Bootloop Help

Hiya
I've been stuck on boot loop for the past few hours, it all started when I installed the new firmware that is recommended for VI3.5. Since then I can only get to the HTC Logo and sometimes the beginning of the VI logo.
I've tried superwiping, installing rom again, nandroid restoring everything.
Can anyone give me a suggestion on what to try next? Thanks.

Flash firmware again. Note that it reboots the phone in the middle of the process before flashing some more components. Once this is done, delete PG58IMG.zip from your SD card and flash your ROM.

Okay I will try this when I get back from uni. Thanks

As it was mentioned above - reflash the firmware.
I had the same issue with this ROM, and it helped.

Without the proper firmware to match the ROM, it will never boot up. Most ROMS state with firmware is needed, so check the ROM page.

Okay I got home and redownloaded the firmware from here:
http://www.virtuousrom.com/p/inquisition.html
Put the file on root of memory card and the phone picked it up and went through the process. Installed 3.5.0 and it still gets to the htc logo then reboots.

check the md5 of both rom and firmware before flashing--twice!

The md5 of the firmware was correct, I checked that before flashing it. Dunno about rom though. ROM matches too :/ Any other ideas?
Is there a previous firmware i could try that would work with this rom?

try 3.30 i run it at hypernonsense arhd and it worked so far.

Should it matter which 3.3.0 firmware i install? There are various ones. I had CID before but dunno whether it would have disabled it.

Okay I checked SuperCID with adb and i definitely still have it. I tried flashing the HTC_version1 3.3.0 firmware and the hypernonsense rom, i get to the same stage - htc logo and a tiny bit of the hypernonsense logo.

I finally got it working! After trying almost everything I went back to a early firmware and it came to life.
Apparently I'm not the only one with this issue.
Thanks a ton for all the help though.

np mate goodluck

I had the same issue! I have never had any luck - period - with firmwares posted in individual ROM threads. They always boot-loop. The only ones that work for my device are the ones posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
Very strange...

Lol i also have the same problem. The only fw that works the 3.12 hboot 1.23 one. Havent tried the 3.30 one yet. Do you experience wifi problems by any chance? I had them and it started becoming unbearable after a week, had to go back to gingerbread in the end

I would venture that some elements from an older RUU aren't touched by the new image being flashed. This conflict would cause boot loops I imagine.

Stuck in reboot loop

I just installed CWM via odin and all seemed well then I tried installing two different ICS based roms and both resulted in being stuck in a reboot loop. Could I have done something wrong? I have tried some fixes I saw posted around but nothing fixed the issue.

make sure u use darksidr before every flash. Also make sure u wipe dalvik cache. Did u install the uclca4 radio before u tried those roms?

1. What's darksidr? I backed it up so I can go back... I just want ICS
2. I did dalvik twice
3. No, one ICS rom said you needed to install radio but the other didn't and on the first step of installing the rom it looked like the radio may have been packaged with the rom. Where can I find the radio download?

Got the radio and no luck =/

flash superlite 5.1, it does all the work for u

I flashed superlite 5.0, where is 5.1?
but 5.0 did it all for me too and didn't work =/

loom for darkside wipe and flash it. Superlite 5.1 just got posted, try it. If that doesn't work, odin back stock, reflash cwm, and flash superlite again.

Go to the top of rom page and read read read then Google Google Google. You guys are making the skyrocket forum look like crap. 1 INSTALL ODIN ICS FOR A START. INSTALL CWM. FIND A ROM. FOLLOW THEIR INSTRUCTIONS! You should have it. SHOULD

I did everything you mentioned. I installed odin, installed CWM, found a rom, did everything the developer instructed me to do, the developer was aware of the problem and none of his fixes worked for me so I was advised to ask elsewhere. Yeah, I don't flash roms every week like I used to with my HD2 and this is my first time really messing with radios so I asked for help. That's what the forums are for. I'm sure I've invested more money in this community than you have and I think I completely deserve to make a few retarded posts once every 10 months. Thanks for all your help with your troll posts

After Odin, did u boot into the phone and let it cycle and then install Odin cwm? Give that a try. Also, most of the updated ROMs already have the proper radio, no need to flash. Let us know how it goes.

