You have a very old h-boot so you need to upgrade it first!!
So you need to flash the stock rom for your hboot or the ruu of your hboot and then when the hboot is 1.36 or 1.39 are the two best, you can flash a rom without problems!!
You dont have to unlock bootloader because is unlocked!

1: no
2: no
3: yes (explain at the end)
4: flash a new custom rom (better then stock)
5: no
6: you install a new rom by
Flashing the boot.img with fastboot commands, make a FULL wipe in recovery and install a new rom.
The easiest way to get you upgraded is to get you to full stock and update via official HTC ota
Can you perform a fastboot command :
Fastboot getvar version-main
Please post the number

Try a reboot of the pc and the phone ..... It should work. All the things seems to be in order. Maybe you have another pc around to test it on.

[Q] Desire HD, I bought it with a problem

Hello, I'm from Bulgaria, I bought a Desire HD that was with relocked bootloader. I unlocked the bootloader with htcdev.com. Now it is unlock. The phone not load any ROM, can,'t make recovery from bootloader, can't make factory reset from bootloader. I tried to flash several stock ROMs before and after unlocking, but getting a different errors. Attempted ROMs are with the same RADIO. I Tried this-
just copy the rom.zip from temp folder of your user name on pc while running that RUU at the next of second step..i mean while you double click of the RUU then you the first prompt that you must thick "Understand blah blah blah.." then click next..you must hold setup at this step..and tried search the rom.zip in your temp folder of your pc and copied to another folder..then rename it to PD98IMG.zip and put in to the root of your sd card..then boot the phone to bootloader mode..wait until bootloader reading and checking the PD98IMG.zip file..then ask you to confirm if you wanna flash it.. but without success. Stay on the white screen with grenn HTC logo when is turned on, and when I tried to make recovery or factory reset. When the stock ROM start to install (before give me a error ) the screen stay on grey HTC logo on Black screen. Can anyone help me? I attached a picture of Bootloader-

Uhh, have you actually installed recovery - if you haven't well that's why.
Go here: http://www.4ext.net/ddl/ace/recovery.zip
Extract the files
Copy recovery img to your adb.exe folder (make sure fastboot.exe is there)
Turn on your phone into fastboot mode
CD to that directory and type in "fastboot devices"
Confirm it says your serial
Then type in "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
Now you have recovery (it means you can flash roms and kernels and mods and anything flashable apart from radios and firmwares)

I did this correctly, everything is OK, but now what? I tried to install stock ROM, but with no result. Here is a pictures of instalation-

now select recovery, and install ROM there

don't install stock rom or RUU again..
just installing custom rom (you can search and choice a custom rom in "Desire HD Android Development") and installing the rom.zip file from 4ext recovery (install zip from sd card)..don't forget to flashing boot.img too (flashing under FASTBOOT mode with fastboot command "fastboot flash boot boot.img").. that the boot.img are extracted from the rom.zip file that you had already installed..
hope this can help..

did you already installing 4ext recovery..?, if so..to go that recovery then you just need select Recovery from your bootloader menu..then you can installing custom rom from there..
just copied your custom rom file to the root of your sd card..this mean just placed inside your sdcard..don't placed inside any folder..then after that you can installing that rom from 4ext recovery
hope this can help..

I made this from second post, but can't see any difference in phone or bootloader. When I pushed recovery from original bootmenu, came white screen with green HTC logo with one vibration end nothing happend

Just repeat all the step in second post...just this time you show me the out put from cmd...after you typing command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

because i see you're success flashing a custom recovery that you already show me above in attchment file before...
if your bootloader are already locked..then you must unlocking again first...then after that you can continued flashing custom recovery..

Thank you ! Now the bootloader is unlocked, and I did that from the second post with already unlocked bootloader. Still nothing can I do.

just tried installing another custom recovery...just try download it TWRP recovery from here.. copied to your adb.exe and fastboot.exe folder and flashing it through FASTBOOT mode with command .. "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-ace.img"
hope this time your phone will had a custom recovery installed
good luck.

to do that...firstly just find the cid num of your phone by command through fastboot "fastboot getvar all" (you can find your cid in the INFO CIDNUM XXXXXXXX) if you wanna show me the output of that command..don't forget just remove your imei and serial number first..
after you find your cid num you can find the right RUU for your phone..just check it here to find what RUU you must download it..and just download it the RUU with same main version of your phone or higher version than yours..
after that just relocked your bootloader through fastboot "fastboot oem lock"...now you can continued flashing that RUU

