Noob question, again.
I successfully rooted my One V, GSM. I want to flash this custom ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1640995
What kernel i should i use, or do i need to flash kernel at all? And does that ROM have languages, i want to use finnish. More noob questions: In TWRP, do i make a nandroid backup, and is that i can flash the stock ROM if i am not happy with custom ROMs?
For Suprimo ROM,use this kernel
boot-TK-USB-201212251804.img from
http://www.mediafire.com/?e1chs7tzcsstc.
Its the sense kernel,works with sense ROMs.
Yes,flash the TWRP recovery and make a backup of the stock ROM before flashing anything.you can restore it whenever you like.
And yes,you will have to flash the kernel or your custom ROM won't boot.

And i selected "BACKUP" on TWRP, and backed up System, Boot and Data, Recovery and cache, is that enough, can i now proceed to flashing custom ROM and kernel? Does it matter what order i do it, first kernel or custom rom? Sorry for stupid questions but i am quite nervous so i need to confirm that do i do stuff correct, my first Android phone and now cannot afford a new so don't want to brick it! =)
And can i use Hasoon2000's All In One kit or is this done in TWRP to flash kernel, and how i backup the original kernel, or is it even possible? As you can see i am a quite big noob.. It's better to ask than to be sorry, right? So that should be a good kernel for this? Should i be in recovery mode, in bootloader or what if i use the All In One kit?
I prefer flashing kernel before flashing ROMs.the boot.img is backed up.if you open the backup,you will find the boot.img.
Yes,the toolkit will flash the kernel.

So if i did backup those things what i said in earlier post, should i be fine? System, boot, cache, data, recovery are backuped in TWRP using the "Backup" menu.
Should i be in bootloader when i flash the kernel?
E: Does it take long to get forward from the boot screen (thats coming after that HTC queitly brilliant logo), now my phone is in this text which says "htc Desire HD" and "beats audio" in bottom of screen, i did flash the kernel.
E2: Never mind, it just took time, first time always bit slow huh? I find this funny that when i boot my phone i get "HTC Desire HD" text, although it is One V. Now just waiting that it unlocks my SIM card and sets up my phone. Glad to see all went fine. =)

Might sounds like a stupid question.... but..
How would someone upgrade/update his current Paranoid Rom? (or any custom Rom...)
I installed it on ~Nov 27th and since then there's a new version available.
Should I just re-flash the kernel (if it's new) and re-install the Rom in recovery?
Do I really have to do a factory reset again?
I might only have one post, but don't be afraid to go technical. I've been lurking and reading around here for a while, it's kind of a shame I can't post anywhere else just to comment on some roms or offer my help (programmer as a living...nothing as complex as a kernels or roms, but still useful )
Thanks in advance.
download the latest version and flash it in recovery after flashing boot.img from fastboot
You can do a dirty flash, which is flashing directly over what you have now, of you can use one of the backup apps like titanium and back up your settings, then go into recovery and wipe system data and cache and flash the ROM. Doing a dirty flash you might run into problems, not that's not a for sure thing.

It worked great, but I somehow lost all my contact (not a big deal as they are mostly on gmail or facebook and will sync back I hope)
So, I was relocking my HOX in order to get the OTA JB update from carrier (H3G) in order to use the new Viper ROM.
All went well and managed this. Got re rotted and installed CWM ans Super SU.
However, I read that before installing the JB Viper ROM it was important to do a full wipe. Using CWM i did this. Specifically I did the wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache and format system.
Now my phone is stuck on the white HTC screen. Please help.
Thanks
You formatted system, which basically wiped the rom. Reflash and don't format system.

And don't forget to flash the boot.img file !
Thanks for the quick response and apologies for the basic and wrongly termed questions. Just panicking a little.
How do i get the ROM and boot.img on to the fone? Because it sticks at the white screen the pc doesn't seem to detect it.
Last time i used a stock RUU and followed that process. Will i be able to flash the new Viper ROM instead?
thanks
The boot.img is supposed to be flashed from the PC. To get the Rom into the phone you need to go back to clockworkmod, go into mounts and storage and press the mount usb thing
Edit - to flash the boot.img find a thread about fastboot. Don't worry you'll get there
To get the ROM on the phone boot into cwm and GOTO mounts & storage
Then mount USB storage
It should now be detected as a drive on your PC and you can copy the ROM back over

Thanks. I did as you guys suggested and was able to install the Viper ROM (used the tweaked stock kernel as recommended in the download).
So have a ROM now but I have no service with my carrier and when I try to connect to wifi it says 'error'. Have I missed or done something wrong?

Got it resolved. I had used the tweaked kernel and assumed that this was not standard, so when asked about which kernel i was using i said it wasn't the viper one.
So i went back to basics and used the kernel that came with the ROM zip and just flashed both. Working fine now. The only question is whether I could have used the tweaked kernel and answered yes to using the viper version?
Thanks for your help. Felt like I have learned a fair bit in the last 12 hours though!
Well if you flashed a different custom kernel you can answer that with the question so it won't load the stock modules but backs up the custom modules from the custom kernel. This way it won't mess up functionality.
When you use a boot.img without it proper modules it can mess up those things you experienced. Hope i make my self clear

