You should do it with a PC not directly from phone if you are on hboot 1.50 and 2.3.4 ROM. Silverneedle is kernel made for 2.3.3 ROMs.

Copy a ROM's zip file to SD card using recovery/card reader > Copy boot.img from the ROM's zip file to fastboot folder > boot your phone in bootloader then select fastboot > connect your phone to pc (it should say fastboot usb on phone)> now open cmd > head to your fastboot folder in cmd> then type fastboot flash boot boot.img > then type fastboot boot xxxxx.img (xxxx = your recovery img (cwm/twrp) ) > Now your phone will boot into recovery (make sure red LED is on in recovery) > then wip everything using a wipetool > then flash another another ROM .......

this is what i have done. I was able to pass the htc screen and the screen went black.Everything was working (even touch was working, Volume keys tooi can hear sound) but the screen didnt light up it was black....

Hope this helps.............
[HTC EVO 3D] Luda305:
Try going back to cwm... I had the same problem after flashing twrp2.0... So I flashed cwm back and flashed the rom the adb/fastboot way and everything went good...... A lot of people are having problems with the new twrp....... I'm on hboot 1.50 if your wondering....
[HTC EVO 3D] Mr_Random:
Success! OMG THANKS!

What I needed to do; Copy boot.img from cleanROM2.9 into my fastboot folder > Cmd Fastboot flash boot boot.img > cmd fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (my twrp name)> clear everything> flash cleanrom2.9> reboot

I was trying all last night to do this, but my process was incorrect; I tried to create a Kernel from the boot.img inside cleanROM and flash that separately, but it wasn't working because on Hboot 1.5 you MUST use fastboot usb to flash the boot.img directly, THEN flash the rom on top.

Would this be the case for all ROM's, or just the ones that use custom kernels?
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
If you are going to flash a ROM that uses the same kernel as your current ROM then you dont need a pc (i guess so)........and i have a method to flash kernels/ROMs without using PC on Hboot 1.50. I never had any issues with it . The only issue i faced was in a sense 3.5 ROM(but i dont know if it was due to my method or the ROM zip was corrupted )......

And For flashing custom kernels use flash image GUI . But remember , Only use 2.3.4 kernel not 2.3.3

Check Intratech's thread. I would say you install one firmware with your CSC (depends on your region, not carrier) and flash the custom ROM afterwards.

So, was running a sense rom through the SD card. Let my wife use the N1 for a bit.

She erased the SD card, and now I'm stuck on the X boot screen with no recovery image, no way to drop a rom image onto SD to flash. I can easily access the fastboot/hboot screen, but I have nothing to flash.

Basically, I have a working phone with no OS.

ADB doesn't work in bootloader. It works only when the kernel is up and running - the initial stage of OS boot.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kayak83:
I've been posting here and there around here lately but thought I'd get a cleaner, more focused thread going for those of us who used HTC's unlock tool and want root.

I managed to get the bootloader unlocked with HTC's tool and installed SU and clockwork onto my Inc2 but I think I'm having problems because I'm still S-On instead of S-Off.

So, what do we do next after unlocking the bootloader? I'm under the impression that because I'm S-On still, I can flash a custom ROM, but not only the ones with the stock kernel intact. This would be why Sabotage was able to install, but Mik wouldn't. Still only a theory, though.

ANY HELP PLEASE!!!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tpbklake:
There are 2 options to flash a custom ROM that has a custom kernel on an unlocked bootloader.

1. Instead of booting to recovery mode directly, you need to boot in Fastboot mode and issue the command:

Fastboot boot [path to custom recovery.img]

This will boot you into recovery mode using the custom recovery image. Then you can flash a custom ROM with a custom kernel correctly.

2. Extract the boot.img from the custom ROM zip file and copy it to your SDK tool directory.

Then boot into recovery mode and flash the custom ROM. Next you must reboot into bootloader mode and enter Fastboot mode. Enter the following command:

Fastboot flash boot [path to the boot.img file].

Try either option 1 or option 2. You do not need to do both.

Hope this helps.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kayak83:
Tried option 1 and when I go to select install zip from sd card after booting to cwm the phone restarts. Trying option 2 now...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kayak83:
Option #2 won't work since I get stuck at the HTC screen when trying to load a custom ROM.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tpbklake:
How did you try to reboot into bootloader from recovery once the ROM was flashed. Once I get into recovery I connect the phone with a USB cable and then type

Adb reboot bootloader

This will boot you into HBOOT straight from recovery and should prevent the hang at the HTC.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kayak83:
Ok. Let's start fresh and complete:

1- Plug phone into computer.

2- select HTC sync on phone

3- open cmd and get to sdk

4- type "adb reboot bootloader"

5- phone should reboot to HTC's recovery thing

now what?

I have cwm installed already.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tpbklake:
Just select Charge Only, not HTC Sync.

Once you type adb reboot bootloader you should get the HBOOT screen and it should show FASTBOOT USB.

At this point you should enter Fastboot commands from you PC command prompt.

So you said you tried fastboot boot [path to recovery.img file] and it did boot you into recovery, right? Then you should be able to flash the custom ROM and reboot normally when the install is complete.

For option 2 once you are in recovery mode flash the custom ROM and then when it is finished connect the phone with the USB cable and at the command prompt you should be able to type adb devices and it will respond with your device id.

