Hi!
I have found similar problems in the forums, but none of the post seem to help my problem here. :confused:

My phone can't startup, it just continue to reboot after 15-20 seconds (showing the white screen with the HTC logo) :eek:

Hboot info:
*** UNLOCKED *** <- (used the HTCdev.com method)
Shooter_U PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.49.0018
eMMc-boot
(date and time)

I can enter Hboot, have managed to get revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4 on it. Tried a few different ROM's trough the Rev. tool - they seem to install fine, but I still can't start up the phone. Also tried to change my hboot by dl a (PG86IMG.zip) file, seems like it's installing/unzipping when I turn on my device (blue bar at the right hand side of the screen fills up to the top) then nothing happens. The version is the same and so on.

I know I have USB debugging checked and fastboot checked, but I cant turn it off as long as I can't startup my phone? - if this is what causing the problem? Any ideas? :confused::confused::confused:

EDIT: I also tried the factoryreset/wipedata/wipe cache from the revo-tool.

I'm not 100% sure since i'm S-On HTC Unlocked CDMA version, but with S-On/ Unlocked, you have to enter recovery via fastboot command prompt (ie: type: fastboot boot YourRecoveryFilename.img ). The filename has to exactly match the filename you flashed to the phone AND the filename that resides in your fastboot folder (you have to leave a copy there, idk why). Once in recovery you can format system, wipe data, and flash rom's & kernels. If you don't enter recovery this way the kernel won't load and you will boot loop.

There are other options, such as JoeyKrim's Flashimage to flash the kernel first, then enter recovery by any method to flash the rest, or you can extract/copy the "boot.img" from the rom's zip, put it in fastboot folder and (type: fastboot flash boot boot.img ) to flash the kernel separately via fastboot command. Doesn't the first option to enter recovery via fastboot just sound more straight forward?

Note: I have some examples in my Guide/flashing notes thread (in my signature) that may help you understand better, but keep in mind its for CDMA version so none of the files I've linked will work with GSM, but the 3rd or 4th post for flashing roms/kernels should help.

Sorry for this taking so long guys..

I fixed my issue by simply using a cmd prompt and boot the img from the zip/rom you have downloaded. I'll try to my make a step by step here:

1. Boot into fastboot and plug in your usb

2. Copy boot.img from the zip/the rom you want installed) and paste it to your Android SDK tools folder. Prob: C:\Android SDK\tools

4. Open a command prompt in C:\Android SDK\tools

5. Write in fastboot boot boot.img the CMD prompt

Voila! Your phone should now be working again. :)

Whenever you try to flash ROMs always follow these steps , if you are unlocked via HTC method.
Boot your phone in bootloader > Select fastboot > connect to PC >phone should say fastboot-USB > open cmd > navigate to fastboot folder > put your recovery in that folder > pull the boot.img from the ROM you are trying to flash and put it in fastboot folder > then type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" > then type "fastboot boot recovery.img (your recovery name might be different so use that name instead) > Your recovery will boot > Wipe everything first > then flash the ROM.....

the command is fastboot FLASH boot boot.img
you can not forget the flash part... it is an integral part of the system to modify it....

for you .... you have a boot/img file problem... the backup... if you did one.... pull the boo9ot.iumg file from there and rewrite it to the boot partition and it should boot up

I'm on Sprint Cdma, but it looks like u might be using the CDMA Recovery (shooter) vs Gsm Recovery (shooteru).
