im having major issues here with my device it all started with me trying to flash it to cynogenmod 10 which apparantly my device has the s-on so i was stuck in the cmod boot logo, luckily i backed up my device prior to that with the stock rom and everything so i restored successfully back to my stock rom. then i was reading along some forums to see what the problem was and i came accrosss this forum "http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-lte-all-things-root/606748-how-install-kernels-s-h-boot-1-15-a.html" which gave me a few options on how to flash kernels with the right one that will work with cynogen mod, i chose option 1 because it said it is recommended which the steps were to take the rom "boot.img" file and copy it over to the android sdk platform tools folder and open up a cmd and i flashed the rom "boot.img" which according to the forum that contains the kernel that belongs with that rom i did what it ask went to fastboot mode and typed in fastboot boot boot.img, which succeeded, when i rebooted the device it boots up acting like it is trying to open up recovery mode which is twrp recovery, after that it does nothing it blacks out and a little white bar flashes on top of the screen from time to time then it turns off and reboots and do same cyckle, i attempted to go back to twrp and restore my stock rom which said it succeeded but when i rebooted it did the same thing acted like it was tryning to boot up to recovery being inforemd with those red letter about developmental purposes only stuff, so i factory rested my device wiped dalvik cache and cache and even wiped the system rom and restored my back up with stock rom and nothing works still, please help i am stuck please!!
You probably need to pull the boot.img from a stock ROM and send it via fastboot since your trying to go back to your stock backup.
thanks, but now i got the cynogen mod 10 to boot up now for some reason the touch screen does not respond to the touch neither does the capacative touch buttons work either do you have any idea what it could be?
If you have the 3.16 OTA update then you're touchscreen firmware is incompatible. If this is the case your stuck with 3.16 based roms. Cm will not work for you.

well the 3.16 ota update is that the latest one?
Yes. If you have the 3.16 update the only way your going to get cm to work is to s-off and downgrade you're tp firmware.

I'll try..
First and foremost you need to go here http://themikmik.com/showthread.php?13192-RADIOS-RECOVERY-FLASHABLE-Jewel-Radio-Collection&p=220556&viewfull=1#post220556 and download the boot.img only for whatever version of the stock rom your backup is.
Put it in your sdk tools and open a command prompt and fastboot flash boot boot.img
Go to twrp recovery and WIPE cache, dalvik, factory reset, and system.
Restore your stock backup.
Reboot.
If you can get back to your stock rom, then you should read up on dirty racun or possibly facepalm to gain s-off if you want to run cm.

I have a Evo 3d, hboot 1.50 latest radios, prl, pri. I had OMJ's latest Rom, and used Flash Image Gui to flash a custom Kernel package; I flashed Tiamuts "Tiamat_E3D-v1.1.0-Sense" http://downloads.tiamat-dev.com/8x60/110/Tiamat_E3D-v1.1.0-Sense.zip, and rebooted, then my phone was locked up on just the HTC screen.
I can still access the Bootloader, and Fastboot, and Recovery. I tried rolling back to my nandroid backup, and also reflashing the stock kernel through recovery (as the Rom won't ully load), and now all I get is a black screen after the HTC logo, and the phone is responsive to power and capacitive buttons, but no display at all.
Tried full wipe, and reflash of OMJ, even CleanRom.... Just black screen after HTC logo.... Any Ideas ? With Bootloader, Fastboot, and Recovery, you'd think I could unbrick, but no luck.
I'm sorry... I'm not a complete noob, I've been on the scene since early TP2s, and always rooted and custom rom’ed my Evo 4g.... Please help guys. Thanks in advance.

Since you're on the HTC unlock method, in order for the custom recovery to properly work, i.e. flash all partitions including the kernel/boot partition, you have to access the custom recovery differently than the traditional method.
The proper command and method to access the custom recovery in order for the HTC unlock method to grant it write access to the kernel/boot partition is through fastboot. The full command is: fastboot boot c:\cwm-recovery.img . Once you've temporarily fastboot booted the custom recovery, you can then properly flash a ROM or restore a nandroid as both will be allowed write access to the kernel/boot partition.
Appreciate your support in using my application! Hope that helps!
Deleted my own question. I think I found a thread where it will be more appropriate.
Like joeykrim stated, you must access the recovery from fastboot to be able to flash kernels, nandroids and what not from recovery if you used HTC's method to unlock you phone. You are not bricked. It is fully fixable.
I have Clockwork Recovery flashed, always have (the only version compatible with Hboot 1.50, v4.0.1.4). I still have full access to the Bootloader, Customer Recovery, and Fastboot. But despite reflashing a fresh Rom (2 in fact), full wipes, reflashing boot.img with stock kernel; all the phone will do is boot past the HTC screen, vibrate, and the screen goes black. Capacitive buttons are responsive, and so is the power button, just no display. ...... Idk what else to Flash to get this phone booting again, any ideas ?
I had same problem I have 1 file name PG86IMG.zip I don't remember from where I downloaded 1st Iplaced this on SD root folder and turn on phone with volume down and power button and it care of everything

