what do you mean?
when i opened rom manager and choose the rom i wanted to install it asked if i wanted to wipe and backup or something but i know i check both. then i install the zip in the recovery boot menu and rebooted and no luck. then i tried another rom and wiped before installing and still no luck.

At the very top of rom manager, you must flash 2.5.0.1 recovery. Did you do this first?

So you flashed the clockworkmod recovery, booted into recovery and made a nandroid of your stock rom. Then, what rom were trying to flash?

This exact same thing happened to me. What I did to fix it was pull the battery, then wipe everything (dalvik, data, cache), and then rebooted. My phone was able to boot then.

I'm having the same problem with rom manager. I just rooted my desire using the unrevoked method, then ran rom manager. I did install the recovery mode first, then backed up the rom. How my desire is just rebooting to the htc screen. How do I get out of this?
Many thanks,
Joe

dumb question, but how did you wipe everything?

Hey, that's exactly the same issuing I'm experiencing now. Did you solve it? And if yes, how?
Well, a few hours later I solved it by restoring a backup and then booting went well. Also described in a thread on androidforums dot com (I can't enter the link here due to not having posted enough messages) .

I don't know if this helps, but I'm pretty sure nandroids are specific to which recovery they were created with, I read that somewhere a few days ago. If you did not have clockwork before, I would try getting the recovery you used to make the nand, install that recovery and then restore the nand. Then try the whole wipe everything and get clockwork and go to town. If you haven't tried RA/Darch 1.7 recovery, I would recommend it, I personally like it better than clockwork, it seems faster, and simpler to use.

Exactly What "Il Duce" Said Will Fix Your Problem, Same Exact Thing Happened To Me, What I Did Was Go Back To Previous Version Of Rom Manager Then Flash Alternate Recovery, AND Regular Clockwork Recovery, Should Be Good After That!

[Q] Flash recovery permanently in Legend???

Hi people
Today i've tried to flash ClockworkMod recovery in my HTC Legend via Rom Manager. After downloaded recovery, i've rebooted my device and an installation process has completed successfully. I realize that ClockworkMod Recovery has been installed and running well.
I reboot to recovery again and i see that CWmod recovery is vanished!!!
The original recovery of Legend is here!
What happened??? how can i flash a custom recovery permanently in Legend???
If it's possible, what recovery you advise me?
PS: My phone is rooted and i install custom roms via R4-Legend-Root tool.

If I well understood it is impossible to flash a permanent recovery in the Legend. But a temporary recovery is possible via Rom Manager! Right?

If you need to have the recovery any time in your phone and you don't need ROM manader, you can try this:

I have it on my SD card all the time it and it works great

[Q] Problem installing MIUI 2.5.25 using Rom Manager

Hello,
Today I tried to install MIUI 2.5.25 for my N1 using Rom Manager.
After it's installed it automaticly boots into recovery mode, so i pressed "reboot system now" but it booted into recovery again. So I had to restore my backup.
What could be the problem?

did you do a full wipe ? before installing rom maybe that why is causing your problems

Yes, I checked the options Wipe Data and Cache and Wipe Dalvik cache in Rom manager. Or do I need to do this a different way?

you have to flash it from recovery and do wipe in recovery find the rom you downloaded in rom manger in sd in download folder i think not sure but save that zip/rom in your pc then do full wipe then try installing rom again

That didn't help, it boots into recovery again. Anything else i could have done wrong or forgot about?

Okay, no I haven't asked yet. Yes I use CWM. Thanks anyway!

blackrose or non blackrose version?

I don't know anything about hboot, I just rooted my phone and than I downloaded MIUI and installed it. So I also guess non blackrose version.

As urs is a non blackrose partition its stock.so its not hboot prob..why dont ur try it from the beginning..using recovery..wipe all 2x then flash zip
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA

Still the same problem. Also if I boot into recovery I get a warn sign if it boots and than it doesn't starts recovery mode. If I install CWM again (using rom manager) I can boot into recovery without any problems. I had this a few times now. Could that be the reason?

If you shut down the phone, then hold the trackball and power, you should boot into bootloader (hboot).
You should then have an option to boot into recovery.
ROM Manager only allows you to reboot into CWM and no other recoveries, as far as I know.

Check out the ROM thread, I guess the latest MIUI needs special disk partition. Also post ROM related issues in the thread for quick and appropriate response.

I read about it already, and i wanted to post it there too. But I need to have posted at least 10 posts to post on the development page. But isn't it strange there is a non blackrose version if that one doesn't work anyway? And do you know anything about the warn sign I told about?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA

I'm trying to install blackrose now. I downloaded the latest version but when I launch the blackrose.exe it automaticly closes again. What could be the problem?
BTW, does my bootloader need to be unlocked for this?

No. its not compulsion for bootloader to be unlocked. might be due to bad download. try downloading again and turn off ur anti virus program while doing it.
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk

Thanks! Turning off my anti virus did the trick

Glad it worked buddy. the reason behind it is that Blackrose uses some exploit and it makes antivirus program consider it a threat, while it really isnt

HTC Raider 4G BOOT!!

Hi there,
I've used for a while with AT&T ROM without any problem.
Successfully rooted and CWM installed.
I tried to flash my phone by this ROM using CWM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2171741
However I failed. My phone didn't work with it.
Now, I cannot go into my CWM anymore. Although I reinstalled it.
I still can access to Bootloader. Select Recovery but it showed some scripts then it couldn't go further.
Anyone can tell me how to fix it?
I am frightened now since my phone is nothing more than garbage now I cannot do anything with my phone
Thank you so much

You're gonna have to relock your bootloader and run the RUU then unlock your bootloader to flash your recovery again, then you'll be able to run your recovery again. Also if you're S-ON, you have to extract the boot.img from the rom you installed and flash it before you install the rom, otherwise the phone won't boot.

Download another recovery to your computer...
Go into hboot... go to fastboot... connect via USB
Fastboot flash recovery (recovery name)
Reboot bootloader... choose recovery

Hello,
I did the way you said and it worked!!
Thank you very much.
Note: I think the ROM I flashed had some kind of weird code that led to the problem.
I used AT&T edition for my Bell Canada phone. RUU said failed during the process, however, that's when I reinstalled my CWM and it works again!
Thank you everyone for helping me with this question!

Get away from CWM...
Switch to TWRP or WCX

Ur welcome and like do what ringfool said CWM doesn't play well with this device. I personally use WCX but switch recovery cuz most of the time roms flash with errors is because of the recovery.

Yes! CWM really works badly on HTC Holiday.
WCX really rocks! It shows everything precisely and large enough to look haha.
Most of ROMs can be flashed using WCX. CWM cannot open some

TWRP for the win...Is that redundant? Flashed it last night, works flawlessly with the cm10 rom

Someone needs too post a really big sign somewhere in these forums that says DO NOT USE CWM I have seen at least 5 guys in the last month getting screwed because of it. :sad:

pull it from the rom zip(boot)and put it in your fastboot directory.

i have not had to install a rom since i got my htc evo 4g lte last year. this is a new step to me. im assuming this is done before installing the rom?

boy, i don't know at this point, you may have borked the radio, i would try to ruu, get back to stock and start all over.keep in mind if you run an RUU you have to relock the bootloader to do so. then you can unlock again and go from there.install recovery etc/

Also, I suggest using the revone s-off method from the revolutionary team. It allows you to flash ROMs more easily without flashing the boot.img separately. The link to the thread on how is in my web signature.