[Q] Fastboot Commands On Phone Startup

I have a HTC Desire HD that I have tried recently to S-off and root, plus install a custom ROM. I downgraded it to 2.3 before using the AAHK to try and root it. I ran the program waited for it to finish (well at least it looked like it had finished) and a got presented with a black screen with the HTC logo in the middle and 4 warning triangles, one at each corner.
If I try all the button combinations to get into recovery mode, fastboot mode etc. nothing happens. If I connect it to my PC and run 'adb devices' It shows none. I thought my phone was completely and utterly broken until I tried, 'fastboot boot boot.img', the boot image was the one I had extracted from the custom ROM I wanted to install and it loaded, no problem, It was as if I had installed it on my phone because it ran fine.
That until I rebooted my phone, it went back to the black screen
I sent the 'fastboot boot boot.img' command back to my phone and presto, it works! All my data is stored it was as if nothing had happened.
Now, I know that if my phone powers off and goes back on It will stay on that black screen until I send the command from the computer, which is a pain, but it works.
Is there a way to:
A) Fix it so it goes to my ROM every time instead of black screen?
B) Run the fastboot command automatically on the phone at startup .e.g IF THE CODE WAS IN ESSENCE: "boot to black screen" we could change it to "boot to boot.img from SD card"?
P.S I can also boot the recovery.img from fastboot in the same way as I did with the boot.img so the screen changes to CWM:good:

Your phone is booting in RUU mode.So probably the only solution for you should be to flash the right RUU for your device.As long as you are S-OFF you can flash any RUU you like.(You just need the right RUU for your CID or to give your device SuperCID).
While you are in RUU mode screen give the command fastboot getvar all and copy-paste everything it prints here (except from your imei number and your device serial number.)

You can find an RUU for your device here.
You can download the latest european RUU from here.
About your first question we need those informations to tell you what would the better solution for your device according those informations.
(For example hboot version, CID number, MID number, S-ON/S-OFF state.Even version-main number would probably help us to find what RUU you had installed and if exists a better solution for you instead of flashing the latest RUU or the same one)

Of course not!An RUU will flash the factory ROM in your phone.But you can always take a nandroid backup of your custom rom using your custom recovery and recover it after the correct flash of an RUU.You have to relock your bootloader using the command fastboot oem lock when you are in bootloader in order to flash the RUU of your choice.
After the flash you have to unlock your bootloader again with htc_dev and flash the recovery of you choice.(If you are S-OFFed you don't need to unlock your bootloader again.Just flash a recovery from RUU mode).As long as you have a custom recovery you can restore a previous nandroid backup or to make a fresh install the rom of your choice.(I suggest you to make a fresh install of your rom instead of restoring a nandroid backup).
If you want to restore specific apps or data from a nandroid backup you can use for example titanium backup.I would also suggest you to make a backup of our contacts (extract from your default app) before you make the nandroid.

If my phone is S-Off:
1. Lock Bootloader
2. Flash RRU (Command?)
3. Reflash ROM (Proper way?)
Else:
1. Lock bootloader
2. flash RRU
3. Unlock with htc-dev
4. Reflash
^ Is this right? And how do I flash the ROM properly so I don't have this problem again
Thanks

By relocking your bootloader you won't make it S-ON.(Have you succeded S-OFF?)
You have just to relock your bootloader only for htc_dev way.
Instead of ***Unlocked*** in the top of your bootloader you should be able to see after the lock ***Relocked***.After you flash an RUU it should say ***Locked***.But as long as you are S-OFFed the S-OFF remains.
If you give us the print of the command fastboot getvar all we could help you further.

First of all, The Command fastboot flash recovery boot.img isnt going to work. Its a bad command.
What that command means is.. You are telling fastboot to flash a kernel into the recovery partition. Which is wrong.
What you should do is search for a recovery like 4ext recovery for the DHD from here(that was my favourite recovery),
If the above link doesnt open, try using this one(Its CWM.)
flash it using the command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
After its done enter this command
Code:
fastboot reboot bootloader
which should reboot into the bootloader.
From there use the volume buttons to navigate your way recovery and press the power key.
You should be in the 4ext recovery screen.
From there you can flash any rom you want.
I would recommend SVHD rom as it was stable and also my favourite.
Or
You could make a recovery which can be flashed through bootloader.
Here are the steps
Download the recovery i posted a few lines up.
create a text file and name it android-info.txt
Open the file
Now copy these into it.
Code:
modelid: PD9810000
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__E11
cidnum: HTC__N34
cidnum: HTC__203
cidnum: HTC__102
cidnum: HTC__405
cidnum: HTC__Y13
cidnum: HTC__A07
cidnum: HTC__304
cidnum: HTC__032
mainver: 2.50.405.2
hbootpreupdate:12
Now save it and close that file.
Next highlight recovery.img,android-info.txt and use your favourite compressing software to compress those two files into a zip file. DOnt change the compression settings, use the default ones.(You could use winrar)
Now rename the compressed file to PD98IMG.zip and copy it onto ur sdcard and reboot your device into bootloader.
It would scan for factory files.
Ones it detect the file, press the volume up key for it to flash it.
Once its done, you reboot into recovery.
If you find any difficulties, feel free to ask.

