[Q] Darkforest Stuck At Beats Logo?

Hi
I've just tried to do a install of the Darkforest custom rom - version 6.1.0.
Im running Hboot 1.27.1111 and am S-OFF I'm using the clockworkmod recovery
I've installed the update.zip via clockworkmod and the rom seems to have installed okay - i've done the superwipe etc too - but now when i turn the phone on it starts to load upto the beats logo and then doesn't get past that point?
Anyone have any answers for me please?

The only answer I've got is: I have tried flashing it last week, had the same problem, couldn't solve it and used another ROM.
Every ROM works fine on my device, but Darkforest didn't.

install 4ext recovery and try to flash it again.see if it works
best wishes

Guys, please read maybe the last 4-6 pages on the thread. Known issue and I've only had a sensation for 4 days now (and 2 of them don't count because I've been at work or out) meaning I haven't had a chance to debug it yet. Latest stable version is 6.6.0

I actually have similar problems
Hello. Actually, I'm having very similar problems as you. In my case, after trying all combinations of custom ROMs (dark forest included) firmwares, etc, I'd found that I'm unable to boot ANY sense-based rom, even though they all successfully install without any issues. I then attempted to install aosp and aokp based roms and to my surprise, it worked flawlessly! I know for a fact it's not a software or installation issue because I repeated each attempt on my sister's Sensation 4g and it had zero problems my particular phone experienced. As of right now, I'm totally stumped as to why this is happening, but I guess I'm lucky that I could still function running Touchcream 2.1 or CM9. Please try more combinations of roms and fw to see if you're having similar problems. If you do, then there's a possibility that we're having hardware issues.

Many thanks

Roms that work with T-Mobile htc one s

I started this to see if anyone can list a few ROMs that work with T-Mobiles htc one s. Please help by listing the ROM you are on and by saying if the ROM has any issues; such as WiFi not working for example.

I'll be first
Cm10 nightly- works excellent but it takes WiFi about 5 mins to kick in after I toggle it. If any one knows how to fix it please reply to this post

I've been using $droyd$'s AOKP 4.2.2 ROM and the only issue is that as of right now, you can't record in 1080p. Other than that, its very smooth and fast.
Also if you were unaware before, wifi-calling doesn't work on any jelly bean rom.
Good luck!

WIFI issues are a nuance of this phone and the tmobile seems to be the most affected - it's different for each access point, user, phone, rom and firmware. In short you'll have to try it.
My tmobile worked with wifi on CM10 and CM10.1, it would not work with Viper until I downgraded my hboot (partial s-off enables some firmware write access) and flashed my wifi firmware. It get's interesting - I then put the old firmware back and the wifi still worked!!
Did you see the S-OFF thread? This will enable you to flash the radio firmware which will solve any problems.
Remember your WIFI channels - different countries use different range of channels and some access points 'helpfull' set the channel automaticlly. I have many devices that cannot cope with channel12.

Not trying to be a buzz kill here, but what's the purpose of this thread? I mean the Dev section is right over there, and the first page is flowing with fully working or close to fully working new ROMS.
Just saying.

I see what your saying. But honestly when you go through the a certain ROMs thread, they never say how WiFi doesn't work on T-Mobile phones. Or any of the problems Tmobiles users face.And who wants to go through a thread having to look for that one specific detail about a ROM whether or not to see if WiFi works. Also when looking through these ROM threads you find people that just like to say thank you (which there is nothing wrong with) that fill up the pages, making it harder to know if everything in that ROM is really going to work on your tmobile HTC one s, because people do search through comments to see what the users say. Therefore I made this thread for all T-Mobile users who want to post and say whether their ROM they are using works perfectly or if they are experiencing problems. And who wants to go through the process of flashing a new ROM without even knowing whether something like WiFi works. So yeah that's why i made this thread

I get that, ROM posts can be a little all over the place sometimes. I didn't understand at first; I'm one of the few T-Mo users with pretty much no problems. It also doesn't help that the ROM database that some guy did in the Dev section hasn't been updated for some time.

Thankyou

Ok thank you. Now i think im going to go Flash that rom. And also did you do anything specific to get your wifi working. and what Hboot are you on

If you are S-ON and have high HBOOT and want a Sense-based ROM with working WiFi, you were looking at TrickDroid 7 (TMOUS based), Unknown Retribution, and I think one more (Energy Blue, IIRC) that were based on recent updates. Since they were all based on the TMOUS ROM, everything should work without doing anything super special, including WiFi-calling. Virtuous Ville+ also had working WiFi, but no WiFi-calling. Recent CM 10.1 nightlies are working really well. At least, those are the ROMs I've used.

Wait are you saying that Recent cm10.1 nightlies have wifi working on our device. and by wifi working i mean it automatically turns on, and not just hangs and turns on later .

I haven't had any WiFi hangs.

I just started using Liquid Smooth. Pretty nice IMO. The only issues I've notcied were a bluetooth hang that fixed after a reboot, and Voice search keeps crashing.

Right now I'm on Viper 2.1.0 with the full firmware from the 3.16 WWE OTA -- I only made that jump because S-OFF makes it easy to switch without having to downgrade HBOOT. So HBOOT is 2.15 and Radio is 1.11.50.05.28. But I've just started using that and can't give you much in the way of impressions on WiFi stability yet. Just flashed it last night and didn't have any WiFi problems downloading my apps last night or weather checks this morning.
Before that I was using a recent CM 10.1 nightly on the TMOUS 2.35.531.10 firmware. So HBOOT 1.14 and 1.11t. I ran that firmware combination from shortly after its release until flashing Viper. ROMs in use were either CM 10.1 nightlies or Unknown Retribution (TMOUS 2.35 based).

noob question- What do you mean by TMOUS 2.35 based. And how does that affect the cm10.1 nightly

I mean ROMs that were built using T-Mobile US's 2.35 ROM as a base. Other Sense-based ROMs, like Viper, start with different ROMs as a base. The different Sense bases are part of the reason people run into WiFi problems when using ROMs originally created for other regions.
CM 10.1 has an entirely different heritage so it has its own ways of dealing with those issues.

