Hello everyone!
I just got a nexus one with cyanogenmod 7 mod on it. i tried to remove it from my phone, but when i tried it took me to the start up menu with the blue,red, yello, green (x that is formed...) ive tried clearning stoarge, fast boot, and recovery mode. However, each time it has failed to fix it..
Please help me!

idk.. iwatched a youtube video regarding it. and now im stuck at the boot menu with all the choices and when i try to do any tasks it says that the process has failed..
really if you want help you'll have to figure out what you did.
peoples can't help if they don't know what you did or how you got there.
only thing I can recommend is to use fastboot and install recovery image (that's if your bootloader is unlocked).
can you at least turn the phone off even by battery pull method and power it back on, see if there's a "lock" symbol that's unlock when you boot up
Passimg back to stock...
there is that lock that is unlocked..
see i deleted some stuff that was hooked to the phone like blackmarket, and folders with nothing in them.. and then i tried to reboot the phone. i cleared cache, wipe data/factpry reset, apply update from sd card, clear storage.. and it continues sending me to the main screen
Go read the wiki, you can use passimg method to go back to stock or you can fastboot a custom recovry and flash a new rom.
The wiki will have more informations for you.

how owuld i get a new rom onto the phone if im stuck at the boot menu?
Flash a custom recovery such as amon ra or cwm using fastboot.
Put rom file on your sd card
Boot into recovery
Flash the rom
Reboot

Read the Wiki, "unroot/restore" guide. It's all there.

I think i bricked my phone by fallowing this tutorial.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3874647&postcount=406
It happened after flashing the spl.
My phone will not go past the white "t-mobile g1" splash screen.
thank you for reading.
Damn, another brick? Did you make sure you had a PVT board and not the DVT-1, DVT-2 boards? It's a known problem with the Special SPL that it pretty much bricks DVT board phones...at least so far. (check by booting with camera+power if possible, board type is shown on the first line of text)
Can you boot using home+power? Are you just stuck at the Splash screen? If so, after about 10 mins the screen will change, giving you an triangle error symbol. At this point push Alt+L. This should give you the recovery utility, where you will have access to wipe (you should prob do one) and reflash a rom.
Of course this is all assuming you have root already.
i dont know if i actually got root i fallowed some tutorial on that too today i can do both of those boots but dont know how to flash anymore updates with my phone stuck like this

Ok, so what you need to do is this:
1. Wait for the error message //remember it sometimes takes 10 mins or so
2. open keyboard, hit Alt+L //this will toggle your phone to the recovery utility
3. If you have root, you may have a recovery utility that says "JF version 1.43", if not you have the stock recovery utility
4. If you have root, you could try to DL pretty much any rom although I might try the Ion rom for its stability and simplicity //there are tons of instructions for flashing a new rom
5. If no root, search in the Dev section of the Dream forum for an OTA ( Over The Air, ie. stock) rom. In particular, search for Dreaimg.nbh, and read the instructions for reflashing it. This will help you gain root.
6. reboot, and enjoy (hopefully)
If none of that works, you can find the "Bricked G1's" thread on the Dev section too. I think your prob out of luck, but it's possible someone has/or is coming close to a fix.
re flashing ill let you know the out come
lol you didnt brick it since u can access the recovery image.
anyways what happened to me yesterday, i flashed latest radio, the latest spl and it wouldnt boot. i flashed a new system image but still no boot (t-mobile screen). I wiped the system (data partition) from recovery boot, and reflashed with a new system image, worked ok... so from what i get, u need to wipe / reflash system, if you upgrade spl...
is by using a card reader on a pc the only way to flash a different img if this happens to you?
my phone is in root and i'm on the same g1 screen. if i take the battery out i can boot to recovery mode but my only options are alt-w and alt-s. i've tried wiping and reflashing with the same spl img and it's not resolving anything.
I have a Mytouch 3G running test 7 on my phone, and i just installed the clockworkmod rom manger. After, installed it i wanted to flash a new rom, so flashed the clockwork mod recovery, and when i tried to install the new rom from the sd card, it keeps on getting stuck on the mytouch screen, and nothing happens. How do i get into the recovery screen? thanks
First: This belongs in Q & A !!!!111
Which ROM did you flash? Maybe you had to wipe before
right now, i'm running cyanogen test-7, but when i go into the clockworkmod rom manger app and pick the flash rom from sd card, it just says it has to go to the recovery, and then my phone will reset and it would just get stuck on the mytouch screen. So, i just pull out the battery and reset the phone again, and i realized if i press the end button, it will go the rom that is already on the phone. I'm i suppose to push some buttons or something to get to the recovery screen?
No it should flash the rom you select and reboot the phone to boot the new rom without keypress needed.
maybe the wrong device was selected when downloading the recovery image? Try reinstalling clockworkmod recovery from rom manager.
Mod edit: not dev related, moved to q&a
I have the same problem.
I downloaded and installed Rom Manager from the Market and it has completely screwed up my recovery (I can't get into it at all). I tried flashing Amon's again (through Rom Manager) and it still doesn't work.
HTC G1. CM5.07 test 7 (trying to go to stable!).
Your recovery has been corrupted, you will need to flash it through fastboot.

