Ok, so..my Girlfriend tried to root the phone herself and i think something went wrong...actually i know something went wrong..when i load up the Bootloader it gives me a few NO IMAGE found things on the SD card....but the real issue arises when i try to load a ROM onto the phone it will function for like 5 maybe 6 mintues then restart.
I tried to restore the phone to before roms were attempted to be installed on it, and the phone just hangs on the HTC screen and doesn't move.
I've tried installing Different Kernels using the whole fastboot flash boot boot.img method and none of the kernels i install seem to help..
I'm not 100% familiar with this phone since i myself use a S2 Skyrocket..
So my real question is..is there any way to get this phone back to square one so i can reinstall HBoot or whatever its called, or is there a way from where i'm at to stop this phone from constantly rebooting itself?
i don't think because there is no way to reinstall Hboot , only it can be done by HTC service centre but i will advice you to root it again from beginning , if your bootloader is already unlocked then try to root HOV , and after rooting i will suggest you to use PA rom with cm10 hellboy kernel
The no image thing is normal.not to worry.
Which Rom did you try to install?
Edit:is the phone gsm or cdma?

I was trying to install that one "Pacman"
It gets about to the point where she would enter her information for account sync and then it would just reboot.
and the phone is CDMA through Virgin Mobile
And about the CM10 thing, i was reading that CM10 doesn't work with the camera, and she needs the camera for work to send pics to her other managers
Ok,your phone is completely normal.
Now,do this in order
Put Rom and gapps in sdcard
Put the kernel in fastboot/platform-tools folder
Boot into bootloader and select fastboot.
flash kernel using the command you described in OP
Enter recovery.do a full wipe,i.e,factory reset,wipe cache,wipe.dalvik cache.also,go into mounts and storage and format every partition,except sdcard.
Then flash the Rom.zip,boot into Rom and then again into recovery and flash gapps.

Ok doing that now, Do i format the/sd-ext? or just leave that alone with the sdcard
sd-ext format isn't supported so you may as well leave it.and,use the boot.img inside the zip,that is the supersick kernel.

Boot into Rom,wait for 5mins and then flash gapps.

Are you using the proper command to flash the boot.img?i.e,
fastboot flash boot boot.img

Go into fastboot,flash the kernel found inside the backup and then restore it.

im not sure but i remember on my g2x you could hook up phone from recovery mode and mount it on the computer with sd card .. have you looked around in CWM? This is your fault to be honest you deserve this for not making a NAND back up. ALWAys MAKE A BACK UP! period. There is a reason why devs and everyone else stress' it so much.
Sert00 is right. Flash any [previously] working ROM on it. It will be a dirty flash and some stuff won't work, but you'll be able to backup your data. You'll reflash again later

Alright this is extremely complicated to explain so bear with me.
Somethings to explain first:
- I have an HTC One V CDMA VM USA phone
- I have tried this multiple times
Okay first off, I've unlocked bootloader and rooted my phone (SuperSU). I decided to flash ClockWork Mod as my recovery. So I boot my phone in recovery and flash the AOKP rom. I make a nandroid backup. I then wipe everything (cache, delvik, data). I flash rom then gapps. I flashed JellyBoot5.zip to make sure my kernel files are correct (I'm using AOKP stable build Oct 17 2012). I then boot into bootloader and flash the boot.img "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
It would continually run in "Initiating Swagger" - so I tried to delete and reflash again. Only this time I am stuck in a complete boot loop. It would say "Initiating Swagger" then load up the start up screen, stutter for 2 seconds, move again, freeze, reboot. It is stuck in this process again and again and again. I flashed the correct kernel according to the author of AOKP.
This isn't my first time doing this. I have already unlocked the bootloader two previous times (I used RUU on my device twice already just to get it back to stock.
Here's the freaking kicker though, when i restored my back up it did the exact same thing on stock rom as it did the AOKP rom. This makes me seem there isn't a corrupted download or anything like that but wow is this starting to get on my nervous. I need extreme help. I've looked everywhere on the internet and nothing came up. I even used Jellyboot5 and which
What the heck is it? Is it a performance issue, or a SuperSU position. Or could it be something with the kernel?
I've yet to hear the right suggestion so I'm all ears.
Ok u need to flash a diff kernel
Problem solved
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app
first thing first, don't restore all your data from sense roms until you boot up the rom for the first time.
second thing, after you boot up into the rom, go to Settings - Performance and lower down the maximum overclock to a respectable position (1024).
do this and keep me in the loop. i will be glad to help you further,
Which boot.img are you flashing with fastboot? You need to open the kernel zip file with 7zip, copy the boot.img to your fastboot folder, flash the Rom, flash gapps, flash the kernel zip all in recovery. Then reboot into bootloader, and flash the boot.img using fastboot. I have used jellyboot5 and sickkernel V2 successfully with AOKP.

