So i finally got rooted and flashed the 2/13/2013 version of the Supercharged Hatka ROM to my DNA. But i can't get the Wifi to work and for some reason, I still can't do any commands from the prompt. I've tried to install the drivers multiple times and when I plug my phone into my computer, it says either "device drivers could not be installed" or "the usb device is not recognized." If I try to boot into bootloader and get to recovery from there, it flashed the "HTC Quietly Brilliant" screen and then just goes right back to the bootloader. If I try to get to the recovery from the long press power button>restart>recovery, it just reboots the system. I need to either fix this Wifi problem, or get back to my stock ROM and retry but I need to get to recovery. HELP

Same story here, except the only thing not working for me is WiFi. And of course, can't ask the devs in their thread due to low post count. Good luck friend, I may try the newest release before jumping ship. Damn shame though, I like the ROM.
If WiFi is not working that means that you didn't flash the boot.img for the kernel.

Okay, but I can't do any other work on the phone because my computer says that the USB device is not recognized. It sometimes says that it is working like normal and I can reach the root and everything but then it will just cut out and say that it isn't recognized.
I couldn't quite tell what all your problems are, but it sounded like you are having trouble getting fastboot to work on your current rom, so you can't flash the kernel to get wifi to work.
If you are still s-on, and can't get fastboot to work so you can flash the kernel, you can buy the app ($1?) "Flash gui" which will let you flash the kernel while booted into the rom. You can also use flash gui to reflash cwr or twrp recovery.
Obviously, the better option is to get your driver situation resolved so you can not only flash the kernel, but also get s-off

Can you get to fastboot? With phone off hold volume down button down while pressing power. You will be in hboot. Hit power button to get to fastboot. Plug usb to pc, does highlight in red change to "FASTBOOT USB"?

I can get to fastboot and "fastboot USB" comes up when i plug into my computer. The problem is, my computer says that the "USB Device is not recognized." If i go to my computer, my phone's storage isn't there. My phone charges when plugged into the computer but it doesn't not seem to want to recognize it. Recently, I got it to recognize for a good period of time, enough for me to start to relock my bootloader and unroot, but when I went to enter the "fastboot oem lock" command, it just says "waiting for device" and it never does anything.

Can you get to bootloader by pressing power vol down?
If you can. hook your cable to phone and get it to fastboot usb mode then run the RUU file on your computor. This will unroot your phone. this is how i fixed my phone. I hope you get it fixed.

what your seeing with the qusb is usually a indication is bricked.

Try hooking the phone to the computer, after you do that open a command prompt and type. "adb reboot recovery" I hope you backed up, run the back up you should have, then you should be fine, i doubt your bricked.

thanks for the responses but i panicked and took my phone in for repair and sprint gave me a new one.
My wife's EVO is running the Mean ICS rom from last summer and I'd like to go to JB so she stops getting the OTA notification. I tried flashing a new ROM (using TWRP 2.5) to no avail (tried 3 different ones). Then I was going to roll back to stock and can't even re-lock the bootloader. When I use the QB King video I plug in the usb on bootloader and it doesn't show "fastboot usb" until I scroll down. Any thoughts?

Are the USB ports you're using 2.0 or 3.0? I recently got a new laptop and found that my LTEVO didn't play nice with 3.0 ports so I had to set my BIOS to use the USB ports as 2.0 in order to be able to work with my phone.

