I needed fastboot files so i did a little research to find to different files.
1 had only 3 files in the folder(ckpv5's tutorial)
& the other had 6 files(cybervibin's tutorial) so i dont want to mess up flashing kernel.
Since these are important files.
Someone plz help me chose between which fastboot i must copy to c drive
The one with most files just run the fast boot.exe

u mean i dnt have to cmd/ fastboot flash boot boot.img.
wer do i copy the boot.img i want to flash?
I know 1 way.
Open cmd type fastboot flash boot boot.img(u have too copy its exact location)
then fastboot reboot.
Is that right?
I read somewhere u have to copy boot.img to fastboot folder.
That made me confused like hell.
I found the soltn thread closed.
Why do you need to be confused
The extra files are HTC Driver and TWRP image... those are not part of fastboot
When you want to run fastboot flash boot boot.img - the boot.img file must be in fastboot folder
When you run fastboot flash boot [folder path]/boot.img - the boot.img can be at any folder and put the right path ... but why do you want to do the hard way

So flashing kernel is the big deal for me.
As i am doing it for the 1st time.
I wanted to flash some AOSP Roms.
So i was just curious wether i should do it or not.

Flashing any ROM either Sense ROM or AOSP ROM, you need to flash the boot.img as mentioned on OP. The ROM thread will tell you what kind of kernel/boot.img that you need. Some is on CM9 kernel, some on CM10 kernel and some is using the stock kernel or TK kernel. For CM10 they have two different kernel if I'm not mistaken, so read carefully.
Most basic thing is to flash a boot.img that is meant for that ROM.

Thanks ck for your support.
Before flashing Rom i tried back up from recovery but it had some error.
That's too general.
You need to tell what kind of error, what is written for the error then only someone can tell you whether that's an error or something normal

My procedure in chronological order:
Flashed recovery TWRP 2.3
Wiped everything possible in the wipe-tab
Installed CM9/10 from zip on SD-card (zip contains META-INF, system and boot.img)
Flashed boot.img from the zip file CM9/10
Issued the command fastboot erase cache
Unplugged cable and reboot
What happens is that I am stuck at the HTC booting screen. I have been here for about 30-40 minutes. If I try any adb shell command I receive this error: - exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) -. Clearly, something is not right here. I will not speculate because I lack the knowledge to do so. Any help is appreciated because I have been phone-less for a day now and it is getting irritating. Thanks!

It should boot without them, but better to give it a try.

Thanks, but still a no go.

Still hangs at boot. Very annoying. I am currently using a modified stock ROM and I dislike it very much.
Hey,
I have exactly the same issue. I've unlocked my bootloader using the method as specified by htcdev.com. Then I flashed the newest CWM recovery. But if I flash any ROM, I'm stuck at its boot animation. However if I then unzip the boot.img from the ROM, and flash that (fastboot flash boot boot.img), my phone won't boot past HTC screen. Even erasing the cache didn't help (fastboot erase cache).
I've restored the stock ROM using the RUU, however during the process something went wrong and it formatted my sd-card. So I'm stuck with the stock ROM, without any applications or data.
Can anybody help me flash CM10?
My Hboot version is 1.36.0000
And I'm trying to flash the cm-10-20121210-NIGHTLY-endeavoru.zip ROM.

You cannot use the boot.img that comes with the zip out of the box if you have Hboot 1.36. What you have to do is repack it, taking the boot.img from the zip file and then a modified boot.img here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...postcount=9173 (thanks TToivanen), then as I understood it, repack it for instance here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1815607, download the repacked boot.img and flash that.
With that said, I could not get it running but it might be something wrong with my phone. Please try this out and tell me if it works or not so I may start to conclude where the error lies.

Hey again..
I was hoping my first custom ROM flashing would be successful considering I've read plenty of threads on how to do it and were pretty careful, but that's not the case.
I tried to give Slim Bean a shot, downloaded Slim-endeavoru-3.1.0-OFFICIAL from their page, and Slim_Gapps along with it.
HBOOT is 1.39, CWM is 5.8.4.0
So I did just as instructed, booted into recovery, wiped data, formatted /system, and then flashed Slim Bean, and Gapps after that was done. When I reboot I just get stuck in the Slim Bean loading screen for a while without anything happening. Tried rebooting and re-flashing a couple of times doing the same procedure - but nothing. Can anyone help me out?

boot.img is in the Slim-endeavoru-3.1.0-OFFICIAL.zip file already so I thought if I flashed the whole zip it would flash the boot.img along with it, no?
No, you should flash boot.img via your computer.

