Rooted my phone, installed a custom rom and ran that for a few weeks so I have successfully installed 1 rom. Tried a different rom since and it wouldn't get past boot screen.
Tried reflashing the boot.img file still no joy.
Now it wont boot to the boot screen OR hboot.
The power light LED is on constantly, even when not being charged
Phone: HTC One S
1st Custom rom :Cyanogen
2nd Custom rom: Stock LITE from a link on another thread. (Unfortunately I can't post links because I am too new)
I am in the UK so am I right to assume that I have the S3 version not S4 version? Could trying to put a S4 rom on an S3 phone have caused my problem?
Any ideas?

Hi all, I have been reading for an hour or so, searching here and google but I am a bit stuck.
Basically I was trying to install one of the 4.03 roms and I hit kernel panic, no problem I thought, I would just flash back to stock and go from there!.
The situation I am in now is that I only have access to download mode, which is recognised by odin, but it doesn't matter what I flash, I get the gs2 boot screen (no triangle) and then a black screen.
Download mode shows that my binary is samsung official, but I just cant get any room to boot passed the initial boot screen.
Anyone have any ideas what I can do? My phone is a UK unbranded i9100, on t-mobile network.
Originally I tried flashing the 4.03 rom through recovery, I can no longer access recovery.
Did you try to flash stock rom or cf root kernel? I saw here one guy from germany had same problem and he solved. If you have a look on Siyah kernel thread, he posted there a posts about this 2 days ago, you can check, you'll find it. Good luck
Thanks! Reinstalled CF-root and then another rom, all good!
for some reason every time I flash a new rom on my phone it will go fine after the initial reboot it will boot up fine, but after I reboot the next time it just sticks on the custom padlock screen, iv let it sit for a hour and it wont go past, if I flash rom again it will do the same thing, iv flashed hyperdrive rls4, it worked fine for a while but when I went to rls5.7 it started doing this, so I tried going back to 4, it would do the same thing, iv also flashed synergy, rls6 and 7, and the stock rooted deodexed rom, it all does the same thing, iv odin back to stock and rerooted, it still does it when I flash the new rom, I go by the instructions exwhyactly when flashing, data wipes and everything, anyone got any ideas why this happens
what kernel are you flashing? Must be a loki kernel.
I just purchased a new battery and wall battery charger. now I thought initially it was an issue with my battery being dead, but have two fully charged and still having issues. Issue I am having it when I try to boot it it will get to the s2 splash screen then it just repeats it. And yes I even tried odin to no avail. Same issue still persists. any idea to a solution? It appears I can only access download mode, no recovery, or normal booting.
EDIT: Fixed that issue...now trying to remember how to flash the CWR on it haha
You don't install CWR on our phone, it's included in the custom kernels.
You need figure out which firmware version you're running, such as Gingerbread, Jellybean etc. Then flash a compatible kennel and you'll have the recovery you want.

I made a stupid mistake when unlocking my DNA and flashing a custom ROM (ViperDNA 4.1). I ran the rumrunner S-OFF which seemed to go without flaw. The mistake I made was checking to see if root installed which I'm assuming now it didn't. I installed Clockwork Recovery on it and booted into recovery and installed ViperDNA which gave errors. When I rebooted I was stuck at the boot splash. I tried an unbricking method posted on YouTube that required going into Fastboot USB and running an OEM Lock command and then using HTC's ROM update utility to reflash stock back to it which failed. I've rooted and flashed recovery to a lot of devices so I wouldn't consider myself to be a total noob but I'm at a loss here. Any help would be greatly appreciated! :fingers-crossed:
Black htc screen with triangles on each corner
Man I really need help. ...I tried to flash and something went wrong to where I erased the entire os and I continued to fix this issue because all I had access to was twrp(custom rom) and bootloader. then what was crazy is that it appeared that based on the fact that I was on 4.4.2 kit kat that I was unable to fix it. after researching I found a ruu that didn't have the boot image so I flashed the factory ruu with no boot image and my htc scrren with the status bar filled all the way up but it never moved off of that screen I assume because that ruu didn't have the boot image so I thought that common sense would be to at one of the boot images that I had to the zip file of the ruu without the boot image....that's when I made things worst and now im stuck on this htc screen with the four triangles...my pc wont detect my device and im in need of some serious help....can you help? can anybody help?
I believe i can help!!!

I had the same problem last night. I couldn't get fastboot to work properly and thought I was screwed. Here is what I did:
I downloaded a stock rooted rom and put it on a flash drive. I used my USB OTG cable and booted into recovery. I then mounted the external drive and flashed the stock 4.1 rom back on it and that cleared it up. I haven't re-tried to flash the ROM I tried, but I think my issue was an old recovery version.
Once you get back to stock, update or change your recovery to a new one and then try again would be my suggestion.
If you don't have an OTG cable, I'd suggest at a minimum order one for when it happens again
Hi there, I'm stuck in a conundrum after owning and flashing several Android devices since Gingerbread, including HTC Evo 3D, HoX and SGS4.
My girlfriend bought a i9305 SGS3, and all is well running stock. I showed her the several ROMs out there (I'm currently using a S5 themed ROM for my S4) and she wants a similar looking ROM for her S3.
Downgraded to 4.1.1, SIM unlocked and PhilZ 6.48.4 installed with Odin all fine. Went to install "GlamourS5 for S3", zip copied fine, md5 matches but on reboot I get the Samsung Galaxy SIII i9305 boot screen, then the screen goes black. No boot animation, no bootloop.
So I pulled battery and went back into recovery and wiped /cache (usual boot issue), rebooted again and same again, gets past SGS3 screen but no boot anim or AndroidOS.
I have since tried "S5 Sensation ROM" and even tried "S5UI-FDN V5". All flash sucessfully and then boot to black screen. I also used latest TWRP and PhilZ 4.41.6 in case the latest PhilZ was bugged. Again, the screen worked A-OK stock.
I'm after any ideas while I restore stock 4.3.
Thanks in advance!
I am not sure but are these roms for the s3 i9300 or s3 i9305?
I don't think you can flash a i9300 rom on a i9305
Cant do that
Those Roms are only for i9300.
Check for I9305 roms here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development-i9305
I dont think there are s5 themed roms for I9305
