the rom it came up with an error.
(At this point when I turned the phone on , it when in a boot loop..l unless I went into recovery mode.) so I tried to restore the MiUI ROM and it wouldn't work anymore..
So I formatted the system and still no luck. Formatted the SD card and no luck.
However, after doing all of that, I lost the MIUi ROM, have no way of getting to a home screen, and I don't know how to get back either to my stock rom or to the MIUI rom.
It still says I'm S-off.. But I have no clue how to get back to either my stock rom ( because I have no idea where to find it) which is what I want to do again
Have I deleted the stock rom?
Is there a way to get back to the stock rom in this case? Or what should I do?!?
In desperate need of help guys!!
Cheers

Download a Rom to your computer the go to recovery and mount sdcard plug the phone to your computer and put the Rom to your phone from your computer if this doesn't work use another phone and put your sdcard in that phone and put the Rom from your computer to your sdcard

If you've formatted the sd card, without making a backup of the stock nandroid on the computer, you've lost that.
Search here for stock sensation ROMs for your carrier (pretty much what you had before you started flashing ROMs) and, if you do want to go back to stock, follow the instructions to flash it. Then follow step 5 here *CAREFULLY* to get s-on and stuff again (if you're wanting to go that far).
I'd personally recommend trying to flash ARHD or something, a ROM that has been flashed by a lot of people - trouble free, again by following the instructions carefully. It could maybe just be something as simple as you got a bad download (always check md5 # to be on the safe side - and to ensure that stuff like this doesn't happen.)
Once you've rooted there's not really much cause for going back to stock, as most custom ROMs are edited to perfection for speed and efficiency.

Well when you do a factory reset and anything else you'll lose all of your information but it can be very easy to recover. If you added a Google account to your phone then your contacts will be backed up and your apps redownloaded and anything on your SD card will stay there. All of the stuff from the Google account will come back after you have added the SAME Google account to the phone during setup which is done when you flash a new rom.

Well I'm not too sure, especially with your phone but this is what should happen, reboot into recovery, do some wipes then flash the roms and reboot, if it comes up with a problem DURING the flashing then redownload the rom. If the case is that your phone doesn't boot fully then the problem is that you are using the wrong firmware because you are using a Rom with a different android version. If this didn't solve it then try asking in the sgs2 forums because I don't know too much about your phone

Well ill give you all of my thougts. Redownload the Tom and do a wipe then install it, if it doesn't work ty a different version if cyanogenmod
Sent from my Sensation using XDA

First, boot into recovery. Not sure how it works on the sgs2 because I'm running an Incredible 2, but it should be by holding the power and volume buttons if you can't get there from ROM manager.
Second, wipe data/factory reset.
Third, wipe cache partition.
Fourth, advanced/wipe dalvik cache.
Fifth, mounts and storage/format system.
Sixth, install zip from sd card.
Seventh, install gapps if it isn't in the ROM.
Eighth, reboot.

[SOLVED]HELP : no operating system on my htc one s

hello guys , last night i tried rooting my phone and then installing a custom rom. i unlocked the bootloader , flashed custom recovery , and then Perm-rooted it. everything went well. then i tried to install custom rom and the dialog windows on my computer said ``its finished , enjoy trickdroid.``
so i rebooted the device and after that problems started. i couldnt get past htc welcome screen , the one with the normal eroor message with red letters (this system is for development purposes only..). i tried a few times again , but still nothing. so i went on internet to see how to recover from this , and i did everything by the book. i wiped delvik cache , normal cache and factory reset. even after that problem persisted. so i wiped system (ROM) and now i am left without system on my phone. i still cant get past that welcome screen with error message , and only thing i can do is boot into bootloader and recovery. PLS HELP , what do i need to do. this was my first rooting and i bricked it... THX

Go in recovery. Wipe cache and dalvic. Wipe system. Wipe factory reset. Install zip from sd card ( rom)
Reboot into bootloader. Flash the boot.img from the rom with fastboot. And then reboot and enjoy.
Maybe you can check of you have s3 or s4 processor before you flash anything. Greetz

Hold power button & vol down until recovery opens, then in recovery turn on USB storage then you can open sd on your desktop then copy the zip into it!

ty, i did as you said. i mounted sd card on my copmuter , but now i cant acces it , windows doesnt let me before i ``format it``. ``You need to format the disk drive before you can use it`` message apears. Is it okay for me to do that?