Someone tell me if I am wrong but the reason you have to flash the boot.img separately is because we have not achieved S-OFF with the HTC One X which gives us unbridled access to everything.
Take the boot.img out of the rom '.zip' and put your phone into fastboot mode. Using the command line and fastboot type 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' obviously for this exact command to work the boot.img needs to be in the same folder as fastboot.exe. Otherwise just type the exact location of it.
Your phone should boot if everything else has been done perfectly.
I'll try that right away.

correct...!
Okay so I went into fastboot mode, shift-right click on where the fastboot folder on my PC is, opened command prompt (previously pasted the boot.img from Slim Bean to that folder), typed in fastboot flash boot boot.img, fastboot erase cache and fastboot reboot. After reboot I went straight into recovery, flashed the ROM and Gapps, rebooted and now it's stuck HTC's boot screen. :/
With what unzip program you extracted the boot.img?
Try with 7zip...
One more thing- if I remember correct you need to use special boot.img for using 4.1 or 4.2 roms, because they do not work with latest hboots 1.31-39.
Search for such boot.img.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
WinRAR. Okay, gonna try with 7zip.. Also, by extracting the boot.img from the zip you guys mean just to extract it or taking it out of the zip completely? Because I removed it from the zip entirely and flashed it via fastboot only.

You'll be fine with WinRAR. Check back on the forum thread page of the rom you downloaded and look for a md5 sum/number. Google MD5 checker or something to that effect and check whether the MD5 checks up. Could be that a few 1's and 0's are out of place.
My other concern is the rom you have flashed. SlimBean – not tried it, I'm guessing it's a light weight Jelly Bean yeah? Are you sure that you have the correct hboot version for Jelly Bean yet? You can't force update all HOX's to Jelly Bean yet.
EDIT: Missed a bit of your post – I'm not aware of the implications but I and many others have always just copied the boot.img not cut. Obviously if you cut it and it gets zipped back up the MD5 will definitely not match. Save yourself a the head ache and download the rom again to be 100%. Delete the old.

We need to know which stock system version you had to get the right kernel ideally or if you have a custom recovery you could go and flash a new rom which will have a kernel to go with it (depending on your hboot version).

You can put files into the storage by booting into cwm recovery, selecting mount USB storage, and connecting it to your computer.
For how to flash ROMs, look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069904 second post.
Battery too low ?
Oke put this file inside the fastboot folder on the pc (you have the fastboot.exe file, should be in one of the folders in the toolkit dir)
http://db.tt/aLqeTpPO
Execute this file with the phone in the bootloader ! It will continuing to loop your bootloader and charge it little by little. Let it run for about 30 min and then flash again the recovery. The recovery name must be just "recovery.img" so rename it if needed

Execute this file with the phone in the bootloader ! It will continuing to loop your bootloader and charge it little by little. Let it run for about 30 min and then flash again the recovery. The recovery name must be just "recovery.img" so rename it if needed

So after I've done that, How would I flash the rom, I can't mount sd storage through cwm because it says " uns error, no such file or directory" I formatted the usb earlier, could it have something to do with that? Is there any other way?
Thats because i told you to flash the new recovery first from the link i gave you. That one is able to mount the sdcard so you can copy the rom + gapps to it
I hope I'm not asking a question that has been answered else where that I could find. So basically I have an AT&T galaxy note 2 that I bought with Cleanrom on and has TWRP. I have been reading up and watching videos and want to flash a new rom. However I find roms I don't see the google apps with the rom file. From what i see you need to flash the rom and then flash the google apps onto it to have the play store.
For instance, I downloaded the stable release cm-10.2-20130924-NIGHTLY-t0lteatt.zip that came out today. I put it on my phone, and i see in twrp where i can install it. However on the cynogenmod website they don't have a separate file to download for google apps. Is this like a universal file or do all roms not need these files?
ALSO, I just want to make sure it is okay to just flash the rom in TWRP and I do not need to go about this another way.
You will need to flash gapps after you flash the ROM and you boot up first time. You'll need the most current gapps package for 4.3 ROMs. Check goo they have all the gapps listed.

