[Q] Help - HTC Desire S Can't boot

Hello, I'd like to ask you for help, because I have following problem with my htc desire S (HBOOT 2.00.0002, RADIO_3822-10-08-04_M and S-on).
I unlocked bootloader according to htcdev and rooted by SuperOneClick 2.3.3. Than I installed 4EXT Recovery v 2.2.7 RC5 and prepared ROM files (Endymion_V3.1_base_release.zip and Endymion_V3.4_updater.zip) on my SDcard.
After that I entered Bootloader and 4Ext Recovery without any problem. And here is probably my fault. I have formated everything with SDcard exception - that means also /boot. Following installation of both prepared files (Endymion_3.1 + 3.4) from SDcard ended with "success".
BUT. When I rebooted phone, display remained white with green letters HTC only. To switch the phone off I had to remove battery. On the other hand
I am able to start bootloader (SD Checking: Load PG88DIAG.ZIP - No Image; Load PG88DIAG.nbh - No Image or wrong image) and 4Ext Recovery.
Let me know please, what to do and how to repait it.
Thank you.

You need to extract boot.img from the endymion zip file and flash it using fastboot.
The command you'll need to execute is:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
For details on how yo set up fastboot click on the link on my signature.

Download the rom again, extract boot.img from the zip and flash with fastboot

Thank you very much. After boot flash everything works again.

Trying to flash revolution

Hello I've just s-off'd, installed clockwork recovery and rooted my phone, set the supercid.
I was following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1471941
I have put the PG58IMG.zip, radio file, super wipe and Android revolution ROM files all onto the root of my SD card. I rebooted into Hboot mode and it asked if I wanted to install the update which I said yes to.
Now every time I try to boot the phone it gets to the HTC quietly brilliant logo and then just restarts itself. I can get into HBOOT mode where it just asks me to install the update again.
Can anyone help please?

You have to remove the firmware PG58IMG.zip file from your SD or it will attempt to update everytime you launch the bootloader

just remove your sd card when you boot then after it boots you in hboot put your sd card back in and go to recovery and remove the file

HELP Can't install any ROM or RUU

Hello,
yesterday I installed Jelly Bean and wanted to revert it back to the latest RUU. I wiped everything, I did even a factory reset but RUU tells me always error 170 usb not connected.
TWRP and CWMT can't mount /sdcard as a lunvfile is missing. And I am sitting here about 10hrs trying to repair this phone. I have relocked it of course for RUU.
And I can't flash any update.zip via fastboot as it tells my that the signature check fails.
HBOOT 1.13

Hello first flash phone stock boot img. Then find ALL in One kit 1.0 for htc one s you can find it in google or on forum, and flash stock recovery via this tool. Boot your phone in recovey and clean strage and factory data reset. After this flash custom recovey( in my case TWRP let me to mount sd card) In TWRP mount sd card and push your rom in to sc card via adb.
Later i can do tutorial step by step just let me know. My phone was turning only to bootloader or recovey, but sdcard was not mounted. RUU was showing error all the time. Its take me 7 hours to fix it

You must have stock recovery to flash it.

Deleted Operating System

Hello,i accidentally deleted my operating system,i tried everything to flash a new one ,every custom roms out there.
The TWRP version is 2.5.0.0
Everytime i execute the ZIP files from TWRP errors appear :
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/BackToBasicsV2.zip'
Error executing updater binary in zip : 'sdcard/BackToBasics'
Could you provide me a working tutorial?I tried every tutorial from here and nothing worked,i don't know what to do anymore.

I had a similar problem in which I accidentally pressed factory reset in bootloader instead of recovery (WHY ARE THEY SO CLOSE?!). Anyway, I ended up having to factory reset from recovery and wipe everything on my phone, then I adb pushed a rom to my phone and it finally let me flash it. Although I recommend waiting until someone else posts something as this is more of a "last resort" lol

Connect your phone to your PC find it in devices and format it... Download twrp 2.3.3 recovery image and install it with fast boot.. Then paste a ROM to your SD card and flash away NP...don't forget the boot.IMG when flashing your new ROM it will have to be flashed with fast boot also..

if the rom is stock based or Has an HTC bootloader, than the rom is no good.
BUT if S-on is there and you have clockworkmod installed, then you need to manually S-OFF the device
in order to flash the boot.img file in the rom zip. S-OFF can be done manually in clockworkmod as there
is an adb bridge. what happened is you probably left the old kernel installed. that NO IMAGE ZIP is actually
most likely talking about your kernel files (boot.img) If you need tools to manually s-off your device,
message me.
Hit the thanks button if I helped at all.
