[Q] Can someone verify this problem? [Revolution HD] - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm not sure if it's just an isolated case or does it exist across the board. I'm unable to post in the Revolution HD thread yet because I lack the post count.
I'm having some problem with boot-loops with these three things:
-Revolution HD 2.0.14
-No-Sense Script 1.0
-Circle Battery Mod 2.0.3
In the past, I used to be able to flash things in this order:
Sequence 1 said:
1) Revolution HD
2) No-Sense Script
3) Circle Battery Mod
This sequence describes a clean flash from wipe, installing Circle Battery Mod without reboot.

However, since 2.0.13 I've been getting boot-loops whenever I flash the Circle Battery Mod immediately after flashing Revolution HD and No-Sense Script (as in Sequence 1).
Instead, I found that flashing in this order would help with the boot-loops:
Sequence 2 said:
1) Revolution HD
2) No-Sense Script
3) Boot up phone
4) Reboot to recovery
5) Circle Battery Mod
This sequence describes a clean flash from wipe, installing Circle Battery Mod only after a reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now, if I happen to flash anything after Revolution HD 2.0.13 with the same configuration, I would get boot-loops. The sequence (updating the ROM without wipe) is as follows:
Sequence 3 said:
1) Sequence 2
2) Reboot to recovery
3) Revolution HD 2.0.14
4) No-Sense Script
5) Boot up phone (BOOT-LOOP)!
This sequence describes an update without wipe with Circle Battery Mod already installed
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This only happened since 2.0.13. I'm not sure if it's got anything to do with the new EXT4 system or the kernel, or something else. I would have to do a clean wipe before it starts working again.
I've checked all MD5 hashes and they are exact. I'm not sure what's causing the problem. I'm by the way using CWM 3.0.0.6.
Of course, it's not a major problem. I've tried every major ROMs on this forum, and no matter what ROM I try, I end up switching back to Revolution HD. It is truly the best ROM out there! I'd start donating soon when my cash comes in

I think the problem is that the update script in your Circle Battery mod is not compatible with CWM 3.
You can update it to work with CWM 3 with this tool:

Alternatively you could try making another battery mod in UOT and see if they have inlcuded the updated files for CWM 3.

Phone stuck at ''HTC'' boot screen after flashing ROM?

Heya guys,
New on these forums but not new to flashing roms.
I followed the guides and flashed the Android Revolution HD ROM 2.1.
Everything went well and I just pressed reboot.
Now it has been like 10 minutes and im still stuck on the white background HTC (green letters) bootscreen. Is this always taking that long after flashing or should I try to remove and reinsert the battery?
Thanks in advance!
I think I read that some people may take 10+ minutes on the first boot, but usually it only takes me around 3-5 minutes.
But you sure it's not a bootloop?
Is your clockwork updated to 3.0.0.6? Take the battery out and try again.
I assume you flashed only the rom and no themes and also did a full wipe? If so adb logcat will help a lot in diagnosing your error.

Yes it was updated to 3.0.0.6.
I tried removing the battery, same thing so I flashed another rom.
Now works like a charm.

Yeah did a full wipe. I flashed the full rom package from ''Android Revolution HD 2.1'' so I don't know it had a theme or not. Afterwards I did another full wipe and flashed CoreDroid HD 3.1. This one works like a charm. It's super fast and it's also good looking!
Thanks for the help
Kernal
Donno if this topic is still relevent or not, but if you don't flash a kernal specific to the rom (sense) It won't boot.

Well Roms come with the kernels so that usually isn't the problem, and when you do use kernels that aren't intended you'd quickly be able to troubleshoot and the effects i imagine could differ. When I've use wrong kernals i've been able to boot but things just wouldn't work. i.e. on hardware buttons working, extreme sluggishness etc.

