Hello.
My device is an international HTC One X, it is rooted and the bootloader is unlocked. Its s-on (oh well..) and i has CWM installed for recovery. HBOOT version 1.39.0000 (never changed the hboot version).
What lead up to my situation:
I moved from my stock rom to [ROM][Jan 14] Jellybean 4.2.1 for Endeavoru AOSP Build [BT Audio fixed] [ANY HBOOT], working fine for 2 weeks. Then i want to flash [ROM][04 Nov]PARANOIDANDROID 2.53 | Per-App COLOR, Dpi & UserInterface.
Instruction for flashing:
CWM: Wipe Cache / Factory Reset IF coming from another ROM (except CM10)
CHOOSE BETWEEN JB OR ICS :
CWM: Install Zip: Rom (Jelly Bean): Download
CWM: Install Zip: Rom (ICS, v1.6a): Download
CWM: Install Zip: Gapps: Download
Fastboot: flash boot.img
CWM: Wipe Cache Partition
CWM: Advanced/Wipe Dalvik Cache
Reboot
Reboot and edit your Apps Dpi & Layout under Settings/Paranoid Settings
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Did all - choose the JB rom, not the ICS. Also did a factory reset just to be sure, though my previous custom rom was a 4.2.1 JB rom aswell.
After last reboot its stuck on the HTC logo itself. I then (for the heck of it) flashed the boot.img from [ROM][Jan 14] Jellybean 4.2.1 for Endeavoru AOSP Build [BT Audio fixed] [ANY HBOOT] - because it was able to boot my phone with the other rom.. After that, its stuck at the custom bootscreen for [ROM][04 Nov]PARANOIDANDROID 2.53 | Per-App COLOR, Dpi & UserInterface. Its been loading this rom for +15 minutes.
My question: It doesnt seem the phone ever boot. Will replacing the boot.img with [something else] solve my problem, or is it a problem with my HBOOT version? I am not very fond of replacing the hboot, because i havent researched this as much, and from what i read its a quite important part of the phone.
Any help is appriciated! I tried searching for the answer on my Hboot problem, but wasnt able to find anything. Should there be a thread on this matter, then please just redirect me, i am perfectly able to read and understand text
Kind Regards

Since it is based on CM10(?), and is version 4.1.x of android, I assume that it will not work out of the box with 1.3x hboot version.
On regular CM10 this is solved by a special boot.img, and a similar solution might exist for paranoidandroid.
Please search the parsnoidandroid thread for "hboot" and something useful may pop up. (I can't do that as I'm browsing on road. )
And one more thing: never flash boot.img from another ROM, it will not work.

Hello,
Thank you. I flashed the boot.img from the zipfile with the ROM, but i will search the rom thread for a special rom to solve my problem with the hboot version.
Do you know where i can find more about hboot versions and custom rom compatebility? Also, is it best to have an old or new HBOOT version? The thread of the custom rom says the following:
If you're on boot 1.23, 1.28, etc... use this boot.img for now - it's for 3.3 ROM and it has NCX v13 kernel inside

But the link (this boot.img) is a dead one to dropbox.. I guess the search goes on! Can you clearify what the OP means by "1.23, 1.28 etc"?

it means hboot versions....try and use a unified hboot kernel...most of the times should be the latest one in the updated rom itself

He means Jelly Bean hboots: 1.23, 1.28, 1.31, 1.36, 1.39

Jelly Bean hboots (described earlier) are compatible with Jellybean and ICS Sense ROMs, and 4.2.x AOSP ROMs
(And somewhat compatible with aosp jb roms other than 4.2(like paranoidandroid) with workarounds like a special boot.img)
ICS hboots (lower than 1.23) are compatible with ICS Sense ROMs and all AOSP ROMs.
The best hboot depends on the roms ypu want to run and it is not possible to downgrade it.(W/o s-off)

I am aware that the numbers are versions But he seems to group these version numbers together by a common attribute, and it is that attribute i am looking for. For example, hboot 0.94 is not in that group, or is it? Are the hboot versions majorly different from some version and forward, or some version and backwards... maybe a wierd question. The ROM threads OP links to this youtube demo video on the flash process, he is on hboot 0.94, for example..
Thank you for the update on the hboot versions, that answers the section i grayed out (is there no strikethrough on xda??)
Is an older Hboot just universally better? Also, can you elaborate on "unified hboot kernel"? Or point to a thread Whats in the word unified..
I found a boot.img for 1.3x hboots in the roms thread (here), i will try that now.

did you fastboot erase cache before flashing the boot.img
Yep, i noticed that too, im looking for at boot.img in the CORRECT rom thread... I have both threads open, and search the wrong one.

dude..just fastboot erase cache and take the boot.img from the rom itself and it should work...i done the reading on the PA thread and that is the procedure you should do
Okay... This is wierd..
@Goku80 - I did erase cache, both via CWM and via fastboot directly.
I managed to get the rom to work eventually. I used the boot.img and the modules from this post. The boot.img (boot.repacked.n3o.v13.for.new.hboot.img) link was dead, but i found it via google.
In this thread, where that same file is discussed, it is reported that the boot.img file is NOT working:
I added the boot.img to the OP, becoue it was reportred as working one with newest hboots. But it looks like it is not working. So i will remove it today.
Looks like the rom IS NOT WORKING ON NEWER HBOOTS. If anyone finds the way to get it work, please keep us informed.

run out of thanks but it is great to see someone actually making an effort to learn.. well done my friend...

