[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] double zero:
Hello All,

I am completely stuck after trying to fix my girlfriend's phone.

S-Off

HBOOT 6.13.1002

Radio 0.99.01.0225_2

eMMC-boot

___________________________

The phone was rooted over a year ago (not by me). I flashed the HTC12-MROM found here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1892450

The ROM was recently updated, so I did a nandroid backup and tried installing the new rom zip. When I tried to format and wipe the system, everything went to hell.

Whenever I tried to format system, wipe data/cache, I got these messages:

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

I also got messages saying:

error formatting /cache!

error formatting /data

I tried just rebooting the phone, but got stuck in bootloops.

I pulled the battery, tried to do a factory reset, but still got stuck in bootloops.

My genius idea was to try to unroot and take it to a verizon store. No such luck.

I used this guide to try to unroot. http://theunlockr.com/2011/10/14/how-to-unroot-and-return-the-droid-incredible-2-back-to-stock/ I got through Step 1 and flashed the stock ROM file, but the phone was still bootlooping.

I pulled the battery and tried to get into CWM, but the screen goes to a generic phone with a red triangle and exclamation point. If I try to simply reboot the phone, it says "updating software..." but does not move. It's been in this position for at least a half hour.

Can anyone suggest a fix? I can still get into HBOOT. I want to fix this or get it back to stock so I can bring it to Verizon.

Thanks in advance for your help.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Letitride:
That's one of the oldest RUU (Froyo) file from VZW - you might want to try flashing a newer GingerBread RUU from your computer to the DI2 via micro-usb cable. Boot into Bootloader (HBoot) first - make sure that the PC recognize it in USB (nothing like "unknown" or errors reading device, etc.)

http://www.androidfiles.org/ruu/sec....01.1111_NV_VZW1.92_release_225831_signed.exe

Download & flash it, follow the prompts and it should restore your device to stock unrooted condition, then it's a matter of unrooting it again & pushing CWM (with 'adb")

Let it bootup initially and go thru the setup - most likely, you will need to (Re)Activate it OTA again, download/update PRL's - if you can make outgoing call and receiving incoming call, got working 3G/Evdo data and WiFi - it's good to go. If NOT, you will need to call VZW tech support at #8899 [Send/Call] as they will need to take steps to restore your device's security settings (i.e.. "A" keys, etc.) on their end and have you power cycle the device 2 or3 times, get you to make a successful test call, etc.

As for that continuous bootlooping while it's in bootloading mode, it might be a PG32IMG.zip file on the mSD card, pull the Sim card & use a PC to rename and/or delete it, that should help stop the endless loop and help launch it into bootloader and/or recovery.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] double zero:
Thanks for getting back to me. How exactly do I flash this? I can only get into HBOOT. Should I rename this file PG32IMG.zip and put it on the base of the SD?

EDIT

That was a completely retarded question. I figure I can use a cmd prompt to flash this, however, I don't think I've ever had to do that. Can you walk me through it?

Thanks again!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] double zero:
So I figured out how to flash the .exe (literally just plug into the USB and run as administrator). It installed completely fine, but still bootloops. Gets to the red droid eye then boots back to the white HTC screen. It's still not loading.

Any other ideas?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Letitride:
Okay, let's try to get it stop the bootlooping first. Pull out the mSD card & VZW's Sim card too, if installed after taking out the battery. Let it sit for a minute + and re-insert battery only. Power on while holding the Volume Down key only to get it into Bootloader mode - press the Power key to confirm and you should be in HBoot, move down to Factory Reset and press it.

Next, try to go into Recovery screen from HBoot menu and see if you can see the HTC/factory recovery menu (if the RUU was installed, your previous CWM or TWRP should be gone)

Reconnect via mUSB cable to the PC, and clean flash the RUU again - do NOT put the mSD card back in the side slot yet. Let's see (and hope) if it will continue to setup all the way to finish (HTC activation screen) without bootloop or freezing at the white HTC screen.

