Firstly, you should not start flashing stuff to your phone unless you are 100% sure of what you are doing. The community is here to help, not to bail you out because you couldn't be bothered to read the instructions carefully.
Right rant over lets try and get this phone working again. As you have already flashed the rom, that's a start. You now need to go into the bootloader to flash the kernel and ram disk.
So step by step:
1) Boot into the bootloader (hold volume down and power)
2) Download the appropriate boot.img from the ARHD thread.
3) Place the boot.img in the same folder as fastboot.
4) From the Command Line run fasboot flash boot boot.img
5) Then run fastboot erase cache
I may be wrong but I think the ARHD boot.img contains a script which automates steps 4 and 5 in which case you can just run the script and ignore these steps. Once you have done all this the phone will boot normally.

Have u installed the SDK platform tools in ur computer?if not type on google Android SDK and download it then you can do the following. place the image file (which is the kernel) in the path of SDK(where is installed. Mine for example is on C:\Program files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools\(Place here UR kernel file) )
afterwards open an CMD and then type the following fastboot flash boot NAME_OF_IMAGE.IMG. everything that dr97.. said is right u should do those steps first. my guidance is on what to do and where to place the kernel. ill be online all time to answer you as sooner i can.
Good luck m8

i didnt forget you just checking if we can do it with other way.
found a way. go here download it. Make sure u have the HTC sync installed. Once u download the tool u will find 2 files one exe and one folder.inside the folder u will find 2nd folder with name Kernels. place there your kernel and go back one folder where you will find Windows Batch file with name UserKer Press it and follow the instructions
One more edit. Rename the Kernel as Boot! or else i think it will not work the script
GOOD LUCK

If you are now trying to get back to stock then you need to know a few things first. If you have a branded phone (locked to a network provider) then you will need to download their RUU for the phone, if you have an unbranded phone (can use any sim card in it) then you will need to flash the unbranded RUU for your phone. and unbranded RUU can be Identified if the firmware is like the following: x.xx.401.x, a branded phone goes something like: x.xx.771.x (this is for 3 UK, the 771 part will be different depending on your network).
Secondly what firmware were you on before flashing a custom ROM onto your phone? were you on 1.26, or 1.28, or 1.29? you will need to have the relevant stock recovery and RUU for your firmware version. If you can't remember then what is your hboot version? if its 0.43 then you are most probably on 1.26, 0.94 should be for 1.28, and 0.95 I believe is for the 1.29 variant.
you can unlock your bootloader again using the same unlock.bin file from the HTCDEV site to flash the right stock recovery onto your phone, then relock the bootloader again and then run the RUU. This should bring you back to almost factory defaults.
you should be able to find the right RUU from THIS thread, The right recovery from HERE and disaster recovery tutorial from HERE
And next time PLEASE READ UP ON HOW TO DO THIS STUFF, BEFORE ACTUALLY DOING IT.

and yes i have the unlock.bin that was sent to me by htc can u please be so kind and tell me step by step how:1-flash my unlock.bin
2- then flash the stock recovery for my device thanks alot alot in advance really appreciate every one that is trying to help thank u guys

you can unlock your bootloader again with the same unlock.bin file you got off the HTCDEV site and using the following command in command prompt: fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin ... the signature error could possibly point to having the wrong stock recovery. did you flash the 1.29.401.11 stock recovery?
Edit: could you post the link to where you got that RUU from? I might possibly be able to extract the recovery.img file from it, as I think the 1.29.401.11 recovery might be wrong for you, you might need the 1.29.415.11 recovery to be flashed...

You shouldn't relocked it on the first place, because from what i read at the OP, you have your phone unlocked and rooted..if you follow my guide, my friend, you will have a fully working phone again..do you even read it..

