You should have read and studied the procedure to unlock the boot loader and flash a custom ROM a bit more carefully!
The step you are missing is that you will need to manually flash the ROM's boot.img in FASTBOOT USB mode.

Boot it into the boot loader by holding the Volume Down key and press the Power button.
Then you can enter FASTBOOT USB mode and flash the boot.img

Yes, so you should be able to select FASTBOOT instead of RECOVERY to flash the boot.img.

I suggest to go back and read the procedure that you used to learn about unlocking via HTCDEV.com and flashing a custom recovery. That thread should have everything you need to know.
You can flash a ROM in your current state, but there is a documented step that you missed about flashing the boot.img file.
Phones Dead or what ?
yeaturday night i was able to access fastboot menu(bios) of android, i left my phone in night and now it doesnt turn on so i did some research as though battery may have got discharged( which was the case ) as was not gettin amber light on.

you can install custom roms on your device...after installing the ROM, do not let the device to boot to the boot animation or whatever you call it..
Instead, boot to the bootloader...enter the fastboot menu (fastboot usb if your phone is already connected to your computer)...open a command prompt/terminal and type fastboot devices. If your device is recognized, the output would be your device's serial number...
Copy the boot.img file from the ROM's .zip file to some folder. open a cmd window in that folder/ navigate to that folder in cmd (if already opened)
type fastboot flash boot boot.img
if the boot.img is successfully flashed, you can reboot your device and you should be able to boot properly.
If you are s-on and unlocked via htcdev method, follow the above steps every time you flash a new rom.
If you are s-off, the above method is not needed. You can flash roms and use them without any hassle...
Hope this helps...

Looks like the battery has discharged completely. Allow the phone to charge for sometime and then try to turn on the device

my phone was working completly fine until i flashed boot image, i think this is what i have done incorrectly.
i have rom zip file on phones sd card and unpacked files of same rom my pc in a folder,
now what i understand is to first unpack and install rom from recovery and then flash from cmd ?

No, there is no need to unzip the zip file in your PC...only the boot.img file is required.
First install the ROM from the custom recovery and then boot into the bootloader by pressing the vol down button while the phone restarts. Then, flash the boot.img and you should be able to boot...

Charge it for an hour or so, then remove the battery, reinsert after 10-15 min and try to turn on the device again...sometimes soft reset works
do i have to relock bootloader before flashing rom and installing it

What are you seeing when attempting to flash recovery?
So when you reboot your phone you see an unlocked lock under the colourful "X"? If you do, you have indeed unlocked your bootloader and have a proper fastboot setup.
Now you need to boot back into the bootloader [Trackball + Power]. Place the AmonRa recovery image into the "tools" folder of your sdk and rename it simply to "recovery.img". Then run the command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
On the top right of your phone screen you will see a progress bar. Once it is complete, boot into the new recovery by fully powering down, thenholding [Volume Down + Power ], selecting "Recovery" from the list and tapping the power button to confirm selection.
Double post.
We are all jumping to conclusions here...let's start from the beginning.
OP - have you turned your phone on?
(I crack myself up)
Hahaha what the hell?
ok so i renamed the AmonRa recovery image to recovery.img and put it in the tools folder on my desktop and booted the phone in bootloader then tryed to run the command on the computer and I cant get it to work what am i suppost to type
I would try putting the recovery.img SDK\ dir, then using fastboot
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
easiest way

The tools folder is where fastboot lives so unless he puts the sdk\tools path in his global path, he will have to type tools\fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
OP - if you type fastboot devices, do you get an item list that displays your device?

go back to recovery, wipe everything (except your sd card). Flash your rom and if needed, the g-apps package (cyanogen rom additional step). Tell it to reboot and wait for it to boot up.
Sounds like you didn't wipe and got it stuck in a bootloop.
All is well thanks a lot guys
It's not hard to root the Nexus at all. I had adb and fastboot all set up for my Dream. It only took me maybe 2 minutes from when I unboxed my Nexus to having unlocked the bootloader. But he got it working now so it's good.
ok been dealing with this for the past hour no results.. i recently flashed the twrp recovery just to check it out and wanted to flash a rom on it went to do so and now that i reboot phone it stays on the htc start up screen turns off than back on.. only thing working on it is the hboot, no recovery. although occasionally ill see the twrp start up screen than it turns off and goes white htc... any help is appreciated.. thinking i may have to relock and find the stock at&t ruu??:crying:

Fastboot erase cache command will fix this problem. Boot to your bootloader select fastboot usb and run that command.

I assume you are using windows...? Do you have adb installed/working? If the answer to both of these is yes. Reboot your phone to the bootloader (hboot) select fastboot usb in hboot. Open a cmd Window cd to the dir where adb is located. Then run the command in the above post.

Last time this happened there was a script that was running that corrupted the cache partition. That is why erasing cache fixes it.

Okay where is your adb file? Ex mine is in a C:/Android. By default if you installed the android SDK the adb files would be in the SDK folders. Any way if you were fast boot flashing a recovery your going to do the same thing just use fastboot erase cache as the command instead of the recovery command. If none of this makes since PM me.

Hey guys, I need some major help!
I was trying to update my phone earlier today, when I flashed Android Revolution HD 40.3 something very bad happened!
For some reason the ROM did not install properly, and I can't get back into recovery. I was using TWRP and the loading screen comes up for it, but it never fully launches.
I can get into the bootloader, and I tried using the Toolkit under fastboot. It seems like my phone is detected, but when I try and flash anything it doesnt work. Ive flashed both TWRP and clockword. They seem to flash because it will show the loading screen of either one, but it never actually enters the recovery. What should I do?
My phone is S-ON, I am not sure if that is what caused the problem/is what is keeping this an issue.
Thanks for your help

Does the phone just reboot before it enters recovery? I would try manually flashing a custom recovery image. Here is a link to the exact image I used.

