Yesterday unlocked via HTC dev. The through fast boot flashed twrp. That didn't work so well I couldn't actually flash any ROMs I could make a backup and I could restore. OK so I flashed cwm through Fast boot success however I flashed 2 ROMs one experia all seemed to work but WiFi was of no use I don't pay for service so that was obviously a no go. I flashed the ROM 3 times even re downloading it again. Ok so on to aokp flashed via cwm flashed jb gapps flashed boot.IMG via fast boot. Would boot up to start up then FC and reboot and boot loop at the aokp screen. Repeated numerous times getting various results.
Now I relocked boot loader and ran the ruu.exe and had to leave in the process it looked like it was booting hopefully when I come home it will be back to stock. Far from a dev so I am confused. I just want to try out some roms? Could this but a kernel issue? Recovery or something else?

first more info will get u more accurate advice ie.... build date of aokp.... last nightly is messed up use stable for best results. also the method of which u applyed these roms would be nice htc s-on is a pain so it requires a little diffrent prosses thin on other phones and diffrent strokes for diffrent roms
for wifi u have to reflash boot.img....
for FC and bootloops factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache....
download latest nightly and follow this------>
1. download rom and gapps,transfer them to root of SD card
2. extract boot.img(the kernel) from ROM zip,or whichever is compatible and place it in fastboot folder
3. go into bootloader, FIRST flash the boot.img in fastboot.
4. go into recovery, then FULL WIPE-factory reset, erase cache and dalvik cache.
5. then flash the ROM.
6. boot into the rom.then again enter into recovery and then flash gapps.
do the above steps in the same order all over again....it should work...:fingers-crossed:
If I am not mistaking I used the latest stable build of aokp, and I flashed both roms through recovery using both CWM and TWRP and also flashed kernel using fastboot. Although I reflashed TWRP and flashed AOKP and all seems to be right in the world. right now in at the set up screen so far no freeze or boot loop and wifi is working. Consider this problem solved
And yeah S-on sucks!

Can someone help, i just used odin to flash the rooted g1 image. Now i am stuck at the "samsung" screen. I just came from other custom roms such as cyanogenmod, aokp, and other touchwiz roms. I am assuming i have a diffrent kernal or diffrent bootloader and thats why I am stuck? How can i fix this?
My process:
I went from cyanogenmod to a touchwiz rom. Decided to go back to stock. Flash using TWRP Bootloader and kernal from the first post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31802808). Then used odin to flash root injected g1 image. Now it hangs at the samsung logo, i cant get into recovery (pretty sure i flash over that), but i can get into download mode.

You might want to try flashing the "UCALH9 Kernel, Modem and TWRP Recovery Tar" from here with Odin. Make sure the "Auto Reboot" switch is not checked in Odin. When the flash is done, disconnect from the computer, pull the battery, then boot into recovery by holding Home and Vol Up and then pressing Power. Hold Home and Vol Up until you see the Samsung logo and some little blue text, then release. If you can get there, do a factory reset, then you should be able to flash the rooted LG1 image with Odin. Or, you can flash LH9 from the same thread or from here by flashing the Bootloader, ROM and Kernel files from the PIECES section (in that order) before rebooting.
Wipe cache and devlik and it will fix your issue. I had the same problem before.
I have an extremely similar problem flashed from cm10 jellybean to stock rom + root and experiencing same issues at the moment i have flashed the stock rom and tried your suggestion "drothenberger" i got an error when flashing your suggestion

I had the same issue a few days ago and ultimately fixed it by doing factory reset, wipe cache, dalvik, etc.. I had forgotten to do it after flashing back to stock. You were probably smarter than me and did those things BUT if you didn't it's usually something simple like I did to fix the problem.
\Hey hunter you prolly figured it out already but I was in the same situation today going from AOKP to stock rooted.. what fixed it for me was after flashing, booting into the stock recovery (HOME + VOL UP + POWER) and doing a wipe data and wipe cache. Then going back to download mode and reflashing the stock rooted tar. not sure if reflashing was necessary but it worked like a charm after that.
well as i wasnt in clockwork i was pushing a stock rom through odin i don't beleive i iclearly the cache that could of helped but nonetheless im stuck and i can't get into cwm or regular recovery etc

