How do I deodex my phone or do I even need to, to install a rom/theme? I mean I've been trying to install the Dragon rom by Team Var and my phone won't go past the htc Powered by android screen. Also is there a rom for Boost Mobile HTC Desire 510 phones or kernel for lollipop? Also I'd like to know if I need to re-lock my boot loader?

Hey guys,
My HTC Desire HD was really easy to root and flash ROMs for. But my One X was terrible for it, the kernel needed to be flashed via adb every single time I wanted to flash a new ROM, and since we couldn't get S-Off, we needed to wait for HTC to upgrade our Hboot - we were completely unable to do it ourselves so that severely crippled ROM development.
Is the Xperia Z like this? How open is it?

It's very easy with the XZ. Even flashing stock there's no need for rooting or unlocking the BL. I had HTC phones as well. And the HTC One X/XL was a let down in terms of rooting.
Hi guys, help me, I just brick my htc....
I bought HTC one 802d edition (china telecom with dual simcard cdma and gsm), then i upgrade into latest ROM (online update), and already become jelly bean 4.2.2, after that i was unlock the bootloader, install TMW recovery, everything going smooth..
after that, i try to make S-OFF with moonshine (i've tried before to other my HTC phone, and no problem), i run from the moonshine that for this phone/rom (802d), after a few steps, on the steps that dots (......), after 30 minutes, is not over yet, i think it becomes stuck, so i unplug the HTC from the computer and stop the progress. But after that my phone stuck in HTC logo (the chinese logo after HTC never shows), and what i see in bootloader, the phone cannot find the ROM .... I don't understand what happened, i try to run the moonshine again from condition htc logo, i can run the process normally, but again, stuck in the dots ..., but this time i wait, for almost 1 hour, than there's error in the end.
Since than my phone stuck in HTC logo, but still can go to bootloader or recovery. after that i also tried ROM maximus hd, just like i tried before, still bootloop (the ROM is for HTC 802d), after that i also tried some chinese ROM that base on stock ROM, but always fail to install on TMW...
right now my phone still TAMPERED and S-ON ...
i'm trying to recover to stock ROM, (already download from htc1guru.com), but still have no idea how to install the stock rom to the phone...
Please help me how to fix this ... Already looking in the forum, but still haven't find the answer/solution...

if your bootloader is unlocked... you can flash a custom recovery with "fastboot flash recovery [recoveryfilename].img" then you can push a ROM to your device in the recovery mode and flash it from there or you can use a RUU and with a RUU you don't need to worry about custom recovery.
ok i have made a mess of my phone and am hopping that someone can help me sort it out. i am newbee to this.
i bought an htc m8 on sprint from ebay and shipped it over to ireland. so in order to try and sim unlock it so i could use it on networks over here i did a small bit of reading (not enough as it turns out). i unlocked the bootloader and flashed twrp recovery for sprint. i then downloaded a new rom thinking that it would also unlock my sim. i wiped my phone system before flashing the new rom but forgot to make a backup of my stock rom so there is no going back for me to that. so the way i sit at the moment i managed to get cm12 nightly to work its rooted with s-on.. i tryed using sunshine to s-off but it tells me i need to install a rom closer to stock. any rom i install wont work and i just boot back into bootloader.. i would like to get s-off if thats posable now and also install a rom that looks more like htc stock with sence on it...
thanks in advance
If you go to the HTC dev website, you can download an RUU to get back to Stock sense. Then after that you can S-Off and root and do all the other stuff you wanted

Alot of phones ive noticed especially HTCs and the like wont boot directly into recovery when using adb commands,im guess it may have something to do with the order the phone boots the partitions and allows access to them.i have a 626s,i see youre asking about the 626,but i assume the process may be similar.if you are able to boot into TWRP,download the flashable supersu zip from chainfires website,then flash/install from TWRP. That should root your phone if your bootloader is indeed unlocked & you have TWRP. S-ON/S-OFF wont play a factor if youre unlocked.
If this does not work,whats your OS Version and model #? Is it 5.1?

Hi thabks for your reply man I do have bootloader unlocked for sure but the problem is every time I boot into recovery it loads the htc screen with red writing at the bottom then dose not load just reboots back to bootloader screen and dose not go into twrp just reboots everytime into fastboot screen I use the twrp for 626s new version realsed by captian as there is no custom rom for 626 also I am on 5.1thats correct it seems to be impossible to get it rooted
Its not necessarily impossible,if you flash twrp via fastboot commands,it shouldnt be an issue.
"Fastboot flash recovery filename.img" where the filename is whatever your recovery file is.when you boot into the bootloader,click on go to recovery.if thats not working,im guessing that this twrp isnt gunna work for your device.
What does the red writing say out of curiousity? Does it show an htc logo and something like security warning etc.?
Hello XDA so I a trying to update this device to android 7.0 or high would anybody be able to assist I can not seem to even find a custom rom for the sprint version of this device I do understand I need bootloader unlocked to do this which I just download TWRP then go from there
