[HELP] - Bootloop when trying to load CWM Recovery

Hi
I am new to this forum, however have previously had Samsung devices and never had any issue with CWM. I have a X715b (obtained via Vodafone NZ) which i recently updated to the Stock VNZ ICS ROM. After getting bored with the stock ROM I decided to look at custom ROMs. I want to install Insanely Cool ROM so went about finding the required steps.
After finally finding an updated root tool which would work for the ICS stock ROM I have now rooted and unlocked the bootloader. Here is where I get stuck.
I have HBOOT 1.28.0003 and when I flash the CWM recovery it all seems to flash fine, however after reboot when I try to access recovery I either get stuck on a white HTC screen (CWM Recovery 5.8.3.1) or it seems to keep the screen lit after the HTC screen and then eventually turns off (CWM 5.0.2.7)
Is there another recovery image I can try or do I need to update the bootloader in some other way?
Device: Sensation XL (X715b)
HBOOT-1.28.0003

Any help most appreciated

Amon ra is a different recovery. First time I flashed my old desire it kept getting stuck in a bootloop so I flashed amon ra and then cwm over the top and that solved my problem then..
Worth a look I guess. Hope it helps.

I wasn't sure. It was ages ago when I used it on my desire.
But as for as far as you know.. He can easily Google around and see if there is.
Any help is better than no help isn't it?

Thanks for the thought but Amon Ra is old and not for newer devices, any other ideas?

Do you know how to use adb? Try using the "adb reboot recovery" command. If not you can always try reflashing recovery.

Thanks for the reply
Just tried it again (Flash and adb reboot via unix) and much like attempting the install from SD within the clockwork mod app it loads the HTC splash screen and then just appears to turn off but is frozen so I have to remove the battery to reboot it.
I also just tried flashing the chinese boot.img and then it won't boot at all so had to flash cool sense boot.img which then works fine.
I also found a development touch cwm v 5.8.0.9 and that just freezes

If all else fails, flash a stock ruu, that will restore stock recovery, then try flashing a custom one again.

Thanks again, will try flashing a stock ROM. I have tried both (ROM Manager and via Fastboot) and neither has worked.
Will let you know how I go

Unfortunately I have not been able to find a ruu stock Rom for cid vodap022 and modifying the cid in another rom fails at signature check.does anyone know where I can find a Rom for voda nz?

Well its been quite a night of it, I found that it was HBOOT causing the issue with CWM and managed to find a chinese site which had a recovery image for 1.28+
I now am able to load CWM and can flash the Chinese ROM, however when I try to flash the ROMs I am actually interested in (Insanely Cool Sense & Total Senseless) I receive the following error
Error in /sdcard/<ROM NAME>.zip
(Status 1)
Installation Aborted
Can anybody shed any light? I have checked the md5 of both zip files and both appear to be ok
Regards

I have the same problem so i went to anzhi
i found this recovery 5.8.3.1 Touch
bbs.anzhi.com/thread-5117313-1-1.html
and i can flash it but when i try to flash the ROM (Insanely Cool Sense)
i got the same error message like you
so i went to anzhi again
i found this post
bbs.anzhi.com/thread-5182616-1-2.html
it's about s-off your SXL
then use fastboot flash RUU to degrade it to HBOOT 1.25
but after doing this, you have to change
system\etc\vold.fstab (open with text file)
(the last line)
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 33 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host
change to
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 34 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host
sorry for my bad english

Wrong forum, but try flashing a recovery the proper way using fastboot.

Thank you. I did get back into it using hasoons tool kit.
I Was reading that if you dl goomanager and install the recovery it offers it works, Can anyone confirm?

I've never had any luck with good manager. I've written it off. I use TWRP Recovery myself, which I believe is the recovery you're talking about? I judt download it directly from TeamWin's website.

I feel like a broken record....
In the apps and themes section there is flashimagegui... It will correctly flash kernels and recovery on s-on devices

Same thing with ROM manager. Its just screws up your phone

As Ess said, dl thru TWRP site and flash thru ADB tools. Works a treat

What ROM was it? Did you try to flash the boot.img instead of the ROM.zip? I didn't really understand your original post.
If you flash the Zip it should go through the whole Aroma installer, etc...

Yeah its buggy as hell sometimes, I think it helps to use the volume and power buttons to navigate through it.
If it crashes just force reboot to recovery and try again.

You don't need to flash boot.img after flashing ARHD. I'm using ARHD with a custom kernel and never flashed a boot.img once.

[Q] Vivid with CM 10.1 Stops

I've installed the CM 10.1 to my vivid, I flashed the boot.img using fastboot usb, and installed the rom via TWRP 2.4.4.0. before any install i used the all the wipe functions im suppose too.
When it finally boots it works for like maybe a 1 sec and then reboots. What did I do wrong?

Use wcx recovery in version 2.2 of hasoons toolkit. Wipe system, dalvik, cache, data, and do a factory reset all in wcx recovery then flash the rom then flash the correct gaps for cm10.1 or android 4.2.2 then go into the bootloader (advanced option) then flash the boot.img (fastboot flash boot boot.img)

Your device mobo is probably going bad and needs more power than usual to run it. Sorry. If i can get linux to boot I'll send a kernel your way to flash and see if it fixes the problem

Try overvolting the CPU, with an init.d script, that should stop it freezing up, init.d because you won't have a chance of doing it with an app

In the bootloader boot a recovery if you are s-on
"fastboot boot recovery recovery.img"
Sultans thread (android12345*) his kernel thread has details on how to do it
If you are s-off just flash this. This has higher voltages. Maybe itll help ya

Please send a kernal. Also, how would I flash it without S-off. Could this also cause digitizer issues? i've been seeing like a 10% line in my phones that spams touch now.

Please do I need to download any kernel to flash my HTC with cyanogenmod 10?

[REQ]How to flash this ROM on my HTC ONE?

http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.ch/2013/10/first-custom-rom-based-on-htc-sense-55.html
Hi Guys. This is the link for Android Revolution HD 30.0 for HTC ONE with Sense 5.5 and Android 4.3. I have an international HTC ONE with android revolution HD 12.1 by mike1986 and android ver 4.2.2 . I would be very grateful if any one gives a tutorial on how to flash this rom on my htc one. I am asking for a tutorial because last time (when flashing my previous rom) my phone got nearly bricked (no wifi , no storage were the least of my worries) . I managed to unbrick the phone somehow but this time i want a proper tutorial. PLZ anyone post this tutorial. I will give a thanks to one who posts it...(I have already downloaded Android_Revolution_HD-One_30.0zip file) And i have a TWRP recovery..

You need to unlock bootloader, install custom recovery, makijg a preliminary assumption you have done so. Download the file. It will be in the download folder. Once downloaded boot up recovery CWRM or TWRP, whichever you installed. Make sure you have a NAND backup of existing ROM yoyu are currently using, safety measure.
Wipe data/ factory reset via recovery
Wipe cache partition
Wipe dalvic/cache
Install zip from sd card
Search for Android_Revolution_HD-One_30.0.zip in download folder
Follow Aroma Installer Option
Reboot
Wait for full boot may take a few minutes, be patient
BTW if you experience boot loop which you shouldnt just hold down power button for 15 seconds. Once phone turns off hold down volume down and it will boot into bootloader.
From there volume down to recovery option and try again
