kernel flash--boot loop

I have s-on desire with default clockwork mod recovery v2.5.0.7
when I flash a rom it boots normaly, bu if I flash a kernel I get a boot loop ( I wiped delvik cache,and when that didnt work I did a full wipe)
so is it my recovery because I am the onlyone that is having this problem?
do I need to s-off?

Which rom did you flash and which kernel did you flash?

cool bravos
supernova,snq

Wiped dalvik-cache + cache before flashing this kernel? Do you use something like A2SD?

I did a full wipe befor flashing the kernel, and yes I use A2SD

Did you flash a script in recovery which has to do with A2SD, e.g. one which moves dalvik-cache to EXT?

when you say full wipe... do you mean everything or just cache and dalvik cache?

Just to put this concept out there...Guys, kernel flashing does not need wipe of any kind. DK is a hardware optimized version of Odexes, which dont depend on a kernel architecture. Cache too is not used by kernel but usually by market. Incidentally on Data2SD roms, wiping DK/cache can cause bootloops..
OP..try flashing a kernel without any kind of wipe. If it still doesnt work, use the command line to monitor kernel messages during boot
adb shell
dmesg

SORRY for not replying. my computer died.i tried to flash the kernel without wipe and I still have bootloop. next I am going try adb
edit: when it is booting adb devices is not showing the device
edit: when I flash the kernel and reboot
adb shell
error:device not found

Make sure you installed all drivers (correctly).

No nandroid backup to go back to for the moment.....

Problem with Sandvold ROM ICS for Desire

Hi guys,
I have an other problem with this ROM. Sometimes when I turn off the screen the device locks, the only solution is remove the battery and turn off the Desire.
When the device locks I have or the screen totally black or the boot animation blocked and any commands don't work.
Someone have this problem or know the solution?? Thanks
Jerry

Go back to using a stable rom and stop using a beta rom only to complain things doesn't work properly afterwards.

Ok, Thanks. I have another question for you about this ROM. The volume (ring and alarm) is very low, how can I increase it??

From sandvold site
"Volume is very low!
Have you used Amarullz or Darktremor A2SD? Although both methods uaually work well they have been shown to cause lots of FCs with this ROM. A alternative A2SD method is baked right into this ROM so you don't need another one. See the question above this one."
Also you can download via market "audiomanager"..
But propably its the a2sd

You use darktremor script ? Because when you move dalvik cache to sd your sound will be low
Sent from my HTC Desire

i use it too, but my sound its ok, it wasnt at 0.3.4, but now at 0.3.6 my problem is fixed

Yes i use Darktremor script. I flashed this script because the "native" app2sd script of the ROM doesn't work good.
I follow the guide of the ROM to install the script but after the reboot i have always the same problem, the problem is that every app that I install is copied to both internal memory and external partition, so the internal memory fills up quickly.
The sound is now ok.
I still have the problem that I wrote at the beginning of this discussion (freezing of the device) but it is less rare.

u have the latest version 0.3.6?

I understand what you want to say but I did a clean install. I wiped all and then I installed the ROM....i suppose that is a problem of the beta version....I'm waiting for a stable version....Thanks anyway

No, actually i didn't format the system, i did only all wipe. I can do also the format .
So I can do this:
wipe chache
wipe dalvik cache
factory reset
format system
flash ROM
it's right???

do this
i did this and everything works fine
1. wipe data/factory reset
2. mounts and storage --> format system
u dont need to do anything else..these 2 options do all the other wipes and formats
3. install clean rom
tell me what happend

Gallery problems
Its a great ROM with a few expected problems being a beta. The problem I'm having is with the gallery. I can't access any of my albums.
I've tried Quick Pics but it doesn't find images stored online in G+ or Picasa albums.
Has anyone else come across this using a2sd?

sorry man, dont know what else to say..

Desire Stuck on boot with INT2EXT+

Hello,
I'm using JB AOKP by Vj and for space needed reasons I decided to try the int2ext+ script. It works only the first time I boot the phone, on the second time it stays stucked on the boot animation.
Thanks in advance.

Did you delete the old script first?

I dont think u did. Like k3lcior said u need to delete a2sd from the rom. So on ur computer, open the rom zip and go to system/etc/init.d folder and check if theres any a2sd script there, if so delete it. Also check system/bin. Then put rom on sdcard and in recovery, full wipe, wipe dalvik then flash rom then int2ext script then reboot.

My Desire is also stucking in the boot animation. I tried to use Int2Ext and some others, but there is no change. My rom is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2070704. It works for the first boot, but it won't work for the 2nd. I removed a2sd but it didn't change anything. What can i do?
Thanks

How did you partition your sd-card?

I had to primary partitions. My first is 6gb FAT32 and my second is 2gb Ext2.
I solved my problem. My solution:
1. Like mentioned above, remove a2sd from the int.d folder or how it's called
2. because it didn't reboot, I cleanded the dalvik cache with the clear dalvik cache zip by croniccorey which was made for the use with the script. you can find it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716124. it should fix the problem.

[Q] A little help please

When you are in 4ext recovery go to wipe format, scroll down to wipe everything except sdcard, when that's done choose install zip from sdcard and select the rom

Sorry Sywats,
I went to wipe menu
• Stay inside recovery
• battery stats
• dalvik
• cache
• data / factory reset
I did dalvik / cache / data and it just does it and reboots me to the stock ROM and I have to download all the apps again.
I'm getting confused with the menus. Is this in
"install from sd" or
"Wipe menu" menu ?

ok,
so install zip, tick all the bottom options and pick the rom to install seems to have worked.
Booting Cyanogenmod now it seems.
Thanks guys,
sorry for the noobness.

Hey guyss
I am currently using RemPuzzle's latest ROM but the reason why i am posting it here is becoz it has been happening with all the ROMs that I have tried!
The phone works completely fine until the display is turned off for quite some time (put to sleep)! Then when ever I try to open it, it wont! The only way to make it work is by battery pull! I have tried flashing other ROMs but the same problem occurs with them. For now, I have selected in 'Screen Timeout' to 'never turn off'! But still it is very annoying me!
What I do when flashing the ROM: (CWM 5.0.2.0)
Wipe data/cache partition
Wipe cache partition
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Wipe boot
Wipe cahe
Wipe data
Wipe system
Flash ROM
Flash gapps (if necessary)
Flash CronMod
Flash CronMod dalvik cache wipe tool
Reboot system
Do tell me if im doing anything wrong!
Thnx in advance!

I think the phone isn't functioning properly, you've done everything right :good:
But my best guess that it's the phone
I've got a few tips, revert back to stock
Flash cwm revolutionary 4.0.1.4 and re install a custom ROM, it's what I've done every time to solve all my issues :good:
If my way doesn't work or solve any issues, then I'll try to give more advice in return, if others would like to aswell
Also if phone still reacts all weird, it's best if you take the phone to someone who can fix it up :good:
In any case i'll try and do my best

Well this will only work if you have the correct ext partition on your sdcard, and I don't think root has anything to do with this. Have you ran an ruu yet? If not run one, if yes which one?
