# grep -E "^hiddenmenu|^timeout" /boot/grub/grub.conf

Try holding “Ctrl” at GRUB splash/menu screen and then select previously working kernel. If that won’t help then boot into a rescue mode and do following:

# yum remove kernel-VERSION
# yum update kernel

It’s very recommended that you check MD5s of all files prior starting whole process (needless to say if as little as one of them doesn’t match you should abort until you have match (try to re-download)).

$ md5sum hbooteng.nb0
6991368ee2deaf182048a3ed9d3c0fcb
$

list all connected devices

#  devices
List of devices attached
HTXXXXXXXXXX	device
#

reboots the device into the

# adb reboot bootloader
#

list all connected devices

# fastboot devices
HTXXXXXXXXXX	fastboot
#

create bootimage and flash it (unlock permanent hboot and flash temporary hboot)

# fastboot oem mw 8d08ac54 1 31302E30
... OKAY
#

create bootimage and flash it (flashing new hboot)

# fastboot flash hboot hbooteng.nb0
sending 'hboot' (1024 KB)... OKAY
writing 'hboot'... OKAY
#

flash only one (current), order is a must!
