[Q] How to choose a ROM - HTC One V

I just got my replacement HTC One V CDMA unlocked and rooted. I want to overclock and understand I need a custom ROM to do so. My first HTC One V I bricked trying to flash rhythmicrom. I unlocked, rooted, backed up using TWM. Each time I tried to flash the new ROM it would get stuck on the HTC screen with the red writing talking about developmental purposes, etc. Each time it would hang on that screen I would simply do a recovery to the back up file and everything would go back to normal. The last time I tried to flash it hung up, and when I tried to go back it would not go back. I am not sure why Rhythmicrom would not work. Is there another one I should try? Does it matter if my HTC one V is a newer version, etc? I just need a basic ROM with the ability to overclock. MMS is a necessity and the camera would be nice. Thanks for any help you can give me.

Did you make sure to flash the appropriate kernel via fastboot aftter flashing the ROM, because if not that could be the cause of your phone failing to boot. As for ROM's, well I guess that depends on whether you have a PrimoU or a PrimoC, I personally use SHPONGLE for the PrimoU, but I can't comment on the PrimoC as I do not own one

Thank you for the reply. Yes I used the kernel (boot.img) that was included with the rythmicrom rom. I have a PrimoC. I was reading and see that my problem might be caused due to maybe having a newer version of the phone and the hboot or radio might be different?

Hey, so some kernels support the newer radio and some do not. If you are on the newer radio: Baseband version 1.00.00.0928 (check in about phone in settings) then you have to use a kernel that supports the OTA, such as for sense use the FOTA kernel posted under the cdma development thread, for android 4.1 use the kernel I made that can be found in the slim bean rom thread by curtis, and for 4.2 rythmic rom's kernel should work just fine. If not, try the codefirex kernel from simon's rom (original dev. thread) but you'll lose functionality of the camera as it is an ion kernel.
I hope this helps, quote me in the reply if you have more questions, otherwise I may forget to check back here.

why u no flash kernel omg! just read the trouble shooting section

Thank you very much for you help. I checked my radio and it is 1.00.00.0928. Is this the reason why the rythmicrom kernel would not work? So you recommend using the FOTA kernel with which ROM? Sorry for the dumb questions. I tried my best to read everything I could before asking for help. I just don't want to brick my replacement phone. I am not sue they will be as understanding as they were the first time.

well it shouldn't have been the reason because if you type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" in command line for the kernel you want to flash then it should flash correctly and rythmic rom's kernel has supported new radio since the beginning pretty much. Unless you have a really old version or something. The FOTA kernel is for sense roms or cm9 (which is based on android 4.0 ics). I really like and very much recommend MyOneV rom that curiousnoob has ported under the cdma dev. thread. It's fast, smooth, and has the least amount of lag compared to any other sense rom that I've tried. It's my daily and go-to rom!
You shouldn't brick your phone as long as you fastboot flash the correct kernel (for primoc/cdma), even if you end up in a bootloop you can hold power button and get back to bootloader to flash a new rom or restore a backup

Thanks for the information. Is it necessary to wipe the sd card before installing the new ROM? This is how I bricked my last one. I read somewhere that I needed to do a full wipe including the sd card. The sd card is where my recovery was and when I wiped it I didn't have anything to recover to. I tried RUU and that did not work.
So I think I might do this kernel [KERNEL][VM/PRIMOC][ICS:Sense] FOTA-Compatible Sick Kernel
With this ROM: myOneV 9.5+CDMA
Does this look ok?

It isn't necessary to wipe sd card, although if you get any weird bugs that no one else has reported (read threads) then yeah, I'd wipe sd card. In fact, I do actually wipe everything (except sd-ext) from twrp 2.6.1. But before I wipe I mount usb to my computer and copy over the twrp folder with my backup and any pictures I wanna save. Then, wipe everything including sd card (although not necessary I like to do it) and then mount usb again and copy the files I need (rom.zip and twrp folder). But to do a full wipe technically it's just wiping data, cache, dalvik cache, and system.
RUU will not work if you are on the newer hboot version (forgot the number but it's around here which is new vs old).
that combination works for me (I'm on new hboot and radio) so should work fine! btw that's the rom and kernel I mentioned earlier idk if you caught that or not

You flashed the fota sick kernel? Well, you can update by just wiping dalvik and cache and flashing the new rom, but it's a full wipe (same process as before) is always recommended over the previous "update"

Yes, I was able to flash the FOTA sick kernel. I have it set at 1.709 GHz max and 245 mhz min. with the I/O scheduler on noop. I put the governor on "performance" and did a benchmark test with antutu. My score was 7069 which didn't look all that great compared to the others. Does this sound about right? I was also only getting 6.2 fps on the 3D testing.

hmmm... I have no idea... I've never really messed with benchmarks before, don't think they matter much, I'm happy just having a lag-free phone btw for typical use, I'm sure you know, performance gov. will kill your battery fairly quickly, so I usually use [email protected]$$v2 gov. or lionheart, but usually the first

You are right, the phone is more snappy for sure. What GHz do you use for everyday? I was using [email protected]$$v2 gov but put it on performance just during the test. I also have buzzlauncher as my launcher so I am not sure if that is taking away from the performance, but it looks nice. I am just happy that it is working, so again thanks for your help.

