Flashing roms - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Could someone point out an up to date guide for flashing CleanRom 5.1? I did review the one link in Android Dev here but I keep seeing the warnings about flashing boot.img.
Just looking for solid step by step instructions. I also have Hasoon2000's toolkit. I successfully rooted but I'd like to ensure flashing the same way without doing something dumb.
Thanks and I apologize if I am coming off as lazy. I've done lots of research but just trying to cover all my bases.
Thanks,
Jon

1. Download ROM to sdcard.
2. Flash ROM in twrp.
No mater which hboot your on, cleanrom 5.1 and viperxl will flash boot.img for you

just to be safe and make 100% sure it will boot, do this:
1: extract boot.img from the zip and do fastboot flash boot boot.imgjto your phone
2: put the full zip onto your sd card
3: start up in recovery mode
4: select install, and select the cleanrom5.1.zip. Swipe to flash.
5: when it asks you if you want to install the boot.img, select NO (it says if you're unsure, choose YES. do NOT do this if you wanna be 100% sure itll boot the first go around.)
5a: for me, this is where AROMA usually freezes (happens about every other flash of the rom. no big deal, just hold down the power button till your phone shuts down and restart from step 3
6: choose the rest of your customizations
7: once its done flashing, select finish then Reboot Device from TWRP
hope you get it

Ok so with those particular roms I don't have to necessarily flash boot.img since its automatic? I think that's where my confusion is coming from. So I can't simply load it on my phone, go into recovery and flash CleanRom 5.1? Also, if I need to type that command, I can simply open a cmd window or use Hasoon's tool to open a cmd window?
I appreciate your replies and for not bugging out on me! Trying to learn the right way

No bro, cleanrom and viper will flash it for you!! No need for other steps!!!
If you try any other ROM, you'll have to use flashgui or use the fastboot steps above.

So that's it?! Just download go phone and enter recovery, swipe to flash and enjoy?! Glad I asked!!
What about the radio I've read about? Do I need to load that or is it inside the Rom zip? I forgot to mention I'm on 2.20 firmware and rooted of course.
Obviously I know to transfer a backup from my phone to my computer etc.
Thanks for replying so quickly.

I don't mess with radios... But yea the ROM part just download and flash through twrp.. theres no single place around me where I don't get service, so I leave radios alone.....

hey guys, just got my HTC ONE S S4.. i just rooted mine today and installed the TRICKDOID rom-- now am looking to flash this kernel.. but am not sure how... sorry--newbie
would anyone please give me a few steps on how to flash it? thanks and I have the CWM recovery
thanks again
EDIT: here is the kernel am trying to flash: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/27832-03-julekernel-virtuous-v06-09-extreme-linux-308/
thanks again!!
Please read before posting... this is posted all over.
Put the boot.img in the same PC folder that u have the fastboot.exe program in. Turn on USB debugging on your phone. Make sure drivers are installed and reboot phone into bootloader. Plug phone into PC and push the power button to go into fastboot. Open cmd window on PC. Navigate to the folder containing fastboot and the boot.img (ex: cd C:\Android\platform-tools)
Then type the following command in cmd window
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Reboot phone

Or you can simply flash it by using TWRP recovery instead of CWM recovery.

nice alright, ill try it
btw i noticed youre running the Axiom rom on your One S and i was wondering if you could clarify the install instructions
am confused about these:
"-Flash Boot.img via fastboot
-Install Zydroid Base
-Boot into Android"
if you could clarify a bit,it'd be great man, thanks!

First I recommend you install TWRP recovery. This will take away the need to fast boot flash boot.img separately. You can install TWRP by getting Beta Goo Manager app from play store and using it to install twrp.
Next you download Axiom S 1.5 and flash it. Go to Goo Manager find compatible roms, choose "itsmikeramsey" and you will see Axiom S 1.5 download and also "add ons" downloads.
Download rom zip and choose add on. I suggest an eqs battery % ics.zip. It will give you ICS blue theme. Then flash using Goo manager. Make sure rom zip gets flashed first.
They mention Zydroid base because the Axiom S 1.5 Mdj overclocked kernel has some bugs so just find Axiom stock kernel(same as Zydroid) and flash it also.
I hope this is clear enough. One thing you must do when learning to flash roms is to research as much as you can and follow steps. GL

