Hello everyone, I am new to this forum but have been rooting androids for years now. I have an issue now that I have never seen before. I have my HTC One rooted, S-OFF, firmware updated, everything as it should be. Heres the problem. Whenever I try to install a rom, (Insert coin, Renovate, etc.) the install goes totally fine. However, whenever I go to reboot into the system, it just hangs at the first splashscreen. The one with the green HTC logo and the powered by android at the bottom. It has sat for 5 minutes before I decided to turn it off. Anyone know a fix to this? thanks,
Parker.
PS. All of these are Aroma install roms, if that matters.
Have you tried flashing a regular Ron without AROMA, like the stock Rooted rom?
Based on the touchscreen issues with AROMA and thus phone, are you certain that you are flashing the correct carrier?

I've run into this on the 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 ROMs on my S-On HK edition. When the screen does go out after several minutes, I hit the power button and the phone works normally. I'm guessing that it has to do with old firmware being used with the 4.4.3+ ROM bases. I'm going to do Sunshine S-Off today so I can update my firmware and see if that makes a difference.
I have not tried a non aroma rom, that might just be my next step. I know for a fact it is the correct carrier rom, all the ones I have flashed are universal
I will try to do the power button thing you mentioned, thanks for the tip.
After work I will try all of these!

Just got S-Off and upgraded the firmware to the latest. The problem has been solved for me. Boots right up now.
Which firmware did you upgrade to? I tried to upgrade to 2.22xxx and it didn't fix anything for me.

Hello everyone,
Yesterday I decided to flash an updated ROM of 4.3 to my One. After flashing it (happens with new ROM, or after flashing a new custom kernel... logo2menu, you know), a message appears ALWAYS on-screen:
com.phone.android has stopped working
This message repeats a hundred times. I can't type anything without the message popping up. I reached the launcher, but I have no Phone signal and the WiFi is not working. It's like the phone wants to wake up the Phone Antenna but it crashes to do it.
I've read that I had to flash the boot.img from the ROM I wish to flash, and I don't know if that causes the problem...
Any help would be perfect.
Thank you in advance.
=====================================================================================
SOLVED!
Well, after my vacation, took my One and did a bit of research. I know everything about this problem now.
The problem is only in GE ROMS. Why? 4.3 GE hasn't listed my MVNO yet (known error by Android and by 'Pepephone'). So, as soon the mobile goes on, Android tries to connect to the SIM, but as it's not listed amongst the companies, the phone crashes. I had to flash a file with the APN, then add it manually. Ta-Da! It works.
Attached the ZIP file to flash in Recovery.
- Install 4.3 GE Rom.
- Flash the Fix.
- Start and complete the Install Wizard.
- Inside the APN config, manually introduce Pepephone's APN
o NAME: Pepephone
o APN: gprsmov.pepephone.com
o MCC: 214
o MNC: 06
Sorry to bump the thread, but currently I have a HTC One with no phone and it's really important for me to solve this asap. I'm going on vacation tomorrow and I need my phone

Are you using a custom kernel that matches, exactly, the 4.3 custom rom you are using? If it is a GE 4.3 based rom, you need a GE 4.3 custom kernel (check out ElementalX). If it is a Sense 4.3 base rom, well that update just came out yesterday and there are no custom kernels for it yet.

It happens with EVERY 4.3 GE Rom, stock kernel. I was in 4.2.2 GE (Android Revolution) and Installed 4.3 and gave me that error all the time without upgrading the Kernel... I'm pretty lost.

It sounds like there is an incompatibility with the new base. I would reflash the rom, doing a full wipe in the process

Full wipe means to wipe/factory reset in ClockWork Recovery before flashing? I already did that like dozen times, but still, same error I don't know why I'm the only one with this problem...

The Roms I've used have an option for full wipe during the install in Aroma, but I guess doing it in CWM does the same thing. Are you theming the phone app by any chance? Something isn't playing nice with the 4.3 base, that's what you have to track down. Maybe go back to 4.2 while you sort it out

Yup, did it inside the installer and outside it, but always same result. I'm back now into 4.2.2 Sense AR Rom and the phone works great, but I hate Sense.
Could it be the baseband firmware?

