Since it's a HTC phone, it has S-OFF and S-ON, Is your Phone S-OFF?
Then you could flash a Rom without flashing Boot.IMG using PC
Is it S-ON?
Then you need to seperate the Boot.img and flash it using your PC with CMD.
To check if your S-OFF or On you need to reboot into your bootloader and read it from there.

procedure?

Remove the Battery when your phone is off, Put it back on, Press Vol Down & Power Button at the same time, Then you enter HBoot Menu, now read the First Sentence and it says something about The Device Name and S-OFF or S-ON.
If your S-OFF you don't need to flash Boot.img.
Flash ROM first Before Flashing Boot.Img
To flash Boot.img, Seperate the boot.img and put it somewhere you can find back. (For example the C Partition on your PC)
Turn your phone on HBoot Then Click fastboot
Plug your phone into your PC with a Micro USB
Then Enter CMD (When you have all the flash tools)
Search the Boot.img and type : Fastboot flash boot c:\boot.img

how to flash using cmd?

You never told us Your Recovery also which version are you using + Did you Do a full wipe before flashing?

Are you clearing the caches
Did you remember to clear all the caches and system? If you don't the system will never boot, but not freeze either. It the system is freezing there is likely an incompatibility in my experience.

You Don't need to clear Cache or System, If you Flash From Stock (This is not for all devices).

ok

Good point. It would be a more useful one if you knew this happened to be a device you don't need to do that with.
However, this is the advice everyone should get before flashing a rom and since this particular flash's failure has symptoms indicating the cache corrupted it, I don't see why you would try moving a step backwards. You yourself stated a wipe should be performed, which would include the caches and system if all options were selected.
Back up the device again and clear the cache and system, which is already inoperable and see if the clean flash clears up system boot problem.

(lol) You said you had S-OFF, Well That not so, You have HTC dev Unlock that means S-ON, Which means you have the Manually Flash Boot.img.
1.Unlock your bootloader and flash a custom recovery (CWM or 4ext)
2.Download the rom zip file you are willing to flash to your PC.
3.Extract the the boot.img from inside the zip file (do not extract the whole rom)
4.Put the zip file in your sdcard.
5.Boot into recovery and do a full wipe (wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, format system)
6.Flash rom (install zip from sdcard)
7.Reboot into bootloader again and plug the phone to the PC.
8.You need to be in fastboot usb (if you see HBOOT USB PLUG in the phone, just press power to toggle)
9.Open a cmd/terminal and navigate to where the boot.img file is located.
10.Type: fastboot flash boot boot.img If you don´t how to do that, watch this video (it is in spanish, thou you can follow it without listening to the instructions)
11.Reboot and now you should be enjoying your custom rom

i had already unlocked bootloader ...Means first i have to download the rom and extract boot.tmg somewhere else like in c: then i have to keep dat zip file (without boot.img) in sd card and flash it using recovery mode (without file boot.img) ? and then what..? i have to reboot the phone???or how to then connect to pc..? coz i thing phone will not start without "boot.img"...so how do i connect to pc?? and firstly i have to flsh via phone (withour boot.img) and then connect via pc and flash "boot.img"..?? then ???? what i have to do further..????? this tym it will not stuck na???
thankyou

No it won't Like i said Flash the ZIP (ROM) Before with or without Boot.IMG (Doesn't do anything) But you have to extract the Boot.img before and placing it somewhere, where you can flash it with CMD or whatever Apple or linux uses.
Then flash it in CMD after Flashing the ZIP with Recovery.
With the Following Command Fastboot flash boot c:\boot.img (When placed in the C Disk)
Remember you need to be in Fastboot mode Not in HBOOT mode that means you have to Click one time on the power button.

