[ROM] Bootlooping

[mirGantrophy]

I basically was attempting to make my custom rom, or flavor it and what not. but basically what happens now is it goes into a boot loop.

It just says HTC, sits for a second, screen goes black and repeats. it doesn't even get to the boot animation, so logcat doesn't even detect the device for some reason.

I unplug it, start cmd in my SDK dir.
type 'adb logcat' and it just says -waiting for device-
never detects it. heres the recovery.log from the flash

Quick look at log implies a corrupt zip file. Suggest removing existing file and replace. Go into recovery and try to re-install.

yea ive tried that. tried rebuilding it and what not. same things keep happening.

any idea what this means?

mtd: not erasing bad block at 0x01700000

bad block, if anything like a HDD, something going bad?

Might suggest renaming the files - if a bad block is involved - it will be covered up with the current file.

Recompile and then move to sd card. Remember to rename the file on the sd card as well so if a bad block is there, you have it covered as well.

Good luck.
