Hi, after attempting to flash a custom ROM to my phone I'm experiencing a big problem, the phone will not boot past the HTC screen. This is obviously very frustrating as the phone is pretty much rendered useless.
I am able to get into the HBOOT menu by holding the Power button and Volume Down and from there am able to select Recovery and enter the ClockWork Mod recovery screens. As you can tell I'm a 100% noob and I really just want to revert my phone to a working state. My network is Vodafone UK. I can't find an RUU above version 3.13 which is apparently what I have (so it tries updating 3.13 to 3.13 and obviously fails).
Any help on getting my phone to work again would be very very appreciated, thanks.

Download a ROM onto your computer, connect to your phone in recovery, mount the sdcard, move the ROM from your computer onto your phone's sdcard, and flash from recovery. No need for RUU.
Dont forget to wipe.
wipe data/factory reset and format all partitions (except sd card) from recovery.
Go to bananagranolas link in her signature, you'll find everything you need there.
Thanks a lot for your help! I was attempting to flash the JellyTime ROM which I understand must have failed to result in my phone not booting properly. Should I flash a stock ROM or will any ROM suffice?

As long as you are S-OFF and have a custom recovery (CMW or 4EXT) you are able to flash any custom rom you like. Just make sure that you make a full wipe before the flashing (wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, format system or in 4ext recovery just choose format all partitions except sdcard).
That should leave you up and running again.
Okay great!
I used the HTCDev tools to unlock my boot loader which I understand is different to S-OFF? Could that be while the ROM flashing failed originally?
EDIT: Upon trying to flash the JellyTime AKOP Rom I get a message saying install from SD card complete but it's still stuck at the HTC screen...

If you have an unlocked bootloder, then you have to flash the rom (previous full wipe of course) then reboot bootloader (from advanced options in CWM) and then in fastboot (you should see fastboot usb in red in the phone when plugged to the pc) you have to flash the boot.img inside the rom zip folder.
Extract that file only (not the whole rom) and from a cmd session or terminal as root (located where the boot.img file is) type:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Once that is done (you will get OKAY. finished near the bottom) you can reboot normally by typing in cmd fastboot reboot or choosing reboot from hboot.
My bootloader now says RELOCKED, how can I unlock it again? (I'm really sorry about this)

Use the token HTC sent you when u unlocked it. and typing in cmd the fastboot unlock command.
Okay done that, thanks a lot!
I'm now looking in the advanced options of CWM, I can see the option "Reboot Recovery" but no "Reboot Bootloader"?

Okay, I wiped all partitions, installed JellyTime AOKP, restarted, went into fastboot, extracted/flash boot file and the rebooted phone.
The phone will now progress from the HTC screen but is now stuck on a black screen, Windows tried to install drivers but failed....

Was the boot.img file flashed successfully?
Yes it said so...
EDIT: Not sure if this is an issue with the ROM of if I'm doing something wrong? I went to the "mounts and storage" section of CWM and clicked all the format options accept sdcard. I then installed ROM, went into fastboot and flashed boot.img, it said OKAY twice then finished. Still stuck at black, backlit screen after HTC screen. ROM is JellyTime by randomblame.

I've just tried flashing the boot image first and then installing JellyTime AOKP, same black screen. Maybe I should try a Gingerbread ROM? That's the Operating system I had before, is there a known working ROM?

EDIT: well, don't I feel stupid. I knew full well from reading that your phone wasn't working, but posted a link to an app. Just not paying attention. Sorry about that.
VBQ24,
You can go back to stock by flashing a stock RUU from your PC.
(Edit: You should relock your bootloader first. you can do so from Hboot. There's an option that says relock bootloader or something like that)
The version of the RUU should be equal or greater to the version that came with your phone. Try this v3.13
However, if you want to flash a custom ROM:
You need to downgrade your device first, get s-off and root, then flash a custom ROM
You need to use the Advanced Ace Hack Kit (AAHK), get it from here.
Make sure to read the manual (called 'effin manual) word by word. There are instructions on how to downgrade.
Follow the instructions, and if you have any questions, ask here.
Hello I used [TOOL] HTC One V All-In-One Toolkit V2.0 [12-23-2012] [PERM ROOT] [Noob-Proof] to unlock my bootloader and flash recovery, proceeded with full backup > wipe > cyan10 > gapps and reboot but it just hangs on the cyan bootup screen.
I've left it for about 15 minutes now but no luck.
Should I try a new kernel, if so which?
Thanks
Sounds like that tool didn't flash your kernel correctly. Your gonna have to use the guides available and use fast boot to flash your kernel.

