Noob A la VISTA!! Long story SHORT HTC Sensation bought downloaded an application went to erase it thru a File Manager and def deleted a wrong folder cause after that HTC started rebooting non stop. Rooted the phone installed CWR thru revolutionary CM7 thinking it was a software problem booted the phone and when on FASTBOOT the phone starts scanning the sdk and reads:
SD loading
-PG58diag.zip
-PG58diag.nbh
-PG58IMG.zip
-.nbh
-.tar
-.aec
-.enc
and No image for each one of it.... is this the cause of the HTC keeps rebooting btw the screen reads:
Revolution
Pyramid PVT ShipS-off RL
HBoot- 1.17.1111
Radio- 10.14.9035.01_m
eMMC boot
so what should I do to fix therebooting issue and the no image file etc?? thanks for any help in advance!!!!
Just a guess but you could try removing the microsd card from the phone and rebooting.
removed the card... rebooted... htc went into custom ROM... but now freezes up constantly and reboots... any way to fix this or should i start from the beginnign all over again from root??
easiest thing to do would be to reinstall the rom. most roms don't wipe user data, so go into fastboot, choose recovery and re-install the rom from the sd card and wipe cache and dalvik cache.
that's really all you can do at this point. even if it does erase your phone data (not sd card data like photos, videos, etc), its better than not having a working phone.
You could try using one of the Super Wipe ROMs, and then reinstall the custom ROM that you want to use. Also, make sure that you've applied one of the 3.12 firmware images if you're trying to use one of the ICS custom ROMS
super wipe roms? i waas trying the cyanogen mode 7 for htc sensation... have clockwork recovery btw if the phone freezes up on CWR what typ of issue could it be?...

btw when wiping the cache n formatting it reads E: format_volume make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblklp2
where can i find the firmware and rom's?

Hi All,
I have the Telstra HTC One XL, and have just recently attempted to install CM10 ROM - however have run into some problems that I would appreciate some advice to rectify. I had recently updated to Jelly Bean OTA.
I followed the guide on these forums - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859478
I Successfully unlocked bootloader by following the steps at HTCdev.com
I Successfully installed TWRP Custom Recovery
I Downloaded CM10 as per - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1790032. I transferred this as well as Google Apps onto my phones storage.
When attempting to install CM10, I created the Nandroid backup as recommended, and proceeded to wipe the mentioned items using TWRP (a guide I saw said to wipe everything). This is when my Nandroid back-up got wiped. TWRP gives you the option to wipe cache, delvik cache, factory reset, system, external storage, internal storage and format data. I did alll of these, and this was my mistake I believe? I proceeded to try and install CM10 and gapps from internal storage (I had to re load these back on after I wiped everything), and the install of CM10 displayed as successful.
Upon rebooting to system, the HTC screen comes up first and then goes to the CM10 animation. The phone then stays on this animation (rotating circle) for up to 10-15 minutes.
I have read thread after thread with people experiencing similar issues, and have tried rectifying my problem with various versions of roms and different guides out there. I can still boot into recovery (TWRP) mode via bootloader, and this means I can still mount my phone's storage onto my PC and have access to the storage directory. As I have deleted the Nandroid backup though, and because the ROM's won't install, I am stuck in no man's land.
There must surely be a way to have a ROM installed (even if its back to stock Telstra) from the position I am in, it would be greatly appreciated if someone may be able to point me in the right direction.
Thanks,
Robbie
maybe yall need to "fastboot flash boot boot.img" now

Why do people keep doing this??? Just because TWRP gives you all those options, doesn't mean you should use them.
Sometimes, people will say to do a "full wipe" when flashing a ROM. But that term is a bit misleading. Factory reset (from TWRP, never from hboot), wipe Dalvik and wipe cache is all that is technically required when flashing a new ROM. Some people like to wipe more "just in case". But if you aren't completely confidant in what you are doing, keep in simple and don't make it more complicated than it needs to be.
I don't know if wiping everything is the cause of your woes, but it certainly didn't help, and caused you to do some extra steps.
Flash boot.img via fastboot as previously suggested. Otherwise, just try to re-download and flash the files agin. Its seems that some people are having troubles booting after flashing CM10 (even after doing the correct wipes and flashing boot.img). Doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason, but just flashing again has fixed the problem for at least one person.
Thanks so much, such a simple fix! That has me booted up into CM10.
I have installed cm-10-20130107-NIGHTLY-evita and cm-10.0.0-evita , however with both of these versions, my touch screen is not working once it boots up. I can function with the volume up/down, and with the power buttons, but cannot get past my SIM card lock screen.
I noticed this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2083314 (no solution yet)...
Does anyone have a solution to this issue that seems a common one?
Alternatively, more than happy to get an alternative ROM on my phone in the interim...Can someone recommend me a ROM?
Again, I really appreciate the quick response to my problem, very happy my phone is in operation!
I have S-On. I'm running the latest AOKP build for my phone. All was well but I wanted to flash MIUI Rom. I flashed the boot.img and then tried to flash the rom. I use TWRP. I wiped the cache and dalvik as usual. I have been flashing roms for awhile now but not the MIUI one. When I did the phone rebooted in to fastboot mode. I tried to go to recovery but my recovery wasn't there. I was able to reboot my phone and the AOKP rom was in tact and appeared to be running even though I tried to flash the MIUI. I navigated to ES file explorer and is says the SD card isn't mounted. Everytime I try to boot to recovery my screen goes blank and I have to use the power button depressed to get it to restart. I then used fastboot flasher 2.4 to try to flash the TWRP recovery again. It appeared to take and I got the words fastboot USB. I thought for sure problem was solved. After my phone rebooted again the SD card wasn't mounted and still isn't. I am able to use the phone and AOKP seems to be running as intended but the SD card won't mount. After I flashed TWRP again it still doesn't boot into recovery. I get an EACCES permission failed when I try to move anything to the card or try to access it. I tried team Nocturnal's method for the SD Fix but it didn't work. Am I going to have to flash an RUU file? If so, where can I get that from? Any help????
It looks like your sd is corrupt. Did you factory reset in bootloader? You didn't mention doing a full wipe when you flashed the ROM, you only mentioned cache and dalvik cache, you should always wipe cache/dalvik cache/factory reset in recovery when flashing a ROM. Also, which MIUI did you flash?

