Have to tryed this from the faq?
Q: I have unlocked HBOOT 2.00.000 using the procedure at HTCDV.com and have installed a custom recovery and flash custom ROM xxxxxx, but it now hangs at the white HTC screen and won’t boot.
A: With the unlocked HBOOT 2.00.0000 the boot partition is mounted ReadOnly in Recovery mode, thus when you attempt to flash a custom ROM, the boot.img is not correctly updated.
You must manually extract the boot.img from the rom’s zip file and flash it in FASTBOOT USB mode.
1. Since you have an unlocked HBOOT 2.00.0000, then you have installed the Android SDK with adb.exe and fastboot.exe. Open the rom’s zip file and extract and copy the boot.img file to the same directory where adb.exe and fastboot.exe are installed.
2. Boot the phone into HBOOT by holding the Volume Down key and the Power key.
3. On the HBOOT menu select the FASTBOOT option.
4. Connect your phone to the PC.
5. From the PC type:
fastboot devices
6. You should see your device serial number output to the PC screen.
7. From the PC type:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
8. You should see the results of the boot.img being written.
9. From the PC type:
fastboot reboot
10. The phone should then reboot normally.

BTW it would be better if you had s-offed with nonverbose's tool, you wouldn't have to void warranty..

thank you so much. my english isnt so good either (i am from norway)
Have you got it working?
If not you could try flashing the boot.img. get the boot.img from the cm7 folder then but it in your android folder with your adb stuff. Then flash it from fastboot using commands.
Fastboot flash boot.img
I think that's what you would type? You might want to check.

Hi,
I used the procedure here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14693680) to root and install CWM v4.0.1.4 on my Incredible S and while I was trying to flash a custom ROM onto my phone during CWM recovery, I kind of screwed up by wiping everything and not doing Backup.. I've been trying to find the Stock ROM for my phone to at least resume normal phone usage but I have been unable to find any. I've tried installing a lot of Custom ROMs including Cyanogen mod 7.1, Virtuous Quattro rc3, BinDroid RUNMED2.5, RCMix.Energized 2.21, etc, etc but nothing works. I desperately need advice as my phone is super important for my work :\
Please advise!
Btw here's my HBOOT message:

My phone was on Android 2.3.4 and it was on HTC Sense 2.1..
Unlocked bootloader from htcdev.com? Need to know your region/carrier/cid.
Possible fix could be flashing boot.img from custom rom.zip in fastboot.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img

I'm not sure how to find out my region. I bought this phone 2nd-hand so I'm not sure about the specific details. I have the box and it says it's made in Taiwan. Do I provide the IMEI, S/N or P/N?
Sorry but what's a boot.img? :|

EDIT:
I tried copying the boot.img from Cyanogen Mod 7.1.0 (File name: update-cm-7.1.0-RC1-IncS-signed) into C:/, then I typed "fastboot flash boot boot.img" into cmd after I 'cd' into C:/
Message:
C:\Android>fastboot flash boot boot.img
< waiting for device >
sending 'boot' (2178 KB)... OKAY [ 0.770s]
writing 'boot'... OKAY [ 0.598s]
finished. total time: 1.369s
Rebooting does nothing..
So I wiped (data/cache/Dalvik cache) and flashed the CM7.1.0 mod and now it works!! Amazing.. I spent 8 hours working previously and nothing worked. I shall try it on my real desired ROM later.
THANKS A LOT!

Ok so if you were able to follow the procedure you quoted to install CWM, then you have adb and fastboot installed on your PC, so reboot the phone into FASTBOOT USB mode and then enter the following command and then post the results:
fastboot getvar all
Also was your HBOOT 1.16 S-Off or simply UNLOCKED before you flashed CWM?

Hi! Thanks for your input. Somehow the CM7.1.0 Mod was successfully flashed after I flashed the boot.img. No idea why though.. I am still on S-ON though, unlocked via HTCdev yeap..
Btw since I'm on the topic of custom ROMs on HBOOT 1.16.0000 with S-ON yet flashable, is it safe to say I can use the other ROMs that are available out there?

