I am running the latest herodeck rom and was wanting to try a few of the new roms out, TeamHeroC-2.3.5-01SEP-V2.zip and the newest WildHeroC rom. I do a wipe and load the roms and I never get past the HTC logo. I have waited for about 8 minutes and nothing, still stuck at the logo screen. Both roms do the same thing. Luckily I did a nandroid and was able to restore back to Herodeck. I will appreciate any help or ideas. And I am using Darch's recovery.
Hi,
U need to read the opening posts of each ROMs discussion. They each have their own ways to prepare for the ROM.
But most of them you'll need to wipe more than just factory reset.
So all I can say is take the time to read at least the first few pages of each ROM.
Good luck

Thanks for the reply, I always wipe everything before flashing a rom or doing a restore so I don't think that is it and I always read the post so that's probably not the problem either. But hey thanks
My similar thread
Not that this will necessarily help you but I had the same thread (and therefore issue) posted in this sub forum.
I'm not getting on to you about any repost, just makes me feel a bit better than I am not alone. Let me know if you find any solutions

Hey all, I need some serious help for my Mytouch3G. My MT3G just stays at boot screen all the time now every time I flash a custom rom. The last rom that worked for me was Super D 1.6 blk and other roms before that. I don't know what's wrong now, I tried using my Nandroid restore, wiped everything, other roms. I even tried re-rooting, so I had to go back to stock (which worked so I know it's not bricked).
I know this is the G1 Q&A but I since MT3G is compatible with most roms I posted here.
Also, I can boot into recovery and fastboot. Please help? All I want now is to go back to Super D 1.6 .
Try re-rooting the phone.
you probably dont have the latest radio ,and (or) spl, also make sure you wipe before flashing.
Do you have apps on sd card? If you do - you may need to reformat your EXT, regular wipe doesnt to it. And yes, you do need correct SPL and radio.
Good luck.
I would also try posting in the correct forum next time. This is the Dream forum, I don't care how close they are in specs and such, this is the dream forum. There is a magic forum for you to try out next time

You should wipe via Amon_Ra when going rom to rom and wipe before using your backups.
There is no reason for foul language either
Hi there, sorry about the dramatic title, not sure what kind of help this need,s other than the general kind. It's my first post here and I'm asking for help already. I know you must hate it when people do this (I do on other forums haha) but I kinda need your help.
Basically, I bought a motorola milestone of gumtree (kinda like a UK craigslist) which was rooted with CM7. Everything worked fine when I got it, but today, when I tried to download stuff from the market, it gave me a force close message. The stock music player also needed to be force closed. I googled it, and did the usual restart the phone, take out battery etc... which didnt work. On the motorola website they say to do a factory data reset, which didn't appear to work. I then tried doing a manual reset, through the recovery screen I think, I pressed the factory reset button, but now my phone hangs on the motorola logo. I'm quite technical when it comes to most things, but i'm new when it comes to rooting. I presume doing that also wipes the ROM? I think/hope that all I need to do is put a rom on the SD and do the update from that, but I'm really not sure.
Thanks for any help
p.s while the phone is GSM and works with my SIM, the guy I bought it off got it from Korea, don't know if that makes a difference to anything
install OR (fufu or nadalback's , there is a link in cm7 thread), go into dev forum.
wipe everything from or and reboot. if that doesn't work try flash another rom. and yes you will lose data, you already did with the factory reset.
if you have cm7 you already have the device rooted.
edit: follow advice from moto, only if you have stock rom, and now you don't

Cheers for the input. Sorry to sound thick, but I'm new to rooting, so I'm not familiar with how to flash roms and stuff like that, If you could clarify it what you said, that would be awesome.
Thanks again

Cheers for that, had a quick skim through and it looks promising, only thing is I'm not sure what one I need to do to get it to boot. Do I have to install openrecovery? Do i need to revert it back to stock? Do I need to install a custom rom or is a combination of the 3? I'm sorry if these are basic questions, but I literally have no idea which one to select.
Also, if the phone was bought in korea, but is set to english, what SBF file do I download, a UK one, or a international one?
Cheers

Right now, is your phone running CM7? If so, place the newest OpenRecovery on your SD Card and place the ROM you want in OR/updates. Because you are from the UK, you should try flashing a UK sbf if you need to revert to stock.