My suggestions including flashing a bunch of stuff. Which one caused the error? The flash of the modem/kernel/recovery tar file in Odin or the subsequent flashing of the zips in recovery? What was the exact error you received?
It's pretty hard to help you if you don't provide all the details.
I've been struggling with this for a few days and thought it was about time I just broke down and asked.
What I'm trying to do is install the CM9 ROM on the my Telus model SGH-T989D.
I've been using CWM 5.0.2.6 as my recovery tool. I followed the instructions on the CM9 Page and formatted the various partitions and did a factory restore (all a few times) and then flashed the ROM. Everything seemed to go okay, however the phone would hang on the CM9 boot animation indefinitely.
I googled this issue and found that it was a problem with CWM not clearing cache properly. So I installed the latest CWM (6.0.1.5 non-touch) using ROM Manager and tried again. This time, the format cache function of CWM would hang.
After more research, I found that TWRP seems to work better. I downloaded gooManager but the Telus version is no supported by it. I did a manual install using dd (following instructions here) but now if I boot into recovery it hangs on the TeamWin splashscreen and the phone is unresponsive.
I think if I could find a decent recovery tool, I would be good to go so, in summary, can someone recommend a good recovery tool to use, or a version of CWM that will work for what I need it for, or a fix for the TWRP?
Thanks!

there are only two choices of recovery and my choice is TWRP and I am quite sure if you went into the TWRP thread you will find someone with the same issue as yourself. Also no need to flash from the app when there are zip versions readily available in the TWRP thread.
I do not own the Telus version but I think asking in TWRP would be your best bet. Also what version did you try and install from goo manager app.
Also remember you are not the first person with this issue search search search again...

there were more but I figured these were enough to start,,,, PM me if you still need assistance, I used 5.0.2.7 with scripts for CM9 but that was before I gave touch recovery a shot
Thanks, that helped somewhat... I was able to get TWRP 2.2 installed using cwm but CM9 still hangs on the boot screen. I guess I didn't wipe all the sectors I was supposed to? Or maybe I should try the TDJ wipe.
For anyone interested here's what I did to get it all working:
Use Odin to install CWM
Use CWM recovery to install TWRP-2.2.0-hercules.zip
Use TWRP to flash Darkside Super Wipe and then flash custom rom
With this method I was able to get CM9 running on the Telus S2X

When you change your rom you need to wipe data from recovery.

Always flash custom rom through custom recoverys only (not from stock rom). Flash TWRP or CWR or Philz recovery first and then flash custom rom.
After flashing custom rom or stock rom, first wipe data and cache (as above said) before rebooting.

get into recovery flash this file http://d-h.st/fWr u will loose evrything from internal memory, now after it reboot to recovery just flash your rom but dont reboot after installation.
first click fix permission
then wipe cache and dalvik atleast twice
then reboot!
it should load the rom fine, and i would suggest to stay with philz recovery and create a backup of efs and rom both the terminal way and through recovery too

I hope u are rooted and have a custom recovery installed if yes then its a script to clean wipe the rom to start a fresh install better known as dirty flash so when u flash the zip it will wipe ur cache, dalvik, system on recover and will automatically reboot to recovery then u can proceed wth any custom rom u want the latest philz recovery is recommended.i am using my phn yo reply and already 4am morning here so be sure what you are doing , give complete info of ur phn status as wht u hv done till now if u have all as mentioned abv then u r good to go and flash, but in ur case the flash of the file was not successful so u can manually wipe all mentined above and procced as instructed.
Its an instruction for custom rom and recovery if u have stock then just wipe cache and dalvik and try booting up.
Off to sleep
If you are unsure of what u r doing then try to get hands on odin and flash stock rom ,as messing up to much may damage ur pit partition

I've HTC dev bootloader unlocked desire hd with custom recovery. I've tried flashing boot.img (from rom.zip) in fastboot before and after flashing rom in recovery mode. The phone gets past htc logo screen and then goes blank with back light on and stays there forever. I've tried 4 different roms. The only rom I was able to flash was CM7.
The phone is currently at h-boot 2.00.0029, is this why I can't flash new roms?
Any help is really appreciated

Update your recovery.img to either of following;either one is good. But make backup of any rom you're on so that you may revert it back in future.
-TWRP 2.7.1.0
-Philz touch CWM
-4EXT Recovery Touch 1.0.0.6 RC 3
By the way which four roms you've tried? if recovery is up-to-date then phone should boot normally.
I have already tried philz touch and twrp. One thing I noticed was when i did a backup in recovery and tried restoring it and always get a md5 error. The same issue with different recoveries and on multiple tries. So I just flashed system.img and boot.img to get my phone back to stock rom.
Thanks

