Hey guys...long time subscriber,not your usual poster. Been using mikes ARHD roms since I had my DHD. My One X has a CID not yet available to flash a JB Rom.
I'm still on ARHD 9.7.2 but I have a problem. The phone reboots on a daily basis. Today being the worst...4 times. Happens anytime, could be locked or even trying to dial a call. No idea why,otherwise running perfect. My hBoot is 0.95 - anything to do with it??

Have you tried flashing the boot.img that comes with the ARHD rom?
You need to download it separately on the first post.
Boot into fastboot mode
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img

I was previously running 9.4.1 so i had flashed the boot.img with that but was under the understanding that it was the same boot.img for all 9.x.x ROMs??
Should i just flash it anyway and then flash the ROM again??

Hi.. Big noob here. But after having flashed the latest ARHD, i can see that they recommend to flash boot.img.. Is this the stock bootloader? and why is it a good idea to flash it when my phone seems to work fine?
i've rooted my phone the "fastboot way" from OSX, so what would i write i the terminal to flash this boot.img?
still not able to post in the dev forum, so hope im not way of, posting it here
thanks!
it contain tweaks
The boot.IMG has nothing to do with the bootloader ,it is the kernel and the ramdidsk which developers change to add tweaks and features. This boot image would normally be flashed automatically as you install the rom in recovery but for now the recovery is incapable of flashing this image so we should do it manually

How do u flash stock boot.img when returning the handset back to.full stock ROM? Would a cwm restore fix it or would the same problem occur? If so where could the stock boot.img be found to keep as a backup for if fully stock ROM is wanted again?
Sorry for all the questions.
I'm new to the HTC way, had Samsung before and I knew what I was doing lol.

flashing the RUU will replace the boot.img
also your backup you made in clockworkmod will have the boot.img in there. it just wont be able to flash it when restoring. so just pull the boot.img from your /sdcard/cwm to your pc then you will have the stock boot.img which if you do restore can be flashed through fastboot
so your 2x options are
1. download the full RUU file for factory reset
2. copy your CWM backup to PC.
do a restore from CWM then goto fastboot and flash the backed up boot.img

Makes perfect sense. One other quick question. Like with Samsung handsets Odin can be used to flash stock Roms, is there any such software than can do the same for htc devices?
Thanks again

The RUU is what HTC uses instead of Odin.

Hello I recently tried to flash ARHD on my one and it stuck in a bootloop. I have tryed RUU and it says wrong RUU even though it flashed fine before the FLash. I have tryed flashing the Ruu Manually but my phone won't take the rom? Also tryed to flash a 4.0.4 Rom through CWM stuck on htc logo though.
fastboot works but i can't seem to get it to take anyrom
Help please
HTC_001
Radio-2.1204.135.20
hboot: 1.12.0000
Maybe due to not updating Hboot before flashing?

Maybe try CWM for manual install?
You need to fastboot boot.img
Heres a tool to flash kernels and boot.img
Just put the boot.img in the kernel folder run program and flash kernel

Flash the boot.img from the rom your trying to flash then go to cwm full wipe or use superwipe.zip and then flash rom
If your trying to go to jb you need to check your cid and update your hboot

Hi was wondering if somebody can help me. I am new to htc devices and am learning loads about how a phone operates ect due to no s off but was wondering.
if I was on htc custom jb rom ie insercoin but wanted to flash another stock based rom ie miui australia or any other stock based do I have to flash the boot image as I assume there using the same kernel. Is this correct and can it be done. Im probaly miles off. Also can a boot image be flashed through terminal emulator on phone
Im prepared to read but couldn't find a explanation so a link would also be appreciated

You always have to flash the boot.img from the rom you are about to flash ! Even if its the same, just to avoid any problems !
You can't flash a boot.img inside a running OS. This has to be done with the phone in fastboot usb mode and fastboot commands from pc (cmd prompt)
Hope this helps a bit
Edit : this has some info about flashing ....

The boot.img contains both kernel and ramdisk
The kernel might not change that much between releases but the ramdisk certainly does
You would likely find that if you don't flash the boot.img then you will just get boot loops
And to your second point. Due to the security on newer HTC phones. You cannot flash a boot.img anyway other than in fastboot.
With s-off you could but as of this moment there is no way of achieving s-off
With s-off the boot.img would automatically be flashed when you install the rom in recovery
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Thanks. So when you repack a boot image are you using kernel and rom specific ramdisk
sent from my highgrade HTC one x
Yes.
Repacking is merging a new kernel with the ROMs ramdisk

any Ideas for this problem?
thanks a lot
Are you flashing the boot.IMG found in the ROM?
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app
no. i m flashing the rom.zip by install from sdcard. which i saved from pc.
You need to extract the boot.IMG file from the ROM and flash it in fastboot USB mode with the following command. "Fastboot flash boot boot.IMG"
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app
You just don't allow to flash radio.img with S-ON.
let me try boot.img first and get back here
thanks guys
finally i managed to flashed this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230656
