ok this is something very strange, and i'm in a hurry right now. first of all, yes, i installed adb and fastboot mode is enable, yes i'm able to connect to adb (through wireless tho, i don't know what's happening with this stupid xperia), i'm able to connect to fastboot mode when connecting usb and pressing volume up, yes, phone is rooted, yes i know how to enter recovery mode by hardware, that means power button + volumen button a few times (i've done this years ago with this same phone), it should go into recovery mode (different from safe mode), and yet once again, unable to go recovery mode, i'm scared right now, i really don't know what is happening to this phone, i have tried absolutely everything i had on hand and searched every solution possible, yet here i am, desperated to seek for a solution :crying:
edit: i forgot to mention i know how to enter recovery mode from command shell, going through adb and typing adb reboot recovery, but is just passing by and jumping that process and going directly to desktop :'( please help
Maybe recovery somehow deleted from your phone so Try to reinstall the recovery again.This sometime happen if your phone bootloader is locked.

Use this XZR recovery installer to install recovery in your phone(need computer).Or use flashify or any other flashing tool from Google play store and download this TWRP 3.0.2 stock recovery img to flash if your phone bootloader is unlocked.
thank you so much, you saved my life dude is not exactly the original recovery mode, but is something :laugh:

Hi,
So I finally got my first error. :crying:
I did a reboot from an app called quick reboot to recovery, and now I am stuck in CWM bootloop.
The sad thing is that I went into recovery to do a nandroid so doing a restore from that backup didn't help.
Any way to fix this without flashing the device back to stock?
Thanks!
Edit:
Sorry, forgot to mention I am running cocore 3.9 kernel with deodexed JB.

You know how to use ADB shell? You need to install any other kernel with dd command, or try to do "reboot" from ADB shell in recovery.
I have used the ADB shell on a sony xperia phone so I know more or less how to use it.
Do I need to install any additional files for my phone, or is the ADB ready for my phone (in the xperia I had to get the google usb driver and update it to be able to get into fastboot mode)?
How do I get the phone to be recognized by ADB if i'm stuck in recovery mode?
Which commands do I need to run to reboot the device?
Ok, this is weird. It is fixed by itself
I actually didn't do anything.
I removed the battery again to turn the device off.
I got the cable plugged to my PC (the device showed the charging logo) then turned the device on (to get ready to use ADB).
Surprise surpise the device booted up normally.
I had already tried the process of removing the battery, and did multiple reboot from the CWM option, with no success before.
Now to try to understand.
What just happened?
Why did it get stuck in the recovery bootloop in the first place (I have used this app on GB, so it should also work on JB)?
How did it fix itself? Connecting the cable before the device was on "freed it" somehow?
Most importantly what do you need to do if that happens in the future?
If you have any advice how to backtrack what happened, I would be glad also to share for other users who might come across this situation.

What happend is the problem with J4FS driver in system (kernel). So do not use Reboot recovery untill it is fixed in kernel.
Probably removing battery reseted it, and you could go to system normaly.

But I just now succeeded going into recovery the normal way (turn off device -> vol up+home+power) 3 times (also did another nandroid :good and back to system with no problems. So I am guessing there is a bug when trying to reboot to recovery with the app?
If removing the battery did the trick why didn't it work the first time I did it?

Problem is with doing command "reboot recovery" while you are booted in system. That does not consider going there by using hardware buttons. For ability to use reboot recovery from some app you need fixed J4FS driver in kernel. I got bootloop to recovery too with some version of CoCore. Now you can't do anything untill it is fixed. Look at kernels thread for updates, and report your problem.
About that solution, I do not know. I solved it with flashing other kernel from recovery with ADB shell and DD command. Didn't try anything else.
Thank you!
I will notify cocafe of the bug.
Hi all, this is a last ditched effort at maybe saving my phone. I did an update on my SU and for some unknown reason it rebooted my phone. It then loaded up my rom until the kernel settings loaded then rebooted once again. I then tried to go into recovery to flash a backup and it booted me straight into my unlocked fastboot. I then tried to reboot once again in hopes I could fast navigate into twrp through rom manager, once in I was prompted that I no longer had root. I then decided to start over from scratch and load a recovery in fastboot. Once I had everything good to go I plugged everything in and instead of recognizing my phone as a drive, HTC manager popped up instead. I then updated my drivers to see if maybe that would fix the problem with no luck. I am at a loss at this point. I would greatly appreciate any help you guys can offer.

This is completely normal, you should have just rebooted the phone and been done I then tried to go into recovery to flash a backup and it booted me straight into my unlocked fastboot. Again totally normal, thats the bootloader use the vol to move down and choose recovery and hit power this will boot you to TWRP I then tried to reboot once again in hopes I could fast navigate into twrp through rom manager, once in I was prompted that I no longer had root. I then decided to start over from scratch and load a recovery in fastboot. Why ? Once I had everything good to go I plugged everything in and instead of recognizing my phone as a drive, HTC manager popped up instead. You should not have Sync installed only the drivers I then updated my drivers to see if maybe that would fix the problem with no luck. I am at a loss at this point.

Is the whole point of this just to install SuperSU ?
does your phone still boot up ? at one point you mention using rom manager ?