[Q] Updgrading Android Revolution HD ROM to v2.1

I apologize if this is in the wrong place or has already been answered. I've certainly searched and must have missed it somewhere.
I am currently running the Android Revolution HD ROM, version 2.0.13.
I'd like to upgrade to the latest version which is 2.1. After reading the thread it says to install the newest version I must have either 2.0.15 or 2.0.16 installed first. Once this is done, I simply need to flash 2.1 ontop of one of these versions.
I have two questions regarding this.
A) Does this simply mean boot into ClockworkMod Recovery and hit 'install from ZIP', then choosing the 2.1 ROM .zip?
B) How do I go about installing version 2.0.16 over 2.0.13? Do I need to delete/format all data via ClockworkMod Recovery first or simply 'flash it on top' of 2.0.13, similar to question A?
Thanks in advance!
You don't need to install 2.0.15 or 16 if you download the full 2.1 ROM, don't download the 2.1 patch.
A) yes boot into recovery and install from the zip. But make sure you do a backup first just in case.
B) I don't think you need to wipe data to go from 2.0.13 to 16. But you need to flash 2.0.15 first then apply the 2.0.16 performance patch.
Hope it helps
Dont forget to make at least one full restart before flashing the patches to .16 and then another full restart before flashing 2.1 as this is recommended by Mike. Also disable fastboot before flashing patches, it could cause problems like bootloops.
cheers
Well - not long after I posted this thread, Android Revolution HD 3.0 was released.
I assume this is just a full ROM and to install it I simply boot into Clockworkmod Recovery, wipe all my data and then install the ROM from the .zip I place on my SD card.
Is that right?
I'm just in over my head and confusing my self. ):

Yes. But Mike has not uploaded the v3.0 yet. He said he has some problems with internet. So just wait until the evening and see what the master says.

Circle Battery Mod

Is there a way to get the circle battery mod with the stock odexed rom.
Perhaps a bottle of wine and some Barry White would get them together
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I assume you're rooted...if so, either go into themes and apps and check a couple of pages, or search the dev. forum for the rom and check the thread for the mods.
Do you know of any stock deodexed roms?

Thanks but I would also like a working link to a circle battery mod. Anybody know of one?
Sorry I don't have the link it is on a different computer
But here is the quick and simple. Remember just becasue it worked on my stock phone with custom Netchy Kernel dosen't mean it will work your phone
1. Nandroid
2. Flash flash1.zip
3. clear cache/dalvik
4. Reboot - Battery should no longer be there
5. Flash flash2.zip
6. clear cache/dalvik
7. Reboot now you have a Circle Battery meter
**** Now you can be done or if in your quest for a better battery you can go one step further, this changes a number of things besides battery gives you phone a little myn flavor which I like***
8. Nandroid
9. Flash evo_myn_classic___circle.zip
10. clear cache/dalvik
Note I am runing 3.70 downloaded from sprint applied manually via RA Recovery.
All the Zips were flashed with RA
****Also I take no credit for these files, I found them after lots of digging in themes section. I just did some trial and error to perfect my battery, (In hind sight it would of be easier to just put a new rom on)

[Q] Virtuous Quattro installation on desire HD

hello,
can someone please provide the procedure to install Virtuous Quattro on desire HD or a link to it ? is there a need to install any specific Radio /kernel? my HD is on default Radio, but custom MIUI ROM
How to:
Hi as you have a custom rom already it makes it simple as you are already rooted.
1 - Download the ROM and place it on the root of your microSD - Link for the Virtuos Quattro thread
2 - Also Download the Kernel to correct WIFI issues - Link and place it on the root of your microSD
3 - Power down your device and enter on recovery mode by holding volume down and power button at the same time. As soon as it prompt press volume up in 5 sec.
4 - Before flashing the ROM you will have to, for safety, make a backup of your existing ROM. You will find the option in the Recoverymode;
5 - After the backup do a FULL WIPE and it is very important to do in all data, cache and Dalvik (found in advanced options);
6 - Now install zip from MicroSD and look for the ROM.
7 - After installing the rom reboot the system - After rebooting power down into recovery mode again.
8 - Install the Kernel you download following the same procedure of item 6;
9 -Once again Reboot and enjoy.
I am not sure but I would try to avoid using any kind of app and data backup. Start from screch (I did it and had absolutely no problem).

