All other Roms and i mean it ,, is flashed well and i can open it normally but always i find what makes make annoyed >> " All Modems are nearly off "
- Wifi error
- bluetooth no working
- my carrier not working and i can't make a call " the signal appear with cross as being offline "
please help me , as i need to upgrade my rom badly

Do you flash the boot.img from the ROM after each flash??
Here's how - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19071114&postcount=37

Many thanks for you , i just thought that flashing the boot.img in the first time only will fit
thanks very much , it worked well

Remember, you need to flash it every time you flash a ROM. In most cases, it won't boot at all without flash. Sometimes, it may boot but you'll experience the issues you did right now.

[q] ARHD [htc one x]

Just want to say thanks to mike who made the ARHD rom it works nicely on my first HTC handset.
also i have a few queries maybe someone can help me with.
I installed the ARHD version 2.0.0 straight up.
-i notice some occasions of Flickering screen
read in the main thread and some ppl are reporting same experience, so hopefully this is not just my phone.
-after installation, the first step of initial setup wizard, only have like 5 choices of telcom to choose from? is this normal? i m in Australia and with Vodafone and obviously not in the list so i choose some random telco. is this ok? what does these choices matter to the setup???
Thanks!
Try the latest (v3.1) version of the ROM. It supposed to run very smoothly.
thanks mate.
I just update to the latest ARHD to date, 3.1.0.
Its been so good so far!

[Q] Sense 4 Boot problem or what?

Hello everyone,
I love to try different roms like everyday,
recently I tried Sense 4 Rom InsertCoin,
I don't know if it is ROM or i'm not doing it correctly,
but here's what I did.....
- From arhd 6.6.5 rom, Wiped/Format everything except sdcard
- Flash new firmware, tried two different, one link from arhd thread & other from Firmware's page, TMO-3.32 latest one...
- Flash the ROM........
Now, sometimes, it just turn on in like 15 seconds maximum "brightness lowers & quitely brilliant comes up", sometimes it takes more than 15 minutes & do nothing.
if I accidently get it working, I avoid to reboot, but if I have to, it get itself stuck on HTC screen & I have to reinstall the ROM to make it work again with 4-5 minutes boot time.......
which makes my phone's base hot like real HOT
So any help will be highly appreciated.....
as I am getting more than awesome battery life on this InsertCoin ROM compared to arhd.........
Thanks a lot........
EDIT:
I used official ROM & re-rooted & did all stuff again.....
now used firmware attached with arhd & it's working great......
I don't know what was problem but it's working good now

You shouldn't have flashed the firmware. Both ROMs (mainly all ICS ROMs) use the same 3.32 firmware. So if the firmware you used on ARHD worked fine, it should work on all other ICS ROMs. probably something went wrong while reflashing firmware...
Glad you worked it out in the end.

I had the same issue, are you flashing ARHD with EXT4 recovery?
If so, make sure to enable smart flashing from the tools menu.
That solve my problem.

afaik, Smart Flashing is only for devices with S-On......
While I got S-Off on my device.......
Thanks for your concern though.......

Very strange, sounds as though the digitizer at the top of the screen isn't working, if you run another app, like the browser are you able to access the address bar ie the top of the screen? try a drawing style application (ie Paint from PC) and see if you can draw at the top of the screen?

i have really done what you said ,, i can open browsers and write normally , even after rotating the device , i can touch the items from that area and it works
i don't know why that happened , also before the problem appear permanently , it was sometimes work and sometimes not
i was restarting my mobile think of ROM Bug , but it didn't work after that starting from yesterday
can this problem be caused by kernel 3 ( Sense 4 ) ??
but as i said i flash another ROM of Endy 3.1 with no luck !!
the fact that you've flashed multiple ROMs suggests a device issue?
Are you S-OFF or htcdev unlocked?
HTC DEV unlocked , and still S-ON
this will play a role on that ??

