The title says it all. I rooted, and went through the steps here ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1819040[1] ). Jelly Bean installed and runs, but once booting and entering the OS it reboots after a few seconds. Can someone please point me in a direction on how to fix this, or tell me the problem. Thank you.

Hello.
I tried wiping everything and doing this, and basically it worked. But it is still rebooting, at what seems to be, the same time after loading each time. It will run for a while, and then after maybe 20-30 seconds, it will lag once, and then continue for ~2 seconds, and then lag again, and then turn off and reboot. It did this during CyanogenMod installation, and is doing it now in the OS. I can navigate the OS, apps, etc, for a few seconds until it restarts.
Any help you, or anyone else, could give would be wildly appreciated. I hope we can solve this so I can use my phone again, thank you all for your time.
EDIT:
My story, as short as possible. I got a new HTC One V from Virgin Mobile. Wanted to install Jellybean. Rooted it and installed ClockWorkMod. Used ClockWorkMod and normal methods to install a ROM of Cyanogen I found (listed in OP). That didn't work, kept rebooting as mentioned in OP. Deleted everything. Tried RUU stuff without really knowing what I was doing. Didn't work as expected. Gave up. Tried this Cyanogen ROM posted above. Still rebooting.
If you need anymore information about my phone model, or something else, just ask. I really need to get this fixed so I can use my phone. Thank you all again for your help.
You have to copy the boot.img from the ROM zip and paste it in your fastboot window and run command
fastboot flash boot boot.img

And read the forums before posting what thousands of other had already asked....and gotten answered.... XDA RULES
So i made the mistake of doing the HTC ONE V OTA update back in march.
It was the "Software Update: 1.10.652.6 (73.1 MB)".
After doing so i tried to flash a custom rom.
The result was my phone being stuck in a boot loop.
I bought a cheap android phone and switched my number to that phone.
I saw that the RhythmicRom v1.4 worked with the OTA update and so i flashed my HTC ONE V to that rom and it stopped my phone from boot looping and so my phone works again.
My only problem is that for me to switch back to my HTC ONE V is to switch it back though the VIRGIN MOBILE website.
After i switch it tells me i need to use the "Activate" set up wizard.
RhythmicRom removed the "Activate" and "My Account" app.
I also cant use ##VIRGIN# with this rom
My question is, How do i reactivate my HTC ONE V without the "Activate" set up wizard?
I really want to use this rom.
Ive tried to look for ways to do it and tried them but none of them work.
Ive also tried some ## codes but some of them dont work or require some security code.
Is there anyway to reactivate my phone using that rom?
I hope you made backup of your stock. You wil lneed to restore it and flash the stock kernel in fastboot. You will then be able to activate it.
the only backup i have its the one before the update. ive tried to use it before but it just reverts me back to a bootloop. now that my phone had been updated it doesnt seem to work anymore.

ok so i tried it. the rom wouldn't work. it has done this with many roms ive tried. it seem the only ones that are working are RhythmicRom_v1.4 & jellybeer. maybe it has to do with the code?
but i tried the boot.img from your rom combined with my backup that i made before the update and it booted up finally without any reboot problems but the wifi had an error in it.
but i then went to reboot to double check to see if it was working it booted past the virgin mobile part (with the people dancing) got to the htc logo and it wouldn't go past that.
when i tried to use you're rom it would come up as "Failed" i dont think the code is compatible with my phone.
What version recovery are you using... I'll look into it
im using TWRP 2.5.0.0
Down grade to the one I have posted in the 3rd post in CDMA development thread
---------- Post added at 11:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 AM ----------
2.5.0.0 will always say failed because it's trying to format a partition or your sdcard that does not exist
i will try it out thanks!
Welcome
so i tried flashing twrp v2.2.0 and for some reason it wont mount my sd card so it cant read it at all.
Do you have ADB checked under settings?
---------- Post added at 03:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:01 PM ----------
P.S. whenever you are in fastboot mode send command
fastboot erase recovery (press enter)
You'll probably get an error but move on and send command
fastboot erase cache
Now send command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
This should give you a clean install of your recovery
If the problem persists, I'll take down the link for the TWRP 2.2.0 in my thread
when i got my phone, i went and tinkered with everything and had a custom rom on there before i got a chance to activate it as well, i ended up RUU'ing back to stock to activate, then going to a normal rom, ever since then, i've never needed to go back... hope this helps!
How do I get into settings?
And to the other person, with the new ota update ruu won't work with my phone.

I'm pretty sure I have it set up properly. I haven't had a problem with it yet. I just didn't know there was a way to fully wipe the recovery. Thanks for that info. Next time I have internet I will try it out. For now I'm stuck using this rom. it works pretty good just a bit buggy.

There is a link for a rollback update, but i'm not home. When I get there, I send it. About battery, try to use greenify to help it to last long.
You can't just try to use a full package because of versioning scheme they use.
Here http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G79/g0/v72696/f1/full/update.zip

Hmmm, sorry, I thought it would help. In fact, the package is listed as a rollback to M, but it is for CAN-L11. The rollback for CAN-L01, I didn't find. As there isn't many differences between those models, I thought it would work
EDIT: now that I read the op again, I noticed that your model is CAN-L11. I wonder why it didn't work
Houamei said:

No, it won't.
The reason behind this is because system partition get smaller (because nougat way of update) after updating it to emui 5. So the old system.img won't fit the new partition
My phone only hangs up at 5% when the usb cable is connected. When i open the download mode without connected usb cable, it works.

Did the same thing, but first TWRP didn't find the backup. So i did a small backup just of the boot partition, so that TWRP makes a new backupfolder "FPF4C16A07000014"". Now i renamed the " FPFDU16930014596" to the new "FPF4C16A07000014" and TWRP found the backup and i was able to restore :highfive::highfive:
Small Addition:
It was a freaking fight to get my bootloader unlocked again, cause i lost the unlock code.
The websites (english and asian) are freaking BS. Was not able to get to the page where you get the code, so i downloaded DC-Tool and payed 4 dollars for the damn code.
Now the code is saved in my owncloud, dropbox, google drive, on a sheet of paper and google notes. No way to lose it again
B100 firmware is much smoother than B320 but has a lack of comfort, like i'm missing the new quick settings with double pull down and the touch responsibility of slide bars (like the volume bars) is not very good in B100... But i won't upgrade to 320 again, because of the following points that make it a no go for daily driver:
- Camera is very slow and hangs up
- Video playback is very slow and buggy (no matter if it's in the galery or youtube, ect.)
- Fingerprint is too slow
- Whole system gets very slw if you dont clean up the app history
Will upgrade again when there is a new version out
please am having same issue here. tried restore but still not booting.
problem is cust. what do i do about it.

Well, that rabbit went into quite the hole... hehe
However, at the other end was a person who restored an old backup to revert this problem... And I -MAYBE- have an old backup on my external hdd, but won't that wipe all data that has been written to my phone since that "MAYBE" backup?
The other suggestion was wiping my MISC-partition using commands through ADB - something I have no clue how to setup and/or execute.
Still, thank you so much for your effort!
Reading all of this made me remember that one time I spaced out and tried to install an official firmware update upon release and prompt, which lead to the same issue. I could then just reinstall an older raw firmware version, which left all my files and data intact. Hopefully this will work here too.
BUT... It still feels very risky. If anyone out there has any sure-fire solution to this update Magisk Manager through the built-in updater no-boot issue, then please feel free to let me know - I would be forever in your debt
The best surefire solution is just don't. And BTW always backup before you flash anything in twrp.

That's what the update does. Reboots to twrp and installs the download. Maybe you should know what you're doing before you snap at us.

No, just restore the boot partition (16MB).
I learnt the hard way about backup, when years ago I didn't make one for my Galaxy S2 and lost everything (pictures, etc). Now after installing TWRP I always do a backup...
You should be able to reflash your boot partition with a fastboot command like "fastboot flash boot boot.img" (people with more knowledge than me can help you)
EDIT: the problem is that our Zenfone2 needs a signature for the boot partition, this is why we have a special Magisk installer that just add the signature to the image. The automatic update installer of Magisk has no clue about this, me and a few others here made the same mistake as you when Magisk popup "I have an update!" and we clicked "Install"...
All your data and app are still there, do not worry, no need to wipe anything, just reflash a signed boot.

Look... I am sorry if I "snapped" as you put it... But let's make one thing clear - I snapped at YOU; there is no "us" in this case, as you tried to skew it. Don't lump yourself together with these other helpful people, because so far you have nothing in common to me. If I were looking for someone to go "Hey, I got a solution - you know that thing you did? - Don't do it again!" I'd just go stand on the street corner with a sign asking for someone to slap my face.
As for your principal of don't do things if your not sure of how they work, I am totally behind that. But it has NOTHING to offer here as we are past that point. A broad comparison would be like "a solution to world hunger = eat food" ("but we don't have any food!" "you should have thought of that before you started starving now shouldn't you...?!").
In your defense, I guess you really believe you are trying to help. But compare your comment to the other ones posted and it is quickly clear that you are not. However, YOU ARE RIGHT, I should've known better and shouldn't do it again. And obviously I am enerved at this situation, but equally obvious (now) is that what you wrote is NOT "the best sure-fire solution" as what was posted afterward seems at least 100% (would have been more if possible) more applicable to my issue.
Anyway, I'll do the right thing here in the end, after having said so many things, and admit, once again, that I was wrong, you were right, I snapped for no good reason and you were just trying to help.
And I sincerely apologize for my rude behaviour. Hopefully now you can at least understand my reaction.
Also, fair is fair - Maybe TWRP flashes the update before it even enters into it. It would be the first I've EVER heard of something like that. But I am out of my element a bit here, so I will withdraw that comment and once again apologize for snapping at you because of it.

Basically, you are saying that I would, in theory, just have to use fastboot and flash boot.img (extracted from any firmware?) again, which I am very familiar with how to do, and presto - boot partition restored and working (once again, in theory)?
Sounds amazing!:good:

Is there any way to check from TWRP or using fastboot, or otherwise find out what version of the rom I have (had)?
I am definitely still on LolliPo... I think I am one or two official updates from the switch to MarshMallow... But how can I be sure?
WW_ZE551ML_2.20.40.139_sal358-amtech.vn
Last year sometime I ran into a similar problem, where I had to flash raw firmware in order to unbrick the phone... This is the firmware that I downloaded and flashed then.
However, within this .raw-file there is no boot.img ...? There are a couple of .img-files, but none named boot.
On a side-note: When I bricked it last year and had to flash this raw firmware, which I did with Asus Flash Tool, if I am not mistaken... However, whichever way I did it, I managed to flash and then boot as usual. The phone then updated all apps, and I was just blessed with this wonderful sight of "my phone" with all the apps, files and data still intact.
And this problem, which resulted in the same boot issue, came from trying to apply an official OTA update, just after rooting and unlocking the bootloader (forgot myself for just a moment there), which to me seems like a way more serious screw-up than what I just managed to do today...?
@dustylambo
You still boot to TWRP ?
Simple questions
check date of back ups , course you won't be able to restore but title will have builds.
What twrp build ?
Then....
Select reboot in twrp then power off in twrp .
Wait 15 seconds...
Power plus vol+ , you can now boot to bootloader.
What IFWI version ?
0094.0177 or .0173 is LP
0094.0183 is M
Flash relevant raw , without ticking wipe data in AFT.
Check my unbrick thread in my signature for AFT and links to raws
Enjoy

Yes, I still boot into TWRP.
I can't find my old backup for some reason, but after flashing the previously mentioned raw firmware I never up- or downgraded the ROM, so it MUST be that version. It's the only one I've ever downloaded and flashed.
IFWI version is 0094.0183
But so you are saying I could basically just flash [correct version FW].raw via AFT, without wiping data, and all should be good?
I am on your unbrick thread aws.
I will def bookmark it.
But I already have AFT and the same FW... so I could just go-go-go, right? Or is the IFWI version being M an issue?
Also, I downloaded the official Asus FW from their ZF2 website. In that .zip is in fact a "boot.img" - can I flash this via fastboot you think?
Thanks again for all your help!
You are unbelievable!
@dustylambo
0094.0183 is M
So flash a M raw.
You must've upgraded bootloader since flashing the last raw .139 which is LP to get to M bootloader .0183
In bootloader .0183
You flash raw for M, these have just been added by realyoti
drop him a thanks .
Flash without ticking wipe data in AFT
Damnit! I don't like where this is going... But it's late and I'm dumb
I never upgraded to M because I read that there were several apps that would lose support, MUSIC in particular, but there were others as well.
Will an M raw-file flash and still boot with all my old apps?
@dustylambo
It's simple really , what is the twrp build number ?
You never said
0094.0177
Is locked 5 LP bootloader.
.0173 is 5 unlocked bootloader
.0183 is M
What twrp build is yours ?
Ps , I don't think it matters which version raw you flash , only that it may fail and might have to wipe data to succeed which is better than what you have and are struggling with right now
gnite , enjoy

Pls , remember the reason you installed twrp initially ?
For backing up
Sounds like you didn't only update Magisk Manager, you update Magisk itself. A non-signed Magisk update will always result in bootloop.

To be corrected: Not the Magisk, but the repacked boot.img. ?

