[Q] Sense ROM to Non Sense ROM - HTC One X

Hi all,
I'm on RENOVATE ROM at the moment. Is it possible to switch to aokp or aosp roms with just flashing boot.img using fastboot and installing the ROM from recovery??

Yes!
1. Flash the boot.img from ROM.zip via fastboot and then fastboot erase cache
2. Go to recovery and flash this script : http://d-h.st/kG0 (it wipes data/cache/dalvic/system)
3. Flash the rom.zip and gapps.
4. Reboot!

[Q] "failed installation" of ARHD 18.1

Hello,
Id appreciate any help with my problem:
After wishing to upgrade to JB from ARHD 9 (ICS), I flashed the correct Hboot and upgraded CWM to 5.8.4.0. However, when trying to flash the ARHD ROM, im getting a "failed installation" message after selecting the zip on the SD card. I thought it might be the boot.img i was using (from the download section), so used the one from the ROM zip instead. No luck. I erase the cache etc very time I can.
Any ideas to what might be the problem?
Thanks in advance
so you have a hboot 1.3* and you flashed the boot.img with fastboot command
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
then entered recovery and did a FULL wipe (also dalvik cache under the advanced tab)
then trying to install the rom.zip ?
install failed, redownload the rom, might be corrupted !

[Q] how to make kernel back to stock?

Hi,
I updated my kernel for install CM10.1.
now I want to flash HDR 18.2 And I know it works best with the stock kernel.
how do I install the stock kernel?
Thanks!
Flash the boot.img that you have in zip of rom or from OP of thread of your rom
you have to make an "erase cache" (with command: "fastboot erase cache") before and after flash the new boot.img

oh, so its that easy? i thought i need to do something complicated for changing the kernel.
but u say to do it just like i flash a normal rom?
thanks! :silly:
For change the kernel, you have to flash the boot.img from fastboot and making an erase cache.
After, you have to flash the modules (if you are flashing a custom kernel).
If you need change the rom, you have to do:
- A backup of your currently rom
- Reboot in fastboot and making a "fastboot erase cache"
- Flash the boot.img (fastboot flash boot boot.img)
- Another erase cache
- Reboot in recovery
- Full wipe
- Flash new rom
- Reboot & Enjoy

[Q] Boot image kernel with fastboot ?

Hi,
I got a HTC One X (JB, ARHD 19.2)
I'd like to use the XM-Kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2136731)
but I don't understand the 4th instruction here given in the kernel thread.
"1.Install modules from recovery (Install the zip)
2.Wipe dalvik cache.
3.Erase fastboot cache
4.Flash kernel image with fastboot"
Flash kernel image with fastboot ?
Do I have to unzip the kernel on my computer, use the " new_boot.img " file inside the folder ?
So... The question is : Where's the kernel image ??
the boot.img could be in the .zip file. open it and check it......i dont know if its need to be repacked for the rom you are using by the way....
Open the xmkernel zip and extract 'boot.img' or 'senseboot.img' to your fastboot folder. Copy the intact zip to your sdcard and flash in cwm after flashing kernel. Xmister advises that no repacking is required, but I used the online service anyway.
Thanks for this post, answered my queston. One more thing:
Is there a specific fastboot command for flashing kernal image like there is for, say, boot.img
i.e. fastboot flash boot boot.img?

Yes its
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
And as additional info, if you ever made a nandroid backup with twrp recovery you get a boot.emmc.win file (its the boot.img)
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.emmc.win
Fastboot erase cache

boot-loop with cm11 legacy kernel

Hello, I installed last Legacy Xperia CM11 kernel:
Code:
# .fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then I reboot:
Code:
# .fastboot reboot
Now I have a loop in the mobile with the Legacy Xperia animation.
I try to install older kernel, but same problem. How could I fix this?
Thanks and best regards.
Did you install the ROM? That kernel works only with CM11.0 LegacyXperia ROM.
Hello,
I fix it installing older kernel, then install again the last kernel.
Regards.
After install the kernel you need enter in the recovery and install the rom (KitKat for this kernel). If you don't change the rom, the phone doesn't work. :good:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47895754&postcount=1
Steps required for correct installation (order is important):
1: Flash boot.img in fastboot & reboot into recovery
1.1 (optional): If the device is not booting, reboot to bootloader again and run:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata
2: Enter recovery, go to mounts and storage
3: Format /system, then /data and then /cache (Important step!)
4: Flash update zip
5: Flash gapps (recommended package is the one provided in the link below)
The non booting issue is right there in the original 4.4 thread instructions
If it still doesn't boot then rather than multi flashing Kernels, you should flash the stock ICS 4.1.B.0.587 full ftf firmware and start again from the very beginning

[Q] Boot loop and can't find appropriate boot.img

Hi
I've been given a One X (he bought an M8) and I thought I'd easily put on KK 4.4.4, but I have hit a brick wall.
It was running ViperX 2.6.0 with Hboot 0.95, and it's S-ON.
Well 4.4.4 needs a Hboot above 1.28, so the flashing failed.
So I did my homework and got the CID (it's HTC-023) to install the firmware so that I could update the Hboot via OTA.
So I installed the boot.img for the HTC-023 firmware and that (of course) was a an error as I didn't have a copy of the boot.img for the ViperX 2.6.0.
Then the firmware was a .rar file and didn't install anyrate.
So now it's in bootloop.
I have not been able to find a copy of ViperX 2.6.0 to extract the required boot.img
I've got TWRP with Sideloader installed, and ADB works fine.
So I am stuck (like my One X really) so any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Solution
I thought I should post the solution.
The essential problem was to get a Hboot 1.28 or higher so that a new version of Cyanogenmod could be installed.
On this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376&page=189 is the following from ClydeB1
To flash you need to run the following commands: (It is advised to take a backup of your data and important files on your sd card)
1. Lock bootloader - fastboot oem lock
2. Boot to RUU mode - fastboot oem rebootRUU
3. Flash firmware - fastboot flash zip firmware.zip (if you get an error then rerun this command)
Note: The firmware will flash the new hboot, as well as a new stock boot.img and stock recovery.img.
To flash a custom rom you then need to do the following:
4. Unlock bootloader - fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin (you can use the same unlock_code file as you used previously, check your emails if you can't find it, or else reapply at htcdev.com)
5. Flash custom recovery - fastboot flash recovery nameofrecoveryfile.img
Note: If the unlock process wiped your sd card you may need to boot to recovery and mount usb storage to copy the rom file across again. If your phone won't boot into recovery then run command - fastboot erase cache and try again.
If you then wish to flash a JB custom rom:
6. Flash new boot.img from rom - fastboot flash boot boot.img
7. For good measure - fastboot erase cache
8. Boot to recovery and flash rom
I followed these steps exactly and it worked perfectly. I did need to use CWM as with TWRP the touch screen did not work.
and have more ease way to do this. You are with too low HBOOT and you can run RUU and then update the phone to latest JB because are you know witch HBoot you install to your phone
