I am assuming that your device is S-ON which requires boot.img(Kernel) to flashed via fastboot. So basic question, Which ROM did you flash and didn't work? What recovery are you on?
Elaborate your issue to in order to get more direction resolution.

Don't worry follow this simple steps and you're all set.
First up make sure you've Vol. Up and Down + Power button works perfectly fine, then proceed to next.
-Turn off your device, Hold Vol. Down and Press n Hold Power Button, It will take you to bootloader. Wait there 2-3sec. Then connect your device to PC.
-Once you connect, if drivers for your HTC installed correctly than your pc should recognize your device, then Press Power button on your device. It will take you to FASTBOOT USB
-Now leave your device as is.
-Headover to PC and extract given HTC Fastboot Files onto :C drive somewhere you can easily access it.
-Hold Shift Key + Right Key(mouse pad) and open Command Prompt from inside the htc fastboot folder where you've extracted that .zip
-Once you see command prompt type fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-TWRP-ace-2.8.6.1-unofficial.img exactly as i've wrote here.
-After successfully flashed recovery.img type fastboot reboot recovery , it will take you to TWRP Recovery, there you need to perform Clean Wipe prior to flash any ROM on your device.
-Click on Wipe and Swipe right to perform wipe.
-Flash any rom made for Desire HD, Or you see on this Desire HD forum. ex. Xperia ROM or CM12.1 any.
-Once process completes go to reboot to bootloader!!! Don't click on Reboot System/Device otherwise you'll need to take out battery and place onto bootloader manually. Just click Reboot Bootloader.
-After that connect your device to back to pc.
-Lastly extract or drag boot.img from ROM.zip(the one you've flashed onto your device) to htc fastboot folder and open command prompt.
-Finally under commant prompt type fastboot flash boot boot.img and then fastboot reboot
Done.

I tried to root and install CM10 on my HTC One X (AT&T) (v2.20). However, I have run into trouble. Here is what happened:
Successfully rooted phone using Hasooon2000's All-in-one Kit
Flashed Recovery Successfully (I think) using the All-in-one Kit
I'm now able to boot into "TWRP" but I'm not really sure what to do next.

Yes, unfortunately.
Is the phone an evita or endevour? (quad core or dual core). What recovery did you flash? CWM or TWRP?
Try connecting the phone through usb and go to your adb folder and type in cmd: fastboot devices / fastboot list devices see if it is recognized.
Also try holding the power button and volume down button for 1 minute, it might reboot a few times and go back to the screen but I think it should jump back to your Hboot.

Thanks! Okay, I was able to get to TWRP but I'm not sure what to do next.
Well if you are in the recovery now make sure the rom you have downloaded is on your phone.
First open the rom.zip in your computer and take out the file called boot.img. Put this file in your fastboot folder.
Now boot your phone back into fastboot mode
then run this in cmd. "fastboot flast boot boot.img" from the folder your fastboot is located etc. if you are using the boot.img flasher from the rom make sure to put the boot.img there
It will send the boot.img to your phone and say if it is succesful.
Next boot back into your recovery and install the rom zip from inside the recovery.
wrong section, don't flash anything here..
Wrong Forum1!
Bro u have a dual core(At&t) version.The hardware is totally different ..Please post in in the thread for ur phone.

Thanks! This worked. I'm now running Jelly Bean -- way better than all that AT&T garbage!

Hi,
It sounds like you just need to flash the boot.img from the rom you are trying to flash in fastboot. I suspect you are still s-on? If so that is the problem you are having and can be fixed pretty easy. Can you boot to the white bootloader screen and confirm for me if it is indeed s-on still? It will be S-on if you unlocked via HTCDev
If you are s-off then you most likely just need to wipe cache, dalvik cache, and factory reset in CWM then reboot
FYI - You do not need to be rooted on current rom to install a rom via custom recovery.
Hope this helps!
That didnt help Kevin or may be i did it wrong.
I extracted the boot.img from the ROM i was trying to install & then i created a boot.zip from that boot.img
I moved it to the SD card & tried to install it. It showed installation aborted.
What should i do??

Thanks & appreciate your efforts..