If it does, then type adb reboot bootloader and it will take you back to the HBOOT screen. From there you would then enter the following Fastboot command:

Fastboot flash boot [path to boot.img file]

Then Fastboot reboot
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kayak83:
I'm able to fastboot into cwm. But when I go to select install zip from sd card via the phone controls (volume up/down/power), the phone reboots.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mza929:
dumb question but...

how do you find the path to your custom recovery?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tpbklake:
You determine what the path is when you download the recovery image to your PC. The best place to download or copy it to is the same folder you run adb.exe and fastboot.exe from.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mza929:
great thank you... i was thinking i had to use a path to the recovery on my phone's storage not my PC's...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mza929:
Can someone link me to a cwm recovery that works. I'm having the reboot issue after selecting choose file from SD card.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] hackweed:
OK maybe I am missing something here. Do you actually have full root? If you do, how did you get it? I don't know how to get the su binary and busybox installed. I have unlocked my bootloader using the htc supertool and I don't have root, which is keeping me from installing CWM or anything root related for that matter. I have not seen any instructions on how to root this thing since the unlock tool became compatible 3 days ago. But maybe I have missed something.

Thanks for any help.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mza929:
Still cant get rom to boot... however, i have been able to fastboot into custom recovery and complete the flashing process...

Now i am just stuck at the HTC screen after reboot.

Any suggestions?

Thank you all so far. You have been most helpful.

***** update ***** I finally got it after fast booting into recovery, flashing rom, and then extracting boot.img from that rom and flashing it via fastboot.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tpbklake:
Yes good job. The last part is the key to getting a custom ROM installed. Glad it worked for you.

---------- Post added at 09:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:09 AM ----------

After you have an unlocked HBOOT, you need to flash CWM recovery image in FASTBOOT mode. Once you have CWM installed, you can install the latest SU-3.0.xx.zip to root your current ROM and then you can installl and use root programs like ROM Manager, Busybox, Titianium Backup, etc. or you can install a rooted custom ROM.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tpbklake:
With the unlocked bootloader, after you flash the custom ROM in recovery mode, you must extract the boot.img file from the custom ROM.zip and put it in the same directory you run adb.exe and fastboot.exe from and then manually flash it in FASTBOOT mode using the command:

fastboot flash boot boot.img
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] djricorich:
after flashing the rom it installs on the device and goes through in recovery and says its installed then reboots on its own and doesnt stay in recovery. is that normal?

and if so after installing the rom do I put it in fastboot then plug it in the cpu to use adb to manually flash? or should i just install everything rom and boot.img through adb?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] RegnierD:
Many of Newt's roms include a reboot command after the recovery finishes flashing unmounting all the partitions, so expect that to happen. Not all developers do.

Just power off the device (pull battery, if needed) and go into HBOOT (Vol. Down + Power) and then select Fast boot, then use the aforementioned directions to flash the boot.img.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mza929:
It occurs to me with my device unlocked but still with s-on there should be a super easy way to gain s-off (other than downgrading). I'd really like to keep the set up I have right now but I also want to try new kernels etc.

Using HTCunlock doesn't give you access to flash a new radio. You must be S-OFF to flash a new radio.

HTCunlock only gives you access to /system and /recovery partitions.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JRngln:
reboot

So let me ask this, if verizon sends out an update for the radio with the ICS update thats now supposed to happen will it update if HTC unlock was used?

And can you reboot phone just to reboot? or do you have to have access to a comp to flash boot.img before doing so?

Oh and does it give access to the data folder?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sgiitk:
I doubt it, since once you have an Unlocked Bootloader a .zip file cannot be installed. You have to flash the .img file using fastboot. At least this is my experience with my Wildfire S which I also have.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JRngln:
I think thats not completely accurate, From more research it looks like you can still change roms (flash .zip) but you would also have to pull the boot .IMG file out of that rom your flashing and fastboot flash that using adb, and as far as the radio thing I originally asked about, YES radio could still be updated by HTC/your Carrier because it would be SIGNED meaning it would not trip the S on or SECURITY flaggs that would abort install.

I'm not sure that it's a defect. I figure I'll give it some more time first. Also, it started happening after I installed 2 apps that weren't listed the market, which I sideloaded onto the tablet, so I'm wondering if they may have had something to do with it. I've since uninstalled them and will monitor the situation.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] _Gir_:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
Also, even though the flickering seems like it would be a hardware problem, the fact that the soft buttons disappear and the area turnaround black leads me to believe that it's some type of software problem, not a hardware defects.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
I suspect that incompatible apps may have something to do with this. I sideloaded two unsupported apps and I got the flicker shortly after that. I uninstalled them yesterday and so far, so good. Also, I was getting a ton of reboots and crashes when I initially automatically loaded all of my phone apps onto the Prime. I did a factory reset and carefully chose my apps, and it's been much more stable since.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
My flicker only happened once since resetting my Prime and installing the latest update, and it happened at the moment the battery was dying and the tablet was shutting off. The fact that it pretty much stopped happening after a reset and update leads me to believe it's software and not hardware. If you're still having occasional flickering, I wouldn't waste too much time worrying about it until the ICS update comes.
