Do you think the reason was the new Frimware(Hboot)?

You musst look in the Rom.ZIP and Check that there is an Boot.img ... I had the Same Problem because the Rom was for two devices and there was an Kernel folder with two Boot.img for Sensation and EVO 3D. Try to install opensensation this Rom works

Here's the fix:
1) Have Bootmanager installed.
2) Reboot into recovery and backup your current ROM.
3) In recovery, wipe your phone.
4) Install the ROM you want to have in boot manager.
5) Boot it once.
6) Reboot in recovery and backup your installed ROM again.
7) Restore your previous ROM using recovery
8) Boot into your ROM and load Boot Manager
9) Find an empty slot, click Manage Slot and click "Restore Nandroid"
10) Pick the ROM you backed up before from /clockworkmod/Backups
Done
It's a PITA, but it's the only way i could install ROM's such as the new Sense 4 ports.
Press Thanks if it helped.

Disable SU logging
I used to have the same problem until i disabled su logging in the phone's rom.

You install the Rom first.
By apps, you probably mean Gapps (Google apps).
What you install first of Gapps or Kernel doesnt matter. But Rom comes first offcourse.

No reboots are required in between...

Help switching back to stock from CM9?

Hi. I'm sort of still a newb to android stuff. This tablet is my 2nd android and I managed to get CM9 on here, after installing some weird recovery through goo manager (other methods of getting Clockwork weren't working for me) I liked the stock from a lot better however, and I would like to switch back. Unfortunately I don't have a backup. I've done a search and haven't found anything. Could someone help me out with this seemingly easy problem?
Sent from my LG-P930 using xda premium

just dl the stock you need.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1697227
extract the zip one time. You have another zip than. Place it on your internal sd.
Go to recovery (must be CWM) and flash the zip:
install zip than choose zip, than find the zip on your sd. than scroll down the no´s till you see a yes and choose this option.
If you dont have CWM recovery installed, take a look here and follow the video guide for fastboot to install CWM again.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27745605&postcount=29

So I need cwm? I can't use the recovery that I got from goo manager?
Sent from my LG-P930 using xda premium

You should go to asus webpage and download the latest firmware that is for your model. Go to settings on your device and at the latest tab see what version of firmware you have. You are looking for US or WW or another. Then go to asus site at download section and download the correct update that suits u. Unzip it once at the main catalog of the tf300 storage and reboot your machine to recovery (turn off and then turn on by pushing volume down and power until u see some message at the top of the screen. Then release the 2 buttons and push volume down and you will be at recovery menu. There choose wipe data/ factory reset and wipe dalvik cache and choose install zip, choose the zip that u previously unzip to your device and confirm to install it. When it is done after about 3 minutes reboot and u are at the latest stock firmware.

Yes you need cwm. For some reason team win recovery won't flash the stock firmware. It's nice and continues to get updates but they don't have our device. It will eventually get ironed out but for now cwm is needed to return to stock. At least that's how it is on my device and some others here on xda.

[ROM][CM7] Defy Pro XT560

This is a mostly functional CM7 build for the Motorola Defy Pro XT560. There is a little lag when recording high quality videos, but, everything else should be functional. Use the instructions below for installing. If you run into any issues you can always use one of the SBF files from this thread to recover. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2520124
Use at your own risk. Please back up any important data before installing.
1. Root phone
2. Extract the attached zip and run the Bootmenu installer (BootInstall.bat) with the phone connected..
3. Reboot into stock recovery and clear cache/data (backup anything wanted first).
4. Reboot normally from recovery, this will take you into CWM.
5. In CWM select recovery/custom recovery.
6. Select install zip from sd card then choose zip from sd card and select and install the xt560_cm7.zip
7. Select choose zip and install gapps.
8. Select back and reboot system.
The rom can be downloaded from http://www.sendspace.com/file/gakl1i

The button of the volume (+) is had to me broken. It fixes so soon it, will install this ROM.
exists some way to enter boot recovery without pressing the three buttons at the same time?

Awesome to see this phone get some love. Any reason I should try this rom over a de-bloated, rooted stock rom? Id personally rather get a newer android version unless cm7 offers a lot of benefit over stock.
Thanks for all the hard work!