To flash this do we have to be in any earlier version?
Bcoz i tried flashing but its stuck in boot animation.
I DId al wiping(data,cache,dalvik) ..
Did fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot.
But still the problem remains..
Any suggestions
Thanks
If you do a full wipe before flashing it's not relevant which ROM or version you are coming from. Maybe you have wrong hboot.
Is your device s-off?
Sent from my Desire S using XDA App
no mine in still S-ON thru htcdev but rooted,using cm7.1..wanna try best ROM based on sense UI...hence wanted to flash...now i have observed one thing whichever the ROM i flash it its not happening...it stays in boot animation..earlier i tried CM7.1,MIUI WP7 ...My hboot version is 2.00.002
Unlocking thru htcdev allows to flash a ROM with stock kernel only. For freeful flash-rom-manipulating S-Off is needed. Try flashing any ROM with non-stock kernel led me only to the screen with HTC logo.

With HTCDev unlock you have to flash the kernel separately.
Which means:
1) open WhateverROMyouHaveDownloaded.zip
2) extract the boot.img that you will find inside
3) flash the ROM as usual (with full wipe)
4) Do not restart your phone yet, because you will be stuck in a HTC logo screen (bootloop)
5) from the recovery power menu reboot to bootloader
6) connect the phone to PC
7) flash the boot.img with the fastboot command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot {path to the file on your computer}\boot.img
8) reboot and enjoy your new ROM
P.S. this is a nasty limitation of HTCDev unlock, to avoid downgrade to a previous version (there are two guides in the Index), S-OFF with Revolutionary, flash Eng bootloader 0.98.2000 or 2.00.2002 and flash custom ROMs in one step
do u want me to put on "Team viewer after flashing a non-stock rom" ?i can do that man...
amidabuddha.....
I have done all the things what u said but with a difference.....Extracted ROM.zip put on the root of the SD card and and did fastboot flash boot boot.img...
If i extract the BOOT.IMG on the computer and den flash will it make any difference???
i have flashed boot.img seperately like u said it worked..
Thanks man

[Q] Bricked, HTC BOOTLOOP, No RECOVERY, Begging You

hi all xda community !
So here is the situation :
HBOOT Screen :
***UNLOCKED***
pyramid pvt ship s-off rl
HBOOT-1.27.0000
Radio-11.21.3504.13_2
OpenADSP-v02.6.0.226.00.0104
eMMC-boot
Symptom:
I'm Stuck in a bootloop after i flash the 3.24 firmware and the Elegancia ROM.
First Time the roms boot normaly, then i reboot with the USB Cable attach.
And here come the BootLoop
Try to go to recovery, but bootLoop too.........
So I can go in Hboot, i can do FASTBOOT command and that all.
I try to flash CWM from fastboot -- > Ok for flash but wont go in recovery..
Try to flash 1.17 firmware then flash ROM.zip from 1.35Ruu Europe release --> Bootloop
Try to Flash 3.24 Ruu Same BOOTLOOP..
So what can I do community ?
What Solution i have ?
Why i cant flash a recovery since i Have S-OFF ??
MAYBE :
- Maybe i flash a Ruu who was Corrupt
- Maybe the radio don't match the Ruu i Tried to flash
- Maybe i'm just a simple mind guy
It seems that the 3.24 Firmware from SebastianFM with hBoot unlock have some problem, cause it seems that i'm not the only one who got several problem after flash this Firmware.

