[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santod040:
When you do the volume down and power option with the device off, you need to first press the volume down and then while holding that, then press and also hold the power button, you should feel it vibrate, keeeeeep holding them down, do not let go.

Wait until you see what should be a white hboot screen with menu options, then you may let go.

If you hold power first or don't hold them both down long enough, it will just try to boot normally.

Not that that would explain why you can't get there from within Recovery Control app.

What is your hboot version and how did you root your device?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JM1084:
It was rooted using the Revolutionary method, did it a year or more ago.

Hboot version is 6.04.1002

When I try to go to recovery from the hboot screen it does the same, vibrate, white HTC screen, black screen, vibrate, white HTC screen, normal boot. No recovery.

Is there any other method of getting into recovery or re-flashing the recovery?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santod040:
Yes, you can flash Recovery images from hboot, just like you flash a radio.

With it named PG05IMG.zip and placed on the root of the sd card.

HERE is one you can try.

If that doesn't work, I may have something you can try from fastboot to clear the Recovery cache, and maybe that will resolve the issue.

I have only seen one other user have this occur and his device simply ended up getting replaced because he wasn't able to mount to usb for doing fastboot commands either.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JM1084:
Still no go flashing that recovery in hboot. What is the process of clearing recovery cache?

On a side note, in talking to my father, his bolt seems to have the same issue. We both were rooted with the same method, and I believe we have the same hboot version. Only difference is he flashed the rom using clockwork recovery.

Edit: I confirmed his hboot is 6.04.1002. same as mine
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santod040:
Well, I've got several Bolts here, and a couple of them have that same hboot and were used to test the stock roms with.

So I do not think it's a root or hboot issue, but I do not know what the issue would be other then corrupt Recovery cache.

To try and fix it by clearing the cache, do the following:

Download the erasecache.zip file from www.4ext.net/erasecache.zip

First boot your device into bootloader while connected via usb.

If it reads "fastboot usb" you are already in fastboot mode.

If it reads "hboot usb" then select "fastboot" in the bootloader menu.

Extract the file anywhere on your computer, and then start the file erase_cache.cmd with

elevated rights (right click erase_cache.cmd and select to run as administrator)

Watch for any error messages and tell me the results please.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If the above method fails, try this way:

This requires a little adb or command line knowledge(not much) and the appropriate files on your system.

Please boot into bootloader -> fastboot mode

and then issue the following fastboot command:

fastboot erase cache

afterwards boot recovery from the bootloader menu and enter the

wipe menu and format cache
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JM1084:
Alrighty, I will give that a shot. I am at work right now and am about to head out of town so I will be unable to try it until sunday. I'll post the results here asap. Thanks again!

Same ROM, same problem,I even tried flashing a different recovery. Rooted using really old one click method a month after thunderbolt release.

Sent from my HTC Thunderbolt
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JM1084:
No Go, my tbolt will not mount in Win7, it just says the device has malfunctioned. Rebooting into the bootloader with USB in will not show anything in Windows, even in fastboot. It makes the device connection sound but no devices show up. Running the CMD file in the zip you linked does nothing, I'm at 10 minutes now where it just says "Waiting for device". Is my device just done for?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coltspackers:
I think I had a similar problem once. Boot back into your hboot screen. Then select "factory reset". If you have a 3rd party recovery installed, like it sound like you have (4ext, right?), it will boot you to recovery so you can administer the reset yourself (it doesn't actually wipe anything, just brings you to your recovery's home screen).

Let me know how it goes.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanFunky:
Thanks for the info, but this didn't work either. I'm also on 6.04.1002 and rooted mine a week after the T-Bolt shipped manually via adb.

This happened about a month ago also, and I thought it was ext4 but managed to get an older TWRP recovery to work after working on it for about a day and a half without a working phone. At least I have a working phone at this point.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allo_87:
Same ROM, same recovery (4ext), same problem. Rooted by adb a month after launch, hboot 6.04.1002
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santod040:
Might be wise to bring it to Max's attention.

He makes the Recovery that is disappearing and may have suggestions or ideas on how to prevent this in the future.

I have flashed every rom I have ever posted at least once.

Most of them, may times and have yet to run into this issue.

I have had Recovery become corrupted once or twice quite some time back and not be able to get into it.

But it was easily fixed by reinstalling/reflashing a recovery.

I guess what I'm saying, is if there is a common issue occuring on our device with some ICS users and his Recovery, he should know about it.

Here's how to contact him: LINK

Hopefully he can help or look into the root of the issue, since I know he has had a few users with this same issue in the past.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allo_87:
Excellent advice, thanks man.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zomgalama:
My thunderbolt's recovery spin mysteriously started working again yesterday, not sure why.

Doesn't matter though since I switched carriers now:/

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allo_87:
Still nothing for me. Worse yet is the fact that I can't adb because my usb has not worked properly since "the soup incident"
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JM1084:
After going over the issue with Max and trying several fixes he suggested (he even made me an app that would format my cache), it seems I either need to obtain an RUU and flash the stock software/recovery back on and re-root or try flashing an updated hboot that already has s-off. The thinking is that it is my hboot that is causing the issue. Does anyone know what files I need? I have a couple of things to try at home to see if I can get my usb working again, if not, anything I do will have to be a flashable zip from the bootloader. Thanks!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socalslim:
I'm having exactly the same problem. USB doesn't work and unable to boot into recovery....

~Slim
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socalslim:
I've begun a dialogue with Max (developer of 4EXT). Hopefully, we can find a solution.

~Slim
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socalslim:
So...

