You have to give more information for someone to help.

I know I'm still new but...
Did you do a data wipe? What rom were you using earlier? Did you have a nandroid backup? And what roms are you trying to switch to (I know that the newest Android Revolution had a problem with its files, patched now though)?

Ok this is what happened so far. I went back to the original new update stock. I used the hack kit and did the root. I installed RCMix and it was working and I made a backup. I tried to install ultimate Droid and phoenix evolution and it will take me to clockwork and delete the old files and install the new ones . It will reboot but stay on the HTC white screen.

Boot into recovery via rom manager or press volume down+power and hold,and reboot to recovery via hboot. Now go to mounts and formats I believe and format data,catche, system and then go back and flash your rom. I had same issue till I formatted my system. You don't lose root or SD data. Give it a try and let me know how it goes

Thanks Matt that worked . Idk why it did that though

Well there's data files and configurations that are leftover from the previous rom,and when its still there the newer files mix with the older ones (that aren't the same) and causes bootloops 95% of the time. So just by doing a data wipe,it still doesn't clean it throughly. Glad I can help.

Data wipes
So a data wipe doesn't remove all the old info/files? I'm currently getting a "System UID's conflict". Should I format the data/cache/system and reflash to resolve or just try a data wipe again?

Well usually it does by I've had issues after a wipe. Factory reset and clearing dalvik and catche sometimes doesn't do it for me. So u can formal system,catche, data and then reflash the rom. BUT before even attemping to flash the rom,make sure the md5 matches up so u didn't end up with a bad download. If the md5 matches with what the op provides,or search the market for the program (afv something) and check it. Then if its matching,then format the partitions,then flash.

sometimes if you are dl-ing the rom from your phones browser it doesn't dl it completly either. had that happen twice.

I hear there is a bug in Rom manager and it doesn't properly wipe data and cache. Easy way past the problem is to wipe it manually in recovery.

[Q] Double Apps?

So recently I had to use a CWM backup because I had soft bricked my phone...after doing so I realized that I had 2 of some apps in the drawer. Both seem to be working fine but I was wondering if there was a way to get rid of them as they just look annoying to me lol, its only the Market, Reader and System apps that seemed to have doubled

Try doing a full wipe including dalvik cache and reinstall the backup

Reboot your phone and they should go away.

Yeah I did that twice after the second one it worked

Happened to me once. That is how I knew a reboot fixed it.

[Q] HTC Inspire issue with rebooting itself and Mic issue

Hi Every one,
I'm new here, I have a HTC Inspire 4G which I have root it and now I installed Cyanogenmod 2.3.4, but I have couple of issues with this Rom, I'm wondering if any one else having the same issue or not.
1. some times it shut down itself without any notice and when I turn it back on, while is in process of mounting the SD card, it shut down itself again and some times I have to do this 3-4 times to turn it back on.
2. people are telling me that they can't hear me and it seems that my Mic is shuting down.
3. while I'm in good coverage area suddenly it looses all the signal and I have call drop.
I don't think that I can send it to HTC as is rooted and warranty is voided.
any help is appreciated.

A few questions for you:
1. What root process did you use?
2. What cyanogen are you using? The rc1 or a nightly?
3. Did you wipe before you flashed cm?
4. Did you install a custom kernel?
5. Did you flash anything in conjuction with the rom?
My suggestion would be to redownload the rom and check the md5 checksum to be sure it was a good download. Then back up your Apps with titanium backup. Do a nandroid, then a complete wipe
And reflash the rom. After the phone is fully rebooted, reboot again and see if problems are still there. Don't flash anything but the rom until you have rebooted twice.

Im using RC1, download it from clockworkmod

Try booting into recovery. Wipe and then flash fro? There instead of going through rom manager.

Random freezes!

Hello everyone I'm new to this so here goes. Arhd 6.1.5 I would randomly get freezes ever so often I ignored however because I saw 6.2..I downloaded 6.2 and I super wiped. And flashed the correct radio. But I am still getting random freezes forcing me to pull battery. The freezes usually happen when I lock my screen and go to unlock it. The 4 capacitive buttons light up then It freezes. I don't understand why I keep getting freezes. Starting to happen more often now with 6.2 also I tried turning my CPU settings Down but still no help.

When you say you superwiped before install do you also wipe data, cache, dalvik cache and battery stats(just because lol)...do you also restore any data and/apps with tibu

I wiped everything since I had problems with this rom at version 6.1.5 so i went ahead and wiped everything and downloaded all my stuff again to see if this helped, but it did not work. I don't use titanium backup. I figured just wiping everything and redownloading all my stuff would work, I did have a backup though just in case it didnt work, so I restored that after I saw I still got freezes.

Have you tried other roms or kernels? I'd suggest Coredroid. I've tried several others and find it to be the most stable.

are you OCing or UVing? Have you changed radios/kernels recently? I know when I UVing too much my phone loves to freeze. I would say try a ROM that doesn't OC out of the gate as believe ARHD has there rom set to 1.2 I think? I know Bindroid keeps theres at about stock and is extremely stable.

i have a similar problem. can I set the cpu back to stock level on ARHD using OCDaemon?

AOKP 4.0.4 v1.2

I have one app that doesn't work and won't reinstall with this version. Anyone else having that problem?

Update: I restored my backup of v1.1. The same app I had problems with on v1.2 doesn't work anymore on 1.1. I tried fixing permissions. Not the greatest idea in the world. Boot loop after reboot. So I'm currently restoring again to 1.1. I'm not sure what to do now.

I got the Xoom back up and running. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but I get an error. It says Package file is invalid. Does anyone know hat that means and if there is something I can do fix it?
Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk

I tried installing other apps, but they gave me that same error. I restored an earlier backup of v1.1 and everything seems to be working again.

Have you tried doing a full wipe? Also, are you trying to install these apps from "Google Play" (ugh. i hated typing that) or are you installing from internal/external media? I would try a full wipe, maybe not only from recovery, but also from fastboot. Fastboot wipes > CWM wipes (IMHO). Also, I would avoid doing TiBackup restores between largely variant versions of ROM's.
