Take out the battery. Put it back in and start your phone again. If the same happens repeat the battery pull but this time hold down on the volume bar and THEN press the power button to restart your phone. After it starts up in bootloader select recovery by moving the volume bar and then hit the power button again. This will bring you back to recovery where you can flash the rom again or restore your backup.

Thanks im restoring my backup now. I thought i had bricked my phone or something. i just rooted my phone so this was my first ROM that i was flashing so I wasn't sure of what to do.

I know this going to sound stupid, but can anybody point me to a guide or video on how to flash roms? Im new to all this so I dont want to mess anything up.

Note: Start @ 3:15. In the video clockwork mod is black/green but that's just because its an older version, the newer version is black/orange. All the steps are still the same though.

Also keep in mind that some roms can take up to 5 minutes to load the first time. Normally (but definetely NOT always) as long as it doesn't keep reloading the boot animation, everything is fine - the rom is building your file system on your first boot.

What rom do you all think is the best? Im currently on cm 7.02 and i like it but i want to know your opinions

Also what are the benefits of switching kernels? And which do you all recommend?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App

if you took the time to read about kernels and what they are you would know.
but, i'm in a good mood today:
Kernels govern your cpu speed and how to scale it. Some are locked to a certain frequency set and some are made adjustable, but you have to get an app that interacts with the kernel otherwise it runs at whatever it is preset to.
SetCPU is the one I used, but I know there are plenty out there that others would recommend and swear by in a heartbeat.

Thanks, which kernel do you have and would you recommend me getting it?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App

I'm using Virtuous rom 1.02 with the advanced kernel. I clocked mine at 475-1100mhz with a low battery profile switch at 275-887 (i think).
Check your rom specific kernel to make sure it runs best for your rom. The rest is personal preference.

*sigh* Give a man a fish and he will eat all day. Teach a man to fish and he will drink beer all day.
Since you're on CyanogenMod, I recommend Pershoot's kernel (available through ROM Manager). If you're feeling bold, download Flippy's latest kernel. Since I'm running the CM-based PyroMod, Pershoot's kernel is built in.

Everytime i flash a rom do i need to flash clockwork mod recovery?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App

I suggest you check out the stickies sections that has links to a bunch of very well written guides that answer all your questions. the responses you get here are going to turn ugly very fast.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA Premium App

If you open clockwork and your current recover is the same as newest version then there is no need to reflash recovery. The only reason to reflash clockwork is if there is a newer version out.

Freezes ,freezes abs freezes ...

Hey , i got a really annoying problem with my lovely dhd..
It's rooted ship s-off and all this stuff is needed. Well, but the problem is , that I've got with every Rom I flash problems. Always there're freezes after sometime . Let's say.. 30 minutes . But not once a day, very often. With and without overclocking. I can't think of what's the problem. Hope someone here can help

Just change it before others notice it.
The problem may caused by as least as spoiled governors, minimum cpu setting, kernel, rom/app related, or the worst case scenario - your beloved DHD is sick. Nah, just kidding. Try it nonetheless. Change the governor, adjust the minimum/maximum cpu, reinstall/change kernel and uv script, or flash fresh rom if you want to. Remove any bloatware in your phone.

Phone keeps shutting down randomly

So after rooting my girlfriends g2 and installing cyanogen mod and coredroid mod the phone sometimes turns off.when my girlfriend turns on the power button it just shows the HTC screen and load from thr beginning as if you've just turned on the phone.I hear the it might be cause she gets no signal in school or something about the CPU speed....i'm not really sure but all I know is she never had it before I rooted her phone. Does anyone else have this problem?

I'm confused. What do you mean by you installed both Cyanogen mod and CoreDroid mod.

it has to do with the cpu settings

I´m having the exact same issue after installing the cyongenmod 4.2. Please how to chage cpu settings?

