Hey guys,
Lately my phone was beginning to slow down a bit and my storage was nearly full so earlier today I decided to factory reset my phone and reflash Android Revolution HD 71.1 (prior to the factory reset I was running the same ROM, along with the latest (I think) ElementalX kernel). ARHD installed fine but when I went to reflash the same kernel I found that each time I tried, the phone would turn off as it started installing (after I selected all my overclocking preferences etc). The majority of the preferences were set to default so no overclocking or overvolting, and as far as I can remember, the rest of the preferences were the same as I had set prior to today. Before trying to flash the kernel each time, I wiped the cache/dalvik cache and tried installing the kernel .zip from within TWRP with no luck. Is there anything obvious that I'm missing?
Cheers

Have you followed these instructions from the OP?
1. Install zip from recovery
2. Follow the instructions, if you don't know what to do, use the preselected options
3. Reboot
For installation, it seems a lot of people have finicky phones when it comes to flashing stuff with aroma.
If the installer gets stuck at 0% then you need to reboot to bootloader and do fastboot erase cache
If the installer reboots at 10%, you need to do a nandroid backup of /system partition and restore it. I think a dirty flash would also work.
After you install it, if you get a black screen or stuck at the HTC logo, no need to worry. Just hold down the power button untill the capacitive buttons start flashing and the phone restarts. The kernel installed correctly.

I downloaded and installed Rodriguezstyle MiUi rom yesterday, following all the install procedures(the double wipes and what not). But when I go to use it, it sometimes worked and it sometimes would crash and reboot. It was very weird because instead of just rebooting to the os, it would give the Nexus X then, after going no further, reboot again giving the Nexus X and reboot again and so on. This happened with every MiUi rom I installed, but not with the Evil Desire rom I have now. I really like MiUi, do you guys have any fix?
Specs - Nexus One w/ 5.12 Korean Radio
Trying Rods 1.6.6
Have you overclocked it with setcpu? You might want to turn that off and see what happens. I assume you did a complete wipe first btw?
I did wipe and my rom crashes before I can install setcpu

I tried all three of those and on every one my phone gets stuck in the boot loop. I have tried everything, factory wiping, cache wiping, dalvik wiping, battery wiping, and clear storage. is there any way I can completely delete the operating system off my phone so I can freshly install the new rom of MiUi. This is bootloop also happens to me when I flash micromod and cyanogen. THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING! does anyone have the same problem too
this static X bootloop also happened a lot on KoR. its based on CM6.0 but maybe this solution will also fix your problem:

@pseudoheld
You are the freaken man, however, is this a permanent fix or only temporary?
I spoke too soon, when I do HBoot in the boot loader, sometimes it skips going to the recovery and goes into the boot loop. Is there any way to update the bootloader

i will keep you posted, again
and same problem. Bootloop and whenever I go to the HBoot and try to boot into recovery I get the boot loop again and it wont even enter recovery, I gotta pop the battery
what recovery did you use
Please Help I installed a custum ROM and now I am stuck in a loop a skull comes up and droid and it continues till the battery is dies. I have tried to factory reset and nothing the only way to turn it off is to remove the battery can someone please Help
If the ROM is what's causing the problem, doing a factory reset won't change anything; it'll stil keep the same ROM in place. What you might want to do is download a more popular ROM, like a CM7 nightly, put it on your microSD card (using another phone or a microSD adapter, of course) and boot into recovery and flash that.
If that doesn't work, I dunno then. I got a bootloop the other day after using ROM Manager to flash a new kernel. Turns out it was the kernel because after a factory reset, it booted up fine. So I just chose another kernel and it's all good now.
You just might have a screwy ROM. Try reflashing it if you can. What was the custom ROM, btw?
Yeah I'd agree with the above; install another ROM and make sure to wipe cache and dalvik and if it still doesn't work wipe data as well. Note that wiping data will wipe pretty-much everything on your phones memory (SMS messages, contacts, accounts etc)
when it is cm7 than you should take an other kernel
Please, if you are experiencing random reboots (that involve the M logo) or prolonged screen freezes, you should revert to an older beta kernel that is free of the DSI errors. To do so, replace the boot.img in the update-cm-7...zip package with this one (from 0.04 version): http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod4milestone/downloads/detail?name=bootimg0.04.zip

Stole that from another Thread:
_Flash with any rom you have
_Milestone will auto reboot after flash done and loop
_Don't worry about that, remove battery in 5s and re-plugin
_Turn on your milestone: hold X and POWER to access Recovery. Select Wipe and reboot
Do you have a Droid or a Milestone? If you have a Milestone, which country is the device from?
I had a boot loop issue too on my UK Milestone when I tried to install CM6.1.2, version 28.01.2011 0.07-11.01.28. (http://android.doshaska.net/cm6)
This is what I did to fix the problem...
- Flashed UK 2.1 SBF file
- Flashed Vulnerability Recovery
- Rooted the phone
- Installed and booted into OpenRecovery
- Installed 15.01.2011 0.06-11.01.15 version (phone booted fine)
- Rebooted into OpenRecovery > Wiped Dalvik Cache
- Applied 28.01.2011 0.07-11.01.28 version
One more thing, you may need to update and/or change your baseband files.
I hope this helps.
Thx for the help guys I,m back up an running. Greatly appreciated