[Q] I hope I didn't brick my phone

I'm new to android and really hope I didn't pooch my phone.
I tried installing Jelly Bean and now can't do much of anything. I can get into bootloader and load up team windows recovery (not sure what to do in there)
When I am in fastboot and try through a command prompt adb devices doesn't list the HTC One X (Rogers, Canada)
I really am not sure what to do. I have downloaded a ton of stuff nothing seems to make a difference (HTC drivers, img and zip files..) I think it boils down to getting some direction on what troubleshooting to do with the exact files I would need to use.
flash a rom in recovery ofcourse.
adb doesnt work in hboot only fastboot. your phone is fine. you need to copy the rom zips to your sdcard. then go to install inside recovery. you can mount your sdcard inside recovery also so you can copy stuff. you should still be able to reboot the system normal and have it boot fine. unlocking and flashing recovery doesnt wipe your phone.

So you flashed a .zip file, not knowing what it would do or what would happen? Nevertheless, a .zip file not for your device?
No, if you can get into fastboot your fine.... I would just download the correct "Evita" ruu, not endeavor. Run it, do some thorough research and try again......... ruus can be found in the compilation roll up stickied thread

Is there an RUU application?

Forget ruu. Flash twrp recovery if you haven't already, download viperXL in our dev section, fire up twrp, mount usb, copy viperXL over, unmount usb, install from zip, select viperXL. Zip, follow prompts, reboot, victory.
Oh then hit my thanks button...

[Q] Phone keeps rebooting

Finished the exploit: when into recovery and now all it does is come to the white HTC screen,and in red small print it says the following:
this build is for developmental purposes only
do not distribute outside of HTC without HTC's permission.
Failure to comply may lead to legal action.
then the phone shuts off, and 5 mins later comes on again...I can't access bootloader.
What did I do?
Thanks:
Update : got bootloader back but it says TAMPERED and UNLOCKED...it just said unlocked before. All I can access is TWRP; and it isn't recognizing the storage

I did the boot IMG with fast boot,it was stored where adb and all that other stuff is. Went into bootloader, had the zips on my storage on phone. Went into recovery, did factory reset...and now this where I'm at; it can't access storage; like nothing is there...except twrp.
Plug your phone into your computer anad from twrp select mounts and storage and select mount put your HTC one xl Rom on your phone. Flash your boot IMG and Rom. Someone correct me.if I'm wrong. I have not done this just quoting the 100 other posts.

Mount phone in twrp, and download a Rom on your computer. Make sure it's for onexl. Extract the Rom, move boot.img to where you have adb and fastboot. Fire up command promt, fastboot flash boot boot.img is the command. Rezip the Rom, transfer to sd card. Flash in twrp.

Do you want to put the boot.img back in the folder before rezipping it? I tried with the boot.img in but the ROM gets stuck in it's boot animation so I tried it leaving it out, but then I can't flash the ROM at all.
Leave the zip the way it is. Take boot.img out of it (but dont delete it from the zip)
Flash boot.img, then fire up TWRP and install the zip file.
First boot usually takes 5-10 minutes.
Correct. When you rezip the Rom, EXCLUDE the boot.img

well sir you're a gentleman and you certainly deserve a thank for this, unfortunately I'm already out for the day...LOL
maybe someone else can take care of this for me ?

[Q] I've made a huge mistake, is my HOX still salvageable?

