[Q] Htc inspire boot problem

Hey there this is my first post here.
I have problems with my HTC INSPIRE 4G.
When i shut down or reboot my device take a long time in black screen, after that HTC logo an vibrating.. it takes like 5 minutes, i mean 5 minutes vibrating. after that vibrating stops and short time after that the CM9 logo and start. the whole process is about 10 minutes.
I don´t know if this is a hardware problem or software. Today i was trying to update my radio with fastboot. but i don´t even finish the process. in the part of ADB reboot, the device reboot and since that the problem is present.
What can i do? i can not get into recovery mode or bootloader.
i made a little research and over there is a procedure for fixing the soft brick with fastboot, but i don´t know if this is a brick or what.
Please Help
PS. Sorry for the bad english.

Your bootloader is messed up. Did you buy your phone used or did you root it yourself.

See if you can use aahk to flash a newer hboot version. It may not be able to because of the slowness. You can also use a PD98IMG to flash hboot from bootloader. I would try the aahk method first though.

I tried the aahk and it stuck right after i select option 1. What you mean with the PD98IMG? I can not access top bootloader right now

Im triying one more time the aahk and it is working but now is in the part when the device supouse to restart and it says "waiting for device"
and the device i taking a long to reboot. i will wait and post the results.
TY

the aahk is stoped in writing "ZIP"....
What if i close the windows and try again?

Do you know how to use adb. You can boot to bootloader from pc using adb with the "adb reboot bootloader" command. If you can I have a PD98IMG you can load onto root of sd card that will prompt to install from bootloader screen. Due to the slowness though you will have to be patient.

You place that file in the root of your sd card (outside of any and all folders). Once you are in hboot, the system will check for it automatically, then it will ask you if you want to apply the update.

As teichopsia said load it on root of sd and boot into bootloader. When using adb to reboot you will end up in fastboot and will need to select bootloader. Give it time after that to find the image. Also in the future you will want to flash radios using the same method. All inspire radios are packed into a PD98IMG. You shouldn't need fastboot to do anything.

I have just fixed this problem using Gizmoe's PD98IMG (thank you) and Glevitan's tutorial (thank you).
The whole process is listed but you must BE PATIENT! I will take a couple of hours, most of the time waiting for something to happen.
Good luck.

[Q] Storage Problem

I've essentially messed up my phone. I managed to root and install the paranoid android rom onto my HTC One S, but after this, I noticed that my phone thinks that it's supposed to have external storage. So, when I go into the camera app, it doesn't let me take pictures as there is no SD card. I can't connect my phone to the computer for some reason. But I am able to download apps from the Play Store. Please, please, please help.
Thanks in advance
Alex
PS: I installed the ROM ages ago, and I don't remember how I did it. I have clockwork recovery and fastboot. Thanks again.

Install goomanager then give it root access, and then hit menu and click install open recovery... Then do a backup of your Rom and try installing a new Rom and see if the error pops up again.

Thanks for the quick reply. Slight problem, I can't download anything because it automatically tries to download to the non-existent SD card.

It's on Google play, can't you download apps of the market too ?

I have the app, the problem is that when I try to Install OpenRecoveryScript, it has to download a recovery image which I tried, but it just says the download failed because of the SD card.

http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/ville/openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-ville.img
Drop that file where your fastboot file is located and go into your bootloader and type "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-Ville.img" then "fastboot reboot-bootloader" then go into your recovery and try reflashing the Rom. Twrp is far better then clockworks.

[Q] [Help]Attempting to Unroot Phone, Phone's Powercycling

Hello everyone. So today I tried to root my phone for the first time and all was fine. I could download and use apps that required root access. Then I tried to flash CM 10.1.3, and that's where things got messy. After I flashed, it was saying that unauthorized software was on my phone, and I had to go to verizon. I figured this was because my bootloader unlock didn't work. So I tried flashing a stock 4.1.2 rom, and now my phone's just powercycling. Any ideas? Yes, I am new to this, feel free to yell at me for being an idiot for forgetting some obvious thing.

I think you need to Odin back to a stock build and then repeat the entire process of rooting, unlocking, etc.
I could also be wrong, so we'll get yelled at together.