[Q] Kernels and restoring a nandroid backup

After flashing a kernel, they say to do a full wipe (and then reinstall the ROM?).
My question is whether after the wipe, can I restore a nandroid backup? Setting it up from scratch and just the way I like it is quite tedious if I were to do this each time, plus download the apps from the market etc. My arc is my main phone so I don't have the luxury of flashing ROMs and kernels all the time.
Do let me know if that's possible. If not, can you tell me how you guys do it?
My arc is running Stock ICS 4.0.4 with an unlocked bootloader.
I believe you got it all wrong.... you need to do a full wipe before installing a new ROM (to make sure it works properly and nothing is left from the old one).... not a kernel... You can flash kernels as often you want without any wipes. Just dont forget the WIFI-modules (only of needed by ther kernel).

Just think about it, it would be pointles to delete evrething and then restore it back..
P.S.: sh*t I pushed the wrong button and thanked you instead of quote....
yea..there is no point restoring the nand after flashing a kernel...full wipe and fresh installing rom is highly recommended..
Best way is to tryout a kernel..if everything is well and good then better stick to it.
afterall wat do u look in a kernel? OC,UV, good battery life and smooth UI..once you attain all these then stick to it..
btw i have tried many kernels this month without doing a full wipe..i never faced any problem as such..i just uninstall all OC, UV apps just to be safe
Thanks for the replies guys. And an extra thanks to Antochrist for his mistake. LOL!
Another reason for my question was because one of the kernel developers said to do a clean install.
Let's say I flash a kernel with additional wifi modules. Suppose I want to get back to stock kernel and its wifi modules, do I just flash the stock kernel or do I need to do anything extra to fix the wifi?

Happy new years everyone!
I am pretty new to using custom ROMS and kernels and have made a standard noob mistake
which was forgetting to back up all the original software (ROM, kernel, etc). I realized this quite later
and though I have found the original ROM for my GT-P5110 I seem to have trouble finding the stock Kernel
(the one it had when it left the factory; 4.0.4) I did a search and have found my search-fu to be weak.
Can anyone help me find the stock rom for the GT-P5110 (Galaxy note 2 10.1)?
And one more thing, should I get the Galaxy S3 LTE vs. LG Optimus G vs.your opinion?
(I am in South Korea btw) Is Korean version is any different or any harder to root or to
flash a custom ROM, anyone have any experience?
Many thanks
But I did not get the Right Answer...

- Does Restoring NANDROID
- Restore 'Stock Kernel' along with 'RIL file', RAMDISK - INIT### n stuff​
Which Hyperion users need to fiddle with..
But kernel and ram disk are stored in the boot partition so does NANDROID back that up too ?
and Can you help me with RIL file related info..
Thanks
NANDroid only backs up ROM. It doesn't back up kernel. Kernel is always flashed externally, it's the same with all Android devices.

So just flash the CWM zip and radio after wiping cache and data?
Would dirty flashing from a JB ROM cause issues? For my wife's phone and she hates having to set her screens up again.
Also, any improvement in signal/speed/battery life? She gets horrible battery and signal.

You can always do a screen-shot of the home screens for reference. But I dunno. Try it out and let me know. Might only work for AOSP ROMs. Remember to make a nandroid first!
And since it's rooted , you can always restore from Titanium.
Seems to be much smoother and GoogleNow loads in about 1 second.
New radio gives me much better 3G speeds and 4G stays connected longer than before. It's no placebo effect either. I can actually download full ROMs without 4G crashing on me. YMMV
Also just realized, I accidentally kept Air Kernel R1 stable in the ROM....oops...who uses stock kernel anyway? I needed it for BLN.

Somewhat off topic, but I did the same thing as you. Meaning I need BLN, but I flashed mathkid's kernel. I know it's all personal preference and YMMV, but how's the Air kernel on the stock OTA working out for you so far?
EDIT. Okay, thanks for the reply. Mathkid's was a little laggy at first, but that may just be my phone. It's been acting up like crazy lately with any/all ROMs/kernels (that weren't completely OTA versions). Everything smoothed out though by the morning (flashed the kernel late last night).
Everything seems smooth and fast. Not been long enough to tell about the battery.

You can flash the bootloader tar in either ODIN, or just extract the .img and flash that via fastboot. Whichever way you prefer.

I honestly don't know what the differences are. As far as I'm aware, the bootloader has no way of increasing speed or performance. I used ODIN to flash everything and my bootloader stayed unlocked.
And, no, you will not loose root as the ROM is pre-rooted.

