Broken record time AGAIN....If your having an issue with the hack kit go back and READ the op and SEARCH the thread and forums. After reading and seaching go back to the op of the hack kit thread and look at the bottom. It will say if you need help hit up the irc. Seriously they will give you great help in the irc but you must search and read!!!!!!
I got your 10 char right here

Lets troubleshoot than shall we?
Did you turn off your antivirus when rooting (sounds like you didn't)
Did you have the HTC drivers installed?
Did you have HTC Sync installed?
Did you have iTunes installed?

Yes
Yes
NO
NO
i cant even redo the root because it says my phone isnt in debug
the irc was no help i got banned for going afk for 10 min

Great! You're essentially rooted. Something just messed up during the ROM modification phase. You need a clockworkmod recovery and then you can install any custom ROM you want. Here's a PD98IMG version of CWM Recovery:
http://hoxnet.com/droid/PD98IMG_cwmrecovery.zip
Move or copy this to your SDCard and rename it exactly "PD98IMG.zip" put it back in your phone and reboot to HBOOT. It'll scan the sdcard, find the image, and prompt you to install the image. From there, you can reboot to recovery and install a custom ROM. You may need to wipe data depending on the ROM. If you are dead set on keeping your data intact, then there may be a way depending on what happened and how far the rooting process got. You can jump into the IRC channel and we can work you through it:

Can't get into recovery (Revolutionary)

Hi All.
I'm having a problem with what appears to be Recovery mode in Revolutionary.
The Desire S has been rooted and S-Off. I then flashed Android Revolution 7(Mike1986).
As I'm about to sell the phone, wanted to do a factory reset, but this restarts the phone and gets stuck on the HTC logo. So I figured I'd manually flash a new ROM instead. So I go into bootloader, but when I get to the menu and select Recovery, again, it gets stuck at an HTC logo.

You need to flash an eng-hboot first before you can flash an RUU to go back to stock.
All details in my signature and the index thread.
Read the forum and index thread before doing anything

Oh, OK - I'm not that bothered about putting it back to stock firmware. I just wondered why Revolutionary doesn't seem to be working.
Presumably I just need to put PG88IMG.zip into the root of the SD card?

By the way did you install any recovery like cwm or 4ext?
Sent by my fingers to your head.

Um.....I'm fairly sure it was CWM, but don't hold me to that. Whatever it was, it allowed me to install Android Revolution 7.
I can't update HBOOT - Revolutionary keeps bypassing it?????

Android Revolution 7??? On the Desire S...? Where'd you get that from? It's not officially supported by the ARHD team!!

Now I'm absolutely confused where the hell I got that from!!!
I think the best course of action is to get the phone back into shape - so I need to flash the HBOOT back and presumably the recovery back if possible. Revolutionary is preventing me from flashing a new Hboot. Any ideas?
EDIT : Right. Using ADB, I've managed to re-flash CWM and now it works. But can someone advise on getting HBoot to flash?

Loll fire the dd command to flash hboot.
It is fine from adb.
See in the thread of my signature for the dd commands
Swyped from my Desire S waiting for Kernel 3, WAKE UP HTC

Just wanted to thanks everyone for their replies. At the moment I'm using a custom rom, with CWM still installed. I haven't sold it on yet, as the Sensation XE I bought to replace it, died within 24 hours! D'oh!!!

So I'm guessing you'll have to stick around just a little longer!

[Q] HTC Sensation won't boot past HTC screen

New to development... (hence the problems!!)
Followed online guide through HTCDEV to unlock HTC Sensation. Rooted phone and was trying out some custom ROMs which I managed with no major problems albeit I could not get the WiFi to connect (kept giving error message) i assumed this was a Custom ROM issue so changed to another.
I had made Nandroid back-up, which worked fine on the first restore attempt. unfortunately, now it just says MD5 mismatch so I cannot restore to my original working ROM.
Problem now is that I cannot get any of the ROMs I flash to boot past the White HTC screen. Advice on where to go from here much appreciated?

Hi,
Did you change the name of the nandroid backup?
If so,you must leave NO GAPS in it...
Check THIS THREAD

Thanks for the reply Malybru...
The thread lloks great and I'm sure now that as my phone has been unlocked through HTCDev and remains S-On that the Boot.img is the issue. Only snag is that now that I cannot get the phone to boot, I cannot connect it through USB to the computer to Flash the boot.image across. As I previously mentioned, I cannot get the Nandroid backup option working (I didn't change the name?) so I cannot seem to get out of my 'bricked' state!!
Any help greatly appreciated...

