so I installed eaglesblood version 1.08 i think. It is the latest one whaterver version it is and it was a great rom I really liked it but how do you get it to sync with google? Do I have to install gaps or something?If anyone knows I would really like some help because it is way better than stock. I had to restore my last rom because I needed to use the phone for contacts and also I live on long island and we just got hit with a hurricane and I was without sevice when I did the flash and I had no way to get to the market to install anything.

Yes you have too flash gapps. Il here is the link download it place on sd card boot into cwm and install the zip http://www.multiupload.com/WK7CNN5YLR dont forget too hit the thanks.button
Gapps gives you the.market google maps and gmail. Too sync with google u need too have the gapps installed. And click menu settings accounts and syn and click add account then select google and sign in your google account. Then your contacts will be restored and you can download from the market
Cool thanks alot. That is what I thought. I will hit the thanks as soon as I can get to a PC. App doesn't seem to ha e a way to thank you.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
That is why i do not use the app i go too xda website.on dolphin browser. Thats how.i read the forumsband download my roms
I also use dolphine HD browser it is the best mobile browser I have ever seen. I dont know why I didnt think of hat in the first place. Oh well I took care of it again I really apriciate your help. So I take it you use Eaglesblood yourself? If I have any question can I ask you? I do want to try all of the ROMS on this fourm.
OK this is weird I reinstalled it and everything is fine but I seem to haved lost my internal SD card. in file manager I cant find it and even when I hooke it up to my PC it is not there. Any Ideas anyone? I did two things differently when I flashed this time. I Always wipe the Dalvik first which I did but then I wiped thecache then did the factory reset usually I just go in order in the list and do Data reset then the one after wipe cache could that have anything to do with it? Also after I flashed the EB ROM I flashed the LG camera and gaps before I reset the phone instead of doing all three in a seperat process maybe that did it? If anyone can help I would really apriciate it.

update: I restored my last backup from right before I flashed EB and everything went back to normal. So what I am doing now Is moving Titainum folder to my external SD so if it happens again I can still install my programs. Good thing I always make two backups of everything one on my HD and one on my ext HD for my computer. I am going to try again with EB because it is a kick ass ROM. Just a pain in the ass to get working right. This Is my first ROM that is not stock or based off stock like XB. I will keep this tyhread updated.
Update: Installed ver 8 again and still not working right I am not getting sservice now only wifi. So I tried ver 7 and that got service right away and it was all good for about 15 minutes and then I lost the green but still had service but no data no epc.tmobile when I search for networks I get 2 tmobile and att neither tmobile works for data. So whats happening anyone?
I've decided to finally take the plunge and install a custom rom onto my Infuse. I've read through the various rom threads, but they are so saturated with information that I just can't figure out which I want to install.
So, I ask you guys. Which rom is the most stable? By that I mean: which rom will I have the least problems with? Honestly, I've had zero problems with stock, but I'm looking for something new. I would like to have as little problems as possible. I'm just sick of waiting around for the AT&T GB update.
Thanks in advance
I'm using SerendipityVII right now. It works quite well. Haven't had any problems.
I used Infusedv2 before changing to SVII, but I liked SVII's themes I saw out on the forum. Both ran amazingy well. I never had any problems with either of them. What I suggest is trying them out for yourself. Maybe you'll spot out a problem I didn't. So the best thing for you is to give them a go. If you don't like them, you can always go back to stock or simply install a different one. The instructions on how to install them are pretty much clear, and even if you accidentally brick it, Odin is always there to back you up. But my suggestion is Serendipity.
Awesome man thanks!
I think I will give Infused a try first, as I the Touchwiz look has grown on me quite a bit. Hopefully I don't mess this up!
No problem man. What I suggest is read some more info on how to unbrick it, just in case you do, you already have an idea on how to do it. This way, you won't freak out once it happens lol. I've actually bricked mine a couple of times already because I don't read the instructions carefully on how to flash different ROMs. LOL. So don't be stupid like me and take your time.
Definitely man was just reading through one now.
I'm a little worried about my system info though. The instructions for Infused rom say not to restore apps and data with Titanium Backup. Will my apps still be there when the rom boots up? Or is there another way I should go about backing them up?
This is all so confusing
Restore MISSING apps and data only.
As to stability - other than CM7/MIUI they're all stable. The Dlev port can potentially have some instability as it includes an overclock kernel by default. It's a quality-not-quantity game us devs play.
All of the ROMs have a few known issues (many traceable back to Rogers Gingerbread or all the way back to Google in the case of the Market large download issues), but no showstoppers.
When installing any new rom on your phone it is highly recommended that you delete all system data and wipe the cache.
FEAR not though!! Back up all your apps with data with titanium backup prior to flashing the new rom. Once the rom is flashed and you download titanium, run the batch to RESTORE MISSING APPS WITH DATA. This will put all your apps back onto your phone with any data they had(settings, saves in games, etc.)
I just started messing with roms myself and I'm enjoying it, just always make sure you have a recent backup with titanium before you flash and then you can enjoy.