Hi,
Sorry for the confusion, you need to flash the boot.img directly in fastboot to flash it, not in a zip via recovery. Can you boot to the white bootloader screen by powering off phone then pressing and holding Power + Vol Down? If so please tell me if you are s-on at top of white screen.
If it says s-on on bootloader screen then you need to connect phone to PC, and then choose top option on the list (fastboot) at bottom of screen by pressing power button this should make middle of screen change to say "fastboot usb plug" If this is true you need to copy the boot.img from rom you are trying to install to the folder you have the fastboot file in. From there you need to open command prompt in that same folder by hovering mouse over bottom white part of the folder fastboot is in and hold shift and right click . Now choose Open command prompt here from the pop up menu. Finally in the black command prompt box type:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then hit enter. Now type:
fastboot reboot
And hit enter, let me know if phone will fully boot now.
If you have too much trouble with this and want me to help further, please install Teamviewer and I can connect remotely and have you fixed up in a bout 5 mins if you want.
Good luck and hope this helps!

Ah no biggies!
You need to have unlocked bootloader for this.
You can unlock bootloader here. But first backup DRM keys using procedure here.
This Guide is for Kitkat ROM's.
Got everything now. Follow the following steps, You will have the ROM in Your phone by it:
1) Copy both the ROM.zip and gapps.zip to Your phone.
1) This step is on PC.. Download this boot.img. This is required as the boot.img of some Kitkat ROM's don't have TWRP built in or have incompatible recovery. Rename it to boot.img
3) Then copy it to "C:\Flashtool\x10flasher_lib" or wherever You installed the flashtool. We need to copy this to there since we need to use 'adb.exe' and 'fastboot.exe' from here.
4) Open command prompt on the same path as above.
5) Switch off Your phone. Then connect the cable to PC but not to phone. Press volume up button on Your phone and while pressing it, connect the cable to phone. Blue LED will lit up. If there is no blue LED, do this step again.
6) Then use these commands in command prompt to flash the boot.img to the phone:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
The boot.img is used to just get the TWRP to the phone to flash the ROM.
7) Now Your phone won't boot normally if You try to do that. What You need to do is as soon as the device powers up, try entering recovery. Since we flashed the boot.img, it will boot into recovery.
8) Then format system, data, and cache. This will delete all Your apps and their data. It won't delete Your sdcard data. Be careful, don't format sdcard by mistake!
9) Now flash the ROM.zip from recovery.
10) Format cache and dalvik cache only.
11) Flash gapps from recovery.
12) Reboot! Done!
The first boot and reboot are a bit long. During reboot, the phone will seem to be stuck at the Sony logo, but it is just processing, so no need to worry.
In case You don't have TWRP after flashing the ROM, You can follow the procedure from here to flash the recovery.
Kitkat instructions end here.
Lollipop ROM:Link to Android Lollipop (5.0) gapps : Link.
For flashing the AOSP ROM's:
1) This step is on PC.. Download this boot.img. This is required as the boot.img from AOSP Lollipop ROM's don't have inbuilt recovery. Download the the root binaries from here if You are using Pure AOSP ROM by billchen1977 only.
2) Copy the ROM.zip, gapps.zip and SuperSU.zip to Your phone.
3) Then copy boot.img to "C:\Flashtool\x10flasher_lib" or wherever You installed the flashtool. We need to copy this to there since we need to use 'adb.exe' and 'fastboot.exe' from here.
4) Open command prompt on the same path as above.
5) Switch off Your phone. Then connect the cable to PC but not to phone. Press volume up button on Your phone and while pressing it, connect the cable to phone. Blue LED will lit up. If there is no blue LED, do this step again.
6) Then use these commands in command prompt to flash the boot.img to the phone:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
The boot.img is used to just get the TWRP to the phone to flash the ROM.
7) Now Your phone won't boot normally if You try to do that. What You need to do is as soon as the device powers up, try entering recovery by pressing volume up button when the LED turn blue. Since we flashed the boot.img, it will boot into recovery.
8) Then format system, data, and cache.. This will delete all Your apps and their data. It won't delete Your sdcard data. Be careful, don't format sdcard by mistake!
9) Now flash the ROM.zip from recovery.
10) Format cache and dalvik cache only.
11) Flash gapps from recovery.
12) Do this step only for billchen1977's Pure AOSP ROM! Flash the SUperSU downloaded in the first instruction. If You are flashing nAOSP by mickybart, don't follow this step, skip to next step.
13) Reboot!
14) After flashing the Lollipop ROM, You loose Your recovery, You can get it back by following the procedure here.
15) After flashing a Lollipop ROM, the first boot displays only boot animation for 10-15 minutes. This doesn't mean Your phone is bricked, it is just initializing the apps. During second boot, it will seem to be stuck at "Sony" logo for 5 minutes. This is also normal.
Suppose You are not able to recover at some point and can't wait for next reply, You can flash a stock firmware using flashtool.