Hi,
Try to install 4EXT recovery from HERE

And when you have installed 4ext then remember to go to "tools" and enable "smartflash" every time you flash a rom. As it says in the guide.. Good luck..

NO joy i'm afraid - I cannot seem to get 4Ext onto the phone. It will happily open HBoot and CWM but no amount of trying allows me to get further

In your OP you get wifi errors because of kernel not being flashed as you are S-ON (HTCDEV unlock only unlocks certain partitions) and your booting issues seems to be coming from a boot.img/kernel related problem so my advice would be to S-OFF and use 4EXT recovery to flash another ROM and that should sort it (make sure to double check MD5 CheckSum of whatever ROM you are flashing!)

If I try to switch on phone it simply will not go past the initial white screen with the green HTC logo.
When I open in boatloader it goes through a cycle of checking SD card, loading image etc - at one point it states no image or wrong image and the parsing PG58IMG
Can I still S-Off and transfer 4Ext to the phone with this functionality and if so, could you please explain how. Obviously I can flash Zips from SD Card?

Hi,
Look HERE

Firstly, thankyou for your advice. However, unless I'm missing something (highly likely!!) it appears that to S-Off I will need to connect the phone through USB which does not recognise it?

Also the HTC Sensation opens for HBoot version does not include 1.27.0000 on the beta key generator?

as long as you are SON ..you cant flash firmware
now for ppl with htc-dev unlocked bootloader and S-ON ..the traditional way of flashing wont work
you need to do one extra step (if the step missed ..either the rom doesnt boot up or you will have wifi error)
there is a perfectly awesome guide on how to properly flash custom roms in your case
which malybru mentioned it in the second post itself of the same thread
which you are keep on ignoring and asking for more answers (which has been answered ages ago )
now read the thread ..understand it and flash the rom accordingly

I'm getting there slowly after the helpful nudge!! 4Ext flashed and smartflash enabled - trying to flash android rev HD as suggested but still not having much luck (still won't boot past HTC screen)
i did format the SD card previously following a previous troubleshooting thread (bad idea no doubt!!)
Could it be to do with the PG58img.zip- when bootloader opens it still says wrong image?

Hi,
Have you still got PG58IMG.zip on your sd card?
If so, delete it.

Sorted!!!
Many Thanks to all who have posted on this thread. Successfully solved the issues and thankfully phone works as a phone on And Rev HD. I just need to rectify the WIFI error when I get a chance. Any hints to an easy guide would be much appreciated. Also, any advice on the best custom ROM to use; I appreciate theres an element of personal choice but i'm after one which will allow me to maxmise the potential of the device in terms of speed without ruining battery life too much?
Thanks

Hi,
If you manage to sort a problem,could you please share what you did,so that others may benefit.

Solution
WiFi now working. I followed the guide suggested for me by Malybru at the start of this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861 I flashed 4Ext recovery instead of CWM. Then Android Rev Supawipe followed by Android Rev HD ROM. All exactly as advertised on the guide by using ADB. Initially WiFi wasn't working but I then flashed CM9 along with separately flashing the boot.img, again using ADB. All works perfectly now. Just follow the guide exactly and you should be fine. The main problem I had was assuming that because the phone did nothing when you connected the USB cable that connecting ADB wouldn't work. Don't think - just follow the guide!! Many Thanks All

[Q] Phone won't boot into recovery. Goes Black!

I have an HTC One X from AT&T. I recently got root and started playing. I flashed Clean Rom 6.5 using clockwordmod and it went well. Used it about a week and got bored. (Later I saw that TWRP was needed for that.) I decided I wanted to try a Cyanogen Mod but realized later after research that my phone received the OTA update that only allows Sense ROMS on my phone. After I flashed Cyanogen 10 with clockwordmod the touch screen wouldn't work. I tried to get back to Clean Rom 6.5 and tied to flash TWRP as my bootloader. It went bad from there. Now I cannot get to recovery. It appeas I don't have a bootloader flashed. I used FastbootFlasher_V2.4 and flashed TWRP. It said it was sent. Still won't go to recovery. I downloaded the RUU.exe and tried that process. It failed too. After I tried to restore the RUU it said to reboot. I did and then the cyanogen logo came on and hung. I went to fastboot and typed in fastboot erase cache. No help. Here's my screen info if that helps:

Slow up.... What if anything can you access on phone? Can you access hboot
Power on + volume down
Being your s-on it's near impossible to kill the bootloader
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium

You've given us your bootloader info so I doubt you've killed the bootloader. If it turns on it's far from bricked. Did you mean you can't get into recovery? Have you tried flashing a recovery to fix it?
