[Q] help, i cant flash any custom roms

htc desire hd, so,I had gingerbread 2.3.3 and software # 2.50..., i used advance android hack to hack an root the phone, and apparently everything went good up until i installed the custom rom, it went to the htc welcome screen and stayed there for like 30sec and then it restarted again and again by itself, so i stock restart the phone and put the original rom back, then i tried downgrading the rom to froyo 2.2 and software # 1.32...... i hacked it and root it again but after i installed the custom rom it happened exactly the same it just restarts and restarts by itself to the point where i have to take the battery out ,
I"ve got s-off by the way
any help would be much appreciated
thanks in advance

I got the same problem. The welcome page again and again. I just restore the stock to and give up the flashing. May be we need to hack the recovery...

True but I just don't want to give up, custom roms look so nice that I have to find out how to do it, if you find out before me just let me know I'll let you know if I do

try this one. after downgrading, make an ota update then root it again with ace advance hack kit...

hope this helps
i dont have htc desire( i had neo v) . but i faced the same problem once.
try wiping evrything off before installing the rom
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
wipe dalvik cache
Format /system (in mounts and storage)
Format /cache
Format /Data
good luck

did you factoryreset, delete cache, dalvic and battery stats befor you flashed the rom? it sounds like you are bootlooping.

first if your using cmw or rom manager to install from get rid of that CRAP!! If your s-off on stock rom get 4ext recovery installed on phone first. Then try installing custom from with it.
1. Factory wipe
2. Wipe cache
3. Wipe dalvik
4. Format partitions (except SD card)
5. Format SD card (optional for total wipe)(Only if you want full fresh install but copy everything on SD to PC so you don't lose important stuff)
6. Mount USB (should only see one folder called 4ext)
7. Move rom to SD card
8. Disconnect USB
9. Install from SD card
10. Choose zip from SD card
11. Flash
12. Reboot
All steps done from 4ext recovery so do not exit recovery till all steps are complete.

Boot keeps restarting :(

i was rooting my arc s and it was successfully rooted after that i wanted to install some custom rom on it, i tryed the Modded ICS one and installed there boot.img and now my phone just reboots after it shows the "XPERIA" logo
Please help im new at flashing )
Thanks

hi
So u have flashed boot but not rom?
U need to have the rom on your SD .
Turn off phone boot it up and when boot logo appears repeatly press back button (not sure if there's an indicater on that kernel or not)
This should boot cwm when in cwm make a backup
Select backup and restore then backup
When this completes wipe data ,clear cache and advanced clear dalvik cache
now select install zip from SD ,then choose zip from SD,then locate your rom file select it and hit yes when it finishes ,reboot and enjoy
Volume rocker moves up and down
And home or power button selects
If u can't get into cwm u have made a mistake flashing boot so reflash it before the above
Failing this return to stock by flash original fw thru flash tool
Plenty of tuts on that just search
Hope that helps

is not the solution,i try several times,and always the same results.

Try:
1) copy your rom into sdcard.
2) flash your kernel under fastboot mode, then reboot.
3) keep press volumn button while rebooting, it should b under cwm screen.
4) wipe dalvik cache under advance
5) wipe data partition
6) factory reset, then reboot again
7) go into cwm screen again, then choose install zip frm sdcard, choose n run the rom that u copy into sdcard earlier. Reboot again after completed.
8) u shall wait for a while when restarting... Then should b ok....
U may try this, dunno whether work for u not.

I flashed my arc s last night with ICS Kernel with CWM Recovery and JJ's rom, had the same problem but as the above poster mentioned, wipe everything sorted out the problem.
Note: Just factory reset not enough you have to wipe everything

If I flash back to the GB ROM that's available when I use EMMA (when I tried earlier it is the only "service" that came up). Then do the steps outlined here, will it work? Or should i use the 4.0.4 ROM in the link that you provided? -> http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/399620/LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_Generic_Global.ftf

EDIT:Tried,didnt work ,but I am not sure if I wiped everything. I wiped factory data,cache,dalvik,than in mounts and storage I formated cache,data and system.I wiped even battery stats.Any other ideas?

Are you downloading the revision 1 instead of beta 2? Is your SIM inserted properly btw.
Sent from my LT18i using xda premium

Yop, I download the rev1. My SIM is placed right,on other ROMs it is working properly.

Which device are you using Xperia Arc S?

Yes.

Strange... can you reinstall the rom and leave it aside for atleast 15mins for the rom to settle down then start using it...
and follow these steps...
1. Flash the kernel provided in zip
2. Wipe Factory Data
3. Wipe Cache Partation
4. Wipe Dalvic Cache
5. Install rom from sd card
6. Reboot and leave it for 15mins after it boots successfully...

Thanks.Gonna try it out.Hope it will work :fingers-crossed:

Tried with no result :crying: It even doesnt recognize my sim card.

so i isntall the kernal which i have to downlaod to get stock rom?
Or i can do SOny Update service and restore?

Try first install another kernel. Vegance http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097138 but flash this only FASTBOOT.
If this does not not work try a clean install like this:
Turn on ur phone now then keep pressing volume down to enter CWM.
. Standard operation before installing new rom :
- wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- mount and storage -> format /system
- advanced -> wipe dalvik cache
- advanced -> wipe battery stats
. Now install zip from sdcard -> choose the UHD zip file, and follow the instruction in aroma. After finish don't reboot yet.
. Unchecked the reboot in aroma, after finish, u will be back in cwm.
. Now install the wifi modules first ( usually the custom kernel have their own wifi modules).
. reboot system.
. Finish
If this does not not help try the tutorial you sent in from the beginning.
