if you're running hboot 1.14 and 2.20, go into recovery and wipe system, data, cache, etc.
flash the ROM you want, reboot bootloader and flash the boot.img via fastboot
"fastboot flash boot boot.img"
"fastboot reboot"
w/o quotes
I did that same thing, Do you have the international version? if so, then do the above.
If not, you may have overwritten your boot partitions. You'll have to run your device specific RUU. There are a few threads on here with different RUUs and links to outside sources to get the device specific RUU.
I say that you may have over written your boot partitions because ViperX 2.6 is for the international version only. My ROM ViperXL 2.1.2 is the one for us.
you should ruu back to stock then use your unlock token. can't believe you flashed an international after being in here for a little while.
I ran stock ruu and then tried to unlock bootloader, it says it was successful but it still says relocked and now when I tried to do it again with another unlock token it gives me an error message in cmd, same error when flashing recovery. It took me to the prompt on my phone asking if I wanted to unlock and I said I did but still says relocked in bootloader. Also won't let me flash recovery from goo so I can root.

Viper X 2.6.0 and TWRP 2.3.1
I'm a newbie that recently rooted the att one x 2.20 firmware. I currently have boot loop problem that I would most appreciate advice on. I have twrp recovery 2.3.1 flashed. I used the backup function first to backup the rooted stock rom and then attempted to install ViperX 2.6.0. Here are my exact steps and problem in sequence.
1. I placed the ViperX zip file into the main phone directory.
2. I extracted the boot.img file from the Viper zip file and placed it into a desktop directory
3. I loaded fastboot usb and ran the command prompts to flash the boot.image. Getting the following message.
C:\android>fastboot flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (4302 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.631s]
writing 'boot'...
OKAY [ 1.134s]
finished. total time: 1.765s
4. Then I erased the cache based on instructions from onexroot.com
C"\android>fastboot erase cache
erasing 'cache'...
OKAY [0.121s]
finished. total time: 0.121s
5. Next I went into TWRP and used the wipe menu to do factory reset, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache in that order.
6. Go into Install menu and selected ViperX 2.6.0 zip file. Confirmed flash
7. Followed the installation guide - Full installation, non-custom kernel, full wipe.
8. The flash completed. Hit finished button.
9. The phone now boot loops on the HTC Think Brilliant screen with the legal disclaimer. I got back into the TWRP recovery tool and tried to restore my stock rom using the Restore menu. The script runs successfully, but then continues the bootloop at the Think Brilliant screen.
10. I repeated steps 1 to 8 twice but continue to have the bootloop. Am I missing steps to install Viper X or restoring my stock rom?

You are missing something. You are flashing a rom that isn't for your phone. ViperX could of killed your phone, you need to flash ViperXL. Try downloading ViperXL and repeat the steps again.

@sagarda : You forgot a very important thing... He unlocked his phone using HTC dev site. That means the boot is still locked. So the kernel is still preserved from the old ROM, which is incompatible with the ROM he's flashed now, and this is never going to allow the phone to boot up with this new ROM.
So he has to flash boot.img separately from fastboot. I know you were only trying to help, but it's best to only give advice that you have actually tried yourself, otherwise you may end up bricking someone's phone trying to help him.
As for @igorICS, you need to extract boot.img from the ROM zip, and flash it separately using fastboot if you want to boot up this new ROM. And please learn to do some reading before taking the plunge, rather than later...
i pulled battery again and i enered recovery somehow, and recived message,
''can't mount ...''
and i just restored my backup
and i dont wanna **** around with this thing...

