Hello, I was trying to get CyanogenMod 7.1 on my HTC Desire Z (from Bell), and used this XDA guide to attempt to downgrade first. However the method used to gain temp root did not work. So I switched to this official CyanogenMod Guide. After I got the device downgraded with their guide, I then rooted and got ClockworkMod Recovery working. Lastly, I attempted to use the CM Recovery to install the official 7.2 mod for my device. It installed, but when I boot the phone normally, the loading screen of CM 7.1 just continually loops, and does not actually start. I also tried to install the 7.2 for the device, but got the same result. My end goal is to get the device running 4.4 (or some OS more current than 2.2) using Andromadus Flinny CM11.
Additional info: HBoot-0.84.2000, S-OFF, Radio-26.03.02.18_M3 and CW Recovery v3.0.2.4. (Still running 2.2, build # 1.34.707.3) I did search through the forums for posts pertaining to my problem, but I didn't see any. Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong, or have any suggestions? Thanks, AndyFactor.
Try doing a full wipe in recovery than flash again the ROM then gapps, reboot
If this doesn't work let me know

Haven't got enough posts to publish in the dev part of the forum and I can't find anyone with a DHD and this problem.
I'm on mike1986' Android Revolution HD 2.0.7 with senseless and trying to upgrade to 2.0.8 - with senseless.
I can't boot into ClockworkMod Recovery through Rom Manager or the boot menu (vol down at boot). Running 2.5.1.3 and it just hangs on the HTC screen. Tried flashing it twice from Rom Manager - no joy.
Looking for any advice - the rest of the phone runs fine btw.

Try to use the LASTEST version of CWM. i had this issues before coz i'm using the old version that i got from torrent. after i installed/ overwrite the old one, it works like charm! gud luck!
Cheers for the help, one question tho. As far as I am aware the latest CWM is 2.5.1.3. should I try using the "flash an older CWM" in Rom Manager?
All done, a massive thanks dude for the help.

Well, this is what you need to check before u want it to works..
1. Firstly, NOT to update your phone with latest firmware that is 17.2/17.5 (this will not work for ALL attempt)
2. Root your phone - apps needed (superuser & VISIONary+)
3. ROM Manager (get the latest one and granted as superuser) with the right Flash CWM Recovery.
4. S-OFF (check on the pinned DHD Android development thread)
i think that's all.. other might add in some info if i got myself less on it.. thank you
I'd try flashing an older recovery and flashing back to the newest. Remember you can also get to recovery by switching off and charging.

I recently purchased and rooted my galaxy S3 on Wind mobile (SGH-T999v) running on 4.1.1 and i have encountered issues installing roms onto the device let alone finding roms that are compatible with the phone. I am completely honest in saying that I have no experience in using android (I had an iphone before but it sucked ) but I am eager to learn the many additional features that are available by rooting. I have looked through threads on this site but I have had trouble finding roms to use. I tried installing cyanogenmod 10 by following the instructions for wind S3's on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775616 but to no avail. I booted my device in recovery then cleared user data and cache before booting the zip file for cyanogenmod. After a few seconds it would say installation aborted. Since I am new to the rooting scene it might be a simple mistake that I am making. If anyone knows some way to fix this or anything that could help that would be great.
Besides that, if anyone wants to share any good roms/themes that I could use and that would work on Wind mobile it would be much appreciated. Like I said earlier I am brand new to rooting so please pardon my inexperience. Thanks
You're probably using an outdated version of CWM Recovery. If you are rooted, go into the Play Store, install GooManager, and install TWRP, boot into recovery, and try to install Cyanogen Mod 10 using that

How do you preform an update for CWM, i used TWRP to boot in recovery mode but i dont think it did anything, then tried installing by running the Cyanogenmod zip file in recovery mode but it failed again
Hi all,
I have problem with Android Revolution HD by mike1986 ROM. Everything working well expect restarting. If I restarted, phone didnt start rom but only clockworkmod and only one way how to correctly start phone is connect via cable to computer and over fastboot boot boot.img push boot.img into phone.. And second issue - in clockworkomod I cant make backup - everytime it ends with error message..
Any idea how to fix it? Thanks
I have this exact problem too. I'm ENG S-OFF and ARHD 9.2 installer is fine until the very last step when it goes "assert failed" and something about extracting the boot.img to /tmp/boot.img.
I tried going about it the same way I read before with CyanogenMod where I'd manually flash the boot.img in fastboot to make sure it was flashed properly or I'd just get bootloop into recovery, but it's a no-go. It flashes fine, of course, but it doesn't help one bit. I'll be damned if I'm giving up and moving to CyanogenMod again after going through all the guides and reading page up and page down of things that basically didn't help me.
Does anyone have a solution or an idea why ARHD 9.2 fails when extracting the boot.img to /tmp?
EDIT: Same issue with ARHD 7.3 btw.
EDIT2: I gave up and went to CyanogenMod 10.2. Worked the first time...
did you already tried using another custom recovery..like 4ext or TWRP..?