It's very straightforward once you have fast boot setup. Don't worry I've been in your situation myself!

My phone was S-ON at the time, I recently gained S-OFF. You should still be able to flash a new recovery with S-ON. S-OFF is usually only needed for flashing new radios or firmwares.

How did you flash the recovery? Like I've said, I tried flashing a new recovery via the Toolkit. They do seem to flash, but I cant access the recovery. I'm not sure if my bootloader was relocked or what, but it doesn't go past the intro screen for TWRP or Clockwork

It could be possible that the toolkit is installing an incorrect version maybe? Switch off your phone. Once off hold vol - and power the phone on. This should load up HBOOT and tell you the boot loader status.
This is how I flashed recovery. I entered fastboot and used the commands from that link to flash a new recovery image. Have you used fastboot commands before?

If you have fastboot setup and working, just boot the phone into fastboot mode and use the commands in that link I gave you.
From fastboot. Use command "fastboot erase cache"
From fastboot. Use command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
Then simply highlight "recovery", tap the power button and the phone should load up clockwordmod recovery.

I hit reset... wiped phone... all files GONE... Now what do i do. I cant mount to put recovery on.... I cant do anyting with this phoen right now... anyone had this happen... If so what steps to remedy?
Sounds like you need to try and fastboot the original google files, nuke and repave....
flash the stock img then start again
Flashing stock as we speak... was hoping another optino.... but after years of doing this I kinda know better... live and learn

No, if you can boot to TWRP, as @rootSU said, you can move a ROM to internal and get up and running. Then you can go about unlocking.

Power off the device. Once completely shut down, hold power and volume down until bootloader screen appears. Then use the volume keys to select recovery. Then push power to select.
from your original post, it says your not running twrp anymore. have you tried just letting the phone try to boot up? have you tried reflashing twrp to your phone via fastboot. id try, and if its successful, id push a rom to my phone then. if not, try flashing a factory img.

Or, if you are still in fastboot, issue this command > fastboot reboot recovery

as i said before, when twrp has been deleted, the Recovery mode is useless : when i hit it, it instantly return to bootloader screen

Then I'm afraid you may be stuck. A RMA may be in your future if no one else can offer a solution.

Hi guys,
I am feeling quite panicked right now since I flash the wrong firmware (lower version) which leads me to failed RUU "Too many links" and then when i reboot to bootloader it constantly boot into four triangles and unable to fastboot oem rebootRUU at all to reflash and my bootloader are in a messed.
I have the same exact problem as this guy http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2459221 but i don't really understand to solve the problem as i'm not an expertise in this type of problem.
I can still access my phone by manually using "Fastboot oem boot" but other than that i can't power up my phone or boot into bootloader as i have four triangles in each edge of my phone and orange-colored "RUU". I cant flash any rom or firmware or going into my TWRP.
My Phone is S-OFF and Unlocked bootloader.
Here's My partition 19 if needed to solve this issue.
Help me please !

First before sending you the modified misc partition, can you please tell us what you have flashed exactly (provide link) and more info about your devices (fastboot getvar all) or at least your CID, MID, Version number you was on before flashing?
I see in your misc partition that the RUU flag is indeed active.
---------- Post added at 04:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:24 PM ----------
however here it is: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/77459918/p19noRUUflag.img
Code:
fastboot oem boot
then copy the file to the root of your sdcard or you can push it using
Code:
adb push p19noRUUflag.img /sdcard
then to restore it to your misc partition
Code:
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/p19noRUUflag.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19
exit
adb reboot-bootloader
and then flash your RUU.zip and make sure to flash it correctly.
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip name_of_ruu.zip
fastboot flash zip name_of_ruu.zip
fastboot reboot
Don't know what ruu you need, if you need help choosing one then post your "fasboot getvar all".
And be very very careful with the "dd" command. If you make a typo, you can brick your phone foor good (writing to the wrong parititon)
IT WORKED !! My Bootloader went back to normal !!! You are a savior and making my day better
Thanks !! Your explanations are really clear and very easy to understand that i able to follow all the steps correctly with ease : )
Well I was using ARHD 71.1 and planning to dirty flash to ARHD 90.0 if possible. Then I was using 5.x.401.x firmware that was used in ARHD 71.1. I have seen that the new ARHD 90.0 are using the latest 7.15.401.1 so i flash to that firmware directly before I plan to install the ROM. And I forgot to place the ROM to the SDCard which then requries me to boot to the O.S in order to access the storage. Then suddenly when i restart my phone, My Phone soft bricked where the phone is stuck at black screen constantly while usually the phone should properly goes to the "HTC One" Phrase and then goes to the O.S but in my case, It first boot into the htc green logo and after a while the screen goes black screen.
I thought the firmware is incompatible with my arhd 71.1 so i downgrade it again 5.x.401.x and then while updating the RUU, I receive "Failed : Too many Links" which quite made my worried so I restart the phone to try if downgrading to the older firmware would fix the issue. But then, the "Four Triangle" issue rise.
I am grateful that you have solve my issue regarding this matter and I cannot be more happier than this that everything went back to normal. Thank You So Much! :good: You are the best !
