NOOB HERE PLEASE HELP HTCDev Unlocked Bootloader, Clockworkmod recovery, wiped system

Hi,
I unlocked the bootloader with the of HTCDev, it only unlocked the bootloader enough for me to change the Recovery to Clockworkmod Recovery
Through Clockworkmod Recovery i wiped the system, just everything apart from the SD Card with the ROM's on
I've tried installing loads, cyanogenmod, runnymeade, MIUI, etc but they all get stuck at the 1st white screen with the green HTC logo
some specs for you:
HTC Desire Z, bought from Vodafone but appeared to be unbranded
Bootloader Details:

I've tried every guide i can on XDA Developers
PLEASE HELP!

How are you installing the ROMs? It sounds like you are trying to do it from your SD using Clockwork. My understanding, the only way to install a ROM after using HTC Unlock, is using fastboot.
This is one of the many reasons that HTC Unlock sucks compared to root and S-Off.

Hi,
I did use fastboot to relock it after and downgrade it using a few guides
the way i'm installing Rom's is through the Clockworkmod Recovery using .zip files i've saved on the SD Card, i can still access the SD card via my PC by mounting it to transfer files
the different Rom's i've tried, including the stock PC10IMG.zip, all do the normal installion progess that i'm used to from doing the same on my Nexus One (which is how i know this method), then say they've completed successfully, but when i go to start the phone normally it just stays at the white screen with the green HTC logo
Thanks!
*EDIT* just like to point out i didn't actually get to downgrade anything on the phone, it would always fail. Also the recovery and Rom's i'm using are for the Desire Z /G2, not Nexus One Rom's i'm trying to put on there

I think you need to have the ROM on your computer and flash it using fastboot. And the bootloader needs to be unlocked (to flash a custom ROM), as I think that is the whole point of having it unlocked.
Check out this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1453066

as redpoint73 has already said you have to flash a rom using fastboot from your pc.
Although you've actually flashed a rom using cwm recovery htc dev unlocked bootloader doesn't allow you to touch the boot.img hence the white splash screen.
you can take out the boot.img from the rom and flash it using fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
I would recommend getting back to xda's unlocked bootloader(PS: higher version bootloader doesn't mean more/better functionality.. it just means more bars added to your jail cell)

I have tried a lot of methods to install custom roms but the only one worked for me is the one in cyangenmod wiki page.
1.Downgrade.
2.created a golden card.
3.s-off.
4.root.
And I have been installing roms happily ever after

[Q] Help after unlocking with htcdev.com

Hello,
I've unlocked the bootloader of my Desire Z with htcdev.com. Everything went well, after gaining acces to fastboot I flashed CWM 5.0.2.7.
I've tried to flash CM7 from it and the Gapps, and when I rebooted the phone, it get stuck on the white screen and HTC logo.
I've done exactly the same for my HTC ChaCha and everything went well.
Do you have any idea why my phone won't boot ?
Thanks for reading
Here are some infos about the phone :

When you are not s-off, but htcdev unlocked, you need to flash a boot.img for every rom you flash and that too via pc and not recovery.
Do this :
Extract boot.img from your rom.rar
Flash your rom regularly, but don't reboot normally. Instead reboot bootloader.
Connect your phone to pc via usb.
In fastboot(cmd) , type " fastboot flash boot boot.img "
Then reboot.
Just look for the file. It should be in the same folder as your cmd or else type the whole directory address.

[Q] Stuck At HTC Logo

Hi there,
I have a problem that I cannot solve. I wanted to update my ROM to a custom one.
The steps that I did before my phone stuck at HTC logo:
1. EasyUnlockTool
Updated HBOOT
And UNLOCKED
2. EasyAceRootTool
which didn't help
but I got CWM touch
3. I have uploaded Android Revolution HD 6.6 to sdcard
4. Installed from CWM from .zip
5. Followed Android Revolution HD installer
6. After reboot I only see HTC logo
Factory reset/Wipe Data/Wipe Cache seem to have to effect on the situation.
I tried to return to stock using:

How can I make my phone work again?

These are the key points you need to do.
Unlock the bootloader, (your bootloader is relocked)!
boot into recovery,
full wipe phone,
flash New Rom,
manual flash boot.img (inside flashed Rom) via fastboot and fastboot.exe on pc using command
Fastboot flash boot boot.img

It worked!!! Thank you!
Do you know why it happened that way?

Your bootloader was relocked preventing you from changing most system things.
P.s. with unlocked bootloader and no s-off you need to manual flash the boot.img every time you change Rom.

HTC desire HD can not boot anymore after try to install android 4

Hello guys,
I wanted to install a new version of Android (4.X), and I tried different steps
- first I wanted to downgrade my firmware version, but I saw that a goldcard was needed and the link to generate them was dead, so I skipped this part...
- So I unlocked the BOOTLOADER, then I installed ClockworkMod.
- Then I performed a fullwipe and tried to install different via the Recovery mode ROMS I downloaded. The issue was that all the installation were pretty fast (less than 1 minutes ) and none of them allowed me to start my HTC.
I am now in trouble since I can not start anymore my phone, cause I can not installed any ROM... Plus, I think I never put my phone as root, but I am not sure I can do this anymore (since the only thing I can do is start via the BOOTLOADER).
Could someone help me with my issue?
Thanks in advance....

Er, nothing you've said implies that flashing the boot.img isn't your solution. You don't need root to flash the boot.img, just unlock, and you have that. You only need to downgrade to get S-Off, which you don't need.
What you could do is flash the boot.img from fastboot like I said, and see if it boots. If you're flashing a custom ROM (which you must be if you're flashing 4.x, since that's not officially supported), it will come with root.

Thx bananagranola: I tried to perform this action with 3 ROMs and they all failed...
Here are the steps I performed each time :
Download the ROM
Extract the boot.img from the ROM, and then do a connect my mobile with fastboot to my pc
Execute : fastboot flash boot boot.img
Go in Recovery, performed a full wipe and then installed the ROM (install from ZIP).
Problem is, everytime the installation failed at the beginning or the middle (with the VIPER one, around 60 %)...
Do you have any idea what I could have done wrong?

You really should do full wipe first, then flash your ROM of choice, then flash the boot.IMG from the rom last via fastboot last, this is probably why it keeps failing.

Yes, wipe, then flash ROM from recovery first, then flash boot.img from fastboot. With your current method, you're wiping the boot.img before flashing the ROM.

Thx both, but unfortunately it does not work.
I performed a full wipe, then flash the ROM ( install the zip, which is often really fast, less than 45 seconds, except for the VIPER which failed in the middle). Then I do :
Extract the boot.img from the ROM, and then do a connect my mobile with fastboot to my pc
Execute : fastboot flash boot boot.img
Now I passed the HTC logo, but then blocked on a black screen....
Any Idea?

Did you buy your phone after 2012? Also since your phone is s-off you do not require a unlocked hboot to flash the recovery. If you relock it the pg76img will work. Its the unlock that disables this method.