Ok, i think, you should try it again, from the 1st step:
1.Do a full wipe of your phone(wipe , wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, etc.)
2. Flash a CORRECT on your phone(CM10 Hellboy)
3. Flash the cm10.And don't forget to flash gapps.
4. Reboot.
5.???
6.Profit!
I think this should help. If not, try to saw, if you really do an unlock and root. Or do a restore, and install the cm10 again.
Good Luck!
i will try that again, even my backup from cwm won't boot hmm?
it is saying sON should that be OFF?
ok my own fault, forgot to install superboot lol. sorry to waste your time peoples!
I can't get CM to boot either, I have flashed both of JMZ roms that are sense based but can't get any other rom to boot up. What I'm doing is doing a full wipe, flashing rom, rebooting to bootloader and fastboot flash boot boot.img and then it just sits on splash screen. I have waited 30 mins and nothing. I have also tried flashing boot img first and then rom. I ultimately end up rebooting into recovery and then nandroid back to JMZ rom.
Could it have anything to do with the radio? I haven't purposely updated radio but that is the only thing I have seen mentioned that could cause this?
Check your radio version, of it ends in .9xx then you have the update installed and will need to RUU back to the older version.

Hello, I am In serious need of some help.
My problem is that my device boots up to the HTC logo with the red writing then the lightning bolt shows and the short boot video plays but the sound is all distorted and cuts out half way through. Then it reboots. This is an endless and annoying cycle so I hold power + volume down and run fastboot to get the shutdown option.
Here is what I did.
I was trying to root my device so I unlocked the bootloader. I then was going to use r1-primo-cdma-superboot.zip but my computer was having trouble downloading the file and I ended up getting redirected to Tweaked Stock Boot.img I then flashed the device with fastboot and that .img file and got a broken phone as a result.
Since then I have tried many things including the RUU but I wasn't sure what one to use so I tried multiple RUU files that sounded right however I kept getting "error 115 : Unknown Error" when trying to recover.
I am more than happy to provide any information and I understand some is needed to properly diagnose the issue but I am not sure what information is needed or how to access it.
Also I downloaded PACman v15.3 primoc inyourface09.zip and flashed the kernel. Before I did that I only got the HTC boot image on startup. After flasing the kernel the boot loop included the lightning bolt and short boot video with distorted sound. I could not flash the ROM though because the "/sdcard" dir is an internal directory and the actual sd card dir is "/sd-ext" so the bootloader cant do it. I also tried sideloading the PACman.zip with "adb sideload PACman.zip" with no luck.
Sorry to just throw all this out there but I really don't know what else to do I have been trying to figure this out for 3 days straight lol so I look forward to hearing any advice at all.
Did you try to re flash the super boot img?

Yes I did try that but it didn't work. I think the problem is that I don't have a ROM but I also have no way of flasing the ROM to the device because the sdcard mounts as "/sd-ext" but the bootloader will only look in "/sdcard"
Thanks anyway lol
You can't access the recovery? (if you didn't flash a recovery, download one, cwm or twrp and flash it via fastboot) if you can access it it will let you install roms

I can access the recovery via the bootloader but as I mentioned the bootloader tries to find the .zip file in "/sdcard" and my sdcard mounts to "/sd-ext" also when I try to sideload via adb all I get is the adb help screen. Its like adb sideload <filename.zip> isn't the right command.

Sorry but this sdcard and sdext is confusing, access the recovery and try to install zip from sd card (or sd ext), always put the roms in your micro sd, if from the recovery you can see the rom, then you have no problem at all. Once you install the rom, you go in the bootloader and flash the kernel, but not from the recovery, you flash it via fastboot.

Ok this makes sense. So from what I can tell the device was soft bricked and the /sdcard would not mount. I saw a fix that required the stock recovery but I couldn't get it to work however I did fix the issue by flashing the TWRPrecovery.img and formatted to ext3. Now I can flash ROMs but they keep bootlooping.
The new ROM boots up and about 2 minutes after everything is done it reboots. I have tried a few different ROMs and always wipe the data and everyhting but I cant find any answers.
Any Ideas?

cant boot into recovery
Hi, dont know if im posting this in the right section, but i have my one v rooted and the bootloader unlocked. i flashed the boot.img over and it was successful. i at first kept getting the phone with the triangle and red exclamation mark then after using the all in one tool kit i recieved after trying to boot into recovery the white htc start up screen with "this build is for development purposes only". i have cwm and twrp on the phone and tried to flash the cwm boot.img if im not mistakin. i just need to know why i would be getting this and what steps i may have missed in the process would be helpful. thank you in advance.
I tried installing a custom rom today and I think I messed up really bad, because my phone does not get pass the boot screen and I cannot enter the recovery setting. I think I messed up after entering
fastboot flash boot boot.img
in the command prompt and restarting because I forgot to put the rom zip on my phone. Since then I could not get pass the boot screen and even tried running a backup using CWM, but it didn't help. I then managed to mount my phone and put the rom onto it and installed it, but again it didn't help.
Now my phone can only enter the bootloader, I select hboot and fastboot, but nothing else works. Everytime I select recovery or factory reset I get the htc boot screen and it gets stuck. Does anyone have any solutions?
Thanks
did u backup your phone rom???
if you did u can go to recovery and restore it
and never try to change rom again trust me in that
otherwise i can't help bcuz i did the same mistake
I did make a backup, but like I said I can't enter recovery anymore, so I can't load the backup.
Thanks for trying to help anyway though.