4) Open command prompt on the same path as above.
5) Connect Your phone to PC switched on, unlocked(from lock screen) and Developer options enabled.
6) Then use these commands in command prompt to flash the boot.img to the phone:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot boot.img
The first command is used to reboot phone to bootloader. Bootloader reboot is usually used to flash kernels to phone.
The boot.img here consists a kernel specific to this ROM. It also has inbuilt recovery(either a CWM or TWRP.)
7) Now Your phone won't boot normally if You try to do that. What You need to do is as soon as the device powers up, try entering recovery. Since we flashed the boot.img, it will boot into recovery.

Then You have not installed fastboot drivers. You need to install them from drivers folder in the setup location of Flashtool.
Else instead of step 5, switch off Your phone and disconnect it from PC. Then hold the volume up button and connect the phone to PC. The blue light will come on. And the release the volume up button. And just use the "fastboot flash boot boot.img" command.

You can also use an app called Rashr to flash the boot.img kernel instead of fastboot (at your own risk of course)...

Go to Original Android developement. It's in the pre-rooted thread, these are the ONLY img files for roms available unless you push the zip file using ADB...
Flash the system zip file rather than trying to flash simply the .img. The zip files are in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/development/asus-zenfone-2-rom-t3054956) and might help because you're also flashing default recovery... could be CWM.
Also try flashing using fastboot.
your phone model?

1. download the latest recovery from here https://dl.twrp.me/Z00A/ and firmware from here http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZE551ML/UL-Z00A-WW-2.20.40.97-user.zip

3.the adb driver should have installed in your pc OS drive [ which is C: ] put the downloaded recovery and firmware in that folder [where adb is installed] then in that folder, open command window by pressing shift and right click and a dialogue box will appear then open the command window from there and enter this command fastboot flash recovery {name of the recovery twrp something}.img then connect your phone to your pc and enter bootloader in your phone and press enter in command window.
4.after that put the downloaded firmware in any sdcard and put it in your phone then open recovery mode in your phone and go to reboot>recovery [yeah you have to reboot the recovery] then when recovery open again then go to wipe>advanced wipe> and select system,data,cache,dalvik and internal storage [internal storage is optional but if you choose it then it will wipe all your data in your phone] then wipe it and go to install section then choose the extsdcard [it should be written internal storage click on that then you can choose your external storage] then in the extstorage choose the firmware you downloaded and just swipe to flash.
5.patience ..because it would take time and maybe get stuck at 52% or 59% ..so just let it take time for installation [btw connect your phone to thr charger in this process]
6.after it done then reboot your phone and ALL DONE. [the first boot will take some mins to boot up]

Hi.
So I was messing around with the twrp custom recovery and (without thinking much of it) wiped everything in the advanced wipe menu :crying: (System, data, EVERYTHING)
I knew I had removed my OS and that I could just use the twrp recovery to install a new rom onto my phone BUT little did I know, when I tried to boot into the custom recovery, it would just loop the screen with the redmi logo
I am still able to boot into fastboot mode, and I have tried to flash the same twrp recovery but with no avail (It still loops the redmi logo screen)
So now I'm here to ask if there is any advice that you could give me to try and fix this problem that I have gotten myself in (I am not worried about deleting any of my personal files. I would just like to get twrp to boot so that I can install another rom)
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me with this problem :highfive:

Hi, thanks for the fast reply.
The stock android I had before I wiped everything was android 9, MIUI 11. I tried againt to flash the recovery through fast boot but (like before) when I try to boot into the recovery (by holding the volume up button as it reboots), the redmi logo keeps appearing and disappearing and doesn't go to the twrp recovery. At the current moment I don't have any OS installed (since it got deleted when I wiped everything)
Any other leads I could try?

I'm not sure how I can flash the stock ROM without the twrp recovery. I had the impression that you needed twrp recovery in order to install ROMs in the first place.
If there is a method to flash a ROM using fastboot, please explain since my unexperienced self has no idea how to do this. :laugh:

MiFlash works through fastboot mode. It's also safer to flash with MiFlash, just make sure you have the correct ROM.
I can't find the guide right now, I'm at work

Yes, this is the method I used to flash the twrp recovery.
My problem was that even after installing it (using this method), i would still not be able to boot into the recovery.
However, it is fixed now. I used the Mi Flash tool in order to install the stock rom and then installed twrp after that. :good:

MiFlash works through fastboot mode. It's also safer to flash with MiFlash, just make sure you have the correct ROM.
I can't find the guide right now, I'm at work

I tried this method and IT WORKED!!
After installing Mi flash I was able to download the stock rom and install it through the program without any errors.
I was then able to finally boot into the OS and install twrp recovery, then install the custom rom! :laugh:
Thanks for this method. I would probably still be stuck on the Redmi logo if it weren't for this