You arent bricked if you can still get into fastboot, recovery, etc. I would recommend using this app called Flash Image GUI on the market, it's only $0.99 and I am (as we speak) flashing ziggy's dual core kernel. Oh wait my phone rebooted now. Its fast as all get out and my WiFi works (yay). But like I said this method is the EASIEST way to flash kernels!

I think the file you're referring to is the RUU (ROM Update Utility) file which can be placed in the root of the sdcard as PG86IMG.zip and flashed to competely reload all stock software (radios, system, kernel, etc) on the device.
These files are available at http://goo-inside.me/shooter/ruu.

Seems as if there is some issue with the display. If you confirm you have adb access to the device, I would think the issue lies in the android /system. If you don't have adb access, I would think the issue lies in the kernel/ramdisk.
Either way, if you want to eliminate both issues, reflash my Stock ROM - [ROM] joeykrim-original-1.2.0 Odex *Stock Rooted 2.08.651.2*, which will reload the stock kernel and the stock system with only adding in root access. I run this ROM as my daily ROM and it works great for keeping the phone stock but allowing root access.
Make sure to access the custom recovery through, fastboot boot c:\android\cwm-recovery.img . If you load the custom recovery through adb reboot recovery, or bootloader and selecting recovery from the menu, the HTC unlock method will not grant recovery write access to the kernel/boot partition.
Worse case, my stock ROM with stock Kernel doesn't resolve the display issue, you should flash the stock RUU files at http://goo-inside.me/shooter/ruu . If that doesn't resolve the issue, you'll prob need to exchange/return the device as it would seem to be a hardware issue.
Hope that helps! Good luck!
I followed this guide here to root my EVO 3D:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239821
Then my friend who already had a rooted Galaxy S told me to get ROM Manager and it installed Clockwork Recovery. I didn't know you only needed one recovery since I'm noob at this and when I tried to install a Custom ROM with Clockwork, it just boots and I get the Sprint logo and nothing happens. I try to boot into TWRP and nothing also happens. I think having two recoverys is going a major issue with my phone and I'm unable to install any roms. Is there anyway to go back to just having the TWRP Recovery and get rid of the ClockWork/ROM Manager? Or will I have to reset everything and root again?
Huh... Sounds like the hboot 1.5 is giving you issues... Use image GUI app for 1.5 to flash right from normal android mode( everyday user mode) look the thread in themes and apps to get it installed. Let me know how it goes here. No link as I'm using the tapa app

You can't have 2 recoveries installed at the same time...if you initially had TWRP, when you flashed clockwork it would've over-written TWRP. You don't need to reset anything or re-root to get back to TWRP. You should just be able to flash TWRP again. Use the method from the thread you initially followed. Just the part about flashing TWRP is all you need to do. I've never tried it, but you could also try flashing it with the app flash gui image, or something to that nature. Joeykrim developed it and I've heard it works nice, here's where to find info about it, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192527. If your phone won't boot, the flash gui image app prob wouldn't be the best way. I would just boot your phone to fastboot, re-flash TWRP recovery, then flash a rom and try rebooting.
I don't have hboot 1.5, so I'm not up to date on the 'special' ways you need to flash, but I know that you need to boot into recovery from fastboot in order to flash a kernel, and I'm not sure if there's other steps you need to to take in the flashing process, so research that and make sure you're doing it correctly. If you don't boot to recovery from fastboot, the kernel won't flash and you'll be stuck in boot loops or something like that. Good luck.
Thank you guys! The flash image gui thing made the fix very seamless. I just flashed TWRP again and now it's showing up. Flashing synergy nitely now. Woot!
I installed TWRP on my phone, and went into Bootloader an hit RECOVERY so I can get to the program (the first time I did this it brought me to the TMRWP program). THIS time, it completely wiped my friggin' phone... after I sat there like 4 hours re-setting up everything PERFECTLY how I wanted it.
What's weird is it kept ALL my apps that I converted to SYSTEM APPS, but all my user stuff is gone.
Lesson learned... Don't click recovery from Bootloader.
That has yet to happen to me with any recovery and 3 devices currently with twrp. Might be a step missed with the install or maybe you left a bootloader update zip and ran it when you rebooted? Or it can be a bug as going to recovery from bootloader via a cold start is how to get there traditionally. I would email teamwin and try to sort it out or redo the recovery install, making sure to check the md5 of the file after you download it.