[Q] HTC One X - Big Problem RUU

Hello XDA people
Im new in thread, but im follow the XDA at many time, so i hope im doing the right way
Explanation of my problem.
Im from PORTUGAL and i use a HOX with the VODAFONE rom...
When i buy it i see all that vodafone apps and i dont like it.....so what i do?... I make the bootloader unlock, the ROOT to my
HOX and everything goes fine to install in the future a ANDROID REVOLUTION HD, and that is the rom that i downloaded the version 10.6.
I put the rom in my SD, put the phone in fastboot, first the image via CMD, and the install ZIP of the rom
So far all normal.
But when i boot my htc it stucks on htc logo................
Well, i try again and again and nothing, do a wipe cache, wipe dalvik, and nothing.....nothing.....and again......nothing
After that
i thought to going back and RELOCKED the bootloader to put a STOCK RUU...
The RELOCKED works fine, but the problem it´s the RUU ---------- I dont find any compatible RUU for my HOX.
In this moment i have the 2.17.161. 4 and the radio is 2.1204.137D1.21 ------ i dont find any RUU compatible with this.
I try the RUU´S 1.26, 1.28, 2.17 and nothing
Allways the ERROR 140: Bootloader version problem.......
What can i do to REVIVE my HOX ?
Please if someone can help me i will be very grateful!:crying:
Sorry for my English..........im Portuguese!!!

Did you take a nandroid backup before trying to flash arhd 10.6?
If not, you could just flash arhd 9.7.2.

The HOX now is RELOCKED.
and i can reboot to stock to put another custom rom, or it´s possible put a custom rom
on HOX in bootloader mode?

follow this guide from master Shnizlon
Download the ROM and place it on your virtual SD card.
Relock your bootloader via HTCDev.
Go into fastboot mode and type 'fastboot oem rebootRUU'.
Flash new firmware using the commend 'fastboot flash zip firmware.zip'.
On first time running the commend you will see FAILED, don't panic and just run the commend again.
Reunlock your bootloader via HTCDev.
Flash custom recovery using the commend 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img'.
Download boot.img and flash it using the commend ‘fastboot flash boot boot.img’.
Use the commend 'fastboot erase cache' to avoid boot issues.
Go into recovery and install the ROM.
Reboot your device and enjoy from JB!

You'll need to unlock and install clockworkmod, then you can restore nandroid backup (dont forget boot.img) or install custom rom.

OK. I leave apart the RUU, only some question, because im a noob!!!
1º I can not enter in the HOX only in bootloader mode, how do i create a virtual SD ?
2º the HOX is relocked, i have to relocked again ?
3º which JB rom i install for this ?
sorry for this questions, but i have done so much, that i´m afraid to brick my HOX.

First use this to charge yor phone read the thread and use search function http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658084
Second unlock your bootlader with your Unlock_code.bin you must get Unlock_code.bin from htcdev.com
Third you must to take decision STOK rom or CUSTOM rom. If you whont STOK you can use Nandroid backup or use search button for STOCK rom by mike1986.
You must to download this recovery in any case http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2240646
when you unlock your bootloader flash the recovery.img via fastboot
After this copy your ROM to SD Card and flash it from recovery. Last flash boot.img via fastboot.
If you choice stock rom you must to install the stock rom of course, to flash stock recovery.img and after this boot.img via fastboot.

1. After the phone is charged unlock your phone with Unlock_code.bin from HTCDEV you must register and use icon Unlock Bootloader choice ALL OTHER SUPPORTED MODELS and fallow the instruction from HTCDEV put your Unlock_code.bin in fasboot folder in your case C:\fastboot\ and again go in bootlader fastboot and use command: fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
2. Flash this via fastboot RECOVERY use command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

I made the first steps a little easier, added adb, fastboot and some scripts in the attachement.
- Unpack the attached zip-file to your windows computer
- Connect the phone to the computer (get it in fastboot mode)
- Run the script FastbootBatteryRecharge.bat
- The phone will keep rebooting, and your phone will be charged very slowly (so keep it this way half a day or longer).
When the phone is charged you face a next problem. The phone has already been unlocked and relocked by another user, and I am not sure you can get an Unlock_code.bin from HTC if someone before you did that for a specific device. Or you can ask your friend if he has the Unlock_code.bin
If you manage to get the Unlock_code.bin -file put it in the folder you unpacked and run the script HTCDevUnlock.cmd
If you did that you can flash a custom recovery and flash a custom ROM, you can read all about that in these forums (look at the sticky topics).

Thanks very much for simplifying the steps .
I dont want to jinx it , but its looking good so far.
I was just thinking of restoring the phone to the FACTORY SETTINGSDo I have to get the unlock code for this or just go into the HBOOT when the phone has a sufficient charge?
I want to learn more about all things Android . Can anyone recommend an idiots guide ? A guide that explains the jargon in plain english & has step - by - step guides?
Thanks in advance

you don't need the Unlock code for factory reset you can do it from recovery but you will lose all your information on the SD card

Hey pal first off, this is the wrong forum. This is the old wildfire forums not the wildfire s. But I shall help you out none the less
Since your phone is hboot unlocked but not s-off you need to flash your custom roms boot.img via fastboot just after you flash the rom via recovery. When you download the rom it comes in a zip file, unzip a copy of it and place the boot.img in your fastboot folder, then copy the zip to your sd card and then flash via recovery. Once it's flashed boot into hboot by using advanced reboot options I think its called. Then flash the boot.img using the command
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Where boot.img is the name of the .img you took from the zip file (just in case you have renamed it and don't know why the command is not working)
Then do fastboot reboot and the phone should boot up okay. You need to flash the boot.img for every rom change that you do. Also should you decide you want to run a RUU you must relock you hboot or it won't run.

HI.
firste off i would like to thank you for taking the time to responde to my question and im sorry about posting in the wrong forum.
i watched the XDA DEV noob video on youtube about being a noob so before i posted my question i looked through each and every post i could find about my phone s problem but NO LUCK so i decided to ask the experts
*i did relock my bootloader before i ran the Ruu and it didnt work it said main version too old and since my costume rom is based on andoird 2.3.7 and my htc can only go as far as 2.3.5 and ruu wont let you downgrade so i figured it might not work.
*now you suggested that i flash the costume rom via recovery and thats the problem i cant even get in to my recovery it just gets stuck on the white htc screen and i tried flashing the recovery Again (twrp) and nothing. even other recoveries wouldnt work.
*i flashed about 4 roms and they all worked just fine even this last one and i didnt flash the boot.img and i was able to reboot normally
THANK YOU.

Okay so, let's recap.
You are on a custom android rom.
You have a custom recovery installed.
Your cannot flash the RUU as your run version is higher than the RUU.
Lastly you cannot boot into your custom Rom, or your recovery?
Do you want to return to stick it get a custom Rom flashed?

at this point i just want to get pass that white htc screen i am sick of it
Q: if i flash a system via fastboot successfully will it automaticly erase the old one because i tried to erase it but it said remot controle not allowed (S-on)

ok, ive requested this thread be moved to its correct forum.
before proceeding can you tell me when your htc wildfire marvel was made? after 2012?
can you flash clockworkmod recovery and then try flashing a custom htc sense rom
Then reboot back into cwm recovery (by selecting advanced/ reboot-recovery in the menus) and plug the phone into your computer via usb cable. open up your command prompt and move to your adb folder. type the following commands ( a # denotes instructions and should not be typed into the command window)
Code:
adb devices
#this should show your device up, maybe saying its in recovery mode
adb shell
# the command prompt should change to a # symbol
Now make sure you have a sdcard in the phone and then run the following command
Code:
cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 > /sdcard/misc.img
This should leave you with a file called misc.img on your sdcard. Lastly
Code:
exit
exit
exit
your command window should have closed. now upload this file to a online storage system like dropbox and send me a pm with a link to it. I will edit it and you can flash it back, this will relock your hboot and downgrade your software version so that RUU's will work. then we will run a RUU, returning your phone to stock and functional state

Hmm.... Okay reflash twrp and see if it boots up. Without a recovery your options are limited. You need to be careful as your device uses a different kernel from older versions of the wildfire s. If you flash a older RUU version it will kill your phone.
Do you have any phone unlock shops near you?

Make sure when you go to the unlock shop you make sure they use an XTC clip http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/Unlocking/xtc_clip.htm
If they don't have it then do not pay for an unlock. You need s-off not SIM unlocked. Make sure to ask for it. Once your S-off you can run any RUU and fix the phone but check in here first so I can ensure that its compatible with your 2012 edition of the phone ( as I said flashing one that is too old will kill the phone!)

HTC Desire 816 Dual SIM, only boots into Fastboot!