Firmware could be the case, was just thinking that.
My advice tho, you have a working phone, and with your vacation tomorrow, I would leave it as is for now

Sounds good, you're welcome. Enjoy your vacation!
I have the exact same problem. I've literally tried everything. I have S-Off-ed my phone and installed a custom kernel but even that does not fix the problem. All custom 4.3 Google Edition Roms crash after I install them. It works fine if I use the Stock 4.3 ROM.

A little update. I've got Cyanogen 10.2 working perfectly in my phone. It's running 4.3, so now, I understand even less. Why CM works and the other ROMs doesn't?
The night is long... Hahah.
CM 10.2 works flawlessly "without" bugs. I don't understand why CM 10.2 (JB 4.3) works and the other 4.3 GE does not. Something is not right, or maybe I'm missing some step, but it's really strange...

If you simply need a working phone, return to stock for your vacation, and then start from scratch re-flashing the GE firmware, kernels and rom. If anything is sense on the phone, incompatibility issues will happen.

Finally found a solution to the crash. It was related to a weird combination between GE 4.3 and my mobile network operator, Pepephone. Known bug by Android and Pepephone.
Solution at the first post.
To start off, I'll write down a history of my phone's problem. It had me scratching my head for over 1 week already and I still can't resolve it. I've been non-stop searching all over the net for solutions, and unfortunately it's still problematic.
Before the problems started, this is the state of my phone:
Stock HTC Rom 4.1.2 ver. 1.29.1540.3, rooted, custom recovery TWRP.
My phone initially hanged after receiving a text message. So I thought it just crashed and just needs a simple reboot. But unfortunately, after a reboot, it was just stuck at the "HTC quietly brilliant" splashscreen. But it could go into bootloader. So I went into recovery to restore from a backup point. But the restoring process failed, and worse, it wiped my current OS off.
So I went over the net to search for a copy of the stock HTC rom. then I found the specific RUU, from bugsylawson's, for my phone. And, at last I thought, the phone was back to normal. But unfortunately again, when I tried to re-download all my apps from google play store, after installing a few apps, my phone crashed again. the crash would reboot and enter into the OS but after a few seconds, it would hang again and reboot until it doesn't get into the OS anymore.
I went further research and studying about android terminologies to better understand the state and problem of my phone, and I came up with the idea to try to install a famous and stable custom Rom. I chose Android Revolution HD 13.3, which runs a custom 4.2.2 jelly bean. After successfully flashing the rom, I was so happy that everything went back to normalcy. So again I tried to reinstall the apps from play store. and everything worked fine. then after about approx. 18hrs, the problems started to show up again. My phone would hang while I was using it. And it would restart. sometimes it would just force close an app that i was using (in this case, I was using the "Internet" app and camera app). And after rebooting by itself a couple more times, it would get stuck in the "HTC quietly brilliant" splashscreen. again.
I tried several times to re-flash the custom Rom, and it would flash successfully everytime. And just to make sure i did the correct steps before flashing a new rom, I would like to enumerate what I did:
-wiped data, system, cache and dalvik cache partitions
-flashed custom rom via TWRP.
After everything I've tried. I'm starting to wonder if my phone has factory defects. I'm pointing to three parts of the hardware: processor, flash drive or cache. I'm wondering if the cache is a hardware or software based, and if it is a hardware, could it possibly be damaged physically and can't be repaired? How do I checkdisk the flash drive to make sure that i don't have bad sectors in it? How could i also try a diagnostic test of the processor to make sure that it is not faulty and does not overheat?
I'm new to android debugging. I would gladly take any logical solutions to help solve my problem. I'm pinning my hope on this forum before I finally contact HTC to claim a warranty or anything.
Hi can you download TeamViewer so that I can flash the latest 4.3 firmware on your device, after S-Offing

