if i was you i would try do a full wipe and then run an ruu, just to give yourself a fresh install. then place a custom recovery onto the phone again and install your rom of choice. if its still lagging then i dont know what it could be:/

yea it does.as i see you are S-OFF so you do not need to flash the boot.img manually but give it a try to see if it works.if it is not then from recovery do format all partition(except sd card)and flash the rom again.best wishes

it does, but since you are s-off you can just reflash the revolutionary/ jupuntobear hboots to have fastboot enabled ect

okay iv'e done all that installed RUU wiped everything etc install rom and installed kernel and still takes the same amount of time to start up so wiped again and left it with the kernel that came with the rom and it starts up much faster not sure why no kernel works properly with this rom.

I know it sounds silly but I've had a similar problem in the past but it was all because I forgot to format the Partitions, dalvik cache from the recovery menu etc. Maybe try that if you haven't already. Hope it helps

Can I install CyanogenMod 10 with TWRP?

Hi,
I have currently 4.5 CleanRom, and I used TWRP to install it, but I want Jellybean on my phone, can I just use TWRP to install CyanogenMod 10 with it? or do I need another installer of roms like CWM Recovery?
thanks.

of course you can, but if you're on a newer Hboot, you will need to boot the rom through fast boot with boot.img
but of course.

I already have TWRP installed and I know how to access it on fastboot, the only reason I asked why is because I have seen some rooms not working properly with CWM Recovery, so I didnt know if there was any problem the other way around with roms like Cyanogen.
Thanks!
your good to go with twrp, i recommend updating to twrp 2.3.1.0
Will the CM nightlies flash normally on the old hboot?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
they should but if you have any problems go into bootloader and run this command "fastboot erase cache"
are you using twrp 2.3.1.0?

try this.
1.) Download the 10/27 build
2.) get the boot.img from this build
3.) wipe cach/dalvik and system
4.) install 11/2 nightly
5.) flash the 10/27 boot.img
6.) reboot
This worked for me, something with the 11/2 and 11/1 boot.img was keeping it from booting.
Good luck

I would only recommend TWRP with CM10, or any other ROM.
Problems with CMW are due to the fact that it never officially supported our device, and was just a port. TWRP has no such issues.

[Q] Boot loops after flashing ANY rom

I have S3 right here and I tried flashing Trickdroid ICS, JB as well as JellyBean Official TWRP zip.
It is S-ON, so after flashing the zip, I go to fastboot and flash boot.img.
I did it already 2-3 times with every rom, but every time I get boot loop. Phone restarts as soon as the first HTC logo disappears.
What is wrong with that?
Do you have the latest TWRP 2.4.1.0 ? (did you try reflashing your recovery?)
What android did you have before unlocking your bootloader? 4.0.3 or 4.0.4?
(and don`t panic If nothing works there is always a solution by relocking your phone and flash the ruu for your phone from here)

What's was you on before flashing a custom rom? because just a guess but I think it was 4.0.3 if that is so then try TrickDroid for S3 and get v3 which is 4.0.3 so should work.
It was stock, but I didn't check the version before flashing.
So, TD 3.0, then TD 5.0 and it will work?
By the way, what is better? TD 5.0 or JellyBean Official TWRP?

No only v3 but if you can get an RUU thats more up to date then do that and the v4/5 should work.
So you didn't install a custom kernal before

Em what he said he did.
You cannot flash S4 roms with an S3 phone, have you made sure that the Roms you flash are specifically assigned for S3? Cuz most are S4
Thanks, guys. That was HBOOT problem. I flashed latest RUU and then I was able to use JB roms.
I am terribly sorry to bump this thread but it is EXACTLY what I need. I read through it and am slightly confused with what you guys said.
Here's my situation:
I have a HTC Evo 3D and have tried running multiple ROMs and on every ROM I run into a boot loop. I use TWRP 2.2.0 and boot that onto my phone using the code "Fastboot boot twrp-shooter.img", then from there I go into TWRP and add the ROM to the root of my SDcard. Then I use TWRP to wipe my cache, delvik cache, system, and do a factory reset. Then I go to install from SDcard and install my desired ROM that I am trying. It is successful and when I reboot it shows the HTC logo, then the loading screen for the ROM, then it goes black, then back to the HTC logo and it continues to loop the same booting sequence over and over.
Am I doing something wrong? Is there something different that I should use or do?
I've been trying to figure out this issue for more than 36 hours and I am borderline psycho right now, I really need answers!