Hello,
I just want to say that please don't say "you should have read instructions more carefully...etc" its too late for that. I'm just trying to see if its possible to get my HOX working again so its not a brick. So please, if you can help me, I will gladly donate to you.
I have a HTC ONE XL (AT&T). I saw a thread today on XDA saying 2.2 was able to be rooted, so I decide to root my HOX. It took a lot of courage, but I was able to root it and unlock the bootloader.
Everything was going great, I decided to flash CM10, the newest one: cm-10-20121025-EXPERIMENTAL-evita.zip. along with gapps-jb-20121011-signed.
First mistake: I did not backup
Recovery is TWRP v2.3.1.0
I wiped cache, dalvik cache, and system, then flashed CM10
Then i flashed GAPPS
I thought I had everything in the bag, rebooted it and let it do its thing. People say the first boot took long time (~5 mins) I gave it 10 mins. Nothing, its stuck on the boot loop.
Then I retried this 2 other times, same thing.
I panicked and accidentally hit factory reset, and managed to clear everything, both of the flashable files (CM10 and GAPPS) from my HOX, now all i can do is go into TWRP recovery. If i try to reboot into bootloader system or recovery it says "NO OS installed! Are you sure you wish to reboot?"
So please, can anyone help me, this was a very costly mistake, but I'm trying to fix it.
CLIFFS:
-Made mistake of not backing up
-Now only boots to TWRP, no flashable files.
First of all bro, you did everything right in the first place except flash the boot.img seperate using fastboot. That's why you bootlooped bc you had no kernel.
Second, don't worry lol. plug in phone to your computer and enter twrp, choose "mount". Get on your computer and download Rom of choice. Once downloaded, extract Rom and seperate the boot.img. rezip Rom. Transfer Rom onto phone.
fastboot boot.img, then flash the Rom through twrp. Then your golden

Hi inflatedtitan,
Thanks for replying, you are a lifesaver, i almost bought another phone... because i thought i was done for.
However, im not sure what you mean exactly as i have not done this flashing before. so i downloaded the rom cm10.
1. so i unizip the rom on my computer
2. copy rom onto phone
3. flash??
thanks please clarify thanks again.
ur a lifesaver.
EDIT: when i hit mount, there are 4 boxes, what do i check (i cant select SD card)? and when i hit mount, it shows up on my computer but asks me to format disk. should i do it?!
As you already factory reseted and lost everything, you should format as the damage is already done lol, it'll get your sdcard back right. But when you extract cm10 on your computer you'll see the boot.img in the folder. Move it to where you have adb and fastboot. THEN rezip Rom and transfer to your phone.

Yes exactly, then run fastboot flash boot boot.img
After that is done, open TWRP and run the zip file
Rom will have excluded boot.img . Try it out and see what happens as you recapped. I'm not so sure as your running fastboot through the xfactor program.. but try it out, worst case is you bootloop like last time. If that happens again, you know to download android SDK tools, adb and fastboot and reinstall HTC drivers and start over
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium
They are many simple tutorials for rooting but do not know why you guys having hard time. Ok here is
1) You got Android SDK from google + Platform-tools + Google USB Driver -
2) Only for windows - Download htc sync ( It will install necessary htc drivers) - Link
3) Just to check if htc drivers installed properly , open "C:\android-sdk\platform-tools" ( Or folder where adb and fastboot exists) then "Press shift + right click and select "Open command window here" ( open command prompt and cd "folder where adb and fastboot exists).
4) In command window type " adb devices" and see output - If you get output then htc drivers installed properly.
You can skip step 3 and step 4 - These steps are only for verification
5) Goto [ROOT] HTC One X AT&T 2.20 Firmware - X-Factor root exploit and follow the instructions there.
6) Once you successfully root your device using above exploit then goto - [How To] Flash Custom recovery and ROMS after 2.20 root complete the steps to flash custom recovery and if you want to flash ROMS
7) To unlock BOOT LOADER use this link - [INDEX] AT&T/ROGERS One X Resources Compilation Roll-Up , follow the instructions under " BOOTLOADER UNLOCK, SUPER CID, AND S-OFF"
You can also goto this link - [ROOT][2.20] One XL Bootloader unlock & Root guide By XsMagical - Very nice tutorial, if you find above links difficult to follow
Note* : During exploit or flashing recovery they talk about using fastboot commands, In order to execute them you need goto C:\android-sdk\platform-tools" ( Or folder where adb and fastboot exists) then "Press shift + right click and select "Open command window here" ( open command prompt and cd "folder where adb and fastboot exists) and then execute the commands ..

uhh guys so i did the whole fastboot thing, everything looked great. but when i try to go back to recovery, im stuck at the htc quietly brilliant

Sorry for being such a noob, i really appreciate your guyses help.
Try it a couple times, if that doesn't work reflash recovery.

Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium
you don't delete boot.img from the rom, leave the original zip untouched. just make sure you flash boot.img in fastboot though. whenever i flash something in fastboot i like to run "fastboot erase cache".
NEVER factory reset in bootloader, it will mess up your sdcard.
you should rewipe and reflash everything in twrp. also verify the md5 checksums of cm10 and gapps both the md5 sums are listed at their download locations.

yep that's another thing i've asked all the querying noobs to do, changing the op to [SOLVED] when it is but to no avail :crying:
sry guys it took very long, i followed all your instructions and finally fixed it last night. I went straight to sleep because of work. Thanks again for your help, sorry for late restponse:
my solution: I followed INFLATEDTITAN's instructions. double click the cm10 rom, then take out the boot.img, copy that to where your fastboot files are, SHIFT right click, select CMD (or open cmd and use cd to change directory to folder), then type what he said w/ fastboot, make sure your connected. Then i flashed the cm10 rom, the gapps, reboot, took a couple tries.
Anyways, it works great, so smooth.... on wifi.
I have stragiht talk, and I've been getting really crappy speeds for data, from 5Mbps to 0.16.... down, interestingly, upload has not changed ~1.2 mbps. does anyone have any insight? Why DL is so slow but UL is still the same?

Also I have a question on radios. From this thread: (click "this")
I have the latest cm10 nightly build, as I said in my previous post, I am on straight talk. While the radio is showing HSPA+, I'm getting edge speeds (0.16mbps) but good upload speed ~1.2mbps.
Can I use the AT&T 2.2 radio from this list? (near the bottom)
Radios for Latest CM10 versions (with radio in /system/etc/firmware)
I just rooted my phone from 2.2, and want to make sure I'm using the right one.

Sorry bro, can't flash radios and RILs being you have the newer hboot
Sounds like you're into aosp roms. But usually the newer sense Roms are just as amazing and usually are updated with the newer radio. However I'm using old hboot, so I can't confirm that if you flash a Rom, the included radio will also automatically flash. Can anyone reading help with the correct answer?

Thanks, so the only thing i can do at this point is to flash a original HTC ICS rom (basically where i started before root)?
Well like I say, I'm not even sure it'll install the new radio lol. So I'd sit tight till someone replies with the correct advice.

I'm in hpsa and that's about what I get too. I'll get a few tests that'll nail about 6 on download speed, sometimes I can't even get 1 lol. I wouldnt worry too much unless it gets super sluggish when you have full service

[Q] Reboot loop after JmzM4 custom kernel

Hello,
I recently unlocked my bootloader and installed the CWM recovery to install custom kernels for overclocking (my htc one mini is not rooted). So I went for the JmzM4_Kernel-09-4-13. And since I installed it I am in a F$%&/&%$ reboot loop. I already wiped the cache and dalvik cache twice but it doesn't help. I searched already for answers on google but I didn't find what needed, so I landed here.
Hope somebody can help me to get out of this reboot loop and get a normal smartphone again
Thank you for your attention
Here are the bootloader specs:
***Tampered***
***unlocked***
M4_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.21.0000
RADIO-1.23.40e.00.26
OpenDSP-v19.2.0268.0927
OS-2.12.161.2
eMMC-boot 1024MB
Nov 26 2013,22:09:21.0
Did you flash the boot.img using flashboot from the kernel zip? also are you using jelly bean 4.2.2? because that's what it was built for.
Also there are no options to over clock using this kernel...

Thank you for your reply :good:
Yes I did flash the boot.img with flashboot, but I have android 4.3 and sense 5.5 on it. Is that maybe the problem?
A friend of me said that if I flash an incompatible kernel on my device, it would be dead. Is that true? I don't think so because I still have acess to the bootloader and CWM recovery .
shouldn't brick your phone, but your gonna need to flash a kernel compatible with 4.3. There isn't one in this forum, but if you ask one of the rom devs on here really nicely they may provide a compatible kernel from one of their rom releases. Else your gonna have to re flash your rom..

And how do I find the original/stock kernel for htc one mini 4.3 ?
Can I install HTC one kernels or are the two phones completely different?
I already searched on the net for htc one mini kernels. There is almost nothing !!!!!

there are NO 4.3 kernels as of yet. I'm saying you need ask a dev to make you one,but I doubt they'll do it unless you ask really really nicely. Your most likely going to have to flash a whole rom..
AND NO HTC ONE AND HTC ONE MINI A VERY DIFFERENT. DO NOT USE ANY KERNEL UNLESS IT'S MADE FOR THE ONE MINI. OR YOU MAY BRICK YOUR PHONE.

ok, I think I will go for the second option: I will flash a rom.
So here my question: What kind of rom do I have to flash, to come out of the bootloop?
I am a beginner in this kind of thing so please explain it to me step by step.

