Bricked phone, urgent help requested!

So earlier I was flashing TrickDroid, and Aroma froze and crashed the phone while it was installing... CWM showed a screen that said root may have been lost, and offered to fix root. I touched it, and this got the phone stuck in a continual boot loop. I've managed to get into the bootloader, but this is after clearing the cache with the terminal command "fastboot clear cache", and I have to type "fastboot reboot bootloader" when the phone boots up (at the HTC logo) in order to even get into the boot loader... otherwise, the phone will try to enter recovery (to no avail). I really hope I did not brick the phone... any help would be great. Can I fastboot a stock image?

Reboot into fastboot and try to fastboot erase cache then fastboot flash recovery again. If you can get into recovery, just try to reflash your ROM or do a NAND restore. Otherwise, use the All-in-One toolkit to help you adb sideload a ROM(this will bypass Aroma's epic failure rate, too, btw).

Great, worked like a charm. I flashed a different version of CWM this time, that might have been the problem? Oh well. Thanks!

[Q] Can't boot into recovery HTC one

Hi -
Thanks for any help in advance. I'm a bit of a rookie round here, I've rooted and flashed my past 3 HTC phones but taken the easy route every time.
But today, I've used ADB commands to flash the revone binary and unlock and get s-off on my HTC one m7. It took me several tries, but it eventually worked (or at least said successful). So my HBOOT 1.44 says UNLOCKED & S-OFF.
So onto the next step. fastboot flash recovery recoverytwrp.img
...
Another success!
So, I reboot into bootloader and prompt recovery boot like I'm about to get HAM on twrp and flash some superuser files. It shows me a developer screen full of red print saying that it's booting into recovery, and then after a while, it just rebooted back into system.
It does this every time. I reflashed the image, I flashed the stock image, I tried the hansoon tool. each time I can't actually get into the recovery.
So this is where I'm stuck. Why can't I get anywhere with this?
EDIT & ANSWER;
Sprint phone needed Sprint TWRP image

This.
Just do evrything again until you finish installing custom recoveries. Before rebooting, erase the cache with "fastboot erase cache"

Gave that all a shot all over again. Still can't boot into recovery

Is fast boot off?

Use the original cable your One came with, go into bootloader power/vol - then open a cmd window
Now connect the One with your computer, don't use a USB 3.0 connection, and a different one then before.
In bootloader choose fastboot, that should change to fastboot USB
In cmd window point to your fastboot directory where you also copied the recovery to, I would try CWM touch for now.
Type cd c:\fastboot (or what your toolfolder is called)
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
That installs the recovery, you can select it in bootloader abd boot into it.

Did you try various recovery (versions) ? May be , you just have corrupted recovery image.

Try, remaining unlocked, go back to s-on (you can always take s-off again) and check your recovery (enter and flashing) under s-on.

Is that something I can do with the revone binary? To be honest, I have no idea how to turn security back on. I can relock it and that may be about it.
I stumbled upon another thread, shares a common theme as my issue, but with a different twist. Using a superboot.img as a rooting method instead of flashing it via recovery. It somewhere says that the boot.img needs to be flashed as well, however I can't find a decent boot.img to flash. The superboot tool seems like unproven territory right now.
Here's the other thread, I've leafed through it and found no determinable answer for my particular issue.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39852757#post39852757

Do not apply revone to return s-on!
Use fastboot by "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3".
Be convinced that bootloader is unlocked before return to s-on.
Regarding your issue: I suspect that a certain code in HBOOT tries to install TAMPERED flag when sees custom recovery, but isn't able to do it correctly because s-off (bypassing security) and a certain mistake or exception conducts to reset phone.

I've just skimmed through the posts and didn't see this mentioned
If you are still able to boot into the system, download either GooManager (for TWRP) or RomManager (for CWM) and use either of those apps to install recovery. Once done, you can use the app to boot into recovery instead of the fancy ADB commands or button presses.

So both that method through ADB shell and GooManager require root. Every rooting method requires recovery, so I don't have perm root yet.

You quoted me, but answered not to me.
Read a post #26 from my link above

Possible Solution
Hello I have the same problem and the solution was:
1. Settings - Energy- Fastboot uncheked
2. Flash Recovery usin one all-in-one-kit
3. Erase Cache 3 times
4. Unplug to PC, and load into system normal
5. Turn off phone - via stock menu NOT FORCE TO OFF pressing the off button
6. Wait 2 minutes, and boot into HBOOT - Power + Volume(-) pressing
7. Choose recovery
Ready.. May these work for you! Let me know

[Q] Trouble while flashing KitKat - Recovery gone

Hi folks,
I have a problem. I tried to flash SinlessRom GE Kitkat 5.1. It flashed allright, but then I got in a boot loop. It boots, but when the set up starts, and I see the screen where to choose the language, then device boots again (and it becomes a bootloop).
I interrupted the boot loop using Vol-down and power, but my recovery wasn't working. When I chose recovery, it didn't entered recovery but booted again.
Then I tried to flash a new recovery, but now I doesn't enter a new bootloop, but get's stuck at the white HTC Screen with in pink "entering recovery..."
I tried to erase cache in fastboot modus, but it didn't help.
Do you guys can help me? Any suggestions?