After corresponding with Max, there is nothing short of returning to stock/unrooting that will likely fix this. Since the USB port on my phone is only useful for charging, then a bootloader flashable zip is the solution. I downloaded...

PG05IMG_Mecha_VERIZON_WWE_1.03.605.10_Radio_1.02.0 0.0103_2r_NV_8k_1.37_9k_1.52_release_165253_signed .zip

from the following thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=997724&highlight=RUU

Does anyone have any other ideas before I proceed with this? Should I be doing something else or flashing a different file? Of course, before I place the file on the root of my SD card, I will rename it to PG05IMG.zip. Fortunately, I have a MicroUSB to SD card adapter so I will use to get the file from my computer to my phone.

Thanks to anyone that can help or offer advice.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tburns:
Are you on the new radios? If you are you may have a problem and brick.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socalslim:
I am on the new radios. Which should I flash to be safe? I have held off on this since I'm not sure whether or not I'll jack the phone and I only have ~1.5 months left in my contract with big red.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tburns:
The phone works all except recovery and USB to computer connection right?

Need to find a recovery IMG that will install in the boot loader like an ruu does.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socalslim:
Yep
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tburns:
OK try this

Download the recovery you want. Change the name or make sure the file name is recovery.img

Zip it without compression and name it PG05IMG.zip

Put it on the root of your SD card and reboot to boot loader. That should reinstall the recovery without usb

Don't use ext4 again hehe
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socalslim:
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try it out a little later.

~Slim
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socalslim:
I tried and I still have the same problem. Any other suggestions?

~Slim
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tburns:
What did it say and do when you tried?

Flashing an older ruu could brick you if you have the ICS radios.

Ill keep trying to help and come up with ideas. The no USB blows.

What recovery did you try as well? I can try to find amon ra recovery.

Also do you have another SD card? The recoveries use the SD card when booting. A failing card could cause issues or try it without the card in.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socalslim:
It said something like Parsing PG05IMG...then it finished. It was fairly quick.

I had tried re-flashing 4EXT initially but the last two times I tried flashing I tried a TWRP image.

I don't have another SD card but I can probably find one at work.

From what the dev's I've spoke with have said, the problem is likely caused but a corrupted cache partition...

Thanks for the help.

~Slim
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tburns:
Had a brain fart. Downgrade your radio and flash the ruu. Downgrading down from the ICS radios is important.

You'll loose root and be stuck back at stock since the USB doesn't work.

I would use an older GB radio to avoid any main version is newer errors when flashing an ruu
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JM1084:
I think its the ROM that is causing my USB to not work. As I said in an earlier post, this problem is happening on 3 different thunderbolts, Mine, my Fathers & my Mothers. Mine is the ONLY one that used the 4EXT recovery, the other 2 were running the clockwork recovery. All 3 phones can't access the recovery & can't use usb. All 3 are running the same ROM & have the same hboot version. I haven't had time to try anything else with my bolt as I'm now using a Galaxy S3 that was given me. It still concerns me that my folks have no recovery on their phones if anything funky ever happens.

No its not I have 3 bolts using this and other ROMs. Operator error I'm afraid
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JM1084:
I have been using the tbolt for nearly 2 years and with many different roms, never had any kind of issue like this until I began using this particular ROM. I find it strange that after I put this ROM on 3 different tbolts they all lose recovery and USB function at the exact same time. And I am not the only user having this issue. Seems to be a little more that operator error to me.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JM1084:
This is exactly what I have been looking for! Will try it tonight! Thanks.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socalslim:
Let us know how it goes. I'm still a little apprehensive to try it.

~Slim
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JM1084:
No luck. I tried it 3 times, re-downloaded the files twice. Everything appears to work in the bootloader, it gives no errors. But it just boot loops at the white HTC screen now. Another downer is half my touch screen stopped responding yesterday afternoon before I tried all this so I think I am going to write the ole T-Bolt off as a total loss and be done with it. Its been a great phone for the past couple years. Time to move on. Thanks to everyone that tried to help me out!

I hope the bugs will be fixed soon because the rom's smoothness is really great, other devs should learn from Maclaw Studio.

You're right, didn't want to disrespect other devs great work :D

Check here..don't know it works on AOSP JB..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] blugonjic:
First off, best JB ROM I tried definitely. But I noticed a bug. The SIM PIN numbers seem to overlap and the numbers are too small other than that everything runs perfectly smooth and battery life is awesome.

I tried posting this on the site of the dev but my comments were never allowed for some strange reason :-/

EDIT: Another bug that I found is that you cannot to PC via USB. It only unmounts the SD when you try. Solution, mount via CWM Recovery and then transfer files whilst in recovery. Works like a charm.

EDIT2: Upon going to Settings > Storage, Settings force close. I have INT2EXT4+ installed so that might be the problem. If anyone without the script could confrm. Btw, INT2EXT4+ works like a charm. Also every now and then Google Search force closes after being used

I did install this script on other ROMs and always was working withoout any fuss, even on alpha2. Any other suugestions? Thanks for the help so far, appreciate it :)

I tried this ROM, and it remains at the logon screen. (that X).

Is loading and loading and loading forever.

I wiped data/cache/dalwik and then installed from zip with ClockWork.

Any Ideas?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] blugonjic:
Try wiping /system from mounts as well. If not download it again and try it. You might as well wipe Battery stats
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Miki07:
great ROM, good work as always :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] shyamv:
First, check if the ROM zip file you downloaded is not corrupted

Second, wipe data partition, cache partition, dalvik cache in Advanced Mode then format System

Third, install ROM from the zip file and again wipe data partition, cache partition and dalvik cache.

Reboot and your done