Hi Matt,
First of all, thanks for the very quick reply.
Uhn matt, I don't mean to annoy you with questions. But are there any other solutions without S-offing my device? And if possible and if it's not a hassle for you, may I ask what your possible might be? (Could you please enumerate it?)
I would greatly appreciate it if we could discuss the procedures first before actually trying to fix the issue.
You'll need to S-Off to flash the 4.3 firmware, and you want to be S-Off now as you can't use the exploit on the newer hboots. I will S-Off, flash 4.2.2 firmware, flash 4.3 firmware, then flash 4.3 Sense stock rom, then you can s-on if you want

I see. How is the new Hboot different from the old hboot? And if anything goes wrong, could I still go back to the old hboot?
To what firmware version is it going to be upgraded to? Will it have the same radio?
Just to clarify, we're CHANGING firmware version, not UPGRADING right? Is it because we're changing to different region's firmware so that i could just download an OTA update of newer stock roms? Correct me if I'm wrong.
Good afternoon all,
I have an HTC One PN072. I've flashed the phone from Sprint to Cricket. They were very adamant about me not "resetting" the phone as it will remove the information, or flash they've added.
I've done several searches and can't seem to find a thread indicating 1) if this is possible and 2) a guide to doing so. The phone already is rooted and has TWRP on it as well.
If anyone knows of a thread I would love a link to a guide.

I have a Sprint One fully flashed to Verizon and I flash custom ROMs all the time without any problems. I have never lost any settings and I don't even have to re-activate my phone. I would think that as long as you dont use Bootloader to flash a complete RUU image you should be fine. Goin s-off if your not already might cause issues here as well. (If someone knows for sure please correct me) I would say just download a ROM and install it with TWRP. I have updated firmware as well with no issues as well, however the firmware I upgraded with did not contain a radio update, which I am hesitant to do since I imagine that will effect my flash. I did my flash myself but it seems like a headache re-doing it.

Not that I have ever experienced. That was true on my EVO LTE and has so far been true on my One. I have the newest TWRP and in the past two days I have flashed EclipticOne, Elegencia and Insert Coin. On my old Droids Clockwork recoveries reset worked fine as well. DONT do a factory reset from inside the ROM. I have not tried it on my One, but on my EVO and my Droid 1/2/3 phones that would undo parts of a flash and I would have to reactivate. If I were you I would just work within my current firmware and flash what was available.
It is possible for you to flash your phone back to Cricket for free but its requires a lot of setup and can be a real pain in the ass. Getting 3G on Verizon was particularly painful and I have many screen shots and pages of notes on the actual procedure. When I upgraded from my EVO to the One I managed to get it right the first time by following my notes but it was still a serious hassle.

i was thinking about getting my one flashed to verizon but how does it work?? say i get my phone flashed.. is it verizon pre paid?? does that come with unlimited data?? text & talk?? how much would my bill be a month? sorry for all the questions
I apologize, so just to be as clear as possible, if you follow all of the wipes that roms usually ask you to perform in TWRP then you should be fine? However, do not perform a factory reset in the rom itself once loaded?
Doing a wipe through TWRP's wipe feature is fine as long as you dont go into 'Advanced' and mess with settings. Do not do the factory reset within the ROM once the ROM is loaded. If, while installing a ROM, the installer wants to do a wipe, that is fine as well.
I have just recently restarted using this phone due to my uscellular S4 getting turned off. I am now back on my LG-P990 currently rooted and running CM10.1. BUT most importantly to me is the fact that I have all my wonderful apps on my s4, I want to be able to use them by using the LG phone as a tether and calls not much else BUT CM10.1 tethering does not work, so i find myself flashing rom after rom, avatar rom, older CM mods, none would turn on tethering, so i flashed a modded version of MIUI for this phone and it worked except for ONE thing no signal, tethering turned on just fine so i decided to look around for other roms and found Slimrom TRYED to flash it didnt work, try to flash actual MIUI roms off there site, didnt work, met with an error in CWM Recovery after some searching I found its because Im running the OLD Bootloader -_- THIS is the issue im having IF MIUI does NOT work is it possible to downgrade the bootloader again so i can restore my CM10.1 backup? I have been working at this for a week, if there is something here about this can someone please just point me at it? I would appreciate any help.
On a side note i DID soft brick the phone the other day and found a program called nvflash witch flashed an install of CM mod. Dont know if that will help any.

