HI i accidentally hit a sudden update prompt that appeared i the bootloader and now the device wont reboot .
not even after restore .
what do i do?
hoping for quick response .
You need to provide more information, the device won't "reboot"? Reboot or Boot up? As of right now, I'm understanding that you're just STUCK in bootloader and can't reboot... and what is this restore? I've absolutely no idea what you've done to your phone to help rectify the issue, I doubt many others could either. I'm thinking maybe you did the 3.24 firmware update, that's why the restore won't work. But who does an update without having any idea...?
well i was trying to flash the once1csv11 and it would not boot ,so then i restored the original backup and added the pg58img.zip to the sd card and and booted the bootloader and that when it prompted me with the update message and i accidentally hit yes instead of no so then the update started and finished and when i triad to reboot it just gets to the bootanimation and reboots , so then i went into recovery and did a full wipe and restored the backup again but it still wont boot.
I agree we need more information, what update did you install, can you access recovery?

What was the PG58IMG?

I guess that you've installed 3.24 firmware and now trying to boot GB ROM. Is that correct? What ROM have you restored and currently trying to boot? What have you accidently flashed? Was that firmware v3.24? If my guess is correct, flash 3.12 firmware from this topic and it should boot.

I recently just rooted my shift to rooted 2.2 them did a custom rom cm7.1.0 speedy everything went very well.....then i decided to update the radio and wimax....did that through bootloader with a pg06img.zip file containing both....udated fine then went to reboot and i got stuck on the htc screen.......when i did this with the stock rooted rom no problem....except it didn't update the radio etc......
if any body has any suggestions i would greatly appreciate it....thank you
This is covered in the radio thread.. Take the zip off the root of your sdcard, boot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik, then reboot. If it still won't boot you may have to restore your nand, don't worry this won't revert back to the old radios.

stuck on htc screen
ok i seem to have fixed the problem with a little trick....the problem was that i had that pg601img.zip on my sd so every time i would try and go into the bootloader it would automatically load that file so i could not go to recovery could not delete it from sd via pc due to write protection so what it did let me do is rename the file.....so that it would let me chose recovery(clockworkmod recovery) so i could load my rom backup
still a noob

haha I hate when that happens.
I don't think that little trick is very obvious to most of us who flashed a radio our first time.

I know, I edited my walk through with a note about this.
Hey guys and Gals, I got my HTC Sensation on the release date and I decided to root it yesterday. Everything went fine and completed the root, then I tried to install THIS ROM after I made a Backup of my old ROM. So the ROM required me to Update ICS Firmware, so I downloaded the file and my phone asked me to update at Bootloader and I hit yes.
So here's my problem, after I tried to reboot my phone would get to the "HTC Quietly Brilliant" screen, and then restart the process over and over and over. Basically, the phone keeps hanging for about 5sec at the "HTC Quietly Brilliant" screen, and restarts after.
Sorry if I wrote too much, Please tell what I did wrong here, and if you want more info please ask. I need this phone up and running by tomorrow, PLEASE HELP!

You're sure the firmware update was successful? I don't see you mentioning anything about superCID in there... unless you got one that doesn't require superCID. It appears that some members do the firmware thing and are unaware that they failed to flash the firmware. Make sure you've got that flashed!
Oh and you also wiped prior to flashing right?
Please read the thread of the ROM you are trying to flash your phone with from beginning to end before flashing so you understand exactly what you are doing. Since ICS leaks the forum is littered with a hundred of these help threads.
Have you updated the correct firmware required to run ICS? Did you remember to remove the file from your ad card prior to rebooting the phone? As mentioned above did you super CID your device?

Yes I did SuperCID my phone when I was doing the rooting process. I did everything in that thread, but then flashed the other "PG58IMG" file since the ROM required it and then the flash was "Successfully Updated". No I didnt wipe my phone before I flashed the new firmware. Maybe thats my problem ?
PG58IMG file has to be deleted from the sd card after flashing firmware before the phone boots or you will get bootloop. From recovery, power off, remove the ad card and put it into a cardreader on your pc and delete the file, reinsert the ad card into phone and boot into recovery then you can flash the ROM.

