You put the boot.img in the adb folder.
open a command prompt to that adb folder
then fastboot flash boot boot.img
My phone is detected but having issues getting boot img to fastboot dir any help would be great sorry for the newbie question.

Just copy the boot.img file to your platform-tools folder when everything is set up. Open cmd prompt, cd to platform tools folder and use fastboot cmd

All of this is on your computer, not on the phone. If you used the fireballas unlock, just put the boot.img in the fireballas unlock folder that you unzipped. Then run the aforementioned fastboot commands from a command prompt.

To unlock bootloader u don't need sdk i unlocked mine on a pc all i did was run rsd lite. Once dat was done i put phone in fastboot mode, open cmd cd to the moto-fastboot folder(mine on the desktop) connect phone to pc and run commands worked flawlessly

Thanks already know that commands wouldn't accept on phone. But I figured it out had to reboot and try fastboot again

I unlocked my bootloader with the htc website and i tried to use the other tutorial on this website but i get stuck at the part with the ADB it says there is no command ADB in the command prompt
take note that adb has moved to platform-tools.
got me a couple times
So do I insert the files in platform then run command prompt

You need to open the terminal from the specified directory

Simplest way without having to be a cmd pro is to make a shortcut to the platform-tools folder on your desktop... then holding shift while right clicking on it will shoe you an option to open command prompt front that folder
If its not shift its Ctrl... I forget lol

you dont NEED to push the files to the phone. as long as theyre in the folder with fastboot, you can use cmd 'fastboot flash recovery thenameofyourrecovery.img'.

Just relocked and upgraded to the RUU, do I need to so the whole process to unlock again?
On a MAC, ./adb devices works and returns the device but ./fastboot unlock oem returns waiting on phone.

You sure you're in fastboot and not just hboot? It should say Fastboot USB in red on the screen.
Make sure you have any antivirus programs or anything like that turned off.

Tried it again, but got an error: error: cannot load 'Unlock_code.bin': No such file or directory
That mean I have to unlock it again?
Make sure Unlock_code.bin is in the correct folder with the fastboot executabke, that sounds like the problem the unlock code file isn't in the fastboot folder.

Your name is very fitting, found the old email with the file. Placed the file in the same folder as fastboot.

A binary is basically the file that runs. So it would be adb.exe or fastboot.exe or if you are in linux then just adb and fastboot.

Adb won't work in fastboot, but fastboot does.
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
Is what you should be doing...assuming the firmware zip was packaged correctly.
Quote from my HTC One firmware thread:
Place the zip in your fastboot/adb directory on your computer.
Put the device in fastboot mode
(Volume down and power until menu appears, select fastboot using power button)
Connect the device to the computer
Enter the following commands from terminal/command prompt in the fastboot directory, one at a time:
fastboot oem rebootRUU (this puts the device in RUU mode)
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
It will say that the update did not finish, to flush again, repeat the above step:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
Quote:
Important: the flash process halts at around 75% to 90% on phone screen! This is normal and a safety precaution!
The last few percent is the reboot, which is NOT happening automatically, so you get a chance to check the console output before reboot to make sure it is safe to reboot!
The bar will only fill up to 100% once you type the following command:
fastboot reboot-bootloader (this reboots the device to bootloader)

I think its windows and not having any new updated htc drivers. I tried for 2 days on 3 pcs and could not get it to work. Installed Linux and the first time it worked. Same with trying to adb sideload, would not work on windows but worked the first time on Linux

Sounds like you are missing fastboot drivers for the phone.. If it was Linux you would have to run the command in superuser.

You have to disable driver verification in windows 8.x to install the driver.

Yes I believe so. Guess it might not help out the AMD folks and it doesn't fix USB 2.0 ports.

You need to use fast boot commands when from the bootloader, adb in recovery or booted.