Strange....
Well unmark md5 check on restore. And clear cache/dalvic before rebooting it,Let's see how it goes.Also want to know which perticular rom you've tried so far where you were facing this issue. Also did you format devlog partition before installing CM11 nigthlies 20140618 onwards? If not then try doing so and let me know where you gets stuck?
I'm also S-ON where most other already made S-OFF so feel free to ask me. I'll help as much as i know :good:
Still no luck, it basically does the same thing for all roms. HTC logo shows up and then the screen goes blank with black light on. I've tried these roms:
cm-11-20140710-UNOFFICIAL-M8.1-ace.zip
ICESenseV1.1.zip
cm-7-20130301-NIGHTLY-ace.zip
MK44.4-ace-140719-RELEASE.zip
AoCP6_UW1_Port_for_Ace
I don't get any errors during the flashing process for all except the last one (AoCP6).
Also, the cm7 works sometimes and on other occasions it does the same thing as well. Could it be the sequence? I do a wipe, flash rom and then boot.img? Also, I've a broken volume button, so I flash the rom in recovery and then I do "adb reboot bootloader" and then flash boot.img, could this be causing this issue?
If it's not too much trouble could you upload system.img and boot.img backup from your phone of any custom rom? I would like to flash those from fastboot.
Thanks

Except Mokee 4.4.4 Release and CM11 M8.1 i used Philz but before that i was on CWM 5.8.1.5 and i had no issues with it. Also i've tried TWRP 2.7.1.0 too. Works perfect but i'm used to reboot into recovery by default option,which only available in CWM. Other recoveries boots into blank screen,If you powered off the device and put on charge.
Nope there isn't any sequence.... either you flash boot.img first or last it only helps in device to boot and have proper connectivity. Even if you don't flash boot.img then only your device should hang on bootloop or boots but no wifi reception. So these is something different.
Sure i can provide system.img and boot.img of M8.1 which i'm currently on. But how sure you're that it will work? I mean do you have a backup of it? Or fresh install. Also wanted to know have you ever tried format devlog partition and FULL WIPE your device?
Try using following attachments. FULL WIPE it's just an alternative of manual wipes,works with every recovery out there. And devlog partition will be formatted if any means of corrupted or remnant leftover using format_devlog zip. Meanwhile provide me details whether you got backup of M8.1 CM11 or going to flash fresh install. So that i can provide boot and system.img of it.
It's working now. Installed 4ext recovery and ran you'r script.
Thanks for all the help
Hi, i'm having trouble flashing back to stock.
I've got the latest stock firmware from sammobile.
Using twrp to install it says missing META-INF as the firmware zip isn't made the same as custom firmware.
Adding the tar.md5 to ap in odin flashes the boot and recovery but goes extremely slow when it starts flashing system (left it 2 hours and it hadn't even got half way) I'm guessing that's not normal.
I took a backup with twrp before I started flashing in twrp which flashes fine but I get endless boot loop when trying to start it.
I've tried fastboot but it doesn't detect the tablet.
I've tried different usb ports, cables, different versions of odin and different stock firmware. I'm ready to throw it out the window.
One thing to note is the [P600][Touchwiz] Marshmallow Rom 20170622 works great but also boot loops when I turn it off and on again, I have to boot into twrp then choose reboot in there and then it boots ok, that doesn't work with my twrp backup though.
Anything I'm doing wrong?
Thanks.
Well for some reason after installing marshmallow rom again then installing my backup it boots fine, havn't a clue why it failed to boot the other 4 times.
Nope
Back to continuous boot loop after second reboot.
All I did was turned developer options off and it's boot looping again.
Flashed original stock boot.tar.md5 and recovery.tar.md5 then factory reset and wiped cache but still boot loops.
Is it because I flashed a Marshmallow custom rom so it so you can't downgrade to a lolipop rom even though it's stock? Boot loader changed? Kernel?

I'm not quite sure what your problem is but you should be able to downgrade, I've done it before.
Try this guide first. I've had success with it.
If all goes well you can then try to flash your stock ROM. The one I've flashed successfully in the past is the one in this post.
Good luck!
You may need to repartition your system. Tick the repartition in Odin. **All data will be lost**
