I rooted on HTC ONE SV
Moonshine s-off
k2cl
Boost mobile
everything was fine till i installed a apk to control system settings then it went into boot loop
i've "adb flashed boot.img from a boost rom and sideloaded it threw CMWrecovery.
It's been flashing system for an hour and a half.
is there a boot, recovery and rom that will fix this problem, even if its stock.
all keep seeing is the recovery and boot.img
i want to put everything back the way it was stock or not
WHAT SHOULD I DID I'M AT A LOSS !!!
Please Help, Thanks in advance
@angelus9151
You can't flash a boot.img via sideload and you can't flash a boot.img via adb. Has to be with fastboot.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img

Your boot.img is most likely fine, you just need to restore your system partition. Did you make a backup of your device using your custom recovery? If so, then you need to restore using that backup. Otherwise, I can provide a link to either my TWRP backup (not CWM compatible), an RUU, or my deodexed Rom. Your choice. First, if you already have a backup made up, then apply it. Otherwise, let me know.

I got it out of bootloop using CMW and flashing (K2CLCconversionN) rom but now i have nothing but that rom i had a backup but can't find it. I'm going to flash TWRP recovery and try to find a good rom that will work for (BOOST) K2CL, at this point i've had no luck. Thanks for trying to help me. do you know any got roms or links to one that will work.

Sorry about that yah i took the boot.img out of the (K2CLCconversionN) Rom and flashed it via fast boot "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
My only problem now is finding a rom that will work with data on the K2CL Boost one.
Thanks
@angelus9151
Download, and run this on your windows computer. Your device will need to be plugged in via usb to your computer also.

Just a pointer from someone who used to use CWM if you flash twrp recovery its a lot cleaner, with more options than CWM. since your going back stock I would recommend flashing twrp recovery in place of CWM

I had TWRP on before CWM but even when i would load that it would still bootloop thats why i used CWM. Just one question if i want to root it again without a system control app this time will i be able to use this exe file to restore it if it happens again. it took me a year before i tried it because the first time there was no roms and i bootlooped that HTC one SV and had to fork over $300.00 bucks for a new one but i figured that i would root it because of busybox.
Again Thanks...Your a life saver if this works.I'll let you know when i'm done

Its an ruu, an ruu is about as legit as you are going to get when it comes to restoring your phone. So yes, it will work . If your phone bootlooped when you flashed twrp in the past then my guess is that you either used the wrong fastboot commands and wrote it to another partition by accident, or you used a TWRP that was not presumably built for your phone and thus used another TWRP designed for another device.

If you are about to do something to your phone, make sure you know exactly what you are doing, why you are doing it, how it works, why it works, should I make a mistake what are my escape routes, and if all else fails - plan B. If none of these are set to mind then I recommend you do absolutely nothing to your phone until you actually understand its method.

Hi, So i just bought this device and I've looked all over the internet to root my htc one sv on BOOST mobile. I unlocked the bootloader but then must have been following the wrong guide and flashed a wrong recovery or something. I can boot just not into recovery, it gets stuck "entering recovery". Does anyone know a recent and more updated way to root this device?! Thank you so much in advance!

Dude! Thank you so much! It worked!
So it's been a long time since ive had a rooted htc device, where can I start on the basics of what I can and cannot flash/ do to my specifi htc on sv on boost?
Earlier I was trying to "S-OFF" my device so I can rewrite my "SuperCID" so I can update my Hboot to 2.15 and somewhere along that process i've managed to seriously screw my phone over.
Currently, my phone is unable to be mounted anywhere... My phone is without a ROM, so all i've got access to is the bootloader screen, and TWRP v2.7. And mounting my device in recovery mode then pushing a ROM file through "adb" does not work.
I have the AT&T EVITA dual core version of the phone.
I know this was completely stupid of me, and that i've might have made my phone into a pretty expensive paper weight. But any help at all would greatly appreciated. Thanks all.

No, fastboot is not recognizing my device. However when I emulate adb on my recovery it does recognize. And when i tried to push the ROM file into my /internal_sd it showed that it was unable to be mounted.
I'm not clear on what RUU dont want run that yet...
and my phone is still S-ON, nothings changed there.

Your best bet is to get to bootloader connect to PC and cmd window fastboot devices. See if PC recognized device or not. If it does reco the device, extract boot IMG from the ROM and flash it via fastboot
Sent from my One X using Tapatalk
Did you run a factory reset from the bootloader by any chance? That could be part of your problem. The other part of your problem is that TWRP 2.7 can have issues with mounting the sd card, so purely for the purpose of copying a ROM across you'd be best off installing TWRP 2.6. Of course that requires a working fastboot connection so you need to sort out your fastboot drivers. What OS are you running on your PC?
One thing I'll add here is do not run an RUU unless you're s-off.