I was doing a SU update. It restarted into a loop that boots about 1 min after the splash screen then resets. I've tried to redownload root through SU app as I can no longer connect through usb but it reboots to soon. I used Rom Manager to try and get into recovery as a second alternative.

http://download.chainfire.eu/372/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.86.zip
flash in recovery
use adb push UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.86.zip /data/media/0
to get the file on the phone
Reboot to bootloader / fastboot USB
and from command line on pc
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot
I cant understand why people using those ROm manager apps to install stuff. And you said it rebooted after you update your SU. Then i tink you pressed reboot into recovery instead of NORMAL. Am i wrong?

I no longer have a recovery to be able to flash anything. When I try to load into recovery it just boots right back into fastboot. I was just using rom manager to boot into recovery after I couldn't get into recovery through fastboot, not to flash anything. I was updating Super Su through the actual app itself. it seemed to be downloading something when it rebooted itself and I lost root, recovery and the ability to connect to my computer.

I have updated SuperSU many times and never got any problem so there is something you did. Are you on custom or stock rom?
Are you s-off / unlocked bootloader?

My bootloader is unlocked and i'm running Viperrom. I've never gone through the process of s-off but for some reason it says it at the top of my fastboot screen...not sure if that's normal or not.

Ok. I think you need to reflash recovery again.
Boot into bootloader and fastboot usb
then download TWRP recovery from here http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7 and pick 2.6.3.3-m7.img
put it into your fastboot folder and flash it "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img and hit enter
now try to reboot into recovery. When there Wipe Dalvik and Cache and reboot. If recovery ask you to root your device then accept it and reboot.
Remember to connect phone to right USB port not 3.0. Use 2.0 port and try annother cable also.

I've tried a few different cords and all 3 ports I have still nothing but the HTC manager thing. It will recognize it but only for a split second while booting up but it says HTC BUTTERFLY as the drive and i'm not sure if that's a problem or not but it won't recognize it at all through fastboot.
you cant boot up. if it doesnt recognize it in bootloader mode then i dont know.
Try restart PC. Maybe you have several adb at same time. Adn uninstall htc sync if not but keep drivers

I hadthe same problem after flashing a kernel. I repeatedly tried the bootloader (audiodown key + power button) until it started. Recovery was not available, in the red triangle screen press audio up key,got the system recovery screen, wipe cache, reboot the system and then try installing Twrp recovery. It worked.

Grizmen what are you talking about. Why should you boot into red triangle? There is no menu called red triangle. Only on stock recovery.

I think @jpaulpra was telling him to reflash stock recovery
then boot to it and do clear cache.. then reflash twrp
When I got into bootloader, I lost the Twrp recovery. So when I selected recovery I got the screen with a "triangle and exclamation mark". If you leave it will reboot the system after couple of minutes. But if the audio up key is pressed, it will show a system recovery screen, where cache can be wiped

Basically all I'm trying to do now it's find a way to get my computer to recognize my phone as a drive. When I go into viper settings and go to advance menu (with the short time I have before boot loop) there is an option to mount drive. When I select the option to do so it hands on splash screen and I have to hold power button to recycle back on. Once back in it's no longer selected. I've never seen a boot loop go pay the flash screen. Is this normal?
Pretty SOL with my son's Nabi2

Then didn't get a boot afterwards, wiped everything from twrps system, data, the whole shabang!

I still have the original stock unrooted backup saved to my pc from when I first installed twrp. Can someone please help me? I'm really out here trying to reach out for some help. didn't even know where to post this. Thank you guys.

Hi guys, can anyone pls do help me. been troubleshooting and try to fix this thing for 2 days already.
The problem is, my fon will always boot to recovery. Eventhough i choose restart to system it will always go back to recovery.
I tried turn off, and push the power button only, still it will boot to recovery.
This started happening just a sudden, my fon run out of battery. Then its dead, i recharge. When try boot again the recovery boot problem begin.
I tried to restore my backup that iv made after the fresh installation of the CM13, restoration is good. But it still boot to recovery.
I then tried flashed the original rom with fastboot, ( i can access fastboot via the options in recovery, im using the TWRP recovery.
Or else i wouldnt be able to access fastboot also, even if i push (vol down+power button) when the fon is off, it will goes directly to recovery.
Anyone has any idea? please help =(

Hi bro thanks for suggestion, will do try it out. Iv looked at the solution, but it seems that is a problem if cant use fastboot flash with Mi Flash, I have no problem flashing to stock rom in fastboot.

Can you boot to recovery?
VOLUME DOWN + POWER
Once hboot appears, release the buttons and use the volume keys to navigate to recovery.
Once in recovery, wipe Dalvik Cache and Cache and then attempt to boot normally. If that doesn't help, I would boot to recovery again and WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET.
Hope this helps. Let me know what happens.

Install ADB and fastboot on your PC. Connect your phone to your computer and use fastboot to boot into recovery. The steps are already on the site so I'll leave you to find them.

The quote got messed up in your post above so I wasn't sure what you were having trouble with. Unless it's the systemless version, flashing Supersu (or any other root) changes your system partition. Wiping data or the caches won't fix that. The first thing to try is reflashing your ROM. If that doesn't work, you could use the RUU to go completely back to stock.

Never seen that before. Maybe md5 error? If so, it could be that the files aren't downloading correctly for some reason.

Thanks in advance
try reflashing the device also check if the battery output is sufficient for the device thet could be teh problem(was with mine had to change the battery and clean the terminals) i think reflashing would solve the problem
edit:youll have to re do all the stuff you did initially too(noob advice but its true)
