What exactly do you think stock recovery is going to be able to do for you?
Stock is only worthwhile if you want to complete a OTA upgrade.
But by the sounds of it you are long past booting in to a stock ROM?
Flash a RUU?

The stock recovery might fix the problem that custom recovery is currently havin with updating partition details+another user elsewhere had fixed similar problem by flashing backnstock recovery then flashing custom recovery again. And yes i currently have cm10

I keep going into the clockworkmod but cant get out. Please I do not know what to do from here. Im in DYER need of help. Hope to hear from you all soon. Thanks.

Use toolkit to flash twrp recovery and you'll be fine.

I had already flashed the TWRP recovery. It keeps taking me to the recovery.
I think i might have deleted the stock kernal when I accidently flashed the recovery in the kernal section. Any other suggestions?

Just flash Rom from twrp, fastboot flash boot.img from zip and it should work.

I have the s4 tmobile us. So im trying to get the ics.

Just search for boot.img for ics. I'm sure its somewhere here on the forum. Then fastboot flash it with the all-in-one kit and then reboot phone.

Ok so i found the elemental kernal i think. I downloaded it. Do i extract it and just put the boot in the flash kernal section of the aio. Its the only file with boot.img I really dont want to mess this up more.

Elemental its for jb. Thatone won't work for you.

I couldnt find a stock one. I found the beastmode, i believe that is for ics. im exacting the file now.

Beastmode won't work, unless you already have a working boot.img Try, using kilns fusion ultimate kernel.

[Q] Trouble flashing Kernel

I want to flash a kernel for CM10 but it keeps either bootlooping or goes to "Android is upgrading...". I don't know what I am doing wrong but its always come to that. Am I doing something wrong? Can someone help me?

Is it cm 10 or cm 10.1? And which kernel is it?

Cm10 and its rohan's kernel.

just use [APP] Flash Image GUI - Flash Kernels and Recoveries from normal Android mode!
or flash the boot.img with fastboot then flash the zip in twrp for the modules, make sure to wipe cache and dalvik

Okay I will try that but I thought s-off made it so that you don't have to flash the boot.IMG. (I have s-off)

Reflashing boot IMG each time?

I have AOKP on my att HTC. I already flashed the boot IMG manually, if I want to try out CM10 do I have to flash the boot IMG of cm10 again? Also when updating the same ROM is this neccesary again?

If you are on hboot 1.14, yes you should flash the boot IMG every time you flash a new ROM. Not technically necessary for a ROM update but good to do just in case.
You can always just S-OFF though, then you don't need to worry about it.

QBking said on his video that getting S off can brick your phone so I am a little weary.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2

It is actually a very simple process. All I did was copy and paste the commands from the facepalm method. Worked like a charm. Makes flashing a whole lot easier.

The only issue i had while getting s-off was the phone being "offline" but a simple unplug and replug fixed that. It was a simple process overall
sent from my jellybammed one x

I would say the bigger risk is not understanding what s-off is actually doing. Because there's no security checks, if you don't know what you're doing you can easily brick flashing the wrong thing. If you're smart about it, take your time and know what it is your flashing, you shouldn't have any problems.

Thanks guys I am simply using the Flash GUI app its awesome because it flashes the boot IMG.

3.18 ota question

I have been having serious internet problems on my pc. I can never get ruu to finish downloading with out errors. I do have the ota zip file. I'm rooted, super cid and s-off. Is it safe to update that way or should I keep trying to get ruu to download?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

Man! Why do want to ask such hard questions? I know you can install zip from sd but I could not say how safe it would be.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

I was able to when I had S-OFF and the bootloader unlocked. I RUUed to 2.20, then I applied the OTA update from the stock recovery. My phone is still kicking. I tried to get everything back to stock after that, changed to stock CID, wrote the secure flag, and then locked my bootloader. I regret doing that now as I no longer have a root method on 3.18.

That's why I'm hesitant lol I guess ill keep trying for the ruu to download. Unless I can get a 100% positive answer... I tried to dl it with my phone and straight talk just throttled me at about 450 megs so I figured I'd stop before they killed my data connection again. They shut my data off last most for like a week and a half

I flashed the ota before the ruu was released, and I've been fine. You do have to have stock recovery in place, so you'll have to run the 2.20 ruu first. You can't flash the ota with a custom recovery.

No need to relock since you're S-OFF, you can flash OTA via Stock recovery. I'm not sure what will happen if you're flashing over a custom rom... I've only ever flashed an OTA over stock ROM myself.

Oh s**t I didn't even think about that... Good call. I may have had a disater and no choice but to post a oops I f'ed up my phone thread lol I just may hold off till I can get RUU downloaded correctly.
The ota and ruu I think are like 2-3 mb different in size (ota smaller I think) what could be missing? Adb folders maybe?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

Or... Would wiping everything including system in twrp then flashing stock recovery then flashing ota work?
Just off phone with HTC tech support, second teir I guess. The first guy transferred me. Told them I was rooted and all and s-off. Direct from them they told me the ota completly wipes the OS it just retains certain folders for contacts and personal info.
