While installing a rom using aroma when prompted to reboot no matter what I option I choose the screen goes to black. If I selected to reboot the device will reboot, but if I don't the screen will stay black until I reboot with adb. Additionally when flashing some roms with aroma, specifically DigitalHigh's L rom, after exiting aroma the device gets stuck on the HTC logo for a few minutes, than boots into the rom normally. This happens on every boot.

I'm guessing that you are using TWRP for recovery. You need to go into the advanced settings in TWRP and adjust the screen timeout. I have mine set at max, but you can also shut it off. As for long boot times, are you saying a long boot time after flashing a rom or on every boot after the rom is already installed?
Make sure that you are on the latest firmware.

On every boot after the rom is installed. I have tested it with several ROMs, and it seems to be only happening on DigitalHigh's L rom. I think it may be due to my TWRP not being up to date.

I have a problem when I reboot into recovery. The recovery that I am using on my HTC One S is TWRP. When I go into the bootloader and go to recovery, it will boot up to the HTC screen with red text on it. Then the phone will restart and boot normally. Then I would have to go to bootloader again and go into recovery and then it goes into TWRP. I don't know why I have to do this twice. I am not sure what I have done wrong and I can't find a way to fix this. Also I've been trying to flash CM10 and on the first boot, it stays on the animation for a long time. And one last thing. Root checker says I am rooted but when I use Apex Launcher and use a stock HTC widget, it says that it doesn't have root permissions. So can anyone help me with this? This is also my first time on XDA. Another problem. When I restore from a backup, it boots up fine. But then it stays on the lockscreen for couple of seconds and it restarts again. And when I rooted my phone by flashing SuperUser, It didn't say upgrading android. Was it suppose to?
Bump. I too have this problem with booting twice to get into recovery and can't find any answers. Thanks.
I have the exact same issue. I experienced it with both CWM and TWRP. Also when I reboot from recovery, the device seems to reboot twice, and it gets back to normal with a dialog asking if I want to send an error report to HTC. I was beginning to wonder what I have done wrong.

I would suggest downloading the newest twrp recovery IMG and flashing it with fastboot.. As far as flashing cm 10 make sure you flash the boot.IMG through fastboot before you flash the ROM..and wipe both caches after installation.. If you get stuck at boot animation go back to recovery and wipe both caches again...are you guys all using the all in one tool... Or flashimggui..?

Hi all,
I have TWRP recovery. I was in the middle of flashing carbonRom v1 when I realized I forgot to flash gapps. Flashed gapps, which must have been a bad download. Phone boots up but greeted by "unfortunately, Setup wizard has stopped" and will not let me pass. Also, no power down or reboot to recovery options are available. Power button will not turn off screen (broken?)
Questions: How to manually boot into TWRP , and if that wont work, whats the next step?
Thanks!
EDIT: phone is also not recognized by pc due to debugging settings not being able to be accessed

Access recovery: Turn off your phone (shut down or pull battery). Then hold Volume Up, Home, and Power until TWRP boots up. You may need to plug your phone into a charger in order for the button combination to work.
If all fails you could always Odin back to stock and start over.
When in doubt, Odin out.
Flash the stock ROM and wait for it to boot, then re root it (should take 2 minutes the second time around since you know what your doing, hopefully.) And then reflash your ROM and definitely red download gapps, if you have anymore issues re-download the carbon ROM.

