Hey guys,
Earlier today I tried to root this device by using hasoon2000's all in one kit. I completed all the steps and got stuck at the flashing a kernel part. I tried to flash a kernel, the device rebooted and now is stuck at the HTC white booting screen.
What did I do wrong? How can this be fixed?
Thanks guys.
To flash kernels from recovery... you need to be s-off...
If you are using hansoons toolkit... did you install the fast boot drivers?

You need to flash the boot.img of the rom that you're restoring first before restoring. Also, what were you trying to do that cause the phone getting stuck at the white screen?

How do i flash the boot.img? I was returning to the stock rooted rom on my phonethrough a restore and my phone just got stuck at the white screen. SO, i just freaked out and relocked my bootloader, then tried to have it flash the original PH39IMG zip and now my phone wont load that zip. It says its doing it then goes back to the main menu in HBOOT.

fastboot flash boot.img
But before that your first sentence proves that you've haven't done enough reading before you attempted this. Reunlock the bootloader...read this guide how to do it (read it several times before you attempt). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416836
If you have any questions after reading several times, please ask them in that thread.

Thank you. I tried doing all of that and my phone is still stuck a the HTC White screen. I did everything up to the flashing the VIVID_CWM_ROOT_VER2 zip and it is still stuck at the white HTC BOOT screen.
By any chance is your bootloader unlocked?

1. Make sure to have the zip of CWM on the root of your sdcard
2. Have the phone off
3. Power into HBOOT (power + vol down)
4. Select recovery
5. Flash the zip of CWM
Hey. I tried doing that and my phone is still stuck at the HTC white bootup screen.

Yeah your phone should do that because you didn't flash the boot.img when restoring the stock rom. Get a rom that you want to use and follow the instructions on how to flash the boot and then flashing the rom thru CWM
what do you mean boot.img? I have a rom that i want to use HoliRaider v 1.6. Should i just flash that rom through CWM?
read step three of the superuser guide
Thank you so much!! I have a question about that. How do I "Extract the boot.img out of the kernel file you want and put it in the same directory as your fastboot.exe/fastboot executable"? How do I put it in the same directory as my fastboot.exe/fastboot executable?
HoliRaider has a separate kernel file to d/l

Wrong forum, but try flashing a recovery the proper way using fastboot.
Thank you. I did get back into it using hasoons tool kit.
I Was reading that if you dl goomanager and install the recovery it offers it works, Can anyone confirm?

I've never had any luck with good manager. I've written it off. I use TWRP Recovery myself, which I believe is the recovery you're talking about? I judt download it directly from TeamWin's website.
I feel like a broken record....
In the apps and themes section there is flashimagegui... It will correctly flash kernels and recovery on s-on devices

Same thing with ROM manager. Its just screws up your phone
As Ess said, dl thru TWRP site and flash thru ADB tools. Works a treat

Hi there,
I've used for a while with AT&T ROM without any problem.
Successfully rooted and CWM installed.
I tried to flash my phone by this ROM using CWM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2171741
However I failed. My phone didn't work with it.
Now, I cannot go into my CWM anymore. Although I reinstalled it.
I still can access to Bootloader. Select Recovery but it showed some scripts then it couldn't go further.
Anyone can tell me how to fix it?
I am frightened now since my phone is nothing more than garbage now I cannot do anything with my phone
Thank you so much
You're gonna have to relock your bootloader and run the RUU then unlock your bootloader to flash your recovery again, then you'll be able to run your recovery again. Also if you're S-ON, you have to extract the boot.img from the rom you installed and flash it before you install the rom, otherwise the phone won't boot.
Download another recovery to your computer...
Go into hboot... go to fastboot... connect via USB
Fastboot flash recovery (recovery name)
Reboot bootloader... choose recovery

Hello,
I did the way you said and it worked!!
Thank you very much.
Note: I think the ROM I flashed had some kind of weird code that led to the problem.
I used AT&T edition for my Bell Canada phone. RUU said failed during the process, however, that's when I reinstalled my CWM and it works again!
Thank you everyone for helping me with this question!
Get away from CWM...
Switch to TWRP or WCX

Ur welcome and like do what ringfool said CWM doesn't play well with this device. I personally use WCX but switch recovery cuz most of the time roms flash with errors is because of the recovery.

Yes! CWM really works badly on HTC Holiday.
WCX really rocks! It shows everything precisely and large enough to look haha.
Most of ROMs can be flashed using WCX. CWM cannot open some
TWRP for the win...Is that redundant? Flashed it last night, works flawlessly with the cm10 rom
Someone needs too post a really big sign somewhere in these forums that says DO NOT USE CWM I have seen at least 5 guys in the last month getting screwed because of it. :sad:

Okay. So I rooted my HTC One a few days ago.
I had a problem with the /system folder still being protected so I installed Viper's kernel thing for HTC One.
This however, caused my wi-fi to be broken.
I then attempted to install Viper's custom rom and when the phone tried to boot back up it just kept looping and showing they HTC brilliant screen with red text saying development bla bla.
I have tried to install a stock rom and attempted to install a RUU, but none of it worked and got me past the boot loop.
I have TWRP Recovery, but it isn't mounting any of the folders correctly.
I have access to adb and fastboot commands, but none of that has been able to help me so far.
When I tried to install the RUU it gave me an error saying 12 verifications failed.
I have no access to android in anyway so I only have bootloader and recovery to work with.
I would appreciate any help you can give me. I have looked at tons of threads on here and found nothing that worked!
Did you flash ViperRom or ViperOne?

i unlocked my phone bootloader after that i flashed cwm recovery via toolkit but after that my phone just stuck on cwm,i rebooted so manyy time but no luck.i tried diffrent recoveries and kernals but facing same issue.sometime phone shows black screen after reboot.plz i need help.i am from india.
What is the need to state that you are from India?! Anyways, if you're not having any luck, you could always flash an RUU to go completely back to stock and start over. I also highly recommend TWRP over CWM, but that is mostly my own opinion.
