Incredible S boot loop, no recovery - HTC Incredible S

I am completely knew to android modding so please go in detail and give links.
I was working on putting Icecoldsandwich on my phone. I had trouble getting it booting because I wrote the boot.img and didnt have clockworksmod installed. I installed it and got Icecoldsandwich installed but it was incredibly laggy. and took about 15 minutes to boot. I guess i missed something obviously. So i was tried to flash back some files i found which were apperently the original ones, still stuck at boot logo, I flashed back clockworksmod and it will not boot any more. Is my phone bricked, or am i just doing everything wrong? Please help
My phone is not rooted, bootloader unlocked

Recovory mode error

Recently picked up a HTC Raider from Rogers, played around with it and decided to root it. Rooted my Acer A500 previously without problems so had some understanding. Had to use supertool to get root as I got errors using the other method in the super guide. Was going to install vjraider rom and did the kernal but now the phone wont boot up. Gets stuck on the white HTC screen. I can get into H-Boot but when I select recovery I get stuck on a screen with a phone and the red triangle exclamation mark. Tried searching around but haven't found anything relating to this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated
sounds to me that you do NOT have recovery on it. did you unlock your bootloader?
Yup bootloader is unlocked. I managed to get it a recovery mood by using fastboot and putting the recovery.img in the ph391img.zip and i got into CWM 5.5.0.4 installed the rom after all the wipes and now I got a boot loop... Im thinking I must have somehow removed the kernel when I used fastboot
Flashed the kernel for the rom again in fastboot and now everything seems to work. Rom is up running with everything seeming good so far.

[Q] Attempting ICS update, stuck on HTC boot screen

Hi everyone,
Semi-experienced guy here, played around with my old Aria lots but haven't really done much to the new Vivid besides unlocking the bootloader and installing CWM.
I ran the S-OFF program, worked like a charm. Then I flashed wcxrecovery, no problems there. Then I loaded the PH139 update file to prepare for an ICS custom ROM, and that loaded everything OK. I hit reboot, and now the phone will not go past the initial HTC boot screen. No loops, just stays on that screen. Neither ADB nor fastboot will recognize the phone.
So, how do I extricate myself from this situation?

Never mind, got myself out of panic mode and I'm booting up ICS now.

[Q] HTC One rooting issue - aka cant get recovery to boot!

Hello everyone! I was attempting to root my HTC One on Sprint, and I successfully completed unlocking the bootloader following the instructions found on htcdev.com. The next step (correct me if im wrong) is to flash a recovery.
I attempted (using fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) to flash ClockworkMod, ClockworkMod Touch, TWRP, and even a (supposed) original recovery img. However, each time, it fails to load the recovery. What happens is the phone shows 'Booting Recovery...', then simply goes black, never to turn on.
In order to get the phone usable, I have to hold down the power button for ten seconds and then boot it back to android. Any ideas on what's causing this?

My first question are you sure it says unlocked in hboot?

Yeah, I have tried Hasoon2000's tool, but no change. I wonder, would a factory reset help?
When you try to send ity does it say .. sending? and done or does it give you an error message.
Hey, turns out I had been using Hasoon's Toolkit for the One, not the One on Sprint! It installed TWRP like a charm! Thank you! I had been stuck for weeks on this!
Cool.. Glad you figured it out... have fun flashing!!

Frankenstein htc one bootloop again :'( help!

So,
I've been around my phone for a couple months now, as you can see here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-htc-one/help/couple-issues-replacing-camera-mic-t2982125) i've replaced alot of parts and initially had a problem with bootloader stuck on bootloop. I followed the link the user, coal686 posted and it worked. But the new camera and bottom speaker were screwed so i had to replace them again, i got stuck again on a bootloop but the guide is not working anymore (for me). Could someone give me some help? What else can i do? i've tried to flash twrp and boot to recovery but it just boots again to the splash screen , turns off and boots again :\
edit:I gave it another try and now it worked, i disconnected the battery for a while.

Bootloop issue

Hi,
I've made a huge mistake when flashing a stock image back onto my nexus 6, I was on Chroma Rom with TWRP recovery, I'd dropped my phone which I am claiming for on my insurance, the phone still works but the screen is cracked, because of the repairs I wanted to ensure that my phone was back running stock. When flashing recovery I stupidly forgot to reflash stock recovery before re-locking the bootloader. My phone is refusing to boot into android, and I can't unlock the bootloader because of the developer option introduced in Android 5.0.
Please somebody tell me there is a way around this, and that I haven't bricked my phone.
Thanks in advance.
Please disregard this thread. I managed to get out of the bootloop by using TWRP, I got could not mount errors every previous time I tried it, but it worked the latest time.
