well, take a copy of the backup on your computer and extract it, inside of it there should be the boot.img.
now go into fastboot and flash that boot.img file, then go into recovery and after a full wipe restore the backup and everything should boot up correctly

i Got an IDEA!!!
Guys! i got an idea!
i have an OTA to 2.17.720.2 and i have 1.29 RUU i believe if i can get RUU 2.17 for any country and combine the 3 files and create an RUU 2.17 for India! also an installer from installshield is very easy to be created!
i'll do my best to download a 2.17 RUU for any country to test but my internet is so slow it may take 2 weeks to download 600 MB!
Stock 2.17.720.2 India cwm nandroid backup
Thank's to kryptoner for nandroid backup and to minachvim for stock recovery and boot
I made some changes in that nandroid backup, removed some unwanted apk and complete unroot. So this will be stock unrooted rom.
Here little guide:
1. Download and unzip. >> clockworkmod.zip
2. Put unziped clockworkmod folder in to the sd-card (Do not change name it must be like that clockworkmod\backup\2012-10-10.17.00.28)
3. Go to recovery and full wipe (you can use ARHD super wipe script)
4. Now go to backup/restore and choose restore
5. After that go to fastboot mod by holding power+vol down button for 10 secs..
6. Flash boot, here is script that's include stock 2.17.720.2 boot.img >> Flash_boot_2.17.720.2.zip
After that do not restart.
In your PC, Click Start > Run > type CMD in box then press OK. cd to your fastboot files folder >> fastboot.zip
7. It's important after flashing boot.img, Type:
Code:
fastboot erase cache
8. Flash recovery, here is script that's include stock 2.17.720.2 recovery.img >> Flash_recovery_2.17.720.2.zip
Now again in PC
9. Type:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
and reboot
That's all, your mobile now is stock and you can get officially OTA update.
Good Luck everyone

help?

im coming from an Optimus V, which i rooted and romed no problem.
now with this HTC One V... it's difficult. i successfully root, but when i tried installing a rom and failed... now my phone won't start. i tried recovering, it's stuck at the boot up screen.
when ever i boot now, it shows the loading screen to recovery, then tries to boot like normal and just hangs.
i've never installed a custom kernel before, maybe i messed up there?
What ROM did you flashed?
Due to the One V still being S-ON, you will need to manually flash the kernel using fastboot the same way you flash a custom recovery

CM 10. primoc.
harmonia 2 was so much easier to install on the optimus v. my problem is idk where to start to fix my issue. i can move data using my sd card, but i can only load up to recovery or fastboot.
-edit-
if you or anyone could help me flash a stable rom to fix this issue, id be grateful. doesnt have to be CM10.
now it just keeps rebooting. any ideas on fixes?
-update-
problem fixed.

Boot loops and stuck at boot screen is no problem at all, you just need to flash the right kernel via fast boot
Sent from my HTC One V using xda app-developers app
---------- Post added at 07:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:49 PM ----------
To explain better than if you were using the cm10 made by jmztaylor, it says that the kernel (boot image) is inside the zip of the rom. Until the phone is s-on you will always have to open the zip file of the rom and extract the boot.img (or "kernel name".img) in the fastboot folder on your computer. Then if you are using windows 7 (as I do) just run the cmd, go to the fastboot folder (with the cd command, like mine is cd desktop then I do cd fastboot because my fastboot folder is on the desktop) then connect the phone tu the pc and enter the bootloader, it should say fastboot USB, all you have to do is type in the cmd fastboot flash boot boot.img (or" kernel name".img), when it finishes, just reboot the phone and it will work perfectly! You have to do this with every rom until the phone is s-on!

I don't think it is hard bricked, you did nothing wrong, i think. Anyway, you could try to download the ROM (i think that you don't have it in the phone now) from pc and put it in phone in recovery, then try to flash again the rom. You can also try to download another sense 5 rom, like maximus (it works for me); in both cases, wipe all (except the sd) and re-flash the kernel. If it doesn't work, then go back to sense 4+ until someone finds out the problem. If i didn't understand well the problem, then sorry, but i hope i helped you.

