If you have done super CID already, then all you would need to do is run the RUU of your choice (WWE would do nicely), then re-flash the recovery, and then flash any ROM you want.

In first place, i have a InsertCoin ROM, concretely "Insert Coin Sense 2.3.5 Sense 3.5 v3.4.6".
Now, when i want to install the new ICS vesion of InsertCoin, i read on thread that i need to update the firm, with this (mediafire.com/?utpdjggalstxz)
I just installed it, and now, my HTC restart again and again. I have tried to go into the bootloader by pressing VOLUP+POWER but it isnt work.
Please, i need help.
edit: i have downloaded the firm from the htc, and i have moved it with "ES explorer"... (the zip could be corrupt, but now what can i do?)

How did you try to flash that PG58IMG? It has to be a Zip file and has to be flashed via Hboot. Just put it on your sd card, turn your phone off and start it again by pressing vol. down and power. Confirm, reboot to recovery, flash rom, be happy.
[I would do a fullwipe and format sd card before flashing ICS, that does magic to me. After formating sd card, toggle to usb storage and put your rom on sd card]
Your phone is probably bootlooping because the new 3.24 firmware is not compatible with the rom you have on your phone.
You need to get the new IC 4.4.3 rom onto your phone, boot into recovery and install it. Then you'll be fine.

Yes, that is that i have done. The only thing that i didnt know is that the firm installation delete my rom. Now i need to install a new rom.
But i would like to know something before, could i to reinstall my old rom without doing any wipe? I would like to do some backups of some apps data before wipe all. Is this possible?

You have to flash the old Hboot, 1.17 or 3.12 i think. But the new ICS works only with 3.24
But you shoudn't restore anything, brings only new problems... make a full wipe and format everything before flashing, even sd card

Since I'm too new to post in the Development section and didn't want to start a new thread, I'll ask here..
I'm running ICS 4.4.2. The latest version 4.4.3 just got released. Do I need to do a full wipe to upgrade?
and also, If I was to upgrade to 4.4.3, should I select "upgrade from zip" or "install from zip"?
1) Full wipe is not necessary. I would clear the cache, though.
2) Install from zip

did you try to flash the rom again?
(1) Flash Firmware 3.33 first! You can find one such file PG58IMG.zip in My hTC Files in the signature.
(2) Then Install the ROM again from Recovery. But, before you do that, do a Full Wipe and a Wipe of Cache + Dalvik.

I have CWM 5.0.2.7. I want to upgrade from 2.3.6 Gingerbread to Android 4(PACMAN ROM preferred). I tried at least 50 - 75 times flashing >5 different ROMS, almost once bricked my phone... I found stable Gingerbread 2.3.6 and I am using it right now. I really want to upgrade to version 4, because I develop apps in Buzztouch and they will now support Android devices with Honeycomb or later. My question now is: how can I really upgrade to Android 4, because every ROM I flash is stuck at the first boot. Any help?
There is absolutely zero possibility of bricking your phone in flashing custom ROMs unless you do it in a wrong way (flashing other phone's ROM ). Same thing goes for bootloop. Wipe data,cache, dalvik cache and even format /system before flashing and also do wipes after flash. This way u can view a new dimension to the android world

I already knew everything you said, even more, but thanks for idea of formatting /system. Maybe that is the main problem. Thank you so much!
UPDATE! Nothing is working. I think I will give up on ROMing.
Lol which baseband are u on? Try to flash latest stock rom ie DXKT7 and then flash a custom rom.

I cannot find any with DXKT7 baseband. I am on XWKTI.
I got the same problem. Flashing from stock 2.3.6 XWKTI to any other cm 10.1 rom is not working. Clearing caches etc. does not help.
Any solution to this?
The latest rom I tried is cm-10.1-20130907-NIGHTLY-beni.zip. No luck so far.
What is wrong here?
Solved. I used the wrong CWM. beni_cwm-5_ext4_v2.tar does the trick.

The CWM you use might be a one which is not working. At least I used a CWM 5.0.2.7. But it was rfs which is not compatible with the S5670.
So install CWM beni_cwm-5_ext4_v2.tar and you will be able to install any custom rom without problem.

I am using this apk:
CF-Root-ext4-v1.3-Addon.apk from Chainfire, but it is not made for my phone.
It has options for converting ext4 to rfs and rfs to ext4, but I am scared to do that. How can I manually convert from rfs to ext4? And, will my system even boot after doing that?
Possible solution...
Hi,
I have successfully flashed cm-10.1-20130914-NIGHTLY-beni.zip using ClockWorkMod 6.0.2.7. I initially had problems getting cm 10.1 to boot, it would just stop at the cyanogenmod logo. I got this ROM to work by first flashing ╰☆╮ [ROM][CM7.2] JellyBread v5.0 | SURPRISE! UPLOAD COMPLETE! ╰☆╮. then flashing the nightly.
Good luck:fingers-crossed:.
Regards,
jemail
I wouldn't recommend installing ICS on a Galaxy Fit. The phone doesn't really stand that much of the ROM itself.. I use a rom that'll look exactly alike it, that's basically it. But I tried Lenio vQuattro. it seemed pretty nice If you really need to then try this rom. And it wouldn't be such a bad idea tp update CWM, or try another Recovery.

Good question.
I really got no answere to that question. But as far as I know there are CMW for rfs and for ext4/ext3 filesystems.
If you use the wrong CMW than the phone will hang in a boot loop after flashing. That's what I had.
So I suggest you should try different CMW. For rfs and ext4. Better to flash them with Odin. I used Odin_Multi_Downloader_v4.42.exe.
As CWM try: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24719114&postcount=1387 or this CWM http://androidlegend.com/dl/beni_cwm-5_ext4_v2.tar
One of these should work for you.

You need to flash the stock recovery and perform "factory reset + clear storage" fo fix the sd card bug. Once done you can install a custom recovery and flash a custom rom OR ru RUU to get your phone back to full stock

Thank you, installed RUU and it worked fine. Thanks!
So in order this is how i Flash the ViperSV_1.5.0 Rom
1.Go into recovery (TWRP) go to Wipe do a factory reset and then go to advance Wipe Check all the boxes and Wipe.
2. I then go to Mount then Mount USB Storage and place the ViperSV_1.5.0.zip on my SD
3. I the go to install i select ViperSV_1.5.0.zip
4.The setting i choose Perform a full wipe, I don't select DeSense mod, I don't remove any apps and don't select keyboard.
5. The flash starts Its Checks Model ID(Success), It executes Full wipe , Says writing data the writing system, at writing system its stops at 83.00% (Extract:/system/media../weather_fog_night.mp4)
Sometimes its stops at different weather files but has never gone past 83.00%
I went to sleep and when i woke up it was stuck on the TWRP recovery loading screen so i took out the battery and tried a reboot but it just went to the quietly brilliant screen and stuck there, im guessing because the ROM didn't flash correctly and there isn't an OS
Please if you have a fix or think there is a fix reply i need of help

Your phone is from boost and you tried to flash vipersv?
There are different partition layouts between european and boost roms. So it seems, it has some firmware parts overwritten.
Is there a way to fix the Wifi Problem
I don't really know, because i don't know what partitions are overwritten.
Maybe a RUU would help you.
But i guess you need to downgrade hboot first. And therefor you need S-Off.
Is there somthing i can do to help
From my side i can't do much. Try to get S-off. If you succeed, the first step is done.
