Hi,
I got this phone today, and unlocked the bootloader using the htcdev website. I then flashed a rom, and wiped, and then flashed the boot.img using fastboot. It worked fine, but the cyanogenmod nightly wasn't very stable. I decided to flash a different rom, but I couldn't get anything else to work. The roms, now including the previous rom, don't boot past their boot animations and shut down and boot again. Any help would be much appreciated!
Also, when I power down from the bootloader it tries to start up again. I have to pull the battery.
Also, it's an AT&T version. ROM recommendations are needed, because I can't get anything to work. :'( Preferably de-sensitized. I've check the dev thread with all the ROMS and links.
Make sure you are doing full wipes for each rom and also flashing the boot image.

Yeah, I do that, using the factory reset in twrp and then install the rom, and then I flash the boot image using
fastboot flash boot boot.img
which flashes it no problem. I did actually get the cyanogenmod to work, which is interesting.
Update
I've gotten a ROM to work. It's http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1428726 A sensed ROM. Hmm...

You need to update to ICS first, otherwise it won't boot any JB or KitKat ROM.
Then S-off your device, it's really easy

Thanks! I'm running the "leaked" RUU which is supposed to update the firmware to ICS, right? Can you provide a link to S-off? I can't find anything. Well actually I can, but I can't understand it. :/

I guess here is a problem.
I flashed CWM recovery and new HoliCakes kernel and had to use HoliRaider ROM because Stock ROM couldn't boot up.
Is it possible to rolllback at this point?

Right after you installed the recovery you should do a back up if your planning on flashing roms and kernels so that way you have your original rom to fall back on. So to answer your question..if you didnt do a back up then no, you will have to load the rogers ruu. Sucks I did the same thing too before.

yeah, it sucks. too bad I had that backup and then deleted it.
you mentioned

does it mean I can still use a stock Rogers RUU ROM posted in this thread to revert the phone even though I lost my original ROM backup ?
Yeah you can flash the ruu...it will revert your phone back to stock then you can go through the steps of unlocking your boot loader, install the recovery and root your phone then flash a custom rom if you like.

I have 2 custom roms on my phone, cyanogen mod 7.1 stable and miui v.2.4.6.
Cyanogen has everything working except there is a wifi error, meaning i cant use wifi at all. Miui reboots by itself every few seconds, but i wanna be able to use it. What to do? These are the 2 best roms around, and none of them work!

We need some information about your IncS. What HBOOT version are you running? What method did you do to S-OFF and root your phone?
I'm gonna go ahead and guess. Bootloader unlocked, still on stock kernel.
Flash boot.img found in the rom zip using the fastboot flash boot boot.img command.
I think his device is S-ON with HTCdev unlock. The boot.img was not flashed.

My hboot version is 1.16, s-on with htc bootloader unlock. Then used clockwork mod recovery. I thought ya didnt need s-off?
And yes it still screwed up after doing boot.img (i tried it before on both roms)
Try to downgrade the hboot to 1.13 and get a revoluationary s-off.

Ok then the quote above you was spot on. You simply need to manually flash the boot.img when you an unlocked bootloader.

Correct. You do not need s-off to flash a custom rom. I strongly advise against attempting to get s-off if you cannot correctly flash a rom.
You mentioned "tried doing" a boot.img. You cannot use the one in your cwm backup folder as this is not the right one. It must be from the rom you wish to install. This must be done EVERY TIME you change rom on an unlocked bootloader. You should also be wiping cache, dalvik and data.
There is no ruu available for downgrade- i checked. Are you guys sure i need s-off to run miui?
Same problem. I flashed boot.img from the right rom. I did all of those procedures and it still constantly restarts. Also wifi no work. What wrong with miui?
My two cents.. and two questions

Did you remember to do a "wipe data/factory reset" and wipe the dalwik cache before installing the ROM? Did you see any error messages right after the installation?
Does CM7 restart as well, or is it only MIUI? I remember this happening to me with Virtuous Quattro, and the download file turned out to be faulty. Check that as well.
And no, you do not need s-off to run MIUI.
yes, i did all of that. I do not think the download file is faulty, but i dont know how to check. No, only miui is the rebooting, cyanogen mod only has wifi problem

I have had WiFi problems with MIUI, but not the one you describe here, and have never seen this with any of the ROMs I have had on my phone, specially Cyanogen. Have you tried flashing Virtuous Quattro or Kaijura's Ice Cream Sandwich?
And to check the downloads, use an md5 checker; there are many available on the internet for free.
Well miui keeps crashing, so i gave up on it.
I am using cyanogen stable 7.1 and everything is working fine except wifi. It wont detect any networks and sometimes it would say that the wifi or settings is not responding. Does anyone know how to fix the wifi?
With the GS2 I just got the file, put it on Odin and it was done so I have no clue about HTC phones. My phone is unlocked but has my networks firmware on it and I cannot update to newer firmware unless I get the stock firmware I'm guessing. So I'm just wondering where I can get that and how I do it?
Thanx.

Just about everything on htc phones is done through custom recovery.
If you have bootloader unlocked the you will need to flash a custom recovery I recommend twrp. After that just make a backup then download and flash a rom.
You can download and flash roms with just the phone no computer needed once you have the custom recovery

Custom ROMs are tweaked so more than likely it will be snappier and more battery efficient compared to stock ROMs. Also some custom ROMs have different themes, wallpaper or look than a stock ROM. The only ROM I know that doesn't have ANY visual changes is ARHD ROMs by mike1986.

You need to flash a custom recovery to be able to flash a custom ROM. Read the guide that was mentioned a couple of post above. The steps år basically like this.
Unlock the bootloader through the HTCdev website
Flash a custom recovery
Make a nandroid backup of your stock rom from recovery
Download and copy a custom ROM zip to the SD card
Flash the custom ROM from recovery
No, Samsung was not any easier to modify . I have rooted and modified several devices from both Samsung and HTC. You just have to learn the steps.

Hi,
I wanted to ask whether I will get the official OTA update if my bootloader says *TAMPERED*.
Also, what else could prevent me form getting the updates? I am running this ROM.

Yes you will get the official update but you need to have the stock recovery installed, so when the update comes out flash the stock recovery using fastboot, do the OTA update and then reflash TWRP or CWM and thats it.
You'll need to lock your bootloader aswell.

It's needs to be the stock ROM in stock form, without modification, otherwise the OTA will probably fail.
Retested this morning, update downloads, goes to install but stops part way through and shows the red triange with exclamation point ... That's on a stock, odexed ROM with stock recovery.
Several times I have run ruu on pc to go back to 4.1.2 using 1.28.401.6 ruu, then with S off and super cid and unlocked bootloader have successfully received and installed Ota updates up to an including 2.224.401.8
I am convinced that ota are no problem with unlocked bootloader.

You don't need that zip file. Just extract to boot.img from the ROM zip. The zip file is specifically for MultiROM support.

Flashing the 2.xx base ROM requires updating your firmware. You needed an older stock ROM so you could S-OFF and do update it, correct? I thought that was the original issue?
