first off, I'd like to give thanks to everyone on this fantastic site, it's been incredible reading tutorials on here and learning a whole lot of tricks. this here is my first thread and before I go off to look for those I owe *thanks to* I have a question am hoping I can get help with.
my HTC One (GSM) is unlocked, has a Custom Recovery (TWRP 2.3.3) and is rooted. I can install custom 4.0.. ROMS (currently running myONEv RC9.5 FX+ by ckpv5). I have however tried several times to install 4.2.2 ROMS that are on here but to no avail. with the little knowledge that I have gained after several attempts, I realise that the 4.2.2 ROMS are not flashing properly as they don't bring on a custom installer like the ROMS that are working.
can somebody please tell me why? should I update my recovery? or is there something I'm missing?
P.S, I can't seem to get a working 2.5.5 TWRP, at the developers website, their download always dies at 99.9%. ALWAYS
my phones details are as follows
PRIMOU PVT SHIP S-ON RL

4.2.2 ROMS have some bugs so i suggest u try some other ROMS
however if u want 4.2.2 , u can always flash it and USE THE CORRECT KERNEL
BTW, 4.2 ROMS dont bring up a custom installer so its normal
if in ur recovery it says succesful then the rom is flashed properly but check if u have the appropriate kernel
You dont need to update recovery however it is best doing so; your current recovery is just fine
EDIT: use this kernel : http://www.mediafire.com/?y04jyyu2wk2fig3
well..

I want 4.2.2 so badly its eating me up :laugh:. will settle for a 4.1.. if I don't get it right. it's just so darn pleasing seeing my ROM much much higher than all my friends.. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
thank you for that piece of knowledge about the 4.2.2 ROMS not having installers. I pretty much thought that was the problem. I have been successful in installing the zips but not once have I gotten past the HTC developer warning (recovery boot animation?). I have been using the kernels that are inside the zips, going to try to load PACMAN 4.2.2 with the kernel you just gave me.
one last question, why can't I see the thank you button? is there a number of times am supposed to post before I can use it? am on a PC so am supposed to see everything, right??

If your GSM, the latest PACman ROM has issues
u can boot it with the given kernel but u wont get any mobile data connection
if u must try a 4.2 rom then go for Paranoid Android 3
dunno abt the thank u button, didnt happened to me(PC)
maybe you're just signed off?

Hey guys my buddy asked me to root rom and install a kernel on his one v from virgin mobile. being as i have done this before to multiple phones i was happy to help. i unlocked the bootloader, rooted it. everything was smooth up til there. i did not put a rom on it yet because he urged me to install a kernel so he could overclock his one v. i was aprehensive but i did it anyway. now his phone wont work. im not surprised but i need to fix it. ive tried installing roms to make it work because the backup ive created in twrp wont boot. so im thinking its a kernel problem. no matter what rom i use it will either not boot it will freeze at the screen that says htc and with the red wording below it. or it will boot into the rom and then freeze or run for about 30 sec then restart and it will repeat this until it dies. ive looked everywhere for ways to get it back to stock ive flashe countless roms none work ive flashed many kernels and none work as well. please help. i would like to get it working on a rom with a working kernel but i will put it back to stock if i have to. any help is greatly appreciated. thank you for your time.
You could flash a ruu ....but the problem is you don't have your software number ...or you have to go to another Rom ...which will make the phone boot normally .but don't forget to flash its specific kernel ...if you don't so that the Rom won't boot
What he said. I recommend using the RUU to restore back to stock.
Re-reroot/unlock it, then read more on which kernel to use. You most likely are using the wrong kernel.
What rom are you using currently - ?
What Kernel did you flash - ?
What error do you get with TWRP - ?
ive only been able to get a couple roms to actually boot. the one that is on it now is Amazing Sense. there is no kernel to flash with this rom and no boot.img for it either. i believe it is included. i have decided to RUU and try everything from the beginning. however i cannot find the RUU for HTC One V in the USA on Virgin Mobile. if you could post a link to that i would be very grateful. i dont see any errors on TWRP and i believe it is the stock rom i flashed last. but like i said with the rom im on it is included, so whatever is on there. thanks again for your help guys.
just curios would the sprint ruu work on the virgin mobile one? it may sound dumb but i have seen people use the recovery.img from it. was just wondering if it would brick the device or not. because i still havent found an RUU for virgin mobile one v in the US.

Ok. That's good. You use the same ICS kernel with the same ICS roms. No need to keep reflashing. I wouldn't flash a JB rom using a ICS kernel though.
Use this zip - http://androidfiles.org/uploads/index.php?dir=PrimoC/Kernels/ics
1. Extract the Boot.img from that zip and Fastboot flash boot boot.img in Bootloader
2. Wipe everything. Factory Reset, Dalvik, and System.
3. Flash an ICS based rom, Sense, or CM9.
4. Flash this after rom to get wifi working the zip above or below to fix Wifi.

