UPDATE your thread title, OP

---

You really should add this is the same procedure for flashing a kernel, theme, or any rom for those with S-ON Unlocked, HBOOT 1.45.0013! It would really help the new guys I figured it out quickly but it would have saved me some time lol

Yeah this would have saved me SOOOO much time..oye...Lmao

phone htc doubleshot

---

Hello,

I have had the worst time trying to get my wife's t-mob mytouch 4g slide to go anywhere from stock crappy rom..... with very little progress.

I feel comfortable doing all of the rooting/updating kind of stuff... I have been running CM roms starting from g1 to my current htc sensation running cm9.....

BUT... this phone I can not get anywhere.

The phone has hboot_1.45.0013 and I have unlocked the boot loader via htc tool.

The method in this thread (get for example cm9 alpha for doubleshot and extract boot.img) seems to not work for me.

1st I can get fasboot to get the boot.img in but after I flash recovery 5.0.2.7 it seems to not work, therefore I can not flash full build or kernel or anything else.....

2nd the recovery shows up with all menu options on the screen but none of them work... clockword recovery logo image appears for every option I select.

Please any advice on how to get to any other state other than the one I am in.....

Thank you in advance,
Mike O.

With this recovery you select with the power button, not the trackball.

If you didn't get an error with the fastboot part, it probably worked fine. Try the power button instead of the trackball in recovery and see if that doesn't solve this for you...


(had the same problem myself)

I am used to pressing power button for selection since I do it often on my htc pyramid phone recovery. I know that there was no action after pressing power button for selection on my wifes mytouch 4g slide.

thanks for advice.... I think that recovery just does not install correctly or something like that. I did try to install several times via fastboot.

For those who are successful at taking unrooted 1.45.0013 hboot phone with unlocked boot loader and applying any rom via method described in this thread, can someone put down steps they took including getting recovery in to the phone please.

any help is greatly appreciated.

Once you've unlocked, all you have to do is one of the following:

To test once and once only (I advise you do this prior to flashing it - it's akin to a boot disk without actually installing anything to permanent storage):

fastboot boot myrecovery.img

To actually flash it to your phone:

fastboot flash recovery myrecovery.img

Ultimately, I followed this thread but I skipped the part about flashing the PG59IMG.zip.

Thank you.