The other option is to manually flash things using ADB tools (factory Images - system.img and recovery.img, etc.) that's probably beyond your skills ?? as the file systems, bootloader, etc. were likely corrupted & damaged. There are details / guides & steps-by-steps on how to do it in the Development sub-section ...

Let's see if these ideas will work for your devices and if not ... unless someone else "cruising" here has further tips, your device is almost fully restored back to stock to bring back to Big Red for help, IF and if ...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] double zero:
I pulled the SD and Sim Card as you suggested and got it into HBOOT. I hit "Factory Reset" and the phone eventually went into the white HTC screen (and did not move).

I pulled the battery, went back into HBOOT and scrolled down to Recovery. However the phone is stuck at the generic phone with red triangle/exclamation point.

Should I try to get into HBOOT and try to flash the RUU again?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Letitride:
At this point, as long as the PC recognize the DI2 when the USB is connected, I would attempt to flash the RUU again - watch the monitor screen for any error messages that popped up, any bypassed or errors, etc.

When it's done - shouldn't take more than 5 to 10 minutes, power it down. This time, let's try to do the initial boot-up and set-up with a freshly reformatted/blank (FAT formatting) mSD card (hopefully, you have a spare one - 4GB should do - make sure that isn't any PG32IMG.zip files on it as it would interfere with the Bootloader. (Leave your original/regular mSD card out/set it aside for later use in restoring, once you get the basic stock Rom running with no further bootlooping) Next, let it start and bootup ... and let's see if it will boot all the way to the Set-up and Welcome screen.

If this doesn't work either, try transfering/loading the earlier factory rom in PG32IMG.ZIP format onto the new mSD card, bring up the Bootloader and it should load and prompt you to push the Vol. UP key to install/flash. And, when it's finished - boot up and hope ... (I doubt that this extra step will make any difference, but it's worth trying in the overall efforts to un-brick it.

Check & look at your Bootloader to see if anything has been changed in the process and whether the Radio ver. info is different also.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] double zero:
Letitride,

I did exactly as you said, installed the RUU again (it said it was successful). I powered down and put into another microSD card I had (FAT formatted and completely blank). No luck. The phone only boots up to the Red Droid Eye, then reboots to White HTC screen, etc.

I also tried using the factory rom in PG32IMG.ZIP format, same thing. The phone is stuck in the same bootloop. I noticed that when updating via this method, the Bootloader get Bypassed when installing. Do you think this could be a problem?

It also does looks like the Radio version is now different on the HBOOT screen:

S-Off

HBOOT 6.13.1002

Radio 0.99.01.1111

eMMC-boot

It there another RUU I can try flashing or a different PG32IMG?

Is there anything else I try? I haven't used adb before, but if there's a walkthrough on how to use it, would there be anything I can try to do with that?

Thanks.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Letitride:
DD - Here's XDA's Guide to ADB for your reference - http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Flashing_Guide_-_Android

Link to VZW's RUU files (only used the ones on the bottom of the listed directory for VivoW - it's for DI2 http://www.androidfiles.org/ruu/?dir=Vivo_VivoW

The .1111 Radio flashed is different as shown on the Bootloader is different because it is from a different RUU/Rom build, it is one of the correct ones designed for the device - it is fine. Mine is using a .0312 radio and there is a newer radio with .0320 - they all worked in conjunction with the device, results varied depending on the hardware or build date - results varied.

Both of our DI2 are running fine on HBOOT 6.13.1002

Here is a link to one of the thread with a working HBOOT .96.2000 in ZIP format that you can download & flash from Bootloader - it might help reverse/downgrade to this older version from your existing/newer one - it might NOT work, however as yours is newer (post #37) - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1064366&page=4

Is it possible that the device was flashed with the leakded/unofficial RUU or IMG zip file released for China / CDMA-GSM and not meant for VZW's CDMA market ?? If so, it likely corrupted the file/root/boot structure ??

Were you able to do a Factory Reset inside the HBOOT menu ??

