I was hoping someone might be able to offer some suggestions here. I have a refurbed Hboot 1.5, unlocked using HTC's tool so it's S-On. I can install ROMs via the recovery and I use the FLASH GUI app to install kernel files. The problem I keep encountering is almost every ROM/KERNEL kills my WIFI. It just reads "error" and I can't resolve it. I have to then flash the one kernel I can keep getting to run, which is: 2.6.35.13-g84f8edd. (SMP PREEMPT Fri Aug 5) from a TITAN ROM.
Yesterday I relocked the phone, install the RUU - updated to 2.17 - but as soon as I installed another rom, it killed the WIMAX again (FRESH) - so I had to use the same 2.6.35.13 kernel.
Is this common, is there a working list of kernels that will work ith S-0n Hboot1.5?
I don't have any trouble with anthrax kernels. I've also used quite a few of ziggy's kernels and not had any trouble.

I have a new 3D with HBoot 1.5. So far; It's been my experience that all AOSP kernels have no WiFi on this phone. This means that if I want CyanogenMod-7 I'll have to do without WiFi.
None of the Sense kernels/ROMs have this problem.
Try using adb rather than gui.
I've been on 1.5 hboot since August and have flashed many roms and kernels. Never had a problem with wifi. Also, the make sure you use kernels that match the rom type... Aosp, sense, update version, ics, etc... Doesn't matter what hboot you are if they don't match stuff won't work.

You have to take the boot.img outta the rom place that in the platform tools folder of ADB.
Then place the rom on your SD card.
1. make sure debug is on
2. adb reboot recovery
3. wipe everything
4.adb reboot bootloader
5. fastboot flash boot boot.img
6.go to recovery and flash the rom
7. Wifi will work no issues rom runs like a champ
If you are using adb and going through fastboot, there is no need to extract the the boot image. Just fastboot into recovery and flash the rom. The kernel built into the rom will be installed too.
with faast boot you can install roms and mods just like 1.4
I have been using flash image GUI and have not had a problem with mikrunny which uses anthrax kernels.

If he is Hboot 1.5 you have to use the fastboot flash boot boot.img other wise you will have a bad kernel flash no wifi crappy 3g among other issues....
Hboot 1.5 users can't just flash a rom with a kernel in it. That is for the folks on older hboots....
Sorry, have done this:
(open command prompt at adb tools folder)
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot twrp-shooter-2.0.0RC0.1.img (file is in my adb tools folder)
Wipes
Flash rom
Hundreds of times successfully for many many roms of all types... Kernels, and wifi, and etc... Have all been fine.
I've been on 1.5 hboot s-on the whole time. There are a lot of misconceptions out there about 1.5
Just use flash image GUI. No adb or computer needed.

I don't use TWRP 2.0 due to a few roms it has flashed dirty with issues and some apk files were missing that shouldn't of been along with the roms themes.
Been using CWM recovery.
I know what your saying about recovery. Makes things easy anyways wasn't hammering on you just making things simple
I know the myths about flashing on hboot 1.5
One thing I know you can't do is just wipe and flash a rom using CWM or TWRP 2.0 while in recovery on your phone cause the kernel won't take you have to use adb. Which is what your saying while in recovery. I was thinking you ment you could just flash in recovery without using ADB your method is right. Hope the OP is up to date with flashing lmao might be confused now.. ...

All you have to do is fastboot into recovery and flash the ROM from there. It will pull the kernel from the ROM. if you want a different kernel then put the kernel on the Sd card and flash it after the ROM is flashed.

Yea, but when I do that - I get the WIFI error on almost all kernels used. I then have to use Flash Image GUI to install the one working kernel I have and it resolves the wifi issue for me.
The problem is, no matter if I use Flash Image GUI app, adb shell, bootloader, or install from recovery, it installs the rom fine, but when the system loads, no wifi, tried 6 roms, anthrex kernels etc, all the same.
I really appreciate the recommended steps provided above, I'll try both - removing boot-img and flash boot via fastboot or boot twrp shooter 2 directly and see how it goes. THANKS AGAIN
I've been using the fastboot loading of TWRP 2.0 to flash my ROMs and have had no problems with the Sense ROMs, but the AOSP ROMs/Kernels never would give me WiFi. I'll try the other two techniques of flashing the kernel (GUI and Fastboot flash) and report back the result of AOSP ROMs. It would be great to use an AOSP on this phone, my preferred Launcher SPB 3D doesn't need Sense...

