Start here but without Odin, good luck!
What's wrong with Odin? What are you trying to do (or not do) specifically?

You use Odin once to root and flash recovery. After that, you use recovery to flash ROMs. ICS Roms are a special case since we have no working safe recovery on ICS kernels. Read the link I gave you, read the forums. Read read read.
recovery always sticks unless you flash a ROM or kernel that wipes it. Read the OP for roms and kernels.

Have tried flashing via recovery with no luck I end up getting stuck on white htc screen then tried through ROM manager and no luck I got the 7.2 release from cm website not sure what went wrong I'm rooted on android 2.3.4 and was not on any other ROM before trying this.

Might be better off with goo manager and installing twrp. Also when you have an issue, give as much detail so people can be more helpful

Well okay what more detail needed ?

Trying Goo manager although when I try to load twrp it forces close, someone help me I want to ROM this up. I'm rooted and have clockwork but have no luck flashing
Sent from my ADR6350 using xda app-developers app
Check the md5 sum and see if it matches up, or if ur lazy re-download the rom, just make sure its for incredible 2. It could be a bad download. Also I believe you have to flash the kernel after the rom as well

Okay some help here I know it was right ROM, how do I get right kernal ?
Sent from my ADR6350 using xda app-developers app
Roms have the kernel included no reason to flash different kernel unless you are wanting to change clock settings or voltages or fix problems such as volumes.

ClockworkMod is the recovery I started out with, it should work just fine and will not affect flashing a ROM. After a few weeks I switched over to 4ext recovery. But I would get a little more familiar before jumping around to much. Have you successfully flashed a custom rom yet? One other thing you may check is the radio version, I recommend upgrading to the .312 or .320 radio.
Not on this phone done rooting on nook color and my first Android so I need to flash a radio and a ROM ?

Download condemned cm.7.2 on your PC and put it in the root of your SD card. I hope you made a backup of your old ROM before you tried this seeing as you're not booting atm

Haha of course I made a backup and I'll try that

I haven't seen this answered (or I'm blind)...Are you S-Off, or HTC Unlocked?
I am s off help me
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Okay sorry correction I am only unlocked do I need to s off ?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Now everything makes more sense...The preferred method for flashing roms here is s-off. It can be done without. I believe the method involves extracting the boot.img from a rom then after flashing the rom, flash the boot.img with fast boot. I haven't done it, so I can't give you better details on that, however it is covered at length in many of the rom threads, so I think a search for "boot.img" should get you on your way quickly. You'll probably want to search with the desktop version of xda.
Edit: However, I think the consensus is that getting s-off isn't terribly hard and saves a lot of headache down the road, so I would recommend that. Again, there are threads with all the info you need.
Thank you, looked at s off method and going to try that tonight then I should be churning through Roms thank you !

No problem. I do have one more suggestion. When you are s-off and comfortable with things, find the twrp thread in development. It's my opinion, and I can't say I've tried all the options, but twrp is way easier to use than the normal CWM. There are other options you could consider; 4ext and CWM touch. It's all about the research around here.
To get this Kernal and cwm do i just flash it witb odin over my ff27 stock unrooted?

You might want to research more. Trying to flash a kernal on a stock unrooted phone could cause a brick. If you don't like to read, there are plenty of videos on YouTube explaining the process.

As the previous user stated, please do some more research. You cannot flash anything to an unrooted phone and it is dangerous (to the phone) if the process isn't done correctly.
Refer to this thread for more information and do a bunch of research before flashing anything:

Any roms here that arent cwm/twrp flahable zips that I can flash using odin and have a kernel with cwm or twrp? I'm coming from the sgs4g and haven't done anything to this phone yet. I looked around in the dev threads but unless I overlooked I only see cwm and twrp roms.

Why would u wanna odin when u can flash via one of those recoverys?
To me it's easier to just odin a rom with a custom recovery and have root then to go through any other process. Then again I haven't had a lot of spare time so I only glanced over the guide to do it for this phone.

Just read op instructions to a tee...usually its just wipe then flash..
So is it safe to root and flash roms on this phone? Im kind of confused when it comes to rooting.

It's no more unsafe than rooting/flashing on other devices. Just use this for root, GooManager or ROM Manager from the Play Store to flash either TWRP or CWM recovery respectively, and then whichever recovery you choose to flash the ROM of your choice. Not complicated at all, just make sure you read and understand the directions before doing it. If you're unsure of something, read more and search. I won't say every single scenario about rooting and flashing has been covered, but chances are any questions one may have, have already been covered.
The point is that if you feel unsecured about rooting thinking somethin is gona go wrong then give it to someone who has experience at rooting and you'll have nothing to worry about.. Read the stickies on the android development and it will give you info of what you want and need to know
