My phone is
Unlocked with HTC Dev w/ S-ON
HBOOT 2.00.0002
Radio 3822.10.08.04_M

I hope these details can help

Did u flash boot.img separately?
If u unlock using htcdev u would need to do this every time u flash/restore a rom.

No I haven't I shall try it but I thought it was only for rom you flash

Flash boot.img separately. I didn't expect it to boot up. Lucky you that the kernel you had was compatible. Otherwise you would be stuck on splash screen.
Hit the thanks button and wam it dissappears ! Try it.

when the boot.img is flashed on the phone restarts and the Wi-Fi works but when the phone is restarted its stops again I am not sure why this is because

try to copy the the files from "modules" folder from the zip of kernel into system/lib/modules on your android. then restart phone

Hi there, I have a similar problem. My Desire S is rooted and S-OFF with a HBOOT 7.xxxxxxx in order to install the latest chinese ICS rom from HTC. I've flashed many roms but none of them can go the wifi. When I try to connect to my home router I always get the message "Obtaining IP address" and then restarts. On a nearby not protected wifi the phone connects, but internet doesn't work. It happened with MIUI roms from 2.3.9 to the latest 2.8.24, on CyanogenMod 9 and IceColdSandwitch.
Even before S-OFF the problem was the same. Only on CyanogenMod 7.2 I made wifi work, but after installing HBOOT 7 and chinese ICS rom even it can't run wifi anymore.
Please if anyone could help it was very appreciated! :crying:

What's meant to happen (and did with the previous Revo release) is it reboots 3 times and then says do you want to flash CWM. This Pre4 version falls over after each reboot so you then have to reboot the phone and start again. After 3 times or so it will then you're done and do you want to flash CWM

Hi,
Did you make a nandroid backup before you started.
If so,restore it .
If not,why not?
Look HERE
Follow the thread to get 4EXT recovery on your phone ,and using "Smartflash" to get custom ROMS onto your phone.
Use fastboot usb and try flashing boot.img over adb. It worked for me

i have a similar problem. cm10 will install it all goose good until you get to the setup part then it reboots. everytime.almost like a bootloop. i have s-off. unlocked bootloader,supercid. but my hboot is 1.17.0008. i went thru revolutionary do i need to update my hboot and do the hole root over useing jb? the onlything i can think of.........any ideas???
Yes, firmware 1.17 will ALWAYS cause reboots on android 4.x. Update your firmware (probably to 3.33)
Look here for details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21711154
Follow all instructions to update firmware. You basically put the file on your SD card and boot to bootloader. The bootloader should update the firmware from there.

Had this problem too until I used 4ext with the smart flash option. no real need to s-off now.

[Q] Htc One S Bricked?

Hi I recently tried installing MagioRom and now my phone wont boot. The last working rom I had was MaximusHD 10.0.0. I am S-off, H-Boot 2.15, and T-MOB010 and i have a U.S. Tmobile Htc One S I have tried restoring from several of my nandroids, inncluding my stock nandroid. I've tried several different RUU's (all Tmous), installed many different Roms, but the same thing always happens. The phone will go through the boot process but then freeze at the lock screen, showing only the status bar. After about 15-20 seconds it crashes and reboots. I've tried everything I can think of. Does anyone know how I can fix this? Thanks in advance.
Go back to MaximusHD, this is the only ROM where your new firmware which you flashed will work. None of your nandroid backups will work unless you downgrade your firmware
I tired MaximusHD

Thanks for your help but I tried re-flashing MaximusHD, but no luck.It has the same problems as the other ROMs. The aroma installer will work fine and then the phone will boot and it will go through the full boot logo and then the status bar will come up and I can see battery and time, but the rest of the screen is dark. My radio is 1.13.50.05.31 if that makes any difference, I haven't been able to update it.
I see what I forgot do now. I didn't flash the firmware.zip, weird that the ROM worked anyway. I'll download and flash that and let you know if that fixes everything.
So even after trying the firmware.zip and yoouri instructions to install maximus HD it still wont boot. Im now hboot 1.16 and radio 1.20 Im still S-off and Cid is still T-MOB010

So you could fastboot flash the boot.img and see if that enables your phone to boot.
Then once booted, move the ROM.zip to your phone and reinstall ROM in recovery. (as per instructions) Or sideload the rom in TWRP so that you can reinstall the rom.
Still no luck

After flashing the boot.img It gets stuck at white htc screen, but it did go through android is upgrading. After a few seconds it goes dark but the htc is still visible then it says very faintly process system inst responding and then do you want to close it. Then it reboots again.I cant get the phone to boot. Ive tried side loading and pushing the rom and the aroma install works fine, but it wont boot. Is there anyway I can completey go back to stock. I have nandroids, but they don't work and neither do RUU's

yes, I posted a couple ways

I've done the second way, but you may notice luxandroid installed old firmware before running the RUU.
Thanks but

[Q] Sensation XE not finding wifi any more

Hello,
today i rooted my Sensation XE, installed a new HBOOT 1.27 re-something, S-OFF. However, any custom rom i install can't connect to my local wifi. It shows up once, but once it has the wifi password entered, says its out of range.
I then figured i should update the firmware from 3.32 to 3.33, which I did, but nothing changed.
I tried the ARHD 7.3 rom, a RUU stock one, a CM 9.1 (which doesn't boot at all, just stuck in boot screen), and CM 11 from sultan (doesn't even install in 4EXT, just quits directly) and another "unofficial" CM11.
Any ideas what to do? Before I started, wifi was working great... and I would like it back!
Thank you!

flash the boot.img of the rom via fastboot command
the command is fastboot flash boot boot.img
otherwise i suggest to update yout recovery to the latest version preferably 4ext recovery
then flash the rom again
Thank you for your help!
Actually, it was a veeery stupid mistake: I was taking in and out the SD-Card quite often, so I wasn't putting the metal body around it. When I finally gave up yesterday night to get the wifi to work, i put the cover back on. In that moment, Wifi connected and has been running stable since then.
Didn't know apparently the antenna is in the cover

Doesn't turn on

Hi everyone, i've got a problem with my HTC ONE S.
It doesn't pass the HTC logo, I don't know how to call it.
After 10 seconds of displaying HTC LOGO it keeps rebootin.
I dont know what it is caused by, because I bought it in this condition.
I tried to install RUU, then CM11 by TWRP but it didnt help.
Thanks in advance for help.
REFRESH
Is it s-on or S-off? Cause if you're s-on you have to manually flash kernel after the rom..
It's S-ON, but I was flashing boot.img after installing any ROM.
I was trying RUU, then flashing customs via TWRP (i was using couple versions of TWRP)
But unfortunately nothing helped, still keeps rebooting after 10 sec
What else could I do in this situation?
