htc nexus one stuck in bootloader with broken power button - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello my nexus one is stuck in Bootloader mode,
I power button broke, I tried all the fastboot commands that I know to get it to boot to rom and still a no go. any help?

on fastboot mode...
just do this on your pc(windows)
fastboot boot "yourrecoveryimage".img
When you get to recovery try to reflash your rom, copy the ZIP file to your sdcard(you can mount that storage on recovery), wipe dalvik and cache.
If this doesn't work, wipe everything and flash a good known stable rom.

anyone know any solution i dont want to flash 2.1 again through kdz
Format all partitions, except sdcard(obviously) clean dalvik cache, restore, clean dalvik again, and try to boot. it might take a while, but let's hope it at least boots.

If you are using Mur4ik's KDZ or program to resize partitons, it seems that system in backup is too large, so you have to restore original partition sizes.
Here is how to get your original partition sizes back.
Download the original size bootloader file from here.
Flash the file in fastboot using:
fastboot flash APPSBL appsboot_250_134_64.mbn
fastboot reboot
Then restore your recovery backup. If you want to remove fastboot & recovery, flash your recovery backup, then use SwiftBootloaderBuilder to remove fastboot & recovery.

First of all, make sure that you have Clockwork Recovery on your phone. Download the Android 2.1 recovery backup from here.
Put the 'signed_041011 183449.zip' on the SDCard (preferably in the root of the drive)
Flash the 'appsboot_250_134_64.mbn' file that I posted above.
When fastboot says 'rebooting....' Hold down home + power to enter recovery then go to 'install zip from sd card', then 'choose zip from sd card' and pick the signed_041011_183449.zip and select yes. When that finishes, go back and select 'wipe data/factory reset' choose yes and then select reboot. You should be greeted with Android 2.1.
Hope it helps.
Ok so far so good but where is that "SwiftBootloaderBuilder" i cant find it in the forum

Don't panic, mate - your phone is perfectly fine
The step of upgrading from CM10.1.x to CM10.2 will resize (enlarge) your /system partition.
So after the first attempt to flash CM10.2 zip, it won't be flashed, only the warning will come that this step will wipe your /data. It is normal.
Simply ignore it, go again to "install zip" and choose again the CM10.2 build and it will be flashed successfully this time.
Code:
adb reboot download

Many i9000 phones don't reboot to the download mode with the ADB command.
So instead of that, you can better use 3-buttons combo to run it into the DL mode.
Actually, I don't see any problem here- you don't even need the DL mode at all, your phone isn't bricked.
Just flash your CM10.2 and you're good to go.

Stuck on fastboot mode everytime i try a Rom

I'm getting stuck on fastboot mode everytime i flash derpfest rom , i've tried ''fastboot reboot'' i've tried to install ''twrp'' or boot to it , nothing works everything i try takes me back to the fastboot logo although the install of the rom was succesfull , i've tried with TWRP-3.3.1-8-siankatabg and also with regular TWRP and also with ORANGE FOX recovery , i'm on miui 11.0.7 EU version , can anyone help me
In TWRP, format data and then flash derpfest ROM. Take note that your data will be wiped though.

I did just that I placed the ROM in /tmp/ using TWRP file manager then I formated system and cash and data and then I did the data format by writing "Yes" then went back and erased everything a second time for good measure but still after flashing the ROM I get stuck on fastboot with no ability to boot to recovery or use commands like "fastboot reboot" the only solution for me that time is to reuse mi flash to flash stock rom which doesn't work but lets me boot into recovery which i use to flash miui 11.0.7 zip which apparently works just fine .
Also the basics are covered I made sure to allow usb debuging and update TWRP and all of that
1. flash using miflash
2.setup ur phone
3.enable dev optmake sure oem unlock too
4.going for twrp
5. wipe
6. flash ur rom
7.dont go reboot to system
8.format data then rebot to system
In case nothing else helps you can try to flash vbmeta first, following these instructions.

