I used the right command but kernel not working

What happens when you type this command? CMD should show something like this:
Code:

Remember to rename kernel file to "boot.img" and run CMD with administrator rights.

You seem pretty competent when it comes to fastboot so can you help me with something? Every time i want to flash a new kernel after opening CMD I have to change directory to a folder containing boot.img and its pretty frustrating for me. Is there a folder for img files so fastboot will find them automatically? I've thought about creating a shortcut so CMD will open in right directory automatically but I'm lazy.

To be 100 % honest not sure!I know in windows you can change default opening behavior of directories to open to your favorite folder etc,I once did ita long time ago but forgot how to
But what your suggesting sounds like a good idea:good: yep me lazy too don't use cmd much to be honest I use Doomlord's toolbox lol

So it looks like a customized shortcut is my only option. I like fastboot because its simple and reliable also typing stuff in black window is always cool. Life on the edge *****es!

"Shift + Right Click" opens a command window in whatever folder you are in.

If it hot boots then it should flashboot and usually doesn't because People use the wrong command.

ALT + Right Click" opens a command window in whatever folder you are in.

Not on windows 8. I could do a shift + right click combo for "open cmd here" but this is useless because fastboot needs to be running with administrator rights. To be honest I don't care anymore because I've made a shortcut for opening cmd in a right folder with admin rights and even fancy blue font (*****es love blue fonts).

Its pretty bad :c you have a bad block in your kernel "partition" and its preventing you flashing kernels. As far as I know this can't be fixed. You can't flash custom kernels I'm sorry :<
edit
It's a physical error in a memory chip in your phone. After searching for more info I think there is nothing you can do.

Unlocking & Flashing Arc S with Linux OS

Hi all,
It seams to be assumed everyone is using windows these days?
Well if your using Linux this might help -
Get unlock key from sony HERE
Download SDK Manager HERE
Recommend creating folder in home called Android Development and placing zip file in there, then extract in same folder.
Download your selected Kernel & Rom from HERE
Recommend creating folder called Xperia Arc and place both Kernel & Rom there, then copy the Kernel to the Platform-Tools folder which is in the SDK folder, in the adt bundle folder (SDK Manager Download).
Copy the Rom to the sd card (still zipped)
Enable USB Debug mode in Developer Options in phone settings menu
Turn phone off
Hold menu button and plug phone into computer, (blue led will light up, let go of menu button, phone now in fastboot mode)
Open Platform-Tools folder, right click on adb and open as root, then in Platform-Tools (as root) right click adb and open in terminal
./adb start server
./fastboot -i 0x0fce getvar version
You should get a response back, i got 0.3 this means phone is connected correctly, (dont worry if you dont get a responce from ./adb devices)
Next to unlock the bootloader
./fastboot -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEYFROMSONYGOESHERE
If done correctly unlock request will be sent to phone, phone will erase various blocks of memory and response will be OKAY like this

Boot to download mode (result: failed to boot to download mode press volumt up or down...)

POWER DOWN
Phone not detected to use adb commands.
Please, I need this phone and I donn't have a warranty.

There is no hardware tweak to bypass this situation...I don't know anything please.

I'm sorry to report that this is almost assuredly a hardware failure (dead chip on your motherboard).
You could contact one of the repair services listed in the readme thread or HTC itself, but if a repair is possible - and it may not be - you'll have to pay for someone to help with this level of problem.
I have exactly the same:
Software status MODIFIED
LOCKED
S-ON
Boot to bootloader (When I chose this option phone restart and come back to the same screen so nothing)
Boot to download mode (result: failed to boot to download mode press volumt up or down...)
Boot to recovery mode (result: failed to boot to recovery mode press volumt up or down...)
the only thing that works is:
D:\Incomming>fastboot devices
FA54LYJ00638 fastboot
I'm was running Stock HTC__001. Any idea what could be done ?
Thanks for any help

Thank you very much
Just to clarify, status modified on a non rooted, bootloader locked, s-on, never touched phone most likely means a dead nand which is unrecoverable.
Beamed in by telepathy.
my phone is S-ON unlocked .
Today my phone turn off and after stay on boot loop . When i try go to recovery mode or download mode just restart to fastboot.
I connect to computer but only what i can get after command: fastboot getvar all

If you're s-on, never modded, bootloader locked and your phone won't boot, won't do anything except boot loop.. Borked nand.

