So i downloaded the img file
renamed it recovery.img
move the file to "C:\Users\rAv\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools"
rebooted the phone to fastboot
connected the usb cable
open cmd and run the following command " fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
It worked okay and then rebooted the phone.
Now how do i make sure the twrp was installed?
Thanks

I hope u had changed the file
path
Now bout in fast boot and select boatloader with the help off power button u should arrive at a menu with options like recovery
Click. On recovery
And next time put a easier push for example c:/android

Problem with fastboot
Hi. I have padfone2. I have rooted it and all was fine. i removed some stock apps and before installing recovery and backing up the phone i did factory reset. Now the phone shows asus logo then shows android logo with progress bar and few seconds later it reboots and does it again and again. I want to flash a custom rom so i started the phone in fastboot with power/volume buttons. All the screen shows is "Fastboot!!!" at the top of the screen and asus logo somewhere in the middle. I flashed suggested twrp with "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" from the cmd and it looked ok. When I rebooted the phone it went straight into the loop again. When I start it in fastboot mode there is no menu or anything else to start the recovery. What do I need to do to open it. Please help. Thanks.

This is the one V forum so I don't know what you can flash, but when your phone restarts (boot loop) you must have flashed a wrong kernel. To reboot into recovery connect the pad to the pc and type in cmd "adb reboot recovery" then just flash the right kernel, you have to find that on your own, check the thread of the rom you are trying to use

[Q] SERIOUS PROBLEM with Rom and phone

Hi!
I got a serious problem I cannot enter in my phone, it got stucked in the htc logo.
Basically I tried to install at the beginning Icecoldjelly rom ( I did the backup ) ,but it had some problems on my phone so I restore the phone and I tried to install Cyanogenmod but it didn't loaded it just started to restart over and over without concludind the installation.
So I thought to restore the stock rom again (icecream sandwich ver.) through the back up I did at the beggining ,but it just stucks in the htc logo.
So now I cannot use my phone anymore, I try to restore it and the phone remain stuck to the htc logo I tried to install cyanogenmod and it restarts over and over...
Anyone can help me?!? I'm desperate...
Sorry for my bad english.
Thank you for any help you can give me!

No, but I read the answer you gave to another thread
"open the rom .zip and extract the boot.img and then type:
Code:
fastboot flash boot path/to/boot.img "
But I still don't understand what I have to do...
which rom.zip? and where I have to type that code?

man this is the most basical command you need to know, you need to flash the boot.img everytime you change a rom! now go into you rom's thread and search for the boot.img download, connect the phone while in fastboot mode and then type that command in the cmd if you are using Windows

when will you people lear to read? this is not a SERIOUS PROBLEM, this is THE MOST STUPID DISCUSSED PROBLEM in the HTC One X forum!
it is well explained in the cm10 forum
Installation instructions:
- Extract boot.img from zip file
- Flash the boot.img manually via "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
- Go into recovery and flash the rom
- Reboot

You need to flash The correct boot.img Before flashing new rom
If you wanna go Back to stock download the boot.img For your ROM, flash it, then restore your Backup

and don't forget, after flashing the boot.img to stay in fastboot and type :-
fastboot erase cache

Oh I think I know whats wrong...I tried to use CM and this is a CDMA phone...I'll need a CDMA rom for this phone then?

yes from d CDMA android dev section.
Sent from my One V

Well...same problem, this time I followed the instructions step by step!

1. Download ROM and gapps and put them in SD card's root.
2. Download jmz primoc kernel and place it in fastboot or platform-tools folder and rename it to boot.img.
3. Boot phone into bootloader. Select fastboot. Connect it to PC. It should say fastboot usb.
4. Flash boot.img(the kernel) using command 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'.
5. Enter recovery from bootloader and first do a full wipe factory reset,erase cache,erase dalvik cache.
6. Then flash rom. Boot into ROM and then again boot into recovery and flash gapps.
Sent from my One V

Well, I actually just got done trying to use a CDMA converter...didn't work. Im in the process of using your method. But will it boot without Gapps installed?

Just tried your method, and it gets stuck on a boot loop, I am able to get into bootloader and recovery fine, but when I try to boot, it loops.

... why are you doing things to your phone when you obviously don't know anything. When in recovery after your done hold power for until it shuts off and then immediately hold down the down vol button (not the vol up!!) And for roms go to CDMA dev if your CDMA and android dev/ROM dev if your gsm

[Q] Stuck in Cyanogenmod 11 bootscreen

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

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

Thank you for replying, can you just explain how? and what is the latest valid rom that I can get to my Desire HD?
Thank you again

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5xVl2dBTnmI#

You have to extract the boot.img from the zip you are trying to flash inside the folder you have fastboot.Then you give the command fastboot flash boot boot.img to flash the new kernel.
You could also install 4EXT recovery and use smartflash as long as you are s-on.

Thanx a million for all.. I will try to do that today and will forward the results.
Thanx again

shall I connect the devise at the buginning or after flashinf the boot comand? and in what status the devise should be connected (fastboot or recovery)?
Another thing: as Im running windows, my PC is recognizing the device imidietly, so do I still hav to install any drive from htcdev ? and what drive is that ?
Sorry for that but as I said before, Im a little noob in this..
Thanx in advance..

OK, here are the results:
did the tutorial to the letter as in the link, everything went well till the end, after that I restarted the devise and simply it goes to recovery?
now everytime I restart the devise it goes to recovery automatically?

I told you to install 4ext if you like!
4ext is a recovery with the ability either you are S-ON or S-OFF user can flash for you any kernel you like with smart flash.
What you probably did was to flash this recovery as kernel for your device.If you want to install this recovery you have to install it to recovery partition using fastboot flash recovery {your recovery.img}.
If you want to make your rom working again you have to extract the boot.img file from the zip you was trying to install using recovery and you flash it manually using fastboot flash boot boot.img or you could use 4ext to flash it with smartflash but it would be better if you installed it first to the recovery partition (If you use 4ext now you probably have to make a full flash of your rom except if you find only the kernel in a zip or you have an older nandroid backup with the right kernel to restore).
** You have to enable smartflash only if you are S-ON.If you S-OFF your device you should disable this feature. **

Just extract the boot.img of the rom zip you was trying to install in the folder you have the fastboot and then install it using the command fastboot flash boot boot.img while you are in bootloader.
Don't be confused with 4ext.This is just a recovery like cwm.