Haha I just keep getting more confused!
If I back up with Titanium, wipe the cache and system data, and then flash the rom, won't that mean when the phone boots back up with Infused that it will have no apps or anything else on it? Even Titanium Backup?
If that is the case how will Titanium Backup know what to restore?
Wish I wasn't such a noob
You'll boot the rom that you installed without any apps unless they were packed with the rom. Once loaded, go to the market and download titanium again and it'll locate the back up you had. From there restore missing apps + data and it'll install all the apps you had previously when you backed up your phone.

Thanks so much. I had just started the installation figuring I would have to just re-download everything, but this is a huge relief haha
I'd advised getting the pro version btw. I believe the free version will let you do the batch install for all the apps, but you'll have to OK every single app it tries to install. The paid version won't make you do this, trust me you'll want the paid version.
BTW, it's cheaper to get the pro version from inside of the program than it is to get it off the market.
Holy crap that was super quick! I was thinking it would take hours to install.
Now just to get all my apps back!
Thanks for all the help everybody!
NP, enjoy. Using infused myself and it's pretty stable. Only gripe I have about it is the gps is pretty crappy. I haven't had a working gps since stock froyo.

Yeah, that was a bit bothersome. Everytime I opened an app that needed GPS, I was like "Cr*p... I forgot. That doesn't work."
They are all good and stable.... But I am using Serendipity VII myself.
Sent from my Samsung Infuse 4G - 1.6ghz
One other thing besides purchasing TB Pro, is that you should back up every once in a while in CWM. Its take forever to restore if you need to use it, but i trust it over TB ANY DAY!!!! Just a suggestion.
I think for the most part all the ROMs are stable, but I've had the most success and have been happiest with Infuse 2.2
Best Rom
In my opinion, the best ROM by far is the Miui ROM for this phone
so.. based on my search, i guess i am more stupid than the rest of you.
what i did, seems to havent been done... yet.
so, i have an HTC sensation 4G, bought new from tmobile 2 weeks ago.
then a friend suggested me to root it... and i did so.
it was great! i actually loved it. Then, he suggested that i tried different roms. And reviews and people actually loved it, so i went ahead and installed.
agter using it for 2 days, i didnt like it. it was buggy, and it lost OEM features that i liked. So, i tried to go back to stock, to no avail...
then i had the brilliant idea of wiping the phone with the Wipeout program from the HD revolution. It too worked.
then, i plugged it to the PC hoping to be able to do something... now the phone starts. but does nothing (obviouly, it has no OS)
what can i do?
Ultimately, i want to return the phone to the way it was when i took it out of the box.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
well.. i sorta solved the main issue, and now the phone is alive again. but i still am running HD revolution.
does anyone knows how to go back and unroot the thing?
Try one of the other roms. Pyarmid, or insert coin roms are my faviout. No lagging, and all of the stock things. Insert coin runs sense 3.5, and not 3, so a few more little tweeks.
Just rember todo cache wipe, and delvik wipe 1st. Flash the super wipe you have, then before turning the phone on flash the rom.
Once loaded, go through the set up. AND THEN REBOOT, should work great for you then

You can not go back to your original stock Rom if you did not do a backup at the time.
Maybe this Post will help you.
I think this post is the different roms that come with the phone in different place

Well, strange issue here that I'm going crazy over. Recently I've rooted and such but run stock Rom on my one s. I downloaded a google play patcher and freedom apks to check them out and suddenly lost connection whenever I would open google play store so I knew right away it was a result of those apks. I uninstalled them and tried again with no luck. I then reinstalled google play store apk and cleared all the data/cache with still no results. At this point I decided to back up my important apps via titanium backup and did a complete factory reset. Setting my phone back up it asked me for my google account to synch contacts and such. Full signal 4g and full signal WiFi both fail to connect to google. Aside from trying to flash a new Rom and try I'm at a loss. I don't want to use a custom Rom I only want root access on my phone. Does anyone know how I can fix this ? I know the google patcher and freedom jacked my phone up and I do intend to avoid them for good now. Thanks.

