CWM wont boot up. PLEASE HELP ME

ClockworkMod recovery wont boot up AT ALL
It wont let me in my recovery settings.
Pressing the down volume button and the power button gives me the recovery option, but will do the same exact thing.
In fact the second I go to it from ROM manager the screen goes black and then takes me to my HTC screen and just stays there.
I cant even go back to factory settings.
I would like to just restore my origional phone/settings and just forget about this whole flashing rom idea.
PLEASE help me. How do I get to my restore so I can go back to my old settings???

2 options you can try.
1. Copy the ClockworkMod.zip to the root of your SD card and rename it PG32IMG.zip and then boot into HBOOT and let it reinstall CWM.
2. Boot into HBOOT and use the FASTBOOT command to flash the CWM recovery image.
Not sure which one you had used before, but it would be worth trying the other option.

or even easier, install ROM manager from the market and use the one click option install CWM mod from within that.

Thanks...I used Android Flash 1.8 to flash the recovery back on my phone!!! And went from there. Actually the **4EXTRecovery_v2.1.0_RC1_vivo** is better to use for recovery and flashing in my opinion...Thats what I used..
Thanks for the reply guys.

[Q] Help!!! Bricked my phone!!!

So I Have a rooted CDMA HTC Hero rooted with WildHeroC RC4. I was cleaning my phones memory up and decided to get rid of some apps. Then I decided to replace the HTC Sense home screen with a windows home screen just to have something different. I backed up the last set up I had using clockwork mod. When I went to uninstall the HTC Sense home screen I used titanium backup pro. When I pressed one of the options to (i think it said) "permanently remove or uninstall" the Sense home screen the hero went into some recovery thing showing a box with an android next to it and an arrow coming out. There is a yellow progress bar at the bottom that gets to about 1/4 the way finished and then starts over completely and does this repeatedly. I tried taking the battery out and putting it back in and then press the power and down volume but it just goes back to the same screen. What happened and can I fix it???? Please help!!!!

Ok first off YOUR PHONE IS NOT BRICKED. If your phone was bricked then it would not come on at all. If your phone turns on It's not bricked. Now do you have a nandroid back up ?? Also what recovery were you using ??? And do you have adb setup ??
#Root-Hack_Mod*Always\

I don't think I have a nandroid backup. And I was using clockwork mods recovery or at least the default one that comes with it. I think I do have adb set up. What do I do? Please Help!!!

You should definitely check to see if you have a nandroid backup stored some were it will help you with your current issue. Also when you refer to the default cwm did you mean that you downloaded rom manger and flashed a recovery??? And are you s-off or s-on ??? Also do you have adb set up ?? And are you able to boot into hboot?? You do this by
Powering off the phone.
Then press and hold the volume up key.
Then tap/press the power button.
You will see a white screen. That's your hboot screen. To get you back up and running you can find a HERCIMG.zip of cwm recovery or Ra's recovery, drop it on the root of your sd "as in not in any folders" and flash it threw hboot if your s-off. If not then you can look here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=958968
For how to flash using fastboot with s-on. Or if you have adb setup you can search for the recovery.img of cwm or Ra and flash them threw adb. Once you have your recovery back you can perform a full system wipe by wiping
cache,davlik-cache, and data/factory reset. Then either restore your nandroid or flash your rom of choice. I think your recovery is screwed up and also your rom I'm thinking is screwed up as well. If you can't find the recovery zips or img's let me know. Hope this helps.
#Root-Hack_Mod*Always\

I think I have S-off. I also think I have a Nandroid backup (I backed up my rom and all my apps and data using rom manager)- is that nandroid backup? When I press the power and down volume button it goes right back to the loading bar and NOT to the menu. I can not boot into hboot. As for the recovery I did load it from Rom Manager. So what do I do. I have adb loaded.

You have to boot into hboot to find out I'd you have s-off. Via my post above. What happens when you try to boot into hboot??? Also have you tried holding the power and home button at the same time for at least 15 seconds to see if you can boot into your current recovery?? I forgot to ask you that in my other post. Also no that's not a nandroid however I believe you can restore that zip if its a zip that rom manger made with cwm.
#Root-Hack_Mod*Always\

I have tried holding down the home and power button but it does the same thing. It will not let me boot into hboot. It goes strait to the screen showing a white box with an arrow coming out of it and a android standing next to it. There's a loading bar at the bottom that keeps loading up to 1/4th then goes back to the beginning and it does that over and over again.

