Phone is stuck on White HTC Screen - HTC Inspire 4G

I've been having this problem for the past 2 days and has came to the point where I'm running out of clues.
The phone has been previously rooted with Acekit and flashed with MIUI. But since the ROM gave me problems (the phone would randomly restart on me), I decided to flash another ROM instead.
I tried CoreDroid, flashed it, it wasn't functioning correctly, so I switched to the newest MIUI version availiable, everything worked fine but for some reason...there's no sound when I call someone.
I figured I should probably reroot the phone again. So I downloaded the Acekit, ran it through, when it got the point where the White HTC screen popped up, it just got stuck there for like an hour.
I popped the battery, tried booting by Vol Down + Power, I get teh white HTC screen stuck on me.
I tried installing the stock AT&T mod, it wouldn't go through.
I tried rerooting it again, it'd eventually stop, my guess is that I'm not able to go to USB debugging. So I'm stuck here.
I did my research over this forum and on google, but unforunately it hasn't helped me too much.
Is there anything I can do just to get a functioning mod running? I just want the stock ROM at this point. If someone can help me it'd be much appreciated.

If you did your research and read the effen manual for the hack kit you wouldn't have tried to root your phone again with the hack kit.
Unfortunately I have never done this nor would I because I know better. I know I have seen answers to your problem before on the forum. Maybe it was a sticky in the General forum. If that doesn't help then enter the IRC channel like you were told in the hack kit thread and get the help needed.

Use genes s on tool to return to stock and then root again with aahk.

I'm assuming this is what you're talking about. I'm downloading the PD98IMG.zip right now and will be working on it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1208507&highlight=gene

I followed the instructions:
Code:
Do a nandroid and/or Titanium backup! It never hurts!
While still in ClockWorkMod recovery, do a "Factory Reset/Wipe Data". This is necessary if you've got an ext4 cache or CM7 dalvik-cache on /cache. If not it will cause boot hang after installation. EXT4 cache will not work with this tool. If your recovery has ext4, be sure you format the cache to EXT3.
Download from the URL below, copy to the SD card and rename to "PD98IMG.zip"
Reboot to HBOOT: Shutdown completely (disconnect USB if connected and pull battery if necessary) then while holding down the VOL-DOWN key, press the POWER key for about half a second. The phone should boot into HBOOT, check the PD98IMG.zip for consistency, then prompt you to install. Select VOL-UP to install.
Once installed, HBOOT will prompt you to reboot by pressing the POWER button. Do this.
The operating system in this tool is a stripped down CM6 install with only the minimum features necessary to run an apk. The apk for the tool will run after the HTC splash screen, then prompt you through the process. Depending on the speed of your SD card, the last step, copying the RUU to the SD card, may take several minutes.
Once successfully completed, the phone will automatically reboot to HBOOT and begin the process of installing the RUU. The only thing you have to do at this point is acknowledge the prompt to install by pressing VOL-UP. (Note: the RUU install may skip a couple of images during the install but this is normal.)
Once the RUU is installed, press POWER to reboot and your phone should be in 100% factory out-of-box condition.
I went into HBoot,
It automatically went to
Code:
SD Checking...
Loading...[PD98DIAG.zip]
No image!
Loading...[PD98DIAG.nbh]
No image or wrong zipped image!
Loading...[PD98IMG.zip]
Wrong zipped image!
Loading...[PD98IMG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
And then just went back without prompting me anything.
I basically am not able to reach to step 5

Make sure its on the root of your sd card, meaning not in a folder. Also make sure you didn't name it pd98img.zip.zip. if naming in windows the file extension could be hidden leaving you with the double zip. Basically its supposed to be a zipped file named pd98img.

turns out the downloaded file was corrupted. I downloaded again and it worked. Thanks guys!

YOUR G1 IS *NOT* BRICKED @ the G1 screen! I have a cure!