You have to press the power button to select fastboot

Yeah, I did that. When I enter a command it just says "Waiting for device". I've tried in fastboot, hboot, fastboot usb. Doesn't seem to matter.
If your command window says 'waiting for device' while you have already selected fastboot from bootloader menu then its most likely your fastboot drivers aren't installed. They usually don't install automatically in Windows and it may list "Android 1.0" in device manager with a yellow exclamation mark meaning the drivers weren't automatically installed. If this is the case just download HTC Sync online, install it and make sure at the top of your device manager list "My HTC" is showing. Then you can commence fastboot commands such as relock etc.
Alright so my issue is I flashed an ics rom on my evo LTE but accidentally with the wrong firmware. When the update was just about done, the screen went black. No charge light when plugged into a charger and the device will not power on, or do anything(tried button combinations). However when I plug it into my computer,device manager sees my phone as “My HTC”. So it seems to have a connection but it doesn’t do anything to the phone. Fix possibly?
Sorry for asking such a basic question guys. New to the forums but definitely not new to flashing roms. This problem just confuses me to death.
Can you supply as much info as possible.
QUOTE=bigdaddy619;45718286]Can you supply as much info as possible.[/QUOTE]
Yes I can my friend. Of course, I got S-OFF with moonshine. Never had a problem there. Rooted also with moonshine as well. Flashed a lot of different jelly bean roms (CM, Meanbean) to see which one best suited me. Well after awhile I decided to give one of the ics roms a shot but the firmware version on my evo was for jelly bean only, not ice cream sandwich. Just as the flash of the ics rom was about finished, the screen went black. (Battery was above 50%). I tried every button combination, but nothing worked. Tried connecting it to a charger and the orange charge light wouldn't even come on. I even left it on the charger overnight, but no dice. So the phone is totally unresponsive to everything. One thing I did notice however is that when I tried connecting the phone to the computer, my computer makes the connection noise when it finds a
Usb device. Checked my device manager on windows and my phone shows up as "My HTC". So it seems as my computer has some type of connection to the phone. With that being said, would there be some way to use some unbricking software or any other way to unbrick my phone? (From what I see, I think the bootloader may be corrupted)
Since you can hear USB connection, I wonder if running fastboot devices from CMD would yield any results. Though I suspect you'd probably have to be booted to fastboot USB to see.

Would you know of what commands may work for my device? Cmd is new to me, or well at least when it comes to sending commands to phones lol.

Thank you much sir. Here's what I found out. When I type the command "adb devices", nothing shows up. When I type in "fastboot devices" here is what it says:C:\Users\lisa\Desktop>fastboot devices
C:\Users\lisa\Desktop>fastboot devices
t♥☻ fastboot
guessing that's not a serial number, as it should be, but it recognizes my device as a fastboot device. Is there any hope of fixing this paperweight?
ADB commands only work when the phone is booted to the ROM, whereas Fastboot commands only work in the bootloader when connected via Fastboot USB mode.
Can you get to the bootloader at all?

The only way I can get to the bootloader is by using the command prompt. Otherwise, my phone remains inoperable.
What happens when you select the recovery option in the bootloader?
Meaning that fastboot shows my device is connected but I cant access it on my phone.

Bricked Phone Stuck in Fastboot
My phone is bricked and I can only get to fastboot usb. I also lost TWRP, trying to run RUU for radio. Current radio is 1.12.11.1210 and looks like there is not a full RUU for this. SD Card also bad, so couldn't get my Backup. Is there a way that I can sideload or push TWRP to the phone? I want to re-flash a custom ROM in hopes that this will fix issue. I have flashed CM 10 in past, so I figure all I need to do is put CM on sd card and then I can flash from there.

You can't access TWRP because you over-wrote it with the factory RUU firmware image, it isn't there anymore...
Download TWRP image from TWRP official site at https://dl.twrp.me/vigor/ or Flyhalf's build at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1902381
Either one is good... then start fastboot, connect usb and flash recovery with the command:
fastboot flash recovery <path/filename of TWRP IMG file>
give it a minute or so, reboot into Hboot and start TWRP.
im having a similar issue but my computer always says waiting for device in command prompt. I have all the drivers installed and the phone says "usb fastboot" or "fastboot usb" (cant recall what order those 2 words are in LoL)

You probably have a driver issue then... Install HTC Sync, connect the phone, then disconnect it, remove HTC Sync and it should work. If that doesn't work, try a different USB port.
Honestly, I switched to Linux a long time ago... I don't have driver issues. If you were running Linux, even a live or USB key distro, you would access it easily.

You don't need USB debugging to use fastboot when your phone is booted into bootloader. What you need there is a fastboot tool and drivers. I'm using this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118
and if it doesn't install correct drivers for you, you can get them here:
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/88481
first thing to do is check what fastboot returns after this command:
Code:
fastboot devices
if it shows your device ID you're good to go
I'd suggest downloading stock firmware first and flashing it before messing with custom recovery. Just remember Motorola often updates bootloader with new firmware so don't flash anything older than you had on your phone before.
Good luck
EDIT: you can also use RSD Lite to flash a new software, it basically automates fastbooting proccess, so theres no risk of misspelling or doing other stuff wrong
EDIT2: firmware is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/general/index-moto-g-factory-firmware-images-t3169639
also, the OP (lost101) is a great, helpful guy who may give you some advice if you need
