My laptop couldn't recognize the phone so I manually rebooted to fastboot, then I entered "fastboot oem relock" and tried to flash but it did NOT work. Now all I have is a bootloader menu. I also tried this but it says that the Hboot version is older. H E L P
Relock the bootloader and install custom ROM ? And are you try this command fastboot " fastboot flash zip 0P9CIMG.zip" ?

The tampered just means that your phone was previously unlocked/rooted.
Follow all the instructions in the second part of THIS thread, making sure to use YOUR RUU file.
If that fails, re-unlock your bootloader, re-flash a custom recovery, and install custom ROM or a backup.
I have to ask, why did you decide to unroot and relock?
Also swearing isn't allowed on the forums in any way, don't try to get around it.

After it didn't work using CMD, I looked up the thread you linked and what do I see? You saying it should be done with the sdcard method haha, so I tried it that way and it worked. Thanks for all the help Drew.
I wanted to return to stock because of 3 reasons. I might be swapping my phone for an M7, because even though we have to wait till March/April, I do want that sweet, sweeeet Lollipop+Sense update (if the trade doesn't work), and because even though CM11 is stable, I got sick of it. CM12 has some minor bugs that just get on my nerves.

That's easy, if you wipe system partition in custom recovery, your Rom will be gone, you'll need to flash a nandroid backup (easy) or RUU (harder)to get it back

My Evo 4G is boot looped on the "HTC EVO 4G" whitescreen.
Instead of giving the whole story, I'm just going to supply what I believe is relevant - please let me know if additional info would help.
Bootloader Reads:
SUPERSONIC EVT2-3 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-2.10.0001
RADIO-2.15.00.11.19
Symptoms/Behavior Observed:
I cannot boot into recovery (I just end up boot looping as described).
I can enter FASTBOOT USB and the "fastboot devices" command indicates my phone is connected.
Any "fastboot erase" or "fastboot flash" command results in "FAILED (remote: not allowed)", so I suspect my HBOOT is not the engineering version.
I cannot seem to connect with ADB, though I've only tried from FASTBOOT USB and HBOOT USB, since I can't fully boot.
Attempting to flash any image with the PC36IMG.zip method results in the file being loaded and parsed, but I'm never prompted to update or reboot, I just end up back at the main bootloader screen.
Restoring from an RUU appears to complete successfully, (radio version changes accordingly if I do so), but the phone still boot loops. I've tried multiple RUU versions.
Selecting "clear storage" from the boot menu also doesn't have any apparent effect.
Thoughts appreciated...thanks
EDIT: #5 is no longer a problem - now I seem to be able to flash via the PC36IMG method just fine.
U might have a bad SD card. Try wiping card and then try again
Here's an update:
Did a full format of the SD card as you suggest.
Then I tried flashing the 2.10 spoofed HBOOT from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=805612&page=3
That got me somewhere! From there I could execute:

Unfortunately, no luck getting into recovery at this point - now I get white htc screen, followed by black screen, 5 vibrations and blinking green LED. (I've seen this before - it seems to happen when I flash to an older stock rom. Flashing back to a newer stock rom causes boot looping from the white htc screen to black.)
From there I ran this RUU:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph....651.1_Radio_1.39.00.04.26_release_171253.exe
Which brought my HBOOT back to 0.79.0000, or so it says.
However, there were no improvements in my ability to boot to recovery or the full OS.
I also tried flashing the PC36IMG version of recovery, but I'm still getting the same behavior.

Sent from my PC36100 using xda app-developers app
Don't know about the others, but the original poster killed that phone, I hate to say it, by flashing the wrong and too many RUUs, in particular from the link that was posted, OUCH. Maybe others are doing the same. I don't know.

I faced a strange behavior of HOX (tegra). It stuck in bootloops - complete boot, starts apps, then black screen and reboot, and all over again till battery drain.
But strange thing is that i can't do anything - all changes that i do disappear after reboot. Deleted files has returned. Disabled wifi|bt are working again. But there is more! About a year ago i has unlocked bootloader, flash cwm recovery. Now, if i flash other recovery (even stock) through fastboot, i still see my old cwm. If i do full wipe in recovery - phone still boot and all apps and files are there. fastboot oem lock has no effect - phone reboot and have "unlocked" message.
When i flash other rom from recovery, of course, nothing changed, however this process goes without any errors. But it does it too quickly, so i think it don't actually writes anything, only "simulates".
Maybe it hardware problem? Or some wicked setting that i've miss?
Arrgh! Looks like a hardware failure to me...
Post the result of fastboot getvar version-main
May b running a ruu or restoring a nandroid might fix this... However, if the Bootloader isn't getting locked... Then I'm afraid running a ruu would be useless...

What was the last thing you changed before the bootloop started?
You said you cant flash recovery, is the bootloader relocked?

But after that recovery still cwm, whatever i flash - stock, twrp or other cwm version.
So i've managed to load RUU mode with "adb shell reboot oem-78". When i try to flash firmware.zip in stops at "adopting the signature contained in this image". So, i think, bootloader must be relocked. How can it be done not by "fastboot oem lock"? Maybe there is another way or command? Maybe patch file or so?
I was trying do something more and was found out that i even can't run parted on dev/block/mmcblk0. So, i think, i will return it to it's owner and he will send it to service center.

