I was using Coredroid until I decided to give Cyanogenmod a try.
I used Clockworkmod to download the latest stable release of Cyanogenmod.
I chose not to wipe any data and continued to flash CyanogenMod.
After installation is complete and during the boot up of CyanogenMod, the boot up screen got stuck. The animation of Android robot on the skateboard kept repeating itself almost every minute.
So I removed the battery and tried again. It got stuck at the Cyanogenmod boot up screen*.
I removed the battery again and wipe data and cache as well as factory reset in Clockworkmod recovery.
Now I still stuck at the HTC boot up screen for the past 20 minutes.
===Update===
I did a restore and tried to boot up again. It's still stuck at the HTC boot up screen.
Please give me advice.
Thanks...
*Boot up screen is the white background + green HTC logo screen.
First of all you should always do a full wipe before switching roms. Secondly, wiping it after the flash only makes it worse as you might have noticed.
To fix this, download CyanogenMod and full wipe and put both zip files on your sd card. Boot into CWM recovery, flash the full wipe zip and then the cyanogenmod zip.
When I flashed Coredroid, I don't have to wipe data so I assumed it's okay not to do it.
But now I learnt it the hard way.
I've done what you said, Hawk. It's now up with CyanogenMod.
Now I just have issues adding my Google account in it. It's the Exchange settings which I didn't have to enter in HTC Sense but now have to.
I will post it in another thread.
Thanks, Hawk!

So I decided to root my DHD yesterday. Everything worked fine until I installed CyanogenMod 7, that went on a boot loop so I went in recovery tried to restore the phone (restore to last backup and even factory settings) but now I'm just stuck with the HTC bootscreen and I don't know what I can do.
Any advice?
Thanks.
P.S I'm pretty noob at this
Can you provide some more information about the process. Which version of CWM are you using?
Reboot into CWM, do wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, and wipe Dalvik cache, then install CM again...
Well I've restore the phone with a new RUU file. What happens is now when i restore my phone through clockwork, my phone gets stuck on the HTC boot screen, making me have to restore the phone with the RUU file.
Installed gederom, kept wiping, caches, dalviks, flash, reboot, always go past TWRP and into that boot animation - robot with CM9 near it.
Never goes past this point.
What am I to do?
Factory Reset flash the ROM again followed by gapps. should be fine then
yeah wipe all just dont wipe your sd card flash rom flash gaps if needed and go to mount and make sure there are no checks in the boxes of system and data if so uncheck them then reboot

Did you charge full your KF battery?
Hey guys,
Got a very weird problem here. I have previously flashed a CM10 nightly to my One X (international) and everything has been fine for around 3 weeks. Decided i wanted to try our the ViperX ROM. Previously upon flashing this ROM it just bootlooped but after another try with a slightly different method, i managed to get it to boot and all was merry. After titanium restore i rebooted, and this once again put me into a bootloop. Cannot get the ROM to boot. Why is this!!! Switched back to CM10. :good:
You need to do
fastboot flash boot boot.img
You may have done
fastboot boot boot.img

Still doesnt boot man, im sure i flashed the boot image properly. This is the rundown of my flash process:
1: install from sd
2: in recovery, factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvic cache
3: Boot into fastboot and flash the boot.img
4: Reboot.
So it booted but into viper X, but after restoring with Titanium i was unable to get it to boot again.
I also tried "fastboot erase cache" to no avail
In fastboot type fastboot erase cache

Did you restore system apps or data?
Where does it stop booting, what is on the screen?
With tb, make sure you restore user apps only, none of the system apps.

Sorry forgot to mention I also used the "fast book erase cache" command.
As for titanium I restored all user apps and data and now that you mention it that could be the problem. I'll have another crack tomorrow and let you know.
Main reason I want to switch is I need much better battery life than CM10 but only temporarily. Can anyone recommend viperx as being a significant improvement?

