[Q] About to install ARHD. Please check my process....

Hi all,
I'm looking at flashing ARHD. I've read through the instructions at least 20 times but I'm unsure of just a few things and want to be 100% before trying this as there are a heaps of people who seem to have bricked by not following instructions properly.
As I understand, the process is as follows.......
1. Download super wipe zip and place it on SD card.
2. Download rom and place on SD card.
3. Download firmware package and un-rar.
4. Download 'Official Clockworkmod Touch Recovery 5.8.3.1'
5. Disable antivirus protection on PC.
6. Ensure ADB drivers are installed correctly on PC.
7. Unlock Bootloader via HTC-dev
8. Boot phone in to bootloader and enter Fastboot Mode
9. Install "recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img" via fastboot
command in ADB console.
10. Boot in to the newly installed recovery and perform a nandroid backup.
11. Reboot phone into bootloader and enter Fastboot mode.
12. Run "install-boot-windows.bat' as administrator to install the new firmware
13. Reboot and enter recovery mode.
14. Using the newly installed recovery, flash the
"Android_Revolution_HD_Super_Wipe_One_X.zip" on the SD card.
15. While still in recovery, flash the Android Revolutipn ROM zip.
16. Reboot and enjoy.
Have I missed anything there and is this in the correct order?
At what point does the PJ46IMG.zip need to be installed? The instructions for this are unclear.
Also, in the event something goes wrong and the phone doesn't boot (but i can get into recovery mode), can I just flash the backup file? Or does the fact that I've overwritten the boot.img via Fastboot mean that I can't restore the backup without flashing a stock boot.img via fastboot first?
Thanks and sorry to be a n00b. I'm just finding the order a little mismatched moving between various threads and want to be 100% sure.
Cheers.

You'll be fine. Both Firmware 1.26 and 1.28 is OK with arhd.
On going back to your nandroided stock rom, flash your stock boot.img then restore stock nandroid.

Remember to flash boot.img before the rom
I got my One X yesterday, did all you did BUT, after step 11. nandroid backup, I did these: Nandroid -> Super wipe -> Flash boot.img -> Flash ARHD 3.1.0 and everything works fine

I think this should be in the Q&A section
Having said that, did you flash the boot.img via fastboot on your computer (fastboot flash boot boot.img)? Also did you use the command fastboot erase cache? If not, try those

yep did flash the boot img
didnt to the erase cache
how do i go about doing that?

And it was the boot.img you took from the rom download from the zip?
You go on cmd if you're windows, navigate to your fastboot folder
Type...
cd c:/(directory of your fastboot folder)
Mine would be
Cd c:/android
Then type
Fastboot erase cache
Ensure your device is in fastboot USB mode in the bootloader first.

First and foremost upgrade to latest cwm 5.8.4.0 as earlier versions have usb mounting and charging issues. Once upgraded you can copy your desired rom and then flash.
In your steps, I didn't see flashing the boot.img that comes inside the rom.zip file. You should flash it using fastboot from your pc with
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Before you boot your ROM. Otherwise, since cwm can't flash it, you will be booting whatever kernel is already installed.

Phone keeps rebooting randomly, not charging

Help me please.
I was previously on ARHD ICS and i decided to try CM10. I did a wipe and flashed paranoid cm10 in CWM, then flashed the boot.IMG and then cleared cache etc.
However, the phone starts up, boots in to cm10...but doesn't charge anymore. It also reboots randomly when i use it and it get s stuck in a loop for a while and then it boots into cm10 fine again.
I've tried loads of different rome and its doing the same thing. PLEASE help.
Hboot is 1.12

Desperate here anyone,?

Did you do a full wipe before flashing (/system, /data and /cache)?

Yep. Numerous times. I have no idea what it's doing. It will boot into the android system, I'll use it for 5 minutes or so without issue, then all of a sudden the 'shutting down' dialog appears with Android System in written at the top in the background..This is on all the roms i tried.

Very Easy To Fix This Problem
First You Must Unlock Your HOX ....
Flash Stock Recovery .... Then Do Factory Rest From BootLoader .
Now Extract "boot.img" From The Rom You Want To Flash ( use winrar/7-Zip )
Flash "boot.img" You Extracted From Fastboot By THis Command
Fastboot Flash Boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Now Flash ClockModRecovery And Open It
Mount Use Storage From Recovery then Copy Your rom.zip To HOX .
Do Full Wipe From Recovery
And Now Install The Rom From The Recovery ........ and restart your phone
if your HOX stuck on first boot just reboot the phone and wait ...
sorry for bad english ...

I've already flashed the boot.img. This isn't the first time i've flashed a rom

Ok ..... do you try factory rest ?
Your Must Do Factory Rest And The Stock Recovery Only Can Do That
Flash The Stock Recovery ( Download From Attachments "StockRecovery.Zip" )
Fastboot Flash Recovery rstock.img
Then Back To HBOOT Menu And Do "FACTORY REST"
Now Flash "Boot.Img" For Your Custom Room " Must Flash Boot.Img First Then Flash The rom As I Know "
And The Other You Know
The Trick Here Is Format Your SdCard Completely By "Factory Rest"

i have tried cm 10.1 RC5 and jellybam stable and many more roms , but the same problem remains always ..
help me plz

Are you sure you flashed the boot image and wiped everything properly (as described in most ROM's threads)?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

that problem will mostly occur if you are installling a rom in unclean way..
make sure you do superwipe and before flashing rom flash its boot.img and do- "fastboot erase cache" afterwards
then flash it from recovery

most of the people here know the procedures. give us information that will help you solve the problem. like is your phone already rooted. the steps you do when flashing. like what did you really do before that error appears. something like that.

you do not need to root, flash custom recovery and unlock the bootloader everytime.
you did not flash the rom's boot.img. everytime you flash rom or kernel dont forget to flash boot.img. place the rom's boot.img inside your fastboot folder. then do the command:
fastboot erase cache.
fastboot flash boot boot.img.
then reboot.

yeah. you still have to that. extract the boot.img from the rom. place the boot.img inside your fastboot folder. boot your phone into bootloader. it you see fastboot usb you can now flash the boot.img.
open command prompt. navigate to your fastboot folder or you can just right click on the fastboot folder and select "enter comman prompt here" something like that. then enter this commands.
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash boot boot.img
that's two different command.

it does'nt matter it you flash boot.img before of after. but me i always flash boot.img first. because if you flash the rom first. you'll boot your phone to recovery then after you flash rom you'll boot to bootloader, where you will press power button + vol down. while if you flash boot.img first. after that just go to hboot then select recovery then flash rom. well that's just me. hehe.

Don't forget to erase fastboot cache after flashing boot.img...
Also in recovery, you need to wipe data as well if your coming from a different rom...