OKAY. SO I HAVE TO SAY;
After flashing my ROM so many times and having my G1 get "stuck" the the boot up G1 screen... you could say this would make someone frustrated. Even make you think your phone is "bricked"? Right? Wrong! It's not.
I have two ways to get OFF this screen & have your phone running again.
THIS IS FOR ROOT USERS WHO HAVE FLASHED AND ARE STUCK AFTER AN UPGRADE.
1. Take your SD card out and put it into an SD Adapter/USB into your computer and open the drive and drag your update file for whatever ROM you want onto the drive .
2. Eject the drive; and don't forget to Safely remove it.
3. Put the SD card back in your G1 phone, and reboot the phone with Call+MENU+Power button and then immediately hold the HOME and BACK button to go into recovery mode.
4. Once in recovery, wipe data and then add the update.zip file
Let it do its thing and when its done, hold Home + Back to reboot.
IF your T-mobile G1 boots back up, Congrats! Your new ROM is working now.
If you are still getting stuck at the T-mobile G1 start up screen, take your SD card back out, re-do the steps I provided, but START ALL OVER FROM SCRATCH! This means, Put your Original RC33 (or RC29) DREAMIG.nbh file on the sd card, wipe, flash the recovery image (use the telnetd and terminal emulator steps - you can find them on youtube here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgJ2VtSqtJY ) and then proceed to let your phone boot up. Once everything is loaded up and you sign back in and everything syncs back up, You will be downgraded now, so you will have to flash the newest Radio and SPL onto your phone (as if you just freshly rooted your phone, because you did!) and then after you have done that; then you can wipe & flash/upgrade your ROM to whichever you prefer and also don't forget the fat32, ext2/ext3, linux-swap partition of your sdcard. This guy gives a great tutorial on how to do that! http://www.youtube.com/user/EmoGamer#play/uploads/4/0ve8pUk9dC4
ENJOY FELLOW ANDROIDIANS!
I hope I could help some of you.
If your phone is STILL stuck on the G1 loading screen, you have done something wrong. Try again. IF all else fails, Your phone is majorly Bricked and I don't know any other way to help you. These are the only two ways I know of - they have worked for me over & over; because I'm always testing out everybodys newest ROM.
This isn't any new information. There's an entire thread dedicated to bricked G1s and distinguishing whether or not they're actually bricked.

I second that.
If you can get into recovery... phone is not bricked. "BRICK" happens when you can't get into recovery NOR fastboot in the SPL.
WRONG.
If either of those steps worked that means your phone wasn't even bricked in the first place.
Garbage thread.
This is hilarious....

Need help! Stuck at booting screen with HTC logo

I need help. I am a beginner. I recently rooted my phone and installed Android Revolution 4G, S-off, and everything, then flashed the power notification widget for my phone thru the recovery menu from ROM manager by selecting the zip file. It installed successfully, but when I rebooted the phone, my phone is stuck at the white screen with the HTC logo. Please help. I am able to get into recovery menu after pressing vol down button and power button at the same time when the phone is off. What do I do now? Thanks.
stuck at boot logo
Hey i just had this problem today, and i found a solution.
first press vol down and power button to get into recovery. at first you may not be able to scroll down, wait a couple secs. then scroll down to recovery then push the power button to select. the screen will flash the boot screen then go into clock work mod. now scroll to apply zip from sd card and bush power. scroll to restore then push power. now select choose zip from sd card. then navigate to the rom from clockworkmod -> download/ ->coredroidroms.com/ ->roms/ ->desire_HD/ -> release under this, i had 2 choices, the only difference between them was that 1 said update patch. you want to select the one that ends in .zip NOT THE UPDATE! follow through the process and your phone will be bootable now.
sorry forgot to mention that your case may vary a little depending on what rom you have and the location of it on the sd card. but follow the same general guide lines and you should be in good shape
This happen to me when restore a nanbackup with revolution on it, stuck in blank htc screen, so restore other nanbackup with CM7 and it work's so i don't really know what happen here.
Later change it to RCMiXHD successfully.
I am going to say this because it seems people forget. Before adding anything you flash through the recovery menu, BACKUP!!! I put in a power notifications thing also and my phone just kept rebooting over and over again. But I had made a backup just before doing this, went to recovery and restored my backup. Was right back where I started. (By the way, when I was on my captivate, I didn't follow this rule myself and lived to regret it, had to spend a day and a half getting everything mostly back to where I had it, very sad)
That being said, if you have your ROM on the SD card in your phone you can just reinstall that and it should fix the messed up system image. Depending on the system you should be good with just that, some ROMs will wipe when they are installed though so you may have to reinitialize your applications. If your ROM image isn't on the SD you could download it to your computer and put it on the SD card then install from SD in the recovery options.
Good luck, there are folks online that may be able to help as well, there is an IRC channel mentioned in the root thread and people are there often.

Aria unrooting that really does work!!!

