[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.

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.

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.

[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!

What do you have installed clockwork mod or amonra?

im not sure.. the only time i remember seeing that word is when i was using Rom Manager

Is fastboot checked?
sent from my Sensation on CM7 Alpha#10

Take battery out. Put battery back in. Vol down+power. Highlight recovery push power
Sent from my Virtuous Quattro A3 ICS HTC Sensation

[Q] HTC Sensation doesn't turn on !!!

I have a HTC Sensation rooted and installed custom ROM last week with HTC Sensation Android Development[ROM] . For the last 2 days my phone restarted twice i think. Now it doesn't turn ON! I tryed to pull out the batery wait for 3 minutes and put it back bu nothing unitl now. I push the power button, i am trying to go on hBOOT pressing the power + volume down but nothing happens. Cane you please help me?! I tryied everyhting and don't know what do do. Thank you

charging from custom recovery tends not to work so if the battery is flat you may have to get an external charger.

the top solution is option one... but if the external charger is more expensive just buy a new battery... if possible borrow somebody's batt and test first...

''Recovery''
I fixed that thanks god!!! But now another problem starts.. i turn on the phone and restarts over and over after the green sign. I can't access recovery also. I tried to install a recovery putting this file: PG58IMG in to Memory card and then install but no success it does the same I can't access recovery at all. When i try to access it my phone restarts the same when i try to turn it on. If someone one know what to do please tell me...thank you

You should be able to access recovery if you pull the SDcard before booting

Thanks for the tip mate, i will try this and tell you how did it go..

it doesn't ! I tried but when i choose recovery it shows me the Android Green Screen, a black screen after and then phone shuts down !!! Thanks anyway

Where did you get that PG file from?
Matt

This may help or not, but you could always see if it's recognised by your PC when you try and boot into the Bootloader using Volume Down + Power. It seems odd that it would refuse to get into the Bootloader and go straight to the green HTC logo.
My rationale is that if it is successfully does get recognised by your PC, then you could attempt to use ADB to breathe life back into your device, if not at the very least get some information about what seems to be the problem.
It's a bit vague, I apologise. A little more research on my part is needed I guess. (new to these forums, just trying to help!)
Hope this helps.

try reflashing the recovery

I-ve tried alreadz to flash mz recovery but don't know what fits better because when i go to recovery adn try to install something my phone crashes already ! :*(

[Q] Sensation won't boot into HBOOT

Hi, noob question I guess...
I have looked everywhere for this answer throughout these forums and google and I'm really sorry if the answer is lurking somewhere here already.
I am in the middle of installing a custom ROM on my 2nd sensation 4g (w/ tmobile) and I'm stuck. There was a firmware issue and the phone was stuck in a boot loop after clearing caches and all that jazz so I had to superwipe and try a different firmware file. I've booted the phone into hboot about a bajillion times tonight but now it won't boot into hboot in order for me to install the new firmware. Hitting vol down+power. Just boots into regular HTC white screen, then continues bootloop again. Tried taking out the SD card, tried just letting it sit a while, I can't think of what else.
Nearly every other issue I've found about this has people suggesting to use a rom manager or quickboot to just start over at ruu files but I'm at the stage in the rom process where I can't boot normally or get into recovery to install zip files. And maybe I can use a rom manager at this point but I just don't know how?
Please help? :\

Double check if you unticked fastboot mode.

I have no way of checking that. I cannot boot past the white HTC logo on startup, so I can't get into the power settings.
I know for sure that it's not in fastboot because I've booted into hboot about 50 times previous to this tonight.

Pulling out and reinserting battery? then power on whill pushing volume down?

Yep, that's what I'm doing. Instead of flashing to the hboot screen like it normally does when I'm holding both buttons, the screen stays black until I release the buttons, then it starts loading up the HTC screen like it's trying to boot normally. Doesn't matter how long I hold the buttons for.

weird! sorry no other ideas

[Q] Help! Did I just kill My phone!

Hello. I have a TMO HTC Sensation that i was able to root and get S-Off. I have changed roms a few times with out a problem. Last night I tried to install
[ROM][RC]AOKP "Initiate Your Swagger"[4.1.2][Nov 22][OTA][1080p]
I went into HBOOT, Factory Reset. I did a full wipe and wiped the cache. I then installed the new rom. When i rebooted the phone it would load up let me pick a language but then boot loop. I went back to HBOOT to do a a full wipe again but cant. I can scroll up and down but cant select anything. If I try to select anything it will go to the the HTC boot screen and freeze. Can anyone help me?

no man don't worry it's just freeze or bootloop, kill your phone or ur phone is dead means the board burned! u just want to flash ur official ROM and root it and CWM and just install ur favorite ROM!

Thanks for the reply. Im going to try that now. Hopefully it works. Whenever I press the power button to select an option from the HBOOT menu screen all it those is go to the HTC boot screen and freeze. Will report back.

Did you update the firmware to the latest? If not than that might be the issue.

Run the ruu with phone connected from bootloader... Precisely if connected properly phone shows FASTBOOT USB if it is showing HBOOT then press power button once and it will take the phone to FASTBOOT USB mode