1. check if you are s-on or s-off. If you are s-on, you will also need to flash the kernel (boot.img) from a computer (after you flash the zip)
2. make sure your rom is compatible with your phone

I already know that I am s-on, and that all I need is the RUU because all I want is to get right the hell back to stock. The problem is that I can't find a RUU that is compatible with my phone!! Your help searching for one would be amazing!!

[Q] Changing Stock kernels

Hi,
I have managed to put on a kernel that's not working. Is there a way to revert back to the original kernel? I do have a nandroid backup, but re-installing that didn't put on the old kernel.
I am using Liquidsmooth ROM. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
if you can boot into the rom use flashimagegui, if not do the normal fastboot the boot.img then do it again with flashimagegui to get the modules.
what kernel did you try to flash? the only kernel that will work with new liquidsmooth is cm10.1_vz-oc-linaro.3.zip. it contains modules, if you aren't s-off then you need to flash boot.img in fastboot then flash again in recovery for the modules.

I did exactly that, presuming that it was working... But I have been facing issues. The phone restarts every once in a while and I have managed to get to this condition after multiple wipes and restoring a backup. Anyways I don't know what the issue is I was just wondering how to revert back to the original kernel.
im running Liquid-JB-v2.1-RC2-evita.zip and cm10.1_vz-oc-linaro.3.zip. there seem to be some general issues with the rom that present as basically glitching and gets worse overtime atleast for me. im pretty sure it isnt related to the kernel. but to revert kernel just load the liquidsmooth zip into flashimagegui and itll pull the needed files, let it wipe cache and dalvik then reboot.

also new stable build of liquidsmooth just got released. you should flash it. imma flash it with a clean full wipe. but you should s-off first so you dont have to flash boot.img separately every rom.

Ya, I saw the new version wanted to try that which is why I wanted to got to the old kernel version. I had tried installing it with the linaro kernel but it gets stuck on the boot screen.
Update: - I installed the flash gui image, then extracted and installed the kernel , factory reset the phone, then installed the latest liquid smooth build. But it is still not going ahead of the boot animation.
Update 3 :- Got the old kernel back. Did a restore. Working fine now . But still for some reason I cannot install the new ROM yet.

you need everything. you don't need to extract the kernel. just load the whole zip file.

I did load the full file and the flash gui image extracted the kernel. The thing is I have the kernel now, but still I can't seem to be able to install the new version of the LiquidSmooth build. I am doing a nandroid backup of this thing and try installing it again.
well new liquidsmooth is nice, im using cwm now as recovery since ive had tons of issues with twrp since version 2.2.2.0

Android Revolution HD 7.3 problem.

Hello.
I've got problem with installing ROM Android Revolution HD 7.3. I bought Sensation, it's rooted, S-OFF, bootloader is unlocked, 4EXT Recovery Touch, I've flashed Universal Firmware 3.33. I done wipe data and wipe cache, flashed ROM but after reebot it's stuck on Beats logo. Nothings happened. I also tried do full wipe by superwipe script for Sensation, but that doesn't help. It still stucks on Beats logo. I aslo tried to flash boot.img via flashboot and cmd command. I unziped ROM file, found boot.img file for kernel which I want to install (faux) and flash it via fastboot. Then install ROM via installer included into ROM. After that it doesn't work either.
Can someone help me? I manage to flash different ROM: CM11 with ION and 3.0 kernel by Sultan, but i want to try Android Revolution HD. Maybe my battery will live longer
I appreciate any help.
how long did you wait on beats audio logo? because first boot up takes time
Couple of minutes. No longer then 10, for sure. You think I should wait longer?

Ok. Maybe someone else have a solution.
By the way, I see you've got a ViperS 5.1.0 ROM. Could you tell me how it's works? Especially the battery lifespan.

For me is great , but you have to try it yourself
for ARHD 7.3 ROM if it has in aroma installer to choose a kernel try with the stock one and see if it boots
make a full wipe from recovery before flashing the rom
I've already tried every one of 3 included. But I will try do it again now and wait for longer on Beats logo.