Hey guys, I had dug out my old HTC G1 and was trying out the new roms. I was running on 2.3.4 I believe and before flashing anything I had made a Nandroid backup. After flashing couple of Roms i didn't like them and I tried to flash a specific one recommended by someone and after flashing my phone was stuck on the G1 screen and nothing after that.
So I went back into recovery and tried to flash the rom again and it didn't work, then I tried another rom which had previously worked and that one didn't boot up either and finally I tried to restore from Nandroid and that didn't work either, phone is still stuck on G1 screen as of right now.
I am attaching a picture of the Hboot and SPL etc if thats any help, but if someone could help me out it would be great I would hate to have this phone just be a paper weight.
Thanks again!
EDIT*
Guys the two posts that are in reply to this thread by me are from a different thread where I had originally reported my concerns, I have included them in this thread so in case anyone else is running into similar issues they can possibly obtain something useful from them.

If you were following the full directions in the banana bread thread then you would be at least attempting to use cmtd, but not a requirement. Yes you should update radio and SPL, as well as flash amonra recovery, no need to unroot. Just search out ezterrys thread in the developers section titled 2708+ update, and follow all steps there, even will find a link for amonra.
Search out cmtd if you want to learn more, not required hardly ever but can be nice. Also you can repartition SD when ever you want, no unroot needed for that, if you have further questions I suggest not leaving them in this unrelated thread as respect to developer
Edit, I see you already have another thread in the works, post any question there and someone will help, chances are the cmtd did work when flashing bannanabread which would make sense if you cant restore nandroid as partitions changed. Also note you need to do a full wipe, preferably a super wipe or fast boot -w in between ROM flashes, and yes even when restoring a nandroid

1. Flash this: http://www.mediafire.com/?upf6u8m0zb70ag5 then full wipe and reboot
http://www.mediafire.com/?a3ay0gxvfj9y8
2. flash radio 2.22.27.08, reboot
3. flash hboot0013d, reboot
4. flash recovery-ra-dream-v1.7.0-automtd.zip reboot
make sure you have partitioned sdcard (swap, sd-ext - I recommend ext4)
then follow instructions from ROM topic
I'm sure it will work

Yea the links are down in that thread and banana gave me the links for specifically running bananabread rom, but im a bit confused that if i do use the automtd is that going to cause problems if I decide to change the rom from bananabread?
also there is another link that someone posted above (rooting guide in sense) and I was wondering if i followed that would that resolve anything...
going from having too little information now i have too much information and am confused as to which path to choose, right about right now I wish i was just prescribing a patient some medicine lol
thanks for your continuous help and i hope you can help me figure this out!
If youre around in a couple hours (3hrs?) Ill be at a computer and can get you the images needed and walk you through it, other wise just make sure you read before flashing firmwafre.

I am trying to flash the Viper Rom to HTC one sprint phone and it doesnt seem to take. I go through the necessary steps with rooting and getting to install the viper rom and after all is said and done it accepts the rom and i go to a reboot. Now after the reboot its sits on the HTC white screen for about 20 secs before restarting and doing the same thing over and over again. I have tried to i guess flash this rom more then once (three times to be exact), and the outcome all have been the same.After not being successful with flashing the rom, i go back to a back up that i made a few hours before trying this (whew). I hope you are following me to get this.
I have seen the videos on how to flash rom, i have rooted my old s2 and i do know that it is a very different phone. i am just looking for some help on this. i wish i could take a video of what is going on but the only camera i have is the one on my one....
if there is anything else i can answer please ask away since i think i explained it pretty well for being pissed. thanks for helping/looking.
Download the Rom again, you may have got a bad download.

Hey everyone, I stupidly tried to flash the Galaxy S5 experience 4.4.2 Rom to my ATT Note 3 SM-900a. I was using an older X-Note Rom and wanted to update my phone's firmware. I flashed it to the stock rom and now I can only boot into Safestrap. Is there anyway I can easily restore the device back to being functional? I can still see all my files on the device when using file manager on Safestrap, I just can't see the device on my computer.
Anybody have any idea what to do here? I've been trying to figure out what to do for the last 6 hours
You may get a better response if you use an informative subject line. That's the courteous thing to do in any forum. It lets people see at a glance whether your topic is one that they either want to learn about or can contribute knowledge to. Your subject line gives readers no clue what problem you're having. As a result, many readers won't bother to click on it at all.

If you can still open safestrap try loading a new rom.
Also please re-read the forum rules. You're only aloud to bump your threads once every 24hrs. Not every 3 hours. I know it's hard not to because you're in a panic. But it's the rules. We have to be patient.

I could get into SafeStrap but I wasn't able to load roms onto my device because it would not show up on my PC. Luckily I was able to find this site: http://www.androidrootz.com/2013/10/how-to-unrootunbrick-at-galaxy-note-3.html
If anyone else is impulsive enough to get into this situation, that link saved my life. I will never mess around with the stock rom again without fully reading the instructions.

I would just odin back to factory rom, that should get you back to the start....
I would say take the SD card out and load the X note zip and wipe and reinstall. Then once you have a working phone try again this time may want to create a backup first