The only thig I'd add is to SuperWipe before installing the new ROM. There is one on the ARHD thread in the OP.
Ok guys, it worked I flashed the ICS ROM and its working perfectly. Now what if I want to go back to an Android 2.3.X ROM, what do I do ?
Thanks a Million times :]
You flash the appropriate Firmware and either flash a ROM based on Gingerbread, or flash one of the RUUs.

kthnxbye! :d <3
First off I'm very new to everything Andriod coming from iPhone for the last 4 years.
I'm in a very simular problem to ORStoner who posted a thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1624431
I have tried everything that people suggested to this user but I'm still locked on the HTC screen.
So I unlock the bootloader which was a success then I flashed clockwork recovery which went well. However then I flashed a zip that I got from this site http://www.guidingtech.com/10821/disable-3-three-dot-menu-htc-one-x-map-to-task-switcher-button/
I went through all the instructions but knowing me probably screwed up somewhere.
My Clockwork version is recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru
any ideas because I feel lost with no phone.
Thanks
By anychance did you make a nanroid backup from clockwork before you flashed? Also did you also wipe everything like cache,dalvik-cache,data,system,sd-android secure,you gotta make sure you DONT WIPE YOUR SD card.
Unfortunately I was stupid enough NOT to back up, rookie mistake!!!. I have cleared all Cache including dalvik. No luck, So frustrating.
I just read the last part of your post, I did wipe the SD. I need the original files to flash any idea where i can get them?
Download a rom update utility (ruu) from
Forum. Flash stock recovery (you can find in modacos thread. ) Relock bootloader using fastboot oem lock. Start ruu and follow the directions. You can unlock bootloader again later.

Hi all,
Got mine today, tried to install a ROM and it got stuck in bootloop.
I did a number of stupid things not to mention wiping the SD and im in serious trouble.
I can get into bootloader and CWM but thats it.
Ive heard restoring a RUU can cure it but I have a MAC and cant find anything to help.
Can anyone help? Im gutted....and fell like an idiot.
Ive got an S4 on the three network.
Thanks
Hold down the power button for 10 seconds then after the touch buttons stop flashing, just hold the volume button and see if ot enters the bootloader.

Specifically you'll have to flash the ROM zip file from the recovery and then use fastboot flash boot boot.img.
You can find boot.img inside the ROM zip file
Tried flashing ROM zip but no joy...when should i flash boot img? before or after recovery?

Finally seem to have done it and managed to RUU
The phone is locked to 3 but as a noob I spent 2 days flashing a generic euro ROM.
When i realised i need a ROM to match CID i downloaded 1.53. Tried this a number of times with no joy.
Just tried 1.78 and it seems to be working
Thanks to everyone for your help - us noobs must be sooooooo annoying.
Htc One S bricked
Hi im relatively new at rooting and am currently experiencing issues with a bricked device.
i have two htc one s devices
my personal one is running cm10 ville with clockwork touch recovery and is working perfectly
however the second one i was using the same exact files.
this one is bricked
its in a constant bootloop.
i can get back to my recovery just fine and get to the fastboot in the phone fine
i cleared my cache
wiped my data and wiped the dalvik cache all perfectly fine when i try to flash the cm10 official rom back on it cannot mount the sd card
i would try to install a different recovery and try again maybe using viper one s
but i cannot get the phone to power on
it doesnt showup on the computer when it is plugged in while in fastboot
when i try the cmd fastboot flash recovery it says waiting for device
any advice. this is not my own phone so i need it repaired pretty quickly.
any helpful information would be much appreciated.

Bootloop does not mean your bricked...means you need to fastboot flash boot.img

This little post just pulled me out of missery. Love ya man!
all you guys getting sorted
make a nandroid and sdcard bu NOW and put them on pc,
obviously leave a copy of nandroid on phone also
makes it a lot easier if you get in trouble again
and you/we will
Mounts and Storage --> Format everything --> Now Mount USB Drive --> Put Gapps and ROM
Flash it, erase cache & and Dalvik...Blah blah blah. Flash boot.img in fastboot, and there you go.
Everybody, please remember this and there won't be noob q&a anymore...

Hi all,
just bought HTC Butterfly X920D 3 days ago from a guy. I realise he has root this device bcos I cannot do OTA update. System check download the update but failed to install. After that I search for a fix n found CWM & Rom manager. I flashed recovery & try to apply the update manually buy CWM says E:Cant mount sdcard, can access cache, blocking device required. Then I look for another fix and arrived here. After all that mess, I tried to factory reset the device via setting in phone is but after resetting n restarts, my HTC is entering recovery again and I opted from the menu selected "boot systems now". It booted andall the contents is still there!
Looks like the reset function isn't working anymore. Any suggestions on what I shud do?
Thx on advance. Cheers
you have to install the original recovery before applying the OTA.
I have it here
