HY, the bootloop means that you are stucked at the boot sequence.This might be because you flashed the boot.img wrong/or you never wiped dalvik,cache ,etc.I suggest that you should wipe cache,dalvik,and factory reset 3 times before flasing the rom(it might not work entirely well the first 2 times) also, try to flash the boot.img correctly,and wait a few minutes (let it boot),you will now you are in bootloop after 15 minutes or so.

I did try that no help and after flashing stock rom now phone works just my internal memory is full only 17mb free so cant use almost any app cant wipe it what so ever even tried factory reset but no help

have you tried logcat to see what's causing the bootloop ?
I have an htc chacha, with the same memory problem as yours, but I managed to mount the /data folder on the sdcard's 2nd partition, and now I have 4 gb internal memory. I can have more if I change the partitions size, but I don't need more.

First of all you need to unlock your phone via htcdev. Did you do that already?

yup done that about a year ago !!!!

Are you familiar with linux ? I did all the process in linux because it's much more friendly in these cases. You will need kitchen tool, kernel kitchen, boot.img editing, and of course, cwm recovery it's a must. My phone succesfully booted when I used a class 10 sandisk sdcard.

I guess your method of flashing was incorrect, can you explain in detail ?

1. Copy FlyROM zip file to sd-card.
2. Reboot into Recovery.
3. Wipe Data/Factory reset.
4. Install zip from sd card and select the zip file and then select yes to Flash.
5. Reboot after installation completes.
6. Now Apply Patch 3 for Flyrom
what could be wrong in this ????

1. Copy FlyROM zip file to sd-card.
2. Reboot into Recovery.
3. Wipe Data/Factory reset.
4. Wipe Cache Partition.
5. Wipe Dalvick cache.
6. Install zip from sd card and select the zip file and then select yes to Flash.
7. Wipe Cache Partition.
8. Wipe Dalvick cache.
9. Reboot.

could it possibly be because you forgot to clear cache or do a factory reset?

no problem
download a custom ROM (I'd suggest a sense 3 one look at index thread on development for your options) to your sd card
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache
flash the custom ROM
Or if you have a backup simply restore that

I flashed superwipe then flashed ROM then did "reboot now"
Its been 20 mins still stuck at HTC boot screen.
Please tell me what to do
take out the battery reinsert it and just turn it on, don't go to recovery, if again stuck on boot screen, try flashing again both things, but AFTER superwipe, wipe sd ext manually, AFTER flashing the rom, do factory reset. If this doesn't help choose another rom. Also same thing may appear if your sd isn't partitioned corectly, how did you did it?

i havent partitioned my sd card. Its fat 32
I am also a noob
jaydenmonckton- No it won't wipe the rom, it maybe will just rearange some files, about superwipe, it sometimes gives error about sd-ext which users almost never see, my advice was to do it anyway cos it won't do any harm.
praveenbusy- Exactly from that you have errors, every rom which has preconfigured some kind of script requires sd-ext partition, which is almost every 2.3.5 except stock ones. I say almost, because jaggy's 2.7 and earlyer builds, a2sd gives some errors and after that rom is usable, I think Ateeq's also was working but I'm not sure about it . Definetely it's better to repartition your sd with ext partition.
I once tried to make a clean backup of my stock rom....so i wipe data / factory reseted and then backuped !! But i coundnt restore that nandroid, always get in a bootloop !

whenever i try to do partition with Minitool its gives me Error code :16
dont know whats the problem
My is a 4gb card i use a memorycard reader .I tried doing ext4 partition of 1 gb with no luck.
Do it from recovery, you just have to keep in mind that your WHOLE sd will be erased, so if you have something important on it, move it.
jaydenmonckton- did you turn on the phone after factory reset, because if you didn't it's normal to give you bootloop now, I don't have any ideas why it's doing this, it shouldn't, if you say exactly(step by step, everithing) how did you make the backup..... then it's possible to figure out what's wrong, if you are interested thou.

Did you check MD5 before flashing? Could be a bad download.
Usually boot loop issues are due to left overs from your previous rom so,
If you're on CWM recovery , use this ORDER :
1.Reset user data/factory reset
2.Format System
3.Format Data
4.Format Cache
5.Format SD card (back up your important files first)..
Then flash the rom ... Don't wipe dalvik it's already in /data
This applies not just to CM10 , use this procedure to any rom flash or any nandroid restore ...

Low Internal Storage Problem

hello frnds and experts plz help me I have recently rooted my phone and I'm created two partitions using minitool to increase the internal storage also installed link2sd on my phone first time it's asked for 2nd partition select I chosen "fat32"(i'm in stock Rom so it's only supports fat32).
after that I'm restarted the phone everything goes ok but when I try to link the apps to SD card it's giving me an error like"install..failed...insufficient storage" but my 2nd partition has 1gb free memory it's showing in "storage info".
and I'm unable to link apps to sd card. I'm also done via recovery mode but it's created an ext2 partition and my phone don't support this(I'm using jaggyjags cmw recovery) so plz help me to solve this problem...
I noticed my recovery supports only ext2,3,4. at the sametime my phone support fat32 only.
I'm on stock Rom and also plz don't suggest me to use custom Rom , I don't want use that now. tell me which recovery supports fat32 as 2nd partition.
sorry for my bad English and lengthy matter.....!

None..all recoveries support ext partition not fat32, you should flash stock based roms because those roms support ext partition & are already configured that way so you won't need to worry about internal memory if you partition your sdcard right way & flash one of those roms..ateeqrom,jaggyrom,nextgen are stock based roms, flash.

stock kernel does not support ext partition..you can reset your rooted htc thru recovery..bro use stock based custom roms..they are 100% stable & same as stock rom with additional features. Just give it a try.

thanks for the rply but I have few more doubts.
Yeah I know that stock kernel don't support ext partitions also I created fat32 but apps not moving there as I said showing error like "insufficient storage".
I'm using jagyys cmw recovery v5 is it safe to factory reset via recovery mode? will I don't get into the deep boot loop na? I'm a bit scared about this...
planning to flash a stock based Rom but before this I want to change the kernel to see the 2nd partition thing work or not, if it's not work I will flash jaggyjags Rom .

Before flashing the ROM I always wipe cache.. wipe data( factory reset ) ..Wipe SD-ext.. wipe Dalvik cache... then mount system.. mount data.. mount SD-ext and then install the update zip... I have never experienced any issue in flashing ROM after following these steps.... let me know if it works!! Cheers :
