Extract boot.img from your ROM's zip
Put your phone in fast boot (pull out and put back the battery,vol dwn+pwr, select fastboot, connect to pc usb)
Execute the following commands (from your directory containing fastboot exe)
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot

I am hoping that I can find help out there. My phone will not load past the splash screen.
Over the last few days I have been trying to install a custom rom on my phone. I thought I was on the right track and now I have flashed it but it will not go past the splash screen. I would be grateful for any advice on how to get my phone back functioning. I would even be happy to have it back stock.
So my movements over the last few days have been as follows:
1) HTC DEV unlocked the bootloader
2) Used Hasoon2000's HTC Sensation 4G all-in-one to flash CWM.
3) Then the same tool to copy Prem Root onto the SD card and installed it via CWM.
4) Then used this post here to install JB Miui - http://miuiandroid.com/community/threads/how-to-update-upgrade-miui.15424/
Then when I rebooted it is stuck on the Miui splash screen.
At every stage I felt like things worked well and now I have that sad feeling in my stomach because I have just realized how vital my phone is.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Did u flash boot.img after u flashed the rom? Did u full wipe before flashing the rom? Also with s-on users its recommended to use 4ext recovery and in recovery, enable smartflash.
Where can I find information about boot.img - so that is a no. I am installing 4ext now.

ok, so I have been looking at the boot.img part and I found this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xVl2dBTnmI
I have followed it but still am not having any luck.
Still very lost.

open rom.zip and search for the boot.img
probably it is located in the kernel folder
place it in the folder where you have adb and fastboot files
now boot your device to the bootloader and connect it to pc via usb(in the hboot screen it should say fastboot usb)
in the folder where you have adb and fastboot files open a cmd window and do this command
fastboot flash boot boot.img
then
fastboot reboot
done

as suggested before it is better to have 4ext recovery
and before flashing any rom enable smartflash from it(for S-ON devices)
smartflash it does exactly what i said above
umm i got problem with my phone, my htc go into bootloop mode after i install Revelation rom jb 1.0.0 , it goes to htc logo sreen, then black screen, then back to htc logo screen again
i do format all partition except sdcard but no luck, then i tried to restore my previous rom, it went to bootloop too ,
what should i doo ?
everytime i went into 4ext recovery , there always appear a popup says that "there are pending update to your boot partition, do you want to remove smartflash ?" <-- i dont know what is smartflash, all i do know is my phone is in hboot 1.27 , rooted,s-off, and unlocked
and everytime after i installed any room, it says "backup of your boot partition has failed, please report this bug "
Try entering fastboot via terminal and flash boot.img manually type
fastboot flash boot boot.img
and see how it goes...

Assuming you have a working adb setup installed on your pc (if not follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1152148)
1. connect your phone to pc
2. extract the boot.img of your roms .zip file and place it in your platform-tools folder (or where fastboot is located on your system)
3. type "fastboot reboot-bootloader" (on your phone it should read "fastboot usb")
4. type "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
5. when finished type "fastboot reboot"
and you are ready to go.
Remember since you are s-off, there is no need to have smartflash enabled, so disable it in your recovery...

Wanna ask something again, everytime i went into recovery to install a rom and kernel, it went to boot twice until phone went into boot animation screen. Is it normal ?
All i know is that it would only happened if i i'm on s-on, i'm s-off, and everytime i try to disable smartflash on recovery, it went enabled again

check from the 4ext updater if you have enabled permantly the smartflash

Maybe a wrong kernel? I'm not sure do you need Smartflash enabled from recovery for flashing kernels. Try enabling it.
But if I were you I'd just flash the ARHD ROM which is exactly like stock ROM.

I didn't flash yet any rom. I flash the kernels from commands(fastboot) not from recovery.

I think you should have downloaded the correct RUU.zip for you, and then taken the boot.img from there.
Would be a lot easier if you just flashed the ARHD!
& If you want to connect device; remove battery, hold vol down + power on to boot bootloader
from there select fastboot.
then it should say FASTBOOT USB

Turn off phone
remove SD card
put SD card to another device and connect that to PC
Now you can access SD card. Put ARHD to it. Put SD card back to Sensation, reboot to recovery, enable smartflash and then install ARHD.

Maybe I misunderstood, but unlocking your bootloader wipes everything. You needed to get another rom to boot.
If you installed recovery, do
1. Enter recovery (hold power + vol down on startup, select recovery)
2. In 4ext, mount usb storage, get any Rom and put in your sdcard.
3. Enable smartflash, flash Rom.
Happy to help.

select fastboot and connect it to the pc

first thing windows 8.1->big problem you will face connectivity issues
adb/fastboot folder in your pc not sdcard or phone
the boot.img is located in the rom.zip
extract it from there
about w8 search how to set up adb/fastboot(or htc drivers) in w8 if you face connectivity issues

I fixed it myself and a little help from androidworld forum in the Netherlands.
I tried to fix it with this xda page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861
But I came till end of step 4B. I then tried to flash with the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" but get the message that boot.image was not recognised. The file boot.image was extracted from a ROM zip. Like the threat said put out from the tab kernel/stock the file boot.image.
Than I tried the same thing with a tool KGS Utility v8.0 earlier mentioned in my post, the same that give me the problems.
Startup the tool KGS Utility v8.0 and did step to flash a boot.image. Put the file boot.image in de tab C:\Program Files (x86)\KGS Utility\tools and run it. After flashing closed the tool KGS Utility v8.0 reboot the phone. It took a while but it reboot
Now I am on ViperS 5.2.1 with SebastianFM 1.0.4 kernel
