However I got a problem
I use adb shell method to flash the new recovery image.
when I type mount -a it show four lines of fails. and then I type flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2.img. After that I press reboot. My phone is now keep stay in HERO BOOT SCREEN. nothing happen. please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For adb + fastboot method
I type adb shell reboot bootloader, it success.
but when I type fastboot boot recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2.img it said recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2.img cannot be load. Please help.
Can you boot your phone normal now at all or not?
If you can, use BTDAG's guide in my signature and install the custom recovery using the flashrec method.
I cannot it stuck at the "HERO" boot screen :'(
what I can do is that I can use the adb shell the browser the files inside the phone.

I can't go into the recovery mode.
I can only go into the fastboot mode.
Try this,... Go into fastboot.
Hit BACK to enter the fastboot bit.
I should now say FASTBOOT USB or something similar.
Then you need to cd into the right directory using CMD.
example,... I have to type...
cd c:\sdk\tools ................But it might be different on yours.
then type
fastboot devices
It should bring up your device serial number.
Then type
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot erase cache
Then reboot.

sorry its droid explorer and here is link to info about program and its pritty easy to use
http://de.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Features&referringTitle=Home
try the HEROIMG.zip method
Hello,
just another idea:
- download an original RUU.exe (preferably of an older version, rootable) and extract rom.zip (a lot of guides in the forums)
- rename to HEROIMG.ZIP and put in sdcard root
- restart hero with volume down pressed
- normally it should find the heroimg.zip and flash it and you are back to normal

Phone rebooted then then continues to be stuck in boot loop.
What I have tried:
Factory reset in bootloader
clear storage in bootloader
reinstall TWRP to get in recovery as if I choose recover in bootloader it just boot loops.
Tried to install the RUU but it can not connect during boot loops and errors out.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Try fastboot wipe recovery then fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, if recovery loops back to bootloader then it's corrupt. Make sure you flash the latest twrp

Those are fastboot commands, you use the terminal
fastboot wipe recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You should be able to boot into recovery afterwards
What terminal? I'm a bit lost here
Do you have adb tools or Android SDK?
C:\android-sdk-windows
Open cmd prompt by opening SDK folder and then hold shift and right click, it will say open cmd prompt or something similar I don't recall if adb is in separate folder but I don't think so. From there you can plug in the phone in fastboot and type fastboot devices, it will tell you if you are connected or not. Download twrp and place it in the same folder. Then you can use the commands I listed earlier

Now that I am in fasboot usb on the bootloader the RUU can connect to phone via USB.
If I just flashed that and started all over would that work and do I need to unroot and relock before doing the RUU?
Still not having any luck on terminal so far.
Sorry I was busy arguing with gf, it seems you aren't where you need to be if fastboot isn't recognized, I haven't had access to my own pc in quite a while so I'm having trouble remembering if there is another directory

got fastboot working but get this with your first command
That's because I haven't used wipe in fastboot in quite a while, I'm sure I'm just confused on wipe and erase but you shouldn't need it, the first command should be fastboot erase recovery but like I said you shouldn't really have to, it's just like formatting before flashing the recovery, just fastboot flash recovery openrecovery.img or what ever the name is for the twrp file

Thanks recovery just loops, could never get in.
Ok this is where I am at (see OP)
We tried flashing TWRP and original recovery via ADB
We tried running RUU
I'm still stuck in a boot loop....
I am having a similar problem stuck in bootloader. I relocked to go to the new firmware and now am stuck in the bootloader. I can access adb but can't access recovery. I am now relocked. Can I unlock again with a fastboot command?
If you unlocked manually, HTC sends the unlock code code just use fastboot to flash, if you used regawmod, just run it again. I don't know if regawmod will recognize the phone in boot loader though
i searched, and couldn't find anything. so sorry ahead of time if this has been answered. I flashed Paranoid Android on my HTC E4GLTE and can't get it to boot past the "Paranoid Android" screen. it's been stuck there for about 10 minutes. I've already wiped and tried reflashing. No luck.
Try wiping boot partition
fastboot erase boot

