Try installing 4EXT recovery and before flashing rom, enable SMART-FLASH in options. Then install any rom. It will install

It means the diag file failed which in turn means you have updated firmware and you need to do a workaround solution.. Which is there in sim unlock guide.. Last few pages (written by kgs1992)

Do you have to flash back to stock, I eventually want to s off but at the moment phone works pretty good it was pretty easy to getting root an recovery, unlocking boot loader so when I decide to s off do I have to do anything special to start the process?

It is not. See my above post.
Also, keep in mind that some people report issues booting JB based and 4.2.2 roms until updating to 2.14 hboot.

If you followed my directions exactly, then your best bet is updating to 2.14 hboot by RUUing to 3.18. You would need to S-OFF first if you are not already.
I guaranty there is nothing wrong with the 4.2.2 ROMs.

Ok Im wanting to install some 3.4 kernel roms but needing to update to to the latest hboot and fw I am S-off, Super CID and rooted can I just run the ruu as it is? with out fear of a hard brick? or will I have to revert anything back, Im running slimbean and on 1.14 hboot
If you are s-off you can just run the ruu, flash recovery through fastboot , and then flash a ROM.

SuperCID will stay. You'll just need to flash recovery again, and then either flash superuser to stay stock rooted, or flash a custom ROM.

Yea thats what I always thought, was just bein sarcastic.. So for the sake of the thread and the O.P. To retain root you would have to flash recovery after running the RUU correct? Because the gentleman that I was originally responding to stated that theres no need to flash recovery, that the RUU does this for us...
Yes you need to flash TWRP again after you run an RUU. The RUU only flashes the stock recovery.

Ya I used that one click tool for XL to get the recovery..now on to further questions instead of making a new thread i decided to reuse this one.. anyways after I got through all that i decided to go ahead and flash some custom roms and ended up with the same results when ever someone sends me pics or videos through text, they will download fine until i connect to a wifi, then i get an error saying "couldn't download now, please try again later. Even when I disconnect from the wifi i get the same error and sometimes will not even get data untill I wipe and re flash but everything works fine with the stock rom.. what could cause this i have tried messing with the data options in settings and nothing works. rom's I have used are
Root box
slim bean
xylon
all of them have acted that same and all use the 3.4 kernel. so I'm stuck on stock until i can figure out whats going on :crying: so any help is greatly appreciated :good:
I've never used WiFi with those ROMs so I'm not sure. But are you sure your apn settings are correct? Also, have you tried toggling airplane mode on and off after disconnecting from WiFi?
Sent from my Evita
Ya tried the apn settings and no go also airplane mode toggle will bring back 4g most of the time but still can't download any mms messages

Faults like this are usually caused by incorrect apn settings but I could be wrong.
Sent from my Evita
Is this on AT&T or a different carrier?
Am I reading correctly, WiFi data works in general, mobile data works in general, just mms is not working?
Yes wifi data and mobile data work but mms won't download with either on custom roms only but will work fine on stock

For those of you who want to try the new 3.18.709.2 firmware.
Here is a custom package I made, containing all the 3.18.709.2 files but recovery
is changed for TRWP recovery 2.6.3.0
Also the RED WARNING from the Hboot is removed!
I am running this firmware at the moment, and everything is fine!
Check screenshot for information of the new Radio, enjoy!
Warning:
The boot.img from 3.18.709.2 doesn't like the 3.17 ROM's at the moment, so Camera won't work!
You can fix it by flashing Elemental or Bulletproof or the stock boot.img from 3.17.
If you flashed the firmware package first and after that you flashed a 3.17 ROM you won't have this problem
removed
Flashed it all OK thanks for sharing mate.

That's a general issue with custom hboot, discussed already here.
BTW, if you got S-Off with revone you should update to v0.2.1 that prevents exactly this:
UPDATED revone binary (v0.2.1)
* Safety update: No longer allows -s 3 since this can lead to bricks with custom HBOOTs, use: fastboot oem writesecureflag 3 (which is safer - and checks such things)
* Fix: delusions of grandeur - revone now no longer reports success when it fails.
* Outside chance some previous failures will now be successful but most likely they will just correctly report failure.
Please note that due to the safety update ALL previous versions have been replaced with v0.2.1 and are hence no longer supported.
