Hey guys, Little background info, i am on MeanBean (December 2012), i am currently s-on, hboot 2.09 radio 1.12.11
i was looking for some help,i want to install Captain_Throwback so i could eventually use Moonshine and get s-off and than get the new cyanogenmod 11 update. So i transferred Captain_Throwback to my sd card and boot into twrp 2.6.3.0 i used Super wipe and than flash Captain_throwback, it completes fine but when it begins to reboot, i get a bootloop on the htc screen and am stuck here

Thanks for the help

Since you're s-on you'll need to fastboot flash the kernel to get past the bootloop. If you're not familiar, here's a quick guide on getting fastboot setup on your pc:

Once you've got it, just pull the boot.img file out of the rom zip and run

Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
at the command prompt from the folder you extracted the boot image to.

You shouldn't need to do it anymore once you're s-off but fastboot and adb are still incredibly useful for other things so they're good to have anyway.