Cyanogen 4.2..? Pardon me, but that's a typo correct? Either way off the top of my head the only app that controls CPU and is free is rom toolbox, look for it on market

If you're on a fresh install of CM, thr cpu speed isn't the issue; CM defaults to an overclocked speed.

What causes random reboot in every rom?

I wonder wat causes all the random reboot,is it got to do with undervolt,overvolt,CPU speed and minfree value?

..overvolt?
Anyway undervolting and CPU speed can definitely cause reboots. Some phones can't go beyond 1.2GHz and I know undervolting can cause instability when brought down too low.
Personally I haven't had a random reboot in as long as I can remember, but I also don't undervolt and I don't OC past 1.2GHz.

Well,I'm using sense rom in the moment,enabled swap and supercharge.. and oc it at 468-1458mhz.. =\ still reboot,does vm heapsize affect rebooting?

My phone's upper limit is also at 1.4GHz, runs stable on it, but haven't really felt the need for that. One thing that comes to mind is that your lower limit is pretty high. What governor do you use? Do you have a profile for screen off and what's the frequency fork there?
I would assume that with that setup the phone gets pretty heated, which could very easily cause random reboots. Any idea what temperature it usually runs on?

Sent from my Desire Z using xda app-developers app

Maybe you should try lowering the upper limit to 1.2GHz for a while see if it makes any change... in the meantime it might be helpful to know:
a) Which specific rom are you using?
b) Any custom kernel?

I found out when I use this android revolution 6.3.3 rom,and flash a music player mod by lyapota,it mix up the word,like holding home it appear recent app,but after flashing I get your personal information and if I use home long press to multitask,the whole phone will just reboot :/

hot battery !

first of all sorry for new thread as i narrowed down the issue..
my problem is that no matter which rom and gapps i use at the time of boot my battery temperature is around 65-70 c
and cpu temp is 50-55
sometimes the phone shut downs at boot only or sometimes luckily it works and i have to let it cool down and after some time the temperature of battery drops to 35-40 c ( which is normal i guess) and cpu temp is normal 40-50 c
and as soon as i do some task for eg installing app from app store or some file managing things the phone shows shutting down popup and it switches off( i am not able to note down the temp at that time as it happens anytime and when it happens i am not able to use the touchscreen )
and also if it working normal that is i am not doing some heavy stuff just some scrolling or image viewing it works fine but when i reboot the phone same problem again battery temperature around 65c
i am posting 4 screenshots from cpu temperature app
2 is of the just after boot and 2 taken after some time
and also just after boot the battery current shows too much i guess plz take a look (the changing curve screenshot)
fyi - i tried 3 kitkat roms 2 gapps, even tried downgrading recovery,flashed different radio,restored backup of a perfectly working rom from previous month.
thanks in advance

Are you s off or s on? Flash a stock sense rom and set your device to throttle at around 70-75c cpu

I think you will not find RUU for your main version if you are with hboot more then 1.39

i tried going to stock with a nandroid backup which id downloaded
i flashed boot.img from it then from recovery wiped everything and then restored the backup
and then i also flashed the recovery (which doesnot work i guess as i go to recovey it show red icon abouve a phone image)
anyways the stock rom started and i thought the problem was gone but as soon as i just done few stuff and it went shutdown and the back was very hot
is it a hardware fault or software? as because in fastboot and recovery the phone doesnt switches off.
and if it is hardware fault then would it be a battery fault or some IC got corrupted?

Probably hardware

does it mean simply replacing the battery wont help ?

It might help. I read that replacing the battery with hox+ battery will keep cooler.

but how ?
I have the same problem here (no root, LB, no TWRP or CWM)
I thought about flashing a custom rom with a different kernel (after unlocking, rooting and adding a custom recovery) with processor blueprints to keep my phone cool
but since you say a battery change could help, it made curious
how should it solve the problem, FaiselW ?

One thread shows that a one x plus battery fits in the one x. He also found that his phone was 10c cooler. Anyway i would change battery asap. 65-70c is a fire hazard.