Can't help you with that. Never tried that..
Di you make backup of your original rom in recovery?
Or you can try to run a ruu from your computer and try everything again...

nah , i didnt backup it .. i forgot , thats why i have this problem. how do i run a ruu from my computer? i guess its some file that i need to find again compatible with my s3 version of the phone right?
anyone else knows if its safe for me to format the card via windows , since i cant use it if i dont do that?

You can check football's ville/ville c2 collection thread. You need ruu from c2
You can run it from Windows with your phone plugged in with usb cable.

no mate , i still havent copied my zip file to my sd card , because i need to format it before i can copy anything from my computer to phone. windows doesnt let me do anything before it formats it. the only question i need answered is : is it safe for me to format ``Removable Disk I:``(my phone) so i can then copy my zip file on my phone? ty

Either PM me or hit me up on gtalk - [email protected] and I will help you out and yes it is safe.

[Q] (SOLVED) Hardcore brick - Kudos to the genius who can solve this one

Hey,
i am a owner of a Rogers HTC one X (evita)
I did brick it, to a point where i'm stuck and don't know what to do.
My phone was already unlocked, with clockwork in, superuser and such, but i was rolling on stock RUU.
I decided to try over cyanogen nightly, wich i did in the past, and i felt like i want to give it a try again.
So i download it to my phone, open clockwork, install from SD ... everything worked like a charm.
Then... when i booted on the ROM, it shut down after the htc logo.
So at this moment i said.. well no worry i'll go see what's wrong. So i went back in clockwork.
I cleared the cache, dalvik and such... and i (yes forgive me for this one!) restore default settings .... and probably lost the ROM in the phone.
So... i decide to see if it's still in the phone .. so i went in "install from SD" ... then, cannot find \SD card.... shoosh.
I try to go in mount/unmount ... cannot find SD card ....
I still have access to bootload, to flash up some stuff. But whatever i do, i cannot access my internal memory in the phone ... Or transfert a rom (if there is a magic trick somewhere please tell me!)
SO i'm stuck with a one x with a boot that crash ... And a clockwork wich i can do nothing with.
Any clues?

Never mind, I misread, didn't see the part where you said recovery can't see sd card.

Plug it into a pc and format sd card the factory reset in bootloader corrupta the sd card. After getting sd card straight get rid of cwm and flash twrp 2.3.3.1, nothing higher... Then wipe cache from fastboot. Copy Rom to sd card and install again after wiping system, and caches from recovery. If you are on hboot 1.14 or higher with s-on you have to flash boot.img from fastboot.

That's cause cwm sucks on this phone lol. I did the same s**t with factory reset in bootloader long before the nocturnal fix came out. Took all day to figure it out. I found the windows format of sd card is easier than nocturnal fix and quicker

Well the thing his, i figure it out, was able to get access to my SD card with TWRP ... So i'm good now
But ...
Whatever ROM i put in, i dont have access to my touchscreen. I've red several guide on how to downgrade, and i totally understand how to do it.
So .. i need to get in debugging mode in a rom to start with (not superCID S-on) ... But how can i get to there if my touchscreen doesnt work ! ARGG !
So i'm trying to find a ROM somehow that uses the most recent touchscreen software .. So i can get in debugging mode and start it over.
All rom i've found i have no access to the touchscreen.
And getting back to stock is impossible (the RUU fail to install).
So what's next?