[Guide] All you need to know to get Android Lollipop running on your Xperia L

You've stumbled across here because you're either a noob, or a very confused person, or ran across some errors that made you choose another ROM. (Or some random lurker) I've created this thread to make it as detailed and user friendly as possible. Anyways without further ado:
I will not be responsible for anything that happens to your device. Follow my instructions carefully, and everything should work fine. This thread is here inorder to prevent the constant reporting of misleading bugs due to a dirty or unorganized way of flashing roms.​
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Instructions for installing Lollipop:
Requirements:
- Bootloader unlocked Xperia L
- USB cable for the phone
- A computer with flashtool installed along with the necessary drivers.
1. Download the latest version of CM12 or any other lollipop rom along with the Gapps package. I recommend that you use this (use 5.0x for CM12). Download Thunderzap 4.1 as well. (Don't ask why, but make sure you have this in your computer.) Place the ROM and gapps zip files in your SD card or internal storage.
2. The best way to install any custom ROM is to flash them coming from a stock rom. (Skip this step if you're already on stock 1.17) So if you're not on stock, go ahead and grab an FTF from my thread. (Latest version 1.17 - recommended) Flash the stock rom. If you don't know how to do that use this guide as a reference. Do NOT exclude anything.
3. Now you need to flash a custom kernel. To do this, locate and extract the thunderzap 4.1.zip you downloaded earlier on your computer. Then pull out (or copy it somewhere else) the bootjbcwm.img file. You'll need to flash this file via fastboot. If you know how to do that, skip the next step and proceed to step 5.
4. Power off your phone. Open flashtool and select the flash icon. Now hold the volume up button and plug in your Xperia L to your computer via USB. Select fastboot mode. Under "By DoomLoRD", select the option, "select kernel to flash". Now right above the open button you should see an arrow where it says *.sin. Select that and choose *.img. Locate the bootjbcwm.img file and select it. In a matter of seconds the kernel should be successfully flashed. Now turn on your phone, and hold the volume up button when the LED lights up. You have now entered CWM recovery.
5. Enter CWM recovery if you haven't. (when turning on your phone, and hold the volume up button when the LED lights up.) Once you're here select factory reset and select yes. Then select wipe cache, and under advanced select wipe dalvik cache. Once you've done all of this go back, and select 'mounts and storage' and select wipe system. Now go back and select Install zip, and locate the CM12 (or any other lollipop ROM) zip file. Flash the CM12 zip file and allow it to be completed. Once completed flash the gapps zip file.
6. Now go back and select reboot system. If it asks you to root select no. And there ya go! this is all that you need to do for a clean installation. This method allows to reduce the existence of bugs encountered due to dirty or a disorganized way of flashing roms. Sit back and relax and allow your phone to boot.

Instructions for installing root: (CM12)
Instructions for enabling root on Lollipop:
1. Go to settings. Scroll down and select(tap) build number, 7 times to enable developer options.
2. Return to settings and select developer options. Scroll down and select Root access. From here you can select either Apps only or Apps and ADB to allow root access. For starters you can select apps, and for those who are well aware of what ADB means you can select Apps and ADB. I won't be telling you what ADB means, you can Google this yourself.
3. Exit settings and open up playstore. Search SuperSu and download it. Once it has been downloaded and installed, open it. It will display a message saying, "SuperSU binary needs to be updated." Select continue, and then it'll display a message with the options, "Normal" and "TWRP/CWM". Select Normal, and any moment a message from privacy guard should appear. Make sure you check the "remember my choice" button and select grant.
4. Once granted permission from privacy gaurd, it will ask you to reboot, so reboot your phone.
5. There you go, you got root access now quit buggin people will ya!

No, it isn't. Unless you want to over clock or use some of the features provided by thunderzap then yes, but for now wait till 4.14.

My tutorial on the first post is about installing CyanogenMod nightlies for the first time. It's always best to go from stock. I know he's fixed TWRP but still, when its your first time, that's the best way to go. However after you've flashed CM12, you can either use his recovery for dirty flashing and clean flashing (Wipe data, system and cache).
I'm busy so I'll get back to this later.

Is there any known bug at all after fleshing the ROM?
And Please can you share the link for the cyanogen 12.
Thanks in advance.

You can use Bluetooth and copy data via USB. I don't know about USB charging, maybe someone else here can answer that.
About moving apps to SD card, you can move certain apps to your SD card, by navigating to settings>apps. This doesn't let you move all of them, only some. Using the gapps package provided in this this you shouldn't worry too much about space unless you're gonna be installing 4+ drawers of apps lol.