hi Turner,
thanks for the instructions,
apart from installation of the fix for the wifi, is it needed to install any other kernel for this ROM to work? If so, at what stage the kernel (not the wifi fix) should be installed ? also, is it again like step 6 for the installation of the kernel?
As far as I am concerned you wouldn't need any kernel prior for the rom.. I came from stock to android revolution to cm 7.1 and then virtuous. I didn't install any specific kernel prior to flashing virtuos rom and it worked great.
Try flashing and then comeback here telling us the results.
A quick question: did you flash any kernel before the miui rom you have?
i haven't flashed any kernel or radio before, but have been flashing different ROMs. was bit confused when i read somewhere that for virtuous ROM you need to flash a kernel. Anyway, thanks for your feedback. Let me try as per the steps mentioned by you and see the results..
User30 if you're like me and uncounter a little problem with the Wifi not working or the sound not working either, here's a little trick;
1. go get the .zip here : dev-host.org/k8rsgpxf5o2y/lordmodUEv8.8-ICS-BFS-b7.zip
It's lord kernel, really nice and work fine.
2. Put it on your SD card, *don't extract it*
3. you'll need to clear the cache when you're in the clockwork on ace hack.
4. Install the .zip using the same way that you install your ROMs
if it didn't work here's the modification
1. get the .zip of the Kernel and the one of the ROM
2. Put them on the SD card
3. Make a FULL wipe and be sure to Wipe the cache too
4. Install the ROM.
5. Install the Kernel
6. Everything should work perfectly
I had some problem with some Kernel, no idea why. The one I just gave the link to is working perfectly and didn't had any problem with it. p.S if working with Virtuous Quattro, install the RC1 for now. There is a bug on the wifi on the RC2 and I think they are currently working on it.
Sorry for my bad english btw.
Radio update utility is present in ARHD 6.3.1 thread....hope this will help you to update the radio...i updated with it without any issues..

Contact Photo
Hello
1-Why is the picture quality of the Contact, is down?
2-No setting For Gallery ... Why?
Are you speaking about the Virtuous RC1 or RC2. Since it's a RC version and not the complet version it's normal that some stuff ain't working or are bugging.
But as we speak there's more likely some people of the Virtuous working on the rom itself so I guess some of those will be fixed. If you want to keep information about the dev go in the thread about it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1428047 you'll see all the update you need to follow

[Q] first time trying to install new rom on NOTE 2 - aroma installer freeze

Hello. As you can guess, I need help.
I'm trying to install a custom rom, but the installation seem to stop on the aroma installer
quick background :
I have already installed custom roms on a few other devices ( kindle fire, HTC desire, and desire HD )
First time trying it on my Note2 N7100.
I spent about 5/6 hours reading the forums, trying to sort out what I was going to do. Here is what I tried.
I start from stock, never touched 4.1.2
I use Odin and flash Philz recovery 6.07.9
Reboot on said recovery, go to wipe and clean to install new rom
install rom, select zip from external SDCARD
Select DitoNote3
aroma start ...
I see conditions, accept
I see changelog, press next.
And nothing happens. Screen stay the same, installer doesn't respond to anything or gives any sign of being installing anything.
After about 5 minutes, I decided to reboot the phone. I can still reboot in recovery.
I tried with phoenix rom. Pretty much the same, except if happened when I pressed backup EFS
So, is this step supposed to be extra long and without any indication about what is happening ?
Is there anything that can make the aroma installer crash like that ?
Any help welcome.
In the meantime, I will be downloading pre-rooted stock and try to flash one of those.
Edit : I am now considering the possibility that readng and external SDcard is what's causing crashs. But I do not have rom images on the phone memory, and already wiped system.
Any way to access internal memory from recovery to copy rom and try flashing purely from internal memory ?
It is a bug in recovery with Aroma. You have to use version 5.xx not 6.xx.

Most 4.3-Roms work best with Philz 5.15 as many developers suggest in their installation advice. :good:

Thank you all !
As you suggested, running philz 5.15 worked.
Sorry I missed that point when reading. Or rather, I supposed Roms maker where suggesting 5.15 recovery because it was the only one available at the time they wrote the guide, and I might as well go for the latest version.
