Hey guys, so I just used Juopunutbear S-OFF to start installing some custom ROMs. Quick question, is there any special way I have to start flashing ROMs? I was trying to install [SENSELESS]_d3rpICS_[BAREBACK] so I downloaded the ROM and placed it on my SD card. Once I powered my phone back on and try to install the new ROM is says that my SD card is not inserted into the SD slot (which it is, I can even see files on it).
Also, now I can't even power my phone back up and fully boot up, it is stuck at the hTC screen. Any suggestions?
Can you boot into hboot? What recovery are you using?

If you did a back up before flashing the Rom, restore it and then get 4ext recovery. It's the one that works best. Once you have 4ext, do a super wipe and then flash it again.

I'll give it a shot. Although I didn't create a back up before I began this process. I think when I was using Juopunutbear to callS-OFF it created a backup then. Is a back up mandatory?

A back up is useful when this happens. Just try and use twrp for now but wipe everything (data,cache,dalvik cache,etc) before flashing again.

There is also an updated version of twrp (version 2.2.0) that might work better. You can find it on their site and push it to your phone using fastboot. Google them and then follow the directions on their website.

Sorry, newb here!
So I'm a lil confused about hboot 1.5 :
Can I flash Roms using Flash Image GUI? Any?
And how?
When do i need to use fastboot?
I don't want to use my pc at all, or the less possible tbh.

You can flash roms using a computer with no issues lol using fastboot boot recovery.img in hboot with ADB.. You have to put a copy of your recovery.img in your adb folder for this method to work not hard at all.
You can use flash GUI to flash kernels and flash the rom in recovery .... You may wanna read up on the guy that made the app he has instructions...
I have used the app in the past not a bad thing to have... Tho I prefer using the computer always a one stop shop for me

Yeah but i travel a lot and don't have time to use my laptop, thanks anyways! Didn't know that!

Just download from the market the Flash GUI app and you can flash any boot.img (kernel) first and then flash the ROM and you should be all set.
Yes, if you travel alot then Flash Image GUI would be for you.
the pg86100 is the htc evo 3d if i am not mistaken and i have one and have hboot 1.5 also, i see you have boot manager listed as one of your apps. you can use this app as well with hboot 1.5 and still flash your heart away just make sure you unlock the bootloader via HTC's method and have root access and youll be good to go
Thanks guys, another question, whats the best recovery for hboot 1.5?
thats is all what you like to use... i personally use the clockworkmod recovery version 4.0.1.4

I found this video tutorial online of a guy rooting hboot 1.50 and at the end he flashes a Rom I believe Synergy 3.0 without using fastboot from the computer. He went into recovery and just flashed like normal. He said S-on doesn't mean anything. Unless you're flashing a kernel. Is he right?

Yeah, or you could use flash image GUI to flash kernels

i know with my evo 3d you can flash and rom from the recovery ... you just save the rom in its zip format to your sdcard and when in recovery mode that i use i just select " install zip from sdcard" and guide it to said rom then once selected it will begin an install process... now keep in mind that if your info is not backed up you will lose it... and you can still use the kernel that comes with the rom to flash it is just the same... it should be in the boot.img area of the rom you saved

Alright so I can flash from recovery a Rom that has a kernel already baked into it. But if i want to flash only a kernel, I have to use the computer or the other app?

It's essentially a snapshot of your current phone. In case that new kernel or rom put you in a bootloop or you wanna revert back.

you definitely do not need that app if youre flashing roms only...just keep a back up in case the rom is no good then you have the original to go back to

Will it boot to bootloader? Can yo get to recovery? Did you use Scott's clean wipe tool or did you just factory data reset? What rom were you on and what we're you trying to accomplish when wiping? Why are you using cwm and not amon ra? You really need to be specific or no one can help you.

I did factory wipe data and dalvik. But my device jus keeps freezing at the htc logo and won't boot up. Do I need to put a rom on the phone or what
I had the stock rom the oly thing I did to that phone was unlock bootloader then flashed Amon ra then downloaded rom manager and installed cwm then these problems happened after I wiped everything
Flash amon ra recovery again and install a Rom of your choice and make sure you flash the matching kernal. Then you should be all set.

You have to use a card reader in a computer. If these are not available to you, you might try the local library.
You should be able to go into recovery. Just reflash like Mike said and you should be good to go.
Like others have said just go into recovery and re flash your rom. There is Zero need to re lock and run an ruu, just a waste of time

That's exactly what it was! Thank you so much. You all have saved my life
So I recently switched over to the Evo 4g LTE and I'm trying to get everything set up to flash ROMs and such.
I unlocked the bootloader, rooted, and installed TWRP 2.3. I tried to flash the latest Viper 4g ROM but it wouldn't go past the boot screen so I figured I must not have something set up correctly.
Still a little iffy on the S-Off, S-On and if that has anything to do with it. I have extensive experience with flashing on Samsung phones so the switch to HTC has me a little lost. Thanks for the help.

I think he did ruu and everything went back to normal, since he says he restored to original and theres no way he could do that from recovery, I have a thread named the brick thread, try the solutions in there, on my case ruu wasn't working either and recovery was looping too , I had to use ruu mode, however I don't know what Dan did and I may be wrong, but this could work

Before running the ruu, try just re-flashing recovery from fastboot. Instructions can be found in either the TWRP or ClockworkMod thread.
Also, pay attention to somerandomname1's advice above.
