I just flashed sprint lovers rom and went to back it up using rom manager and it went into recovery mode and never left. After 20 minutes I pulled the battery and tried getting into recovery mode. Everytime I push recovery mode it gives the HTC picture and then then returns to the screen to go into Fastboot, Recovery, Clear Storage, Simlock. Is there a way to get out of this situation?

Thanks for any help! :(

never mind, I just ended up clearing storage and am starting from scratch. After all of the flashing it was probably time anyhow...

But do you have a recovery installed?

thanks for the suggestion, as you were correct. I had installed amon ra the pc zip rooted on the sd card. Somehow after I flashed the Sprint lovers rom everything went crazy. I have been flashing like a mad man for the past month and this is the first real incident. No big deal at all and am back up and flashing. Thanks again for your suggestion! ;)

I tried to flash a kernel and I am stuck in recovery mode. I didn't back up my ROM so I think it is gone and the kernel is downloaded but I can't download a ROM. Please help me. I am stuck on Revolutionary. I tried to restore the phone and since I didn't back it up It does nothing but go back to recovery.

Thanks

Do u have internet at home? & what recovery are you running on your phone? You can mount your sd card onto your computer & copy over a rom to your root of your sd card. From there wipe the data, dalvik cache, & cache. Once thats done select the option to flash zip or choose zip file. Dont know what recovery your running. Once you flash your rom your all set & reboot:

But im curious to say your stuck on revolutionary... Have you not yet flashed a custom recovery image & rooted fully? Because when you say revolutionary im thinking your still on the bootloader & you still havent completely finished rooting but just gained S-Off:

He can no longer do a back up since he tried to flash a kernel. He would have to start from scratch with setup now. So only choice is to flash original sense rom or to another rom of his choice.
