i was running sensehero 1.4, i decided to try out wesgarner's beta WGBuild9 for him. it booted and all, there were some bugs. i replied to his thread and then restored my nandroid from before hand. it just sat at the initial boot logo, not either of the animations, the carrier one. i waited quit a while and then pulled the battery. tried a wipe and reboot, no dice. tried fastboot erasing system, data then reflash, still sits at boot logo. no i am watching the logo while waiting to see if a different rom (cyans latest stable) will boot.. any ideas? recovery and fastboot still work fine.

If you can get into bootloader, or recovery, you're not completely bricked.

u r not bricked if u can get into recovery and fastboot, just perform your nandroid restore, wipe and u should b good, u might have to pull the sd card and reboot without it
Since you have so many posts I'm surprised you would post in the wrong forum. Anyway since your coming from a hero rom you need to follow these instructions http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Main_Page#How_do_I_upgrade_to_the_latest_CyanogenMod.3F and that includes doing this line "Download the Android 1.6 Recovery Image (it has "-ota-" in the filename): ". Even if you have done it before you must do it again.

What does post have to do with anything?
There were some issues with nandroid that were fixed in the new version, but you must wipe before installing the backup since the ext is also backed up.

You should have wiped and what method did you do to install the wesenger rom?
If you didn't flash the 1.6 recovery image then that's your problem. It's not the same thing as RA's or Cyan's so your not overwriting those recovery images. You must flash it first then the rom all without rebooting.
I've been getting these problems a lot lately for whatever reason. Anyways, I fixed it every time by wiping, then flashing the official HTC 1.6 OTA update zip. You'll probably have to dig a bit for it, since the links appear dead on the HTC support site. From there, you can flash a custom ROM no problem.

When you search, there IS an option to give results as either threads or individual posts. I suggest taking a couple minutes just to play around with the advanced search screen... it's surprisingly powerful, but most noobs don't use it. The little drop down Search is useless in comparison.
I installed the senseHero but now the phone part, it hangs on boot
even if you reinstall a new firmware hangs on boot

did you do a complete wipe before installing?

You should not need to RUU just to install a rom. I would say start over again. Flash recovery, wipe data/cache/dalvik/boot/system, flash ROM, flash gapps.

Well before you do try this.
Back up all you data. Then format your sd threw your pc. Then format it threw your recovery. Then reflash your current recovery. Then setup your partitions if you had any. Then replace all of your data back on your sd. Then do a full wipe as in data,cache,dev-cache and sd-ext. Then flash a fresh rom of your choice. If that works you can just restore your nand. Hope this helps.

Ah okay. I would then flash a custom recovery. You can access the bootloader correct? What method did you use to install the rom? Clean flash or wipe is when you erase all the phone's system files, leaving a blank slate for a new rom to be installed on, and should be done before installing a brand new rom to avoid any issues.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2568662
This is the link to the recovery image I used, it's the latest clockwordmod touch recovery. Very easy to flash as long as you have fast boot setup correctly. Once you have a working recovery you should be able to try a re-flash.

Was the recovery still stock or was a custom one flashed? Which process did you follow to root the phone? Since you can't access the recovery at the moment is suggesting it is stock. A failed rom install shouldn't corrupt recovery

I used the method described on this french website : phonandroid.com/tutoriel-comment-rooter-son-htc-one.html

I'm not sure, since you have tried to flash another rom, a factory reset might not solve the issue. Trying shouldn't brick the phone but I can't say for sure, sorry!
The method looks similar to the one I used. Could you try following from step 6? but using a different recovery.img. I used the clockwokmod touch from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173863

Could you send me a link to the rom you flashed? Try downloading a different rom. As you can't boot a ROM your only option may be to use ADB to push a new ROM onto your phone's storage.

It may have been a bad download. There isn't really any reason for it to not work, although it does say on the page it "You need TRWP 2.6.3.3 custom recovery!"
Not to worry, you can flash it in no-time. Ok so just as before, just flash a new recovery (again) and use the latest image from here: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7/
This should allow you to install the rom as the developers intend. It is strange though, i've never encountered a rom where a specific recovery was needed.

Hello, I recently unlocked my bootloader and flashed a recovery. I flashed a new ROM, TikTak 4.42. After flashing the rom from CWM it started and went to a constant blue screen.
I flashed a new recovery via fastboot and flashed the rom again, it started but when it got to the locale selection and restarted after 2 seconds. This would repeat over and over. I decided to do a wipe, but inadvertantly wiped my storage too.
I pushed another ROM to the device via adb and flashed that via CWM, same problem as the constant rebooting. I tried to flash a RUU from fastboot but got a "Signature Fail" error.
My phone has access to the bootloader and recovery. My storage is empty so I have no roms on my phone. In mounts and storage it always says "mount /system" and "mount /data". Could this be a problem with system?
If you have any questions please ask, I'm quite new to all this so may not have included everything necessary. If anyone can help me fix my phone totally, I could make a small donation thorugh paypal
Thanks in advance