I got you. Actually you do not have any custom recovery installed. Actually if you flash any RUU it will wipe your recovery partition and install stock recovery. So first you flash a custom recovery. I know you tried to flash CWM.But you got bootloop. Did you delete the file PG58IMG.zip from sdcard after flashing CWM ???? Please redo the following steps.
STEPS TO FOLLOW:
1. Download recovery v5.0.0.8 for the Sensation here .
2. Copy the PG58IMG file into the Root folder of your SD card (The main Folder of your Memory Card)
3. Turn off your phone.
4. Remove the battery.
5. Wait a minute.
6. Put the battery again.
7. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
8. The phone will boot into bootloader.
9. Press Volume up to Accept when it asks" Do you want to start the update"
10. Press Power Off to Reboot back to android after installation is successful (normal screen with homescreen)
11. It may not boot . Do not worry because you may have wiped out evrything.
12. Power off your phone.
13. Delete PG58IMG from your memory card .
14. Download your favorite custom ICS ROM.
15. Put it on the root of your SDCARD.
16. Remove the battery.
17. Wait a minute.
18. Put the battery again.
19. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
20. The phone will boot into bootloader.
21. Select "Recovery" by pressing Volume Down Key.
22. Press Power button after selecting Recovery.
23. Your phone will reboot into clockworkmod recovery.
24. Wipe system, boot, cache, data , and dalvik cache
24. Install your ROM from SDCARD.
25. Wait at least 7 to 10 minutes for first boot
26. Your phone will be normal now.
NOTE:
******* You must be SuperCID to do the above. Please also note , from your preveous post, I understand that you have V3.24 Firmware. Remember only ICS rom will work with this firmware. So do not flash Gingerbread ROM.**********
hi help is appreciate,
`So i tried to follow your step 3 times . One with 1.17 Firmware 3.12 & 3.24.
every time after flashing the recovery, i reboot and when i go to recovery the phone go into boot loop.

Which ROM you want to flash ??
Why did you try all three firmware ???? You should choose your firmware according to your ROM you want to flash.
You may get boot loop after flashing recovery as there might be no rom installed.
So as I said after flashing recovery you should power off your device. Then boot into bootloader by the preveous method. ( Step 3 to 7 ).Selct recovery by volume down key. Then press power button. You will be in recovery. And flash your ROM. But your ROM should match with the firmware.
Ok but How could i flash a ROm if i can't go to recovery ...
Ok maybe you miss understand, i got boot loop when i want to go to recovery too
Please tell me what ROM you want to flash. Post the link here. And once again you give the details of your boot loader screen. Do you have fastboot/adb set up on your PC?

So, Let fix the recovery first.
Download this attatched recovery (4Ext Touch).
MD5 Checksum : d31d7df8d275f7234416af6a2e8b1c73
Check the md5check sum after download. If it matches , go to the next step else redownload.
Put the downloaded recovery.img in the directory of your fastboot binary.
Connect your phone with pc via usb cable.
Reboot your phone into bootloader.
Open fastboot command from your pc.
Now type the following command in fastboot.
" fastboot flash recovery recovery.img "
After flashing type " fastboot reboot"
Now try to go to recovery. If it is successfull then I will tell you the ROM flashing part.
Please come on gtalk . My gtalk id is musarraf172
ok i'm on gtalk wait for ya
so i'm still in the BOotLoop mode.
i've tried almost everything who was in the forum.
i'm aware of the noob style problem(Firmware not updated, still got PM58IMG.zip in SDcard, wrong Rom--firmware etc ..) and i'm not in this case !!!!
I think the device is brick but maybe someone with good knowledge, and experience can help me.
For now i got the last Hboot, i can flash recovery from fastboot , the command return OK but recovery wont boot.
Ruu flashing run nice with no problem but don't Boot (.exe and PM58IMG.zip).
when i try to unlock bootloader (who is already mark S-OFF but just for try)
with the HTCDEV method i'm stuck on the Unlock bootloader screen and i can't click YES.
it seems that my data partition have disappear ...
I here if you need more information.

if yo can go in fastboot your likley not bricked.
you can always flash the original or similar ruu (not a rom) you phone came with in fastboot.
so you will go to stock with your hboot and recovery and to see if it boots.
then do the whole process over. s-off, then root.
then check your mid and cid if its supported.
and only then update to ics.
btw whats the type of phone? branded or og htc
my phone is from vodaphone so branded.
What do you mean by flashing your original or similar Ruu ?
The one coming with the phone out of box ?
i flash via command, .exe or PM58IMG.zip ?
i don't write my original cid is it bad ?

