Hi,
So I had my ROM rooted, and I was messing around with the Xposed settings. I flipped a switch, the phone rebooted and it wouldn't boot anymore...
So I decided to go ahead and just flash a new ROM (ARHD 10.2). To my surprise, when I try to touch the sdcard partition or the data partition, the phone automatically reboots. I wiped everything (except sdcard and data, because I can't touch them).
I tried to sideload the ROM with no luck.
My phone is a VODAP304, HTC One 32 Gb. I can use fastboot USB and the recovery (latest clockworkmod touch). However, like I said, I'm unable to flash a ROM because I can't do that from the sdcard, and if I try to sideload it, when installing, it instantly reboots.
What can I do? Am I bricked? I'm really worried as I need this phone in a week or so because I'm going to be away from home for a few days

Before I startת I tried to find this problem also search on Google and here but could not find any information about this problem.
This night I did not put the device to a charger because he had already 90% battery, so I left it disconnected,in the morning I got up I saw the phone is turn off, I tried to turn the phone light up and the ATT screen turn on,
I went and when I came back after 10 minutes I saw that the phone is still stuck on the "Galaxy S" screen.
I removed battery, changed, and it's still stuck.
I'm running version CM7.1,
The phone can get into the recovery menu.
Can anyone help me?
I do not understand in the android system and I don't have any backups of my pictuers...
Any chance to save the phone?
update: I search for a solution, and found on the CWM the option of "Mount USB storage" and I copied my pictures to my computer...
so now my new question is how can I get the phone to turn on again? only format and install new rom?
I can use CM7.2 zip file and install via the recovery menu?
you can go to cwmr and can do a data wipe which will uninstall all your apps and data but will not touch your sdcards
You won't lose your pictures on the sd card. If you are still stuck, try wiping dalvik cache from recovery

I have a similar problem. Like eidoll32, I did not plug in my cappy and when I went to turn it on the next day, I was only able to get a boot loop at the AT&T screen. Currently, I cannot get into recovery, but only download mode.
I originally rooted the phone with the Galaxy_One_Click_Root tool, and installed CyanogenMod 7.1 for the captivate, when CM7.2 went to RC1, I flashed that from CWM, doing a full wipe. Later I wanted to try ICS, so I flashed AOKP - captivatemtd - M5 b30, doing a full wipe (twice).
That's where I was when this happened, and where I am now.
I have a rooted HTC Hero (Sprint) and during preparations for upgrading to CM7 I ran into issues with ROM Manager.
First, I backed up everything (apps and data) via two different methods. I cleared davlik cache, and then performed a CWM Flash Recovery backup. Once that completed successfully, I sought out to apply the CM7 ROM. I selected it from the GUI menu, rather than rebooting into the Flash Recovery. I selected to backup everything and then wipe the data/cache. During the process, the phone hung (white HTC screen for over 10 minutes). I could reboot successfully after this, and selecting "Recovery" didn't work either. I figured my phone was bricked. But miraculously, it managed to finally recover.
The recovered ROM was a fresh clean slate. So, I installed ROM Manager and Titanium backup again. However, when I tried to reboot to the CWM Flash Recovery, or even try entering the CWM CUI menu from power up (by holding the HOME key), the phone hangs. Something is seriously screwed up with ROM Manager. I'd like to wipe it completely clean and start over, but everything I've tried results in a phone that hangs. I'm now thinking I should use a different program for managing the ROMs... but, being familiar with ROM Manager and seeing other people use it successfully, I feel determined to make it work. Any suggestions?
I would just flash an RUU and start from scratch.

I was able to recover.
What I didn't realize is that the first boot can take upwards of 20-30 minutes. I pulled the battery after around 15 minutes, thinking my phone had hung.
Anyway, when I selected "Recovery" again I left the phone alone and eventually I got a stock ROM again. Whew!
While ClockworkMod is fine for 2.1, when you're on 2.3 there's no question that TWRP is the way to go. I've flashed it to my phone (did "flash_image recovery [recoveryfilename.img]") from the terminal window and it's working great, far more extensive than ClockworkMod.
I am currently trying to reinstall a new ROM on my phone because all other ROMs have ended up deleted due to my stupid mistakes. However, everytime I choose install zip from sd card, mount, or factory data reset, in CW recovery 6.0.3.0 the phone shuts off and inevitably ends up in the bootloader. I have tried to sideload a ROM and then aroma installer loads up but as soon as i get past the settings and options and the installation begins it shuts off again and goes straight to bootloader. Can anybody help me with this. If I try flashing TWRP with the all in one tool it simply refuses to load period, so at least CW loads...
So today I was preparing to flash another ROM, so I connected my phone that was on a Sense ROM (OMJs v1.8) and began to delete folders on the phone from my computer. Once I did that I copy and pasted the latest gapps and CM nightly onto the root of my phone. All of a sudden my phone rebooted and would not stop, right in the middle of the file transfer. I did not flash this rom after it copied because the phone began to reboot mid-paste. However, I had recently just installed philztouch custom recovery so I thought that the recovery was the problem. I then installed TWRP through fastboot. Keep in mind I couldn't even access my recovery. Everytime I tried, the recovery screen would show up for a second and reboot. No matter which recovery I tried, my phone could not reboot recovery. So here I had a phone that still has my OS installed and in tact..but for some reason randomly rebooted out of nowhere, continued to reboot over and over again, couldnt even boot recovery or the actual OS. I had no idea what the problem was. When I finally calmed down and got recovery to boot philz touch, every time I tried to perform a simple wipe, the phone would stop mid wipe and reboot. Luckily I got recovery to consistently reboot and I finally got a ROM to install through recovery (not adb sideload). My question is has anyone else experienced this? And does anyone know why this happened?

Hey folks,
I have very strange problem with CWM. I installed CWM clean without ROM via All-in-one toolkit. So, when i turn up the phone, it boots directly into the CWM, of course. Then mounts and storage --> USB mount (or something like that) and I transferred Cyanogen 10. It doesnt shows any error any time i install rom. But when i restart the phone, it stays around 1 minute at the LG logo and then...CWM again...
I tried many times to do this with different roms, but without success. No matter of the ROM, it just boots CWM directly.
Please, help. I will very appreciate it.
Flash twrp with aio and download a rom that fits your bootloader
