[Q] HTC Desire C stuck during boot - HTC Desire C

Hi everyone,
Recently I tried to follow a post from xda dev on putting a new kernel on my HTC Desire C.
Although I followed all the steps I am now unable to get past the boot screen wit the htc logo.
I have tried a number of solutions to make it work but nothing so far, backup recovery failed, changing to another kernel failed.
I think that at this point it might be bricked, and all that I can see is the logo and a disclaimer message.
Does anyone has any idea if I could fix it, and what do I need to do?
Kind regards,
Florin
Edit: thanks to aashay960 for telling me how to fix this.
The solution was to reinstall kernel and rom (since I made a mess of it initially)
Current config : CyanogenMod 10 + N.O.P.E Kernel 875Mhz

Its not bricked. Tell me which kernel you are trying, with which rom? And try flashing a lower frequency kernel.

I tried the Prometheus Kernel for sense linked in your signature with the stock. I got to the HTC logo screen and it got stuck there. It might be that the method I used was wrong.
Would it be possible to use the ones you do? Cyanogem mode and the N.O.P.E Kernel?
Can I install them only with recovery? And is there and "xda approved" method of installing kernels and custom roms?
Thanks,
Florin

Flash a lower frequency Prometheus Sense Kernel from fastboot.
You cannot use nope for sense roms. Nope is for Jellybean roms only.
As of now we have two ways to flash a kernel on this device. One is fastboot, which I personally use. Second is the auto Boot.img flasher that you will find if you search..
For now, tell me what frequency you tried. And try a lower one.

Hi, I forgot to mention in the previous one that I initially used the 816 one, and then switched to the lower one 767.
Is it worth it to try a "clean install" as in a new configuration with a new kernel and rom?

No a wipe is not necessary.
Just make sure you do
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Try an even lower one.
Now that your bootloader is unlocked. Why not try a custom rom?

Yeah that seems to be the most popular rom around. Been using it for a long time..
You can look at other options too. You can't really go wrong with any...
Just make sure to flash nope kernel with a jb rom.

Kernel changing.

A search found me nothing sooo... Can i just push a new kernel? From an already custom kernel. Right now i have intersectravens and my battery life is horrible. I wanna flash to a better kernel but not sure which. Help?
-Thanks
Yes, make sure you replace the proper wifi driver that matches the new kernal so you don't break wifi.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633238
I use this kernel. Do a nandroid first just to be safe and flash the kernel of your choice.
I was thinking about this one 800 OC
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654416
Could i just simply do the install steps?
Yes.
Pushing of the bcm4329.ko is necessary as WiFi support would be broken otherwise. If you don't do it, WiFi will not work.
can someone tell me how to change a kernel to a different one? Some require to load up fastboot and type commands. I dont know how to do that. the one I have I just flashed in recovery

Try rolling back to revolutionary hboot and a GB radio (the one in my sig is good) and see if that makes a difference. Remember to clear the cache after you have flashed them.
This might help getting back to revolutionary http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26909973&postcount=13

Boot LOOP :(

Good day,
I know…I know… it’s September, I’m probably the last one who decide to try ICS on my Bell Raider/Vivid…
And I’m S-OFF (JuopunutBear), WCX, HBOOT- 1.85.2121….and I only get Boot Loop after every ROM I try….
I wipe everything, Data/ Case, Dalvik…everything before each install…
I flash the kernel for each rom before and after with fastboot….
I have tried also other Kernels ….
HTC Logo,.. and after that the animation of the respective ROM….turn OFF and starts over again…
So far I have tried :
-Blitz_2.35.0a
-Dark Raider_v1.5.5.
-HOlICS_1.3_official_en_release
-OTA_HOLIDAY_ICS_35_S_BM_3.38.666.2-1.65.666.3_release_255932wpop8vtj8tts3ou3-1
-Pegasus_2.5.0a
-RaidCity v1.3.0 Plus FinalX ICS Sense 3.6 based on SKT 3.42 for HTC Holiday by ChunD.K – XDA
-Stock HK ICS Sense 3.6 - deodexed rooted zipaligned
-Stock_ATT_ICS
Boot Loop every time…..
If it’s S-OFF (JuopunutBear), WCX, HBOOT- 1.85.2121 can I try RELOCK, and try an RUU Rom ?
Is that even an option ?
Any Advice is really appreciated.:crying:
If you can still get into the recovery then I wouldn't think you would need to run the ruu , but if you can only get into hboot then try to reflash a different recovery if that don't then if that won't work run the ruu to get ya back to a working phone and start over , in order to run the ruu you will need to relock the bootloader , I suggest using the toolkit it makes life much easier.