Well, unfortunately now it looks like you really have bricked your phone. That recovery isn't for our device, we have the Evita so you should have downloaded from here:
http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/Evita
It's too late now, but for future reference you need to be more careful. Flashing that recovery has screwed your partitions, I believe the only thing that will save your phone is if you pay for a jtag repair to be done. You should be able to request s-off at the same time too.
Just out of interest, why did you download from there? What lead you there?

UPDATEEE
so for some reason I held my volume down button and power button for like 5 mins just as desperate last attempt before i give up for real.
and to my surprise im on the bootloader screen now. Luck is on my side i guess, how fortunate.
So now before i go about possible screwing up even more, would it be too much to ask for my next step to recovering my phone?
I have no idea how i stumbled upon that link. i was in status of stress and wasnt thinking clearly.. completely forgot that our model was the evita.
Thanks so much for all your help guys.

You're incredibly lucky, usually flashing something that's not intended for your device ends in a brick. Download TWRP 2.6 from here. Put the file in your fastboot folder. Connect phone in fastboot mode, open command prompt from within fastboot folder, issue the following commands:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "filename.img"
(the exact filename, minus the talking marks)
Code:
fastboot erase cache
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now you can select recovery from your bootloader to enter TWRP. Use the mount menu to mount usb storage and then copy a ROM across.

This is true, I guess u could also manually add the font using twrp and the included file manager, u would have to set permissions as well but it would work, didn't think about that, but again, that's assuming he's rooted or at the very least has an unlocked bootloader so he can flash the recovery

Well if he currently doesn't have twrp installed he's going to have to flash twrp first, and the only way to do that if he isn't rooted already is by using fastboot or a Toolkit of some kind, its a very simple process just:
fastboot flash recovery "recovery.img"
And done

Mate, let's clear this up:
EVEN if you don't have TWRP installed, and you do 'fastboot boot <twrp-2.x.x.x.img', the device WILL boot into TWRP, WITHOUT flashing.

Twrp still needs to be on the device in order to boot it, u don't necessarily need to flash it, but if twrp is not on the device, how can it boot twrp? I've never booted it without flashing it, so I may be wrong, but I don't see how u could boot an image that's not there lol

It is booted via fastboot from you computer. I have done this a bunch of times on devices that have never and still don't have twrp. Download a recovery you have never used onto your pc and try.
I bought the phone yesterday and successfully rooted,unlocked bootloader,installed custom recovery. But now i can't flash any custom rom.
I tried the slimsaber rom through TWRP, flashed with proper methods as instructed by the OP erased system, flashed firmware,flashed rom,
it flashed property but on flashing gapps it says "this device doesn't have a build.prop or something. And if i continue without flashing gapps it just freezes at the oneplus logo, powered by android below it .
I also tried flashing the 6.0.zip from CyanogenMod official site but in TWRP it just freezes at patching system unconditionally. I also tried the CyanogenMod recovery to flash it but it said signature verification failed.

Did you erases system after flashing firmware ?
Steps are .. Flash firmware -> Flash ROM > Flash Gapps -> Wipe Cache/Dalvik
All above steps without rebooting ...

No you should not wipe the system after flashing firmware.
Erasing system, data is the first step.
Follow below procedure.
1. Wipe system
2. Flash Firmware
3. Flash ROM
4. Flash Gapps
5. Erase Cache
6. Reboot

This is exactly what i did but on step 4... FLASHING GAPPS, it says your rom doesn't have a build.prop or default.prop .
And if i just continue without flashing gapps it just gets stuck at oneplus logo.

On flashing cm from the official site it gets stuck at patching system unconditionally ...
I also tried using other recoveries but nothing helped .
And i also tried the adb sideload ...it also gets stuck at 41% .

Update: it was a corrupt zip (official cm)
And there seems to be something wrong with slimsaber too ...
I downloaded the official cm 13 zip and it worked flawlessly... Also flashed sultan rom too ?

Add that recovery to the folder of minimal ADB and rename to just twrp. connect tablet to pc let it install the drivers. Type fastboot devices (to check it returns your device) then if all's type fastboot flash recovery twrp.img and then select recovery on tablet and boot to twrp

It worked thanks man , should i be concerned about this though ?
If its booting into the recovery and the ROM then prob not. Could always try to flash again if you're concerned
