Hi,
I was playing around with the installing Ubuntu on my DHD, i relaised that I need a kernel that has loopback support (I dont remember flashing a kernel the only thing i have flashed is the Virtuous Quattro Rom rc3_spade)
I flashed the GLaDOS-cfs-V2.10 kernel onto my DHD and rebooted it.
It then got stuck on the white HTC logo screen.
I can get into clockworkmod recovery and i tired to restore a backup i had made prior to flashing the kernel but it says md5 sum mismatch.
I'm slightly stuck, i'm not an expert on these things but i do know a but but at the moment i am completely stumped.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
EDIT:
I found a way to get it back i put the quattro rom back onto my phone using the command prompt and adb but i reflashed the quattro rom its now all fine and its all wokring but im wondering,
when i tried to restore the rom (after i had reflashed it), why did it come up with md5 sum mismatch still?
:S This is confusing me .....

I rooted it using simpleroot, and that worked fine, I could get into recovery, had superuser and all that, and then I was going to flash the latest cm6 nightly, and it hung at the splash screen, so I tried to get back into recovery to restore a nandroid backup I made (which is now mysteriously gone), but took me forever to get back into recovery, which I eventually did, wiped data, and installed WD-Slide 1.0.2 and now it's boot looping. I don't know what's wrong, but if someone can help, that'd be great
Read the rest of the thread for that ROM. Most people get stuck in a boot loop. Flash a different ROM.
Ah, thanks. I should have read through that, but I didn't think that that rom was the problem. I thought it was something I did in adb. know why the CM6 build would just hang at the splash screen though?
The nightlys aren't running right use eugenes version of cm6

Hi, i need a bit of advice.
I followed this guide (including Install engineering version of HBOOT to get S-Off):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841076
Everything went smoothly.
I did my backup of current Rom in Rom Manager.
Then downloaded and installed cm 6.1.3 and my phone now will not boot. It hangs on the HTC screen (before the quietly brilliant part)
I can still get into recovery so I tried Wiping and restoring the backup i did earlier, and it still won't boot. I downloaded the CM 6 file again just to double check and the same thing happend, still no boot.
Can anyone help?
Am i missing something completely obvious?
what version of recovery are you using ?

Have you tried to flash CM7 or other ROMS?
It's ok now all sorted. Yes I tried cm6 and cm7 but I figured out the problem. I had the new version of clockwork recovery (3) I downgraded to Pauls version over at modaco and worked great after that. So I'm guessing there is a problem with the new one.

I use rom manager premium and the touch recovery. I'm having issues installing and restoring roms. First problem is i'll download a rom, try to install, and for some reason it either completely boot loops or just goes back to cwm recovery after trying to reboot. Then when I try to restore to the backup I just made of the working rom it gives me an md5 mismatch error. I did not rename the backup file or put it into a different folder.
Twice I have gone back to complete stock, unrooted and then rooted again and tried and this same issue has come up.
I feel like this all may have started either with me trying an AOKP rom or trying a new 4.0.4 rom.
Any insight on this?
Thanks!
Try using a standard CWM recovery i.e NOT Touch! IIRC it caused a few issues in certain Circumstances
Currently i have been sat here for about half an hour waiting for RunnyMede AIO V6.0.4.3 too boot, and im just sat looking at the boot animation
Ive Checked MD5 Sums on the file and they are correct
I have been running Sandvold ICS and Cyanogenmod 7 for the last year and felt moving back too sense and so far i cant boot into any sense rom for some reason
I am on Stock Hboot
1gb EXT4 Partition
I have done a full whipe and i also use 4EXT Recovery Touch
Any Idea's?
Probably a very basic Answer to this but i cant find it >.<
Just pull the battery then boot into recovery, do full wipe, dalivik ect.. and try again.

Ive done that so many times >.<
Lol happened to me before when i tryed runny rom, took like 8 goes just to download it then bout 4 times to try and install it, it just kept on freezing when booting up. Why not try runnymede aio 6.1.1 s/e. Its very good.

Hi, I had similar problem with installing slim ICS for Desire [based Sandvold]. After couple of tries I notice, that problem seem be in boot.img, recovery didn't flash boot.img. Manual flash boot.img from your ROM zip archive over fastboot may resolve your problem too.
Thanks, may give it a go but just flashed cm7.2 and fallen back in love with it so ill take the knowledge on board again

He is saying you unzip the rom that you are trying to flash, then go into Fastboot and then use the command: fastboot flash boot.img
Personally never done it as i just gave up and moved onto cyanogenmod kangs, and there amazing currently
Not 100% sure about the command but someone will correct me if im wrong
Hey guys, got a problem here.
Today i wanted to try out the cyangenmod 10.1. I currently was on the icecoldjelly 421 2.0. After flashing the boot img and installing the cyanogen rom, after the reboot the rom keeps hanging on the load screen!
Tried erase cache but nothing worked. Flashed the boot.img from the rom(installer).
So that didnt worked. Brought back my phone to stock with a RUU. Everything works fine.
So again after this i installed cyanogen again... still the same problem, it hangs in the loading screen...
I thought maby the rom is faulty, so i installed the newest version of icecoldjelly 2.1, flashed the boot from the rom..... also with this rom it hangs on the loading screen.
Im no restoring my backup because i dont know what to do?
Im on hboot 1.36
pervious version of icecoldjelly 2.0 worked just fine.
So guys do you know what the problem could be? Never had thisbefore

After putting back my backup i tryed to install icecoldjelly 2.1 instead of cyanogen first.
What ive read and think i was forgotten was the full wipe of data before installing the rom. I now did this after reading again on the ICJ forum, and now the rom is working fine!!
CM should work too after a full wipe.
