Hello Genius People!
first of all i would like to thank all members and developers at XDA! MAN, you are doing an AMAZING job...i have played a lot with my HTC Desire HD just because of you guess..keep up the good work..
Now the problem is i have a HTC desire. its froyo (2.2). the problem is i cannot flash clockworkmode recovery (so that i can flash custom ROM).
First, ROM Manager says that the CWM recovery has been downloaded nd yes it asked for the SU permission which i grant. but when i boot it in recovery mode it displays the red exclamation mark. i press volume up and power nd it takes me to "android recovery mode (3e)". obviously 3e does not allow me to flash unsigned CWM zip or any other unsigned zip .
according to the HBOOT screen my set is S-OFF...i try to temproot it with VISIONary+ which works and the permroot also works.
Other method i found was revoked3. it says an error after some time "cant flash recovery...your phone may have a very new ROM"...
a person on the internet said to put a modded "recovery" file in /system/bin...i did that but still it wont let me flash the CWM....plzzzzzzzz guys help me...em in real trouble
i tried a lot of stuff from your website and the internet but nothings works for me :'(
i also tried the fastboot flash recovery recovery.img command but it said that cannot flash...something like "write error"
plz plz plz ppl help me...i will love u for the rest of my life (MAN LOVE )
nd plz dnt mind my english
I didn't read all of it but since it says your s-off boot to fastboot then use this command
fastboot flash recovery filename.img
You can also do it through terminal as well if that fails. Just google it.

Try using other version of Unrevoked to flash recovery.
I was receiving the same error with v3.32
With v3.22 it flashed successfully.
You can also flash recovery image with adb under windows:

No warranty for any damage!
Meaple, i have already tried what you are suggesting. but thanks anyways.
dmin, for sure i will give it a try and get back to you.
MatDrOiD, i have already tried this but this doesn't work for me. But thanks anyways.

Did you flash the correct kernel? You can't expect it to boot after using ROM Manager without changing to the correct kernel.

Step by Step Flashing a Custom Rom, from Stock /w auto rooting
For Arc (lt15i) // Unlocked BL
You can use this guide, on any custom rom.
I'm using Ultimate HD 3.0.2 when build this guide.
For who kinda new of using flashtool or installing / flashing and rooting a rom.
Preparation
. Copy your custom rom.zip to your sd card ( ex: UHD 3.0.2.zip )
. Copy your custom kernel wifi modules.zip to your sd card ( ex: modules.zip ) *you can get the modules, from the custom kernel thread you use
. I'm using Flashtool 0.9.9.0 *it's ok to use a newer version, haven't try it for older version though
. Download recommended base rom (ICS) => LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2716).zip : dropbox // dev-host
*It's stock firmware of 4.1.B.0.587 for Arc S, i used it to increase system partition memory from 380mb to 420mb.
A. Back to official rom (unrooted).
========================
. Open flashtool, then click flash button (lighting icon). Choose Flashmode then ok.
. Select LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2716) // wipe data , cache, apps log is checked // All exclude, unchecked // No final verification checked then click ok
. After a notification to plugin ur device pop up, connect ur phone (with power is off) while pressing the back key
(it's the left one, not the right one.. the picture on the flashtool is using different device).
. If ur doing right, the led phone will turn green and it will automatically flashing the phone
. After finish 100%, unplugged ur phone.
. Don't turn on the phone yet... let straight to step B
B. Install custom kernel
========================
. With phone still power off, connect ur phone to pc, but with holding the menu key now (the right one).
. If ur doing right, the led phone will turn blue and in the flashtool screen you will see that ur phone is in fastboot mode ( this is the mode u will often use if u wanna change different custom kernel).
. Click flash button (lighting icon). Choose fastboot then ok. A menu will pop up, choose 'Select kernel to Flash'
. Open ur desire custom kernel (file with this extension -> *.elf / *.img / *.sin ).
. It will automatically install after u choose to open it.
. Close it after finish
note :
. Choose kernel that have recovery mode on it. ex: CWM (Clockwork Mod) or TWRP. (Mostly user is familiar with CWM)
. In my case, i'm using Vengeance [ARC/S/PRO][1.32] kernel now. I choose Anzu, because my device is Arc. Also don't forget to download modules.zip, it's for wifi.
. There are many good kernel available for arc/s user like Lupus, Rush, Adv. Stock Kernel, etc, choose what suit for you
C. Install custom rom
========================
. Turn on ur phone now then keep pressing volume down to enter CWM.
. Standard operation before installing new rom :
- wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- mount and storage -> format /system
- advanced -> wipe dalvik cache
- advanced -> wipe battery stats
. Now install zip from sdcard -> choose the UHD zip file, and follow the instruction in aroma. After finish don't reboot yet.
. Unchecked the reboot in aroma, after finish, u will be back in cwm.
. Now install the wifi modules first ( usually the custom kernel have their own wifi modules).
. reboot system.
. Finish
. Do the steps above, and u will not having bootloop.
. No need to thinking about rooting, Ur device is already root now because mostly cusrom and cus-kernel now is pre-rooted.
. Personally I usually never goes to step 1. Just because stuck on sony logo, i'm doing that just once
This is just for beginner who want to clean wipe, and face a hardtime because stuck / bootloop.
For me, just having stuck on sony logo, or other stuff, I'm just doing from step 3. Back again to cwm, and installed over...