yes the rom the phone came with or close to it (any with recent ota`s).
always flash the ruu.exe because it wil recover the hboot, radio and recovery to stock. (zipfiles can be easily corrupted)
so go in fastboot usb (via power and volume button) and run the ruu.exe
then s-off/root the device
when s-off you should be able to install recovery within the original rom like cwr or ext4 updater tool, backup, then check your mid and cid, get a correct zipfile for the ics firmware update, flash arhd (it includes the lastest ext4 recovery). then change roms if you like.
you then also can check if the phone is working correctly.
if you already changed to supercid, i think its oke.
if not, on the forum there is al list of cid`s from different countrys and brands.
also there is al list of originals ruu the devices came with.
i assume you have done custom roms before ics came out?
so the cupercid was applied correctly?
i never supercid my devices (on a personal note)
and always flashed the testroms (to get the latest firmware) with no probs.
but if your branded its mandatory.
i've already flash 3 Ruu from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559
and all finish in a bootloop with no stock recovery... almost all Ruu run fine with no alert
ruu i flashed already :

yes i did, but that didnt change anything
Try to find the executive file of ROM (.exe) and run it to reflash your phone from PC. That the way I did with my One X, hope that will help. Remember to relock the phone before flashing.

i tried it but it failed because of image version of the latest Rom Update Utility( 1.08.1400.6 ) which is lower than my phone image version(1.10.1400.1.).
maybe you can go to htc service center and get them flash it back for you, they won't charge you anything (in my country), just say you don't know what happen...

i still didnt find any solution yet...
If you have the RUU.exe file (as you said), lets try :
- run the exe file.
- when the installation preperation process completed , keep the process wait there and find the temperature rom extracted somewhere in PC.
- copy the rom to other place.
- find the boot.img and recovery.img in firmware.zip file (in the zip rom that you just have)
- unlock your phone.
- press volume down + power to go to bootloader.
- connect phone to PC and use fastboot to flash boot.img file.
- continue to flash recovery.img
- relock the phone by fastboot oem lock
- flash rom.zip by fastboot.
Hope that could help. That is the way I did for my friend One X+.

So, the problem should be HBoot version, I guested. You may try to search and find if there are any solutions to re-install Hboot, otherwise, send your phone to HTC service center is last solution you should do.
Unbrick htc x920e
hi everyone i finally succeed to unbrick my htc butterfly. Thx for all the support u guys brought to this post.
This is how i did it:
1. boot in recovery mode and wipe eveything (factory reset, cache, dalvik-cache and system)
2. Flash any x920e custom rom :
In my case i couldnt mount the sdcard from the recovery so i select the option "Install zip from sideload " instead of "Install zip from sdcard" abd and i used ADB Toolkit GUI Shell (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1800335) to flash the custom rom.
Once in sideload mode u can use this command to flash the custom rom:
Code:
adb sideload rom_name.zip
After the phone reboot it was still stucked at the boot logo so i proceeded to step 3
3.Reboot in bootloader and put the phone in "fastboot USB" mode
4. Open the custom rom zip file and extract the "boot.img"
5. Use the command shell to flash the extracted boot.img using this command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
6.Reboot