Run the: ics odin one click. Then odin cwm recovery. Then flash ics rom. Or just flash this rom and you'll be good to go
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1585290

In cwm its also very important to format /system before you flash the new rom. You didn't really mention if you did that or not, so I'm just saying, just in case

The rom in that link i posted formats the system and cache for you. So you do not neex to wipe anything

I don't know what you've done to your phone. Perhaps if you make a very detailed list of what your setup is and what you've done so far we can help get you going. Be specific

Afternoon iLiberate,
What carrier are you with?
~PsyCl0ne
EDIT: Actually you know what come over to [RoM] ~[4.0.3.]~TEAM PERFECTION~REVAMPING
Now a couple of things before you start.
I am using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1472954 for my recovery. I have had issues with a newer version but this one has helped me through a ton of issues I have had.
(Flash this with ODIN first)
I also recommend getting a wiping script DARKSIDE Super wipe. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487706
(Give props to the guy that put this script together. Keep the zip file some where easy to access, you will be moving it to your phones external SD card along with the rom zip and kernel files.)
When you go into the TeamPerfection thread it is gonna be kind of confusing looking at all the links. Basically you will see 3 Themes (AOSP ICE, KOBALT, Phone Candy) then a link to a rom that is already themed, and finally the stock rom which you will need if you want to flash any of the three themes I listed earlier. For now I would just go for the Sense release we can always change what it looks like later.
Also you will need a kernel.
If you're with AT&T I would suggest getting Mohan's kernel. If you're with a Canadian carrier I would suggest Romracer's kernel.
From here you can basically follow the guide in post number 3. It is really simple just need a little patience and it will go through. Also if you have any titanium backups from Gingerbread, please don't restore those apps when your phone comes back up. Just scribble down a list of apps you currently are running, make backups of SMS/MMS if you wish and then manually download them one by one from the market. Then you can make a Tibu of the apps so if you want to change what your phone looks like you can just restore all the apps in one go.
If you need any more help please feel free to PM me, I honestly don't mind or even post back here. Gonna be doing some work around the house but I'll check back periodically.

you can flash any gingerbread rom or cm7 and you will boot up fine ..again you need to go to recovery manually
or
in this current situation ..you can just flash 3.32/3.33 firmware and bootup fine
for flashing firmware refer this thread

Start at the beginning. When you rooted your phone what ROM/build were you on? Stock? What Recovery are you running? Did you make a backup? In my experience, you usually get a system 7 error when the download is bad, (did you check the MD5?) or if you're trying to flash a ROM that doesn't match your current system (IE: trying to flash a JB ROM when you're currently on ICS.)
The more info we have, the better we can help you.

Uh status 7 is assert protection so its a mismatch usually in device info typically model numbers, and has nothing to do with bad downloads.

I had a stock rom on it and found a youtube video referencing the how to guide in this forum, walked everything through step by step but didn't do the twrp thing, only odin . Tried it, didn't work. Didn't checkthe MD5 as it wasnt referenced in the video (have since seen it in the thread).
I'm gonna try and flash a stock rom with odin if I can and start over and ignore the youtube video.
At the moment Odin is the only program on my computer that talks to my phone so I'm hoping that works, just gotta find how to do it...

That's an alternate form of DL mode. Odin a stock ROM from that screen. Read the Noobs Guide. Odin is finicky so pay attention to the guide. Then read it again. Once you've read and comprehend it all spin in a circle saying "I deserve this" three times and Odin will grant your wish. lol

Got it working, used TWRP to flash the latest RC CM 10.1
Got it all going now after a minor heart attack and a few more grey hairs. Just gotta figure out why the wifi isn't working at all now. Can't get it to turn on.

Your original 'system error 7' problem was most likely caused by trying to flash a newer ROM with an older version of CWM or TWRP. Glad you got the phone up, can't help you with the wifi problem, sorry. Although, what modem did you flash, if any? System Settings -> About phone -> Baseband version?

I flashed the UXUMA7 radio, didnt really do much, it worked before.
Still can't figure out the Wifi though :-/ just straight up won't turn on.

If you are on a newer CM 10.1 , the only supported radio is UCMC1, UXUMA7 is really old. That may be why wifi is not working.

UXUMA7 and UCMC1 are very similar. First one is the Rogers and second is att's release which is usually late by a month or so after rogers. Bottom line both will work.
Have your radiofile.zip, cm10.1.zip, and gapps from 20130301 all on your SD card.
Do you have a back up, nandroid? If not do it now.
Go to recovery and Clean up well:
Go to mounts and format data, system, cach twice or three times. Go to advanced and clean dalvik cache. Don't reboot
Now installing in this order:
- radio
-cm10.1
-gapps
Now reboot your phone.
Wait until it is finished and leave it untouched for 10 minutes to settle down and do its thing.
Then turn it off back on and enjoy.
Your noob status will start to fade if you do a clean install :thumbup:
