HELP!!! Cant Go Past HTC Screen

I Followed all instructions to flash the new sense froyo rom, and it wouldnt go past the white htc screen, so i then just tried to install my old rom back and its still doing the same thing. any help?

are you running the FIRERAT's MOD???

Yea i did..

FYI : anytime you flash a new rom after this mod, or flash a new kernal to a currently flashed rom, you will ONLY NEED TO FLASH THE SECONDARY FIRERAT BOOT file named "FR-boot-v1.5.3-CustomMTD_S.zip".
so say after this mod you want to try a new kernal, you flash the kernal, flash boot, and reboot the system.
or say you want to flash a new cm6 nightly update, you flash the new rom/update, flash boot, reboot.
or say u want a new nightly and a new kernal, you flash the nightly, flash the kernal, flash the boot, reboot.
its very simple, if anything u flash overwrites current kernal specifications, u need to flash the boot file to make sure it knows how to set itself up. this goes for nandroid back ups aswell.

[Q] I9003 bricked

Can someone help me....(sorry for my bad english) today i traid to flash [ROM][LF2][15.10.2012]TheFrankenstain^MODv.3.8 #1 after that it was keep loading at the" android" logo so i tried to flash it again...but now it is stuck at the samsung logo and volume up + lock+ home (recovery) now work anymore
Did someone know how i can flash it again without recovery?
PLSSS HELP

-Removed for Personal Information-

i think it is not bricked, it is just a bootloop. check if your downloaded rom is complete. beter redownload the rom and flash it. follow the instructions on flashing on that thread and you will have no problem. flash a stock rom first using odin then flash the custom rom afterwards

Ok thx guys...and i have 1 more question ...there is a diference if i flash stock and after that i flash custom? is smoother or faster or idk...?
i saw in some printscreens that they get high quadrant score but mine is max 2300MAX ever

it is always advisable to do a clean flash ( stock rom first before custom rom). but some custom roms have the option to directly flash from one custom rom to another. everything here is trial and error. so whatever works for you may or may not work to others.

[Q] what happened?

DEVICE : SAMSUNG GALAXY FIT GT S5670
CURRENT ROM : GB 2.3.6 STOCK
I rooted my device a long time ago..but flashed the recovery few days ago only.
So here's what happened?
i flashed "AMON-RA RECOVERY"..then found it to be old.
then tried to flash the "TJ-STYLE RECOVERY" ...BUT SOMEHOW IT DIDN'T WORKED and ODIN was taking very much time.
so aborted and then flashed "PRATYUSH.CREED 'S RECOVERY"... as mentioned in the guide in the forum that this could backup the STOCK ROM.
THEN as mentioned in the guide i took a NANDROID BACKUP of the stock rom ...(didn't knew the backup was successful or not)..
after creating the backup i tried to flash OFFICIAL CYNOGEN MOD 7.2.0 NIGHTLY.ZIP but the process ended very quickly notifying of successfull flashing...
instead when i rebooted after showing the sumsung animation the Device got hungup at a black screen with android written on it at a little right.
then i tried to restore the NANDROID BACKUP...but the recovery showed MD5 ERROR..
I thought may be a unlocked BOOTLOADER is required ..i googled it but couldn't find the procedure...
i then downloaded and flashed a STOCK_GB_2.3.6.tar.md5 rom..
this worked BUT REPLACED THE CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY WITH STOCK RECOVERY
.
.
.
NOW THE QUESTIONS :​
1.why wasn't the NANDROID BACKUP successful ?​
2.why didn't the OFFICIAL CYNOGEN MOD 7.2.0 worked ?​
3.how can i unlock the BOOT LOADER if it is required for the CUSTOM ROMS ?​
4.why the CUSTOM CLOCKWORK MOD got replaced by the STOCK RECOVERY on reflashing with stock rom ?​
help me ...

i m a complete noob, but i will try to help u as much as possible ...
i think,there was a prob with flashing of custom recovery,
i m also on custom recovery (dunno which one) i flashed it as flashable zip frm recovery {i think i installed tj style fr odin then flashed the present recovery }
Also, wen u flash stock rom, u need to root it again ..
nondroid problem? mayb due to recovery problem ..
bootloader thing? sorry i dont knw anything bootloader thing ...
If i were u, i will first install tj style recovery from odin(it roots ur phone too, so no need to root it first) then either use it(its said to b most stable recovery around) or flash another recovery as flashable zip frm the present recovery ...
(i will avoid using odin fr each nd every thing ...)
Hope this helps ^^

HOW WOULD I DO THAT..?
means the tj-style recovery i have is in TAR format...
should i UNcompress and recompress it in ZIP format... ?
AND WHAT POSSIBLE DISADVANTAGES COULD BE FOR THE ODIN ?

1) Nandroid Backup works only for custom roms. For stock roms u can only take a backup but u cant restore (there's a recovery by pratyush.creed which does restore too but i didn't try so can't say)
2)Perhaps u didn't flash properly so it went into bootloop. Use CWM by TJ-style only and next time, wipe data, cache and dalvik cache and format /system just as a precautionary step before flashing custom rom.
3)Samsung Phones doesn't have locked bootloaders. So to flash a rom, u can do it easily
4) The stock rom u flash via ODIN contains stock recovery as well.
U cant flash recovery unless u have other custom recovery (well there is a flashable zip for CWM by tjstyle but i dont know whether it can be flashed via stock recovery). The only way u can do is through ODIN. Make sure ODIN is set properly and if u have windows 7, run it as administrator and better reinstall drivers.

[Q] Stuck on green htc logo

Hello.
I currently have my pico with stock rom, with sense 3.5. and i'm tryin to flash a new rom, but every time i try to flash one from this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1754876 ) i got stuck on htc logo screen. and i cant get passed it... i've wiped everything, reflashed kernel, reflashed stock, but still cant get it to work. maybe these kernels arent for stock roms, if they're not, can you point some kernels that work on stock?
thanks in advance.

Stock rom should have stock kernel too.

Flash the gingerbread kernels.. they must work. PS: The ROM.zip already contain kernels that get installed when the zip is flashed.

where can i find those gingerbread kernels? so if they're inside the "rom.zip" is it possible to "extract" them to a flashable zip? only the kernel withouth the rom itself...?

Gingerbread kernels are in the Index of all kernels..
From the ROM.zip if you want to extract them then just extract the boot.img normally and also extract the modules from the zip .. in /system/lib..
In fastboot mode flash boot.img via :
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
and
then via adb push the modules. I suggest you search a bit and find some answers yourself . Its easier that way cause these questions have been answered millions and millions of times. So use the search function

i've searched, and believe me when i say that i havnt found anything about this... all the kernels i go for, on the thread only talks about the kernel itself and not the roms compatible... and i've tried that method and got stuck on htc green logo... thanks for answering

these kernels work on stock rom:
1- cranium kernel
2- ateeq kernel
3- garuda's kernel
search them in the development thread I hope you'll find them.

i've tried all those kernels... one by one and never got passed the htc green logo... always get stuck there... i tried flashing trough fastboot and trough recovery... nothing works... any other suggetions?

try to flash ateeq rom then ateeq kernel..it works for me.

but i dont want to have ateeq rom, i want to stay with my stock rom, but change the kernel... only that. but thats for answering. i'm getting used to the idea that i cant be changed (the stock kernel).
thanks

I too had an ace plus and I too flashed pure galaxy. But I never had the need to flash any kernel. Try flashing stock ROM and again try to flash any custom ROM. If it do work it's good but nothing happens try changing your rooting method...

dude u flashed the kernel which was specifically meant to be for gb, not for jellybean, so this bootloop will occur definitely...jus flash stock and everything is fine then go for other roms and dont flash any other kernel.. jus flash the rom and gapps
use twrp recovery and your steps are correct...and use odin 3.7
