What have you done?
You flashed it success with original ROM, but without success??
I don't even understand what you're trying to tell.
You need to state a few more details.

I have read that if you want to update from 2.3.3 to stuck 2.3.5 and you have the alpharev hboot (6.xxxx) your update crash and the mobile never starts.
Before do the update you have to change the hboot to 2.x version .
It's true? Where can I download the 2.x hboot?
Thanks a lot an sorry for my english.

Can't get to recovery.

So I was going to switch roms on the fly and use flash image gui and found the rom, selected recovery img, and flashed. Success, so i rebooted to recovery. Weird part is, it took me to bootloader. Thinking I hit the wrong thing I moved to recovery and it sends me to fastboot. I assume I did something wrong and have to flash twrp again?

Fastboot reboot recovery

That command doesn't work. To execute a fastboot command you need to have the phone in bootloader right?I tried it from fastboot and from bootloader.

That worked! Im in TWRP now. Thanks so much! Worried I wouldn't be able to boot up but I did. Phew!! Dont do that again... ok then. Is there any way to flash the boot img on the fly without fastboot?

Depends on the Rom. A lot of them you just download Rom to sd card then intall through twrp. No img fastboot needed on a lot of roms when using twrp. What img are u trying to flash?

Idk any. I was trying to flash clean rom 5.1 but it always gets stuck on the boot.
In the current ics version of venom rom the camera refuses to work. I can sometimes open the app but is always a black screen. Any ideas?

Hmm I believe that viper 2.4.2 addresed camera issues. To get that version you have to do ota update and it pushes update to your phone ...so if you have viper 2.4.0 just check for update as you would normally

I did the ota update and I'm running it now. Still no dice with the camera. Starting to get annoying. Can't find anything like this online. Any other ideas?
Edit: I am running elementalx kernel. There's another q in here about the same Rom with the same issue running beastmode kernel. Could this have something to do with it?

Hmm.. I will use my psychic powers to figure out how to fix your issue!
Or you could just tell me some more information.. Hboot, software version, what method are you trying and what exactly is happeneing?

i am currently running viper rom and h boot 2,14 and i am s on
and have super su installed

i wonder if the issue is sd card related as google music isnt seeing my music stored on the phone where as the stock player is

That method won't work with S-on on 2.14 hboot lol
Whoever made that post should have made that clear.
In any case 2.14 has write protection, stopping you from writting the CID and the exploit for 3.18 doesn't work for non-at&T phones.
You would need to make a linux boot disk and run JET tool to downgrade your hboot and then Super CID, then S-OFF then RUU.
Also, that method is for the HTC ONE and you are in EVITA one xl forums... what phone do you have? You're all over the place -_-

Not rooted properly?

I've been reading so much my eyes are square and can't seem to find anything that helps me out. Some of the solutions to similar problems aren't working for me and so I figured I'd ask the community. You've been so helpful in the past! Even if you can point me in the right direction...
So, I have the HTC One X (AT&T type one even though it's with Telus) and I've gone through the steps in the past to unlock the bootloader and install TWRP and have been able to flash custom Rom's, and when in my bootloader screen, it says the following:
*****Tampered*****
*****Unlocked*****
Evita PVT Ship S-on RL
Hboot-2.14.0000
Radio-0.23a.32.09.29
OpenDSP-v31.1.0.45.0815
eMMCboot
Nov 26 2012, 18:37:14:-1
(I have TWRP v2.3.3.1)
Now, I'm wanting to S-Off and get Super CID but I keep getting errors when I try any of the different ways in the forums.
I've tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672284 but I keep getting an error message right at the very beginning.
Basically, I want to S-off so that I can downgrade my touchscreen so I can install some of the other ROM's out there. I've just been doing it by installing the zip and then flashing the boot img.
What am I missing? I feel like somewhere along the way I've missed something that is preventing me from getting S-off and Super CID.
(Please don't flame me!! I have been trying everything I find and can't seem to figure it out. I promise I'm not a noob that hasn't bothered reading! I've been reading and trying for about 10 days so far trying to get this)
Thank you in advance for any help!!

I've checked it. Still don't know what do you want to achieve. And you didn't say which hboot do you have and which ROM. You just want root on your phone? For this you need to have your bootloader unlocked (at HTC Dev site) and then have a custom recovery flashed (latest TWRP for ex) and after that flash the superSU zip.
You can try by using one of these tools that make things easier: WinDroid Universal Android Toolkit or All-In-One Toolkit
You probably had something messed up during the process. After flashing a custom recovery, you can flash theoretically any ROM built for your hboot and most of the ROMs here are pre-rooted (have root included).
TIPS: Use a Windows 7 PC with USB 2.0 ports, Windows 8/8.1 and USB 3.0 have issues on certain configurations.

ROM name should be in the About Phone section. I really don't know what you've done there, rooting does not break camera. It seems you flashed some boot.img during the process as it looks like by that batch file you used. Maybe that has broken something in your ROM.
You could try flashing another ROM to see if the problem still persist
