Can't install any custom rom! Help me!

I've got my hands on a new one x, now I've unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM recovery and its all rooted, I've done all the usual with wiping everything, but it keeps coming up with installation aborted, can anyone shed some light on this one for me, now I'm used to doing custom roms on my gnex and I really can't see where I'm going wrong

Sure you are fully rooted? Try a root app such as no-frills, titanium backup etc to see if it fully works.

I had this Rom, just flashed the lastest recovery in fastboot,. Try flashing this in fastboot

check if the forum where you downloaded the rom matches to your phone...at & t one x is not the same like european one x's, because of the chipsets.
That could probably be the reason for aborting...

I have the lastest recovery buddy

Have you tried installing a simple mod, anything, to see if your system partition can get remounted with rw?
Another thing I would try is to install supersu if you're using superuser and vice versa, and update su binaries.

You need to flash the kernel separately using fastboot. HOX doesn't have s-off so the kernel isn't flashed in recovery.
Extract the boot.img from the rom zip and fastboot flash boot boot.img

So there is no need to relock the bootloader ??
And how can I get the stock recovery of version 1.29.708.15 ??
thanks for your help anyway

You don't need to relock your bootloader for ota. Im afraid I don't know where to find your stock recovery as I don't bother with ota's, I use custom roms or ruus
EDIT: if you can find your versions ruu you should be able to extract the stock recovery from it

Run the ruu BUT DONT hit next.
From explorer enter %temp% in the address bar.
Find two newly created directories
In one of them there is a file called rom.zip
Copy that to another place. Close ruu.
Everything is inside the rom.zip file.

You will get the update (if your ROM is just stock, but rooted) but you won't be able to apply it.

If you stay in stock Rom but with custom recovery and rooted you would still get the notification of an update but it would fail until you put the stock recovery back on. Some people say you don't need to unroot for the ota but from my past experience it's best to. To unroot you have to go into your system/bin or system/xbin and look for the Su file and delete it. Then uninstall the superuser app.

At this time, you can't simply flash a lower ROM version as you might have. But you can "restore" an ICS ROM though. Flashing an ICS ROM over a JB ROM would cause an error during flash progress. This is what I learned so far and I even tried it> bad result
-----------------------------EDIT on 12.11.12--------------------------
My fault. As you said, step 5-12 weren't required. I've edited the Guide an now it should fit^^ Thank you

There are several reasons why someone would do that. One of 'em is e.g. warranty claim.
Some users report about issues with the JB ROM's, for example the WiFi issue. Those people are surely grateful for any kind of help for reverting to their old familiar ICS enviroment

Would be nice if someone can report if it worked for him

So let me get this straight, once I've done all this, will I be able to install the 2.17 RUU or will I still get the error that I need to use the correct updater tool?

No, you still can't use a RUU. The RUU's out there will try to flash a lower hboot version and as we all know, this is not possible unless you have s-off. There aren't RUU's for hboot 1.23 or higher. But if you do it as I described it in the first Post, there won't be any difference to a RUU flashed Device.

I'm not sure but it should be possible. I'm referring to mike1968.'s thread about the stock ROM he's providing. Its the same ROM I am referring in the HowTo. With that ROM you can receive OTA's. BUT; if you recive an update, containing a lower hboot version than at least 1.23 you might not be able to flash it.

Apps to make jelly bean without flashing rom

Nova launcher

Nova Launcher, Holo Locker then download the ICS Dialer, JB Messaging and JB Contacts app from appstore. That's about as close as you'll get without flashing, in all honesty nothing will go wrong, you've already rooted so I assume recovery is installed so you're 99% there.

Just follow the steps on the one click toolkit, all you need to do is unlock bootloader then install recovery and reboot and done. Just make sure you download the correct one (GSM or CDMA). I've flashed this device plenty of times in the 3 month I've had it with no problems at all, I've also messed about with my last two devices with no issues. And I'm only 17, I'm on an apprenticeship wage so I can't really afford a new device but it's really worth doing, if something goes wrong you can always depend on the people at XDA to help you out in recovering it.
I use MyOneV, its based on Sense Lite but I do prefer the Cyanogenmod based ROMs such as CM10 but I can't get enough of the Sense camera.

Installing apps of jb will not help... The smoothness....!!! The feel of using it will never come at any cost... And dont worry, i hav flashed roms approx. 50 times and nothing went wrong...
Recovery:- try twrp 2.4.4.0 and choose the correct one.... i.e. u r primoU or primoC...
Kernel:- flash dat seperately via fastboot..
Rom:- its up to you...!!!
P.S. please do not be on stock... Try a sense rom if u like it... But no stock... Its not deodexed so u cant even mod it freely...

R: Apps to make jelly bean without flashing rom
Flashing roms is easy once you flash the first one

I suggest you to flash CM 10 but since you want jb feel without it so here you go :
Apex launcher
Holo locker
Camera jb +
Clock jb+
Flash Google now for stock ROM if you want
Jelly bean status bar
Jb messenging app
ICS dialer
Install this much and you are good to go and I highly recommended you to flash Google now its the best feature of jb and flashing this also will not change your ROM or system but since you mentioned that you don't want to flash anything its your choice but its highly recommended

Yes I have flashed google now and am thinking about flashing a Rom. I have noticed google now has a horible amount of lag though.. and is there anyway I can flash a Rom without flashing a kernel as for that would require me to use a computer and right now my computer is down. Or can i flash the boot.IMG using just ny phone?

In that case I would suggest that you flash a RUU and see if that works. You will need to relock the bootloader for that.