It comes up with "HTC" vibrates then the viper crawls across the screen and it stops at the "htcONE" logo.
Restored apps and app data and guess what. Still doesn't boot. WHY! Going to just try apps, no data at ALL. Will report back.
I dunno why it won't start, double check you have the right boot.img (download it again and flash it again), in recovery erase cache and dalvik cache.
same issue
Hi i am also getting the same problem, i used the viper rom and others but it goes past the HTC logo looks as though it works but the lock ring is froze up and then it reboots itself over and over doing the same thing each time. Ive tried One_X_All-In-One_Kit_v1.2 and the manual CMD fastboot tutorial i dont know what to do to fix this, can anyone help me please?
EDIT* I seem to have it working now (fingers crossed), i used 'Nocturnal_Special_Edition_4.0_Odex' so thx to their good work that i now have a working rom for my phone phew
EDIT 20 MIN LAter* OK looks like i did something i shouldnt, it seemed to work, i made a change in the settings and then it rebooted and continued to reboot over and over so i tried installing a rom again and now it just stays at the htc quietly brilliant screen, what have i done this phone is now not so brilliant as its looking more and more that ive goosed it Any help apreciated.
boot.img
Help please
Hello,
I have 1x (CID 203) unlocked and rooted with cwm recovery. I had Cyanogenmod 10 nighly on it, well in hope of no bugs like in CM10 I flashed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1763240 to it. Well it seemed to work a moment but then the device started rebooting randomly. I couldn't boot to recovery (strange?), the recovery screen flashed less than a second and the phone started to boot normally again. After a few tries (and reflashing recovery) I luckily got into the recovery. Tried to restore a nandroid backup which I made earlier yesterday. CWM said that the restore was successful but the device didnt boot anymore. Only shows htc logo and cyanogenmod loading screen. But nothing happens. Well, then I flashed Android Revolution HD 10.3. (with wiping the system data and so on) but it wont load any longer than the htc one logo screen. Rom installed fine and I flashed the boot.img.
Now I'm able to get into recovery and fastboot and charge my phone but how could I safely and surely return my phone to stock or make the ARHD work without completely bricking it? I'm thinking that relocking my device is not very safe if the RUU fails to install. What do you think? Can the firmware updates cause this problem to happen? Can I flash ARHD 9.7.2 to my device? Too bad I can't ask these questions in the ARHD thread....
In bootloader my phone says
Code:
hboot-0.94.0000
radio 1.1204.104.14
Any advice is highly appreciated, I'm not ready to bury my phone yet
Edit. ARHD 9.7.2 flashed correctly. Any ideas why the ARHD 10.3 keeps bootlooping? Yes, I have flashed the correct boot.imgs.

If I restore apps only it does boot however any sort of data and it refuses to. Very annoying as I am not able to retain texts accounts etc. I have a feeling it's because I originally backed up on a jellybean ROM and the data just doesn't want to work on ics

Try the fast boot erase cache command and see if that solves the boot issue. If not make sure in recovery your have cleared cache partition performed a factory reset and also cleared the dalvik cache. Again if none of these work try re flashing the boot.img or perhaps try another rom that is known to be stable.
I am on Liquid Smooth 2.9 (4.2.2) and using TWRP 2.6.3.0 phone is an i747m 32GB model. I tried upgrading to LS2.10 which is 4.3. Installed ROM OK but after first reboot phone froze on the Samsung logo. It wouldn't even get the the boot animation. I tried several methods of flashing as requested but to no avail. Today I tried the latest nightly of Carbon ROM which is 4.3.1 and encountered the same issue. I tried rebooting after flashing GAPPS and it just froze at the Samsung logo without going to boot animation. I did flash the latest bootloader in between while trying to diagnose as well.
Does anyone have any suggestions or similar situations? I would really like to upgrade to a 4.3 ROM but seem to have hit a hurdle...
Thanks in advance.
So I've had a little time to try some other things. I've verified the MD5sum of all files trying to flash. All are good. I've tried installing the latest nightly of Carbon ROM after doing a full wipe of all internal. I haven't formatted my external yet. Flashed ROM and phone boots fine. I've tried flashing GAPPS both during initial flash, after initial flash and not at all. In every case the phone boots fine after the initial flash and functions perfectly. It will not boot a second time at all. In all cases so far on reboot it just stays on the Samsung logo screen and I've left it for about a half hour just to make sure it isn't that I'm not waiting long enough. I hold the power button for 8 seconds and then boot into recovery. I've tried doing a factory reset and rebooting. No go. I've tried refreshing the ROM and it still won't boot after. I haven't taken a logcat yet as I just haven't had time but I'm really confused why multiple ROM's. I've currently restored back to 4.2.2 liquidsmooth 2.9.
I'm really hoping someone has a suggestion or that they've come across this before.

