Can you please tell me how to do that ?
tnx alot mate.

Take the boot.img file from the rom.zip and place it the fastboot folder on the pc.
Put the phone in fastboot USB menu
Give the fastboot commands
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
I assume you know fastboot commands because you probably flashed a recovery with commands before.

where can i find the"fastboot folder on the pc" ?
tnx

You need to read up on fastboot commands and how to usr them. You MUST flash the boot.img file with it otherwise a rom will never work !

No you have to put the phone in bootloader menu and connect the phone to the pc. It will show fastboot USB
Then with fastboot commands you have to.flash the boot.img. I'm starting to worry that you have not been reading a lot before starting all of this !!! First know and understand what you are doing and going to try to do ! I

Download fastboot files from here http://d-h.st/18C
Extract files to c:\fastboot
Extract your boot.img from rom.zip to the same directory.
Open a command prompt, then change dir to fastboot dir
Use commands given by Marcel to flash the boot.img
It seems to me that you have never flashed the boot image files before, hence your roms never booted. Because of s-on status for our one X, flashing boot.img files using Fastboot is the only way.
Just a warning. You don't seem to know what is required to get this up and running. Maybe it's a good time to stop and think what you are doing. Just a friendly warning. Please read some first.

Correct !

[Q] My HOX (HTC One X) wont install sense roms

Hello,
I have recently bought a second-hand HTC One X. When i bought the HOX it was rooted running the viper x 2.0.0 rom. I decided to change the rom to cyanogen 10 nightly. It was working fine but then i decided to install slim bean 3.0.0 and this was working fine too (this is what i have on my HOX right now).What i would like to do is install viper x 2.0.0 again or another sense-based rom. However i tried doing this and it does not boot. When i install it, it just loads the htc logo and then reboots again back into clockworkmod recovery?
I have tried various sense-based roms and none of then work? Also i know viper x 2.0.0 works because it was on there when i bought it.
Please can someone give me instuctions on how to do it.
Thanks in advance
P.S When i try to install the viper x or other sense-based rom i flash the boot.img using 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'
I have just fixed it i installed the latest version and worked the one i was installing must have been a ota update? anyway if u are stuck like me read this

after flashing the boot.img try "fastboot erase cache" it should work

erase cache always

Thanks for reply

Yes, i know this because i use winrar to extract the boot.img from the viperx.zip
What do u think i should do to make it work?
I was thinking do i need to flash a kernel that works for the viperx to work or does the viperx.zip already have a kernel inside the file?
At the moment i have : 2.6.39.4-cyanogenmod because i have slimbean installed which is based on cm10

Full wipe, that's all I can think of.

1. go to bootloader and hit fastboot option
2. fastboot erase cache
3. fastboot flash boot boot.img (boot.img from the viperx.zip)
4. fastboot erase cache
5. disconect the phone from USB and go to the recovery
6. wipe data/factory reset
7. wipe cache
8. mounts & storage format system , data , cache
9. go to advanced and wipe dalvic cache
10. flash the rom
11. I rebooted the HOX in the aroma installer
12. and then it just boots on htc logo then back into recovery?!?
Also the weird thing is only sense-based roms don't work? And all the sense-based roms i have tried use aroma installer, maybe this could be to do with it?

First install rom then boot.img.

Do it all over but this time install this zipfile before flashing the rom in recovery

Put this file on the sd card and flash it in recovery like a rom, when this completed install the blade rom ! Maybe it helps
Ps it's a superwipe script !

Did not work!
It didnt work why do u think its not working?
When i install the desense version it takes less than 30secs to install and it says
"Installing update package"
But it cant be an update because it was 280mb and the 2.0.0 release is also 280mb?
Thanks for help any more suggestions?

Did u check the checksum of the rom ? Maybe bad downloads, are u using some download manager or accelerater ? Those things might cause trouble ?
Just thinking out loud here !

The only thing i can think of is a bad download .....
If you flashed the kernel in fastboot, did a full wipe (superwipe script) and flash the rom it should boot ... It's just as simple as that !
And I don't see a modified boot.img in the OP of the blade rom either so that's not it !
I would gladly test it on my hox with 1.36 hboot but I can't until tomorrow in the evening .a

when you said you still can boot into viperx, you reflash the viperx ROM or just a reboot after failed attempt to boot Blade, it boots to viperx ?
Edit: It is either you use the superwipe script provided by MarcelHofs to really make a full wipe
or on your previous step that you mentioned:
1)flash boot .img
2)wipe date/factory reset
3)Wipe cache
4)wipe davlik cache
** format system <---- do this too
5)install zip from sd card
6)then reboot...
7)then stuch on htc logo on boot? it should boot

I think there is no need for you to waste your time to test the ROM. If he run your superwipe script, it should boot.
Check your PM.

What I personally did:
1. format /system
2. wipe data/factory reset
3. clear dalvik and erase cache
4. flash ROM
5. flash boot.img
No problem..

[Q] HEEEELLLLLLP! Bootloop . .

Hi all,
Really hoping someone can help me with this one.
I was quite happily flashing miui Rom to my one x from the Viper rom. . . Unfortunately after using fast boot for the boot image and CWM v5.8.4.0 to then flash the zip I have entered a boot loop from which none of the following has worked:
Recovery through CWM
Fast booted the original boot img i was using previously and tried recovery again
Tried factory reset and wipe everything and then fastbooted my previous boot.img and viper rom. . . .same issue (Hanging on Htc screen)
Tried the same with the bindroid rom too but no joy.
If I let the Rom continually reboot itself then I can get to the main screen on both Miui and the bindroid Rom but then both become unresponsive and then ultimately reboot again. . .
I've searched all over and cant find a resolution for this. .. . . .
Has anyone got any suggestions as to what it may be and what i can do?
Thank in advance for your help!!!!!!!!!!!

dont know if this has any relevance . . .

Hi Matt . . . If you mean factory reset in recovery . . .yes tried that. . . the thing i'm most perplexed with is when I re run the viper rom install, everything appears to go smoothly. . . no issues until it comes to actually having the ROM start up. (sorry for delay, has me as a new user one post every five mins max)

follow this steps:
1-download again the miui rom
2-go into fastboot
3- type:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Code:
fastboot erase cache
4-go into recovery
5-make a full wipe (cache, dalvik, data, system)
6-flash the rom and reboot

Thats just odd!
I was in the middle of doing a spaz check following your instructions to the letter. . .I "re fastbooted" the boot.img again as per the start of process for the viper Rom whilst wating for the Miui Rom to redownload (the last action was to run the viper install thingy prior to this) Then when I went to go into fastboot again to do all the wipes. the phone booted as if nothing had ever been changed!