You don't? So if Jellyboot5 is in a zip, I just extract the boot.img, but I don't flash the actual zip, correct? I've flashed a different kernel but no luck.
Could you give me maybe some exact directions to using the AOKP rom, I used the ones on his post but for me they aren't detailed enough. I will hit thanks for sure
I'll let you know if this works later on. I can't do anything till tonight because I'm at school right now.

now boot ur phone in fastboot(press the poer button and volume down for 15+ sec)
connect via usb it shud show fastboot usb
now direct the cmd to the directory(like cd:\android\)
paste the boot file in that and rename to boot.img
now write "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
and then fastboot reboot

oh, ok, sorry for my ignorance. i thought he is flashing the whole boot.img from recovery (if it is in a zip format).so you need to flash boot.img through fastboot, go to recovery, full wipe everything (system, data, cache partition), flash your rom and after that flash the jellyboot.zip that has the needed files. reboot and if you did everything correctly, it SHOULD work!
Okay, so I decided to root and flash a new rom on my phone since I didn't like my stock one. I went through all the processes (I think). I flashed the recovery, installed superu or whatever its called, wiped my phones rom, tried to flash a rom called paranoid android and it said it failed. I then realized I forgot to make a backup.... i restarted my phone and now it's stuck in the 'HTC quietly brilliant' screen. I have no idea what to do

If you have Virgin Mobile then the RUU you want is called

Get in the recovery, mounts and storage, mount usb storage. Now the computer will open your sd card folder, so just put the rom there and flash it normally. For the kernel, get to the hboot connect the phone to the computer and wait that it says fast boot usb, then put the kernel in the fast boot folder on your computer, run the cmd, get to the fast boot folder and type fastboot flash boot (your kernel).img

Okay I got my kernal flashed and a rom with cyanogenmod thing. But it seems to freeze and then reboot by itself a lot.. I feel helpless
do a full wipe from recovery.
Sent from my ST25i
Full wipe, then try a different ROM? I liked CM10 but I guess it doesn't like me back
yeah,you also have to install its specific kernel
Okay I got the cdma pacman rom and its specified kernel. It STILL reboots after 30 seconds. Someone in that thread mentioned flashing over a stock rom, but that just confuses me. I just want to be able to make some calls badly
now fool n final do this.>>>
1. download rom and gapps,transfer them to root of SD card
2. extract boot.img(the kernel) from ROM zip and place it in fastboot folder(or use whichever kernel prescribed by the dev)
3. go into bootloader, FIRST flash the boot.img in fastboot(does the screen say FASTBOOT USB when u connect the phone to the PC?)
4. go into recovery, then FULL WIPE-factory reset, erase cache and dalvik cache.
5. then flash the ROM.
6. boot into the rom.then again enter into recovery and then flash gapps.
do the above steps in the same order all over again....
Full*
You most likely have the new update and radio. The newer one ends in .9xx, the one you need ends in .5xx. Can't remember the exact numbers. Download and install the RUU with Sprint in the name and you will be able install a custom Rom and kernel.
Okay thanks I will try that.
Okay i got the ruu went through the steps and it said i had the incorrect ruu for my phone. my cid is htsi 005 and i cant find the ruu for that cid :l

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!

