[Q] Can flashing a custom ROM harm the phone's board ?!

I was trying to flash a custom ROM to my my htc DHD, changing the phone's ROM from Android Revolution HD 7.0.4 to a Miui ROM. During the process the mobile went to a complete black screen with nothing else happening, I opened the bootloader and the same thing happens when I try to boot to Recovery, but it still goes in fastboot when I connect the phone to the laptop, so I thought that I've mistakenly deleted the Recovery files from the phone, I tried to push the files using adb but it always said that the device is not found, after several tries I decided to pay a visit to htc customer service where they told me that the phone's board was harmed during the process, having bad history with htc customer service with 2 previous visits both went horribly wrong and they didn't even have the phone checked, only tried to boot it and then jumped to the conclusion, I've had to ask you people for help !!
Here is how I tried to flash the ROM to the already rooted mobile:
I some how thought about using the following method to change the recovery from EXT4 to ClockworkMOD .. I don't know what I was thinking or how high I was at that moment but it really happened using the Advanced Ace Hack Kit
Then the mobile has gone black and story I told before happened, my question now is, can this process or any software development process harm the phone's board by any means ?! and could this problem I'm facing be really with the phones board ?!
No, just head back to the hack kit forum there is a link there for IRC chat help from the guys there. You may have just corrupted your bootloader image. Those working in customer service can't tell you which end is their brain and which end is their rear

I've tried to contact them with the problem when it first happened but they refused to help me telling that I've used the kit for what it's not meant for .. they were kind of arrogant but .. they've got a point !
You will need to install the stock ATT gingerbread ROM using your PC: http://dl4.htc.com/RUU_Ace_Gingerbre...368_signed.exe You will then have to re-root using the Hack Kit.

No problem just remember read search and learn before you try anything on your phone, we all had to do it. Also stick with ext4 for rom flashing its what we all use. I dont even bother with rom manager anymore.
Welcome to XDA and enjoy the learning.

google the "RUU Ace Gingerbread S Cingular US 2.47.502.7 Radio 12.56.60.25 26.10.04.03 M release 200368 signed" then swich on the mobile and let load to the black screen that used to pop up to me, attach the mobile to the laptop and launch the stock ROM .. it'll do everything and leave the mobile with the stock unrooted ROM, then reroot the device with the aahk.

Help me plzzzz.

Please give more info. For starts, does the led lit up when you connect to the charger? And what happens when you connect your device to your PC?
Does it detect any new driver?

i need some files from a working phone to try to unbrick mine

hey
long story short, i bricked my nitro hd by mistake while going back to stock (typo error in dd command) and i need some files from a working phone to attempt a last attempt to save it before i send it to Jtagging service.
there is a small program in this thread that will collect all the bootloaders i need (it needs root access)
if you're in windows you should run backup.bat from Brixfix-2-1.zip.
if you're in linux then you should run get-part.sh and getpartbin.py
thanks in advance

it doesnt have all the files i need (i mistakenly overwritten mmcblk0p2 when i was supposed to overwrite mmcblk0p27, i guess thats SBL1..
the little program in the thread i mentioned can bring me all the files i need (including SBLs and other files)
thanks for the reply though
If your phone is in unbooteable state, black screen, then you most probably need jtag. Describe the state of the phone.

its black screen , and i was getting hsusb_qdload when connecting it to the computer (code 9008) , then i tried a chines program that flashes files to the emmc .. all i had was the su640 files (they were included in the same chines thread , p930 was mentioned there) ..
after the flash , its still black screen but now windows installs new drivers (code 9025) - check the attached photo.
as far as my understanding goes this is sd mode.. the flashing software is still able to see the cellphone, so i want to try to flash the original files this time and see what happens before i spend 80$ on jtagging

This is Qualcomm mode. Dunno why you got two different ids but I might give you the files in a day or two. I have a p930.

[q] htc one xl cant go into recovery

I'm sorry, I might be in the wrong forum but since there's no ONE XL lol. So I bought this ONE XL from Hong Kong and I'm in Mexico. I got the phone and everything was great until it prompted me to update my software so I clicked yes, it updated to 4.1 something with sense 4+ and then it prompted me to update again so I clicked yes. Thing is it updated to 4.2.2 with sense 5. Everything was good until I realized I could access my phone as storage divice so I can't transfer file in or out of it. There is no CONNECT TO PC option. And another thing, it erased the SPANISH phone language (i need it because i share the phone with my gf). So I did some research and found out about morelocale 2 which would allow me to add Spanish back again but turns out I need SU access. So I thought it would be much easier to just flash a rom and use something with 4.0.3 again. The phone was already sim-unlocked and with S-OFF so all I did was unlock the bootloader but when I flash a recovery like clorckwork or twrp it goes to a white HTC SCREEN LOGO and in red letters thes this "this build is made for development purposes only...." and then it reboots like 3 times and starts the phone up normal again. Anyone knows what can I do? Or what am I doing wrong? Thanks.
Sorry about the long explanation.
There is HTC one XL forum. (AT&T, Rogers) go there
And yes jellybean doesn't support UMS anymore, only MTP.

Huh? One XL right here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-x-att
I'm sorry, I just found it too. Thanks though. But still, does anyone have the same problem? How do you transfer files back and forth? And if I flash it back to 4.0.3, will that solve my problem? Thanks.
