Ok ive tired like 4 different roms and I keep getting stuck on the image for the rom after the bootloader. I don't know what I'm doing wrong?!?!
the process you linked is basically using a tool to unlock via htcdev,install recovery,and flash superuser files(steps 1,2,3 from
this post of the other thread i linked above).
the reason i strongly recomended to follow suit with becoming s-off is the same reason that you are haivng trouble.
htcdev unlock does not allow recovery to write to the boot partition. what that means in simple terms,is that
you cannot flash roms from a permantly installed recovery becasue they will not install the kernel.
hopefully this link will help you understand why s-off is better,and how you can flash roms if you want to stay s-on:

once you have understood everything in the link,you basically have 3 choices if you wish to flash roms:
1)reinstall your stock rom and root files,then run the s-off tool. s-off rom flashing is much simpler
or
2)you must launch recovery into phone memory from fastboot every time you want to install a rom
or
3)if you wish to install roms from a permantly installed recovery youll need to learn how to extract the boot image from your downloaded rom and manually flash it
since options 2 and 3 both reqire a PC in order to work,#2 is the easiest of those 2 options.
#3 is the only option that will let you download roms right to your phone and flash them without a PC in sight.
last and not least,the result on the TB thread was similar,but the prollem itself is different. in your case,its a well known issue with htcdev.
hope that helps clear up some confusion.
holler if you have questions.