I dont believe I did. Using trwp promts me and i follow that. Now i cant get to recovery or flash it. Any other options?

You might need to RUU but I'm not even sure if that's going to help with your sd problem. It's worth a try though. Run the RUU, flash TWRP, format your sd card. Make sure you have s-off before you run any RUU though or you'll brick.

I cant seem to get s off. Not sure i want to go that route. Any other way to get it working?

I have the Evo LTE rooted with twrp recovery. I tried to flash stock with goodies on my phone and in the middle of wiping cache dalvic ect. i accidentally wiped everything the system and my entire sd card with all of my back ups!!!!! I still have access to the bootloader and recovery but when i flash a rom it says NO OS INSTALLED. I tried installing the kernel separately through fast boot but to no avail. I'm s-on, radio 1.12

Turn s-on to s-off then you'll be able to flash rom once its rooted.
I have an htc inspire 4g rooted
they call it desire hd now
i have andriod version 4.0.4.0.4.0.4
baseband version 12.69c.60.29v 26.09.13.17. m
kernel version 2.6.35.14.aosp X -cottoncandy
my problem is i have tried several times to install several roms but no luck getting them to install it goes to the white htc screen then goes to a black screen and just sets there
I use team win as the rooting software i go into recovery then i go into wipe then after that is done i go to
swipe to factory reset. wipe daivik cache then the cache and i select wipe data before i do the factory reset within team win
i go to the install i use the rom off of my sd card then it says flash zip successfull then it starts to reboot and goes past white htc screen but doesnt do anything else so what im i doing wrong
also the phone does a restart on its on when im on the internet freezes then reboots
it is also on s-on
Since it's S-On you need to flash the ROM zip's boot.img from fastboot after each time you flash a ROM.
Hi,
First time posting Reasonably Nooby...-ish to hacking around with android but pretty techy in general and have done a lot of reading to try and fix this myself before posting.
Setup: HTC Desire S, ClockworkMod ver 5.8.1.5, HBOOT 2.00.0002 S-ON Unlocked bootloader
I have been running the stock firmware Gingerbread 2.3.5 from new (rooted by me) running CWM Recovery ver 5.8.1.5. I took out my SD card and put a blank one in (possibly stupidly, didn't re-format first), I took a nandroid backup of the phone. Rebooted then changed a few phone settings/apps and restored the backup to test it was okay, and it worked fine.
I then flashed a custom rom (Carbon_4.3.1_1114_saga.zip) and (gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip) from the same sd card, cleared all cache, dalvik, data etc which boots and works fine except that I have major issues with the sound in that it doesnt ring, no notification sounds and terrible in call audio, so have restored my backup through CWM.
As soon as I restored my backup and reboot, the phone goes into a boot loop where by it tries to boot showing the white HTC screen, the screen then goes black it then boots into ClockworkMod Restore. I tried clearing all data, cache, dalvik cache but it made no difference. I have tried a number of things including;
I then tried flashing boot.img to the phone from my nandroid backup in fastboot but again that made no difference.
I read through and followed the boot loop post on here but that made no differnce either.
I tried copying all data off sd card, formatting (through windows) and copying data back, no difference (more of a desperation attempt).
I can flash the custom ROM back to the phone and it boots again into that rom fine
One thing to note which may or may not have anything to do with this at all, is that when I originally wiped the dalvik cache before installing the custom ROM: from my memory, it did so with no errors. Now as soon as I select wipe Dalvik cache in CWM before even confirming to wipe, I get an error: "E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]", however when I do a "wipe data/factory reset" in CWM it shows it wipes /sd-ext. (this part is something I have not much knowledge on).
I cant help thinking theres something I've missed or can do that will get this to suddenly boot. Any help would be really appreciated as I've put a lot of hours/late nights into this so far and would now really like a fully working phone back.
As a side note; I believe from reading, putting a stock RUU update back on will solve the problem but after devoting a lot of hours trying to find one for my phone, I've not had much luck as nothing on HTCdev any more and cant find one for UK on Orange (now EE). And a lot of old links are now dead. As a side question does it have to be the firmware that my carrier sent out exactly for my country, I've read you can extract the rom.zip file from the RUU.exe so could I flash one that is world wide or a uk from another network provider or my network provider from another country, and then restore my backup to my own one, would that actually work/make any difference or just fail?
Thanks for any help