Place rom in root of storage and reboot. Once detected click to update. Reboot again to finish.
For those with root already and wishing to keep root, simply put the rom in root of storage, reboot and click to update when prompted. BUT, DON'T reboot yet when it finishes updating. Click 'later', go to magisk manager and choose 'install magisk'. When given the options for installing, select 'after OTA' (or words like that). Once magisk is installed again, select reboot. Root will be maintained. Saving the hassle of flashing the root img via fastboot.
-----------------------------------------
For those of you who are not yet rooted but would like to be using the boot img above, see below for guidance. NOTE: if something goes wrong, I am not responsible in any way!! Also, by unlocking bootloader (which is required for root), you will void your warranty.
Also note: you must update to latest 2004.9 rom from above links before starting this process. Should you wish to do this process another time with another update, you MUST ALWAYS match the root boot img for the same rom version you are using.
1. First you need to unlock the bootloader. Download and install the apk from link, then follow instructions. NOTE: doing this wipe the device. Do not power off the device or stop the process once started. I think the device will reboot a couple of times during the process, but ican't remember sorry... Just leave it to do its thing and once finished, proceed to step 2.
Get the bootloader unlock tool, which says in the description that it's compatible with android 10, from here. You'll find it under tools/utilities.
2. Download and install Minimal ADB and Fastboot app (windows). Install it on your PC/laptop to C drive
3. Download the root2004.9 boot img from above and move/save it to (C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder)
4. Switch the phone into fastboot mode (from device being in off/powered down, hold volume up then press and hold power button). Fastboot is the first screen you see with a scrollable menu giving some other options, don't select any options... just stay in that mode. Connect the phone to pc/laptop using the SIDE port of the phone. Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder and double click the cmd-here.exe, this will open a cmd window.
5. (optional, but recommended) Once your phone is connected in fastboot mode and you have your cmd window open, type 'fastboot devices' in the cmd window. If your device is recognised then a key/serial will be displayed. Providing this is shown, proceed to step 6.
6. Next you are going to flash the root boot img (which, if you followed the instructions, should be in the Minimal ADB folder). In the cmd window type 'fastboot flash boot magisk_patched2004.9.img'. Once completed without errors, your device will now have a rooted boot img flashed. Yey!!
7. Now you can go ahead and unplug your device and boot it up. I did this months ago when I first got the phone, so you'll have to forgive me.... I can't remember if magisk manager is installed during the above process or if you have to install it manually after. If, when you have booted to system, there is no 'magisk manager' in your app drawer, you'll need to install yourself from here scroll about half way down the page and you'll see the downloads section. Go for the latest stable (currently 7.5.1).
8. Download a root checker app from playstore to verify you have root and you're done. If you need to resort back to original boot img, download it from above and follow the same process, but instead type 'fastboot flash boot boot2004.9.img'.

bro,im not saying youre disturbing or whatsoever,you should make a detailed thread.unlike me im kinda dumb,i dont understand this Root boot img and so on. and making your own thread will allow more people will see your thread as i doubt many people will come to this thread to read...
Can anyone check to confirm whether heating is still on an issue on the new version?

Nah, should be fine here. People will still see the update in your title and click to view content. And for those that want root who are not already rooted I'll add some instructions in a while or tomorrow about how to use the boot img's (on my phone right now, it's easier if I do it on pc). Links and details are only the second post on the page so people will still see the info they need. So yeah, if it's OK with you I'll just leave the content here rather than starting another thread with the same title

I'd like to shed some light on this for you but I'm not a heavy gamer (I assume that's when the device gets hot mainly) and have never had any heating issues with any of the builds

Hmm, you should be able to update from latest A9 (1910.64) to A10. I'm guessing that the updater app only downloads the small incremental updates. These will fail unless you update 1 by 1, going up one version each time.
If you wanna jump straight to latest update (currently this one) download the FULL rom zip from post 2 of this thread. Put that in root of storage and reboot. Should hopefully not fail now and you'll be on latest.

Thanks man. Basically I had issues on A10 heating up even while just browsing the web. I would open up Armory Crate > Console and the CPU temp would be around 40+ Celsius. So now I'm back on A9, which shows temps of 30 Celsius with normal use.
well, video recording while connected to usb mic still doesn't work with the asus camera app

So the incremental worked direct from 1910.64 to latest? Or you had to go through each incremental?

Man that sucks. I've had zero heating issues even with leaving X mode on permanently @120Hz
Had to do this with each incremental update!

I've also suffered from battery and performance issues in A10. A9 was just fabulous, A10 was a step back.
I'm also a heavy gamer and just updated so I'll be sure to let you know what's going on.
P.S I did manage to improve performance and some battery life by installing the only real custom kernel we have, but which is a great one - kirisakura + Naptime with doze on Google play services.

I had the same problem with the incremental update. Just use the full ROM linked in the op.
Thanks for the Rooted Image.
Hi just chasing the raw rom if anyone has it please!