Hi, I have same problem, I tryed install 2 custom rom, but device started only to ClockworkMod Recovery ...
I tryed hard reset - wipe all data, not help
just tried installing TWRP recovery..look in here..
I've been using TWRP2 all along. It works very well on my HTC One and Nexus 7 both. I gave it another try today, but it's still a no-go. I think I've tried most every combination of things now. No matter. I'm giving the nightly CM11 a try now. :fingers-crossed:
Aha! Turns out I had a faulty SD-card. I could write to it and all, but I couldn't delete any files off it. No format worked. Nothing. It couldn't readily be identified, but at least I found the cause and now it's working perfectly. Smooth and fast. Very, very nice. :good: I'm a happy camper.
Hello folks,
My phone is currently rooted, running Android 4.4.2. The bootloader is 1747MVLUFNH2. It is the Telus, i747M variant of the S3.
I am using ClockworkMod Recovery, Version 6.0.4.7 and trying to flash Cyanogenmod 10.2.1 (the latest stable release for this phone).
When I flash the Zip in CWM, the installation aborts and I get a Status 7 error. I have tried earlier releases of CyanogenMod, but they have resulted in the same error. Presumably, this is because my bootloader is not listed among those in the asserts of the ROM.
I have found old threads where folks have noted that, when running bootloaders from the ICS era, you can't flash any Cyanogenmod roms past 10.1. I figured that maybe my bootloader is one of these old ones, but from my research "FNH2" appears to be the newest. In most of the lists featured online, mine doesn't even show up. I understand that reverting your bootloader back to an old one is a huge "no no", and would likely result in my phone being bricked.
I suppose all of this leaves me wondering whether I am caught in some sort of limbo, where my bootloader is in fact too "new" for a relatively old version of Cynanogenmod (10.2.). The phone was recently given to me by my brother, and I am not sure how he updated the bootloader/firmware, but it was likely through Kies.
My end goal is just to have some stable version of Cyanogenmod running, and I've run out of ideas as to how I can make it work. I have tried using Cyanogenmod's "One Click Installer", and that seemed to work well until the phone rebooted to the stock ROM that had been running before; leaving me with effectively no change at all. I have verified root access, and gapps zips seem to extract and install just fine.
Any ideas or pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Why not run the latest cm11 for the d2lte? CM10.2 is only JB.

I've actually tried that, but I still get the Status 7 error, even with a CM-11 nightly.
I flashed back to the stock ROM, with the most current bootloader, etc. It still won't flash any CM zip from CWM, and the Installer doesn't seem to work either. It will install CWM, and say that everything went ok, but when the phone reboots, it's still the stock ROM.
p.s. the CAPTCHAs on this forum are damn near impossible.
"It will install CWM, and say that everything went ok, but when the phone reboots, it's still the stock ROM."
If you're having trouble installing CWM, try this: re-flash CWM or Philz in Odin and do not check anything except r.reset.time, flash recovery, remove the USB cable when you see reset in the status window, remove the battery, replace battery, boot into recovery.
If the latest version of CWM is working properly and you get the status 7 error, try to pull a logcat.

*************************************************************************************
I tried what i could.....i even factory reset it.
pls guide me, what should i do to recover. I still can enter bootloader and recovery...!
Wiping system doesn't hurt. Sounds like your partition is screwy. Flash newest twrp jrior and try and flash ROM again. But cm 7 requires an old recovery. Flash that recovery and flash a newer rom

Follow this steps;
Download CWM 5.8.1.5 from Here
Flash it just the way as you've flashed TWRP. It will basically help you flash All ROMs from Gingerbread to JellyBean and upto Certain KK(4.4.2) builds.
And if you want to flash anything higher then you've to flash Latest TWRP by jrior. Now this is when you want to flash Higher Builds such as KK(4.4.3 n up) and LP(5.0.2 n up).
