Hey, I am looking for some help installing viper x (cant post in developer section so trying here), I was using it on previous version but since 2.0.0 I cannot get past HTC splash screen, I have tried Fastboot erase cache which didn't work. I have flashed the correct boot.img before installing the rom, other roms work and have browsed through tonnes of pages on the thread for viperx and found nothing so I am confused, any help???
Thanks
HTC One X
Rom : ARHD 9.3.0
Baseband : 2.1204.135.20
Ril : 2.17.401.2

I have flashed it multiple times, Im currently on stock kernal which the viper x supports
Pretty sure the boot.img you're flashing is wrong.
viper x help
Ok so I just went through the steps again but with the venom flasher aswell
1. flashed stock kernal using latest venom flasher
2. fastboot flash boot.img taken from the viper x rom itself
3. fastboot erase cache
4. aroma installer installed rom
stuck on HTC splash screen, any ideas???
Did you take it out of the Rom again, just now, and then flash the ROM and boot.img?
Or are you using one you prepared earlier?
2. Fastboot flash boot boot.img then erase cache then in recovery wipe data cache dalvik then install rom from recovery

before flashing boot img did u use command fastboot erase cache
and after that before installing ROM did u perform full wipe, erase cache and dalvik cache
after installing ROM u have to immediately install GAPPS before first bootdid u flash them?
Yes, I did.
What is the next trick? Do I need to reflash?

Try another 'fastboot erase cache' in the bootloader and see what happens. If still a bootloop, then post the EXACT steps you took when trying to get the ROM loaded
ive just installed this rom from here using cwm
http://www.androidauthority.com/one-x-android-4-0-4-slim-ics-custom-rom-99065/
the rom installed fine but is when reboot it is stuck in a boot loop.
The problem i am having is that CWM wont mount into USB for me to load another rom.
Any suggestions???

I think this should be in the Q&A section
Having said that, did you flash the boot.img via fastboot on your computer (fastboot flash boot boot.img)? Also did you use the command fastboot erase cache? If not, try those

yep did flash the boot img
didnt to the erase cache
how do i go about doing that?

And it was the boot.img you took from the rom download from the zip?
You go on cmd if you're windows, navigate to your fastboot folder
Type...
cd c:/(directory of your fastboot folder)
Mine would be
Cd c:/android
Then type
Fastboot erase cache
Ensure your device is in fastboot USB mode in the bootloader first.

Unfortunately the ptocess com.android.phone has stopped
So what i have tried to do is delete Slim ICS, and install a new fresh rom from cynogen,, but it keeps booting to Slim ICS
Am i doing things correctly
Boot into CWM
Delete Data/Factory Reset
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Install ROM
Reboot

First and foremost upgrade to latest cwm 5.8.4.0 as earlier versions have usb mounting and charging issues. Once upgraded you can copy your desired rom and then flash.
In your steps, I didn't see flashing the boot.img that comes inside the rom.zip file. You should flash it using fastboot from your pc with
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Before you boot your ROM. Otherwise, since cwm can't flash it, you will be booting whatever kernel is already installed.

Hi guys, the title say it all.
i did a full wipe in recovery, installed cm10, and flashed the boot.img, but i am still stuck at the boot screen for cyanogen mod.
any ideas?
did you do the "fasboot erase cache" command?
What hboot do you have? If it's newer than 1.12 you need a different boot.img.
how do i run the clear cache?
i think i have hboot 1.2 or something like that. which boot.img should i use?
i have hboot 1.36
just like flashing the boot.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Flash this boot.img
http://db.tt/uDdWaAtH
thanks a bunch. this worked great!!
in the future, when i want to try out different roms, do i need to use this same boot image?
Always use rom-specific boot.imgs found inside rom.zip.
If the ROM needs a different boot.img, it will be said in ROM thread's OP.

No, each ROM has its own boot.img.
Hi everyone,
I have flashed the vemon viper x 3.3.7 successfully onto my htc one x s-on but it wont update to 3.3.8. It downloads onto my phone through the software updates setting but when it is installing it bounces onto the recovery and the recovery starts installing but it aborted. How do i get around this to install the update??
Which recovery do u have?

I guess you have cwm recovery. This is a known issue with with cwm.
To install , manually go in recovery, install zip from sdcard, navigate to downloads folder and you will find venom update 3.3.8.zip
flash it.
OR
you can twrp recovery which will automatically update viperX.
NOTE: 3.4.0 was released which is a full ROM. i recommend you flash that(after a nandroid ofcourse)

Yes I had the same issue. Also wouldn't work manually from the zip either.
TWRP recovery worked like a charm for me and personally I feel it's a better recovery.

Can i flash TWRP straight into recovery?
Just flash it like any other recovery
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache
It will override the old recovery
I know that there are similar thread's on this forum but I didn't find solution anywhere.
A couple of days ago I rooted my htc desire hd (android 2.3.5). After that I tried to flash several custom roms (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1876127 ; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1839004 ; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=840040). I entered recovery (btw I have clockworkmod 5.0.1.0), wiped data/factory reset, wiped cache partition and wiped dalvik cache. Then i installed custom rom. I rebooted my phone and it stuck on htc bootscreen for several hours.
If anyone has even some idea what to do, please post it. Tnx
Did you make your phone Radio S-Off and ENG S-Off?

no, tnx, i'll try that
Wait. The S-Off tool, AAHK, has been retired. You need to fastboot flash a EDIT: boot.img. Instructions are in post #7 of the the link in my signature. You need to do this each time you flash a ROM.
If you're s-on the procedure is to install the rom with whatever recovery you are using then you have to fastboot flash the roms boot.img
With s-on the boot.img cannot be flashed by the recovery.
Extract the boot.img from the rom zip and fastboot flash the boot.img from your pc
Hope this helps

Hi i have the exactly same problem. Rooted my stock DHD by easy root tool. so its unlocked but s-on(not that it should matter?)
I om on CMW touch from this forum and tried first to install Viper. but in aroma when i choose full wipe It stops in the installer and says innstall finish.
The only way it will install is to choose dirty install. then it installs but I'm stuck on HTC boot screen (the withe one)
I we tried to wipe cache. Dalvik. Factory. Mounted and un mounted everything. Different SD card. different CMW recovery, Fix recovery+++
Tried to find a versjon of ext4 zip that i can flash from cmw recovery i use now but havent found anything.
Iwe tried ruu but it says that it dosent support my rom.
Iwe gone back to ginger bread with android revolution 6.5.
But NOTHING helps nothing gets me past this F.......G boot screen.
My phone is bricked ? and I'm considering flushing it down the toilet =/
Coming from samsung and several years of flashing I always had ODIN to rely on if something went on.
This is my first HTC and it will be the last if i dont manage to fix this.
Please help me . and please explain it simple- to a htc noob.
Thanks
It Worked!!!
