Rom flash saying "loading..."

i'm trying to insall a new rom valkyrie v1.6... i've put it on my memory card root and changed it to kovsimg.nbh got the three colours, now all it says is "Loading..."
any ideas?
X1 rescue! Bricked?
I flashed stock SPL over HSPL before flashing back the stock ROM.
X1 will shows the SPL version following by "Loading..." on the LCD whenever power up! (with memory card inside the phone)
My SPL is 0.72.
The phone should be in recovery mode now without valid ROM/OS in it.
I copy an official UK ROM (R2AA010) into the micro SD card and rename it to kovsimg.nbh,
remove the battery for a few sec, insert the SD card with image file and then hold VOL Down button and power button to boot into Flash mode.
Press Power button to begin flashing process.
(Like normal flashing to other ROM after HSPL mod)
The phone should read the ROM image data and reflash back x1.
If this method not working, try to hold Power+VOL Down and press the RESET at the same time until the phone turn into "Rainbow" screen then try to flash again.
This "Rescue method" works for my set but I still advice that MUST flash stock ROM then only follow with SPL!
If your xperia is stuck in a "boot loop", which I think is what you're describing (as I remember mine always said it was loading the rom, each time you rebooted) then there's a PC application called mtty. it gives a command line interface to the phone when connected by USB.
I don't remember what commands are needed, but a search of the forums should find them. You need to set it to boot properly. Sorry I can't be more helpful, it was last year at some point that I needed this last.

Help 1 More Time Please No Options Are Working

Heres whats Happening
I Got Rc29 on my phone
I Think i rooted correctly
I have Recovery.img and update.zip(hardspl)
on my sd card
Im stuck here where the Arrows Pointing
"What To Do Now That You Have Root
Now that you have root, you will want to apply "Hard SPL" to your phone. HardSPL is what will allow you to apply flash images from other regions (like UK on US phones, and vice versa), create full backups of your phone, install the latest build from the Android source, and usually resurrect your phone if it is "bricked". You have already downloaded the file to your SD card, so now you can apply it.
1.Power off your phone.
2.Start up in recovery mode by --->(holding home and pressing power)<---.
3.You will now enter recovery mode. You should see an exclamation.
4.If you do not see a menu on screen, press Alt-L to show the menu.
5.Press Alt-S to apply the update from the SD card.
6.After the update is complete, hold Home and press Back to restart."
When im at step 2 i do as told but when attempting It turns on
with the Tmobile g1 screen then goes black then g1 again then turns on like normal it doesnt enter recovery mode
so can i update(hardspl) with the Back+Power button instead the recovery or no?
Whats wrong i dont understands what im doing wrong
please just like help me out
You need to reformat your post. You mashed together other threads instructions with your own post without seperating or quoting them. Its difficult to read.
Is this better
You need to hold down home+power until at least the fone vibrates. Some say hold it down longer which is fine. Your phone should then boot into a recovery console that will allow u to apply the update.zip file you placed on the root of your SD (this file should be the hard/engineering SPL). Post if u still have probs.

This is the SECOND thread he has made about this. Apparently the first one wasn't good enough for him anymore.

cannot manually install US official R83 update

i rooted my phone long ago, i was running on ADP 1.6 R83...
however, it crashed somehow...
now i want to run it on the OTA R83.....
but....
it will abort installation
- -
there's nothing wrong with verification.....
only when it is almost done with the installtion...
it will automatically abort it...
- -
what should i do with it?
thanks
If you want to un-root and go back to stock firmware, just flash DREAIMG.nbh. Copy the file to your SD card, power down, then hold in the camera button while powering up. It should find the file and say "press action button to continue" press the trackball, and let it do its thing.
Once it's complete, reboot with call+menu+end
If you can live with pre-cupcake for a few days, it'll eventually update over the air on its own.
thanks...
but i actually root this phone from the Singapore Version HTC Dream....
does that matter?
thank you!!!
haha!!
tragedy....
i'm using ATT now...i've no internet from my mobile....

[Q] Recovery mod not working for second time

Phone: Samsung Galaxy S I9000
Firmware: Stock Froyo 2.2
Hello all!
I have updated to Froyo with Kies and all went fine. Now I have decided to give a try to this ROM. I looked for instructions and did as Darky said in his instructions. I have moved files to SD card and went to DOWNLOAD mod by pushing 3 buttons and got an error "no such file or folder" as I have moved files to wrong folder. I rebooted my phone and moved/checked for files that they are on SD card in right folder. After that I made "Factory reset" via menu. Now when I'm holding Volume Up + Home + Power buttons my phone won't let me to DOWNLOAD mode. Is there some block or something? I haven't flashed anything yet just went to download mode and rebooted once. I have not any DOWNLOAD button by pressing power button when phone is ON.
- Any ideas?
THANK YOU!
Can anyone give some suggestion? Why I can't access Recovery mode anymore?
THANK YOU!

total brick? , no recvery , new sbf`not working

hi there ,
a friend of mine gave me his dead milestone a853 , he tried to update the Android Version and after a successfull update the stone won`t boot again.
whats working and what not
Bootloader 90.78 - working
charging - working
recovery - not working , i hold the "X" for hours ;-)
boot - not working, the "M" is there for 70seconds, screen turn off , turns on , 70 seconds "M" , turns off .. and so on
What i did.. but nothing is working...
flashed the 90.78 Bootloader again ,
flashed a lot of full sbf`s
flashed only recovery
flashed vulnerable_recovery and used open recovery on sd-card
Any Idea , or is this a total brick .. ?
"Edit" it is a German Milestone...
Mate it should work. I don't know what you do wrong.
Just to be sure.
1. Flash vulnerable partition sbf.
(nadalbak / kabaldan site.)
2. Open recovery (I recommend fufu) update.zip on the root of sd card OpenRecovery folder also in the root.
3 check the card, I think I have heard of card issues that makes rom stop booting.
Try removing the card see if it starts, or change the card and see is it enters in recovery.
Format the card.
Try holding power + x. I know it works only if you keep x pushed put wth.
Sent from my Milestone using xda premium
you mean vulnerable_recovery_only_RAMDLD90_78.sbf ?
I have done this . nothing ,
i still cant`access recovery..
i`m holding the "X" for 30 seconds
i "installed" open recovery on different sd cards , nothing
without micro-sd or sim card , still not booting
any other ideas
Try holding Power + VolUp + Camera while the device is powered off. You should get the bootloader. From there, connect the USB cable, use RSDLite to flash the SBF you mentioned, and then after that completes turn the phone off again.
Now, hold Power + Camera until you get the recovery logo. (Hold that combo right through the M logo, takes about 10 seconds on mine.) Release the keys. Hold Camera, tap VolUp once, then let go of Camera. Now you should be in the stock recovery. You can now "Install update.zip" from the SDCard using MiniMod OpenRecovery.
I know that with the 90.78 bootloader you might have to use the X key instead of the Camera key, although on mine it's still Camera. If my steps don't work, try again using X wherever I said Camera.
If you still can't get in to OpenRecovery, let us know where the steps failed.
So, did you get the device to work or was there another problem somewhere?
no , still a brick.. nothing is working..
no way to get into recovery , no sbf file helps
i flashed about 10-15 different sbf files
holding x or camera but the only the M appears and the Milestone starts over and over again after 70seconds
same problem..
Hi, i have the exact same problem. Friend gave me the phone to fix after they tried rooting it, but didnt succeed. And now I can't get any SBF files to work either. It starts to go but then ends shortly with a Fail and Error.. Any one have any ideas yet?