Hello!
Today, i decided to install cyanogemmod on my 2x. So i downloaded ROM manager and downloaded cyanogenmod. everything went fine until i was going to boot for the first time. I got into a bootloop. so i tried taking out the battery and all that stuff but it still would't work. So i tried to recover the phone. I recovered it to a month old backup (I could not find the one i made in ROM manager before i installed cyanogenmod) The recovery went fine. But, when i rebooted it got into a loop on the lg logo! (the one without the loading bar) it would just load the lg logo, be there for like 10sec, then it would do the same. I tried recovering one more time, but it didn't work. The same thing happend. What should i do? :S Should i wipe data/factory reset?
EDIT: My phone was on android 2.3.4 before i download cyanogenmod.
BTW before i installed cyanogenmod, i forgot to clear cache and data. I was in a hurry so i did't notice the screen popping up, I automatically pressed "ok" without selecting anything.
Thanks for the help

Different partitions... Look for something called backtoext3 in the dev section (or somewhere else) The problem is that when you flash a custom rom like CM you convert your filesystem to EXT4, while stock is EXT3.
So basically what you have to do is:
1) Reboot into recovery
2) Wipe everything
3) Flash Backtoext3 zip
4) Restore Nandroid.
This should work. this will take you back to stock.
So i have to restart the phone, Choose wipe data/factory reset, then flash backtoext3 (how do i do it? lol) then restore nandroid (the backup i just tried to restore twice?)

Yes
Flashing backtoext3 is just flashing the zip file you put on the sd card. (and then install zip from SD ) an then restore your nandroid stock backup and you're back on stock.
But you said you wanted to try CM right? In that case, wipe everything (factory reset/data + cache + dalvik) and then flash the CM7 rom and you have CM! Don't worry about backtoext3, your partitions are already on EXT4, because of your prior CM flash.
Ohh! Thanks Can you send the files for cm (2.3.4)? I've found some, but im not sure if my phone is compitable with them :S im really afraid to mess something up again
My. Signature. (CM7 temasek's KANG = the best CM7 at the moment )
I did everything and i got into a bootloop at the skating andriod screen again
OK, restored my phone back... Now it wont connect to the network and the battery has a question mark inside it. It also says the battery level is 999% heelp
Nvm, got my phone back to normal still dont understand why cm wont work...
You need cwm5 to flash cm.
I have a G2x, which is basically the same phone. But anyway, I would recommend nvflashing CWM and not getting it from ROM Manager.
CWM 5.0.2.0 will do just fine, but it is indeed old...
Anyway, are you sure you waited long enough on the CM boot screen? The first boot might take a couple of minutes. (4 or 5)
Hey XDA
Been trying to go back to stock ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224752 odexed version) where I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618 using Method 1 under "Going back to stock" section. What I did was
1. Make backup of the ROM before I trying to go back to stock ROM
2. Format Data and wipe dalvik and normal cache several times so I was pretty certain of having a clean phone
3. Used sidepush to transfer ROM from PC to HTC One in recovery mode (FYI, using TWRP recovery)
4. Installed the ROM (While installing I noticed it said that first boot would take some time, but not how much or some sort of estimate)
5. Wiped dalvik and normal cache
6. Rebooted to system
Now it is just stuck on the standard HTC "quietly brilliant" startup logo and has been for 20+ minutes and still nothing happens. What have I done wrong and what can I do to fix this?
I'm trying to install the ElementalX Kernel onto my HTC One for overclocking. I've had it installed before but have since downloaded and installed an updated ROM which removed the kernel. When installing the Kernel using TWRP I'm able to go all the way though the setup of the Kernel but when I select to install it shows /wipecache as the first line then goes black before restarting back to android.
I've checked the MD5 on the phone itself and it matches up, I've performed a system reset, and a fastboot cache erase as well as selecting different frequencies in the kernal installer itself but still have the same issue. I've had a search of the forums and wasn't able to find any matching exactly so any advice is appreciated.
Some of the Versions:
Sense: 5.5
Android 4.4
ROM: Android Revolution HD One 40.3
TWRP v2.6.3.3
Trying to install
ElementalX-m7-10.5
Nevermind, reinstalled the ROM again, restarted, factory reset, and working.

Sometimes it happens when you instal bulletproof or elementalx kernels. Although you didn't have to factory reset, all you have to do in this situation is either dirty flash your rom again, or backup the system partition and then restore it, and then reboot, and just to be safe fastboot erase cache and then flash the kernel again and it should be good now.