I have looked at the other threads dealing with unrooting the HTC Aria to a factory stock Android 2.1 ROM, for return to AT&T for exchange or replacement. They are full of posts from users who tried the methods, and had problems.
The below process worked for me on the first try. I was running ATTN1's 2.2 liberated ROM.
My display is severely cracked and I need to return the phone for a factory insurance replacement.
I have been 100% successful on unrooting the phone on the first try.
1. I located and downloaded the aria_shipped_rooted_signed.zip file.
I moved it to my SD card, and then installed it using clockwork mod.
(The phone went into a boot loop, but that is OK)
Next I powered down the phone by removing the battery, wait 30 seconds,
reinstall the battery.
2. Next I located and downloaded to my PC (running windows XP)
HTCAriaOriginalShipRom.zip which contains the HTCAriaOriginalShipRom.exe
program.
!!!This exe file will be run from the computer, not the phone!!! ​The file date on the EXE file contained in the zip is 06/27/2010 so it will not lock your phone to the new 2.2 version that is on the ATT website.
3. Boot into Fastboot Menu (hold trackpad on start) (You have to select Fastboot once the phone boots into the white screen with the 3 green androids on the bottom)
4. Insert USB
5. confirm that the phone shows "FASTBOOT USB"
6. Run downloaded HTCAriaOriginalShipRom.exe file ON YOUR COMPUTER
7. Process will take a few min at the end you should have a 100% restored and unrooted phone
My phone is now 100% factory original, has the HTC battery on the display when powered off and hooked to the USB charger, and I have no error messages. When I boot the phone normally, or boot the phone into recovery.
Phone boots up to a stock AT&T phone now, ready to be returned!
Moderators, you should delete the other posts claiming success where the users have all complained that it doesn't work! This one does!

This step is not necessary. You can run the RUU without first changing the ROM on the phone. The RUU will revert the ROM to stock as well.

problems after root.

I have spent the last couple of weeks reading up on rooting using adb. I successfully rooted my thunderbolt last night using two youtube videos by nat3mil. Everything went fairly smooth and I am now rooted but then I screwed myself.
I wanted to download a faster sense based rom using rom manager. I first tried lightningsense 1.8 or something like that. I rebooted and the phone wouldn't go past thre phone activation step of the phone setup. I thoughtt something was wrong with the rom, or I had to delete the old rom, so I backed up to the original rooted rom and then downloaded a cynogenmod7 rom and went back and deleted the first rom off of my card completely.
Cm7 booted fine, but I soon realized that I have no service. Data or net. I used googlr and the search function and found out that I also need to upgrade the radio seperately? From what I gather, I need to flash the mr2 radio only and not an entire ruu. Can someone confirm this for me and possibly point me in the direction of a downloadable file containing only the radio that I need? I don't have access to an adb equiped computer for a few days and the only two roms on me sd card require a radio that I don't have on my card.
Thanks for the help. I'm new to adb & obviously over looked a step or command.
without installing adb
Our computer is still in storage from moving. But I do have access to a computer close by. Just don't need to install adb unless absolutely nessesary. Once I find a downloadable file, I hook phone to conputer as disk drive, then move file to the root of my sd card and just reboot the phone using volume up+power?
I'm assuming that it's not possible to download the file directly to my wife's phone then put her sd card in my phone and flash it without a computer due to the fact that a computer is required in order to move the file to the ROOT of the phone?
The file needs to be on the root of the sdcard not the phone. You could do what you said with your wifes phone and swap the sdcard or you could use WiFi on you Thunderbolt to d/l. Radio links will be in the thunderbolt dev section or loonatiks sticky in q&a has a link to a page with a good list. Sounds like you need a MR2 or newer radio.
Sent from my HTC Thunderbolt
So the file doesn't need to be renamed? So leave the mr2 in the file name & flash from bootloader/recovery, search for file on SD card, probably in dcim or download folders and select file that says mr2 by pressing power button?
Just tried:
Installing update.....
Installation aborted.
Any suggestions?
It needs to be renamed to PG05IMG.zip
Oh yeah and you do NOT flash that from recovery. Bootloader and recovery are not the same thing. Thats why you got installation aborted. Power down the phone completely. Pull battery and then put it back in. Hold volume down plus power untill the white bootloader screen appears. You may have to scroll to bootloader with the volume keys and select by tapping the power button. Once there it will automatically find the PG05IMG.zip and ask you to press volume up to update. When its done it will say press power to reboot. Then when the phone boots you should be good.