It could do, it will mean that you may still have the PRIMO kernel?
Have you been using the command
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
from your PC to flash the boot image (kernel) each time that you change ROM?
i have already flashed the boot.img and do that with any flashed rom
my suspect refer to PRIMO ROM , as the problem happened when i flashed it ,, is there anyway to totally remove anything related to this kernel ???
If you flashed the ENDYMION boot.img extracted from the ENDYMION ROM file then you should have done so....
It may well be worth, repeating what you've already done, just in case you made a mistake?....
Copying ROM (Endymion) onto SD card
Booting into recovery
Wiping/formatting ALL partitions (data/system/boot/cache)
install the ROM (flash the ZIP)
then use the fastboot flash boot command with the Endymion file.
just noticed something i want to say
when i try to wipe dalvik cache , a message appears every time
E:unknown voume for path [/sd-ext]
also i remember something , when i flashed PRIMO for the first time , and after boot a " Encryption unsuccessful " screen appeared .. can that help to know the root cause ???
that sounds related to your sd, have you another sd that you can use instead?
Swyped from my DesireS
sorry , i don't have another SD Card , but to be sure , i saved my data , formatted my SD card and partitioned it using recovery to 2048 MB and 64 swap , installed fallout and flashed boot.img
After all of that , also have no luck , i don't know if i should visit any HTC Store or i can fix it myself using any help from xda !!
I'm sure it's not related but you don't need swap on your sd on this device it has plenty of main memory
you could try service Centre
See if any one else on here has any input
Swyped from my DesireS
I have got my mobile fixed , it seems that the problem is famous in some of HTC Devices.
The Service Center has replaced the screen with a new one , and it's working normally now
Thanks alot

[Q] GSM support for alien rom on xperia J

[Q] Is there any way to get GSM network to work on cyanogen based Alien rom, in xperia j?
I just rooted my Xperia J 4.1.2 (.31) yesterday and went ahead with AVD which supposed to be based on stock xperia rom. But unfortunately its was a bit buggy. SystemUI.apk suddenly stops working and many apps kept crashing on me .. few other roms like slim were asking to be downgraded to ICS which i dont want to... then came Alien rom to my rescue. this rom is really clean not to mention the Acid Audio ENgine and stuff ...T____T I so badly want to keep this rom its ****ing perfect..!!! if only if the GSM would work, which while installing i didn't know that no cyanogenmod 10 based rom has GSM support !
Now i'm whining here because i just want someone more knowledgeable than me to give me the confirmation that that i have absolutely no other choice, other than going back to the AVD. LIke the GSM fix for the ICS baseband is there positively NOTHING out there for JB :crying:
You need to downgrade to ics first, then flash any cm10 based rom, or gsm.will not work.
Sent from my Xperia Miro
just one more doubt...