I really do not understand how other ROMs deny Tethering. Did you flash the latest 2.x kernel by pengus77 after installing the rom? Did you make a clean install(wipe everything then install)? On the other hand, yes you can switch bootloaders as much as you like, just remember that changing the bootloader wipes everything on your internal memory, so do a backup. Did you try just plain old stock 4.0.4? Should work there. Ask anything you want, if you're still having questions.

As to the flashing to stock i lost the original rom backup i had made along time ago and cant find the original firmware anywhere online. When I flashed CM 10.1 I just ran with it, when i go to try tethering it says "Turning on portable wifi hotspot." and it stays on that no matter what untill i restart, left the phone running for 2 days once and that was still stuck on that before i restarted. As for flashing a 2.x kernel i had no idea about that. But yes when i did the installs i would do a clean wipe and install. Most of what i read online led me to believe that there was an error with CM 10.1 nightlys that was not being fixed for the tethering. So that is why i decided to go to another rom. Two questions one how do i go about finding the original firmware for this phone and two how would i go about updating or downgrading the bootloaders and could i be pointed to the files please?

Okay, This is SFSP by @sgspluss which is a pretty fast, stable and battery-friendly slimmed down version of stock ICS. It is available for both Old and NewBL, so you might want to try that first. This is AIO Toolkit. I know that you've used it and bricked your phone, but try again, and for the love of God install the nvflash drivers because most people skip that part. You have to do it manually and if you're running Windows 8 you need to disable Driver Signature Verification. But yeah, you switch bootloaders with this.
Hi,
I took the plunge and rooted + flashed my phone last week after finding that the CM13 ROM is supposed to support a G800H dual sim. Unfortunately CM13 doesn't find either of my SIM cards.
So I spent a long time reflashing other custom ROMs to see if I could get one to work. I finally managed to find the CM12.1 ROM which finds my SIM cards but the recent and back button isn't functioning and when I try to uninstall an app the phone reboots and the app remains.
Can anyone help me get one of these ROMs to work properly?
Alternatively, my wife has exactly the same phone as me (unrooted and running everything as the it was out of the box), is there a way I can clone her device to mine then factory reset it?
Thanks in advance.
Flash the first Russian Lollipop twice. Yes, it's weird but if you downgrade sometimes you need to flash it twice to fully downgrade, then flash CM. If you still can't get SIMs to work on stock Lollipop, downgrade to KitKat then use OTA to go to Lollipop.
About cloning, to do a full clone you need to use TWRP as far as I know.

Thank you for your reply my friend.
I have resorted to using Samsung Smart Switch and re initialised my phone back to stock. I think I am out of my depth as I don't even understand your reply lol!

Sorry, I will try to explain. You've used Odin to root, right? You have to use Odin to flash any stock ROM that is not to the same country as your original ROM (different CSC code). All Marshmallow ROMs are based on the first Russian Lollipop ROM released by Samsung, that's why if you flash them over other ROMs you have problems like no SIM.
Ahhh I think that might be the problem! (Yes I used Odin.)
In the instructions it clearly says "1. Make sure you have updated to stock 5.1.1" - I didn't do that - what an idiot.
I take it when you say "flash any stock ROM" I need to get a 5.1.1 stock ROM - where would I get one of those from?
EDIT: would this be suitable? http://www.youmobile.org/blogs/entr...-Android-5-1-1-Lollipop-update-is-Rolling-out
Thanks for your persistence.

To avoid issues, if you want to run any my CM13 (Marshmallow) ROM, you need to flash through Odin the first 5.1.1 Russian version, for what I said before. The common and easiest place, although slow, is from SamMobile website:

@Ifom Thanks very much I will start the download when I get back from work and install it when it finishes (some time next week).
Thanks again.
