Stuck after attempted ROM install.

When I tried updating my Incredible S to JellyBean from an ICS ROM, I forgot to S-OFF my phone. For some reason it reverted to S-ON when I did a Factory Reset so when I attemped the ROM installation it would not boot the phone.
I tried following these instructions but the file is apparently missing?

well because you unlocked your bootloader then i assume you have adb and fastboot setup. copy the boot.img from your rom's zip file to your adb and fastboot location. lets pretend its in your c drive in a folder called android.
next you wanna boot into hboot and go down to fastboot. go into it and when you plug in your usb cable it will go from fastboot to fastboot usb mode.
open command prompt and navigate to the directory. eg. cd c:\android
then type fastboot flash boot boot.img
wait for it to finish then reboot phone. if all goes good it should boot into the rom. you will have to do this with every rom you install while your s on

thats weird :S can you try your sim in another phone? try blowing the contacts

I am wondering if S-OFFing the phone would help? The SIM card works in my Samsung F480i and worked previously with this HTC Incredible S

Would adding my G-Mail account help? Also, how can I add my g-mail account? I have tried but it comes up with a connection error? I can add my hotmail account though...

You can boot in recovery?
If yes, use the sideload or push a rom into the sd

Cannot load 'Access' bootloader

I am new to rooting and unlocking my new HTC One. I have had great pleasure in doing the same to my galaxy nexus in the past but this one has got me beat.
I have unlocked the bootloader via the HTC site. I have the latest drivers installed and showing OK in the device manager.
I am trying to load a TWRP on my phone without any succes. I can see it listed in the HTC tool kit I have. Its listed as 'SH****** fastboot device. I click install recovery but nothing happens.
I have tried it through the CMD prompt also but get the error 'cannot load'
Can someone please help as I'm desperate to root and install a custom Rom on my phone.
Thanks in advance.

download the correct twrp for your device then put it on your fastboot folder and flash via cmd prompt (fastboot flash recovery [twrp file name].img)

Are you sure you have the right recovery .img file? What's the file size of the recovery? Should be around 8MB.

It should be its 8.43MB in size.

you're forgetting ".img" in the file name, "DIR" on your computer and then use the full file name of the recovery, that's all
EDIT: I think it's called "openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7.img" (unless you saved it under a different name)
so fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7.img
EDIT 2: just saw you folder
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.6.3.0.img

Thanks for that,I've finally been able to install a recovery and also install my first ROM as well.
Thanks a lot

[HELP] Phone probaly bricked!?

Hello all,
To make a long story short: my phone is stuck his bootloader after it wiped my internal storage (i dont know what exactly happened but it happened).
The last 5 hours straight i tried to fix it throught adb sideload but ended up that i only have acces to my bootloader now.. it doesnt enter the recovery annymore, i tried to flash other recoverys (twrp and cwm) but its stuck on bootloader now.
Im despirate now, tried to solve it myself without disturbing others with it but im kinda lost now. My phone is s-on and i am hoping that somebody can help this despirate man out!
EDIT: I just noticed that my bootloader says that my phone is relocked now?
EDIT2: This is the last thing i tried (see attachment), i dont think it worked

Your phone is relocked?
Ok, you've to unlock this, flash a recovery do an erase cache and after sideload/push a rom into your sd and flash this...

s-off using fastboot -> not as far as i know; reflash a compatible rom for rumrunner or revone (depending on your firmware), and get s-of.
