Hi guys,
a have a big problem. Just unlocked my HTC Evo with the unlock method by HTC and installed the Leedroid CFW (newest). Because a had problems with my wifi I flashed the wifi-fix fromm xda. Still didn`t work for me. Then I flashed a new kernel (Anthrax) and now I have a bootloop. tried everything (flashed the stock kernel, flashed a new rom, tried to put back to stock rom by flashing the RUU from Europe....). Nothing worked for me. Any ideas?
Could anybody help me?Bootloader works (fastboot included) but it doesn`t start at all.

Download this =====> http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/H...otevo3dnew.zip (no need if you already have fastboot/adb files.If you are gsm user, there might be different files)
Download any ROM or use any ROM that you have.
Download a superwipe tool ( or you can manually wipe everything from recovery).
>extract the "rootevo3dnew.zip" you downloaded above in "C:\" drive.(So it should be like "c:\rootevo3dnew\*.* ")
> install "HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe" from it.
> open the ROM.zip (that you want to flash) with winRAR/7z and copy the boot.img from it to the rootevo3dnew folder.
> open cmd prompt ( press the key between "alt and fn" and press "r" then type cmd and hit enter)
> navigate to fastboot folder ( command : "cd c:\rootevo3dnew")
> boot phone in bootloader
> select fastboot
> connect to PC (phone should say fastboot-usb)
> type command "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
> now type "fastboot boot cwm-4.0.1.4-shooter.img"
> Phone should boot into recovery ( make sure the red LED is lit up)
> now flash the superwipe tool.zip(or wipe everything manually from wipe menu in recovery)
> and then flash the same ROM from which you pulled the boot.img.......
Hope this helps...........

If you are unlocked using HTC method then you cannot flash any kernel directly from recovery.You will have to use fastboot method our flash image GUI app or bout recovery using fastboot then flash kernel.
If you flash any kernel directly from recovery you will have issues with wifi,4g etc.
Hope this clarify hope issue..........
Did the steps above but phone doesn`t boot in recovery menu. It boots to HTC Logo and then stops....

Are you sure you have tried this?
"fastboot boot cwm-4.0.1.4-shooter.img"
Is the bootloader still unlocked?
Phone started directly with OS. No recovery. Have the Insert Coin 1.0 running. Shall I boot phone in recovery menue to flash Insert Coin 1.0 again (after a full wipe) or shall I flash Insert Coin 1.1 (update) without reflashing the 1.0?

Use the recovery worked for you/Download a recovery that works for gsm phones and put it in fastboot folder.
then boot into boot loader....... select fastboot........connect to PC.........open command prompt........navigate to fastboot folder..........type "fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxxxx.img" xxxxxxxxxx is the name of recovery....
Then type "fastboot boot xxxxxxxxx.img"
then wipe everything and flash another ROM........make sure while flashing/wiping from recovery the red LED is lit up.
Ok seems to work. How can I S-Off?Is S-Off needful?
im in the same spot he is but now my bootloader says locked at the top but s-off still. I just cant get the commands to work on pc to try to use fastboot.
My phone stuck at the HTC boot screen. so here what happens :
Just got a new evo 3d (GSM). everything are locked, stock, a new virgin evo 3d (GSM).
locked, hboot 1.53.007, s-on
so what i did:
1. Unlock my phone with htc's way
2. Installing cwm 5.
3. Installing SU
4. directly enter cwm and install rom without downgrading hboot and s-off.
5. after flashing 3 types of roms, the results are still the same. it stuck at the 1st boot htc logo.
I was thinking of downgrading hboot and get the phone on s-off before retry to flash the roms again. but from the tutorial listed, they said need to on the phone, put on charging mode and debugging on. how im gonna boot up to android and proceed with that if i cant even on the phone?
However i still can go to the hboot screen and cwm. Can anyone guide me how to fix this?

As said above, you need to flash the boot.img from the rom.
Put it in de fastboot folder on your harddrive
in cmd:
fastboot flash boot (location of boot.img)
And try wiping everything and reflashing a few times.