That's not how you boot into hboot. That's for recovery. To boot into hboot do this.
Power the phone off.
Press and hold the volume up button.
Then tap/press the power button.
Just tap the power button don't hold it.
Only hold the the volume up button. Then you should boot into hboot.
#Root-Hack_Mod*Always\

I did what you said (Hold up volume and pressed (not hold) the power button) and it still does not go through hboot.

What happenes ??
#Root-Hack_Mod*Always\

It shows the HTC screen for a few seconds and then It goes strait to the screen showing a white box with an arrow coming out of it and a android standing next to it.

[Q] Stuck on Htc Logo and can not power off

Hi Everyone;
I unlocked my phone for flashing custom rom. After unlocking i reebooted it and was normal. Then i flashed cwm via htc one toolkit. It was successfull as well. Then i go to cwm and made factory reset + wipe cache + dalvik cache. Then i go to install zip from sd card but i could not find my rom file. Thought, it was deleted while unlocking device. Then decided to reboot phone again to copy rom file into the phone and reboot.
But, when i rebooted phone from cwm, it stuck on HTC Logo( Quietly Brilliant screen). Waited sometime, but nothing happened. Then i tried to power off it and boot into bootloader or recovery. I press and hold power button but it does not respond anyhow. When i am holding power button ,back and home buttons are blinking but nothing happens. Almost five minutes i waited as holding down power button but phone does not power off anyhow. i tried all methods like vol down + power, vol up + power and both volume keys + power. But really nothing happens, just blinking back and home buttons. That's all.
I can not simply power off device. :crying:
I also tried boot device via fastboot commands but it says "waiting for device" means computer does not recognize device.
Guys, i need an urgent help. Please...

just keep trying to reboot via holding power or power+vol down. if it doesnt reboot after 30 sec or so let go then try again. if that doesnt work you will have to wait for the battery to die. once you get to bootloader use all in one toolkit to erace cache. then boot to recovery and you rom should be there if not boot back to bootloader and sideload rom

First thank you for your quick reply. Unfortunatelly, power+vol down does not work at all. Maybe i tried 50 times.
Anyhow, after battery die. How can i boot into bootloader. I mean, can phone be charged again in this situation? Also, even if i manage to boot into bootloader or recovery how can i put custom rom file into phone. Actually, i did not use sideload or whatever you mentioned before.
I am serouisly confused now and don't know what to do.
Anyhow, as you said, firlst i need wait to battery die i think. Then i will report back whats happen.
Thank you again btw.

yes your not the first person with this problem. hold power+vol down to get into bootloader. press power button in bootloader to get in fast boot mode. use all in one toolkit to erase cache and side load rom. i recommend all in one toolkit because it automates the process. just select the option then follow on screen steps

Good to hear that i am not the first person That means somehow there is a solution i beleive. Still waiting for battery die. even i had 50 percent battery at the begining but still it holds on I never say again htc battery is bad
I exeprienced that stucking on boot logo several times before with my other htc phones but holding power + vol down/up worked always. This is the first time for me that i faced with power button can not power off device.. Well, ,i hope i wish i can handle out this problem. Definetley with your help.
Regards,

I am having the same problem and don't know what to do :crying:
Today I just got my One. Unlocked bootloader, rooted, flashed Android Revolution rom. Everything worked fine for a while... I wanted to reinstall the rom because I wanted to change some options in the installer - I did not wipe because it was the same rom (big mistake I guess!!). After making the installation option changes, when it was done it proceeded to reboot but now I am stuck in a white HTC logo boot loop hell... (with the red text at the bottom that says "this build is for development purposes only" etc). Holy crap I never had a phone that I could not remove the battery. I cannot get this back into recovery or ANYTHING, it just keeps looping... computer recognizes it, no problem with drivers or anything it just doesn't stay connected long enough (because of the constant looping) to be able to use the toolkit.
PLEASE any advice?? Can't even shut it down omg. Do I have a $600 brick here? :crying::crying:

Did you read the other posts in this thread? The way you do a "battery pull" on this phone is to HOLD the PWR + VOL DOWN button for ~15seconds. Your capactivie buttons will blink, too. On my device, it took exactly 15seconds to reboot. There have been some reports of some phones that get so stuck that you just have to wait until the battery dies and charge it back up.
Alternatively, if the computer is recongizing it, try to adb reboot recovery to try and get into the recovery.

hi again. this morning my battery finally out. Then i put my phone to the charger and started it in fastboot mode( that is a good new) Then i left it for 20-30 minutes to charge a little bit for flashing custom rom.Then i went to recovery and started adb sideload. Sideload was succesful and finally came to aroma installer of trickdroid. I chose my installation options and started to flash rom but process was frozen on 10 percent. It was saying unmount system, unmount cahce and both of them has notification as "already unmounted". But installation was not going on. Then again i tried to go back fasboot mode again by press and holding power+vol down but unfortunatelly lights are blinking but nothing happens again. I think i need to wait to battery die again.
Isn't it quite weird? Why power+vol down combination does not work for me anytime? So, do i need to wait for battery die in every frozen? Do you have any ideas or comments ?
Do i need to go back to stock first ?
EDIT : Battery was out again and i tried once more. This time installation (trick droid) was successful but it frozen at the end this time. And unfortunatelly i can not restart (power+vol down) it again again Holy crap, i am really pissed off with this problem.

O..K...Finally, i managed to start my phone and now it works... Especially thank you skinsfanbdh for your support.
But still i don't know how to solve button configuration problem. But anyhow i think i won't need quite sometim to use it I hope someone can find a solution for that later.

Guide me with steps please

What should I do if I can't even get to the boot screen? I tried holding down the power and volume up buttons, but it just restarts and goes back to the same HTC load screen, what do I do????

Soft Bricked. Help Please.

Okay so I've been around the block and back when it comes to ROM flashing, rooting, and the like, but I recently installed the ElementalX kernel on my Htc one and now it won't boot. Black screen. I've tried booting into recovery, but all that happens is the HTC logo comes up for a bit and then boom. Black screen. Help please.

How did you try booting into recovery? manually? try it through adb as seen in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1853159
If you can get to recovery that way, you can restore from a nandroid backup or sideload a rom to restore to and see if that helps
You can also try holding down your power button while holding your phone directly under a bright light for around 30 seconds. If that doesn't work, try holding down the power and volume buttons together, again under a bright light until your bootloader screen appears.

Hold down power and volume down until the phone boots into recovery. Or as the person above said try adb reboot recovery while the phone is booting up.
You will need to download a working kernel or rom and push the file to your phone with adb command. i.e. adb push rom.zip /sdcard/ .. once you have the rom or kernel file on your phone, you should just install it via CWM recovery of TWRP. I would first try to just flash a different kernel that works so you wont lose data. make sure you are flashing a 4.3 kernel for 4.3 rom.. or GE kernel for GE rom.. or sense kernel for sense rom etc.. if that doesnt work.. you will likely need to wipe data and start fresh. I wipe my phone constantly and it isnt really as big of a deal as it seems. it takes prob an hour to set everything up and you wont lose pictures, music or video.. just text messages, app logins/data and desktop icon settings unless you back them up which i do before installing any kernel, rom or mod. hope that helps.
if you can get into fastboot you can try to "fastboot reboot-bootloader" or "fastboot reboot recovery"

I had a similar problem with my phone.
What I did was instead of trying to get into recovery, I just went to fastboot and flashed the recovery image again and it work.
You may want to try that. (Flash the custom recovery again).

He cant do that, dont try flash recovery, your bootloader is locked, it wont work.
Hold volume down and power button, you will see home and back flash at the bottom, just keep holding till your phone goes off, then hold then volume down only as the phone restarts, should take you into the bootloader.
What did you do to get it stuck in a boot loop ?

I seem to have a similar issue. The problem is that I do not have enough time to select recovery (nor any other option) from the bootloader menu. The phone reboots again before I can choose and confirm my selection. Any pointers?

You have bootloop in the bootloader? If yes then you have a serious problem, probably hard bricked.