Okay, glad I know that now. Thank you
Do you know if it is fine to flash cynogenmod right in TWRP? I read somewhere the fastboot should be used, but it wasn't the exact same situation i'm in so i wanted to clarify before i screw anything up

Fastboot is for HTC phone flashing. Samsung flashes in a custom recovery.
Okay, I guess i'm just confused when I see things like this.
To install this ROM you will need to have an unlocked bootloader and a custom Recovery such as TWRP or ClockWorkMod installed
Copy the downloaded ProBAM to your phone.
boot in bootloader
select fastboot mod
flash boot.img via fastboot that is located in the .zip fastboot flash boot boot.img
Boot into your custom recovery
Back up your ROM
Enter custom recovery
Make full wipe "included "system"
Install the ROM
install GAPPS package
Reboot - the first boot can take up to 2 minutes
From what i can see, I can start up in recovery and just flash the .zip.. Don't see how I can get into fastboot mod in TWRP
Fastboot flash instruction should be ignored when using a Samsung device ...
Simply install the appropriate TWRP or CWM recovery to the device ....
From that point you can choose the compatible rom of your choice ...and flash the .zip from within the new recovery ...
No fancy HTC stuff here ...
Also ...it is highly recommended to thoroughly read the install instructions of each rom prior to flashing...as they often contain special instruction that can get missed ...
Welcome ....you have a great device that is very easy to flash when done properly ....g

Those were the instructions for my device, thats why I am so nervous. If it is really as easy as just deleting cache and factory data and stuff and installing it buy the .zip i might do it a whole lot more often!!

Those are the steps, buddy. Honestly, the hardest part of the process is holding all three buttons to boot into recovery.

oiii, i'm missing something. How do i do this part? Or were those just copied instructions and i can disregard? Sorry for making this more difficult than it is.
boot in bootloader
select fastboot mod
flash boot.img via fastboot that is located in the .zip fastboot flash boot boot.img
I would like to know where you are looking at the instructions --they are not for a samsung galaxy model...
I had it on my desktop I'm on my phone now. It was a thread for the probam ROM for note 2 att version. Cant seem to find it on my phone at the moment.
Fastboot is an HTC thing. Not Samsung. Double check your sources.
Sent from my CLEAN Note II
Okay looks like someone commented on the threading saying the instructions were wrong and they were changed. Now I feel much more confident. Will do tonight when I get home.

My last HTC device was a Desire HD, but I imagine that the newer devices have the same approach. To flash a kernel, you need to use both recovery and a PC, first to flash the boot.img with fastboot from the PC, and then flash the .zip from the recovery.

I use an android phone with twrp custom recovery and when i flashed a rom before i restarted my phone i wipe cache and dalvik cache then i flash the kernel zip separately from the rom and then restart phone. Make a nandroid backup before doing any thing like this and you can backup your stock kernel if you haven't changed it yet. Flashify for root users, app can backup your current kernel and current recovery. I only flash roms and kernels through recovery. I have used that app to flash my recovery but some people have bricked their devices using it. Soft bricked i think

What is it you were doing ? Were you trying to flash them both at same time from a computer instead of on the recovery ?

and then i flash the full zip with my recovery. i use philz touch 6 recovery for the hox.
i had made a flashable zip with all my apps. made with ZIPme https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=zip.me&hl=de

with Kernel lighter you install one time the KLZeusBeta8.img with the pc then when you go in recovery just go to flash zip from file choice Flash AromaFM-KL.zip then choice your rom and will be installed on the end choice the boot.img from rom.zip the apps will ask you to choice the boot.img and give you automatik the boot.img in the rom.zip and you are ready to go you can change your rom every thime when you want and flash kernels any time without PC
Thank you. I give it a try you description is easyer than the one from the thread

just keep in mind that there is a small bug in KL-Aroma which ill fix in a week, after my exams.
but you can bypass it by running this commands with adb
Code:
adb remount
adb shell mkdir /system/boot/
adb shell mkdir /data/boot/
adb shell mkdir /sdcard/boot/
