version: 0.5"tampered" is triggered when you flash a custom recovery. im not sure why its disapearing,assuming you still have clockwork installed,but were not concerned about that for the moment. as long as youre still unlocked then youre good to go.
as an afterthot,when youre doing the above directions,enter fastboot getvar all after fastboot devices and before fastboot boot recoveryname.img
copy and paste that info here.
to copy in cmd: right click,click mark. highlight everything in white. hit enter.

how bout the fastboot getvar all information?
also,make sure you do NOT have htc sync,pdanet,easy tether,or any program capable of comunicating with the phone running. better if you have them uninstalled or disabled. also try some different usb cables and ports,not all cables are created equal(as ive found out the hard way
) and can cause extremely fustrating prollems.

As far as ROMs go if you want Sense based (like stock) I would suggest Viper One S, for AOSP (vanilla android) I'd recommend CM10.
FYI, you are going to need to fastboot flash the boot.img as well with that version of the bootloader. Scotty has you going right, so I will let him continue
Just throwing in some tips.

yes i saw your info above. you have a quite a nack for ninja posting while im typing
you prolly just want to close that message box on the PC. you should not need to format your phones internal sd card. maybe agentc13 has an opinion on this,as ive only 1 phone with an internal,not removable sd,and i havent come across that issue yet.
see if you can close the message box,open the folder that represents the phones internal sd,then transfer the rom to it.

Yeah, don't format. Just close the pop-up.

fastboot booting the recovery,should let the recovery write the boot image for him(it does on other htcdev unlocked devices,but may not here). ive also got him using twrp,wich will auto install the boot image,yes?
thanks for the info,i remember folks runnint into trouble after accidentally formatting internal storage on some devices,so i thot formatting may have some unhappy results.
eric917 the good news is that your recovery is running,and will charge while yuur in it. hopefully flashing a rom will get you running,but since im not 100% sure how you got your self into this mess,downloading the ruu brian recomended is defiantely a good "just in case" idea
agentc13,i aSsume his 1.14 hboot matched the newest software/firmware?

I am not 100% sure on the fastboot booting the recovery, but the newer hboots (1.13 and up I believe) won't let TWRP flash the boot.img.
If not the newest one, it is close at least. I believe you need this RUU, instead of the 1.53 that Brian linked (without s-off, I don't think you can flash an older RUU).

okay i am going to do it now wish me luckdo NOT extract it. it must be a zipped up file.
youll do this:

cool,we will see how it goes. the rezound,evo3d,and lots of others booting the recovery from fastboot,and not a permanent partition lets the phone flash like it was s-off.
ooooo,but wait... yall dont have s-off,so prolly no roms are scripted to flash the boot image are they? we may have to instruct him how to flash the boot image anyway. crap!
i was trying to simplify things and not overwhelm him with directions.erik917 if it still wont boot after the rom flash,do not despair,youll just need to do a couple more steps.
correct. its interesting that his phone does not show a main version number. i believe this would let him flash an older ruu,as long as it had the same hboot. but the hboot check will keep him from flashing anything old enuff to be different.
that most certainly is the one he needs.

ok,if it does not boot after the rom install,then here is what you will need to do:
on your PC,extract the rom download and find the boot.img,and place it into your android/folder
power back on into hboot,select fastboot,and then open a cmd window,and change to the android directory .
now flash the boot image with this command:
fastboot flash boot imagename.img (prolly just: fastboot flash boot boot.img )
and that,should finally get you up and running.
sorry,it slipped my mind that one s roms may not be scripted to install the boot image. since the rezound achieved s-off,roms are not scripted for the s-off crowd,wich simply isntall the boot image with the rom flash.

now im confused...
from this post,i thot you had downloaded a rom allready:
i would prolly pick the viper rom agentc13 reccomended,it will be a simpler install,and better for the purposes of getting your phone up and running again.( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1850917 )
-download viper rom
-extract a copy of viper rom on the pc. put boot.img into your android folder
-fastboot boot recovery as described above.
-place rom on sd card.
-wipe data,cache,dalvik cache
-flash rom
-attempt to reboot. if it fails,then follow the directions above to flash the boot.img

yes,it should be easier to get you up and running with that. once youre back to a working phone,we can help you flash paranoid.