Yes thank you. I erased recovery partition in fastboot then reflashed Amon's.
Working now.

Connect to your PC via USB, and from the command line issue "fastboot erase recovery" and then "fastboot flash recovery filename.img"
More on common fastboot commands here can be found on these forums, i'm not allowed to post links.
i connected my phone to my computer but nothing on my computer pops up. only the new hardware wizzard pops up. what do i do from here? im i suppose to get a adb popup? how do i set up the fast boot? i'm so confused..thanks
some one, please help..i want to be able to flash new roms in the future...thanks in advance
Can I sugges that you try this sticky thread at the top of this forum board.
It contains all you need to know on who to set up fastboot and how to use it - there are a couple of tutorials on it if you read through the thread.
CM 5.0.7 for Dream/Sapphire introduced a bug in flash_image. It causes recovery flashes to fail. It has since been fixed in the latest test of 5.0.8 I believe.
Man i have the same darn bug cant get back into recovery for nothing, and i dont have a pc to fastboot i have a non intel based mac so no adb or fastbooting, i have been doing fine for forever without adb or fastboot but is there any way around this one, i need help bad, im on HTTClay Superbadv1.3 and it has all sorts of bugs but i cant nandroid or bart or flash any rom without recovery, can someone please help!!!
Also is there another way to erase the recovery partition?
I apologize in advance if this same issue has been replied to elsewhere. I'm in kind of a unique situation and couldn't find an answer anywhere.
I'm got an N1 with 2.3.6 stock ROM, rooted. Recently I downloaded Titanium Backup PRO and while attempting to integrate dalvik cache to ROM, my phone rebooted into a bootloop. I'm assuming this is a bootloop. I get the colorful splash screen, it freezes for a second of two, then continues on, and on, and on....
Is there a way to get me out of this loopwithout having to wipe all my data, so I can backup all my stuff before I flash a custom ROM?
Everything I see about bootloops, mentions unlocking the bootloader and wiping all your data. I've seen downgrading using PASSIMG and loading stock rom. I'd really just like a simple way to get out of this loop hell and get my phone back up. It's in teh ship now getting it's power button fixed.
Thanks in advance
first thing i do on bootloops is pull battery
if no go pull battery and then pwr on by pressing pwr and trackball at same time--you can then get to recovery and maybe wipe dalvik and cache and reboot
i have never used TB for anything other than backup/restores, so can't help with dalvik integration
You might be able to fix it by wiping your cache from recovery.

Thanks for the advice! I'll give it a try as soon as I get my phone back from being fixed.
Hey guys, I hope you can help. I got my phone back with new power button, Yay! When I try to boot into recovery, teh Nexus X logo comes on for a moment and then I get a white triangle with an orange exclamation point. Do I need to use ADB to try and go to recovery and wipe my cache? I've never installed a recovery image. Do I need to do that or should there be a stock image already on my phone? Am I SOL?
One more thing that might help. I notice that when I go into HBOOT, the phone searching for 4 images from my SD card and can't find them. They go by too fast to write them all down but I think some are PASSIMG, PASSDIAG, etc. Again, do I need to load a recovery like clockworkmod on my phone first and then go into recovery to attempt to wipe my cache?
I get the same passimg all the time--no problem
If your phone came back from repair, you are probably unrooted and hence the triangle. At least that is the way I remember it, but has been two years since I rooted
If that is comfirmed by someone else, you wil need to reroot and install a recovery
A good time, if you haven't, to install android sdk and root/install recovery the right way and have full adb/fastboot features
there other ways I am not familiar with
does the lock show unlocked on the screen, they could have relocked bootloader
the wiki has the instructions, just have to navigate to the htc smartphones and N1
jus to make sure that if u still got root. install su checker app from play store and confirm.
if not root using SUPER ONE CLICK ROOT.
flash recovery (4EXT is good) www.4ext.net
do a backup and then flash the rom u want

