[Q] ROM installation

Hello all,
I am a newbie to custom ROM installation. I tried three different ROMS (MIUI Gingerbread, MIUI_au ICS and another ICS rom). All got stuck in the startup logo screen. I did evertyhing according to the book. Any ideas?
Cheers

is that because I am in the wrong thread or because I am a newbie?

Why? Because you've supplied no real info about your phone or what you've tried doing etc. You've basically said "I tried to flash a ROM and it didn't work. Any idea why?". Not very informative is it?
And it's besides the point anyway. There are literally loads of guides about to help you (Bortak's being a good start). All you need to do is "search".

The forum rules require to use search. This has been asked and answered many times.
Also there is a big troubleshooting sticky thread in the QA section and yep, its in the wrong section, should be in the QA section.

Sure. You are right about the 'no real info' warning. I had to provide it - no questions about that.
Regarding your 'search' comments, I am not a newbie to the 'internet' or 'search'ing. Before I try to login and post a question to any forum I try to make sure I could not find someone else experience the exact problem and a solution for it.
Anyway sorry for wasting your time guys. This thread can be deleted by the mods.

Please use the Q&A Forum for questions &
Read the Forum Rules Ref Posting
Moving to Q&A

Given the info it can be anything, but in my short experience, when stuck in boot, a full wipe and re-download of the ROM has usually helped..

How much time did you wait ? First time, some roms take some time. Some patience is required first time.

Why on earth do people like you get so hung up about somebody asking a question? Isn't that what forums are intended for? I get terrified to ask a question anymore on busy forums because of the "USE SEARCH" brigade, appreciate there's probably been a lot of threads about it but not everybody has the time to read through page after page after page. Don't read the topic if it's something that's obviously been asked before seeing as it clearly offends you so much.

It's just not good for a forum if it gets spammed with the same question only because the people are too lazy to search.

^^What he said^^
It doesn't "offend" me at all. Read the Forum rules! The whole idea of the Search button is to keep topics neatly ordered, so we don't all have to wade through page after page of repeat questions to find the info we are looking for. Which, as you yourself mentioned, not everyone has the time to do.
It took me all of twenty seconds to find the link I posted above. It wasn't hard, I just searched "unroot Desire" and there it was, first on the list. It would have taken the OP twice as long to create ANOTHER thread on this topic as it did for me to search.

Thank you everyone on xda

I just want to Thank everyone on xda for helping me to fix/flashing roms/rooting/s-off my galaxy s3 and DHD. And not even thanked individually everyone for using there Rom/mods/tweaks/guide.
But I can help if some wants to mirror his data on dropbox. As I have 100gb space. Just let me know I'll download your file upload to my dropbox and send you a link. Can't post a direct link as I am a kid on xda
Sorry for my bad English iam from India
Love you all

This website is the best of internet for mobiles.
The work and support of the users of XDA is incredible.
Thank's!

Good thing to hear that you're enjoying the site.

XDA is the best mobile support website forever.

XDA is indeed a great site
It's one of those few sites that makes me look forward to things.
I've been on XDA so much these last days when there is new JB releases here and there for the S3. Great fun.

Wow. That's such an insightful post.
It's really quite shocking that out of approximately 4.5 million users that you'd think you're the only user here who thinks that this is "the greatest development forum".
May I make a suggestion?
Instead of jumping through random threads across XDA to tell people pointless stuff just to get up to 10 posts, you actually devote a bit of your time to reading threads such as :-
Forum Rules
Postcount limit in the developmental fora
Get the most out of XDA
XDA New User Guide
Now, you might be thinking that reading all of them might take quite a bit of time, and you're right. But it's either spend the time to read and follow what is said in those threads, or keep on doing what you are and quickly find that a moderator has deleted your posts because they're spamming.
The choice is yours
Oh, and please don't think that those threads were written for people like you just to ignore. That would be a really silly presumption to make and you'd quickly find out that those threads are in place to make this a much better place for all of us.
However, if you're struggling to think of how to get a legitimate 10 posts, then you should start off by answering peoples question in the General and Q&A sections for your device.
Much obliged

Why is Tonyskyfall's Ignorance Thread Closed ?

Why is Tonyskyfall's Ignorance Thread Closed ?
was it closed by Tonyskyfall ?

Instead of asking this silly question in public, why don't you send a private message to Tony Skyfall? Or, how about a moderator? I don't know how you expect any of us

instead of tony getting this silly question 1000 times (he had over 1000 downloads) in his PM box. why not answer here. i am curious why the thread got locked too.
give it time and a mod or tony himself will answer, the question was not directed to you

Sorry if you thought I took it personally. I don't take anything on this site personally. I'm only here to ask questions, bug report, and help people when I can. If you read the thread, it would be pretty obvious. Instead of the thread accumulating 50 pages of whining about battery life or something off topic, he probably locked the thread, as he mentioned a few times that he was really busy and wouldn't be updating for several weeks. Do we really want the thread to be like the shpongle thread where everything had been said but nobody can find it through the last 50 pages of off topic?

The Thread is Closed Cuz the Developer Was Tired of Silly Posts About Battery Drain(I was also the One to post though )
