ive done that but its still bootlooping..... is there a way to use the terminal to run the htc ruu back to the phone

Try booting into fastboot with your phone connected to your computer and you should be able to run the ruu then.

SuperWipe v2 for BUZZ

hi guys, i have modified Ohsaka Superwipe V2 to work on our wildfires.
original thread and info http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=834812
I have tested it and it seems to clean out the phone and ext partition.
Flash from recovery, then reboot back to recovery. REMEMBER to do a backup of your cureent rom before using this, as you will lose everything.
Enjoy

Sorry. What does this do?

It's for formatting your phone and ext before flashing roms. Check the link in OP for more info

men, we are so confused with all those recovery stuff..
this looks useful though. all I have to do is flsh it from clockwork recovery and then use its benefits? As soon as I read your post I tried to find some instructions how to use correctly SuperWipe but I didn't find much. I am under clockworkmod 2.5.0.1.. I don't know if that's a prolem. So, after SuperWipe we firstly flash latest Radio, then Gapps and finally ROM?

Only flash radio if you need to for that Rom. This cleans out your phone in one swoop. This is meant to be better than any recovery wipe aswel as fastboot wipe.
Superwipe then reboot to recovery then flash Rom gapps etc

we can already clean everything before we install a new rom on wildfire im sure, is this really needed?

I know you can already wipe. No obligation to use it
Some roms can have problems when you only factory reset this solves those problems by wiping everything

[Q] HELP!!!

I'm new to this site and it won't let me post in the development section. I flashed cyanogenmod on my captivate and now it's stuck in a reboot loop. I don't know what to do! i pulled the battery, didn't work. I tried to put it in download mode, didn't work. it goes to the at&t screen, then the cyanogen mod screen, then to the recovery screen. it does this forever. and i mean FOREVER, it only stops when i pull the battery, then i start it up and it does the same thing. PLEASE HELP!! how do i fix this? i need a phone!!

How are you trying to get into download mode?
At what point in the install did you start having problems

Can you go into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache, then try to boot?
Or do you have any other roms in your card you can flash.
Does amonRA make a recovery for samsungs, or you guys gotta use CWM?
Edit: sorry, not sure what 'download mode' is. You mean you can't get into bootloader?
Edit2: sorry didn't know that. Know nothing about samsungs. Good luck buddy.
You guys can only use cm or miui?
Isn't there a rooted version if your stock rom in your subforum? Couldn't that fix the issue, if you could DL it to pc, then go to recovery, USB/Ms and move rom to SD card?

Cm7 nightly question

I have cm7 on my phone, recently I've been trying to flash a nightly on my cappy and after the install "about phone" still shows the old mod. ROM manager also shows the old mod as my "current ROM"
I've tried reflashing, and even downloading onto my computer copying it to my card and trying to install through recovery and get stuck in bootloop. Ive deleted old mods from the download folder and Ive also tried different nightlies and have the same problem. Any help is appreciated

..and you've done the basic clearing your caches, data and dalvik? You may want to try a fac reset. That fixes a lot of problems sometimes
.. for the future you should post in the cm7 q&a's. Even if it is a nightly

Yeah, Ive done the wipes and caches. I guess I'll try fac reset. Thank you for the help

Ok, I did a fac reset, wipe cache, dalvik. Downloaded latest build through Rom manager, did cache, dalvik again, and still have the same results. Any ideas?

That is pretty bizarre .. honestly I don't know what's going on here.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA Premium App

I know, my friends think I'm crazy. So I'm thinking I could flash back to stock and then start over? So, to do this I need to flash the stock Rom using Odin with repartitioning, correct? I'm assuming I can't use Odin jf6 one click because it doesn't repartition, or does it?

Yeah.. Odin one click JF6 does the repartition. I've flash back to stock a few times using that method and the last time being just a couple weeks ago. That is about your best bet. Odin back to stock.. get cwm and flash nightly. Its gotta stick then... you'd think

To flash a ROM in CWM:
1. Download ROM and move to your SD card
2. Reboot into by either downloading an app or by powering down the phone and then pressing Power and Volume down until you are prompted to wipe phone data. Press power button twice and you will boot into CWM.
3. In CWM make a backup (inside backup and restore menu)
4. After the back up wipe user data, cache, and dalvik (dalvik located in advanced menu)
5. Go to flash a zip --> choose zip --> choose the zip --> Select yes
6. After it flashes go back and wip data, cache, and dalvik again
7. Reboot
8. profit

I see you over clocked you phone. What app sis you end up using

I use setcpu. Free for xda users. Plan to buy it after the new year.
Sent from my VS910 4G using xda premium

Full instructions, from receiving the phone for the first time to Gingervolt:
1. BEFORE ROOTING, install any OTA updates. (Settings> About phone> Software Update)
2. Root. I used the latest SuperOneClick, with psneuter. (Zergrush doesn't seem to work after updating) Ignore the warning that says psneuter doesn't usually work on devices on 2.3.3+.
3. Use RevoToolkit to install CWM. DO NOT use ROM Manager, as it will leave you unable to leave recovery.
4. Get everything ready for flashing:
4a. Get Gingervolt and put it in your SD card.
4b. Make sure that the device has 4G enabled. (Settings> Wireless & Networks> Mobile networks> System select> Network mode: LTE/CDMA)
5. Reboot into recovery. RevoToolkit has a button for it. You can also hold Power and Volume Down buttons while the device starts up.
6. In CWM recovery, make a backup. (backup and restore> Backup)
7. Wipe user data. (Wipe data/Factory reset)
8. Install Gingervolt. (Install zip from sdcard)
9. Reboot
10. Complete initial setup.
11. ???
12. PROFIT
Enjoy!

Is there an sd card in your phone? Dumb question I know but I have to ask.

lol yea there is an sd card. don't think there's anything wrong with it and it's not an issue of not enough space on the card cause i still have like 14gb of room left on it.

What are you doing with that anyways I have never heard of anyone using it?