Also, do you see the HTC Recovery Menu as it should've been flashed onto the device ?

In any event, let's try doing a wipe of the device once you get into "ADB" with the following command prompt, once it's connected via USB

fastboot -w

Then, try running the RUU again (select this one from the list in the link) - without the new blank mSD card, and with the mSD card

Vivo_VivoW/RUU_Vivo_W_Gingerbread_S_VERIZON_WWE_4.08.605.3_Radio_1.09.01.0722_NV_VZW1.92_release_212888_signed.exe
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Letitride:
Add'l thoughts for DZ

Playing w N7 but thinking about your issues, with device still S-OFF (unlocked) - if nothing is working but you can still get into Bootloader, why not try (manually, via ADB if necessary) flash Custom Recovery (CWM or TWRP, whichever works) - boot into that - and, load the SuperDuperWipe script written by ChillyBean in a Zip file. That should do the deep cleansing and wiping to hopefully removed all the hidden files & bits/pieces left on the / or /SD directories that possibly contributed to all the issues you are experiencing - I don't believe it can reverse or rollback your HBOOT version to .97 or earlier (never tried it, maybe it will or it won't) At this point, it doesn't hurt to try or you have everything to gain ...

If the custom recovery & superwipe worked, then, try flashing the RUU again and see if it will boot up fully without looping? From there, you will have a good base, backup first and decide to load/restore custom rom, kernel or minor mods/tweaks ...

Meanwhile, hope you are reading up on ADB - it's a bit "scarely" doing it the first time, after a few command prompts & success - you will feel good about it.

[LG Optimus G (International)] jwenoch:
Hey folks,

I hate starting new threads but unfortunately I've run out of places to look and the "answers" I've found so far have only further confused me.

I have successfully rooted and unlocked my LG E973 on Bell. My goal is to flash a copy of CyanogenMod 10.1 on to the device, however, I need to install CWM recovery first and I don't know where to start.

I'm new to this and from what I've learned is that I cannot rely on ROM manager as my device isn't fully supported yet, and that I need to find (a specific?) version of recovery files tailored to my device and install them manually to the internal storage, before continuing with ROM manager. (Please correct me if I'm wrong.)

If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be fantastic and greatly appreciated. (Plus I'll nail the crap out of that "thanks" button.)

**EDIT

Couple of additional thoughts, I was wondering if perhaps the CWM files linked here would work? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2127346

Or perhaps I was also thinking that maybe the process used to install CWM Recovery on the Nexus 4 would work as well, considering the devices are so similar.

I'd like to be careful with this and I hope there's some people out there who sympathize with my fear of bricking the phone. I'd like to have a more solid knowledge what what I'm about to do before I go ahead and give'er.

Thanks!
[LG Optimus G (International)] mandroid717:
yes they should work. i have a telus e973 and using cmw v14.4.7 running houstonn 4.1.2 Rom.
[LG Optimus G (International)] jwenoch:
Awesome thanks! So it looks like I'm on the right track.. one other question then if you (or anyone else who might know) would be so kind, How did you manage to install CWM properly onto your device? Using the files in the thread I linked to earlier, I attempted to use a tutorial to install CWM using terminal emulator. (Unfortunately due to my noob status, I can't post outside links)

Unfortunately it didn't work. I received and error on the 5th step telling me that no such directory exists. I assume its probably got something to do with the fact the phone doesn't have an SD card slot. (Or is the internal storage on the Optimus named sdcard? I'll have to check...)

I'm going to do some more searching, you'd figure with everyone running around with CWM on their Optimus G's and no clear instruction on how to do it, it shouldn't be that hard, so I don't know why I'm having so much trouble figuring this out.

Thanks for your patience!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] zanzabar:
throttled gives you the lowest speed that the tower will give you. in some places that is edge in slow mode (about 12Kb/s,) in others it is 768Kb/s on HSPDA.

they did add the full unlimited with no throttling on the value (prepaid) so you might be able to get that now.