1- are you s-on or s-off, 4.4 is not compatible (at least for now) with S-On devices!
2- you need to "fastboot erase cache" after flashing recovery; personally i do it before and after, but the important part is after
3- why are you recommending "fastboot erase userdata", just wondering.

+1, s-off is required. I only recommend erasing userdata because I had a very similar issue, erasing userdata and a fresh recovery seemed to do the trick after no luck with simply flashing a new recovery and wiping cache Just going off past experience.

This did the trick:

flash twrp recovery (first I tried cwm)
erase cache
Then I managed to enter twrp recovery and flash a new rom.
Don't know why, but I'm happy again

look alot of people are having this issue it is a simple fix follow the directions step by step
Code:

as soon as you type the above command to flash TWRP we need to boot the phone into recovery before we let it boot to android we can do that via the command below.
Code:
adb reboot recovery
MAKE SURE THAT AFTER YOU TYPE THE FIRST COMMAND DO NOT LET THE PHONE BOOT TO ANDROID.
right after you hit enter for the mfastboot command type the reboot command it will boot into recovery. if not i would redownload the correct TWRP recovery for 4.4

What errors are the RSD and fastboot actually failing with?
When you're trying to do the fastboot flash, does "fastboot devices" actually show your device as connected?
-----Edit----
Are you sure that is the right version of the firmware? I'm waiting for access to the files from the moto site right now so I can compare the full file name, but I'm pretty sure you have the Maxx Dev Edition firmware file there.

You are THE MAN! Quick question regarding SuperSU.zip...Do I unzip it in windows and MOVE the 4 folders to the phone, OR do I only need to move the UNZIPPED SuperSU file to the phone? I am about to flash recovery and want to be sure. Thanks so much!!!

Boot into TWRP, open cmd prompt, type "adb push SuperSU.zip /sdcard" then hit enter, select install then SuperSU.zip.

Flashed TWRP entering "mfastboot flash recovery twrp-2.6.3.1-ghost-4.4.img" OK. When I enter "adb reboot recovery" I get device not found and nothing happens. This is stopping me from rebooting to Recovery. On the phone, I highlighted RECOVERY, hit the UP button, and it booted to Android.

I rebooted to bootloader again, reflashed TWRP, highlighted Recovery, hit UP, and the screen goes black and does not boot. If I press the power button, the phone will boot to Android. That is where I am now. Something must be up with my Recovery file?

OMG!!!!!!! The problem was my utter ignorance of a new device. I spent the last two days trying to boot to recovery using the up/down buttons or so I thought. I had no problems using the DOWN button...it was the UP button (I thought the POWER button was UP!!!) This is why I was not booting to Recovery...my Droid Bionic has two buttons on the side of the phone...its power button is on the top. I am sorry for being a pain everyone and I really appreciate all of your help! I AM ROOTED!!! :highfive::good:

Nexus 6 Stuck in Boot loop

Hey All.. my nexus 6 is stuck in a boot loop. I tried up dating to 5.0.1 and now it's boot looped. Anyone have any suggestions?

Try wiping cache in recovery.

I can get to recovery, how do I wipe the cache?

To get to recovery hold the power button until it shuts off then press volume down and power at the same time to boot into bootloader. Then use the volume buttons to choose recovery mode and press power.

Hi! Same problem here. Happened when tried to update to 5.0.1 using this guide:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img (I used a decrypted boot.img for 5.0.1)
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I didn't get any error during the installation. I only did step 1 and 2, and when rebooted before step 3, I got the boot loop.
Recovery mode doesn't work, it shows a "dead" android with a red exclamation sign. I can still go to bootloader mode.
Can you please help me?

Solved it flashing "cache.img".
Hope it helps anyone.

Why are you rebooting it twice while flashing? I've never rebooted it until it was done and I haven't had any issues. Maybe I'm just used to flashing older Nexus devices.

I asked myself the same haha. For no special reason, I was just following a guide, but I've seen other guides where you don't reboot until the end of the process. It's fast and harmless anyway.

Little different situation
Not sure what im doing wrong. my nexus was rooted for 2 to 3 weeks on android 5.1 . restarted today to only find myself stuck in a bootloop [ red green yellow blue ] nexus symbol continuously going, i booted into twrp and tried to restore my nexus to a backup i made after i rooted , but still stuck in bootloop , tried 1 more time to use my backup , but still in a bootloop , then tried to factory reset using twrp , and was still stuck in a bootloop , any tips would be awesome , thanks
EDIT: Think what put me in bootloop was making it where i need a password everytime i restart. just did it and seems some are having same problems .
EDIT 2: Well i got out of bootloop . appears i have also lost root . not sure what i did . after using twrp to install backups, format data , it finally restarted . im pretty positive the problem was caused by setting a restart passcode ! watch out guys ,