i had been powering on while holding volume- and it was taking me to the white screen. i tried pressing the power button there and it quickly flashed to another screen and tried to flash a pg file and didn't work. the proccess happens so quickly that i can barely catch that it is a pgo5 file that doesn't work before it takes me back to the first white screen.
since that didn't work, i guess i misinpreted some misinformation from another site that said to flash radios from the CWMRecovery menue, so form the white screen I scroll down to recovery and hit power and it brings me to CWMRecovery v5.0.1.0. tried flashing from there several files, and all say unseccessful or aborted. I must have F*ed something up really good now, because in my fiddling around in CWMRv5, now no matter which of the restored roms i tried to flash (shows flashed successfully), when i reboot, they all take me back to the HTC screen and stays there. doesn't even attempt to load phone's menue or get to language/activation steps.
i thought that wipe data/factory reset from the CWMRv5 menue would take me back to the original rooted ROM, or at worste case, take me all the way back to the unrooted factory phone. Tried that, same thing, HTC menue for over 15 min straight and still nothing.
When turning on by holding power & volume- :...
When turning here is what i see on a white screen with three skateboarding droids on the bottom:

would selecting the factory reset do anything useful, or would it be the same as selecting factory reset from CWMRv5 (which appeared to flash fine, but no results)?
First of all to get restore to work go to this thread and download CWR version 4.x.x. Version 5 is borked right now and won't restore.
If you download the file to a windows pc that is set up to NOT show file extensions(.exe, .zip, .bat, etc) leave out the .zip but make sure it is PG05IMG.zip EXACTLY (0 = zero) Put that on the root of the sdcard *not in any folders* and boot to the bootloader per usual. When you get there *STOP* *WAIT* don't touch.anything. In the list that says recovery, fastboot, etc if bootloader is not on the list you are already there and it will find the file. Sometimes it loads into fastboot first so you have to select bootloader manually. If bootloader isn't on the list you are already there. In the bootloader it should find the file and ask you to press vol up to update. This will get you a working Clockwork Recovery so you can restore backups.
This same process applies for radios.
If it is not finding the file you have it named wrong somehow. Most common mistakes are PG05IMG.zip.zip (because of hidden file extensions in Windows) or PG05IMG .zip (note the space before the .zip.) It IS case sensitive.
Edit: I forgot to mention if it does that check so quick you barley see it **it is not finding the file** There is a problem somewhere in the name or it is not on the *root* of the sdcard.

[Q] Atrix 2 won't boot past "M" Motorola logo

Hey guys,
Forgive me for being frantic and (probably) not taking the steps needed to research this issue, or not taking the time to do so, but I'm sure you can all presumably imagine -if you've not been in this situation before- that it SUCKS not having a phone in this day in age...
My problem: Atrix 2 (Rooted + CWM Recovery) now won't boot passed the "M" Motorola logo upon start up. It won't even allow me to access the factory Android Recovery by holding down Volume Up, Volume Down, and Power. I think I inadvertently bricked the phone? (Hope not!)
Further, the "M" Motorola logo is skewed in appearance, like its not even loading correctly. I'm not sure what to do. This is my first time rooting and getting experienced with custom ROMS.
Anyone able to help this helpless sap?
Thanks is advance to your replies...
Step 1 is where you tell what you did to get into the state you are in. You wouldn't believe how far it goes toward fixing something if you know how it got broken.

If you have CWM recovery on boot can't you just do a battery pull? You do NOT want to let that thing bootloop forever until the battery dies.
The End.

Agreed pull the battery. If you run out of juice you'll be in some serious trouble.
Did you try to flash the fkz? Unless you have CWM on Boot it's the only way you can get your phone working.
Okay, sorry for not giving a full rundown on what stupidity on my part cause all of this. Let me start by saying that (sadly) I am a great big n00b when it comes to Linux, and I thought that despite my research online I would sort of explore the CWM Recovery 'Advanced' sections.
I downloaded ROM Toolbox from the Play Store, and installed a custom boot animation, and replaced -or thought I was- the startup "M" logo with something else. This is what concerned me: After re-booting, the "M" logo was all crazy looking, with a "stretched" "M" logo over the top of the "regular" logo.
So, I uninstalled the app, but the logo was still all messed up. So, I used Root Uninstaller to get rid of the ROM Toolbox files, still no resolve to the crazy boot logo.
So, I went into CWM Recovery Advanced, and wiped everything. The Dalvik, cache, System, Data, etc... didn't think that it would -what appears to have happened- wipe out the OS on the phone.
I tried pulling the battery, and re-booting, won't boot passed the skewed "M" logo still. Tried getting into Android Recovery, and it looks to go through the recovery goes through its thing, but never boots normally afterward.
Sorry for being such an idiot, I really shouldn't have messed with this while half asleep, and again I can't apologize enough for being such a stupid n00b.
I can attach an image of the boot logo if that helps, but I'm worried I am just S.O.L. at this point...
Also, not sure what an FKZ is. I tried to install a 2.3.6 apk file to my wife's SD card on her phone and booting from the file after putting the SD card into mine. Still nothing.
pull the battery, put it back in, and hold vol up and down while turning on. choose ap fastboot at the menu. go to the thread in my signature and under the mirrors there is also a download of the return to stock script. run it while in fastboot and plugged in with usb. DO NOT pull the chord until it is done. when it is you should be good.

