Does anyone have Boost ics stock rom? My bootloader is unlocked and I have cwm but s-on. I don't have a way to get on a pc. Can I install through recovery with a nandroid or a .zip with s-on?
Sorry I didn't mean to post this in this thread. I'm not sure how to move it..
A moderator has to move it upon request. Yes, one is available on here, but you are S-On so you may have to pull the boot file from the backup, change name to boot.img then flash it using fastboot (which requires a pc)
However, I haven't been S-On in a long time so I could be wrong about the boot.img...
@russellvone could you elaborate for me.

Thanks for the quick reply! I know flashing probably wouldn't work and I already tried to use a jb nandroid from my brothers phone which didn't work which is why I was wondering if a stock ics unrooted would work
I'm not real sure what happened. All I did was do factory reset in cwm and now its stuck on the HTC quietly brilliant
Haha, that's simple, when you did a factory reset in CWM you formatted your partitions. Your boot.img is still intact but you have nothing on your data, system, etc so there is nothing to load which is why you are not getting past the screen. Only do a factory reset in a custom recovery when like flashing a Rom for example. Which version OS were you on originally before you wiped your phone out ....

I don't have an ICS backup, but I know @russellvone does. He keeps stuff like this on hand for just a situation like this one. However, you should only need to flash the system.img and be good after that. I recommend doing an OTA update in your settings once you get your device back up and going. We will be receiving 4.2.2 with Sense 5 soon.
Anyways, I tagged him as you can see. Just visit back here periodically to see if he replied back. He will, I guarantee you that. He will help you restore your device
Sent from my C525c using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Okay, thanks for the help! Much appreciated!!! Would I have to flash the system.img with fastboot or would it be in a nandroid?
You will use your custom recovery. He will explain the steps. .

You can use a JB backup but you will need the firmware.zip that comes in the JB OTA to flash in rebootRUU to complete the process on your device.
I sent a pm to russellvone about the situation so when he responds he should already be good to go to help you out.

Lol this stuff is so confusing. I'm still a noob on this phone haha. I wish there was something like mobile odin for HTC devices

Your boot.img is still intact so flashing that Rom should get you booted up just fine. If for any reason you get stuck on the HTC screen then you will need to extract the boot.img and flash it with fastboot (however that shouldn't be necessary since you are still on stock boot.img for ICS)

Hey guys my girlfriend has been using this phone for about a year. She is finaly ready to have me root it and flash a smother rom than stock.
I was wondering what was the most stable rom out there.? She will not flash a bunch of roms or anything... Its more of a one time deal...
Sorry what's the smoothest stable rom?
Thanks guys!
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Stock is the most functional, but if you're wanting a flash it and leave it kind of ROM, stick with CM7
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Really depends. CM7 based are my favorite, but if you want BT calling, than rooted stock is the only way. Unless you wanna jump through hoops to downgrade your BB from the March BB. Assuming tthat's what your on. Ivetried tons of ROMs. CM9/10 based are not stable as a daily driver ROM. Eaglesblood and Hellfire v2.3 GB and taemsek build 135.1 are very good CM7 roms.
Its really dependant on what you need the phone to do.

I would assume this pho e would have all kinds of stable stuff being as it's been out so long.. I am going to guess lg does not put out any drivers? I have never owned a lg phone so I'm only guessing.

Which Hellfire? If you want stability don't flash Hellfire Sandwhich. Flash Phenoix v.2.2/2.3 (2.3 is what I use the most as a daily driver, until build 135 nightly came along)
Than I would flash fauxs 050 kernel. I have some issues with 051 kernel.
Just my 2cents.

Goto Settings, About Phone, scroll down to baseband version, does it say in the number March 11, 2012, or a Date I believe Jul 15, 2011.
If you have March 2012, you will need to flash newbaseband.zip as well after you flash the ROM, it's simple.
Here is hotlink for newbaseband. It is not included in the ROM, most of them don't offer it but it's a simple flash n' fix.
Soo,
Do your full wipes,
Flash ROM
Flash Kernel (if not wanting CM7 stock)
Flash newbaseband.zip
flash gapps (if you'd like, I never do anymore cause I use a handful of G Apps.)
Reboot-enjoy!

