[Q] My phone can't start!

Hey guys!
I've tried to root my phone (it was sucessful), but a error has come. When i'm starting my phone, it freezes when the startup sound, og "HTC - Quietly brilliant" comes. I can open HBOOT --> Fastboot, and the progams inside Fastboot. I've tried to reinstall the newest CWM vesion, and other. Now it is 1 week and 3 days ago, and it still doesn't work, so i have near given up.
Anyone that have suggestions on what is wrong and what I can do?

Did this problem appear after you had flashed something? Need more info.

You probably haven´t installed Firmware 3.32 which is required to run ALL ICS ROMS..
you also need to Super-CID your phone.
Follow This Guide step by step.

If you want proper help you should list the EXACT steps you have performed...

Ok you said you rooted but you didn't mention if flashed a Rom if any and what is your hboot number

[Q] I am having trouble with my htc desire s

Hello to everyone specially to those who are very knowledgeable on hacking HTC Desire S.
I have manage to root my phone HTC desire s with an HBOOT version 2.00.002 the problem is it is not s-off. I want to make it S-off.
My currently installed rom is reaper v3.0.0 i want to change it to ice cream sandwich roms
My questions are.
Is it possible to go back to HTC Desire S original ROM i am from Philippines part of Asia
Why do i always stuck on HTC boot screen when I installed other ROM. I am really freaking out guys. I tried to install fallout v.3.0.0
Do I really need to be s-off to install other roms? I want to be s-off but i found some tutorials here that i really cant make to work. I am sure I followed the instructions carefully but it does not work for me.
Please help me guys I want to use my full potential of my phone. Thank you.

Google it, or search the forum for it:
"you have to flash boot.img through fastboot"
ANY guide for flashing ROMs will tell you that, if you unlocked with HTCDev tool. Quite hard to miss.

Based on what i read i think u will need to s-off to flash or even root.(maybe someone else can give u a better guide.)
It is best if you could mention which guide u used and then post what error u encountered at which point.

Judging by him able to root HBOOT 2.00 and running custom ROM, but using S-ON - the only option is that he unlocked by HTCDev. But of course, as it usually happens, he managed to skip reading important parts of the guide that mention what I wrote in the previous post.

this is what i did to my phone
This is what I did to my phone (exactly)
1. Unlock bootloader on HTCDEV.com
2. i dont know exactly if i installed hboot 2.00.002 but that's my version now
3. install a custom rom called reaper v3.0.0
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525100 << i followed this tutorial guys.
now what exactly what i want to do is
1. go back to my old htc phone. I want my HTC Desire S OS back. the original one but it seems i cant because when i installed an HTC rom, (or whatever you call it) my phone hangs up on the bootscreen "htc" and i dont know why.
guys im starting to freak out i dont know if i really messed up with my phone
somebody help me please

Read Q&A section. At the top there are at least 2 threads that deal with returning to stock, and one is pointing towards the other.

Are you able to boot to your recovery?
If you did not untick "Fastboot" in settings. You will need to take off your battery for 5 seconds, then put it back and then, press your volume down button and your power button at the same time. Press for like 5 seconds and wait to boot into recovery mode.
Follow step number 5... try flashing the boot.img...

[Q] Why is my HTC One x (PROTOTYPE) stuck on ICS?