My HTC Desire 816 Dual SIM,
1. does not boot normally,
2. only boots into FASTBOOT page,
3. in FASTBOOT page I can select and enter Hboot page,
4. in Hboot menu, when I select RECOVERY, or FACTORY RESET, it returns only to FASTBOOT page.
5. as the attachment shows, there is nothing written in front of "OS-"; it is blank.
Questions:
1. In these conditions, is it possible to flash the ZIP ROM from sdcard via Hboot?
2. Is it not necessary to flash stock recovery, wipe some partitions, etc first, and only then proceed to flashing ZIP ROM from sdcard via Hboot?

Hi
I have the same problem as you only my. HTC is the sIngle sim A5-UL Version.
So far I have not had any replies regarding the problem.
Hopefully we will get a resolution
sometime.

It should be but you will need to have the stock recovery reinstalled by first unlocking your bootloader then flashing back your stock recovery then relock bootloader and then flash the RUU or stock zip file thru either ADB /fastboot on your computer or via SD card and renaming the image OP9CIMG and hboot should pick it up and flash it automatically. Did you accidentally wipe your system or try to flash something that corrupted it? In other words what happened before all this? We're you rooted with a custom recovery or still on stock?

Because my phone has behaved abnormally (OS- is blank, as attachment shows; unlocking bootloader did not show Yes or No page; and other abnormalities), I am not sure whether to download a file over 1.20GB, or not? I am afraid about failure! Is not my phone in a situation that needs some preparations before doing what you said?

Hi
Thanks for reply. I was attempting to go back to stock and had installed stock recovery and then relocked the bootloader and when i tried to install the RUU it said it was the wrong one.
I then tried the Hboot way but received the same error. I need to find several RUUs to be able to find the correct version for my 816 which i believe is Asian but not sure where.

Oh, ok I get it now. Think the forum I linked you to was for the European a5_ul. Here's a link to some a5_ul roms kitkat and lollipop. I see one of the lollipop versions is Asia. Try to match your CID and version ID or at least your radio ID's before flashing it. "fastboot getvar all" will give you most of that info but it looks like that might be your firmware. Also make sure you relocked your bootloader before flashing. Good luck

Sorry, I wasn't trying to accuse you of doing something to your phone but those pictures don't show me any of that. It just shows that you seem to no longer have an OS with your lack of a CID and something happened to cause this. It's not about finger pointing but getting the issue resolved for you I know. As for helping you unlock your bootloader the method is pretty straight forward and if it didn't work for whatever reason the only real advice I can give is to just try it again. That's how I unlocked mine so maybe it was just a glitch and another attempt will work. For now I'm more concerned that you didn't wipe anything yet your recovery and firmware seen too be missing or at least inaccessible from your bootloader. The factory reset was going to be my first suggestion but since your already done that have you tried to enter your recovery thru ADB/fastboot? (fastboot reboot recovery.) The other thing is what region are you in( India, Asia, European) and does " fastboot getvar all" work from using ADB? Also if your OS is wiped then any RUU flash will reformat your partitions for you and restore your rom. Also were you on kitkat or lollipop stock rom?

Hi
Again thanks for the reply.
My 816 A5UL is Asia-HK-CHT

Which i cannot find anywhere.

Yeah I've never heard of that version before. I only found one link here below that even mentions that CID but no solution. If you haven't flashed the one I linked I'd try it anyway because as long as your S on the signed rom won't flash if it's the wrong one but if your sure it's wrong then save the data hit to your ISP cap. Sorry I wasn't of more help to you.

As for helping you unlock your bootloader the method is pretty straight forward and if it didn't work for whatever reason the only real advice I can give is to just try it again. That's how I unlocked mine so maybe it was just a glitch and another attempt will work. For now I'm more concerned that you didn't wipe anything yet your recovery and firmware seen too be missing or at least inaccessible from your bootloader. The factory reset was going to be my first suggestion but since your already done that have you tried to enter your recovery thru ADB/fastboot? (fastboot reboot recovery.) The other thing is what region are you in( India, Asia, European) and does " fastboot getvar all" work from using ADB? Also if your OS is wiped then any RUU flash will reformat your partitions for you and restore your rom. Also were you on kitkat or lollipop stock rom?