Your supposed to click recovery at bootloader. Thats where you do backup, restore and flash new roms.
HTC Sensation z710e
ICS 4.0.3
Sense version 4.0
Software Sense-o-maniac v1.3
Kernel. 3.0.30 Bricked
Radio 11.68.3504
That's what I thought too. If I'm not mistaking, I flashed the new firmware after I did the TWRP, so maybe that screwed it up somehow. I take it TWRP must be the LAST image you flash? Only flashes I remember doing were:
Customize bootloader screen
TWRP.
firmware update
Do I need to re-flash the new firmware before re-flashing TWRP, or is the firmware going to remain no matter what I do from this point on?
Just adb flash recovery. Put the recovery image in your platform tools folder. Adb reboot bootloader. when you are rebooted adb flash recovery recovery.img.
Or use one of the many tools made to do that on our forums

Well I went ahead and used the GOO Manager to flash TWRP again, and this time it worked fine. I'm going to re-setup my phone again then before I customize it back like I had it, going to try to get to recovery and see if it works.
With it now being installed, does that mean I can't flash anything directly from SD Card or modify the bootloader anymore without it causing problems?
What I mean, moreso, is... if I ever put factory reset. will it reload the factory rom + keep the newest firmware I installed (etc.) or do I nee to back up the phone with TWRP and recover from that when I want to load it back?
Factory reset just puts things back to the way they were without the stuff in the data partition or any user apps or settings. This means that say you flash a custom rom, it will reset to as if that custom rom was freshly installed since the custom rom has replaced the factory rom in the /system/ parition and anything else related to it.
With that said it is usually a good practice after rooting a fresh device to do the nandroid and then transfer it to a computer before you do anything else. Note that while you probably won't be switching recoveries a lot, that nandroid backups generally work only with the recovery that generated them so don't get them mixed up.
I have Flashed LeeDroids newest Rom to my GSM from Mwakious,Using Rom Manager i created a full backup before the Flash Process
The Installer had said that flashing was successful,I let the Phone reboot
It Took about 20 to 25 minutes,thats when i knew something was wrong,Understanding there is a problem i took out the battery wanting to to wipe and use the backup i created,(didnt install the animations or boot sound),i loaded up the Bootloader and went into Clockwork,when i choose something i get stuck on the Rom manager logo ???.
Whats the safest way for me to be able to wipe and reinstall the ROM
*update* i flashed the boot.img out LeeDroid,now my phone contentiously plays the htc boot animation*
First, don't use Rom Manager, just backup, wipe, and flash in clockwork.
Second, did you flash the correct radios/firmware/kernel for that rom?
Third, did you fully wipe? Even if you selected it in Rom Manager, it likely didnt work, hence see number 1.

I had the same problem with LeeDriod, stuck on HTC logo. try to RUU with the correct file. you will be stocked. but before RUUing you have to relock your bootloader by typing "fastboot oem lock" then RUU
I had this problem for a week and I thought my phone is dead and I had to trash it but after RUUing I am back to stock lolz
I had used 4ext recovery thinking i would be able to wipe and install another Rom,i wiped everything but since, everytime i try to install a rom i get stuck at the htc logo in boot,i will have to painfully relock it and RUU,but which file ?

Depends on your location and carrier. Also, I think getting s-off will solve your bootloop problems.

hello friends wanted to know if I could help with a rom I put my htc Rezound which was its official rom 4.0.3 with locked bootloader unlock with which HTCDev because my wifi and bluetooth problems and change the boot.img and the cell was bricked me in htc screen and there is no step more, then install android systen recovery and install the rom you liquidsmooth and kenel funky but the Rezound stays in the animation of the rom and there does not pass I wonder if someone could help me I'm s-on bootloader unlock if any rom that works well with me these try installing an exe ruu but I think the 115 Error error loading the image. Thanks I hope to fix my htc.
What recovery did you use? Did you ever flash the boot.img after flashing the ROM? Also, you can't run a RUU without really being S-OFF. If you want some good ROMs, try out Chucktr's CM 11, bunchies Liquid smooth 3.2, or some other newer ROMs. Any should do. But after flashing them in recovery. You have to flash the boot.img manually in fastboot. Or else you will be stuck on boot logo forever. If you want to get back to stock, we can do that after you get booted.