Re-flash original Arc S .587 TFT through Flashtool. It should work !
For an ICS-based kernel, you can try Lupus v16 (with CWM included).

Boot your phone keeping the menu button. You'll enter fastboot mod, then connect it to your PC with Flashtool opened and flash the .img file.
Hope I helped you !

Did you install a custom kernel? Or if you habe recovery installed? If so you can just boot back to recovery and start over.
Actually the phone can't load to recovery

Often when i instal a new rom the recovery is removed
I have to reinstall new recovery from Xparts
Flash your stock firmware via flashtool.... Then start over
Xparts is temp solution to Cwm
If you don't wanna lose recovery unlock your bootloader and flash a custom kernel
Don't worry it can be easily fixable ..
If your BL is locked then do this ! :
Turn off phone (pull the battery out then take back)
Install PC comanion softwer to your computer
When it is installed then select software repair
When it say connect phone the do this :
Hold the back button while you plug the usb cabel in !
Then follow the instructions in the PC companion than you finished !
If it is not work try to do with flashtool SEARCH for a guide there are many for it (for example flashing frimwares with flashtool ) !!
Sorry for my bad english /it is late night for me.. xD
Here a video for PC companion repair : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiaFGbeGOr0

Hello,
I tried to install the cyanogenmod 11 to my phone today,it's the first custom rom that i ever install on an Android phone. I followed all the steps provided by the cyanogenmod team but the phone it's stuck at the boot image and won't pass it. The steps i made are these:
1.Downloaded the latest stable build of cyanogenmod
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=endeavoru&type=snapshot
I used the latest one M8.
2.Downloaded the GAPPS from here
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps
I downloaded the CM11 file,the fist file that is in the list.
3.Downloaded the clockwork recovery from here:
http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
4.Put the downloaded cyanogenmod and GAPPS in a folder named Cyanogen in my storage
5. Installed the custom recovery of the clockwerk recovery
6. Wipe factory data/devlik cache
7. Installed the cyanogenmod zip and the gapps zip
8. Reboot,and not let the phone enter the cyanogenmod screen,pressed the volume down and power button to take it to fastboot
9. Installed the boot.img that is in the cyanogenmod zipfile
10. Reboot
After all of this the phone still doesn't boot up,it's just stuck at the cyanogenmod logoscreen,the wheel is spinning,sometimes freezes but always spinning,what do i have to do to make my phone work?
Please help,i need to use my phone in a few hours because i have to go to work.
Thank you verry much and excuse the long post.

Ooow,ok,i undestand,i flash the boot,after that the cwmrecovery and after that i do all the cyanogenmod stuff. One more question if it's not to much. If i do all of this stuff and still don't have a luck with cyanogenmod..or i just get tired of it, i had made a backup for the stock rom. If i use the cyanogenmod for a while and i want the Stock Rom back,can i just revert to the backup i made in clockwork mod earlier?

in fastboot flash boot.img then go into recovery and flash rom
you already flashed recovery.img and you already flashed boot.img and gapps and did a full wipe so no need to do that again
yes but you need to downgrade your recovery to cwm 5.X

did you flash boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Sent from my LG-D855 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I've quickly gone through this thread and am missing 1 important piece of info :
What is your hboot number and on what rom/software number were you before all this ?
If you hboot is lower than 1.3x than you can't install this rom at all.
And there is no need to reboot the bootloader between flashing the rom.zip and the GAPPS.zip. do these 2 straight after one another inside the recovery.
help me please
