Stuck at sending boot image....

Hi I am stuck at flashing a boot image in Fastboot.. please help... I am S-on (htc dev unlocked) Right now am using the ViperVIVO 2.1.7... but am not being able to use the wifi... I read somewhere that this due to kernel issue, so I flashed Redux_0.3_ProjectX kernel in reovery (i.e installed the zip file in recovery) than booted into bootloader and ran fastboot usb..than extracted the boot image from the zip and put it in the android fastboot folder. After that flashed by typing fastboot flash boot boot.img but than it gets stuck there. it says sending image and stays there. Please help dont know what I am doing wrong. Thanks in advance

[q] [help] cannot flash

Hello to everyone, yesterday i tried to unlock bootloader, root m7 and flash a custom rom...everything seems to go well, except that i get a bootloop after installing the rom.
I tried to reflash the rom but still get bootloop, then for my mistake i erase all the file (and the rom too) inside my phone, so i only can flash rom with adb.
I can acces to recovery, but if i try to mount usb otg i can't copy there any rom .zip.
I'm trying with the ruu, but windows after the double click doesn't open anything.
If i try to flash something with fastboot i get this error( see attachment).
Now i'm asking you how can i resolve this?? Am i missing something??
Ask me if you nedd to know more details.

you can't flash a rom with fastboot / you flash roms with custom recovery
is your bootloader unlocked ? did you install TWRP / CWM custom recovery ?
did you erase cache and reboot the phone after installing the custom recovery ? what device do you have ? post the results from fastboot getvar all minus you serial no and IMEI

Excellent !!

Kinda bricked my phone

Hey guys,
I was using Limonchelo mod so far, and thought I'd swap to VIBE 3.5 (downloaded and tried installing it from here needrom, soryr if this is considered advertising, but I'm really not advertising them at all).
Ok, so anyhow, there was a recovery file, which I had to put into TWRP/Backup, and a boot.img file, which I had to flash.
Somehow, I flashed boot.img in Recovery partition as well, and now I can't boot TWRP, nor will the Android itself boot.
So practically, have 4 partitions, out of which, 2 of them (Boot & Recovery) have this boot.img flashed upon, which appearently, doesn't work! While trying to boot my phone, it remains STUCK at the lenovo - powered by android screen.
So, in short:
- Android doesn't boot (infinite loop at lenovo screen)
- Flashed the boot.img which doesn't boot over Recovery, so TWRP won't boot neither (same thing as above happens)
I could follow some guide and perhaps unbrick my phone with it, but I wouldn't like to **** things up further, and rather hear the opinion of a person that has more experience than me.
I would require some assistance with this matter, if anyone has done something similar or stupid like me before , I'd appreciate the help! xD
Thanks in advance!

Can you access fastboot mode?
When yes: Try to install the recovery: fastboot flash recovery recovery.IMG
And install Boot: fastboot flash Boot Boot.img

hey,
thanks for your reply, I wasn't able to access anything at all, however, I've fixed it using SP flash tool, dl-d some random firmware and just installed it, luckily it worked, so if anyone does sth as stupid as I did, this'll save ya. there's also a guide on YouTube for it.

.236 stock LP rom with Offical Twrp

Can I use the stock rom with the offical twrp?
If I can somebody could tell me how to boot the system because If I install twrp as a Kernel image It can t boot.

in order to use Official TWRP Recovery, you should unlock your Z1 to access the Recovery partition and after that you can do it.

Jeah I know that but i get a message back :tmp-mksh:fastboot: not found . And i tryed to install it with NUT s recovery's twrp but if I install it to FOTAkernel just the recovery boot. Maybe fastboot driver what I should have but I installed that long time ago. Sorry for my english.

in the other side of the coin you should reinstall fastboot and drivers.

Accidentally flashed TWRP in the boot partition

Hello,
So I did a mistake by flashing TWRP into the boot partition... Now whenever I reboot my phone it enters TWRP. How can I fix that or is it bricked? I can't find anywhere on the Internet stock boot images, only some modded kernels or something like that. Can anyone tell me how can I get stock boot.img and flash it so that I can use my phone again?
