So I've been on 2.4.1 but I really wanted to flash to jb 3.2.1 for the first time so I did it and it worked fine but then I realized I had to reboot for some apps to restore there data and I did so but then it gets stuck at the Viper xl boot screen. Also it says u don't have to flash the boot. Img so I didn't also I wiped everything b4 I flashed it from ics 2.4.1 to jb 3.2.1.. I also have twrp

Are you on hboot1.14? I'd flash the boot img just to make sure
by "wiping everything" do you mean you did factory reset (in TWRP) and wiped cashe and Dalvik? Those are all mandatory to wipe (at least if you are having troubles0.
Well I flashed it about 4 times and it finally works I have no idea what was wrong but everything is ok now.. Thnx

Make sure data you are restoring isn't system data as ics and jb don't like each other

Title says it all. No matter what I do I can't get the phone to open on any sense based Rom. I can receive calls just fine but every time I hit the phone or contacts button it either FC's or just closes immediately. But on aosp toms it works great. Any ideas?

Are you wiping before flashing? Have you tried wiping your cache and dalvik cache?

Absolutely.

I re wiped cache/dalvic and then wiped the system, and refreshed. When I open the phone it will open for about a second before it closes. Same with the contacts app.

That's really strange. What ROMs have you tried that are doing this?

By 'wiped the system' do you mean just the /system partition or all partitions? (Boot, system, data and cache)

Just system in twrp.

Fix problem
Another option is to just to bring the phone back to stock and start over again. There are threads that show how to do that.

Ya I'm gonna relock and do the ruu tonight if I have to. Just didn't want to deal with it if I didn't have to.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Well you should be wiping your data partition too. Keeping the same data partition while flashing different ROMs will cause a lot of problems and FCs. Especially with phone and contacts and such system apps.

Did you do a full wipe including SD card? Cyanogen and Virtuous are very different so I'd remove any traces of VI but installing CM9.
If same result possible screen on the way out
This is probably a result of flashing the ROM incorrectly. I've had this problem before, just do a full wipe and try again. :good:

Wrong section though - you should ask questions like this in General.
BTW, try to re-flash the recovery in Fastboot mode, I've noticed that it's glitchy if boots up only sometimes. I've attached TWRP recovery, u can use it - 100% working.
Thanks!

As of right now I can't load any Rom except for venom. I don't know what is stopping my phone from working.
Background, dropped phone in the toilet, dried it out and everything worked. Went to change roms and something got messed up during the install which cause the phone to have no Os and no usb support. Got all of that straight, reloaded the phone back to stock, rooted it again, unlocked it, and loaded venom.
I have tried to load other roms but it will install in recovery but after reboot it will stay on the loading screen for the rom.
Any help will be great. Thanks!

You have to flash the boot.img
Hate to sound like I haven't been doing this for a while but where do I get the boot.img?

*facepalm* all roms have there own boot.img. if you open your Rom you'll see what says boot. That is it and you go into fastboot and flash it or use the flash gui app

Venom has a way of flashing the boot.img for you...but otherwise since you're on hboot 1=14 you have to manually flash the boot img....dont worry that's why were here to help!

Unfortunately it sounds like when you reflashed to stock you upgraded the hboot, which in turn makes it so you have to flash the boot.img through fastboot. It's unfortunate, but there is a JET tool if you're experienced in Linux to downgrade your hboot. but, like I said, don't do it unless you're confident.
Thanks guy. I got it to work with the flash GUI. Back to clean Rom!

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)

I did flash gapps but I'll try fixing permissions.
[Edit]
Fixing the permissions didn't work.