Give fast boot a try no issues for me.
My general method is flash the rom, boot, wifi busted, install titanium, restore flash image gui, flash kernel, reboot, bam...
If I'm in a rush I'll just flash via fastboot.
So far no kernel issues not sticking. Everything works.
Easy answer so this thread can end...
1 match kernel with rom... Asop ROM (cm, miui for instance) need asop kernel.... Sense rom (fresh for instance) needs sense kernel
2 flash rom and kernel with adb (need computeri)
3 flash rom with GUI (no computer needed)
Directions... Flash kernel of choice with GUI then flash rom...
Phone reboots but data broken
Reflssh kernel with GUI now everything works

This is not 100% correct. If you use my application, Flash Image GUI, you're able to flash ROMs and kernels w/o ever using the command process.
Details are all below.
Although, as a word of cuation.
Using the command process to fastboot boot c:\recovery.img is the best way to fully nandroid backup and RESTORE the device.
This is important because many times there are bugs or issues in custom software users don't want bu don't know until they load it. If you want to easily be able to revert, always use proper backups.
If you have hboot 1.5, the main limitation is not being able to flash the kernel through standard recovery mode.
HTC unlocks write access to the kernel in two other modes: normal android mode and fastboot mode.
I've answered this question many times on this Q&A forum, so I'm pasting an excerpt from a previous answer. Please post back if you have questions or something isn't clear!
The main issue around kernel write access is due to the HTC unlock method only allowing kernel write access in two modes: normal Andriod mode and fastboot.
1) Booted in normal Android mode. My application, Flash Image GUI, will flash any ROM.zip or kernel .zip file with the HTC unlock method because it runs in normal android mode. HTC unlocks write access to the boot partition, where the kernel is stored, in normal Android mode. Flash Image GUI also properly loads the respective WiFi modules essentially eliminating this WiFi mismatch error.
After loading the ROM .zip, Flash Image GUI will flash only the kernel and modules. Reboot into the custom recovery to flash there rest of the ROM.
2) Fastboot booted into the custom recovery using the following command: fastboot boot c:\android\cwm-recovery.img. HTC unlock method allows kernel write access while using fastboot boot of a custom recovery. This mode requires a computer.
Hope that helps!

You know I also heard that if your Rom has no custom kernel you can flash it in a regular recovery with out computer is that correct?
And with the explanation and all that being said....Im good to go and flash themes and Rok with your app?

The only time issues occur is when the .zip file contains a kernel. The HTC unlock method blocks all writing to the kernel partition from recovery mode. This is where my app, Flash Image GUI, helps out as it allows the kernel and modules to be properly loaded so the rest of the .zip file can be loaded from the recovery!
If the .zip file does not contain a kernel, you can flash directly from recovery w/o any issues.
Hope that helps clarify!

I assume you flashed silverneedle on top of a 2.3.4 ROM, which is why it wouldn't boot. That kernel is designed for 2.3.3.

He's still around. He's dev'ing for the Nexus. He just didn't feel like doing the 3D even though people basically paid him (donated) to come over.
Unless he has a surprise for the 3D, which I doubt it though.

I did the same thing; tried to flash silverneedle through flash image gui, but on top of Scott's CleanRom 2.9, which bricked it (of course), then followed the steps that the poster did to fix his, to no avail.
I can get into recovery and everything, but I have tried many combinations of kernels and roms, with data wipes all over, yet still nothing gets me past the htc screen. Technically I do get past that screen, but all I can do (without removing the battery and booting to recovery) is turn the capacitive buttons on and off with the power button, lol.
I am using twrp btw, what is different between his problem and mine that is keeping his solution from working for me?

You should do it with a PC not directly from phone if you are on hboot 1.50 and 2.3.4 ROM. Silverneedle is kernel made for 2.3.3 ROMs.
Copy a ROM's zip file to SD card using recovery/card reader > Copy boot.img from the ROM's zip file to fastboot folder > boot your phone in bootloader then select fastboot > connect your phone to pc (it should say fastboot usb on phone)> now open cmd > head to your fastboot folder in cmd> then type fastboot flash boot boot.img > then type fastboot boot xxxxx.img (xxxx = your recovery img (cwm/twrp) ) > Now your phone will boot into recovery (make sure red LED is on in recovery) > then wip everything using a wipetool > then flash another another ROM .......
this is what i have done. I was able to pass the htc screen and the screen went black.Everything was working (even touch was working, Volume keys tooi can hear sound) but the screen didnt light up it was black....
Hope this helps.............
Try going back to cwm... I had the same problem after flashing twrp2.0... So I flashed cwm back and flashed the rom the adb/fastboot way and everything went good...... A lot of people are having problems with the new twrp....... I'm on hboot 1.50 if your wondering....

Success! OMG THANKS!
What I needed to do; Copy boot.img from cleanROM2.9 into my fastboot folder > Cmd Fastboot flash boot boot.img > cmd fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (my twrp name)> clear everything> flash cleanrom2.9> reboot
I was trying all last night to do this, but my process was incorrect; I tried to create a Kernel from the boot.img inside cleanROM and flash that separately, but it wasn't working because on Hboot 1.5 you MUST use fastboot usb to flash the boot.img directly, THEN flash the rom on top.
Would this be the case for all ROM's, or just the ones that use custom kernels?

