i think that is what stock recovery looks like, not sure what you are supposed to do next but you are not bricked

actually if his radio isnt flashed right.......
leave it on that screen for a few minutes. if it doesnt work, try booting into bootloader. you can use your nandroid restore to fastboot the phone into working condition. if it doesnt.....i hope theres another solution..
can you see anything from adb logcat

press alt + l at that screen, it should show the recovery log (as well as shortcuts for wiping and rebooting).

I don't think the stock recovery has the g1 phone at the bottom. it just has a triangle and exlaimation mark iirc. does the image have an arrow going towards the phone?
if it indeed is the stock recovery, then yes, press alt+l to see the options.
However, if you had a custom recovery such as RA or cyanogens, then the 1.6 recovery from htc shouldnt have touched it.
what phone do you have? if its rogers, it *COULD* be bricked.
can you get into bootloader? Cam+power? can you boot into the rom? youve given hardly ANY details that could help use pinpoint the problem

ok thats a step forwards, are you trying to root? what thread/steps are you following?
i installed it because i wanted to make somthing with the language
but now i can enter my recovery menu or skip gmail reg
when ur on the screen with the triangle and exclamation point in the middle, press "ALT + L" and see if you get options if you do then your in recovery and everything works. Just reinstall cyanogen 1.4 recovery. Im not exactly sure what your trying to do. but see if that works.
this are the options i get
alt+l- toggle log
alt+s-apply sdcard:update.zip
alt+n- wipe data/factory reset
when im trying alt+s it does nothing shold i try farctory reset and wont it delete the option of sim free?
do you even have an update.zip on your sd? I also suggest that you just boot up regularly and switch to cyanogen 1.4 recovery as its easier to do well, everything. Doing a factory reset wont delete anything on your SD, HOWEVER it wont change the current state that your in.
how
how do i switch to cyanogen 1.4 recovery
and i dont have the update.zip on my sd card

Just so you know, what you are seeing IS the recovery. As been said above, press Alt+L to show the text.
go to the developement thread, to find out how to root if you havent done that already and then look for cyanogen 1.4 recovery. In that thread it will tell you how to install the recovery.

can not enter recovery mode..

hi,
my tattoo can not enter recovery mode after pressing [END]+[HOME], it's only show the "!" sign in a triangle and phone icon.. but it succesfully enter HBOOT mode my presing [END]+[VOLUME DOWN]
it has been rooted with m6..
can anybody explain what happen with my tattoo?
many thanks!
Did you flash custom recovery image? Try this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=649276
coolbits.. nope, my tattoo never been flash before, it just been rooted with m6 method.. so, is it normal if it's not able to go to recovery mode by pressing [END]+[HOME] when my tattoo has not been flash before?
thanks
If you didn't flash the custom recovery image, yes it's normal!
can you see something thar not exist???.....drugs are not included in the question....xD
sorry for my stupidity... but i wouldn't ask any question if i knew the answer..
from memory the "!" sign in a triangle and phone icon
is the default splash screen and you just have to press some other button for menu
alt + L I think ... ill edit if I have time to dig it up running late for work and have my own flash issue atm
edit unsure about an tatto
3.A yellow or red triangle with an exclamation mark (!) will be displayed on phone screen. Press and hold the Volume Up and Camera or Power buttons simultaneously to bring out the system recovery menu.
that might work
Triangle
If the triangle is showing, then you didn't sucessfully ported recovery img.

Not dev. related question..
BTW I think you should install ROM Manager (with Clockwork recovery)
Then use the nandroid backup or flash another update.zip.
To rollback to original 1.6 use the WWE RUU
I cant rollback to original 1.6 becouse its says error when i tray

cant get into recovery

i cant get into my recovery, i have a recovery image, im on cm7 rc3, i tried flashing to the stable using rom manager, but i get stuck on the htc screen, i take out the battery, try flashing the normal way, and im still stuck on the htc screen, what can i do? i deleted gapps off my sd card and put the new one in, but i didnt flash right away, i tried flashing cm7 stable first, dont know if thats what caused the issue. thanks for your help
It puzzles me you say you can't get into recovery but you posted you tried flashing the rom threw rom manger and the " normal " way. I'm thinking the normal way is from your recovery. If you can get into recovery try this. Make a nandroid of your current rom. Then do a full wipe. As in data,cache & dev-cache. Then flash the rom and see if it boots up. If it does. Reboot back into recovery and flash the gapps. then reboot. See if that works. If you cant actually get into recovery just post back and either myself or fellow xda members will try and help you out.

i cant get into recovery at all, what i wrote was i tried flashing the cm7 stable from rom manager first, but it got stuck on the htc screen, then tried the normal way which is holding down the red button and clicking on the reboot-recovery option, and still got stuck on the htc screen. these are the only two ways i know to get into recovery, and holding down the volume down button and the power button, which didnt work for me either, basically i cant get into recovery. i thought it was because i deleted my gapps and didnt flash the new gapps file as soon as i put it in my sd card,but im not sure if that is the reason.
With power off
To boot into recovery you
Press & hold the red power button & press & hold the home buttom untill you see your recovery. Or Peres & hold the power button then press and hold the volume down button. A white screen will appear. When you see the white screen press the home button and wait. Your recovery should appear. If you just deleted your gapps zip from your SD it would not effect your recovery at all. I think your just caught in a boot loop and your not booting into recovery the correct way. But I'm not sure.let me know if this works. What recovery are you using???