Reset wont work if the patcher patched an apk. If you got TWRP or CWM you could try flashing gapps to see if that works.
Thanks for the quick reply ill try to figure it out. Would gapps be on already or do I have to go find it somewhere?

Get gapps here and make sure you get the right one.
Thanks again but how do you determine which one? I run stock Rom. Those appear to be for cyanogenmo. Would I need to flash that beforehand? I'm not experienced really in doing any of this and I know its not your problem so I really am quite thankful for the assistance. The only thing I've done is unlock bootloader, flashed TWRP and installed superuser. Flashing other rims I wanted to avoid as I'm content with the stock and didn't want to move away from the familiar. If its the only way to recover my google access then ill have to though I guess.

If its 4.0.4 then use the one for CM9 and if its 4.1.1 then you want the CM10. If that don't work and don't want custom rom the you need a RUU to get it fully stock.
Well phone told me 4.0.4 so ill give it a try. Thanks again, ill report back if it worked.
Well, I downloaded, booted recovery, flashed it, rebooted and now all the google apps just force close so I can't even get the connection error. I'll try flashing a Rom later or the ruu. If anyone has any ideas much appreciated.
Did you clean cache and dalvik-cache after you flashed it? You also need to clear the data for the google apps (done in settings -> apps in the phone) alt. factory reset it.

Yup already done. Both actually, I cleared the data/cache in the settings and I did a factory reset twice. No luck. I'm going to attempt flashing a custom ROM if I can find one that is actually decent but most appear to have issues with WiFi or something that'd drive me nuts. flash the partition patch is recommended like with the viper but after readying 20 pages I have no idea still wth they're talking about.
As far as I can work out, it seems the wifi issues is mainly with t-mo devices. Ive never had any wifi issues on mine with hboot 1.14.
I have a TmoUS HTC ONE S S4. Not entirely sure what hboot is. Like I said i'm still kinda new but I did read enough to see that there's WiFi issues so I don't want to push it. Ive been reading through all the ICS ROMS and half seem to be outdated and broken.
If you want an ICS rom, go with ViperS 1.2.1. Great rom
hboot is listed in the bootloader.
Viper is the rom that's apparently having wifi issues from what I read where it says to flash the partition or whatever and I couldn't find out what they were talking about. I'm checking out some JB rom now called jellybam, if I can manage to install it hopefully it works out. As for the hboot thing still no idea lol I'm honestly not going to try to figure it out. I simply want my phone with root access and working google again I don't want a custom rom at all but I apparently have no choice

Try Viper 1.2.1 and if you have issue then there is a TrickDroid thats T-Mobile base so it should be fine there.
I've successfully flashed Viper 2.0 and have access to google again now finally. Only issue is that sine I had the 4.04 update my wifi no longer works so I have to figure out how to fix that. There's flashing of something but I have no idea what he was talking about as he simply said that and provided no links or explanations.

You can't fix it without upgrading to JB which you can't yet or downgrade the Hboot, so you better off trying Viper 1.2.1 and see how that goes for wifi.
xD exactly the reason I didn't want a non-stock ROM lol Honestly after the headache I'm just going to keep what I have. I thought the H signal was pretty much the G network but it turns out that it's fast like my normal 4G which it keeps bouncing between 3G and H. Makes no sense to me but as long as i'm not down in the basement I should have 4G signal. All this flashing and having to reinstall everything and update blah blah just isn't worth the trouble and effort. I have half the mind to revert back to stock rom and just reroot and leave it there hopefully working.

