Hello. I am new to this forum so bare with me lol. Recently I rooted my G1 using the following guide.
http ://forum.xda-developers. com/showthread.php?t=727688
Everything was working perfect. I went to Rom Manager app and updated recovery image and my phone was rebooting fine. Today I could not send text messages so I rebooted my phone and it gets stuck on G1 screen. Home+power doesnt work but camera+power works. What can I do?? I searched for 3 hours already and I only read that people fixed it but no one gave step by step instructions

Does it only get stuck on the splash screen when you try to boot into recovery? Or does it not boot into the ROM at all?
Same thing
I have the same thing happening to me but there is no ROM. So I am able to get into FASTBOOT but it wont flash anything but I have no ROM or RECOVERY IMAGE
In fastboot you can flash, either download the original RC29 DREAIMG.NBH, or get the fastboot executable on your PC (mostly in PATH in sdk/tools/ with adb) and flash recovery with fastboot:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
In the Cyanogen Wiki there is a link for both recoveries (RA and CWM).

When I go into fastboot which I suppose is camera+power, I dont have any options to flash. I have 4 options...
<CAMERA STEP2> HBoot Mode
<SEND> Reset Device
<ACTION> Restart to HBoot
<MENU> Power Down
To clarify, my phone does not boot at all and no recovery.

The fastboot command is entered on the computer , Windows command line for example

Is good guide to show you the basics, just download a dream recovery instead of sapphire/magic recovery image

Are you able to go through the root process again. Sounds like your only option to me.
I have absolutely no clue how to get the fastboot to load. My adb doesnt turnon on pc nor the fastboot. Im a noob to this stuff.

Thank you for the link but I cant run sdk setup because it doesnt detect my java although I installed it. Also I will not be able to put my phone in debug mode since I cant boot it.
How can I put java in my classpath? could you clarify?

In Linux you have to enter:
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
On the shell, where JAVA_HOME points to the directory where java is installed.
In Windows you have to open your settings, and to find the PATH configuration. There you have to add the bin-Directory of your Java-Installation. But you have to separate by a ';' instead of ':'.
Hope that will help you ...

i can get into the "android system recovery" menu, but i dont know what to do from there...if anything.
nandroid restore gives me an error.

If anyone lives around chicago land area, I am willing to pay for someone to help me out withthis problem.
there have been a load of issues flashing recovery from within a rom when running CM5 or 6....unfortunately, most of the "clear warnings" are far from that....
if you are having trouble setting up fastboot, have a look at this guide, it may be of benefit to you....you only really need to follow the fastboot instructions (note. the guide is for ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04)

Hello everyone!
I've used ROM manager to flash clockwork mod recovery and it worked great until I realised that this clockwork doesn't see my SD card! I just wanted to know is there a solution to this without going back to stock etc?
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium HD app
Never fear! Fastboot is here!
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img from the command line of your computer (you must have motorola drivers installed plus adb/fastboot tools)
I recommend Rogue Recovery, it's over in the android development section. Others prefer TWRP and EOS recovery. Take your pick. All support the internal SD card.
Thanks for your reply!
I thought about it initially, wanted to repeat steps used to flash it when original recovery was on. But first command re-booted xoom and took me to clockwork (no s..t, Sherlock? ) and then I thought I better stop before I end up with a brick.
So just to be clear, connect my xoom, go to the right folder on my pc and type:
fastboot flash recovery file-name.img
is that correct? do I need to be in recovery?

So you need to be in bootloader mode, not recovery. You can either turn the xoom on then press the down button about 2 seconds after you see the splash screen or use 'adb reboot bootloader'. I think it says 'starting fastboot protocol', can't quite remember from memory. then as you said, go to the right folder type fastboot flash recovery file-name.img
then fastboot reboot
then you'll be able to get into your custom recovery
love you man!
no access to recovery
I've got big problem. My One Mini is fine until I try to go into recovery. It refuses to go there.
I get fastboot and bootloader menus fine. It enters bootloader, but if I try to go into recovery, it just goes back to the main bootloader menu.
The problem started when I flashed CWMRecovery. Fastboot and adb recognise my phone, and accept commands, but when I try to fastboot flash recovery in it sends an error message. File not found.
I tried " fastboot boot recovery.img" but that just froze the machine .
When I try to get into recovery from rom manager or ROM toolbox pro, it takes me to the fastboot menu, not into recovery, and we're back to square one, as above.
Running android 4.3 Sense 5.5 software 2.12.401.1 Supercid 11111111
rooted and unlocked
To get the phone to work again, I have to hold power down for about 10 secs direct from fastboot/bootloader...may have to do this several times before it boots into Android.
If I turn power off from bootloader, it returns to bootloader when I power up again.
If I don't turn the phone off, once in main application, it's all OK.
Ho hum.
As I say , it works like a dream until I want to go into recovery.
Any ideas, please?
Thanks

