Hi, i have a quick and simple question.
I've decided to delete my stock rom and flash a cooked rom so.... what is better, that i first flash the radio on the stock rom and then flash the new rom or flash the new rom and then the recommended radio?? Thank YoU!
Doesn't really matter but I did it after flashing the rom.
You should be fine if you flash it after the rom.

I always flash radio after

I agree that it doesn't matter too much and flashing Radio for me at least is something I do far more often than flashing ROM (although lately maybe not since deciding to go with the RC versions of Cyanogen). With Radio's you'll be wanting to test a few out as what works for some may not work so well with your ROM etc. so again, you'll be flashing over ROM's.
oooook ! Thank You All for replying!
You're welcome.
Just for the benefit of others, we (and I'm guilty too) use the term flashing radios but probably shouldn't. A radio should be pushed using adb or fastboot not flashed like a ROM.

Just bought my G2 last night. Quickly I rooted/S-off/unlocked it. I decided to stick with the stock rom as I don't like dealing with bugs, etc.. I would however like to be able to overclock using SetCPU. I need to flash an OCable kernel to achieve this with the stock 2.2 Rom yes? I tried to flash one via clockwork like i would flashing a new rom but I got stuck in a looping HTC screen and had to Nandroid back. I was reading up a little on bacon bits and it says something about pushing in ADB but I'm unfamiliar with ADB (think I used it to flash my Slide but that's about it). I tried searching around for kernel info but I couldn't find much. Any help is appreciated.
Pershoots kernel for CM roms only

Well I think I got ADB up and running and understand how to push but now it seems the baconbits link is dead...
Is baconbits my best bet?
No kernels for stock rom, CM 6.1.1 is stable try that maybe you'll like it, pershoots support that rom too
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Oh okay thanks. I might try that out. What known issues does CM 6.1 have? Does it support swype? I missed that feature when I Flashed it on my MyTouch Slide and ended up going with a rooted version of the stock rom.
You should take a look through the dev forum for some of the older threads starting with "[KERNEL]." I remember there being a couple that supported overclocking on stock (but it's been a long time). Also, the BaconBits link worked for me, so you might want to try it again (otherwise, I think there is an older version of it you can flash directly through ROM Manager).
As far as CM goes, I use it on my G2 and haven't had any major problems that didn't have workarounds. You can use Swype with it (either the official beta or there are some guides for backing up/restoring Swype from the stock ROM).
Hey guys I have some knowledge about rooting (rooted the G1 first- the good ol days haha). My question is about flashing new roms. Currently I have the juggernaut rom and was curious as to understand what steps do I need to take to flash another rom? Do a fullwipe then simply install the rom? My second question deals with kernels. If I want to flash a rom and on the thread it gives me a kernel to flash as well is this what i do? Wipe everything, then flash the rom, then reboot, then go back and flash the kernal? Thank you guys for your help!!
I always do a wipe before flashing a new rom. Not sure if it really matters and I usually flash a rom and then flash a kernel without leaving cwm or rebooting.

So you flash the rom, then if given the kernel during recovery mode then reboot?

Yeah, make sure you flash the kernel before you reboot, but after the you flash the rom

Sorry for double posting, but does anyone gotten voodoo sound to work on the t-mobile SG2??
Hjau, and thanks for reading.
I've been using the HOS from day 1 and have now decided to jump into the HOX camp. I would like to know what's the biggest differences concerning ROM's, flashing, and so forth, if there is any, since I'm a noob with Android.
A couple of questions...
1. I've got the Finnish version of HOX - is it suitable for all ROMs or just some of them? Can I flash CM10 Alpha 7 by tbalden?
2. Is the whole flashing process same with the HOS after unlocking the bootloader; custom recovery (CWM), wipe, flash, fastboot boot.img and boot?
3. Is there anything else to know in terms of tricks and tips for the HOS; not seeking for battery savin' or the likes of that, just device-specific stuff that is important for custom ROMs and playing around with your device.
4. Before flashing any ROM, should I update the stock phone to the latest version of radio, Android and Sense? Meaning all the automatic HTC updater offers.
Like I said, I'm a noob. That's why I'm asking. Don't want to brick the phone with the first flash. There are so many threads and posts and ROMs compared to the HOS scene that I want to be sure.
Thank you very much!!!

1. if ur HOX is tegra 3 based then yes u can flash it
2. yes the process is same as we still don't have S-Off
3. u can flash some custom kernels for better performance and battery
4. no need of it, you can directly flash any custom ROM, just make sure to make a nandroid backup before flashing
Well HOX has very good developer community and we are so lucky to have such good developers who have been working hard to make our experience better with our HOX
Here u will get a great dev support and u will be happy that u made a switch to HOX
Thanks a lot.
But why shouldn't I install all the updates since afaik radio cannot be updated via custom ROM?