I think this is the best time to do it since you not settled with it yet and I like I said there is T-Mobile TrickDroid so you wont even lose wifi calling and also pretty much stock.
For some reason that didn't work either. I relocked bootloader, reflashed stock Rom and rerooted. Everything works again, thanks again for the help though guys. This thread can be closed now.
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using xda premium
Oneplus One on 5.1.1 (12.1) on jgcaap's 11/30/2015 build. I used to be really into flashing and modding phones but have since moved and changed jobs. I just haven't been able to enjoy this hobby lately, or several others. Over the last month or so any time I reboot the phone it is missing several apps when it comes back on. This happens whether I manually reboot, or if an error causes it reboot on its own. This morning it rebooted on its own and lost Google Play Services... Now I can't use the market, and many of the apps I have cannot work either.
I want to install a new ROM. I am concerned with the process because I will be coming from such an old build. I am going to start researching ROM's but I need to get it done soon. I hate to be the guy who shows up not having done his research. Since this is the "help" forum I was hoping someone would be willing to give me a little guidance. I just need a reliable ROM, doesn't have to be the fastest or too fancy. I will post up here when I decide which one to try but I am completely open to suggestions.
In the short term I plan to re-install gapps. I found the old tkGapps thread and downloaded the mini modular package. So hopefully doing that will buy me some time.
Thank you for reading, and any guidance will be greatly appreciated.

Looks organized! I'll give it a try. I will read about it tonight while it is downloading. I live remote now so sloooow internet. It will give me some time to read.
So, it won't cause any issue going straight from 5.1.1 to this 7.x.x ROM? Years ago on Samsungs it had to be done in steps sometimes.
Thank you so much for the reply.
Installed with no drama! I was so concerned there would be some kind of Samsung-esque step maneuver/install this kernal then flash this rom, then after that install the ROM stuff... So easy!! Thanks!
Questions:
1. do I need Busybox? I run a few root apps. I don't know if we still use this.
2. is Titanium Backup fully functional in this build? I used to back up some of my more important apps then restore them with data. Of course no system apps.
3. Can't remember #3 so #3 is Thank goodness this fixed my phone! Thank you Sir!

Problem still exists with new ROM.
I was out of town yesterday and thought my phone was working correctly. Some of my google contacts were missing but that was easy enough to address. Today I rebooted my phone to install super su using twrp. I haven't had to root this phone in literally 2 years. I read here to install super su in recovery. Here's the problem. When the phone was booted up it is now missing about 40% of the apps I had previously installed. I installed all of them from the play store manually. Now I am starting to think my phone has a hardware problem, which makes me sad. I really love this phone.
I did a quick search trying to find someone with a similar problem but was unsuccessful. I haven't been able to search more thoughouly yet. If anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them.

Could you tell me which SuperSU you flashed?
Today this is the one I installed. https://download.chainfire.eu/1220/SuperSU/SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502.zip I believe it is version 2.82.
When I installed the ROM it asked me at the end if I wanted to install super su, because twrp didn't detect root. I slid the bar to allow it, but I never got root access. That is why I tried the one I manually downloaded today.
In case it makes a difference I am using an older version of twrp. It was the good one to use back then. I don't know what version it is, and I am afraid to reboot my phone to find out.
Any ideas on this?
I have been unable to get root. So I haven't been able to use any root tools to work on it. Can't backup or restore apps. I wanted to try a trim app to trim the nand.
If I don't come up with a better idea before tonight I plan to reinstall DotOS again with Gapps. Then just try to not ever reboot the phone. I can't afford a new device right now. I may just have to flash it fresh every week or two. I guess that will keep my phone light.
I have installed 2 different ROM's now and this problem persists. If my phone reboots it will delete about half my apps. If it was a Samsung I would "Odin back to stock" and hope for the best. I don't think that is possible on this device.
If I find a solution I will post here about it. Otherwise this problem is a death sentence for this phone. I am only posting this now so if this happens to someone else's device they can see how it went with mine.

I appreciate your help MR. AK. I had seen that thread but didn't realize what it would do. I flashed my phone back to stock using the files and directions in that thread. after i was done I let it run like that for a short time then installed a custom ROM and Gapps. That was Sunday and now on Tuesday I have installed most of my apps and rebooted the phone 3 times. It hasn't lost any apps! *knocks on wood* So far so good! Now I just have to read up on that screen cable issue. The bottom still smears out sometimes.
Thanks again for the help Mr. AK. I used to be into flashing all the time but have hit hard times. I have't been able to keep up with everything like I used to. I have been modifying phones since before the Moto RAZR came out. Used to be a member at motomodders.net which is now defunct. I hope to get back into it soon. XDAdevs is a great community. Happy new year everyone!