If shes on the old baseband, there's no need fix anything, but if you flash a new rom, and get a clicking sound, check the general sticky section or my sig to get things sorted out.

I'll try it out when I get off work.. Basically I was going to download the rom from rom manager because I didn't want to search through threads on her stock browser since she didn't have the xda app and I couldn't download the file on my computer and transfer to her phone because her rom wouldn't let her mount usb because miui sucks. So I downloaded the rom from rom manager then I was going to just boot into recovery and flash manually. But rom manager said there was no recovery and that I needed to install one so I let rom manager do that for me.. I downloaded the rom and then rebooted into recovery to flash I was surprised that the font was orange because it used to be blue on her phone. I noticed the cwm version and it was one I've never used or seen anyone use. So first thing I did was factory reset then wiped cache and dalvik. Now I took an extra step and formatted system because I do that on twrp on my gs2. So everything wiped and I go to install from sd card to locate the file to flash and all that's there is dcim and data... Nothing else. I though maybe because I formatted system?? I tried turning off the phone then getting back into recovery and it was the same... Nothing showing up on install from sd. Now I'm freaking out because I go to restore the nandroid from her original stock rom and nothings there either. I already wiped with no option to let me install anything now I don't know what to do. Was it that stupid recover I flashed that is unstable or was it because I formatted system?? I should of checked to see if her internal and external popped up in recovery on install from sd card but didn't think to do so cuz I never had that problem.... I'm ****ed.

Boom, there's your problem, do not use rom manager, you have to use nvflash to get recovery. Search for oneclicknvflasher to get cwm. You need a computer, and download the LG USB g2x drivers, use Google for that. You can never brick this phone.

Hey there this is my first post here.
I have problems with my HTC INSPIRE 4G.
When i shut down or reboot my device take a long time in black screen, after that HTC logo an vibrating.. it takes like 5 minutes, i mean 5 minutes vibrating. after that vibrating stops and short time after that the CM9 logo and start. the whole process is about 10 minutes.
I don´t know if this is a hardware problem or software. Today i was trying to update my radio with fastboot. but i don´t even finish the process. in the part of ADB reboot, the device reboot and since that the problem is present.
What can i do? i can not get into recovery mode or bootloader.
i made a little research and over there is a procedure for fixing the soft brick with fastboot, but i don´t know if this is a brick or what.
Please Help

See if you can use aahk to flash a newer hboot version. It may not be able to because of the slowness. You can also use a PD98IMG to flash hboot from bootloader. I would try the aahk method first though.

Do you know how to use adb. You can boot to bootloader from pc using adb with the "adb reboot bootloader" command. If you can I have a PD98IMG you can load onto root of sd card that will prompt to install from bootloader screen. Due to the slowness though you will have to be patient.

You place that file in the root of your sd card (outside of any and all folders). Once you are in hboot, the system will check for it automatically, then it will ask you if you want to apply the update.

As teichopsia said load it on root of sd and boot into bootloader. When using adb to reboot you will end up in fastboot and will need to select bootloader. Give it time after that to find the image. Also in the future you will want to flash radios using the same method. All inspire radios are packed into a PD98IMG. You shouldn't need fastboot to do anything.

Hi there...
i just follow the indications listed here.. everything is OK.
Hey guys I kinda fubar my phone. Maybe one of you can help me. So I was messing with my phone today trying to install a different rom than cm10 and I wasn't thinking or something and I erased my phone. I don't have any roms for me to access on the phone and there is no os. The erase also got ride of my backup. My computer sees my phone but i can't see any files. I can boot to twrp and see the files but i'm guessing since i don't have the debug option clicked off I won't be able to move a rom to it. The phone tries to boot but since there is no OS it just get stuck at the white htc screen.
Is there any way to flash my phone using my computer?
is there a way to move a rom to the phone so i can load it using twrp?
sorry for being a noob. I've been a iphone user until this htc one x. I love it btw. I should have switched sooner. Any help would be great.
Thanks in advance. :crying:
Mount in twrp and drag a Rom over you may have to mount your sd
Try dragging and dropping the zip file from your computer to SD. Use TWRP to flash zip. If you can find a rom you like with Aroma installer it should make the process less painful and you will not have to flash boot image.
HTC One X
4.1.1
Viper XL 3.1.0
If your completely wiped, I imagine you did a factory reset in boot loader, which probably corrupted SD... If the above advice doesn't work, you'll have to mount in twrp, and format SD... Then drag ROM onto phone and flash... Good luck