Just add a \ between Desktop and boot.img!
I try not to use desktop for cmd purposes...
Just to be 100% sure, follow the steps below:
1. Make a new folder in C:\ called boot
2. Now place the boot.img in the folder you created (C:\boot)
3. Now, using fastboot, type the following at the command prompt (for you, i see that it is C:\Android) ----- fastboot flash boot C:\boot\boot.img
4. Once you get a confirmation of a successful flash, type adb reboot
5. That's it. Enjoy your new ROM !
Hi again guys. (Please note, I have read through just about every conceivable thread)
I feel I'm making headway with regards to attempting to get a rom installed on my desire s...but, there has to be something I'm not doing right, even thought it seems everything progresses as it should.
To get to this stage,I managed to wipe my system...and not have a back up to restore to. So now I just get a white screen with htc. I have an unlocked bootloader, adb and fastboot installed.
I've been trying the official desire s roms,as listed on here.
My cmd screen looks like this while flashing the boot.img:
C:\Users\Dionne\Desktop\HTC FILES>fastboot devices
HT13STJ37846 fastboot
C:\Users\Dionne\Desktop\HTC FILES>fastboot flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (2140 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.359s]
writing 'boot'...
OKAY [ 0.359s]
finished. total time: 0.718s
C:\Users\Dionne\Desktop\HTC FILES>
I have then tried both, the" fastboot reboot" option, and rebooting via the bootloader. Only one one occasion have I had a progress bar on the phone, then once I reboot, nothing happens.
The last rom I tried to flash was the pacman one, I had a VERY brief progress bar that ran vertically up the right hand side of the screen. I then rebooted, and the screen went from the white htc one, to a dark, but illuminated one, and there it stays.
With the rom I download, I go to the containing download folder, then open with 7zip, and then drag the boot file over to my htc file folder which contains,adb, and fastboot file needed. I then hold shift,and right click on the boot file to open a command window, and then proceed with the commands.
What am I doing wrong? there has to be something, but I just cant fathom it out.
My phone is s-on, bootloader unlocked. adb, and fastboot installed.
I cant do anything apart from boot into the 4EXT recovery.
I do a full system wipe, cache, and dalvik before I try to boot another rom, but just don't get anywhere.
Can anyone shed some light as to what I am doing wrong?
Thankyou.
Read step 4 thoroughly Link
4) Open the rom (.zip file) you downloaded in step 1 and put the ''boot.img'' file in ''C:\android-tools'' (depending on where ur adb files are is)
If you followed this tutorial correctly, you already copied your desired rom your onto your MicroSD card.
Now we boot into the bootloader again, this time we select recovery.
Go to: wipe | format>and select: wipe data/factory reset (this may take a while), then select wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache(if you are on 4ext just select wipe all except sd).
Go back to main menu in EXT4 recovery and select ''install from sdcard'' select ''Reaper_V2.1.ZIP''(rom of your choice). After the rom is installed turn your phone off again.
Boot into recovery, connect your phone to your computer and select fastboot on your phone.
Go to start->run-> type cmd and press enter. A command prompt will now appear.
*the rest of it is in the link, read and type the command in to flash the boot.img "
Which roms have you tried? Only cm10/jb based roms?
Then you might have a non-Sony panel, check the thread in the general section. If that's the case, then any sense rom would work, or you could try the 82n kernel from andromadus.
If you've already tried installing sense roms and it doesn't work, the only thing I can suggest is to try doing "fastboot erase boot" just before "fastboot flash boot boot.img".
MASSIVE thanks to you rain987. That was the missing part, I supernoobishly overlooked placing the rom zip file onto my sd card.
I am now making a back up,and having a tinker around on reaper.
Thankyou very very much.
How were you flashing ROM without having it on the SD Card??
Did you assume that fastboot flash is the only thing required to flash a ROM?
What were you doing in recovery?
Did you succeed in flashing it?
?!

First off, I'd use TWRP since it's compatible with all ROMs and CWM has very little compatibility with our phone.
To do that, download TWRP 2.3.3.1 Check MD5
boot to bootloader/fastboot
then fastboot flash recovery twrpfilename.zip
then wipe cache, dalvik, system, factory reset in TWRP
Flash rom.
If you are on hboot 1.14, you then need to extrract the boot.img from the ROM's zip and fastboot flash boot boot.img
As for the not able to mount SDCard, did you factory reset in the bootloader?
Hey my friend thnks for the reply. I'll try all of these right now. If u can please follow the thread, I might have more questions...Thnks again!
I've reache the point where i mount again my sd card and making all thw wipe things...
I' ve installed the rom but after it says that is succesfully installed and rebooting it shows the htc logo and after that...nothing!
The device turns off(or at least i think it is)black screen, no charge little orange light...But when it comes to this mode, I can hear the soun of the pc like when u do connect a device!
What am I doing wrong?
And yes I have hboot 1.14. What is the correct sequence in the actions????