Yeah wiping the system partition is a no no unless you flash another rom afterwards. Do like ikrasner says and you should be back to normal.

Thanks for all the help guys, I really hope that something positive comes about this... though, to go without mention, I certainly need more knowledge on WTH I am doing to my phone: understanding flashing ROMS, what dangers come with rooting, and a vast array of other "all things root" that I need to learn up on.
I will try to install from SD card the 2.3.5 zip tonight, but will it (the phone) look for the newest 2.3.6 OTA update and try to ask me to install? How does that work after rooting, will I re-brick my clearly bricked phone all over again?
As always, thanks for all your replies in advance -you guys really know what's going on here!

It should ask you to install 2.3.6. Just go into setting>about phone>check for updates. Or you could go and install one of the roms that are based on 2.3.6 such as Lithium Sonya or SCv5.
Okay gang, perhaps I'm just certifiably dumb, or I am simply just not doing this correctly. I downloaded the "Returntostock2.3.5.script" zip file and copied it to my wife's SD card to 'apply update from sdcard' option from the Android Recovery area by holding Vol Up, Vol Down, & Power buttons. What I got was this:
--Install /sdcard ...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
I tried to just plug the USB into the phone and run the 2.3.5. script from there. but again- I'm stuck in the crazy skewed "M" logo startup screen with nothing following. That's all the phone will do at this point, other than my getting into Android Recovery.
I'm not sure how or what fastboot is, or how it works. If the phone is plugged into the USB, it will only boot the stupid screwed up "M" logo screen. Noting else.

do not flash this. unzip it on your computer, choose to boot into fast boot in the same place you chose recovery, then run the .bat file that was in the zip.
Sent from my MB865 using XDA
What that file does is reflash your system.img, basically restoring your phone to factory default. And just as a sidenote you cannot flash things with the standard Android Recovery. You need CWM.
did you try apboot mode and ise fastboot to flash system.img ?
Sent from my ME865 using xda premium
Still not working... not sure how to flash from fastboot. I don't have any options to run a file from there, or at least not sure ow to go about that.
Fastboot sample, hope will help you.

So, if I'm looking at this correctly, I need to open command prompt from my computer, and type the commands in from there?
I don't think my computer is recogzining the phone in any way, as I cannot get into the 'manage usb connections' options.
If I have the 2.3.5.script downloaded on my desktop, and l plug my phone in after launching AP Fastboot on the phone, will the computer know where to flash the file to?
I know, I'm a dolt... please bear with me, I really need to get this thing working again -I feel naked without my phone!

Before using the restore script you need to install the usb drivers for your mb865, you can get those from here: http://www.motorola.com/staticfiles/Support/Experiences/Global_Drivers/MotoHelper_2.1.40_Driver_5.5.0.exe
Next unzip the Return to Stock 2.3.5 Fastboot SCRIPT.zip to anywhere you like in your pc (example: C:\RestoreScript\ )
Next connect your phone with the usb cable to the pc and get into fastboot mode for this in your phone press volume down + volume up + power it should appear a screen with some options, use the volume down key of your phone to navigate through the menu until you see the Fastboot option, then enter by pressing the volume up key, this will show you some messages and the finally it should said usb connected.
Then open the folder where you extracted the Return to Stock 2.3.5 Fastboot SCRIPT files and search a .bat file call "Stock Restore" then run the file (double click on it) and it should open a command promt screen with some instructions if the phone is connected correctly and you installed the drivers correctly then in some point the screen will show you the id of your device and it will wait you to press the enter key to start the proccess, press key enter wait all the proccess until the program said to you its finished, after that it will reboot your phone and install the stock 2.3.5 when it boots up you should see the android logo and a progress bar filling up.