If you are going to flash a ROM that uses the same kernel as your current ROM then you dont need a pc (i guess so)........and i have a method to flash kernels/ROMs without using PC on Hboot 1.50. I never had any issues with it . The only issue i faced was in a sense 3.5 ROM(but i dont know if it was due to my method or the ROM zip was corrupted )......
And For flashing custom kernels use flash image GUI . But remember , Only use 2.3.4 kernel not 2.3.3
I was able to use the HTC method to root my phone a couple of weeks ago. I was able to install one of Chad's kernels - but the rom I loaded didn't accomplish what I wanted it to.
Today - I've tried to flash a new kernel, and no matter what I do - the older version of Chad's kernel still shows up. I've even tried to install a stock kernel and no dice.
Any idea what I can do? After several hours of trying, I'm at my wit's end.
Assuming you've seen/followed the procedure in this post?

Yep, that's what I used. I can still flash any rom - but the kernel always stays the same. :-(
I had the same problem with my HBoot 1.50.
I found out after doing hours of research that you have to either use Flash Image Gui or boot into recovery through fastboot by typing:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
everytime you wanna flash a new kernel because hboot 1.5 is not fully rootable (recovery.img should be the image file of the recovery agent you want to use, ex: clockwork or twrp). So if you used the fastboot method to get to recovery, you just flash whatever rom you want in recovery mode.
I suggest flash image gui. that app makes life much easier for hboot 1.5 users. you have to pay for the app on the market but you can download the same app for free here by the creator of the app himself:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045797
Enjoy!
I think I'm really screwed now. I went back through the whole process - locked and unlocked, flashed through TWRP and STILL the old kernel shows up. Even worse - now all I get is an "error" when I try to activate my wireless.
Any ideas how to fix this?
Edit: Holy cow, Flash Image GUI was the key. I don't know why TWRP stopped working for flashing my kernel, but Flash Image GUI worked!! It's really weird, but I plan to use TWRP recovery to flash ROM's and then Flash Image GUI to flash kernels afterwards.
I've got some step-by-step info that may help in the future. Its Cwm, but the basics are the same.

I'm trying to flash Awesomesauce. I know with HBOOT 1.15 I have been flashing the boot.imgs from ROMs through fastboot. I'm currently on SuperLTE ROM, HBOOT 1.15. Awesomesauce is supposed to have the S-On installer zip built in. I downloaded the S-ON flavor of Awesomesauce 2.2, flashed in recovery, rebooted into bootloop. I then tried flashing the boot.img from the Awesomesauce zip then flashing the zip again in recovery. No luck, more boot loop. I read the Sticky pertaining to flashing kernels for HBOOT 1.15 but I didn't see anything about flashing a kernel that wasn't already inside the ROM zip.
So what am I doing wrong? Do I need to reflash the ROM since I have decided to change kernels? Or am I just a super nooblet and not doing the process right?
Some roms fail on the kernel installer, you should be able to.just extract kernel and fastboot, I don't think there would be any problem after that

So what am I doing wrong? Do I need to reflash the ROM since I have decided to change kernels? Or am I just a super nooblet and not doing the process right?

I'm guessing fastboot flash doesn't work. You could try to manually place the kernel into the rom by replacing the kernel folder in the rom with that from awesome, copy/paste the contents from system>lib>modules into the same location in the rom. Zip the rom and flash.

Some roms fail on the kernel installer, you should be able to.just extract kernel and fastboot, I don't think there would be any problem after that

Extract kernel and fastboot? Does that mean extract the kernel folder from the Awesomesauce zip and flash that through fastboot? What would be the command for that? "fastboot flash kernel kernel.zip"?
It's the boot.img, it is pretty much the fail safe way to flash a kernel and components. I have yet to have it fail unless I didn't have full access to fastboot

I'm trying to flash Awesomesauce. I know with HBOOT 1.15 I have been flashing the boot.imgs from ROMs through fastboot. I'm currently on SuperLTE ROM, HBOOT 1.15. Awesomesauce is supposed to have the S-On installer zip built in. I downloaded the S-ON flavor of Awesomesauce 2.2, flashed in recovery, rebooted into bootloop.

That's what I had tried first and got stuck in boot loop. I'll try it again after class today.

Tried the Flash Img GUI app if that's what you mean. The link you posted gives me a 404 error. I just tried flashing via Flash Img GUI and still no dice. I've tried flashing a different (Enoch) via fastboot, next I'll try flashing it via Flash Img GUI. Any other ideas?

I even tried this, still getting a boot loop after trying to flash any kernel other than the one that is baked into SuperLTE. Any ideas guys? At this point, I've tried Awesomesauce, Enoch, and EvilZ and have flashed using various methods: recovery (with S-On installer kernels), fastboot, Flash Img GUI, desktop boot img flasher. All of these send me into boot loop.
Try meanrom, evilz kernel runs fine on that one

Using EvilZ kernal breaks mikeys tweaks refer to my last post
Runs fine for me and it seems to me op is trying to flash a kernel separate from the one packed into rom
Figured it out. My phone won't play nice with 2.1GHz OC. My friend suggested I try the 1.89 flavor of Awesomesauce. Flashed in recovery (S-On Installer Script), boot looped once then rebooted to the ROM. I should have thought of this before.
Yeah things like that slip my mind, sorry I didn't think of that. I even had to check my phone to see if I'm overclocked lol
