So yeah, my sxl is rooted and has recovery, but it won't start up. I think it means that there is no ROM installed? Correct me if I'm wrong. The main problem I have is that I can't mount my sdcard in recovery and therefore it won't let me install any roms. I learned from other forums that this might have something to do with ICS, if so, I thought that I should downgrade my Hboot but I can't find a method that works for me as all requires usb debugging? Which I cant access as I cant turn on the device...
Is there a way of solving my problem? If it has something to do with RUU, my CID is HTC_y13 and everytime I've tried installing a stock RUU i've only got problems during install (yes i have relocked bootloader). I have searched for this all over the internet but can't find a solution. Please help!
Thanks in advance!
BTW, i'm a newbee at these sort of things so keep that in mind
I had the same issue when I tried updating my hboot from 1.26 to 1.28
I basically had to follow the hboot process again and go back to the original hboot if you scroll through the android development thread you will find the musketeer rom with sense 4.0 go to the main page and i think its post 3 or 4 and you will see a process on how to change the hboot
read this step by step to go back to the original CWM and you will find after you upload the hboot back to original you will be able to go back into the recovery and you will see all your flashed roms again
hope this helps

Basically I used a couple of things to get it back to cwm for hboot 1.26
i will see what I can attach when I get into the office for you
out of interest did your phone come with the 1.28 hboot? or did you try and upgrade it? cause if it came with it im not sure the way im going to show is the right way.

Completely sure. Now it says 1.25.0004 and S-OFF after that downgrading to hboot thing, but I havn't been successfull in installing a stock rom yet, so I guess that those numbers are fake at the moment? I've tried installing a recovery for 1.25 but that doesn't work, however the ones for 1.28 work. So I think that i'm still on 1.28 (untill I've managed to install stock rom).
Have you upgraded your Hboot or did you get the OTA update (as I did)?
SOLVED!
I managed to find a working rom and have successfully reseted my phone to Hboot 1.25 instead of 1.28.
THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP, I REALLY APPRECIATE IT!

I found a working stock HTC rom (I don't remember which one) that was compatible with my device. After the installation, my Hboot was 1.25 instead of 1.28 which allowed me to install another custom rom onto the phone via recovery (It didn't allow me with Hboot 1.28). So after that I simply installed another custom rom through recovery and since then the phone has been working great
To sum up, you need to find a working stock rom compatible to your device, which is very difficult... But just keep searching you will find it eventually
Hope this was of any help, ask if you have any more questions!

Hi all,
Anybody has an idea why flashing this version on Incredible S does not work and shows a message "assert failed" (in the beginning - like it`s checking if the device is exactly what it has to be but it fails).
the MD5 of the image is okay.
Any ideas?

Which custom recovery do you have installed and are trying to flash with? You might want to try this one that was mentioned on the OP of The Virtuous thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1104765
Absolutely the same one.
Now I just tried Vituous Unity 2.33.0 Beta - and had the same problem again.
It looks to me like it tries to recognize the device as a different one.
Are there any links to older versions which have different ROMs for each device?

Do you know which model of the IncS you have? There is the S710A which is the North American version for Canada/USA and the S710E which has 3G bands for the rest of the world. Since you are now S-Off and have a custom recovery installed, it shouldn't make a difference, but there is definitely something amiss since you are having issues with multiple Roms.
Have you tried downloading the rom zip files directly to your phone's SD card?
The Virtous ROM refers to the Incredeible S as Incs rather than vivo (which is it's proper name). You need to edit the update-script and folder names to give it the right name

Yes - just to confirm that this is the solution.
Same issue. Some clarification needed.
I am a newbie to this fascinating would of rooting and am a proud owner of HTC Incredible S. I rooted the phone and installed the ROM Manager. These are the issues I faced :-
1) I could not find Virtuous Unity for download there.
2) When I downloaded the Virtuous Unity 1.31.0.zip from the website, copied it to my SD Card and tried to install it.. It installed the HTC Sense 2.1 instead of Sense 3.0!
Could someone please guide me as to how to change the update-scripts and which folders to rename so that I can install Virtuous Unity 1.31.0? I would be really grateful...
Probably you didn`t do a full wipe before installing the Virtuous Unity rom.
Try resetting to factory details - that might work for you.