Sent from my Bladed One X. Blade v5.0.0 is here. Based on RUU and with OTA.
Help, I will describe the following and any help I would love. I have the PRIMOC VM usa HTC ONE V.
Using Hasoon2000's All in one toolkit I have successfully Unlocked my phone, flashed TWRP recover 2.4.4, got root, and made a backup.
I then continue on to wipe cache and system and Factory reset to prepare to install ANY ROM. When I try to install the rom every time it just says Error in /sdcard/...[wherever rom is] (Status 1) FAILED
So then I proceed to restore my backup (this is why you always make a backup) and that works fine
Does the "(Status 1)" mean anything important?
I thought this was happening because I was running the newer radio so I used the RUU tool and now am using the good radio (not 0928) But this did not fix anything. This same thing happens over again. I have checked to make sure and I do have full root privileges.
I then tried to flash boot.img first and jmz kernel flashed successfully, but no rom will flash.
Why will NO ROM install?
I feel like I am missing something obvious but can't figure it out.
Also, whenever I do the factory restore it goes through all the process then fails when trying to wipe sd:ext , but my card is not partitioned. <I didn't know if that would be any help>
I am not a complete newb at all of this (running lg optimus for years- just new to the htc methods)
NEED Help please...
Can anyone help me out with this?
I have not made any progress since yesterday. I am successful at flashing kernels, I have flashed the boot.img of the sic kernel, but on both kernels I have no WiFi with the stock ROM.
So I either need to find the stock boot.img or have help flashing a ROM that fails everytime.
When every instruction says "Extract ROM" that is only to pull out the boot.img right, we don't flash an extracted package you flash exactly what you downloaded right?

Hi Obeezy562,
my advice is to use the recovery program CMW or TWRP to re-format your external SD card. Then follow the normal instrutions and install the rom from zip using your recovery program. If you still have the same issue just let me know and I'll ponder longer.

Ok, so tonight I will reformat my sdcard with TWRP then try to install the ROM. I tried the CWM recovery, but it was not touch based and did not respond to the power button as the OK, only the volume rocker worked.
I will try CWM recovery if someone can provide a link to the latest one, perhaps I was using an old one.
Twrp 2.4.4 I've also had issues with flashing some roms then downgraded to Twrp 2.2.0 and everything has been well since

I can add that twrp 2.4 does have some issues. I use a cwm I found on google somewhere and if works just fine.

Hi All,
Yesterday I took my Tegra 3 (International) One X back to Stock ICS using RUU. Everything went smoothly after I relocked my bootloader and ran the RUU.
Then I proceeded to get all the OTA updates until I had JellyBean (3.14.707.24) with no further updates pending. Yay for Jellybean! The next thing I did was install CWM recovery and perform a nandroid backup (which didn't seem to restore later, although was created correctly).
At this point, I thought I would try using a CM10 rom to remove sense and I went ahead and installed it, flashing over the boot.img as one normally would, but it wouldn't boot. I later discovered that I needed a modded-boot.img (for new hboot 1.36), but not before I tried running the 3.14.707.24 RUU.
This RUU got stuck at sending.... and did not finish. I didn't leave it more than 20 minutes and tried twice. I also tried my ICS RUU to no avail.
Right now I have no Rom installed (from what I can tell), but I have full fastboot access and would like to know how I should proceed:
1) should I install the CM10 rom again with proper modded-boot.img (for hboot 1.36) and see if it boots? That would at least get me functional.
2) should I try another copy of the RUU for 3.14.707.24 JB? (i found one)
3) should I try a rom like Android Revolution HD which is OK to work with my new HBoot 1.36?
I don't want to do too much too fast since I know what I've done, and used to be really into this. The phone has been sitting a while since I upgraded my device and I'd like to get it working for travelling purposes. I'd be happy with a Stock Rom at this point...
Thanks for any willingness to help me

Ofcourse if you want CM flash the boot.img that is made for CM..And then flash .zip file..And ofcourse after flashing use
"fastboot erase cache"
Sometimes if you dont clear cache your phone won't boot..

As you already said the old boot.img wont work with the new hboot. Just install cm10.1 as usually. Or any other JB Rom that is out there for the One X.

I'll try this later when I have the time. Thanks to everyone who responded. I was nervous I was on the bad road. Seems I'm in healthy shape, just lacking a rom.
Two more questions:
1) Can I still revert to stock? If so, how since RUU seems to get stuck at sending and not actually restore?
2) Any idea why when I tried to restore my stock nandroid backup just after installing CWM (which backed up successfully) it would restore but not boot (hung on One splash screen)? Should I have to wait a seriously long time for it to boot (I never used to have to?)
Thanks in advance!

2. I did not use the boot.img from the nandroid backup. I've never sent a separate boot.img when restoring from Nandroid. Is that something I need to do going forward/have been lucky not having to do until now? Perhaps the ICS builds of roms had a more similar boot.img?

Hi, I've been having some problems with my Xperia Play getting stuck in a boot loop after flashing anything, or restoring a backup in CWM. This includes mods, like Adrenoboost, and the NXT Lockscreen, to themes. I have the Xperia Play R800x with an unlocked bootloader (via unlock code from Sony) and I'm using stock 2.3.3 Gingerbread, with the stock Kernel. I boot CWM by hotBooting LuPuS with Fastboot. I'm not really sure what to do because I really want to install these mods, and because restoring my nandroid backups also gets it stuck in a bootloop, I have to reflash the stock .ftf with FlashTool and reroot it every time.

Hi. Not all mods are 100% compatible with stock ROM so you should use a custom one. Many custom ROMs are better than the stock one.

Strange, I have the opposite problem: lupus doesn't boot any ROM for me, excepting ICs ones.

So here's what you need to do, since you want stock and and fastbootalot for recoveries y don't you download xperia play clockwork mod app? It's version 4 or something like that don't use xparts it don't work with our Verizon plays since you have root this will install recovery for you to flash Roms mods etc
I'll edit later with a link to the thread that has the clockwork mod app install that MAKE A NANDROID before you flash anything it helps worse case you hotboot lupus to restore your nandroid you have then reboot and guess what stock 2.3.3 Rom and kernel