You need to flash the kernel via fastboot.
Extract the boot.img from the rom on your computer.
Place fastboot.exe and boot.img in a folder.
Open command prompt and cd to the folder.
Power down phone. Hold volume down plus power. Select fastboot with power button.
Plug phone into computer. Phone screen should now say fastboot usb. If not, you need htc drivers for computer.
Now go to command prompt again.
Type exactly "fastboot flash boot boot.img" without quotes. Computer screen will do some stuff... phone will reboot... whala.
Oh, format boot partition with 4ext before starting all this.

i am noob here, so i need a little help.
after reading many guides and watching videos, i rooted my htc evo 3d gsm using htcdev method.
flashed clockworldmod recovery v 5.0.2.0
installed supersu v1.30
now my phone is unlocked with s-on
i did a nandroid backup
tried to install a custom rom by wipping all 3 datas
installed this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2161968
but nothing happened.
i m still running the stock rom.
I found these instructions but couldnt understand them
Code:
- Extract boot.img from zip and put into your folden when you have fastboot.
- Put rom into sd
- Full wipe from recovery
- Flash rom
- Flash boot.img with an erase cache before and after boot flash
can anyone help me plz
thanx in advance
The easiest method available is to flash 4EXT recovery and turn on smartflash in options. this way you wont need to flash boot.img every time you install a rom.
If you still want to know what that guy was trying to say then read on.
during unlocking you must have used adb.exe and fastboot.exe files. you need to extract boot.img file from your ROM zip and put it in the folder where adb and fastboot files are located.
after that open cmd and navigate to that folder. then connect your phone in fastboot mode (turn off phone and hold power+vol down to boot into bootloader and select fastboot from menu)
the phone should now show "FASTBOOT USB". now enter this command in cmd without the inverted commas: "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
it should something like sending and write OK in cmd
then reboot phone.
P.S. that rom is very similar to stock rom with little visual differences. check in settings>about phone>software number.. if it shows skydragon3D then your rom flashed correctly
thank you so much man

Flashing the "recovery_signed.img" inside the folder of this Download would be helpful?

This is what i plan to do :
Download and flash TWRP for t329w
Transfer http://pan.baidu.com/s/122oNL (version 1) to SD Card and the recovery_signed.img and boot_signed.img to SC Card
Reboot phone to recovery
Choose Wipe then Swipe to Factory Reset
or the best is Select Advance Wipe, tick all except sdcard then swipe to wipe
Select Install and select the version1 rom.zip then swipe to confirm flash
Wait until the installation is finished
Reboot phone to fastboot and connect it to your PC
Open command prompt, lead it to folder where you installed adb and fastboot and issue commands:
fastboot flash recovery C:\recovery_signed.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot
fastboot flash boot c:\boot_signed.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot

One last thing, I forgot to mention I had taken a NAndroid backup before installing the ROM. I restored it and did a full wipe/factory reset, but I think the kernel is the problem (it shows the kernel used by the single sim ROM)
So as of now, I'm just going to flash the boot and recovery, coz boot_signed should change the kernel.
Also, this folder contains other images such as radio, hboot, dzdata etc. what are these for and would they help?
Thanks a lot for your help!!

After restoring Nandroid, just fastboot flash the boot_signed.img and reboot and see whether it boot. It should work if the custom recovery is working well for your device. No need to fastboot flash recovery_signed.img first. Just boot and see whether it works. If it works then only you fastboot flash the recovery_signed.img if you want to.
Don't worry about other images as you can't flash those on a S-On device.

What do you mean shows Error : Cannot open boot.emmc.win ? boot.emmc.win is created by a TWRP recovery only. If there is one you don't have to "open" it, just copy it to your fastboot folder
Now you mentioned you use nexus prime as the recovery do you mean you use NexusRecovery ? Can you list here the file names inside the nandroid backup ? I don't think you have boot.emmc.win in NexusRecovery

tried restoring the whole backup, doesn't boot.
even a wipe data/factory reset doesn't make it boot!
Will taking it to an HTC centre help? (I'm ready to pay some amt of money.)
Oh no... you don't know what fastboot flash means ? It is not using the recovery to restore boot. You need to copy the boot.img to your PC where you have all your fastboot files in a folder.
Try again this way as I don't have my PC with me. Replying to you with someone else PC.
In my ROM threads, you will see Boot.img_Installer_RCx.x.zip in post #1. Download any of them then do the following
1. Download theBoot.img_Installer_RCx.x.zip and extract it on your PC desktop
2. Reboot your DX to bootloader and connect to your PC (you should see the word "fastboot usb" in red color on the bootloader)
3. Open the Boot.img_Installer_RCx.x folder that you extracted, you should see a batch file Install Boot.img.bat there
4. Replace the boot.img with your boot.img (don't use the one that already in the folder). Try the boot_signed.img that you have, rename it to boot.img
5. Run that Install Boot.img.bat and when it stop just press any key to exit
6. Reboot
And yes, taking it to HTC centre will help but of course you need to pay them

Hmm, I will try that. Guess I will have to take it anyway coz of the SIM card issue.
Thanks a lot man. You've been a great help. Appreciate every bit of it.

