ROM issues, help please!

My Inspire is having issues:
I flashed this rom using RomManager. Being stupid, when I put the rom on my SD card I deleted PD98IMG.zip from the rooting process. I went on to flash my ROM and am now stuck at the bootlogo with the CoreDroid spinning. It seems to have loaded but is stuck at that logo, because when I hit Menu or Home it vibrates as if doing it. I can access the bootloader and everything, but cannot flash PD98IMG.zip because I deleted it. I used the Inspire simple one click S-OFF to root it, and the program seems to see my device and push the file onto the SD card. Now HBoot won't see PD98IMG.zip so I'm stuck in this cycle. I need help, anyone got an idea of what to do?

Your best bet is to head back to THAT forum (CoreDroid, or Simple Root), and post your problem there. Someone will help you.

I pasted it there, thanks.

Can you get into recovery from the bootloader? If so wipe dalvik, data partition, and data factory reset. The flash the rom you want. Check the clockwork mod version your using. If you have 3.0. 0.5 you need to flash cm7. If you have 2.5. 1.3 flash your coredroid.

[Help Thread] [SOLVED] Crash at boot! (boot-loop)

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.

[Q] S4 , cant access my recovery or boot normally!

i cannot boot phone into recovery nor can i boot phone normally... I had just installed Viper one S rom on my phone and rebooted into recovery because my wifi wasnt working , so i was just going to revert back to an old rom. After clicking reboot to recovery from Viper rom the screen just went white . I had to power it down manually, after powering it up it would stop at htc screen with the red development lines... tried to go into recovery and it will come up for a second then disapear then phone reboots.... any ideas? oh I also had installed Latest radio in CWM after installing rom.. I hear its buggy in CWM...

I had the same problem. Did you flash the boot.IMG in recovery or fastboot? If you flashed in recovery and its not supported by your hboot version. That could be the issue. Try re flashing the boot.IMG using fastboot. If you still cannot get it to work. I would try reinstalling a custom recovery manually and restarting the Rom flashing process. There are forums all over the place to help with that. Try twrp. Ps this is all assuming you are able to get into your boot loader.

Problem fixed. Don't ask me how lol. All I did was relock boot loader and flash stock ROM. Stock ROM would not load so I just decided to unlocked boot loader and phone rebooted fine. Recover works to.. crazy.

That happened to me when I didn't fast boot flash the boot.IMG file, but only the latest Viper has given me grief with that.

[Q] Bricked my HTC One S

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...

I do not have a correct rom in my internal storage

as mentioned you need to get the "RUU" that we have and fastboot or SD-card install it.