well thats odd lol I'm probably confusing the commands again, you dont need to wipe boot anyways, its just a way to make sure you start clean. open the paranoid rom and pull the boot.img file and put that in the adb folder
Did you make sure to type fastboot devices to make sure PC is connected to device via fastboot?
from my flying AOKP'd Evo LTE and xda premium
Hello,
I have no background in phone/computer knowledge, but I recently just started taking an interest in rooting and figuring out how to use my phone to its full potential. However, I might have screwed up on a couple things.
I was able to unlock my phone, but I accidentally wiped everything. There is no OS on my phone, and now my computer won't recognize my phone (it does not show up on My Computers). I researched and looked up many things on google, and tried a couple things, but to no prevail. I wish I could reset my phone to it's original setting, but I can't seem to do that. Now I wish I could download any OS.
I know this might be rather silly, but I know that the XDA community is very helpful. I have no idea how to dig my self out of this one, so please help. If anyone could walk me through on how to save the phone, I would be very grateful.
Thank you so much in advance.
Can you reboot your phone in bootloader mode? To do so phone in OFF mode by holding volume down and pressing power should bring you to this mode.
Then you will need to install SDK tool to have your phone control. Read HERE to do so.
Once done, install a custom Recovery and start at the -- Recovery installation -- section of this GUIDE
When the recovery will be installed correctly, you will have to sideload a ROM to your phone.
Download or locate the desired ROM on your computer.
Rename it with a short name.
Place it in the sub-folder : Platform-tools of your SDK folder.
Reboot in TWRP RECOVERY
Set the device into ADB sideload mode. In TWRP you do this by going to Advanced then ADB Sideload Slide to start.
From the command line, type : adb sideload your_rom_name.zip
It can take several minutes to complete the transfer.
If you need further help, I will be around to help.

Hi Lucky Thirteen,
Thank you so much for your fast response. The problem that I am running into is that I followed every step of installing SDK on to my computer. However, my device is not being recognized by the computer. No wizard, no USB recognition, it only tells me that the device has not been successfully installed.
Is there any way around this? Again, thank you so much.

This is normal if your phone has no OS installed. Follow this and go ahead in bootloader, it will work.
Download TWRP Recovery for the International version (ENRC2B) or for the AT&T/TELUS version (EVITARE_UL)
Once downloaded to simplify the operation rename your file like this : TWRPrecovery.img
Take this TWRPrecovery.img file and Copy/Paste it in the platform-tool of your SDK folder.
Reboot in bootloader mode. (Volume down & Power)
Make sure the FASTBOOT USB is highlighted.
At the prompt type >fastboot devices (Enter)
If you have your serial number as confirmation
At the prompt type >fastboot flash recovery TWRPrecovery.img (Enter)
If Success is achieved, type again at the prompt >fastboot erase cache (Enter)
You now have TWRP Recovery installed.
Unplug your USB cable and hit Power button one time.
Select Recovery with your Volume rocker.
Hit Power button one time.
Your phone should reboot in Recovery
Familiarize yourself with it.
Click on Advanced -> Sideload
And try transfer your desired ROM.
If this is successful, you will be able to select it in the Install section of the recovery.
Let see if this will work.

Hi Lucky Thirteen,
Again, thank you so much for all your help. I've been reading up on your guides and I've been learning so much. You truly are such a big help.
I was able to get Viper.img on to my phone through a adb sideload. However, when I reboot my phone, it still goes back to TWRP. I tried installing a rom through the Install option, but there is no .zip file that I can use when I go under /sdcard/Venom.
Is there any way I can get past TWRP?
Thank you so much
-Will
The ROM itself should be in a .zip format. You download the file you want and once finished you transfer it in your platform-tools folder without unzipping, it most remain a .zip file.
The image (.img) file (~5-10MB) is the boot.img to be flashed in fastboot mode for the ROM to boot.
So you have to sideload your intend ROM to your internal phone storage exemple : adb sideload The_Venom_Name_ROM.zip (Enter)
If I understood well, this is where you mixed up. Let me know the results.

I guess this is where I am confused. I am able to sideload Venom, and I install it, and it says that it's been installed successfully and that I reboot. I reboot, and TWRP comes up when I turn the phone back on.
From here, I tried to look for anything that would take me out of TWRP and onto the phone, but I cant seem to find it. So Venom has been successfully installed, but I don't know why TWRP keeps coming up.
Thank you
Try something, in recovery press and hold your power button your phone should reboot.

The file is rename sideload.zip on your SD card, so under install select Sideload then swipe and install your ROM. Don't forget to flash the boot.img in fastboot mode before.

Just to be clear. When you mean flash boot.img, you mean the TWRPrecovery that i have right?
So flash the TWRPrecovery.img and then install the sideload.zip?