Ohh, I just read it properly. I know what fastboot flash means. Using Android SDK > Platform tools > Shift+rightclick > open as command prompt > fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
I've already done it. This boot_signed.img in this thread seems weird.
After installing the custom ROM, restoring my nandroid backup, my phone was booting, but without the sim being recognized.
So I fastboot flashed the above (second post of this thread) boot_signed.img from c:\
But THAT boot_signed.img led to my phone being stuck in a bootloop > white start screen > turns black > try switching it on again > same thing
Hoped I could restore the nandroid boot using recovery advanced restore, but didn't work.
Will try fastboot flashing the MIUI boot.img (coz that's what was working initially, though without a sim, and the one in this thread's second post doesn't have a source), atleast that should get my phone booting. And will try searching for the boot of my nexus recovery backup, coz that will be the stock boot.img.
My last thing before I go to HTC .

I only flashed boot and recovery, not the others
I'm pretty inexperienced with rooting.. I think I may have messed my brother's phone up. I rooted his rezound and got cwm recovery working. I tried to flash a "TACHYON-1.2.zip" rom I found here and now it won't boot past the white background with green htc screen when I try to boot the phone. Please help me try to fix this! I can still boot into cwm recovery.
[EDIT] When I wipe data/factory rest it says error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure!
This was probably a mistake but I'm freaking out. I put CleanROM Standard 4.5.zip from here https://www.copy.com/s/uYOSaNCntCvx/CleanROM on another sd card and installed it after tying to wipe again. Now it boots past the htc screen and the CleanROM screen boots for a minute, then sticks..

You need to extract and flash the boot.img file from the ROM zip separately via fastboot. Extract the file and place it in an easy to access place on the drive (like same place as fastboot/adb) , then after flashing the ROM reboot into hboot and start fastboot, and use:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then reboot and be patient, sometimes the first boot seems to take forever.

Thank you for the reply, and sorry if I ask too many questions, but how exactly do I flash the boot.img file? In CMD? There isn't a flash option in my fastboot section of the phone, just BOOTLOADER, REBOOT, REBOOT BOOTLOADER and POWER DOWN.

This is how far I got in cmd if I'm headed in the right direction at all..

You start fastboot in the phone, that puts it in a mode to enter fastboot commands from a PC... You Don't do anything in the phone in fastboot, you use the fastboot command that is part of the ADB package. The same way you would have unlocked the phone on HTCdev.com to allow root or CWM to be installed.

To borrow from the CM11 thread.
- Place the boot.img into the platform-tools folder of the Android SDK's install directory.
- Boot to the bootloader.
- Ensure your device is connected to your computer and that your device is now in fastboot mode. This is a white screen and it says fastboot on it.
- Open a Terminal (OSX or Linux) or CMD window (Windows) and cd to the platform-tools directory of the Android SDK's install directory.
- Issue this command to flash the boot.img we placed in the platform-tools folder earlier:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
- Watch the output of the terminal, it should say something like "sent successfully".
- Finally send this command:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Since you're s-on, you'll need to do this whenever you install a new rom.

Thank both of you so much! I'm sorry I had to have you completely spell it out for me, but I appreciate the help and this forum in general so much!
I hate to bring this thread back, but it's the best place to ask about my problem. I'm trying to switch from Clean Rom on an HTC Rezound to Venasaur Rom v3.2.0 because I read that it will work with a Straight Talk sim. I tried installing with ClockWork and I get the new rom's boot screen, but it won't boot past that. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I would really appreciate it if somebody could help me out again!
Did you flash the boot.img this time? I would suggest after you get booted, trying rumrunner to go S-off... It saves sooo much time... I'm always switching between multiple ROMs because I'm s-off....

... you should remember one thing for sure. Because you are s-on whenever you flash any custom rom, you have to flash its corresponding boot.img file in fastboot separately otherwise you are gonna get bootloop ...
