Default [Help]A2SD failed!Phone can not boot,stays at HTC white screen!

hi everyone, today is the 3rd day and 1st time using android phone. im a super newbie here.

first my desire has already rooted. done myself yesterday.
today, i follow an instructions of how to a2sd which link over here
http://nimbu.amorvi.com/2010/05/how-...ur-htc-desire/

6. Install Apps2SD

Put your Goldcard into your phone and turn on your phone
Attach your phone to your PC via microUSB cable (harddrive mode).
Copy the r1-a2sd-desire-dalvik-fresh-signed.zip file you downloaded earlier onto your Goldcard sdcard via your phone.
Turn off the phone and unplug it from your PC.
Turn on your phone while holding the volume down button.
You will see HBOOT on the screen.
Use the volume buttons to move up and down and power button to select the RECOVERY option.
You will now see a red triangle on the screen, at this point plug your phone into your PC via your microUSB cable.
Double click on recovery-windows.bat inside the pushfiles_windows.zip folder you unzipped as part of the root process.
Looking back at the Desire, you'll see that the red triangle screen is gone and a greenish recovery console appeared.
Using the optical trackpad select Wipe > Wipe data/factory reset
After this has completed do Wipe > Wipe cache
Again, once this has completed do Wipe > Wipe Dalvik-cache.
Next select Flash zip from sdcard and select r1-a2sd-desire-dalvik-fresh-signed.zip.
Once flashing is over, select the "Power off" command.
Unplug your phone from the PC, and replace the GoldCard sdcard with your normal sdcard.
Remember to have backed up your normal sdcard before proceeding, as the next step will wipe all data from it.
Turn on your phone while holding the volume down button.
You will see HBOOT on the screen.
Use the volume buttons to move up and down and power button to select the RECOVERY option.
You will now see a red triangle on the screen, at this point plug your phone into your PC via your microUSB cable.
Double click on recovery-windows.bat inside the pushfiles_windows.zip folder you unzipped as part of the root process.
Using the optical trackpad select Partition sdcard > Partition SD
Select SWAP=0, EXT2=512 and allow the rest to be FAT32.
Select the SD:ext2 to ext3 option in this menu.
Go back to the Recovery Console main menu and select Reboot system now. While rebooting, unplug the Desire from the USB port.
And thats it! You now have a rooted Desire with apps2sd. Get in!


i did exactly the instructions. when do the last steps/reboot system now. it stays at HTC white screen. then i tried lot of ways to restore to original ROM///whatever... all failed.

and i can't go into the green recovery mode! thats a tragedy. could anybody experts in the forum help me out? all i want is just go back to the original ROM. thank you.

my phone was bought from clove.


waiting online....

Are you sure you did this part correctly?:
Using the optical trackpad select Partition sdcard > Partition SD
Select SWAP=0, EXT2=512 and allow the rest to be FAT32.
Select the SD:ext2 to ext3 option in this menu.


Try that again, had the same problem, fixed it that way

Edit: Oh just read that you cant go into recovery...
