If you have installed the German version of JB rom and want to switch back to the stock ICS rom for some reason or to recieve the OTA update.
Please remember you can install the ICS rom on top of JB rom the same way you installed the JB Rom but your tablet will not boot and it will get stuck at the Samsung logo
To get it to work what you need to to is press power and volume down key and boot into recovery mode and do a complete reset of the device and then you can reboot and it will work like a charm as before.
Since you are doing a reset and format all you application, system data and data on internal card will be wiped so make sure that you have taken a backup.

I have a mytouch 3g that i rooted a while ago and i install new rom's on it once a while.. yesterday i installed enomther's ADP rom that did not work out because the screen goes black after the second boot screen! i can still press HOME + POWER to go to Anom_Ra's Recovery... i installed the US version (not adp) on my phone and it still goes black..
is it bricked?
please help - how do i fix it?
did you make a nandroid backup? if not try to go into fastboot by turning off your phone, plugging it in and pressing back+power. then try flashing a new rom using fastboot commands. (fastboot flash xxxx...)
No your phone isn't bricked. All you need is a computer just mount your phone through the ra recovery and just download another Rom on to your sd card and flash
You might also want to try flashing again after a full wipe including dalvik, ext, battery, and rotation settings.
ok i did that- full wipe and install enomther's ROM again for TMO-US only... but magically, my root dissappeared... i dont have a super user application and im being prompted for an OTA update.... i didnt use a goldcard to root my phone so idk wat happened..
but how do i get my root back????
It sounds like you only flashed the base. What files did you flash?
i flashed the rooted base and the expansion files.. and then a theme...
do i do it all over again??
Sounds like you rebooted in between the base and ROM. You'll have to re-root/downgrade/whatever.
i dont remember how i did it last time... so can you point me in the direction that does NOT use a gold card..
i can still use my Amon_Ra's Recovery btw....
got the phone yesterday, then installed the OTA update , then when i got back home i unlocked the bootloader from htcdev site.Then went to fastboot and flashed the cwm recovery touch,installed the su libs, did a backup ,factory reset and wipe cache, installed cm 10.0 and gapps , after restart it was unable to boot.now i know this is because of s-on.So i restored the backup and then installed goo manager from play store and flashed twrp recovery in order to try cm 10.1 with its aroma installer.during the installation of cm 10.1 i choose the newest tmo radio and after that i installed the htcdumlock and then THIS IS WHERE THE THINGS WENT WRONG i choose one of the other options in twrp i think restore recovery and then the option on the right side on the screen but it didn't able to finish it so i restarted the phone and now it stays on the the red warning text , unless i install boot.img from MaximusM fastboot toolkit or something witch gives me the option to choose recovery from fastboot witch actually somehow boots the ROM. forgot to mention that i had problems with the sd card mounting under twrp after i flashed cm 10.1 so i had to revert back and then between stock recovery witch actually makes the phone to boot in the stock rom and the other two custom recovery`s
so i have downloaded the tmo ruu and before im trying to relock the device i just want to ask am i on the right way with this??
Its OK i figured it out
Every since I went to a 4.2 AOSP rom (PAC-Man to be exact) I've been having random reboots with all the roms I try. I had to factory reset and ODIN to get my phone back working. The previous rom I was on which was Axis, had a random reboot and now it just constantly bootloops. Can anybody please tell me why this is happening?
Put another rom on your external card and flash in CW recovery or go flash a backup.
Are you on 4.2 or 4.1.2 rom? and what rom are you currently on thats experiencing the boot loops?

hi everyone, good to finally sign up after being a long time reader here, unfortunately I have a problem.
My htc one s is rooted and I am running twrp and wanted to install the latest cm nightly so I downloaded it, googled instructions and used these instructions from a website.
Steps to Install Android 5.0.2 Lollipop on HTC One S via Official CyanogenMod 12 Nightly ROM
Boot into Recovery mode via adb or hardware buttons or use the QuickBoot app if your device is rooted.
In recovery mode, back up data on your current ROM. If using TWRP, select Backup and perform a Swipe to Back Up from the bottom of the screen.
Then select Wipe and do a Swipe to Factory Reset from the bottom of the screen.
Return to the main menu of TWRP recovery and select Install (if using CWM then choose Install Zip from SDcard.
Browse to the file where you saved the CM12 ROM zip file, select it and Swipe to Confirm Flash on the bottom of the screen. Now, wait until the flashing process completes.
After the ROM is flashed, repeat step 8 to flash the Gapps package as well.
Once both the files are flashed, return to recovery's Main menu and select Reboot > System.
I did all that and it installed fine, however, when I restarted the phone, it showed the htc logo then it just went black so I had to go back into twrp.
Instead I changed my mind and tried to install 4.1.1. jelly bean (since I needed to update anyways and couldn't because I'm running twrp and in that whole process I ended up deleting the version of jellybean and basically my phone has no jellybean or lollipop installed at all so my only option is going back into twrp.
After that, I read that my phone has to be S-off so I looked up instructions on how to install it (I'm on a mac) and apparently I'm supposed to flash the boot.img (kernel) via fast boot but in order to do that you need to have jellybean or some kind of rom running to have debugging mode on and I don't so basically this is where I'm stuck.
My apologies for the lengthy explanation but if anyone knows what to do from here that would be amazing thanks.
