Flashed new HBOOT, now says S-ON?!

I was on one of the older Hboots, decided to update that and the radio. I flashed the new Hboot, now it says S-On and it DOES NOT reboot. Everytime I try rebooting, it shows the splash screen and goes right back to the Hboot menu! Can anyone help me?

Try running unrevoked forever from the recovery and it may let you unlock it. If not you may be stuck.

Ok, I got S-off back by unrevoked-forever, but it still doesn't reboot. Anyone have any suggestions?

I've attached adb in case you don't already have it, extract it and cd to where you extracted it to. Then just connect your Evo and run..
Code:
adb reboot

Go into your recovery and wipe everything then reflash your Rom. If you can't access your recovery flash a recovery image of your choice via bootloader by renaming it PC36IMG and placing it on the root of your SD card then wipe everything and reflash your Rom.

Yeah, I think I had .93 Hboot, maybe should have just stayed with that, I dunno.

if it's bouncing you back to hboot it could be for the same reason it bounces you back to recovery after using a format_all.zip file.
Go find Sprint Lover's 2.3. It comes in a PC36IMG file you can put in the root of your sd card and flash in the bootloader (aka parsing the update).
It's rooted so you'll keep s-off and your phone should boot. Also, once you're booted, download rom manager and put your recovery back
Hope this helps!

If you have CWM's latest recovery then you should be able to flash a different custom rom, boot the phone into recovery and mount USB storage, copy over the new rom, unmount storage and format the system, data, cache and davik cache and then install rom..... you will need to flash the boot.img for the rom from fastboot before it will boot.
If you instructions on going back to stock then look at my sig or look in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1735930&page=3
Edit: Upon doing a quick search it seams that RUU version isn't available yet, only way for you currently is to flash a custom rom.

Thnx for the reply mate, however i am not on a custom firmware..infact i just rooted my phone with one click rooting method and post which the phone was rebooting everytime i was playing any music file.
So i went to the recovery and tried clearing cache/sdcard/system/etc but that didn't help, then i tried formatting the sdcard/system and post that my phone is stuck on the boot screen.
Since then..i've been trying many things, infact i also tried to flash the stock recovery...which happened successfully but sadly the phone did not boot. Man what to do?

You formatted the system partition, which is where all the files for your phone were located (so all the system files have been deleted..... you should have really taken a backup of the phone before doing anything to it); you need to flash the latest CWM recovery from HERE
and then download and install a custom ROM onto your phone as the RUU that you need is not yet available.

for first link: Thats only the "Over The Air" update file, you still need a working stock rom'd phone to flash it.
for second link: That should be fine to install onto your phone once you have the CWM Recovery flashed onto your phone, remember to also flash over the boot.img file before you try and boot the phone.... otherwise it just wont boot

[Q] a whole mess of problems..

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.

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

You said in OP that you have a backup right?restore it first.and flash the boot.img found inside the backup.
Let's see what happens.it should boot normal.

That was an issue, i tried to restore the backup but it hangs at the HTC screen shortly after the Virgin Mobile and doesn't move..ever i let it sit for a long while and nothing happend

You have to flash the kernel first!only then will it boot.
Go into fastboot,flash the kernel found inside the backup and then restore it.

[Q] HTC one x stuck in bootloader, no OS found one sd

Hey guys, i've been searching, reading and googling almost anything that could help me with my situation right now.
I recently rooted my phone n soon after i decided to run a custom ROM on it. I followed the instructions,
till i reach a part in recovery mode (TWRP) i selected factory wipe which wiped everything from my sd card,
when i realized this i unplugged my phone and it kept rebooting over and over i tried to use adb sideload option
but i keep getting an error that its unable to mount.
i also tried to factory reset and the problem was still there.
i am all out of options and i really dont know what to do
right now, please help me.. :crying:

Tou did not flash the rom zip file and boot.img?

You can enter bootloader mode by holding down the volume down button.
Then you can re-flash a custom recovery via fastboot.
Then you can mount your USB and copy a custom ROM to storage.
And then flash the custom ROM, but don't forget to also flash the boot.img via fastboot (it's in the zip of the custom ROM)

[Q] ROM Wiped, Recovery Corrupted

I have been trying to flash TWRP 2.7.1.0 on my Wildfire S, but failed. It just goes back to CWM 5.0.2.8. I stupidly went to wipe data in recovery, and now my recovery is corrupted. When I try to mount USB storage, it gives me
Code:
E:Unable to write to ums lunfile (No such file or directory)
I tried fastboot, but since I'm running Windows 8.1, HTC drivers won't install. I have tried most solutions but they all don't work. Is there a way I can flash the recovery from my computer?

It should not detect too. Odin is for samsung phones. To reinstall the recovery you can try to flash by the PG76100.zip method. Get a recovery in a zip, place it on root of sdcard and boot to bootloader.
BTW how are you sure that your recovery is corrupted? It is really a very weird thing for the recovery to be corrupted.

It isn't really corrupted, just not working as intended. I will try the PG76100.zip tomorrow when I have time. BTW, that is flashed from bootloader right?

Yes you can just go to bootloader and it will check for the file and prompt to install it. And what do you mean by not working as intended? Are you trying to flash CM11 then it will require at least CWM6 or TWRP 2.7

Tried the PG76IMG.zip method from 2.3.5 RUU, flashed in HBoot, factory reset-ed, phone still not booting/recovery still CWM 5.0.2.8.
Edit: Recovery is working as per normal, however anything I flash, it will just reboot to recovery half way in booting process. Stock 2.3.5, Marvellous Sense 3.5, CM10.1, all of them.

You don't need to factory reset after the recovery. Was there any errors while flashing? Try a fresh start like --> Install another recovery, if it installs then all well but if it does not then find the correct RUU for your model and flash it. You'll need to redo everything you did to root your phone after this. BTW are you sure you wiped system and data? Both of them and before flash not after.

6. Tried creating own PG76IMG.zip with TWRP 2.7.0.0 inside, CID error when flashed in hboot
7. Ran RUU to get ROM.zip, transferred to SD card as PG76IMG.zip, flashed in hboot. (Wiped data before flashing)
8. Phone won't boot, recovery problem automagically ended
9. Tried flashing OWL recovery PG76IMG.zip in hboot, got CID error again.
10. Current situation.
I won't be able to get my CID since I'm running Windows 8.1, and I can't get hold of any Windows 7 PC.

Creating the PG76IMG.zip by your own would not work as the necessary info file is not inside. Take the zip I attached and replace the recovery.img inside with which recovery you want. And don't replace the android-info.txt. That's the one you're missing now.
And press thanks if it worked