I'm on hboot 1.09 and the wi-fi worked right from the start.
p.s. sorry for the slow reply

Gotta Tell you the Viper 2.1.0 rocks...its fast awesome battery life and its got working wifi...not wifi calling but just wifi in general...it honestly is the best sense ROM...I have tried CM 10, Virtuous Ville+, P.A.C Man and even the ICS ROMs and I gotta say the Venom team makes an awesome product...:laugh:

"[rom][S4][15FEB]Updated_4.2.2_AOKP-Working-video" seems to work great with TMOUS hboot 1.14, added the new camera (in the post) with photosphere, The only little bug I found is the bluetooth doesn't list station info on my car stereo. I saw a tearing fix using bubba kernel, but I'm just living with it for now. Everything else seems to work great!

I just flashed the LiquidSmooth JB ROM from Droyd and this thing is amazing.. Coming from a rooted Stock Sense there really is no comparison, I might give Viper a try but this is clearly gonna be my daily driver

system glitches on 4.2.2 rom

Maybe I missed the post in the Dev thread... but I still have system glitches when I use Albinoman's 4.2.2 rom. By gliches I mean flashing system menus and or the things are not visible unless the screen is touched. I am performing a full format before i install the rom. I don't have a cat log for you

Did you try other ROMs to see whether or not the glitches persisted? If the glitches are still there then I would suspect it's a hardware issue (digitizer maybe?) But if the problem goes away, I don't really know what's going on. I would try another 4.2 jellybean ROM for the test. If it still persists, I would try an ruu to ultimately decide if some part of your hardware has malfunctions...

Me too, Some ROm I've tried as SuperXE ROM 4.2.2, 4.2.2 ROM Albinoman, Swagger ROM, give me these flashing menus...
But, on PACMAN ROM, on Wizard ROM, on AVATAR ROM i have not.
Try another ROm You'll see if that's Hardware or Datas problems.
Me i don't know... Changing Kernel make no change:crying::crying: So i don't know where is the problem

The only other ROM I use is Bruce's 4.1.2. It is great, no errors or problems at all! I should be happy with it....but I am update junky.
The problem began when when the Dev made a kernel change a few months back. He immediately released a updated kernel. but it didn't work for me and all the updates I've tried has the issue persisting

If the kernel's the problem, I would recommend sultan's kernel to try it out.

If you do find a solution, could you post it or PM please?

Yea, I think you would have to flash sultan kernel every time you update the ROM. Unless there's a way someone else knows that I don't know...

[Help] HTC One X Mod Zoe camera focus problem

Hello everyone.
Sorry I'm new to the forum, so I can't post in Dev thread.
I'm on Rogers, One X, Hboot 2.14, SuperCID, S-on, CleanROM 7.0.P1, Beastmode 4 (test2) kernel and Zoe mod.
Everything seems to working great, the only thing that is kinda frustrating is camera focus (both autofocus and manual). It seems to be focusing good on far objects, but all the closeups, on all the modes are blurry.
Did anyone else had this problem ? maybe there is a solution.. Zoe feature is very cool and going back to stock camera up is sad.
Would appreciate suggestions and possible solutions. Unfortunately I'm not a dev and all I can really do is follow steps.
Thank you in advance.

You need to flash Beastmode 3.5 version kernel, you're on the first test release. Flash 3.5 and your camera will focus perfectly.

Thanks for your reply.
Just tried flashing 3.5. First reboot, started, no signal, no wifi, same focus problem. Next reboot it started in boot loop.

The kernel didn't take then. Go to settings > about > software > more and post the kernel version.

I restored from backup so I can get the phone running.

If the kernel flash works it should look like this.

Sorry, totally forgot about the screenshot.

So you're on 3.5 now and you're still having issues?
Sent from my Evita

That is so strange, I flashed the kernel several times, it didn't boot, so I restored from backup, last time I restored, my phone it does look it has 3.5 and the camera started working, so many, many thanks, will also click the thank you btn.
But now wifi is broken and I'm having some strange issues rooting the phone so I cant replace the wifi file, but this probably will be another thread.
Thanks again :good:

Flashing any custom kernel = Crazy phone

Hi. It's my first post here, so i couldn't put this post in a specific thread related to Kernels i have flashed.
I have S-Off, SuperCID and CM11 on my One S atm. I updated today from Maximus ROM ( and downgraded HBoot to 2.15 via RUU). I noticed that my phone doesnt seem compatible to custom kernels, as each time i flash a custom kernel my phone goes into bootloops or remains stuck at boot screen. When it manages to turn on, i get a lot of notifications that some apps or services have closed, making my phone unusable.
When i was on Maximus, solution was reverting to stock kernel.
What am i doing wrong or why is it only happening to me?

AFAIK there isn't any custom kernel compatible with Cm11 atm. Because with last 2 updates Cm11 had a lot of changes and custom kernels are not compatible with it. You should use stock cm kernel for now. I guess custom kernels will be updated in a few days

I don't think it's necessarily related to CM11 as i had this problem while running Maximus HD as well.

So even after following droyd instructions regarding a complete wipe, this is not solved. Apparently there is a problem with my phone.
If anyone knows deeper stuff regarding this or may be able to tell me what to try, I would be grateful.