I don't have FASTBOOT USB highlighted. I can't find one. So, I highlighted only the FASTBOOT. I then typed the fastboot devices. I got what seems to be the serial number. However, at the prompt, I tried typing fastboot flash recovery TWRPrecovery.img , but then it replies me "error: cannot load 'TWRPrecovery.img' : Invalid argument". I do have the downloaded recovery zip named TWRPrecovery.img in my platform-tools folder. What should I do now?
Thank you for bringing me here to this thread!
Hi Narakera,
When you are in bootloader mode, and you plug your USB cable the FASTBOOT USB doesn't highlight but your serial number is found. If you have a blue HBOOT + FASTBOOT highlighted then unplug your USB cable and press Power button once, this will bring you to a red FASTBOOT that will highlight FASTBOOT USB when a USB cable will be inserted. Could this be your issue?
See the screenshots for the differences.

Things kinda went sideways when I tried flashing a MOD without making a backup. I know what you're thinking, you can make fun of me all you want lol.
I'm only writing this post after having spent hours reading other posts. I'm kind of confused at this point, what is the easiest way to get my phone working again.
At the moment, I don't have a working ROM installed and I don't have access to my clockworkmod custom recovery. I only have Fastboot to work with. My understanding is that I have the following options:
Somehow Unlock my RELOCKED bootloader and flash a custom ROM
Find the original Rogers Stock ROM for my phone
I'm not sure how to go about doing the first option. And I don't know where I can find the Stock ROM for my phone.
If you have any info you can shed my way, I'd really appreciate it! And if there are similar posts already existing, I apologize for making a new one. I just didn't find anything that speaks to my exact problem out there.
UPDATE: I figured it out! Thank God!! I just had to "fastboot oem rebootRUU" then unlock bootloader, then install custom recover, then custom ROM.

Hi shanewilliamson,
1. Reboot your phone to fastboot mode
2. Connect to PC (assuming you have the fastboot kit on your PC)
3. On the CMD window, type "fastboot oem rebootRUU" and hit Enter.
4. Your phone will ask you if you want to unlock the bootloader. Choose YES
5. Reboot back into fastboot mode. Download your favorite Recovery from the internet, i.e. Clockworkmod or TWRP.
6. Flash Recovery into your phone (tons of tutorials out there on how do this)
7. Reboot your phone into Recovery.
8. Flash your favorite ROM
Hope this helps!

Did you do this step ?
Download Canadian 1.55 HBOOT recovery: http://goo.gl/2Kntxz
Make sure you're in the bootloader go into fastboot and make sure the downloaded image is in the same folder as your fastboot.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Go into bootloader and then choose Factory Reset - let that finish running <<< Important!
Phone will go out and start bootlooping. Now power off and go back to bootloader mode:
Go into fastboot
fastboot flash recovery <custom recovery>.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now you can go into custom recovery and you should be good to go now.

Seems hopeless
your only hope is someone can rebuild your partitions but with s-on it won't be easy
I'm in the same exact position as the original poster. However, when I'm in the bootloader and connected to my PC. typing
fastboot oem rebootRUU

puts the phone into a black screen with a silver HTC logo. Nothing happens afterwards. Any help is appreciated. My end goal is to get this phone back to stock AT&T rom (4.4.2) with Sense 6)
My phone is

Relocked
S-On

Hi everyone,
So after deciding whether to do it or not, i finally unlocked my BL yesterday. At least when i dial the secret number and look at BL info, it says "UNLOCK".
But I've been trying to flash cwm and rooting but it seems my device is not being recognised in cmd.
And i am having difficulties to install fastboot drivers again because my device is not showing up at all in device manager.
If you could kindly list some simple instructions on how to flash cwm and rooting on unlocked BL (Before you ask, yes i went through all the guides with no avail) or help me to install flashboot drivers properly, it would be appreciated.
Thank you and good day.
EDIT 1: I can boot in fastboot mode, But when i do adb devices, driver installation fails and thus the command for flashing cwm says "waiting for device" and never flashes.
EDIT 2: From what i have searched from previous posts , i need to wait 30mins, I will do that and report.... Hopefully it will work
If you can boot into fastboot then do fastboot devices, adb devices are commands in adb mode, not fastboot mode, instead of flashing through adb use fastboot flash , hope I help!

Sorry,
I actually did what u said.
But when i type the command (in cmd) : C:\Android>fastboot devices ---> The command is accepted and there is a driver installation which fails.
Even then i continued and typed : C:\Android>fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.3.1-p760.img
But with the second command, it simply says "waiting for device" in the command window, but nothing happens.