If you can type "fastboot devices" on bootloader mode and output of command is just like above that, extract hosd.img from your last original firmware.zip and flash it via bootloader mode:
Code:
fastboot flash hosd hosd_signed.img
you might be able to boot DL mode again.
Don't forget to copy "hosd_signed.img" file into fastboot folder of your PC.

Consider Swappa as well - good prices and often it's XDA users (who care more about caring for their phones) upgrading/changing phones & selling their old ones.

If the phone is assuredly duff then I'd try this too, even if I'm yet to know of an instance where it actually worked.. Either that or smack it one time with something really heavy. It won't fix it but you'll feel better!.

Yes, none of them went though. All command report you need to be s-off

The only one which worked was hosd_signed.img, but that didn't change anything in the state of the phone.
is there another way to s-off without going though HTCDev ?
as this ain't working:
D:\Incomming\ROM>fastboot oem get_identifier_token

Boot to bootloader (When I chose this option phone restart and come back to the same screen does nothing)
Boot to download mode (result: failed to boot to download mode press volume up or down...)
Boot to recovery mode (result: failed to boot to recovery mode press volume up or down...)
Looks like bootloader/recovery/download mode have been wiped out from the OTA update.

If fastboot isn't working in download mode you've probably bricked it. Find the stock firmware it was using, in zip format and flash it via the external sd method.
Thanks for your quick response. But unfortunately i didn't notice its stock FM before Is there any way to fetch that from phone ?
How to know if the phone is charge enough to flash the rom ? or is there a way to do charge as now when i connect it to charger or pc it pop up into boot screen mode where i think it doesn't charge by itself untill there are some specific command via fastboot which i am not aware of it !
Any guidance will be appreciated, thanks for your time and help
There is a way to charge the phone, it will take hours but give it a try:
https://xinyustudio.wordpress.com/2...custom-rom-flashing-battery-too-low-to-flash/
BTW command
Code:
fastboot getvar battery-voltage
will tell you the battery voltage, you should check how many milivolts does your battery have when fully charged.

I actually have the same problem with the battery, I start to think that the phone is dead for good...
Just go with the latest firmware for the carrier and region it came from. If it fails report back.

fastboot flash system: partition not found

Hi All,
used my OP7T for a week before deciding to unlock. That went fine, but when I tried to flash a GSI (no custom ROMs available yet), it says partition not found?? Tried system and system_a.

Hey,
I have the same issue, did you ever find a solution?
You must unlock first
You don't say
In the meantime I found the actual solution, here it is for the record : reboot from fastboot to fastbootd using "fastboot reboot fastboot"
And then the commands will work

Can you share that recovery image?
I couldn't find it in the Rom files.
For my 600th post on XDA, I offer this info in hopes it will help.
This one is T-mobile. Don't know if it will help ort harm but it works for me.
I don't have both hands right now; yoiu'll have to search for yourself on how to enter "EDL" mode and possibly an MSM (or is it MDM?) version of stock flashable file for your model and carrier, else maybe try the T-Mobile one at your own risk: Unbrick Tool for T-Mobile
GOOD LUCK
Hi guys,

Did you find a solution ?
Download latest fastboot drivers.
From OS:
adb reboot fastboot
Or from bootloader
fastboot reboot fastboot
With devices launched on Android 10 there is a new interface called fastbootd, this is where you flash the system.

clearly. there is a difference between "old" fastboot (bootloader) and fastbootd (userspace fastboot to support dynamic partitions). You need to be in fastbootd to do most stuff nowadays.

My problem is bit different, can anybody help through this --- System partitioned doesn't exist !!!! while Gsi flashing on Realme 7 RMX2151
So when you see people posting in their tutorial;
fastboot reboot fastboot
NOW we type in;
fastboot reboot fastbootd?
No, same command, but you need stock recovery for this to work (twrp prevents fastbootd entry)
I tried for days to get to work but for TMobile follow guide on here and if it doesn't work even after you install drivers and all then use a different PC bc I have 7t and 8t OnePlus and my 8t unlocked works on my gf PC and her 7t TMobile works on mine figured that out the hard way but it's truthfully a solution when everything won't work