Pull battery, replace battery.
BEFORE POWERING ON DEVICE, press and hold HOME key.
WHILE HOLDING HOME KEY, press and release power button.
WHEN HTC LOGO APPEARS, release HOME key.
You should now be in recovery.

If I'm not mistaken can't you tell rom manger were to look for the recovery you want to flash?? If so and you have a copy of the recovery on your sd you can flash it.

I am having the same problem...except I never actually got Cyanogen flashed. I rooted my phone. Installed SuperUser to fix permissions. Installed Rom Recovery and flashed the Clockworks Recovery. Then I backed up the Rom and when I went to boot into recovery to flash Cyanogen, I just get the white HTC screen. I get the same issue with manual recovery (holding down home and turning the power on). I can boot normally, but I can't restore my backup or use any other recovery features. Any ideas?

Anyone know what that means?

Could just be a bad download. Redownload it and try again. Or it could mean its the wrong type of file. Or the zip needs to be signed.

Hi guys,
I am have a international htc one 4.2 stock (never rooted), now when ever i select the recovery option in the bootloader i get a green symbol and after some time a red triangle appears with exclamation mark and the phone reboots after some time.
My phone came with 4.1 and i updated it to 4.2, never rooted the phone what so ever.

That IS stock recovery.
if you want to get to the menu, I believe you have to simultaneously press POWER + VOL UP + VOL DOWN briefly (you're probably gonna have to try a few times to get the timing correct.

yeah any time in stock recovery (green or red), you may need to try several times to get to the menu (like the other post I linked)
Well, thanks to this post I entered the recovery.
I made a lot of combinations until I got the good one. You have to press VOL UP + VOL DOWN buttons together and a half second later press power button. :good:
I'm at this point and I get this quick error message then the phone reboots. What am I missing? I'm stock on my way to root. I'll see if I can catch that error message. Oh, it happens when I try to do the 'install from phone' option, or card, I tried both and I get rebooted as described.
Okay, something about 'check id failed' and more but it comes and goes so fast. One more time...
Okay, "invalid operation... rebooting...". Also, before all that it says something about missing cw file too.

It was life saving for me Bro :angel:. I had no idea whatsoever to solve this. If you Don't mind, i have a kind of tricky question here, i had gone back to my stock rom that is sense 5.5 with android 4.3 because i liked the camera feature (the slow motion option and the sequence shot and the group photo edit, i really loved it:victory which is missing after the OTA update to sense 6 and android 4.4. Is there anyway i can retain those stock camera features, hope you understand what i mean. It would be very grateful if it is possible. Thanks in advance, and thanks again for saving me from the recovery issue.

I don't have a HTC One M7 since 2014... but, I can help you with that question.
No man, it's not possible, it's just possible to download an old stock rom with Android 4.3 and Sense 5.5 to have the camera app back, otherwise there is no any other option.
i cnt do it...can u explain????

cant Use my touch screen!!?

So i installed the rooted stock download on my s-on SprHtc one m7 and the install was seemingly successful, but now my touch screen isnt working. i cant unlock the phone and when i press the volume keys i cant touch the slider, or slide the drop down menu down. when i try to restart the phone it hangs at the "1" count indefinitely it seems. any ideas as to what went wrong? to make matters worse, i usually back up my data on twrp and then port it to my laptop to save space, but now my laptop is having trouble recognizing my phone.

Sounds like you flashed a really old rom.
Flash a rom that is based on 3.xx.xxx.x or higher and make sure you are using the latest version of twrp.

Yeah that rom is old there was a Touch Panel driver update between 1.31.xxx.x and 3.04.xxx.x
btw the latest is 5.05.651.x so that will tell you how old the rom you flashed is.
You should be able to hold the pwr button until the lights stop flashing at that point it will be off or it will try to reboot.
If it's off press pwr until it starts to boot and hold vol down that will take you to bootloader.
If it reboots hold vol down to get to bootloader.

It's been a while but I think it will. If you can manage to get to bootloader you can update twrp.
Maybe try pwr + vol down to reset just keep holding both.

Sideload very rarely works from what I've seen.
You could adb push the backup but I'm not sure if it would flash I've never tried.
A last resort is RUU and start fresh.
i managed to restore my phone,but im having trouble getting twrp to recognize that my backup is in the folder. i copied it back and it doesnt show up in recovery. is there anyway around this?