Personally I would only recommend the one I am currently using, as I haven't tried any others except WWE Stock 4.2.2 by trigger, which is the base of what I'm using, which is Magio R3 with the JMZ Kernel. I used the guide below which worked without problems. BUT BEFORE YOU DO MAYBE MAKE A POST ABOUT CHANGING FROM 4.3 TO 4.2.2 JUST BECAUSE I AM NO EXPERT, AND I'M UNSURE IF THERE COULD BE ISSUES WITH THIS? THOUGH I THINK IT SHOULD BE FINE.
Else stick with the 4.3 Stock ROM by Trigger though this is untested by me. Also skip the kernel installation if using the 4.3 ROM.
THE GUIDE:
Ecstacy42 said:
Don't do it if you don't feel comfortable.
1. Unlock your bootloader here. Select "All Other Supported Models" and follow the instructions.
2. Download the Rom, Kernel, and a recovery, verify the MD5 checksums, and then copy the rom and kernel zips to your internal SD card. I'd recommend one of the WWE versions as they don't have a lot of the AT&T bloat.
3. Boot into the bootloader (it says how in the guide showing you how to unlock your bootloader)
4. Select fastboot, plug your phone into your computer.
5. Type "fastboot devices" to make sure it's connected, then type "fastboot flash recovery whateverrecoveryyouused.img".
6. Boot into recovery. Make a backup. Then wipe system, data, cache, and dalvik cache.
7. Reboot into fastboot, then type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" using the boot.img from the Rom you downloaded.
8. Reboot into recovery and install the rom zip using TWRP/ClockworkMod.
9. Reboot into fastboot and type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" using the boot.img from the kernel.
10. Reboot into recovery and flash the kernal zip.
11. Start up your phone, if you flashed a DeOdexed Rom it'll take a little while to boot up.
I'm not sure if you have to flash the boot.img from the rom, then flash it, then flash the boot.img from the kernel and then flash it, but it's best to follow the directions and avoid potentially causing problems.

ok thank you,
but when I have the rom for my htc one mini, how do I place it in the main storage ( as a zip ). It can boot properly and reboots before my computer can detect it.
And is this Magio r3 rom compatible with the htc on mini? On the website it is shown that it is for htc one XL. And it also says that the recovery has to be the TWRP recovery and I have the CWM recovery.
Thank you for your answer. :good:

Everything you need is here on the XDA, "HTC One mini" section. ONLY USE ROMS WHICH ARE SPECIFICALLY FOR THE "ONE MINI". NO OTHER. EVER.
Just use this one it's 4.3 stock. You flash it as a ZIP from either CWM or TWRP.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2575766
And read the OP!
Also once this is working. DON'T FLASH YOUR PHONE EVER AGAIN. YOU CLEARLY HAVEN'T READ UP ENOUGH AND DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR PHONE. No offense but do you really want a $500 paper weight?

I already tried to flash the whole zip file with fastboot, but the file is too big. the cmd says Failed(remote:data lenght is too large).
So how do I bring this rom to recovery from my computer?
Thank you for your answer.

But How do I flash my rom.zip? I cannot flash it from fastboot because it shows an error message in the cmd : Failed(remote: data length is too high). How do I get this $%&%&## file on my recovery or how do I flash it directly from my computer. I already searched the web on how do I do this. But no detailed or specific answer to my problem.
Please explain it to me step by step again :good:

You need to "push" the zip to your internal memory. Put your zip in your ADB fastboot folder on your computer. Then use command "adb push romname.zip /mnt/sdcard/". Then install the zip from cwm or twrp recovery. And flash the boot.img from zip with ADB fastboot...

I tried adb push but the cmd didn't reconize it. It says (from german, I try to translate it) : the order adb push is either wrong writen or it couldn't be found. So how do I use or reactivate adb push ? or maybe there is another way to push the file in the htc ( for example with a program ).
Thanks in advance