Yes, but you will have to manually flash the boot.img file from each custom ROM's zip file with the unlocked bootloader.
I installed Android Revolution on my HTC Incredible S and after that all i get is the White screen that says HTC.
Basicaly this is all I did.
I had the Android 4.0.4 version

How did you install BlackRose from the PC since you only have an unlocked bootloader?
I really don't think BlackRose is installed, so you need to extract the boot.img file from the ARHD zip file and flash it manually in FASTBOOT USB mode.
Please send me some links on what to download
I'm lost here
thanks

You have everything downloaded that you need.
Open the ARHD zip file and there will be a file called boot.img. Extract and copy that file to the directory on our PC where you installed the Android SDK tools that you used to unlock your bootloader.
Reboot your phone to the bootloader screen like you do for recovery but select the FASTBOOT menu option instead of RECOVERY and then connect your phone to the PC with your USB cable.
Open a command window on the PC and set the working directory to where you installed the Android SDK tools and then type the command:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
The reboot your phone and it should boot.
I apply the fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin again but i do not get the confirn screen as before. I believe do to the fact that the android system is no longer present.
I thing it's true that my bootloader is still locked, but how do i unlock without the end screen to say yes and no?
Help please http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

Hi,
I think I've done something wrong with updating my phone:
At first I had Android Revolutiom Rom 2.x installed and I wanted to make an update. I didn't realize that I didn't have S-OFF and I made a SuperWipe. Installing the new ARHD 4.0 obviously didn't work, because I only had S-ON. So the phone stucked during booting on the green HTC logo on white background.
I tried other Roms but it didn't come to a happy end
So, what can I do now? Can I install the older version of ARHD 2.x (which I don't have anymore)?
This is what I can see when I turn on the phone with power and volume-up:

Since you have an unlocked bootloader, you simply need to open up the ARHD 4.0 zip file and extract the boot.img file and then manually flash it in FASTBOOT USB mode using the command:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
There are plenty of posts on how to do this.

So I flash again the SuperWipe script and put the ARHD 4.0 zip file back on SD and flash it through CWM? After that I flash manually the boot.img?

Hey guys I badly need help!!! I was able to convert my HTC One GSM to Google Edition just last week, but today I want to restore it to its factory ROM so I can also restore the warranty. Now the problem became visible when I tried to flash a stock ROM (not the GPE ROM). Listed below are the problems I am facing at the moment:
1. Stuck in FASTBOOT USB, and cannot boot to ROM.
2. Can't boot to recovery. Everytime I highlight and select recovery the phone just shows up the "Google" logo, then vibrates, then back fastboot USB.
3. Factory Reset not working, again shows up "Google" then restarts to fastboot usb mode.
4. I ran cmd in sdk-tools, typed in "fastboot devices", and my phone is detected. But when I type "adb devices", my phone is not listed.
5. I tried flashing CWM or TWRP through fastboot in cmd but the reply is"remote: signature verify fail", as wellas flashing a RUU for my device.
6. On bootloader is written:

*** RELOCKED ***

(Read this: download twrp from here then boot into fastboot (bootloader) copy that recovery file to where your adb and fastboot is stored, then type this in fastboot flash recovery (recovery name if you long enter little of the word then press tab) press enter and you should have twrp installed)
Hey there, Go onto HTC Sensation XL Android Development, Download Kingcobra or XL3.6 or XL 4.0
then copy rom to sdcard(internal) make sure to take boot.img out of the zip to where you stored ADB + Fastboot, flash rom on phone, then reboot into bootloader by doing Reboot -> bootloader (make sure pluged into computer) do the command fastboot flash boot boot.img then wait until it says Finished! then do fastboot reboot
And bam you have got Sense 4.1 Sense 4.0 or Sense 3.6
Thank you!
Thank you very much JustPlayingHard for your help it works now