Following the instruction (http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_pyramid ), I wiped my data/factory and cache partition. The install of the CM zip has been completed. After reboot my HTC still on the splash screen of Cyanogen 9.
What did I miss?? Do I've install the google apps may be? Is not so clear in the documentation

For installing cm9 o newer, you must be in the 3.32 o 3.33 firmware, that why i asked the version of android you were before flashing.

Now my HTC sense runing under 3.33.401.6 (or 3.6) firmware rom from HTC and the WIFI doesn't work anymore.
Any advise are welcome

1-Relock your bootloader again, this command "fastboot oem lock"
2-Flash your phone again with the proper RUU for your phone if you don't have supercid.
I'm waiting your feedback.
Ok problem solved
In fact, I didn't download well the file recovery.img, because I did a right click following a save as on the link. So I've got the the web page not the good file. My PC told me it was a HTML file. So I click with my left button on the link
https://www.dropbox.com/s/6ybcxyrpzv88uik/recovery.img
And a different page with the good file opened
After that, I could Enable 4EXT Temporary smartflash , I put a custom rom which booted well.
Thanks for your support.....
Hi Guys,
Hoping you can help me with this.
I was originally running Slimkat 4.4.4 and had the latest TWRP installed.
I downloaded the file for LPX13D and extracted all of the files right down to the Flash-all.bat and the images for bootloader, radio, and the system.
I ran the Flash-all.bat, and it installed everything successfully. The device booted, and voila, I am on 5.0 now.
The problem now, is that when I reboot into recovery, I am instead met with the little android guy laying on his back, with a red triange/exclamation point in his chest.
No problem, I say to myself. I'll just flash TWRP manually.
So I go to the bootloader, and try the command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (renamed to make it faster to type.)
It goes through the motions, and says it was successful.
But when I go to recovery, it's the same red triange guy still.
I tried pressing volume up, power+volume up, etc. No dice. After about 30 seconds, it reboots on it's own back to system.
When I connect it to the Nexus Root Toolkit, and click on Flash recovery, and then choose TWRP latest, I get a window that pops up that tells me :
______
File Dependency Download
Status: Stock Kernel: Not Present - Need to download (this is in red)
Then a button that says "Download + Update All File Dependencies"
So what's my best option here? Should I let the NRT update the dependencies?
Try to flash cwm and tell me what happens

I then selected recovery, and lo and behold, it worked! I'm in CWM.
So then i flashed TWRP again, and now it's working properly too.
I don't know why it refused to work the first time, but now it seems to be okay. How strange.
Thanks for your time and help. I appreciate it.

Twrp is not optimized yet well like cwm is for andorid l
Recovery won't work AT ALL no matter what you do until you reflash a KK userdata.img, which also wipes all data in the process.

I flashed the new developer preview for 5 minutes or so then went to revert. Recovery wouldn't boot not matter what I flashed, until I flashed a KK userdata.img. So it seems like the new developer preview changes the internal storage/data partition more then the old one.

Don't try getting around it. Nothing to do with anything else.

What? CWM is outdated.

Well, Twrp worked until I rebooted and then tried going back to it. Then bam! back to the error dude with the triangle.
So, I flashed cwm again, and that one seems to be persisting after a reboot, so I guess I'm stuck with cwm for now....
I also flashed the boot.img and the supersu update to get root working, and it seems to be going well now.
Cwm tells me that I may have lost root immediately after flashing the supersu update, but when I reboot, root is actually working. What a weird bunch of crap to go through.

Flash userdata.img and your TWRP will work properly.

It isn't whether its persisting or not. TWRP just won't boot properly until you reflash a KK userdata.img. I don't know why CWM would even boot up, nor why anyone would want to really use it anyways.

It says that because CWM is outdated.

Okay:
So I extract the userdata from a 4.4.4 stock image, yes? If not, can you point me in the direction of the correct userdata.img
I assume the correct order and syntax is:
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastbook flash recovery twrp.img
Fastboot reboot-bootloader
Select recovery
Wipe data/Factory reset, and then and reboot system.
Set up phone as normal.
Have I overlooked anything?

Yeah. Don't need to boot into recovery and wipe data since flashing a .img with fastboot while in bootloader erases it first then flashes. Just make sure you backup your stuff, including internal storage, off to a PC first if you have anything important.
