I installed this ROM and rebooted and my screen doesnt advance pass the blue android splash screen
now i tried gingerbread and it made it through the splash but i got a message saying something about setup not working and forcing closed. then i went back to recovery and installed the gapps and it gets stuck on the splash screen
Are you using firerat mod? Also make sure to do a full data/ system, cache, and dalvik cache wipe. I usually do all three at least twice as I've had roms hang from leftover data. Also check to make sure files are downloading completely.

What recovery are you using??
Yea it's me again. With the
Modified Hero
im using clockwork recovery 3.0.0.5
i finally got gingerbread to work. i think my problem was with doing a complete wipe of the cache.
i want to try the froyo mod but dont want to end up back where i was of hanging on the splash screen.
do i need to delete the one click root file? heroroot010.apk?
Yes you should and just do a nand back up of your working rom and you should be good to try any different rom. Then if you want to go back just nand restore back to your old rom. And if you were able to get gb to work froyo shouldn't be a problem for you.
Yea it's me again. With the

You also wanna ditch that customized recovery image. Use the recovery that comes with rom manager. That new one is missing some capabilities.

I second that! Hated that recovery both days I had it. lol
That's not the new one. The heroroot apk. installs the old darchstar recovery img. The newest one is RA1.7 and it has all the features. Good luck
Yea it's me again. With the

thanks guys
where can i find R.A. 1.7
Clockwork recovery 2.5.0.7 works great. And that's what rom manager will flash for you. Since you likely have rom manager already, you should go with that. Most people post instructions with clockwork in mind, so it will be easier in the long term.

Like what? Besides doing away with amend scripts (which is due to CWM 3.x being based on the official GB recovery), it's the same.
That's basically it. But it causes extra work. And the original clockwork recovery works fine.
So if the OP wants stuff to work every time...

when i opened rom manager and choose the rom i wanted to install it asked if i wanted to wipe and backup or something but i know i check both. then i install the zip in the recovery boot menu and rebooted and no luck. then i tried another rom and wiped before installing and still no luck.
At the very top of rom manager, you must flash 2.5.0.1 recovery. Did you do this first?

So you flashed the clockworkmod recovery, booted into recovery and made a nandroid of your stock rom. Then, what rom were trying to flash?

This exact same thing happened to me. What I did to fix it was pull the battery, then wipe everything (dalvik, data, cache), and then rebooted. My phone was able to boot then.
I'm having the same problem with rom manager. I just rooted my desire using the unrevoked method, then ran rom manager. I did install the recovery mode first, then backed up the rom. How my desire is just rebooting to the htc screen. How do I get out of this?
Many thanks,
Joe
dumb question, but how did you wipe everything?

Hey, that's exactly the same issuing I'm experiencing now. Did you solve it? And if yes, how?
Well, a few hours later I solved it by restoring a backup and then booting went well. Also described in a thread on androidforums dot com (I can't enter the link here due to not having posted enough messages) .

I don't know if this helps, but I'm pretty sure nandroids are specific to which recovery they were created with, I read that somewhere a few days ago. If you did not have clockwork before, I would try getting the recovery you used to make the nand, install that recovery and then restore the nand. Then try the whole wipe everything and get clockwork and go to town. If you haven't tried RA/Darch 1.7 recovery, I would recommend it, I personally like it better than clockwork, it seems faster, and simpler to use.
Exactly What "Il Duce" Said Will Fix Your Problem, Same Exact Thing Happened To Me, What I Did Was Go Back To Previous Version Of Rom Manager Then Flash Alternate Recovery, AND Regular Clockwork Recovery, Should Be Good After That!

When I try to install any sense 2.1 roms they all get stuck at the white htc boot screen. The only rom it hasn't happened on is Sensible Gingerbread 5/14. Any idea why this keeps happening?

Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
I'm on 4.0.0.5. I wipe everything then flash it like any other rom.
You wipe everything? system, data, cache?
Does the rom have an overclocked kernel? Maybe your phone won't boot at what the kernel tries.
I wipe everything twice. The rom is Sensible salsa RC2.5.3.

I suppose I could look it up, but it would be more useful for you to find out what clock speed it boots at.

Try Redownloading the Rom you want, Sometimes the Downloads Mess up! Also try this...
Wipe Everything Twice (Again) then Flash your Rom, Next (Before) you Boot your phone, Wipe Everything Once More then Boot! And if your using the Firerats Partition Don't Forget to Flash the Boot.zip also Before you Boot the phone!
Good Luck!

The kernel in those roms see to all be capped at 691. I know they were using Deca's #589 capped. I flash a different kernel, so I haven't looked, but WildHeroc was capped.

Back up you rom on clockwork mod recovery or RA recovery ...then wipe all...and flash away

Yes.

CM7.1 is 2.3.7. If you're using Amon Ra there is no option to wipe system partition.
You can use temasek's format-signed.zip to do a clean wipe of the phone.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk
If you are coming from a previous CM7 based version, you *shouldn't* need to wipe the phone. It *should* upgrade cleanly. That being said, nothing works as it should every time, so make sure you make a nandroid backup within recovery, just in case things go wrong.
Right this backing up thing people do is usually through something you can access in your recovery called NANDROID. It shouldn't be necessary in this case but its always worth doing (just in case!). Oddly I'm running stock recovery right now so I can't give better instructions but have a quick look for something saying back-up or nandroid (or both i guess), can't remember how its written. Its a fairly simple process and then if you want you could wipe your phone before updating CM but once again you don't have to.
Hope that helps!
With the new boot loader unlock it comes time to use a recovery other than safe strap. The easiest way to flash a custom recovery, in this case, clockwordmod recovery, is to simply download ROM Manager and use it to flash the Motorola Photon Q version of CWM Recovery. I flashed it and booted into it and haven't experienced any problems as of yet so for those looking for a custom recovery straight out of the gate, this is for you.

Did you try to go back into CWM and wipe everything again after the boot loops? That sometimes helps when it is boot looping after an install.

So what was your full procedure? I want to try this and try to install CM10 later.
From what I read, you installed the Photon Q CWM, installed Pizza through that, got boot loops, flashed back to stock, then installed Pizza again?

Fastboot was kicking errors and was boot looping into fastboot with firmware flash fail, I found however I could start into AOSPizza in DB mode (Safe Mode) , so I did that, charged up the phone 100% then used RSDLite and Reflashed Stock current firmware, it however does not re-lock the bootloader as some have mentioned might be the case in other post's, from there I started up the phone,turned on usb debug, used "motochopper" to root it, then installed Rom Manager from the market, flashed clockwork to device with the Photo Q CWM , copied AOSPixxaV1.zip ( The ROM ) and GappizzaV1.zip to the Phones internal storage not on the external SD memory card, from there went to clockwork mod on my atrix opened up the program and selected to reboot into recovery, went to the mounts and storage then select Mount System then go back then install zip from sd card then choose zip from sd card, then scroll to your rom and select it and it will flash when its complete you will go back and go to reboot system now, it will ask you if you want to bypass stock recovery on boot select it and your phone will reboot into AOSPizza......Have Fun!