I rooted my MT4GS a few months ago but stuck with the stock ROM. I decided I wanted to try out the CyanogenMod 9.1 ICS ROM. I followed the following steps:
1) Installed ROM Manager.
2) ROM Manager indicated a newer version of ClockworkMod Recovery and I installed it (5.0.2.7).
3) Using ROM Manager, did a full backup of the current ROM. All went well.
4) Using ROM Manager, downloaded and installed CyanogenMod 9.1.0 stable-doubleshot. I specified to wipe the data and cache partitions. The installation seemed to go normally.
When the phone rebooted, it was stuck at the logo screen. Had to remove the battery to turn it off. Tried a couple times, still the same.
Since I had the backup, I decided I would use CWM to restore the old ROM.
When I boot into recovery mode, it shows CWM 5.0.2.7, but whatever option I try to choose from the recovery menu, The screen just goes blank with the CWM logo in the middle and nothing else happens. Hitting the power button returns me to the menu, but no option works, even power down or reboot. It just goes back to the CWM logo again and I have to remove the battery to shut it down.
So, I thought I would try using fastboot to flash the ROM again. When I boot the phone into the boot loader and select fastboot, then plug the phone in via USB, nothing happens. Windows does not see the phone and ADB or fastboot don't see it either. It's not a driver issue, as the computer is still setup from when the computer was rooted and I connect the phone all the time with no problems.
When the phone is off and plugged into USB or the charger, I still get the charging light, though it goes off after about 10 seconds, then comes back on and cycles like that.
Is there anything I can try at this point, or is my phone bricked? It seems like I followed all the steps correctly. Is there an update.zip I can put in the root folder and see if it picks it up?
Any help would be appreciated.

Ok, after rebooting Windows, I was able to get the USB connection to the phone to work in fastboot. It seems I missed the step described in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1508556
which states with S-ON you must flash the boot.img separately. I did that via fastboot and the phone boots into cyanogenmod now.
However, I still seem to have the issue with clockwordmod recovery. As long as I do the recovery functions from rom manager, everything is fine, but when I manually boot into the recovery menu, I get the same behavior of any choice from the menu just blanks the screen except for the CWM logo and nothing happens. I tried reflashing the recovery image using fastboot, but still no go.

This is solved also. Seems on the MT4GS, the trackball is the selection button. The power button appears to only be a back button.
What a thread! Two nicely phrased problem definitions, two well explained solutions, and all from the same guy. Sorry we weren't able to help directly, but you obviously found the answers you needed elsewhere in the forum. And you updated the title as well to show it was solved. Thanks.
Just used TWRP manager to flash the new 2.8.0.1 wlv build to my m8 and now it just bootloops into recovery everytime I reboot. What do I need to do to resolve this issue. thanks

Do not use TWRP manager to install recovery. Use Flashify.
TWRP manager flashes to the wrong block. It flashes to mmcblk0p43 where as you need to have it on mmcblk0p44.
What version of firmware are you on. You will need to update your boot image.
To get out on the bootloop I had to install a Rom which was viper Rom 2.4. When I boot my phone, it still shows the twrp splash screen with the red text at the bottom. Doesn't even show boot animation. Seems like it freezes then home screen pops up like nothing's wrong. Any way I can get my HTC splash and aninmation back. Tried flashing a new boot animation but won't take. Is it still trying to boot to twrp.

Like other person said. You flashed your recovery to your system. You need to go to boot loader an fastboot recovery so it goes where it is supposed to. Then enter recovery via bootloader so you r really in recovery then flash your ROM an it will take care of your issue. Always fastboot recovery to avoid these problems.
I did the same thing through TWRP manager, and reflashed recovery through fastboot, restored, works fine. Thanks for the fix

Are you suggesting that ROM/magisk installation interferes with the bootloader? In my opinion, this is impossible. Just press Power for a long time to make sure you've turned off the power, and run the standard bootloader entry procedure.

Its not working .. When I flash this ROM first time everything was working fine I remember I can boot into recovery mode .. This ROM some times crashes and reboots .. It was automatically rebooted into recovery (I saw recovery is not seandroid enforcing in the left top corner of Samsung boot logo) then it reboot back into system without showing up twrp splash screen ..
Is there anything wrong with twrp bcz I flashed latest twrp before flashing the ROM..
I tried several times to boot into download /recovery mode using hardware button but it still reboot back into system

If you can boot the system, then try adb reboot bootloader, and if that doesn't work, then on the system uninstall magisk by restoring the original kernel and then try adb reboot bootloader.
