okay so i installed a rom with sense 3.0 but after i booted it gave me errors forever i couldnt even use the phone. so i went into revovery mode and by accident formatted my sdcard. phone is know stuck in custom rom boot loop. how can i restore the phone?? either with or without root idc i just want my phone back i can always reroot it. please help thanx in advance!
 
power off, take your sd card out and put a rom .zip file on the sd card, reinsert card with zip on it, hold vol down while powering on to get into recovery. do a factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik a few times (for good measure) and reinstall your rom. holla back with your results. id be shocked if this didnt fix ya up mate. (been watching UK top gear all night, hence the "mate" thing LoL)
 
If you still have recovery installed you can just initialize your usb connection, and transfer files to your SD card. Hopefully you have a nandroid backup somewhere?

Hah, true that. I have a spreadsheet with list of my nandroids on the comp. Though, I am really only trying to keep a couple. Need some extra storage lol.
 
thank you for all your replies, i am transfering everything over know and will let you know if it works. so after i get the rom installed i should do a complete backup of everything?
 
thank you YOUDOOFUS forthe help i got it working perfectly! i guess i really am a doofus but i learned and it wont happened agian. i hav everything backed up on my phone and on my computer incase something goes wrong.
 
i created this nice back in 93 to call everyone that reads it a doofus, and it stuck lol anyways im glad it worked holmes!! oh, and whilst in the forum, when people help ya, the thanks button is a fantastic way to show appreciation ;) welcome to the place where noobs are sculpted into guides! if you ever have a problem, i bet someone in here can fix it! (i.e. ocnbreeze, for he is the FUGGIN SHEEEEYIT!)
 
the same thing happened to me with my Google Nexus S (No SD-Card)
I'm also stuck in a boot loop (MIUI) but is there any way to transfer files (I suggest the original stock ROM) from my pc to the phone?

Looks like to me he doesn't have an SDCARD. I would get one. Not that expensive and every bit worth it.

Oh he probably come over here because We've got the best guides in the universe here in the Evo forum :D:D:D:D:D

yes but is it accessible in recovery like a SDCARD is? Our Evo's also have internal Storage just not nearly as much (A measly 512) however with out an SDCARD we cannot access that part of the phone from recovery or when we choose "Disk Drive" (without SD)