Why is my HTC One x (PROTOTYPE) stuck on ICS?
Hey guys, This is my first post ever on XDA so please forgive me if I sound like an idiot
I got hold of a HTC One x which was already had an unlocked bootloader, rooted and had CWM recovery installed. I was told that I have a prototype version of the one x. Anyway that is not issue. when I got the phone it was running android version 4.0.4 HTC Sense version 4.1 and I checked software update. The 3.14.401.27 OTA update was available so I proceeded with the update and after the reboot I found my phone stuck in a bootloop and the only way for me to sort it out was by restoring my nand back up from CWM. I really wanted the new Sense 5 UI and android jelly bean so I downloaded:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_hTC_Asia_TW_3.14.709.20_Rad io_5.1204.162.29_release_292865_signed.exe
My CID was HTC__621 thats why I downloaded that ruu but after flashing it not was I only stuck in a bootloop but also when I entered recovery mode it was just a blank black screen with the back lights on. I even flashed different versions of CWM recovery and TWRP which gave me the same black screen so I flashed the stock recovery.img which also gave me the same black screen. I thought me maybe a different Ruu would resolve this issue so I used 'JBFWTOOL21' to change my CID to '11111111' this allowed me to flash:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.27_Radi o_5.1204.162.29_release_298897_signed.exe
&
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.31_R_Ra dio_5.1204.162.29_release_302015_signed.exe
After trying both these ruu's I still found my device stuck in a bootloop. Next I downloaded 'Endeavoru_CustomRUU' this contained a 'rom.zip' which I belive was a jelly bean rom and said it would update my image version to '3.14.401.31' after flashing this ruu, my phone booted up past the 'HTC Quietly Brilliant' screen but into a black screen but I could hear the boot sound and knew it booted up but it still gave me a black screen. barre in mind this was the only rom that booted up and didn't get stuck in a bootloop but the downside was I had no picture on the screen it was literally pitch black with the backlight on when it went past the 'HTC Quietly Brilliant' boot screen. I didn't even see the one x boot animation. I could only hear the boot up sound and once it was booted up the notification LED would flash I was receiving network settings from my operator. That was about it. I booted into recovery to see wether that worked but unfortunatelly it was also still giving me a black screen. The only thing I could boot into without a problem was 'power button + volume down' which booted into bootloader in which I chose 'fastboot' to flash all these roms.
At this point I thought my device was soft bricked so I gave it to my friends father who happened to really good with his IT skills. He managed to change my device's CID from 'HTC__621' to 'HTC__001' after doing so he downloaded this ruu and flashed it:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.17.401.2_Radi o_2.1204.135.20_release_274900_signed.exe
This ruu turned out to work perfectly fine with my device. Everything functioned once again, the device was able to boot into recovery and boot normally without a hassle. I also discovered that this was the rom that I received my phone with which put me back to the start on android 4.0.4
I was really annoyed with the fact that I was stuck on ICS so I flashed the MaximusHD 21.1.0 rom and its boot.img which put me into a bootloop again. I also tried other custom roms such as Revolution and SD secxces which all put my phone in a bootloop even though I flashed their boot.img kernels. I knew that I required a hboot 1.33.0000 or above in order to flash jb roms so I used 'JBFWTOOL21' once again before flashing these custom roms to update my hboot from 1.12.0000 to 1.33.0000. so all these bootloops still occourd after doing all this and I just had to return back to ICS. barre in mind I only tried flashing JB roms as I want sense 5 so I don't know if a custom ics rom would work on my device as I havent tried it yet but I know for a full fact that none of the jb roms work on my device.
For those who are wondering here, I uploaded some pictures of my device just check the attachments. It has all the information you may want to know about my device (HTC One X PROTOTYPE).
I really hope someone can help me update to jelly bean and get sense 5 as I am frustrated from failing and being stuck in bootloops
If you read all of this I honestly appreciate it and Thank you for it, I hope you can help me!

Sorry to say it after you've written such a lengthy post, but you're in the wrong forum. This is the HTC One XL (at&t One x) forum, they're completely different phones. You'll need to ask in the HTC One X forum, we don't know enough about your phone here, sorry.

HTC One SV just starting to recovery/bootloader

Hello everyone,
I've got a few HTC One SV devices in front of me, which got the "Robot Voice Bug". Since that is a problem of the 4.2.2 Android I decided to "downgrade" them to a previous Version.
To do this I have to S-Off the devices, which is the step I so far failed to do.
I am not at home and only got a Win10 laptop available with an antiX Live-USB stick.
After installing VenomSV 1.5 on the first device (K2_UL) I decided to give it a try and used mooonshine to S-Off it.
It did go through the testing but got stuck at moonshining (ERROR: Don't drink and shine (if I remember correctly, it tried to moonshine 10 times and stopped afterwards)).
Now it is just booting to the Quietly Brilliant screen with the red text underneath.
But I am still able to get into the TWRP Recovery. I tried to wipe it and install VenomSV again, but without effect (I can go through the installation until I have to restart).
I've also got a TWRP backup of the stock system, but TWWRP doesn't recognize it.
Is there any chance for reviving this device?
And even if not:
Is there a way to downgrade without S-Off? Or maybe a hint what could have gone wrong moonlighting the device?
Some system information:
K2_UL PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.01.0000
RADIO-0.12.40.00.14_2
If you do need any more information feel free to ask.
Thank you in advance for any answer,
maj0r_tom
PS: Sorry for the bad english.
