1.st off thanks for the extremely helpful guides and taking the time to root this device because the copious amount of OE bloatware is horrible.
2.nd I rooted my 510 and now i have no "home" screen. I can view apps and settings and if i recieve a text i can view it by clicking the notification but if i hit home it goes straight to the google search menu?
I tried a factory reset and nothing.
Thanks in advance.

Are you running a stock rom or something else? It sounds like Sense isn't installed.
well i was on the stock ROM. but now i think i made the problem worse by trying to fix it. now it wont boot passed the HTC screen. SO i guess i need to try to load a factory boot image?

Yeah, if you've got TWRP installed I would flash a stock rom. CM11 is also usable minus the cameras.

How are you getting the zip over to the phone? Use adb push or an external sd card. You might need to wipe (factory reset) in TWRP before you try and install.

Sounds like a problem with boot. Do a factory reset in TWRP, flash http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57174863&postcount=1 and then afterwards flash that ROM.
Download the zip in this post and adb push that file to your TWRP/BACKUPS/ folder and restore like that. I forgot the other ROM I had you flash required a previous backup to have been made.

Regarding http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-510/development/virgin-sprint-htc-desire-510-stock-t2961521 , are you going about it this way?
There's not really a rom that you can flash without already having a backup. If all else fails you can fastboot oem lock and then run the Sprint 510 RUU from http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads
dipspit that last link did it! Thank you so much for your help. Ive learned my lesson about not making backups haha.

If dialer is crashing on a stock unrooted phone you'll have to figure out what you installed that screwed it up. Or do as factory reset (backup first you'll loose everything)

You can either get the stock dialer and push it to system using a Custom recovery or install a Custom Rom or restore from backup
I can no longer write any custom roms to my N6. Started with PURE 3.5 but now effects any rom i try to flash. I have brought my N6 back to factory state multiple times even relocking it. Only thing I can do is Fastboot flash N6 image from google manually piece by piece. I do have working 5.01 and phone works. Roms either hang or have errors. or just write the boot.img file. TWRP works other wise i can backup and restore, I am using 2.8.3.1. I have searched all over for a fix....
There used to be some weird mounting stuff that would make roms not boot. Thought that was worked out in pure shamu 3.1 ish.
Where do the roms hang? Did you ever fix permissions using twrp? Any kind of log you can pull?

I had no problem updating Pure for over a month from like 2.0 to 3.4.
they all hang when writing to system as far as i can tell. happens regardless of Pure....from a fresh clean image of 5.0 or 5.01 i can not flash any roms. driving me nutzo....i can no longer flash pure 3.4 either but i can restore the phone from a nandroid backup i had on my pc and run Pure 3.4 just fine.
Did you wipe everything except internal storage first? I had this issue earlier until I realized that I forgot to do that when coming from the stock ROM.

It doesn't make sense considering you also flashed back to stock. Have you also tried to flash a ROM from your PC rather than from your phone? There has to be some reasonable explanation for why it's not working.

how do you do that? the custom roms dont have system.img file like N6 image. The Pure 3.92 is in .dat format, another rom is folders. I also get checksum errors when extracting.
I also noticed in the last 24 hours there are 2 other threads with people have almost the same issues flashing roms. I think it has something to do with TWRP but no matter becuase no version works for me.

If you restore your stock recovery on your phone you could try this.
Make sure TWRP is not installed on your phone and that the stock recovery is installed and working:
Have TWRP in your platform tools folder named however you want
Then use "fastboot boot recovery 'whatever you named TWRP' "
This will boot TWRP without installed it. Then try to flash the ROM using TWRP. You can also use the"adb push" to sideload the ROM onto your phone so you can find it via TWRP.
nope did not work.....roms just hang or flash new boot.img only.
i even tried erasing recovery partion and reflashing stock than twrp 2.8.3.1......that did not work either....something is stopping TWRP from writing to system.
thanks for your help

I assume you are also out of the return window. Well if you are unlucky or lucky (depending on how you view it) you could have an issue eventually. They will RMA for burn in, camera issues etc... The camera issue was common in the earlier production models that I had. There should be another method, I would look into it if you have time.
so here is what happened, i was rooted with an unlocked boot loader running chroma rom. i then tried to unroot my device to return completely back to stock. After the process was done, i formatted and wiped everything then did a reboot. when android started up chroma rom was still on there and i can't access developer settings to unlock my boot loader to flash stock image. so now i am stuck with a locked boot loader and a bootloop device. i have tried adb sideload and got back 2 errors that the footer is wrong and the signature. i don't know what to do now. so Please Help! thank you in advance.
another thing i should add, i only have access to stock recovery

Here is the option. Direct from Wug's FAQ. "If you device is bootlooping or can’t boot up, use “Flash Stock + Unroot” with the “Soft-Bricked/Bootloop” option and follow the onscreen instructions for manually booting your device into bootloader mode and restoring your device."
Can't use flash stock option without an unlocked bootloader.

Why is this happening so often. Sorry but getting late to the party, I just bought my N6 from Best Buy and have been trying to get caught up on all the reading before it gets here. Is it user error or something else?
BTW, from what I see he can probably break it down and sell the parts on ebay then get close to a new one for $350.

We don't know but this sucker likes to bootloop. Never relock the device till after it boots and running. Concerning relocking non-stock have seen it bork TWRP and kernel.

because many people dont read and educate themselves beforehand.
I don't understand why people are re-locking their boot loader. Unless you are returning the device, what is the purpose of re-locking it? I don't get, in this particular thread, why or how the boot loader got locked?

And that is a key question.
I was trying to get ready to turn in my nexus 6 and so I flashed a stock rom (apparently minus the recovery) and relocked my device. I now have twrp but stock 5.1 installed. twrp boots okay but internal storage is 0mb and it appears unable to format partitions. any ideas on a resolution? very comfortable with fastboot (bootloader loads normally) but can't seem to get anything working otherwise.
Hello guys I'm trying to upgrade my TWRP as it's currently on v2.6.3.3. I have accidentally wiped the OS on my HTC M7 Unlocked UK model. I have been using ADB to push the files to the SD Card. I've already pushed the image file into the phone but I'm not sure how to install it like the zip files.
I've already tried installing ROM but I've had no luck stays stuck on HTC logo, I've even tried Nandroid 6.01 but the home screen wouldn't respond to touch.
My HTC has S-ON as I was unable to turn it off.
What are my options?

twrp-3.2.1-0-s2, can't remember if i had the same one or one version older than the current one; when i tried it. Should i try it again? But the question is will it install the origibnal boot loader and modem? because i was playing with those in the past and flashed the wrong ones i think, and it will be great if i can go back to the original ones.

it certainty restores boot. not sure about modem, I never touched it. you have nothing to loose flashing it. it supposed to be bone stock. just delete two lines in the script and re-save zip. you have to do wipe, wipe data, then mount, copy zip, flash, reboot. in that order, I wasted hours today finding out that order is required. otherwise, it won't load.

then you have a more complicated problem than mine. I had stock fastboot, and twrp.

Unbelievable! It actually worked after the 2nd attempt. Even got the 21s update. Thanks :good:
The original question is still unanswered about which one is the correct firmware for the US model amng the firmware provided by codeworks, hopefully someone knows that and will share in interest of others that might have the same problem.
Thanks again @leo221 for providing a clear and easy solution.