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!

Yeah CWM didn't load up, but I got it working again. Well it seems I'm back to getting the rom to install and being stuck at the boot screen again, so maybe I just need to use a different rom. Thanks for the help though
Okay, I've tried installing a few roms, but unfortunately I'm still on the boot screen, I can sometimes even reach the cyanogenmod boot screen, but get stuck there. I've read that this might be kernel issue, does anyone have any ideas?
CM10 requires a special boot.img for newer hboots. Check post 9308 in CM10 thread.

I think I really screwed up my phone, I was trying to get my Google play store working on my phone by adjusting the Dpi (read it somewhere on the internet), so I rebooted and it wouldn't load my rom/system anymore. But the problem now is, is that I can't acces my sd card with HBOOT or similar things, fastboot does see my device but if I try sending files to it the next error appears:
C:\Users\Elke\Desktop\r1-primo-superboot>fastboot flash system shpongle.zip
sending 'system' (131180 KB)... FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))
Als this error keeps occuring:
C:\Users\Elke\Desktop\r1-primo-superboot>fastboot flash boot boot.img
< waiting for device >
sending 'boot' (2988 KB)... FAILED (status malformed (1 bytes))
Does anybody know what I should do to get my phone working again? Because I really need my phone (it contains all my appointments and homework and stuff)
PS: If you need more information on my phone just ask for it and I'll try my best to find it!
PPS: Thanks in advance!
I think I fixed it
After numerous attempts my phone is responding to some fastboot commands, so I think I got it working again
Edit:
Now my phone is stuck at the HTC startup screen

Are you sure you flashed the right kernel for the ROM as stated in it's OP?

heyy man, if you have a custom recovery already installed, use that to wipe your phone and install the new rom
then pull the boot.img out of the rom .zip you are trying to use, then you need to "fastboot flash boot d:/boot.img" (of course, to your boot.img location)
hope this helps
Yes

Yes I'm sure I flashed the boot-HELLBOY-20130514.img before and then it worked perfectly, but now it got stuck on the htc screen...

The custom ROM is no longer on my phone due to lack of space, and here is the problem I can't acces my SD card (Won't show up in my computer) in bootloader (to transfer the needed files) Is there someway to transfer my files with fastboot? or ADB or something like that?
Damn

umm no u can get to recovery by holding down power button until your screen turns off and then holding your volume DOWN button
if u have full wiped b4 there's no need to do it again

I just flashed the boot image you gave me, but it's still stuck at the HTC screen.
Dammit again
I have to go to school in about 2 minutes so here is the status of my phone
-just flashed new kernel, but still stuck at HTC screen
-In bootloader when I select my customrecovery (TWRP) it shows HTC with a loadboar in the right-upper corner, then that loadingbar disappears and it shows just HTC (with red lettering underneath : This build... etc) and gets stuck again.
Thanks for the help so far but my phone is still broken dammit :c
Since you've got fastboot working again, re flash your custom recovery first.
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Then boot into recovery.
Now you can go into >advance>mount>mount USB storage
( using TWPR )
Copy the custom Rom to your pc
Unmount USB storage move to >wipe cashe, dalvick cache, factory reset, system
Wipe everything.
Move to > install and flash Rom
Once install is finished click the wipe cashe/dalvick.
Go back to the home screen in TWRP click >reboot> bootloader
Now flash your kernel. fastboot flash boot boot.img
Once finished fastboot reboot
I think you might have had a bad recovery flash.

I tried flashing the newest recovery (TWRP) but no luck, any advice and which recovery rom/img I should use?
Are you primoc or primou?

I'm primoc I've got everything you'll need if you are too
If you're primou, frankly I'm sorry but I wouldn't be able to help you with what recovery/boot.img or Rom to use because I have not and will not be able to test them before I suggest them.
Just not good help practice.