Check for maximus or arhd (NOT the lollipop versions but a slight older one) in the dev section or get a new stock backup matching your version number in the general section - collection of firmwares, stock backups and more by @exocetdj
And if that doesn't give you the correct steps and files than try the specific Sprint M8 support subforum

Ah i see in the Sprint section. Maybe it's good to mention that too in the first reply because this is the international section and therefore doesn't hold Sprint ruu files. So that confused me a bit. Thanks for the link

My bad I didn't realize that

Thanks both. Really appreciated your advice. I tried steps in below link

If you have a s-on device you need to relock the bootloader before running the ruu.exe !

Hi
I relock the bootloader and did the prrevious steps. Now its worked.
Now it shows "RELOCKED" in the bootloader menu.
Is it the normal sign ?

Yes as you are s-on that's normal. Only with s-off you can change those flags to LOCKED

Can't find any rom working with my htc

My own rom is almost wrecked every time i start the phone it restarts .. i have tried a dozen of roms non have worked
Please please please
Any one can help me

To begin with your HBOOT is an old version. Upgrade it and then flash the ROM you want or find the right RUU to flash
You will need HBOOT 1.39 at least. See this link

First of all i want to thank you very very much for your replay
So i tried what you said and i successfully updated the hboot to 1.39
then did a bootloader reboot but when the phone restarts it stucks on (white htc one screen) can't load to the standard screen.. i pressed the power button for 5 sec and the phone restarted .. pressed the vol down and entered the boot loader .. at boot loader if i tried to access the recovery or factory reset the phone simply display a black screen and downloading bar lookalike for 5 sec then restarts
I tried to flash a rom via cmd but i got the following error:
FAILED (remote: Heap not enough)
Ps: i can't try the ruu ENDEAVOR cuz the phone can't access the standard screen

After flashing a new HBOOT your bootloader is now locked. It needs to be unlocked
take a look at this link and it will help you unlock your bootloader. Then you can flash a costume recovery and then flash your ROM
http://onexroot.com/one-x-root/how-to-root-one-x/
You need to do a bit of reading about all the steps needed for getting the ROM you want. Jumping in to quick could cause problems. Luckily you have S_ON so that will help prevent making big mistakes

Thank you again i really appreciate your help
So i did what you said and flashed a costume recovery .. I've tried both clockwork and philz toch 6 .. i successfully flashed both but neither i could flash a rom with ..
Every time i try new rom i get installation aborted
And if i try to flash with cmd i get Failure (heap not enough)
What can i do now ?? ?

What commands are are you using in CMD to flash your ROM
Did you Flash boot.img from the ROM before flashing ROM
I assume you can get to fastboot mode and recovery mode?
Please do command fastboot getvar version-main and post result

Version-main: 3.14.401.31
I tried the following cmd commands in fastboot :
Fastboot oem rebootruu
Fastboot flash zip 3.zip
And I got the following error message :
Failed <remote: heap not enough >
I tried to flash the boot.img before I flash the rom and get the next error message :
Failed <remote: err = 0xa>
I tried to wipe everything and push the rom to Sdcard with adb push command and tried to flash it via recovery cwm and philz but every time I got (installation aborted ) I tried to install super su the same way and it worked so I guess the rom is not suitable for my device I tried to flash two more roms but with no luck I always get the same error

Not sure what you have done. Try this.
Download the following RUU
http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo...Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_302015_signed.exe
Put phone in fastboot mode
connect to PC and make sure it says fastboot USB
Open command prompt from what ever folder you fastboot files are in.
type fastboot oem lock (this will lock your bootloader )
Run this RUU
Let me know

Thank you very very very very very much u saved my mobile :highfive:
I really appreciate your help and i am thankful to you
Every thing works now .. thaaaaaaank you <3

You are welcome
Note that your bootloader will now be locked and your phone is not rooted.
If you want to experiment with custom ROMs when you must (FIRST) unlock the bootloader and (SECOND) root your phone
onexroot.com is a good site with tutorials to help you.