Thanks both of you guys The rom is quite messy, UI wise, and the default android keyboard crashes CONSTANTLY.. Cant get to GP to download swiftkey 3 that i purchased, but will attempt push and install via adb or build a zip from cwm backup i can install from recovery..
For now i reverted, but did a cwm backup, though keyboard is broken, for easy restore.
From my International HOX via xda app
I don't think I'll use the custom rom after all, it's very buggy (could be a problem on my part, with the way I did things, not really sure ). Apart from the keyboard constantly crashing, the preloaded application for flashlight 'stopped working' over and over.. Not very comforting.
I tried to install the swiftkey 3 app by using app2zip to create a update.zip file, and then flash the update file from cwm, but swift key 3 never shows up in the app list after reboot... Wasn't it supposed to do that?
Kind Regards

Try another ROM, I recommend IceColdJelly by LorD ClockaN, really stable, no FCs, and it's compatible with your hboot right away!
That is my next go, for sure I have seen it already, i was just keen on the DPI one, due to the options to customize DPI per app..

change the dpi on ICJ and you can still get mdpi apps for your rom..make sure you run a launcher like Nova or leave the default one and you should be fine...
i would suggest ICJ also as it is the smoothest and great AOKP rom out there at the mo

By "The dpi on ICJ" you mean overall for the system, right? In probbuild. WHat is mdpi apps? Multi DPI? And a launcher like nova? Can you direct me to info on nova and mdpi apps? Or just quickly explain I would like my homescreen in one DPI, my apps list and config menu in other DPI, and some apps in 3rd and 4th DPIs... Can ICJ really do that?? :laugh:

COOKIN' ROMS LIKE A BOSS
Thanks, Paul. Looking forward to your SenseUI build for American Visions
Works perfectly. Very snappy. Using it with the ROM kitchen is a nice way to customize exactly the ROM you want. I used that to keep my old email.apk that doesn't ask for a alphanumeric password every time I want to use the phone.

Pual, I for the life of me can't seem to get this overclocked. I should be able to overclock this using the steps in the link below correct? Oh, and by the way I love the rom. I used baconbit, which was great until i found out I couldn't use my extended battery on it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=813681
I've done a total wipe and installed your rom and my app with titanium. Here's the link.
I've put the ota ko file in the root of the my sd. And ran the attached .sh files in gscript, but all i get is errors.
Edit: nevermind I see that the OP to the overclocking post no longer supports it. I guess ill have to go with the new kernal and hope it works with extended batteries. Thanks for reading.

Downloads
The ROM is packaged for installation via ClockworkMod. The radio / baseband is packaged for installation via either renaming to PC10IMG.zip and copying to SD card then rebooting to bootloader or by 'fastboot flash'ing the radio (both of which will likely require your device to be 'S-OFF / ENG' bootloader).
A MCR will follow soon.

You can flash this on top of anything, probably without wiping if coming from a near stock build as the actual ota is non wipe.

This is a thread for all of those interested in the HW Hack that has been applied to the current WIP ICS for Desire ROM. This is to keep you out of the development thread for the ICS ROM and keep it clean. Any questions should be asked in here and if anyone wants to develop it, go ahead. As mentioned many times in the original thread, they are not supporting this, so don't ask them! Funnily enough, neither am I, I am sick of reading questions pertaining to something that is mentioned every page as UNSUPPORTED.
Flash in the order the files are listed.

i am trying out this rom.. it is definitely smoother than the other rom. But i faced a problem, i am unable to download and install whatsapp from the market. Though i have enough space to install it on my internal memory, the message that is given was not enough memory. I think this is due to the 5mb of cache in the Cm7r2 hboot. Is there a way to symlink such that apps from the market are downloaded to the sdcard before installation?

Use terminal emulator and try this. (Alternatively use adb shell)

cd /cache/
rm -R download
mkdir /mnt/asec/marketcache

Because you started spamming the other thread with pointless questions. The need for clean thread where those actively participating in development could obtain information needed without roaming the endless posts about something which could hardly benefit the development warrants the need for a new thread. This should be done the first day they started with this project.

Where are you trying to flash from? I have no problems flashing the above from Clockword Recovery. You cannot flash gapps and kernel from running rom because you need superuser for this to work...