Thanks I'll check. I only had teh power button fixed and not by HTC so I doubt they unrooted it. I'm still in a bootloop but I can use superoneclick still, so I'll give that a try.
so what I'm trying to do is wipe my cache without wiping my data. I don't think my bootloader is unlocked. Am I screwed?I'm in a bootloop, so I can 't install anything to the phone. I probably could put a recovery image on the SD card, but if my bootloader is locked, I'm guessing that won't work. I'm rooted. When I go to HBOOT, the phone looks for passim files and doesn't find them, then when I choose recovery I get the white triangle. I've try to flash a recovery image through ADB but I get an error, failed to load image. Again, is that a bootloader issue?
I'm almost at the point of just wiping my data and hoping I can get it all back somehow.

You really know nothing huh. The triangle is the recovery. Press power button and volume up at the same time, it will the show you some options like wipe cache.

Did you miss the "stuck in boot loop" part?
sorry,
meant that the triangle is your stock recovery--
you install recovery thru fastboot not adb
i would still, if you haven't, install android sdk on pc-unlock bootloader (fastboot oem unlock) and fastboot recovery--all in wiki
i think it was mentioned--holding down pwr and tb will get you into fastboot mode--phone connected and usb debugging selected on phone
you'll just have more flexibility with flashing roms etc and getting out of trouble
Ok, so i upgraded htc vivid to new ics through official ruu.exe whatever file that is. From there i unlocked bootloader flashed boot image and Paranoid 4.1.2 rom. Phone was great until today when i started to move music files from pc to phone. would shut down and restart by itself......every five minutes or so. Now, if i turn the phone on at all it is constantly in this boot, run fortyfive seconds, reboot again, dreadful cycle. So now i am trying to get back to stock if i can. i first tried to flash a new rom, cm10 nightly to be exact. NO LUCK! still boots into paranoid and dreadful reboot cycle continues. Now, i am looking to go back to stock but when i run "fastboot oem lock" fails and phone remains "unlocked" in fastboot ui. What in the world do i do? I read very thoroughly, have even had to learn to push my zip and img files through adb because my sdcard or internal_sdcard wil not mount in recovery. Recovery is not CWM or TWRP but i can not remember which it is
"RA REVAMPED
Build : Made for WCX ILLUMINATE SERIES by GINM"
blue lettering.....
any help would be greatly appreciated.
:crying::crying::crying::crying:
Note.......Vivid runs allot longer when transferring files from PC. Has been running now approximately 4 minutes no problems. Files still moving though....i will wait and see what happens after file transfer completes.
Yep!!! Just shut down again...but definately runs longer when transfering files...very confusing to me....
You must have the WCX recovery. What RUU did you flash exactly? If you could give me a link to it that would be great
Official att ruu.

my phone is running paranoid android though from this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2029534
it is having a problem wioth the sd card i beleive. When i attempt to go to gallery is shuts down. when i go to music it shuts down. when i try to uninstall juicedefender it shuts down. Excited to get a response and look forward to getting some help thank you!
Also let me add.... i have tried a full wipe sdcard and internal_sdcard included but each time i try all contacts photos screen widgets and my user specified settings remain intact on phone. i would imagine that after this full wipe i would have a fresh clean phone. NOT THE CASE! Very weird
Might try flashing a diff recovery (TWRP) and wipe install, see if that works. Then you can go back to the WCX and test that again.
ok tried cwm recovery from fastboot to no avail still stuck on previous recovery. phone wont stay on long enough for goo.im to download or run twrp recovery. i really have no clue what the issue is. I also downloaded tapatalk was able to use it for about 2 inutes then phone shut off rebooted itself and tapatalk is no longer installed. i am stumped! No help either...........:silly:

Maybe you have a crap battery...
Maybe your sim card isn't making good contact...
Maybe your external SD card is borked...
First... try removing your external SD and boot...
Second try removing your sim card and see if it boots...
Finally... try another battery and see if that fixes it to the point it stays on...

No matter what I do, my G1 stays stuck in Recovery (ClockwordMod v2.5.0.7). I reset everything and nothing. My SD Card is good and formatted correctly. I cant even flash anything. When I take battery out or try to reboot it goes back into Recovery. HELP!!!!
Hopefully you just have a sticky home button, forcing you to always boot to recovery
Try finding the proper flashable zips for radio and bootloader, normally I would say never flash firmware in recovery, but if its not hardware fault this will be your only other options
