1.First download Rom manager from market
2. Rom manager flashes ClockworkMod Recovery
3. Now download that rom and save to sd card
4. Now reboot into recovery from ROM manager
5. Inside recovery navigate to backup and restore. now make backup of your current ROM(Very important) or you can directly make backup from ROM manager
6) When you finish backing up,
7) format data/factory reset
8) From advanced, format data,system,cache
9) Also format cache partition
10) Finally, goto install from zip from SD card
11) Navigate your download rom and confirm by pressing YES
12) Wail till CWM flashes
13) Reboot and wait.........................done....
And never flash radio or hboot if it is not necessary.

@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 !

[Q] TWRP Install Fail

I have an unlocked, rooted 300T with JB which I flashed to 10.4.2.13 using the existing installation of TWRP which has now disappeared when booting+Vol Down. I do not seem to be able to re-install TWRP using fast boot as I get this message.

I have searched extensively and cannot find a similar issue, but without TWRP I cannot then flash a custom ROM...:crying:

Are you installing the jb compatible twrp? what happens when you try and boot recovery?

I have downloaded the 2.2.2 jb blob from here. When I boot into recovery & select RCK I get an android on his back with an exclamation mark in his stomach.

When you used twrp to flash stock it includes recovery which overwrites twrp. Go back to the instructions to fastboot twrp, do so and you should be good.
Good Luck!
Try a new download of twrp!
Reboot your pc, only plugin your asus and no other device, retry fastboot.
Forgot, if on dock remove from dock reboot pc and asus and try again.

Clearing cache maybe? Just a shot in the dark, never seen this one. I can tell you I flashed ota v13 and it blew away my recovery but I was able to get it back easily.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app

After following numerous google links - too many links fastboot, I found one resolution. Another device used on pc and usb drivers installed since last use of unit giving links error. Resolution was remove offending drivers, reboot pc and profit.
Good Luck!

I'm having a bit of a different problem. I have flashed twrp 2.2.2 several times and each time it says okay but it isn't updating it. I still have 2.2.1.5 installed.
Code I'm using...
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery tf300t-jb.blob
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It goes through the install and says OKAY at the end yet it doesn't actually update the recovery blob.

Blew away cache, used fastboot again on twrp.blob and got same install fail error message. However, on power on + vol down RCK now works with TWRP, which is kind of odd, but there you go. Thanks for all the suggestions...

glad you got it fixed

Three things come to mind.
1. Try to flash as twrp directions show; without adb reboot bootloader.
2. Verify you are trying to flash the proper version for your bootloader; ics or jb.
3. If the above two items fail redownload proper version for your boot loader and try again.
Note: The twrp page also shows how to flash with adb!
Good Luck!

I noticed that after I hit reply. I was using all of the correct TF700t TWRP and whatnot. I found this in a google search because it was similar to my issue. It turned out that even though I thought I had unlocked my device, it did not unlock. I fixed that and now I am all set.

Cant install new recovery

Hi, ive been trying to S-off and root my HTC sensation using this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1870233
ive managed to get up to step 2, but unable to flash a new recovery using instructions in this guide and also whilst trying kgs utility…. Im pulling my hair out tbh been at it for hours…
so basically, I unlocked my phone, then have got s-off..but now cant get new recovery to get rooting.
when I use the utility in theafore mentioned guide. It either cant find device or just hangs. When I use the kgs utility, it looks promising until I get the message the system cannot find the bacth label specified - dl_4ext_found
any ideas?

try this
boot your device into bootloader
connect your device into pc via usb(it should say fastboot usb)
now in your pc place the recovery.img in the folder where you have adb and fastboot files
open a command window in that folder and do this command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

hmm ok,
do you have htc drivers installed?
also check if you are using 2.0 usb ports
enable also usb debugging mode
edit:i just inform you also that the recovery can be renamed as recovery.img
i mean when you perform the command do it like this
fastboot flash recovery <the name of recovery>

that's why you couldn't perform the command
if i remember well after S-OFF an unlocked bootloader goes again locked
but there was no need to unlock it again
you could use an eng hboot(juopunutbear) which is unlocked

flash this zip from recovery now

hmm, i think i must be doing this wrong guys. it thought I flashed the recoevery ok, but then when i hit powerdown on the recovery option, it goes to an HTC logo for a while, then i see my vodafone logo etc and then have a clean install of the orginal rom i guess.
Where am i going wrong?

My htc sensation was just rebooting couldnt get into recovery, i had clockwordmod recovery, i thought i lost my phone, i searched on xda and saw ur post, and i fixed my phone thnx to you,
So just wanted to say thank you very much.

[Q] Any possible way for me to successfully flash an RUU?

here's what i did so far
factory reset on clockworkmod
phone will no longer boot
find out only solution is to flash stock ruu through fastboot
right ruu for my hboot and carrier not available
i have roger001 and hboot 1.13 bought from canada fido
i find out i can supercid to install ruu's from other countries
supercid procedure requires me to gain access to sd
i cannot access it (usb debugging not enabled im guessing, a i cant enable it because phone stuck in bootloop)
so now i cannot supercid
so i can not install any ruu without errors
i somehow broke clockworkmod cant get into it either
i need a way to install an ruu by just using the adp fastboot usb
help.... im kind of desperate

Seriously? Not even a single reply? Does that mean that there's absolutely nothing I can do? Give me SOME feedback please.

Can't you just fastboot flash a recovery, boot said recovery, mount usb storage in recovery and put a rom, and then flash that rom? Probably should clear data and system before flashing...

Try miktouch or another stock based ROM so you don't need to flash kernel
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Is there a particular miktouch I should try? Would the below link be good to try?(for some reason having hard time finding)
"cx.com/mycx/share/jzvMU-erEeGfjBICOBql1A/MikTouch-0.7-signed.zip"
And just follow the steps and flash it vs cm9, correct?

Any stock based ROM is easier to flash as you don't need to flash the kernel afterwards through fastboot. Also cm9 is one of the few Roms I have seen issues for people when trying to flash, granted it is one of the better Roms out there, but right now you are just trying to get this working again, so stick with easy.
And I would think that's a good link, but didn't check

On some of my Linux distros I would have to use fastboot flash with a ./ before it would work.

You said you are able to get into recovery? Try factory resetting there

Download this 1.44.1107 S-Off PG59IMG Hboot. Rename it to PG59IMG.zip. Send it to the sdcard, and reboot into the bootloader. It will then be installed automatically. This may or may not solve the problem. Try flashing a ROM now.

dont you need to be locked to do this? i've tried "fastboot oem lock" but it has an error about too many links and the phone shuts off and it shows that it is still unlocked. I tried the PG59IMG.zip anyway and it said parsing and went right back to hboot within a second.. Flashed miktouch rom. Restarted phone, still just stuck on logo screen.

What do you see in the bootloader? Has something changed? Try flashing a recovery this time. The latest Clockworkmod should be fine. Then see what happens.

I don't see any differences in the bootloader. Is there something specific you think may have changed.
Do you want me to try to reflash the cwm 5.0.2.7 version(currently loaded) or a different version(I didn't see a newer version for 4g slide)?

When you say adb working from within recovery, I am able to mount usb storage within recovery and then on pc I can do 'adb devices' and I see the device, is that what you are referring to? Thanks.