You can install updates if you want
Even after rooting you can upgrade radio in custom Rom you just can't update hboot after rooting though there is a process but its tricky

Yes, TB works flawlessly you can restore back but few apps might not work if you restore both app and data
Just keep that in mind

Hi my wife has a One V with stock everything. It keeps freezing up and takes up to 1 minute just to open a new text message.
The phone has never been rooted or modified in any way.
I tried rebooting it, doesn't change anything. She does not have many apps installed at all from the market, maybe 1 or 2.
The way I fixed it last time was back up all of her sms and call log and setting and I did a factory reset.
This solved the problem but the phone was slowing getting worse and worse and now it is almost impossible to use it.
Is this a know issue? Is there an easy fix for it? Or maybe the only option is to root and install a custom rom for her.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks
I do indeed give you the advice to install a custom rom. This is a known issue with the stock rom.

Why do u think custom roms are made?

Great I had a feeling it was ROM related. Since I have no experience with One V, can anyone suggest a good how to guide to unlocking boot loader, and rooting, and installing CWMR on this phone. Every device is different so it is like leaning all over again for each phone.
oh yeah any rom suggestions? Not sure if I should give her a stock based sense rom or AOSP / CM. Personally I love AOSP Jelly Bean 4.2 on my S2 because I hate Samsung bloat on my phone.
thanks alot.
Personally I would recommend 4.1 or 4.2 depends if she needs the functions that are still missing from 4.2 (biggest one being camera I think) if she wants sense I recommend suprimo. As for a guide, there are some as a sticky in one of the sub forums (I think their in general)
Sent from my HTC One V using xda premium
I suggest you look for provision or pacman 19.3 in cdma (from what I can assume your CDMA) they have 5mp camera which is what the stock camera has. Note: the difference for flashing between a Samsung s2 and our device is we have to take the boot.img from the ROM.zip we DL and flash it in fast boot (thing before you enter recovery) after we flash the .zip in recovery
I recommend twrp recovery also because i find it easier to navigate
ONE MORE THING:
Power + down vol to get to fast boot and tell us what radio you have.
IF it ends in .0928 your going to get boot loops if you flash a JB ROM simple fix I'll tell you if it does because it is a complex process.
However if our radio ends in anything else you should be fine (htc had an ota that upgraded radio and it fked things up).

I've never been very tech-y with this stuff, and now I'm having problems with mine. I don't understand the ROMs or anything. I don't want to void the warranty or anything.
Well assuming the rules here. You can't install a rom here. Because for that you have to unlock the bootloader and doing that voids the warranty.

Phone: HTC ONE V (Virgin Mobile, CDMA)
Radio: 1.00.00.0928
Recovery: TWRP 2.2.0
ROM: myOne 9.5
Hi! I'm having a very frustrating issue wherein my phone randomly restarts after booting it up. I installed the myOne 9.5 ROM and it worked fine. But then I tried to install a CM9 ROM and it started doing the restarting. After a few times of this it did actually boot, and seemed to be working, but restarted after probably 30 seconds and just kept doing that. So I tried to switch back to the myOne ROM, but it did the same thing. So instead I tried flashing a stock ROM and kernel. No dice. Same thing.
Not sure what I'm doing wrong here or how to get it working again. When I flash the ROMs I follow this order: wipe Dalvik, cache, system, factory reset, flash ROM, reboot to fastboot, flash boot image.
Should I be doing something differently? Thank you for listening and any help you can provide would be much appreciated.
Your problem is your radio. You need either to run the ruu for your carrier, which is what I had to do, or puck a Rom with ota support. I know that there are a few in the development thread that are confirmed working.

i don't think that it is the radio, because the ROM I was using worked just fine before I tried flashing the other one.
When you flashed myone, it is a sense kernel....they just added support for ota yesterday. Rhythmic Rom should work as well and may save toy from even needing to run ruu.

Thank you both for the help. You were right, it was the radio. For any other noob who finds this thread with the same problem AND the same phone (make sure you don't use this file if you're GSM): I fixed the problem by relocking the bootloader and running the RUU (search for: RUU_PRIMO_C_ICS_40A_Sprint_WWE_VM_1.08.652.6_Radio _1.00.00.0521_2_NV_VM_3.46_0503_PRL61008_release_2 62414_signed.exe)
This got me back to stock and reverted the radio to an older version that is compatible with most of the ROMs.
Again, thanks everyone for the help.
Great job.....now have fun!