You are being kind to me by trying to resolve my problem.
1. I tried again but it did not help.
2. I will try "fastboot reboot recovery", and tell you about the result.
3. Through online chat I gave my IMEI to HTC middle east and they told me that my Software Version is 2.34.401.2.
4. " fastboot getvar all" works.
5. You said "if your OS is wiped then any RUU flash will reformat your partitions". Can we be sure that it is wiped? If we can not be sure, is it necessary to do wipes and formats?
6. I was on Lollipop. 5.0.2.

Since you never unlocked the bootloader before, flashing the stock rom(ruu) should work. Give it a shot. Just make sure you flash the same Android version that you had before as downgrading might not work.

1. That's fine. For now it's OK that it's locked. It's only if your stock recovery is gone that you would need to unlock the bootloader and reflash the stock recovery zip file that you would need to find and flash. Hopefully it's still there just inaccessible for now.
2. Just an idea to verify your recovery is still there
3. OK then that's the firmware you want to flash or higher version
4. From that it should have your CID and version ID but if it's corrupted or wiped it may not show. Those 2 are what you usually use to verify the firmware your flashing is the correct version for your region. You can also verify your radio ID as well as most firmware zips show those numbers as well.
5. It's OK an RUU file will reformat everything and bring it all back to stock. It has all the images in it (radio, system, recovery etc.)
6. That's good. Just make sure you flash that version or higher as going down in firmware isn't possible without S off. If you flash the wrong firmware then the signed RUU shouldn't flash.
Also what region are you in ( India, Asia, Europe?) your phones firmware (CID is your carriers region) that you flash needs to match you're CID.

1. How did you know that the stock recovery is "still there just inaccessible for now"?
2. I will try after 35 hours from now.
4. INFOmodelid: 0P9C70***
INFOcidnum: HTC__J15
The picture attached to original post shows: RADIO-INVALID_VER_INFO
In getvar: INFOversion-baseband: INVALID_VER_INFO
About region: my CID is HTC_J15. And as my search shows, 401 (in my Software Version 2.34.401.2) means Europe.

1. I don't know it's still there that's why I used the word "hopefully. " You should be glad that you can still get into your bootloader because without that access your phone is an expensive paper weight. Thanks for the other info. It's exactly what you need to know to find and flash your firmware.

Dwnload ur respective RUU zip file,rename the file to. "0P9CIMG.zip". put in ext.sd card ,put the phone in hboot mode..it will autimatically detect the file and will ask for permission

You said rename the file to "0P9CIMG.zip".
As getvar shows, my phone's exact modelid is: 0P9C70***
So what is the principle according to which the file should be renamed? that is, what characters of MID should be mentioned before .zip?

If "fastboot reboot recovery" cannot work, it means that I have lost stock recovery.
1. Am I right?
2. If it is not there, is it still possible to flash the rom? Or I must first flash the stock recovery?
3. Is possible lacking of stock recovery what prevents the phone from showing Yes or No page ("Unlocking bootloader?" page)
4. Is it possible just to flask stock recovery for now and leave flashing ROM to some time later?

1. Or it's corrupted but it could still be there.
2. Usually you need to flash back the stock recovery but I've heard of people flashing over their custom recovery with an RUU(rom utility upgrade) and the RUU replaced everything including the stock recovery which is in the file.
3. Not 100% sure on that one. The bootloader is a separate kernel provided with every Android OS so the recovery is separate from it. That one I can't figure out as when you were trying to unlock your bootloader you're firmware was fine at that time I assume. That's the strange part.

You seem to mean I have had problem with unlocking bootloader when my phone was normal.
No. I did not try then. Only after problem I tried unlocking. Please read my post: No "Yes or No" page when Unlocking bootloader! http://forum.xda-developers.com/des...via-htcdev-t3316781/post65371393#post65371393

Hi
Again thanks for the reply.
My 816 A5UL is Asia-HK-CHT
CID-622
I cannot find a RUU that matches.
I believe the Rom could be OPc21000
Which i cannot find anywhere.

What is your "getvar all" information?
(Perhaps I can be able to give you some points.)