Stuck in recovery bootloop

Hello guys
I tried to flash my K20 Pro today with a custom ROM and somehow ended up with a bootloop (I wiped everything pretty much, Data, Vendor (which was probably the mistake, dunno), System, caches, all that). So, I went ahead and flashed the stock ROM through the MiFlash tool, and I can use the stock ROM. After that, I flash TWRP and repeat the process. Wipe, flash, reboot. And I get the bootloop.
Bootloader is unlocked as should be.
Anyone know what's causing this and what I can do to fix it?
Thanks in advance
EDIT: Just noticed that after this last attempt where it bootlooped into the recovery, everything's encrypted, don't know if that helps but it's there.
Format data

Had it running on the fastboot MIUI ROM, flashed TWRP, wiped caches, system and data. Then data again. Storage shows up in 3 "partitions" and I can't paste files to them. When I try to reboot back to TWRP it just goes to fastboot and after reflashing TWRP, it still will boot to fastboot instead of the just flashed recovery. Using fastboot oem reboot-recovery if that helps.
After the wipe, doing fastboot boot twrp.img will fire up a "Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error"
Format is not the same that wipe
From MIUI
Install TWRP.
Boot TWRP.
Go to wipe menu and factory reset.
Return to wipe menu and select format data.
At no point do you need to go into the advanced wipe menu.
Return to the main menu.
Go to boot menu.
Select (re)boot recovery to allow TWRP to correctly mount the newly formatted data partition.
Copy across the files you want to flash, then flash them.

Question How do i get Stock recovery to not replace TWRP when rebooting???

Tried a bunch of things to make the TWRP installation persistent, but it just goes back to MIUI recovery when i reboot from the system.
I'm using TWRP 3.5.2 by Nebrassy.
USB debugging turned on
Correct drivers installed
fastboot devices work Using minimal ADB and fastboot
I have the file renamed as TWRP.img.
Steps i followed:
fastboot boot "TWRP.img" - Correctly boots into TWRP
install the TWRP image to the recovery partition - Happens with no errors
Reboot to system - No errors there as well
Reboot to recovery - Goes back to MIUI recovery.
Can someone please tell me what i should do?
PS: Tried with TWRP 3.6.0 as well just now. Same issue.

Try again to flash TWRP dirty and if it's started don't boot with software. You have to boot TWRP again by pressing volume + and power button until you'll get vibration , afterwards you'll be in TWRP again, clear dalvik and cache and restart system via TWRP menu

Sorry mate that didn't work. Still going back to stock recovery...
Since i didn't find a solution to make the installation presistant, i went ahead and flashed Elixir with the temporarily booted TWRP. Then wiped cache and dalvik, flashed the TWRP image, formatted data and then rebooted. Now it works.
Edit: This method did something to my recovery. I can boot to system and recovery fine but TWRP isn't able to mount the data partition. So i'm not able to flash anything or root the device anymore.
I tried formatting data, no luck.
Then tried repairing the data partition. No luck.
Changed the file system to EX2 and then EX4... Nothing.
Anyone know a solution for this?

Then you've got to do a flash with stock ROM and miflash via pc

Would that re-lock the bootloader? And if so do i have to wait 7 more days for it to be unlocked?
I used the Disable-Dm-Verity-Zip directly in TWRP after installation. Worked without a problem.

Can you share the zip you flashed?
Also, any idea how i could get this fixed:

1. With MiFlash there is an option at the bottom of the screen to lock bootloader. Just make sure it is NOT checked, and you will be safe to use MiFlash without relocking bootloader.
2. When installing TWRP for first time, it is essential that your first reboot is straight back to TWRP - then it becomes persistent, and future reboots to recovery will be to TWRP. If you do not do the first reboot back to TWRP, the stock MIUI ROM recovery reinstalls itself.

The first ever twrp install i did, i rebooted to system by mistake but i reflashed twrp and made sure to reboot to recovery.... That was the second try. I think i may have tried at least two dozen times since that but it just kept booting back to stock recovery...
I think I'll run with this until the end of Jan and then redo everything from scratch...