Check the respective rom sites for a what's working/not working list, features and download links. Discuss general things about the rom here such as a2sd scripts and any issues
As requested by the dev for the ICS rom:
What's NOT working?
Code:
[LIST]
[*]Camera force closes while recording video
[*]Hardware decoding for video playback -> laggy playback of 720p (use software decoding in Mx Player instead).
[*]Home/Search key (use the fix over [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34075493&postcount=131"]here[/URL])
[/LIST]
Anything that isn't said there is working fine. Will update the list if others find anything that doesn't work. Before asking for help do check you have the right hboot and that the md5 is correct after you download the rom. Also make sure you perform a full wipe when migrating to these roms.
Bear in mind that ICS was not made for our devices. Do not expect the stability of GB but the devs have done a great job on this and it is quite stable and quick for daily use.
Installation for CM9 ICS rom:
Code:
[U]Full wipe recommended before each flash from new version and is NEEDED if coming from any other rom.[/U]
Partition SD card so you have less than 1.5gb in sd-ext partition and the rest as FAT32. Gparted is recommended.
Flash the rom from recovery.
Grab m2sd from [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342387"]here[/URL] (credit to dk_zero-cool) and flash it from recovery using whatever options you want (recommended by to choose apps and dalvik).
Wipe cache/dalvik and reboot :)
You can use cron's INT2EXT scripts as well from here and just flash in place of m2sd.
Feel free to ask any questions here but keep the dev threads on topic.
Anyone using the JB rom if you could post a not working list from your tests that'd be great .
Since corey moved on to JB the cron r2 hboot isn't available on the website anymore. The current version of the ICS cronmod rom still fits on to the 183mb system hboot so I thought to put this up here for those that want a bit more space in data
WARNING: The size of the system partition may increase in future so the hboot might not be compatible with future versions of cronmod cm9.
Check md5 before flashing and flash through fastboot using "fastboot flash hboot filepathAndName.img"

Its quite usable as a daily rom. At least I use it daily. But don't expect the level of stability like gingerbread. I mean, The kernel is still under improvement. Best way is to use it for a few days and judge yourself.

Hello,
I flashed this ICS rom just before Yasir took over and I must say I'm happy with it.
It is a bit slower than my previous CM7 rom of course but nothing dramatic, and it somehow seems more stable for some reason (GPS works, for example!).
And I still get a quite big amount of space on data thanks to the cron r2 hboot, which is great!
And I also love the CM9 tweaks.
So overall a good surprise for my first jump from CM7 roms.
But I tested Chrome and discovered it is so laggy it is unusable. Do you guys have the same issue?

Chrome isn't made for our devices. Not the best browser for us but it's great on other phones

The rom itself is amazingly quick and stable. Considering it's ICS I'd say it's the best ICS rom out right now. Haven't tried CronMod JB though.

That's a shame.
I have another question: what 3rd party app could I use for video recording?
I tried UCam and it didn't work...

I don't need video recording myself so I wouldn't know. But any camera app should work. I've heard good things about ICS Camera on market. Very close to stock camera app as well.
I'm going to be linking my friend this ROM soon-ish (once beta comes out) and she's using a BravoC on Ntelos. What kind of prep would she need to do on the phone before flashing the ROM? Like a wipe script or something to repartition or what? Want it to go as smooth as possible.

just wipe and install as listed in OP but be sure to have a ext partition if you plan to use a script

I tried it and sadly it crashes like the stock app.
Anyone knows of a working camera app that can record video with a working preview?

Using scripts is kind of new to me. I've always had devices with a lot of storage for apps. What would you recommend?

I suggest you to use INT2EXT+ with this ROM, take a look HERE.
I noticed that when i install a new app (from the market or an .apk), the system hangs for a while, sometimes it even pop with a system error, but if i select to wait the system then starts to work again, i have installed INT2EXT+ script with a 512 sd-ext partition on a Class 4 8 GB SD card. Could the low SD class can cause this problem? SD read cache is correctly set at 2 MB.
Could you amswer me whats working and whats not working in your cm9 rom? Cant find it
Hey guys, a fellow noob here so please forgive me for the following question but..
I've rooted my phone recently and flashed Aurora to remove the bloatware.. it also removed some widgets along with it, including the contacts widget. Is it possible to restore the widget through Aurora or any other means and what do I have to do if I can do so?
I've got the Nandroid backup ofcourse, but I'd rather not get everything back again, just get this one particular widget only.
Cheers
Do you have a htc one x ?

Yes, hence posting here.
On a sidenote, I'm not on a custom ROM, and I'm up to date if it's of any useful info.

I asked it because i know Aurora from other phones and not on the hox
you can download a "stock" custom rom and copy out the contactwidget.apk out of the rom and copy it to your phone, then with es file explorer activate root function and copy it to the system\app folder of your phone. Restart and/or clear HTCsense cache and see if its back
I'm going to do just that. Back with results within minutes.. cheers :good:
But check the rom version is the same, match the version you are running, so take the apk from a 2.17 Rom if you are on a 2.17 rom. If you are on JB you need to download a 3.14 version

Ugh, I'm sorry, I meant to say I flashed Aroma installer.. not Aurora