Go to recovery, and from there mount usb storage. Put on back the desired ROM and start all over again.
To me this looks the easiest and the shortest way. Otherwise you keep on trying stuff, and perhaps non of them help. Just my 2 cents.

it is not needed to go back to stock rom, simply download to the pc a ROM with sense 4+ like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1836919 or something similar, then do as Braindamage1989 said: go in recovery, connect usb to the phone, mount usb and copy the rom from the pc to the phone.

yup so these are the steps I followed.
1) flashed the boot.img that I had in the nandroid backup
2) restored the backup
3) booted up completely
4) since touch screen doesn't work
5) restarted the phone went into recovery and installed the OTA
6) booted again and it got stuck
7) erased cache from fastboot -> no-go

thanx for letting me knw that it is not kernel related(sigh of relief)
but still,can you suggest some roms so that i'll try flashing their boot.img's!
You can try any rom if your hboot is supported. Receiving signal is something different from the signal strength.
The modules in the rom + the delivered boot.img are related to each other to make signal and bluetooth ...etc etc work.
So flash the boot.img from the rom, make a full wipe in recovery, install the rom. That way it should be all good on any rom.

It seems the last few updates to my OS haven't booted, but this was a "stable" version, so I thought it might, but it didn't. Do I need to update my recovery? If so, how do I do that?
Please bear my mind I am stupid and will require step by step instructions. Thanks in advance.

Did you flash the boot.img file? And did it hang at boot?

Here's a step by step instruction:
1st step: Unlock the boot loader at HTCDev.com
(Phone must be in fastboot mode; pres volume button down and power button)
2nd step: in the fastboot folder that you placed the unlock key (which HTC supplied) put the recovery that you want. Inside the fastboot folder, left shift and right click and select open command window from there and type in: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
3rd step: open the rom that you've downloaded and want to flash and you'll be able to see a item call boot.img. Extract that out and dump into the fastboot folder where your recovery is. And type in the command window: fastboot flash boot boot.img
4th step: copy the rom over to the phone through your recovery (and gapps also if you're using a AOSP rom) and do a full wipe from there and install the rom that you downloaded (after that install the gapps if needed)
I've already rooted my phone, I'm running a previous version of CM. However, I do not have access to the original computer I used. Will this be a problem?

Also, I would probably be using a Mac computer.

Afraid of my data
Hi there, I think I've chosen a right topic. So, now I have CM 10.2 RC1 installed on my HOX. How can I update it to new stable version without losing data and installed apps? The update appears in update settings, but I had a bad experience with it when I was trying to update from 10.1.3 to 10.2 RC1. What you think?

The 10.2 is the stable version.
It installs for me, but my phone gets stuck on the spinny CM logo bit.

I had the same issue when i had installed the 10.2 RC1 from the settings. Then I install the ROM from recovery mode and had to re-install all the apps. If the same think appears with 10.2 update, I'm gonna wait.

I installed from the recovery, and the same thing happened again.
How do I update my recovery? That might help.

You can try making a nandroid backup first than after which you download the update and flash in recovery but remember to wipe cache and dalvik cache and if anything goes wrong, you can still restore back your backup. Or another alternative is that you could backup your apps (not data) than do a full wiper and install the lastest version of cm10

type into fastboot: fastboot erase cahe
extract the boot.img in the rom than type: fastboot flash boot boot.img
than type in again: fastboot clear cache
Dnt you need to flash the boot.img after every update that you do for CM? :-\

I'm not sure but there's no harm flash the boot.img for it each time rather than ending your phone up into bootloop and do everything again right?

As with the maximus hd roms it's always recommended to flash the boot.img after every Rom update so I guess it won't be any different here.. avoids a lot of issues in the longer run..

Got it! Just made backup of all apps by Titanium Backup then flashed the ROM and restored the backup. Easy and nicely! I don't know whether I had to flash the boot.img again or not, but it works!