[Q] PA 3.00 doesn't boot

Hi everyone,
I wasn't used to consider myself a too-much-noob anymore, but now I've plenty of doubts.
So, here's my problem: I've decided to give the latest ParanoidAndroid release a try and my maguro was "oem locked". Then, I've run the command "fastboot oem unlock" and copied all files I needed (PA rom, GlaDos v2.2 and latest GApps) into my /sdcard folder (usual job). I've rebooted into recovery (latest touch CWM), formatted /system, /data, /cache (usual full wipe), searched for the files and flashed them.
When it was time to reboot, the phone got stuck at the first screen (black, with the white "Google" and the white opened padlock). In other words, the bootanimation didn't even start.
Then, I've re-downloaded the stuff, double-checked all Md5 sums, re-copied everything in the sdcard but the result didn't change.
I've tried to re-flash the stock unrooted rom, then repeating the steps without formatting /system. I've also tried to not flash the kernel. No way the rom could even boot.
Now I'm seriously wondering what's wrong with what I've done . For completeness, my bootloader version is LC03 and the radio is XXLJ1 (same as the fully stock android bundle that can be found here)
I've also checked (maybe too much quickly, I may admit) the threads for PA and GlaDos, but I haven't seen anyone complaining about the same problem...
Could you guys please help me?
First of all....
all you need to do to wipe is select
FACTORY RESET in custom recovery
Secondly:
GlaDos 2.2 is probably not going to work with PA3.0

I've tried with all releases which can be found here
Flash Kernel too
Hi,
When the new PA version was uploaded (20 Feb), this was the warning posted by the developer:
WARNING
As I didn't have so much time, I couldn't make it booting with default kernel (Need to update prebuilt kernel). So if you're gonna use it BE SURE YOU FLASH A CUSTOM 4.2.2 KERNEL!

So I recommend you download any latest 4.2.2 kernel (AK kernel or franco) and flash it alongwith the ROM.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Neeraj

Thank you guys, I've solved (I've tried just with the factory reset as said by pirateghost, but I was used to format /system, /data and /cache when it was time to flash roms like AOKP and everything used to work properly) (I was used to do the same with the Nexus S).
Now I'm running the 15feb release with the stock android kernel (which comes with the stock 4.2.2 factory bundle) and everything just works as expected.
Anyway, I still can't get the reason why GlaDOS shouldn't work with the 20feb release. I mean, it's a custom kernel and it should work as well as AK or franco kernels, shouldn't it? If I'm wrong, could you briefly tell me why? (sorry, I won't move to other kernels, as I personally love GlaDOS and it provides my GNex with the optimal equilibrium performances/battery life)
EDIT:
alongside the 15feb release, I've tried to flash GlaDOS (just factory-resetting before flashing), but nothing boots. Restored the backup, now I'm still running PA with the stock kernel

things disappear when flashing ROM? ever happen to you?

I've flashed 3-4 ROMs on my Dinc2. (Magnolia, IC Tazz, Skyraider, ViperINC). I've done the wipe cache/davlik/format before each flash. After testing each ROM, I decided on Magnolia, and did a full superduperwipe via Chillybean's AntiVenom. With each ROM flash I've noticed things being different and outright missing. For example, YouTube may or may not be there after flash.
Is this normal? I've tried formatting with ext3 and ext4, noticing no speed or function different... but could this have something to do with it?
I'm still sorta new at this flashing thing. If there's something I'm missing or doing wrong, I'm open to ALL suggestions.
My phone is a Verizon Dinc2, radio is 320, and my recovery is 4EXT.

Some Deva just won't put it in their Roms. Most the apps just need to be redowbliaded from the market.
Sent from a phone HTC forgot. Right now its running Chilly powered PAC n a lil NOS jus for fun.
Thanks but that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying I can load the same ROM from the same file and there be different apps or features each time I flash it.

Then you probably aren't doing a full wipe, assuming the rom isn't an aroma installed rom and you choose different features.
yes, they are Aroma installed, using EXT4 as my recovery. I'm talking about (specifically) Magnolia and ViperINC. I've noticed different apps being loaded with each flash. I use Chilly's AntiVenom wiper, then let the ROM do another wipe of it's own choosing. It's just weird, I thought I'd ask if anyone else ever had the same experience.

Hi Friend,
Best way to overcome this is to install Titanium Backup from play store and take a full backup of your apps+data and you can restore the same after flashing new rom.
Regarding youtube you can flash GAPPS from this link goo.im/gapps (install according to your android version)

Um, if you're flashing sense roms, don't flash gapps... Those are specifically for aosp, cm base and aokp roms.

Which recovery are you using? And confirm your model (GSM/CDMA).
Btw, have you wiped data,cache and system before flashing a new rom?
Try out the marvellous rom and a different kernel

Bootloop can happen due to many reasons...wrong kernel, wrong gapps, rom is overclocked to name a few. Some roms are overclocked and this causes problems in some sets.
Try replacing the kernel files manually or flash a recommended kernel that is NOT overclocked.
I'm assuming you did the partitions as required(3 different partitions i think).
such a nube

Try the wildfire s toolkit to flash the kernel and use minitool partition software to make the partitions as mentioned in the rom page