getting out of alien rom and reinstalling AVD i screwd up and soft bricked my phone.
SO i had to use a pc to reflash the stock JB. BUt that has locked the bootloader again coz the PC companion can detect my phone again.
so just need to confirm certain things...
SO if i flash stock ICS then i will have to unlock my bootloader again right...? I presume i will have to root my phone too all over again... ? before installing the rom ?
PLease HELP!!!
Ok this is sooo irritating...!!! T____T
I flashed my phone with 4.0.4 ICS, st26i_11.0.a.3.18_global.ftf form Matej X's 4shared folder.
http://www.4shared.com/folder/25Mb7Dws/Xperia_J.html
the ST26i_11.0.A.7.5_CE.ftf from that folder when put into firmwares folder of flashtools, doesn't even show up !!!
i figured to root st26i_11.0.a.3.18_global.ftf from this guide http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2033114&highlight=st26i+root+ics
but not inspite of downgrading to ics, when i installed MIUI5 rom i'm i'm getting no simcard ad hense GSM is not working all manually scanned networks are shown as "UNKNOWN" !
Now i have flashed back to stock ICS rom...
when i flast the stock rom using flashtool the simlock.ta file gets ignored. what's up with that, wherever i have read about its not supposed to be a issue...
Can someone help me this is really getting frustrating....
Can some one help me find the link for ST26i_11.0.A.7.5_CE.ftf ICS stock rom which will be detected by flashtool...
MIUI5 was really nice, I would like to use it. Its based on cyanogenmod10 fxp 226 ... My issue with that is i use the instruction here to install it, but its condusing.
https://sites.google.com/site/projectfreexperia/download/howto-install
It says "6.Wipe device
from cm9 device wipe is necessary only at first flash or when you switch cm version
!!! if after boot you experience ForceClose then is recomended to reboot to recovery and wipe device
7.Partition format
is not recomended to format your partitions unless you are advised to do otherwise"
Now in CWM what do i have to wipe...???
There are too many options to wipe....
1. wipe data/factory rest
2. wipe catch partition
Under advanced
Wipe delvic catch ...
Which and all am i supposed to wipe ?
Please bare with me guys i'm at my witt's end here...T____T
I just want one CM 10 based rom working for me... That's all ...
Here's the thing mate, AlienRom works perfectly fine for me. Just flash over stock ICS and Not JB and select Use 2G network on settings. Give it another try , oh and I highly discourage MIUI, it may look pretty but it is lag as hell. Browser takes sooo long to load and so lag

Hey Racer X,
I was thinking about the same thing... Alien rom is the only rom where i encoutered absolutely "0" lag, Brilliant work there man thanks a lot.
Would it be possible to flash it directly on rooted 11.0.a.3.18 ICS because i'm not able to root ST26i_11.0.A.7.5_CE.ftf with any tutorial here...
SO far i have tried this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2071817
and the other option being flashing to stock 11.0.A.7.5 and using Unlockroot.exe
But windows won't even detect the exe file and Google chrome's calling it a malicious file and won't let me download it .
SO i have sort of hit a roadblock with 11.0.a.7.5
So i was hoping i can flash alien rom straight on rooted 11.0.a.3.18 ICS, which i rooted with this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2033114&highlight=st26i+root+ics
Omg...!!! I did it ... :d
OMG... I just went ahead and did it... this is sooo f****** AWWWWSOME...!!!
Now i have Alien rom with GSM WORKING !!!:good:
I didn't even go for 7.5 i just stuck with .18 and went to alien rom 4.1.2
BTW can i keep the cyanogenmod upates setting to weekly or should i keep it at manual/???
I don't want to loose the gms connection just coz it updated on its own ... ?
What do you think ?

[Completed] Galaxy Fame s6810L - Stuck in CWM after flashing a custom ROM

Hey!
First of all, this post will be too hard to write because of my English.
I had decided to improve the performance of my Fame a long time ago (I have to clarify that I'm a noob at flashing roms and doing related stuff). So I flashed Galaxy Fame - Stock deodexed and it worked perfect.
After a while my cell phone became slow again so I installed Cyanogenmod 12.1. I didn't like that rom due to the bugs and performance.
So I wiped the data/cache/dalvik and re-flashed the previous deodexed rom again.
What's the problem? It boots and stays in the "s6810L" screen for a few seconds, then reboots and stays in that screen again for a few seconds and THEN it shows the CWM recovery menu.
I haven't tried another rom yet, but I want to know why it didn't work this time... I really like the deodexed rom because it's so smooth and fast.
What am I doing wrong?
I'm sorry for my english again, thanks in advance, and regards!
Edit #1: I'm using this CWM
Hi !
When flashing roms a factory reset is recommended especially when flashing between 2 totally different based roms , cyanogen / stock
My advice is to use odin and revert to stock , don`t flash via recovery
Also , I can move this thread to the designated location if you continue to have problems and the solution I suggested doesn`t work , there may be more users with the same device.
Use the same thread you have linked above to get the firmware
Good luck and let me know !
