[Q] Flash a boot.img? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay, so today I flashed a rom and when I rebooted my phone, it was stuck at the boot image. I'm pretty sure the problem has something to do with the boot.img (the kernel right?). So now I need to flash a working boot.img onto my phone, which can't turn on. PLEASE help me.

[Q] HELP! - Bootlooping - Need Assistance

I tried to install CWM recovery by flashing the zip file in TWRP. It seemed to have flashed fine, but I cannot get into recovery now. When I try, the screen "flashes" and "flickers" a few times before going black. I've used odin to install the .tar file that I originally used to root the device and in goes through the process just fine. However, when I pull the battery and try to go into android stock recovery, it does the same thing ("flashes & flickers and then goes black"). When I try to boot the phone as normal (not into recovery) it boot loops between the blue samsung swirl and the verizon 4g logo.
I was on cleanrom 4.7 if that helps at all. I would greatly appreciate anyones assistance concerning this matter.
Edit: Found a .tar file for TWRP and was able to load it through ODIN. Once into TWRP I was able to restore a backup I made earlier today. Thought I would edit the post in case someone ran across the same problem.

My first time through a bootloop I ran into the same issue and had the same fix.

After several tries still in bootloop - HTC One X

Hi Community,
I have a massive problem and I hope you can help me.
I rooted my HTC One X successfully and tried to flash custom roms on it which kind of worked. I put the zip folder on the internat sd card and flashed it without flashing the boot.img.
Finnaly I found out to do that, flashed the boot.img but while installing the ROM the problem code/status 7 appeared and I had to restart the phone in order to put the right rom onto the phone, which i had on my computer.
But while booting, the phone just got stuck in bootloop showing the HTC logo.
I already tried quite a lot of stuff to rescue my phone, for example to restore the nandroid backup - didnt work, flash another backup onto phone - still bootloop, flashed a new rom with boot.img - still bootloop.
The only solution i could find was to unroot the device and flash the stock rom onto it.
Is that really my last resort or is there another way?
Thanks for your help.
I just saw that I posted it in the wrong forum. If a admin could please replace it, i tried to delete it but it didn't work.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

[Q] HTC Rezound Back to Stock

Hello Everyone,
I know that this is an old phone but could you please help me to install a stock rom or one that will work.
The problem
The phone is stuck in a boot-loop the person who asked me to look at it said that have been happening since the phone fell very hard.
What I did
I managed to get the HTC dev unlocked and flash cwm recovery (the latest version). At present the phone can only boot in recovery and the bootloader.
What I would like to do next
I would like to flash a rom anyone that can work with the current firmware, I think I will be able to update it from there.
So please any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank You
The real problem here is that the latest firmware does not have a RUU (the HTC firmware restoration file)... CWM is not really recommended anymore, you should change to the latest TWRP, then I would recommend flashing the ROM from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2260154
It is as close to stock as you can get in a non-bootable state. Remember that when you flash a rom on this device well it is S-ON, you must manually flash the boot image with fastboot.

Flashing ROM

Hello. I own prestigio multiphone3450duo, its mt6582 based. I downloaded custom ROM for mt6582 devices from mtkroms site called PussyFapv4. And my problem is that I cant flash ported ROM, I was able flash trought CWM only original one I downloaded, and when I try flash ported, it says aborted. Even if I replaced only boot.img file. Cant. And with original one I am stucked on bootloop as well, I let for 12mins to boot up, but its like phone turn off and again turn on. First I get logo,then grey screen, then black as turned off and again logo screen. So where is problem, why I can flash only non-ported one? At least I thought it will work but nah :/...PS: I restored system, everything works, I can boot now to my stock rom , but there is still pussyfap logo at start of booting instead prestigio one. Its necessary to flash stock rom using sp flash tool, or that logo doesnt affect anything?

My note 5 is messed up, I need some help badly.

So what happened was basically i was trying to remove twrp from my phone. I downloaded a recovery.img file and converted it to a tar file using some app i found and flashed it into my phone using odin.
However when i wanted to test whether the stock recovery mode worked, my phone became stuck on the booting screen. I am going to flash a stock rom on odin but will it fix the problem?
Thanks in advance to anyone who helps
Flashing stock rom should fix your issue but be sure you're flashing the latest firmware version available for your phone.
