Hi,
Im using "fastboot boot [name].img" to test the kernels before flashing.
It successfully transfer it and boots, but its stuck at the Google logo.
Code:
C:\android-sdk\platform-tools>fastboot boot gnex_uv.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.439s]
booting...
OKAY [ 0.283s]
finished. total time: 0.722s
Am I doing something wrong, or is it a bug?
That isn't enough. You have to set some paths like where is system partition as well as init and what's the type(format) of system partition.

But the "boot" command lets me test out the kernel before flashing, or am I completely wrong?

Be aware of the android version of your rom and the kernel you are trying to boot. For instance, Franco's kernel will not boot below android 4.0.3.

I'm aware of that, but this is happening for all kernels.
Franco's, Matr1x and the 1.4GHz overclock + Undervolting kernel.
What ROM are you using? Is it an IML74K (4.0.3) one?

No, Im using a 4.0.2 ROM (Android Revolution 2.1.1)
I know some of the kernels are 4.0.3 compatible only, but all of them
Anything built from the 4.0.3 kernel source will require a 4.0.3 ROM.

Does the cwm version wipe data and internal SD card? Also I notices that is contains a recover image, does it write the stock version, or is it a cwm version?

stock is stock recovery..
rooted is CWR.
None of the updates wipes data and a data wipe is not needed.
OK can this be done via the bootloader? I'm stock rooted and able to pull up cwm from power up. Or is this just doing it with adb?

I Can't get it to work, if I flash through CWM, it will start the update and abort without a detailed error message.

You must be stock to use the updatin.zip...

Thanks. I guess I misunderstood.
I thought that by stock you meant stock (rooted) with CWM. Meaning not on another ROM like Tiamat ROM.
I am trying to find out that myself. I think we can use the first file from the third option and unzip it and just do a restore from cwm. I am on stock root myself.

Sorry about the no reply. No its my friends Evo 4G it isn't the lte. I have a custom recovery on it already, I just can't flash a boot.img file so that I can flash custom roms.

Thats the thing. Whenever I try to flash it threw the custom recovery it fails every time no matter the scenario. And on my friends HTC One X I know that I had to flash the boot.img for it to work. Everything is done properly on the EVO it is s-off rooted and everything it just won't except me flashing the rom. It is driving me nuts that I can't get this stupid thing to work.

I'm ****ed! I know that, and i know i'm screwed up big time! So point telling me that.
Let's take it from the top.
1) Used HTC One X (Tegra3) All-In-One Toolkit V1.2.2 . No problem here (beside that i didn't make a backup from start)
Kernel used: CWM 5.8.4.0
2) Transferred HTC One X - CyanogenMod 10 Nightlies -4.1.2 to my SD.
3) Wiped my phone.
4) Installed the ROM
5) Rebooted
6) ROM didn't boot at all!
I tried to find solutions on google, and i here. But no luck at all! I can't connect to my SD (Or i might, but just failed doing it), to put in a stock ROM.
Hope i've told all the correct info's. Otherwise, please ask.
Any help would be great. And again, no need to point out that i ****ed up, i already know that.

Q&A for [ROM] PureKat | Android 4.4 KitKat | More Than A Rom
Some developers prefer that questions remain separate from their main development thread to help keep things organized. Placing your question within this thread will increase its chances of being answered by a member of the community or by the developer. Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy! :smile:
Will there be an Android 5.0 PureKat?
With android L/5.0 creeping closer, will there be a PureKat based on it? It seems to have a lot of goodies in it for performance and battery life.
I've been using cm-7.2.0-vision for some time and decided to try this my first KK rom. My sd card slot is corrupted so I am using Flash without SDcard procedure. After using CWM 6.0.4.5 I was able to flash this rom. It boots successfully, but after "Upgrading Android" screen, it displays Cyanogen setup wizard screen (the one with lang choice) and restarts suddenly.
I have started with full wipe and no SD card inserted. After the first restart it will not display Cyanogen setup at all, just restarts before that. Cleaning Dalvik's cache will make setup wizard appear again just to reboot a second later.
Any ideas how to debug it ?
EDIT: Solved. Flashed coolOS ICS 1.5.1 with older CWM, that went fine. It allowed me to format the SD card from Android level and from that time I'm able to boot PureKat without bootloop. Also, magically, my SD card is recognized again and working fine for now.

Phone hangs during boot
Hi,
I tried to get PureKat working on my phone, but I can't get past the boot animation, it simply keeps spinning. I unlocked my bootloader with the htcdev method a few years ago and I have CWM recovery 6.0.4.5 installed. Flashing the image from the SD card succeeds without errors and I also explicitly flashed the boot.img using fastboot (fastboot flash boot boot.img). I also wiped the phone but that didn't help either. Any thoughts?
//edit: never mind, it works! It seems I just didn't wait long enough for it to boot