You'e right lol
@Elerock, does powercycling = stuck at the Verizon LTE splash screen or boot animation? If so, boot into recovery (hold power, home, and volume up) then do a factory reset. Root and unlock following these directions.

Sense 5 K2_UL WORKING!!!

Hi everyone! I've figured out how to install the Russian RUU on to most One SV's. I've tested with my MID: PL8015000 and it works . Got the file from a post on this page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2512742&page=3 but I can't reply cause i'm an xda noob Anyways what you do is download the RUU, Unzip it, edit android-info.txt and change the model number to ur mid, zip them all up again then flash away using Fastboot oem rebootRUU , Fastboot flash zip (the new zip) and this takes a while then reboot... VOILA!!! SENSE 5!!!!! enjoy Hope this helps. Do this at ur own risk.

K2_CL is out of the question. Just want to add this before someone with that phone makes an attempt without thinking about the partitions.
Sent from my C525c using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

If that's the case, why not edit the script to flash to the correct partition for k2_cl phones?

we would still need a working boot.img.....

Not only would we still need a working boot.img but we would have to basically create our own version of the 4.2.2 OTA. It sounds simple to edit, but ultimately it is not as you would need to go in and edit many on top of many different files and that is still assuming you edit such files with the proper editor as some files require itself to hold on to its integrity. Like UTF-8 for example. At best you could always port it.

Boost ics stock rom?

Does anyone have Boost ics stock rom? My bootloader is unlocked and I have cwm but s-on. I don't have a way to get on a pc. Can I install through recovery with a nandroid or a .zip with s-on?

Sorry I didn't mean to post this in this thread. I'm not sure how to move it..

A moderator has to move it upon request. Yes, one is available on here, but you are S-On so you may have to pull the boot file from the backup, change name to boot.img then flash it using fastboot (which requires a pc)
However, I haven't been S-On in a long time so I could be wrong about the boot.img...
@russellvone could you elaborate for me.
Sent from my C525c using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Thanks for the quick reply! I know flashing probably wouldn't work and I already tried to use a jb nandroid from my brothers phone which didn't work which is why I was wondering if a stock ics unrooted would work

I'm not real sure what happened. All I did was do factory reset in cwm and now its stuck on the HTC quietly brilliant

Haha, that's simple, when you did a factory reset in CWM you formatted your partitions. Your boot.img is still intact but you have nothing on your data, system, etc so there is nothing to load which is why you are not getting past the screen. Only do a factory reset in a custom recovery when like flashing a Rom for example. Which version OS were you on originally before you wiped your phone out ....

I don't have an ICS backup, but I know @russellvone does. He keeps stuff like this on hand for just a situation like this one. However, you should only need to flash the system.img and be good after that. I recommend doing an OTA update in your settings once you get your device back up and going. We will be receiving 4.2.2 with Sense 5 soon.
Anyways, I tagged him as you can see. Just visit back here periodically to see if he replied back. He will, I guarantee you that. He will help you restore your device

Okay, thanks for the help! Much appreciated!!! Would I have to flash the system.img with fastboot or would it be in a nandroid?

You will use your custom recovery. He will explain the steps. .

You can use a JB backup but you will need the firmware.zip that comes in the JB OTA to flash in rebootRUU to complete the process on your device.
I sent a pm to russellvone about the situation so when he responds he should already be good to go to help you out.

Lol this stuff is so confusing. I'm still a noob on this phone haha. I wish there was something like mobile odin for HTC devices

Also, go S-Off so next time if something goes wrong like this you won't need a PC (unless it is something serious lol).

Yeah I've been checking this off and on. You guys are life savers!! Thanks alot!

Your boot.img is still intact so flashing that Rom should get you booted up just fine. If for any reason you get stuck on the HTC screen then you will need to extract the boot.img and flash it with fastboot (however that shouldn't be necessary since you are still on stock boot.img for ICS)

Everyone on XDA is a noob. Don't care what their skills are. Skills just mean they have more knowledge and experience in one area but it doesnt mean they know everything. So no worries with the questions. Ask away when need to. Though, try to post in the right location next time lol