Bootloop (S-ON/No Recovery) :(

Hello,
I have a big problem with my old HTC Sensation.
I tried nearly everything out of other topics, but nothing worked....
The story: Suddenly my Sensation rebooted and from then on it is stuck in an endless bootloop.
The bad thing is, that it was stock/S-ON at this moment.
Informations about the phone:
***UNLOCKED***
Pyramid PVT Ship S-ON RL
HBOOT: 1.27.0000
Radio: 11.24A.3504.31_M
-> I am able to install RUUs (3.33), but after installation i am still in the bootloop
-> I am able to unlock/relock the bootloader
-> I can install a recovery via fastboot, but can't boot into it => bootloop
Maybe you have got a hint to bring the Sensation back to life.
Thank you!
Since your bootloader is unlocked, you can use fastboot to do stuff. Most of the HTC Sensations have a HBOOT version that causes bootloops when flashing roms because their kernel doesn't seem to install properly when flashing roms. The ROM should consist of a file inside the zip, usualy in the kernel folder or in the root of the zip that is called boot.img. That is the kernel. First of all, you need to download the tools that have the fastboot and drivers included. Then unzip all of the contents into a folder. Run and install the drivers that that have come in the folder. Then go into the fastboot and adb folder. Shift rightclick onto the empty space of the folder and click open command window here. Then boot your phone into bootloader mode. You can do this using power button and volume down while your phone is off. Once youre in fastboot mode, navigate to fastboot using up and down volume keys. Then press the power button. Plug in your phone to your computer using your HTC sync cable. Then in the adb and fastboot folder, copy your roms boot.img into the folder. Then in the command window, type 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' without the quotation marks. It should say sending and then writing. The process should take no longer than 20 seconds. Once done, restart your phone. Wolla, your rom should now be working properly!

actually he can't even boot to the recovery in order to flash any rom
so what's the point of flashing the boot.img manually?
You can use Sensation all in one kit v3 to unlock boot loader, read this thread for more detail
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1497404
after unlocking boot loader, then go to this thread to download 4EXT recovery then use kit to flash recovery, remember to download image file, not zip file

boot to recovery, then enable smart flash and flash any cook ROM you want. Remenber to wipe everything after having enable smart flash then flash cook ROM
good luck

actually first has to wipe and then enable smartflash
Thank you for your ideas!
But unfortunattly i tried most of the things.
@ kevinspl2000
I think normaly the RUU would also install the Boot Image.
But I also tried to manualy flash the boot.img out of the RUU via fastboot, but no success.
I am not able to flash a Custom ROM, because of no Recovery...
@stripeqn
The point is that I am not able to boot to Recovery...
I can flash the Recovery via fastboot, but I am not able to boot into it.
I tried different versions of CWMR and 4EXT but no success...
When I click on recovery, it just shows the HTC Logo and bootloop again

I think I have a solution. When I installed my custom recovery at first, I also got bootloops when trying to go into the recovery. What I did, is I refalshed the recovery, and then did fastboot erase cache. It wipes all of the cache, and fixed my bootloop before. Try that and see how we get on...

Black screen after flashing a new rom

Hello, I had a MIUI ROM and I flashed a new version , doing the wipes and flashing it, but after the reboot, I see the HTC logo and nathing else, only the black screen.
In my bootloader appears "unlocked", saga pvt ship s-on rl, hboot 2.00.0002.
I tried to flash others ROMs and it happens the same, black screen after the HTC logo.
Thank you.
Did u flash the boot.img after flashing the roms? Since ur s-on u need to flash a rom then boot straight into bootloader and flash the boot.img then reboot. The boot img is inside the rom zip.

Can you tell me how to do it? I read something about that but I don't know how to do it.
I had the same problem today but the flash fixed it.

The Linux / ubuntu method
I had the same problem and followed the advice of the previous post this is how I did it:
1. First I made sure the fastboot programme was in my home directory
2. Then using a compression program I extracted the boot.img file from the "cm-11-20141214-UNOFFICIAL-saga.zip" rom. I also extracted it to my home directory (same directory as the fastboot program)
3. After installing the Rom and Gapps on my phone via TeamWin Recovery I immediately rebooted into the bootloader. and selected fastboot
4.I connected the phone via usb cable to my laptop.
5.On my laptop I opened a terminal for commandline
6. I entered the following command:
"sudo /home/simon/fastboot flash boot boot.img"
After the flash was successful I rebooted and CM11 is now working. I suppose the windows meathod follows similar principles.
Or use fastboot adb on windows.

I'm totally unable to make it works. I have the "waiting for device" message, I'm reading tutorials but nothing works.
