I have an Incredible S, running CM-7.1.I tried updating to CM-7.2, and I got a wi-fi error, couldn't turn on the wi-fi. Tried nightly versions of 7.2 the same problem came up. I switched to MIUI rom (2.3, 2.4, 2.8, 2.9) and I got the same problem. Wi-fi could not work. The only rom that works on my mobile phone is the CM-7.1I dont want that ROM anymore. Now I am close throwing the phone on the wall, so please suggest me a way to clean my phone from every data possible, and give me a link to a stable ROM I can download. Any advice will be useful

Yes I am. I cannot install any ROMS, excepts CM-7.1, and I am looking for a way to wipe everything on my phone and install a MUIU working ROM. or any other ROM
Till you are s on you have to flash the boot.img inside the Rom.zip manually via fastboot.
Means, extract the boot.img into your fastboot folder on pc, flash the Rom on the Device, go into bootloader - fastboot and write on the pc in the terminal
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
And reboot device.
If you had a s off bootloader you won't have to do that.

Which one requires less time? option 1 or 2?
Can u give me detailed instructions to use flashboot (option 1)?
How can I s-off my bootloader?
Option 2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22789885
Since you are s-on recovery can't enter the boot partition, means you have the flash the boot.img again with the kernel and modules for WiFi, Calling etc.
But you can access it through fastboot so you have to reflash it.
Helpful enough?

Edit, since you are s-on you will maybe have to downgrade your hboot and flash the revolutionary hboot, but I can't explain that now 'cos I have tomorrow my first school day and I have to look good
You can use the search funktion, keywords: downgrade, revolutionary

Just like what Silversniper said, just flash boot.img which extract from the ROM.

as the title, my phone couldnt get into adb to get s-off
You need either HTC Dev unlock
or revolutionary s off to flash a custom ROM
That's the simple explanation

Sent from my Nexus 7
If you're unlocked through htc dev, just flash custom recovery (4ext touch recommended) and you can flash custom roms after that.
Just make sure to flash boot.img through adb as said by mark. Always do this after flashing new rom when you are s-on.

Every time you flash a new ROM or kernel you need to open up the zip of the new ROM and fast boot flash it, otherwise it probably wont boot unless there is a similar kernel already

If you use the app to install recovery, make sure to extract the recovery.img file in the downloaded zip and manually flash that through fastboot. Only have to do this while s-on

Hi,
i have a Velocity with HTC Sense 3.5 and Android Gingerbread (Germany/Vodafone) and HBoot 1.85 and S-ON.
I have unlocked the bootloader and use Clockwork for installing Custom ROM, but every attempt to do that is failing.
I work exactly like the ROM instructions.
I start the recovery, wipe system, data, chace, dalvic and then (only if ROM instruction request first install the kernel via (Fastboot flash boot boot.IMG)) and then /or at first install the ROM via the recovery. The installation completed successfully. Then i copy the created boot.img on my sdcard via fastboot (Fastboot flash boot boot.IMG). It works so far.
When i restart the phone the logo of the custom rom appears, then i get into a bootloop. That happens with every rom, doenst matter if ICS or JB, nothing works.
What is the problem here.
I'll mention that the adb doesnt work on my PC it always says "no device" but fastboot work.
Fastboot flash boot boot.IMG
Your only using the kernel to boot... not writing it to boot sector
Sent from my Vivid 4G using Tapatalk 2
sry, yeah i did it with "Fastboot flash boot boot.IMG"
anything else that could produce my error?
Well you need to either do the ota or use the ICS ruu to upgrade to ICS that's why nothing will boot
Sent from my Vivid 4G using Tapatalk 2
What is ota?
I dont understand why i have to upgrade via ruu. For example this ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1585373) there is a instruction how to do with fastboot. But doesnt work. There must be an explanation for that.
But ok, even i want do it via an ICS ruu, can i use my created recovery of gingerbread via clockwork recovery or does it stuck then, too?
Once you do the ruu to ics... your recovery backup will be useless
Sent from my Vivid 4G using Tapatalk 2
Use the old version of go backup. Not the pro. You can find it on 4shared. Then run ruu

I give you a tip i have flashed 3 HTC Velocitys in last year but the stablelst, fastest and pefect rom is the new Cyanogenmog 10 nighty from hr8rift, another developer end his work in the middle of end and then you lives with many bugs and bricked the ram for a long time.....
Vodafone is a **** provider he hasnt rollout the 4.0.3 on their phones, many Peoples are angry.
And the Quality from flash is better in HTC as Samsung Galaxy devices
Cyanogenmod 10 is in nightly and works very good its .4.1.2.
I think the final comes in few monts or weeks

What ROM was it? Did you try to flash the boot.img instead of the ROM.zip? I didn't really understand your original post.
If you flash the Zip it should go through the whole Aroma installer, etc...

You don't need to flash boot.img after flashing ARHD. I'm using ARHD with a custom kernel and never flashed a boot.img once.

Hi, I'm a new user.
I just unlocked my bootloader, and I was looking to put a custom Rom on my device .
But wherever I look , I can't find a custom recovery.
Can you introduce some custom recoveries to me.
Oh and I don't know how to put a custom recovery on my phone too,so I need some help with this too. =))
Ps: I don't want to root my phone.

To flash one of them, rename the IMG file to recovery, place it into your fastboot folder, boot into bootloader(fastboot mode) open command prompt navigate to your directory
Command to flash is "fastboot flash recovery recovery.IMG"

The preliminary steps are to unlock bootloader (which I assume he has done that or if he is on HBOOT 1.13.0000, then use Revolutionary to S-OFF and then flash custom recovery and root), flash ClockworkMod recovery, then flash a superuser.zip to obtain root.

So I did a system update for my phone on Friday and when it went to restart after the update it was stuck on the 'htc quietly brilliant'.
I don't how to get it booted successfully and have tried the recovery options in the menu except for the one that resets everything, just in case I am able to not lose much. I have read a lot about this and tried connecting by usb but it doesnt show up on my computer.
Is there any way to get the phone to boot?
In the recovery menu it says:
'failed to open loopdevice (No such file or directory)'
it says that 6 times then says
failed to mount /sdcard (No such or directory)
Bootloader screen says:

if you have another phone or an sd card adapter, you can put the ROM on the sd card, then boot to recovery, flash the ROM, boot to bootloader and flash the kernel via fastboot and then wipe cache and dalvik cache again and then your phone will reboot. if you are reflashing stock rom then no need to flash kernel.
and no it wont delete superuser if you are using a custom rom or a rooted stock rom.