No RUU for this base is tooo newer, unlock your bootloader and find nandroid backup and restor it or install custom rom on the phone you are with latest firmware and you daon't have nothing to do with the firmware

I brought this up in a similar thread, but I'm getting pretty desperate for information now. I am trying to root my recently acquired HTC 10. It's running 7.0, and after trying a guide myself, Bootloader mode now reads S-On, Unlocked, and Modified. I have unlocked the bootloader using the HTCdev instructions. I have tried flashing, from Download Mode, the latest TWRP pme from here. In fact, I've tried every .img listed there. After some searching, I tried the four versions found here as well (for future reference, 2 versions of 3.2.1-1, and 3.0.3-10 and -11). My searches recommended trying 3.0.3-6 or -9, but these have vanished from the internet. All .img files I've tried produce the same result. 1, Flash succeeds. 2, I choose "reboot to recovery mode" or call the command through adb. 3, the phone shows the HTC logo with red disclaimer text beneath it. 4, the phone reboots on its own. 5, the same screen from 3 shows, HTC logo + red text. 6, the phone reboots back into Bootloader mode.
Does anyone have any suggestions, or is anyone able to find the TWRP 3.0.3-6 or -9 PME versions somewhere?
Quick question would be what region,device model etc... Need more input... Have you tried shutting down device, holding volume down and power button,booting to download mode,reboot to bootloader and then selecting recovery? Twrp-3.1.0-1-pme.img worked fine on my Nougat device(US/Dev Version)...I'd try running an RUU for your device/region from download mode just in case something got messed up somewhere... then retry flashing Twrp

Thanks for the reply.
I have tried your reboot method, but I've never tried an RUU, not sure where to even begin with that. Nevertheless, according the manual with this phone, it is an HTC 10 M10h (intended for use in EU). Is there a different image for the EU version, or is part of the process different? I didn't see information in any guides to distinguish that.
One other thought. When flashing TWRP using commands on your computer, what is the output when you flash TWRP?

I noticed in one of these photos, it says 'pmec' at the end of the model info. Using that, I looked up a TWRP pmec image, which seems to have flashed properly now. Thank you @Wonders_Never_Cease for the guiding question. Hopefully the rest of this works out as planned.
EDIT: Thanks for the help there. I had no idea that I would need a different TWRP, pmec instead of pme, in order to get into recovery on this model. Everything has been installed and rooted now. Thank you so much for the help.
Edit :
Deleted, didn't notice the edit above.
Cheers
Glad you got it sorted...??

I have a Lenovo P2, unrooted, on stock Android, with a 256mb micro SD card. It hasn't been unlocked/flashed/rooted in any way apart from Developer Options to allow ADB.
A couple of days ago the phone started to lag and lock up, and then rebooted into "AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure)" menu. The only options are Start/Barcodes/Power Off.
The Start and Power Off/On options simply reboot back to the same screen after a couple of seconds. It won't boot back into Android with any combination of volume up/down/power buttons, or offer me any other options such as recovery or clear cache etc.
I've tried rebooting with/without the SD card - it makes no difference.
The phone still appears to be recognised by ADB when I connect it to a laptop - it appears in 'fastboot devices' - but I still can't get it to exit fastboot and boot back into Android with any ADB command.
I've tried downloading Reiboot and "15 second adb" toolkits which claim to exit fastboot mode, but without success.
I'm assuming the bootloader is corrupted.
Can anyone please point me towards any possible action for fixing it, or is it bricked?
Many thanks.

The thing you are on now is the bootloader...
What you did is probably soft bricked the phone.
What did you perform with adb?
If your rom is not booting you might need to reinstall it.

Here's what I've tried with ADB - the phone seems to be connected as evidenced by "fastboot devices", but I don't know what to do now. "Fastboot reboot" just brings me back to the same Fastboot screen in my original post, as does holding down vol+/vol-/power for several seconds.
I successfully unlocked/flashed a ZTE San Francisco Blade back in the day, so I don't mind trying to flash this P2 if that's the answer and you can point me towards a noob-friendly guide, please.

and have downloaded all the firmware files linked on that page, ie https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=205781
Do I need to unlock the bootloader first?
Well, when I tried to "fastboot oem unlock", I got
fastboot oem unlock
...
FAILED (remote: oem unlock error: partition tampered
I then tried the Flash commands given, and got this error;
Fastboot flash system systemchunk0.img
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'system' (260121 KB)...
OKAY [ 9.303s]
writing 'system'...
FAILED (remote: Not official valid sparse image)
finished. total time: 9.379s
I got this with every set of firmware files on the download link. Am I trying to use the wrong firmware images?
Thanks for any tips and suggestions.

You have to find and flash a valid flash image, try with the same version you were installed on
Can someone provide me with a twrp restore file? I tried to flash the stock rom but the bat file that came with it tampered with some files and I can't even boot into the stock rom