Just ran the RUU and it did work everything is back to stock. the sprint RUU worked. i ran into a snag installing the Android SDK it wouldnt recognize that i had my Java JDK. even after messing with my registry it still wouldnt work so i just downloaded the x86 jdk and it worked. its unfortunate cuz now i have a jdk in x64 and x86 and its taking up space on my ssd. oh well i hope it doesnt mess with eclipse. i am now going to unlock the bootloader again and re root it and install probably cm9. thank you for all your help i will post again after i attempt to re unlock reroot and rom. thanks again
So I was craving vanilla android on my HTC One V (CDMA, primoc) so I unlocked the boot loader, rooted it and installed TWRP. I tried AOKP first, but I ended up in what was basically a boot loop (it would boot up into the setup/startup but within about 30 seconds to a minute it would reboot). After digging around a bit I found some information indicating that only AOSP ROMs would work on my phone, I think because I had taken all the OTA updates before installing the ROM. So I tried some AOSP ROMs, but virtually all of them do the same thing. I have been able to get the CodefireX ROM working, but MMS doesn't seem to work with it (I can send texts but don't recieve them). I'd love to be able to install CM9 or 10 but I can't seem to find any AOSP ROMs (other than CFX) that don't put me in a boot loop. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

I always flash the boot.img from the ROM zip, that is flashing the kernel isn't it?
The following have support for the PrimoC OTA update:
-RhythmicROM
-x3reme Sense v5
-I have also gotten PACman to work using the CFX kernel (flash the ROM but use the boot.img from CFX)
-demi_fiend is working on a ROM and kernel that is basically a stock ROM (at least that's how I understand it). The kernel is available, but the ROM hasn't been uploaded yet.
Sounds like you have what I had yesterday. Had you already allowed any over-the-air updates?
If so, check out this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2018518
Option #2 worked nicely for me.
still fash them sepreately,
for sense based go for titanium
and aosp based fgo for hell boy

Please read the op. The poster has a primoc.
Ya I had actually already tried option #2 over there but got this error...

From what I understand from the responses I got on that thread my main ver was updated with the OTA and the RUU they are using only supports the one previous to it.
The following have support for the PrimoC OTA update:
-RhythmicROM
-x3reme Sense v5
-I have also gotten PACman to work using the CFX kernel (flash the ROM but use the boot.img from CFX)

Thanks for the info! I'll give those a try.

Well RhythmicROM is giving me the same issue as all the others. I might try flashing demi_fiend's kernel and see if that helps...
*EDIT* So I just realized it might be important to mention that every time I do a factory reset with TWRP it fails and says sd-ext can't be wiped. I've been able to wipe everything else though, and was able to get CFX working so I assumed that wasn't the problem.
my bad sorry
Dear forumers.
I usually do not ask stupid questions as that, but there I am very very confused
I just want to install some new OS to my XPERIA S (LT26i). Now I have all stock cellphone conditions with original 4.0.4 Android version.
My wish is to have phone fastest as it can be and all stable. I have read many many topics and guides there but I am still confused where to start. I need all flashtool, bootloader unlock, root, recovery, flash kernel, flash rom and do not know what to do first, second, third,... And I do not want to break up phone.
Can someone please kindly understand me and copy links of actual guides in right order? I need suggestions for 4.4 version OS-s too.
Best regards

Is it? If I go to Update Center or on PC in Companion it says me that phone is up to date. It cant find any updates. I don't know why?
Can someone just tell me where I must begin, and what to do next, and what is the last thing to do? (guess flash new rom)
I just need order of work from all stock phone. I understend the guides and I can find them, but do not know what is the right order.
Probably you don't know that it is not so easy to first doing that, but for noobs that forum is so hard to understand especially because of risk to damage your phone is something goes wrong.
Pleeeeeeeeeease

Hello Franklin.
I have just unlocked bootloader on my phone.
What I have to do next? Root, kernel flash, recovery?

Now you need to download a rom from the development section, then open the zip on your pc, extract the boot.img. Then copy the rom zip file on to your phone and flash the boot.img using fastboot or Flashtool. Then turn on your phone, and keep on pressing the volume up button to enter recovery. Then wipe everything except system and sdcard and then flash the rom.zip. Reboot your phone and it should be running kitkat

I have installed this on my xperia but it's not that it has to be. It's version 4.6 not 4.8 and it's not 4.4 kitkat bur 4.1.2 JB. OTA updater says: Error fetching update info: Invalid ROM (LeOpArDx) & device (lt26ii) combo!
And device is LT26i not ii. At 60 page of discussion the others have the same problem with version and updating.

Well guys, I installed PAC KK Rom some time ago, but I got tired of it, I mean it has some cool features, but my battery man, it's not for me. So, now I need to go back to a JB Rom, I saw that I needed a proper hboot or something like that, a JB Hboot, how do I install that? Or I could just flash a jb rom with gapps, and boot.img afterwards?
man... LP his here and want to go back to JB ? at least stay on KK lol... for me cyanogen KK has a nice battery time..

I haven't tried cm, I'll try it in a bit, I'm having a different issue now... When I switched to PAC I used hasoon2000 toolkit, but now it just wont work, I tried to send my phone to recovery from the toolkit and wasn't able to... I'm having issues with the drivers, I think I'm gonna have to use another computer for it... Anyways, thanks for the idea, I only need the toolkit to push the boot.img since I have no idea how to work with fastboot lol.