What HBOOT version do you have and what custom ROM are you trying to install?
edit: you didn't need to restart after changing boot.img cause in Recovery you can just go Advanced and then mount USB and copy the ROM or whatever files you want that way.

I have hboot 1.39.0000 and I was trying to install the latest cyanogenmod cm-10-20130106-NIGHTLY-endeavoru.
Yeah I realized this after I restarted and did it get the zip onto the phone. I think I installed it, but the phone is still stuck on the boot screen
UPDATE: Okay I've managed to install CWM recovery, so I think I'm making progress
You had to flash CWM again? Odd..
Anyway, if you happen to encounter the same problem with CM10 I suggest you try some other custom ROM.. Just make sure you "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and then "fastboot erase cache", and if for some reason you decide to format the sdcard or simply forget to add in the ROM zip, you can do it in Recovery when you mount the device as USB under Advanced options. Best of luck!

For going into bootloader press and hold power for 10+ seconds and when screen goes black release power and press and hold volume down until u get into bootloader.then select fastboot from the menu and then flash kernel.then go back to bootloader and from there go into recovery and do a full wipe and then flash cm10

Same result... it seems like everything's working when I do it, but when I reboot I just go back to the same screen w/ the red letters.
i'll help you:
these steps are to be made in the EXACT order:
reboot into bootloader, flash Hellboy latest kernel (for GSM if you are GSM, i don't know if this kernel is for CDMA also. If you have CDMA, please flash Super Sick kernel).
after the kernel is installed, use the menu to reboot to your recovery or use adb and type
Code:
fastboot reboot recovery
when you are in the recovery, do these:
factory reset
wipe system
flash the desired rom - in your case CM10
reboot the phone
let it stay for 1 min after the reboot
reboot again in the recovery (use the menu from within the rom to reboot to recovery)
flash gapps package for jellybean;
reboot the phone
the phone will now stay a little longer until it reboots because dalvik will decompile the google apps you've just installed.
congrats, your phone is working
P.S: the line to flash your kernel onto your device, is:
fastboot flash boot boot.img (you have to rename the kernel you downloaded to "boot.img")

let it stay for 1 min after the reboot
reboot again in the recovery (use the menu from within the rom to reboot to recovery)
flash gapps package for jellybean;
reboot the phone
the phone will now stay a little longer until it reboots because dalvik will decompile the google apps you've just installed.
congrats, your phone is working
P.S: the line to flash your kernel onto your device, is:
fastboot flash boot boot.img (you have to rename the kernel you downloaded to "boot.img")

Thanks! One hiccup, when I try to do factory reset it fails saying, "unable to mount '/sd-ext'. What does that mean?
Okay, I think I'm getting closer! I guess the twrp recovery I was using was bad or bad for my phone, because I flashed an old version and on reboot it went into loading the rom, I guess from a previous flash. I went back into bootloader, flashed supersick kernel, factory reset, wiped system, went to recovery and flashed the rom. I let it reboot and now it's stuck in a boot loop. I went ahead and put it into recovery and flashed gapps and rebooted. Still in a boot loop. Any ideas now? I really appreciate the help...
Try with Cwm...

All in one tool for HTC one V
so, to start, reboot in recovery by using volume DOWN + Power. Once you are in the bootloader press fastboot and plug the USB cable in the phone ( you will see fastboot will change into "fastboot usb") then open the All in one tool and flash the kernel from the link, flash the recovery from the link *(all in one v interface is prety intuitive you cant get lost). and after you do this follow Icebox's steps into CWM. Factory reset, wipe data, flash room, reboot, flash gapps, reboot. enjoy phone!
thanks to all the devs that created these tools !

Same bootloop....
Oh and it said it couldn't mount "sd-ext" during the wipe
I have the could not mount error in CWM sometimes aswell, but what i do is, factory reset, reboot in recovery, wipe data, reboot in recovery, flash rom, reboot to ROM, reboot recovery, flash gapps, reboot rom.

Still boot loopin'.... but the loop is getting longer at least..
did you try to flash the recovery provided in the All In One tool ? there's a recovery image included in the archive there, try to flash that recovery and with that recovery see if you can run the reset to factory

I forgot to mention that I'm virgin mobile cdma version so I can't use that cwm because it's gsm, right? I'm also flashing supersick kernel instead of hellboy. Can I use hellboy with cdma?

ah sorry, i did not know you are primoC, in allinone you also have a CDMA recovery, i dont know about the CDMA kernel but everyone talks about supersick so yeah, try to research what version of supersick you need for CM10 and flash that one
Well, I seem to just be going in circles... nothing I've tried has worked.. still getting boot loop. Flashing supersick and CM10 hasn't worked. I've tried it with cwm and twrp. My factory reset still says failed to mount sd-ext.
I dont know how much different is primoc from primou, but i remember i had a reset to factory in the bootloader aswell. and, as i said, i had the problem with mounting but i rebooted recovery and did each task (reset, flash) in a new recovery boot. i am brainstorming here but i am out of ideas, we are missing something here clearly, but as long as you have acces to the bootloader hope is not lost