Just seen you knew to relock sorry I just miss read .
No...
Don't RUU
Flash faux's kernel on the stock rom and try to boot...
Then flash what you want

If you dont have the official ics installed first, you cant install custom versions of ics.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1612685 this should help if you were still on GB when you tried flashing those roms

Thats for devices returning to s-on and he isnt bricked, just bootlooping because it sounds like he is on gingerbread when he says "I’m probably the last one who decide to try ICS on my Bell Raider/Vivid…"
Note: This will fix only devices which were bricked by turning S ON. And bricks caused by a damaged hboot via interrupted OTA update/RUU flash on a S-ON device. Any devices bricked with other ways are currently *not* supported. We are working on it

I need my phone at work this week…so I guess I will stick with this ROM for now…

Cool deal.
Maybe get that tool kit to lock and unlock incase it happens next time ,
and maybe try a different recovery just to see if it will flash better for ya seems like these phones vary a little what may work best for some may not for others I've found .
Ok I very recently had the exact same phone to work on for a friend and had the same thing happen to me. I got it figured out too so here's what I did..and what I'd been missing all along.
Unlock ur bootloader at htcdev.com and if you haven't yet s-off'd your phone head over to unlimited.io and follow the guide for the raider.
Next install a custom recovery, and then the rom:
Use the dark raider installer for this. I use wcxrecovery but any should work..cwm, twrp..I've tried them all..
Install the rom, full wipe, choose your preferred setup, and when you get to kernel choices, install the stock one. It's an unsecured boot image, which I learned is necessary to flash before u can flash other kernels...it should be that simple. Then you let the phone boot once, wait for it to load, reboot to recovery and reflash your Rom of choice. I just reflashed dark raider and used the default kernel and set max CPU all the way up..lol..much faster. I like the desensed version the best so far.
Let me know if u get it.. flash that stock kernel first. Then reboot load up and flash a custom rom entirely. Make sure you're s-off tho. It really makes it simpler to flash roms.

Flash Rom
Flash kernel (via recovery)

My advice would.be to restore it to stock and try to sell it for a newer phone or atleast one with more of a developer backing. I rarely see any kind of action here Rom-wise.

I am having difficulty myself finding a rom that actually works with this phone. So far, I have had to settle with Untouched ROM, and I have flashed an overclocked RAM kernel. Had some force closes for a while, but grabbed a tweaker and lowered the RAM speed, so I'm good now. My advice is to stick with what is stable first, and then add apks and tweaks and other customizations to bring it to where you would like it.
First, can you state your recovery, is it stock or custom (like ClockworkMod).
This Explos!on ROM... are you sure this is compatible with the Desire C?
I would suggest Nameless Rom [LINK] but since you hate Sense so much :crying: I would consider CyanogenMod [Link], google it for more info.
I would flash CWM if you don't have it yet if I were you, g'luck mate :good:

Im using cwm recovery yes, but i cant even find an oc kernel or whatever it, everytime i flash a new boot.img i just bootloop..
Ok, to clarify.
It does not matter if you use nameless rom and hate sense, you can remove sense using nikhils customiser
There is no cyanogenmod for our phone yet
you dont seem to really get ROMing, Majellico, explosion rom was built for desire c and works with no other phone
because every rom has to be built for a phone specifically.
Now for flashing explosion (though i recommend nameless)
First, you do a full system wipe in the recovery
then you delete cache and dalvik cache
choose "apply zip from sdcard"
choose the rom .zip-file
it should now flash.
now for flashing the boot.img,
boot into bootloader, choose fastboot and connect your usb cable
go to the folder where you have extracted boot.img of your choice (you will have to see if the 767OC or 806OC work, if it doesnt just repeat these steps with the other bootimg.)
hold shift and right-click, choose "open commandprompt here" or something like that (my pc is configured in dutch i dont know what that options called in english)
type: "fastboot flash boot boot.img", without the quotation marks
now reboot your phone

Sorry for the misunderstanding for the Explosion ROM, I heard of it only in this forum and am researching it. There is actually a CyanogenMod for the Desire C (just very buggy, no WiFi so useless), thank you for that other information as well.

[Q] Flashing a Custom Kernel

Hi guys.
I'm attempting to flash the ElementalX-m7-5.2 on my phone which is currently running ARHD 21.0 Sense 5. My base is 3.17.xxx therefore I think everything should be fine. I just wondering what my Kernel version should read after I finish flashing it. From what I can see, it kernel hasn't been successfully flashed. Are there any prerequisites that I have to fulfill before flashing a custom rom?
Cheers.

Why not?
What's the error? You get it in recovery when you flashed?
Or are you talking about what you can see into settings?

What's the error? You get it in recovery when you flashed?
Or are you talking about what you can see into settings?

Well it's beyond me really. Well, I have to get into recovery to flash it, so yeah.
Flashing seems to work as there is no error. I restart it twice, just as it requires. I go into my system info to check my kernel version, but nothing seems to have changed. Note, I've attempted to flash this twice now. Maybe, I'll just have to keep trying.

ElementalX is "[email protected]" under kernel. If it shows that, then you're good.