When you flash the ROM, are you wiping dalvik cache as well as wiping all data/ factory reset and cache?

I have the same, CM10.2, Quantum. First boot is ok. but after reboot phone freeze on samsung logo and recovery TWRP 2.6.3.0 needs password. I cant make any wipes, cant restore backup - needs password. Update last bootloader, before flashing made wipe /system /data /cache /dalvik, after - wipe /cache /dalvik /data againe - nothing, second boot only logo,
Could some one tell me, what I do wrong?

At least it's not just me....unfortunately I don't have much time lately so I haven't been able to try experimenting. I noticed you are using TWRP as well....I may try flashing CWM if I get a sec and see if the results are the same. Also if the same happens and I have enough time I'll try and grab a logcat. If I don't have time it's called wipe and restore from a backup.
And yes Dalvik + cache are always wiped anytime I flash anything as a minimum. With this issue I have been doing an entire internal format. I have tried just wiping cache and Dalvik when it occurs as well as fixing permissions but still doesn't boot. Wish I had more time latrely to narrow it down.
Yes, its work. I flashed stock ROM 4.1.2, then root device, flash CWM 6.0.2.3 (no touch) and flash Quantum 2.20. But I think, problem not in recovery or device. Problem in Titanium Backup, I used it to restore some system apps and accounts, now I restored only call log and SMS.
I have now tried flashing with TWRP and pulling SD card before initial boot to eliminate an SD card issue. I've set to not install backups from Google as precaution. Still the same result of frozen at Samsung logo.
I've then flashed the newest CWM non-touch and wiped all with flash. The result was even worse. This time it wouldn't even boot the first time for initial setup it just hangs at the Samsung logo.
This is starting to get frustrating just due to the fact of me not having a huge amount of time to dedicate to isolating the issue. I need to get a logcat but I am not usually near a computer to ADB to it when it is not booting. If I have time this weekend I'll try and get a logcat to post up.
CWM broke it real good! LOL! Anyways I couldn't even get my backups to restore. I tried taking a logcat while it was frozen but was not able to get an ADB connection in order to even get a logcat. I managed to push a fresh copy of Liquidsmooth 2.9 to the SD card and install it. Then flashed TWRP back. Then restored my back up. What a tedious task to still be scratching my head as to why multiple 4.3 ROM's won't boot on the second boot after flashing...
It's been resolved! As per an awesome person on Carbon's G+ thread don't flash the ROM from external SD .Only flash it from internal storage!
Hi all, hoping this is a stupidly simple fix. I wanted to update to latest stable CM7 and so downloaded and flashed it from CWRecovery,
I also ran the factory reset, and cleared the cache.
When I boot, it shows the blue loading screen, then comes to the "Welcome to ADR6300" and reverts to the CyanogenMod7 loading screen..
Then, it keeps bouncing back and forth between these two screens until I pull the battery...
You didn't mention the order of what you did. Assuming you have no valuable data, I would just start over.
Reboot into recovery
Wipe system
Factory reset
Flash ROM
Flash GAPPs (if desired)
Reboot into ROM
Also, ensure you're on the latest CWM, first.

Worked perfectly! Thank you!!
Apparently the problem was having the wrong version of GAPPs. I was reinstalling but Wiping system was the step I had skipped!