The correct command to flash the recovery is
Code:
fastboot flash recovery your_recovery_image.img
see also: wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_fastboot_intro
Booting into recovery should be possible with
Code:
adb reboot recovery
I didnt tried CWM on the Mini, but used it on my old Marvel. I'm satisfied with TWRP for the Mini.
greetings
Yes, thanks. I know the commands should work...but that's the trouble..they don't!
I can get into the recovery menu...HBOOT /FASTBOOT / RECOVERY and so on, but selecting "RECOVERY" simply sends me back to HBOOT menu.
I can't flash anything under FASTBOOT, either. I've been doing this sort of thing for several years without trouble....until now!
So come on chaps..thinking caps on , please.

The RUU wouldn't run: it reported an unknown error, but having done so, it must have done something, as when I rebooted, I had access to recovery once again...briefly! Then it went again.
Anyway, I re locked / unlocked , locked a few times, and hey presto, it's sprung back into life!
Hi,
I have some serious problem with my Desire S. My recovery is probably broken, TWRP logo pops up but that the phone just reboots. After deleting cache and flashing new recovery I´m unable to boot my device, stuck on CM logo. My hardware keys never worked for booting to botloader. Is there any other way to recover my device? I tried fastboot reboot and adb after powering on the device but nothing.

Try to flash other recovery via fastboot and try to flash boot.img via fastboot too.

Can you post your boot info? Hboot?S-ON or S-OFF?
You can access fastboot?And write without errors?
Try 4ext recovery but first when you download check md5 for file.

Boot ur phone into fastboot and put the recovery.img inside ur fastboot folder on ur pc (make sure u rename ur recovery file "recovery.img) plug in ur phone and type this command.
fastboot boot recovery.img
See if that boot u into recovery then u can try flash a rom from there. I posted latest 4ext recovery in desire s general thread, look for that and try the above command using 4ext recovery

Unfortunately the recovery problem is not fixed. TWRP logo appears but that the phone reboots.
EDIT: I booted 4ext recovery in safe mode, wiped all and it fixed that. Thank you so much.
Hello,
I have recived the OTA today and I flashed it and now I dont have a custom recovery and root. What steps do I need to take to get those things back? I have tried to use this guide https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...oader-install-custom-recovery-and-root.64487/ but after flashing recovery.img through ADB I still have normal CM recovery.
Go to Developer Options in Settings and disable the "update CM recovery" option.
Transmitted via Bacon
It has been disabled the whole time
Ok. So you say you're flashing the recovery through adb but that's impossible so I'm assuming you're flashing with fastboot, right?

Looks ok. Where are you getting the recovery from? Did you rename it to "recovery.img" for a reason?
Transmitted via Bacon
I've got that file from TWRP website and I renamed it to recovery.img. I have succesfully booted into this recovery with a command "fastboot boot recovery.img" which allowed me to flash root and xposed form it but after rebooting the phone the old recovery remains...
I have the same problem. Flash TWRP says it's flashed OK, but when I reboot to recovery it's still stock.

Same situation here...this solution isn't working for me, same problem, always Cyanogen based recovery...
After flashing new recovery, when you go to reboot, hold down Vol-Down and Power before it boots into the OS and it should load the new recovery. Had this problem myself earlier today, if you let it boot to the OS, it flashes back the CM recovery.

It works! I think it because of the dev settings into CM12S which force the recovery to be CM12S' one.
Thanks

I'm having the same problem, can someone go over start to finish how they fixed this issue?
What worked for me
I previously had TWRP installed, wiped and did the C12S flash but didn't flash SuperSu before rebooting. This removed TWRP and brought me to Cynogen Recovery whenever going into recovery mode (Vol Dwn + Power). This also removed the root from my phone. To fix this took some digging and I came up with the following solutions as long as you had TWRP installed at one point. If not then unlock your boot loader and re install. I named my TWRP File Recovery just to keep things simple, but whatever your TWRP Filename is put that in at #5.
1) Enter Fastboot Mode (Vol Up + Power)
2) On your computer open command prompt (Ctrl R)
3) Plug your phone in
4) Type the following minus the quotes
"cd desktop/android-sdk-windows/platform-tools"
5) fastboot boot recovery.img
This will boot your TWRP, you can then go to flash your SuperSu file and you're done!
im having this issue too : /