You should be able to just use 4Ext to flash. Be sure backup and do a full wipe before you flash.
Can you tell me why this ROM does not work in the audio equalizer?
Thanks for the replies and sorry for my bad English
If you mean srs that doesn't work in the default music app. You have to use an app like poweramp to use srs.

1) there is no ICS kernel sources availible yet, so the current kernels are a mix of ICS & GB. Thats why things dont work.
Did you try manually inputing the APN?
2) please post ALL questions in Q&A. The development forum is for developers to release there work nothing else.

This data problem seems to be region specific and while we can't flash radios or ruu from different regions this will remain a problem. An eu radio and ril.dll would bring data to you but just not possible without s-off. See some of us here have donated blindly for s-off which may never happen. I live in hope it does. Hopefully we can start using new base Danny posted to build roms so fastboot boot.img might bring some joy.

to flash radio, hboot etc. you need make s-off your phone. Flash unprotected hboot from unlimited.io and than flash new radio.
It can be as simple problem, look at insanyly cool sense install instruction and flash a rom that way if you dont wipe dalwik and cache data will fail. I have had same problem

Alright guys so I am wondering if its possible to go back to GB stock rom from google because I no longer have the image.
I currently have the AT&T frequency of the phone and i did flash to MIUI first before using blackrose (which I have no uninstalled). I don't believe I did anything else to it.
Is there a stock rom available anywhere for download?
Restore.
Shipped-ROMs.com has all stock ROMs from Google.
What are the stock settings for Hboot and radio for the Nexus one?
Is it best to use froyo and go then update to gingerbread or just start back with gingerbread?
All can be found somewhere over here.
you can restore to stock 2.3.6 by following this thread.

Hey Guys
First of all, i want to say, you do great work with your roms, i love them
My question is, that after flashing to stock ruu, to official ics update, and then to total senseless v2 with hboot 1.28 and cwm version with touch, the wifi does not work.
It says activating wifi, but nothing happens
i hope you can help me, and i aplogize if this question has already been posted somewhere, i have searched for it, but has not been able to find anything useful
with regards
Thomas
I also have the exact same problem? Did you find any solution?
Did you try to flash this ROM over GB?
My phone has this crappy wifi issue with stock ICS too
both of you, try flashing the kernel that i have posted in my MIUI rom, in first topic, vertigo kernel, you just need to be s-off before you do it
Thanks, I downloaded the kernel and flashed it with CMW but the WIFI still doesn't work.
It just says on and doesn't even scan for networks (even manually)
Here is detailed software information of my handset:
ROM: ICSense 3.0
Kernel: vertigo 3.0.16
HBOOT: 1.28 S-OFF
The course which i took to reach here:
Stock GB -> OTA Stock ICS -> Factory Reset ICS -> S-OFF -> Flashed ICSense -> Flashed Vertigo
WIFI was only functional at the very first step. It didn't function even with the Official ICS!
PLEASE HELP ME I'M VERY DESPERATE NOW!
try another rom, you can try my MIUI rom, i know wifi works in that
Ok
Thanks again
Do you have any idea why official ROM doesn't work?
it should work if you did it that way you said. if wifi not working when using another rom, then try to take it from start point with RUU, find a guide to do that on the internet and then check if it works stock if it does , then great, if it not working then BAD
As I said it just works on Stock GB not Stock ICS!

I bought myself another m7 for 150 euro & installed insertcoin sense 7 latest rom. ( tried viperrom also, same thing)
Games run extremely laggy (FPS drops-like)
Hearthstone doesn't run smooth etc

Imo the M7 was definitively faster on Kitkat than lollipop but make sure you are not in battery saver mode. Might also worth a try to turn on performance mode in the developer menu. You might also want to try a GPE lollipop rom instead of a Sense lollipop rom. GPE is smoother than Sense on lollipop.
Oh i've never thought about performance mode.
I'm 100% sure i've never enabled battery saver mode tho.
Can you point me a fast 4.4.4 rom ? or a good working GPE one?

Well if you have s-off you can convert to GPE using the GPE ruu, otherwise you can flash the stock 5.1 GPE rom using a custom recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/development/rom-google-play-edition-lollipop-v1-00-t2963927
Or you can try an old 4.4.3 ARHD or MximusHD rom. (there is no 4.4.4 Sense roms)
I'll try hearthstone on my GPE 5.1 for you, will post back in a few mins
Allright i'll wait on your findings then, if it works i'll just go straight to GPE 5.1
I haven't done this S-off thing in ages, dunno how anymore haha