You do not have to connect your phone as a storage device. You can connect your phone to the computer while it is in fastboot.
Your computer will still see it.

Since your a new, flash the ViperXL JB ROM that one flashes the boot.IMG for you. It will be less of a pain that way. Good Luck

Yes, every device is very different, and specific ROMs can have their own issues as well. Somebody here can easily give you advice that doesn't apply to your device, and cause you to brick. Just post in the correct forum section for your device. There is no reason to post here.

Yeah, what is up with that. People need to read a WHOLE LOT MORE before flashing stuff blindly and posting their problems in the wrong forum.

PM me with what you have in mind. I'm an IT professional for 20+ years in Long Island NY. Have been hacking HTC phones since the Cingular 8125 wizard. I could be interested depending on the details.

I think I may have finally done it. I flashed the latest slim rom (vers 6) today, booted into the ROM and set it up. No problems. Then I flashed faux mainline kernel. I followed the instructions for the kernel install, and hit reboot as last step. The phone shut off and did not reboot. I am now unable to turn on, boot into recovery, or download mode. When I attempt to connect to the PC to try and ODIN back to stock, the phone will not connect to the PC. I have the latest Samsung drivers installed and have connected to my PC previously with no problems. I know I downloaded and installed the right version for my phone, I have flashed kernels many times before.
Am I screwed now? I have insurance on the phone, but really would like to get the phone back from the grave if at all possible. Any help offered would be greatly appreciated.
Never heard of the kernel ... Got a link to it???

Going through the history of my browser, it looks like I did a bone head and flashed a Nexus 4 kernel to my VZ GS3. Am I screwed?
Possibly ... Your kernel tells your phone what to do and how to do it ... If you can't get Odin to connect there's a big issues but I've never flashed a wrong kernel so research around a bit for more info ... You can't get into download mode or recovery mode??

Might need to either send it in for JTAG or spend the money to get the insurance replacement

Did a little research real fast and looks like there may be options .. Just keep searching and trying a few things before giving up ... Good luck

In Settings>About>Tell HTC and error reporting
There is Red text in the bottom saying
This is a test device. Accordingly, to collect critical
information about the device, Tell HTC is enabled and
cannot turned off regardless of device setting
Are you S-Off?
What software are you on?
More information, please!
Have to remove the tampered flag that appears on HBoot. Remove that and it will remove the red text
I made a tutorial on this, but so far it is only known to work on K2_CL. I need certain files to determine if it can be done on other variants. I give details in my thread. Would you be willing to help me with those files? If so, go check out my thread and follow up on the instructions . Would be greatly appreciated.

if you flashed a modded Hboot, like the one that removes red text, it will stay there
#EDIT#
I think
OK. Here's the bootloader screen shot & the red text on my "report to hTC" screen...
Edit...Photos attached below...
What further info do you need to help me "fix" this?
Crazy new user rules won't let me post the real URLs, sorry.
could you at least post the photos as images, instead of links?

nevermind... I see it

The only modded Hboot was flashed by moonshine when I SOFFed the phone. That was replaced by the OTA update...
Seems your phone would have gone through a similar process to get SOFF?
I have not changed CID...should be 'SPCS_003'

do you have a custom recovery flashed?
Here's the other picture...
Hmmmm, interesting. I currently have TWRP recovery on my device. Unlocked, tampered removed, s-off, no custom HBoot though, and the red text that would appear in settings no longer is there for me lol.

No. Stock recovery has not been overwritten.
When I need TWRP, or custom recovery, I boot it from fastboot command line:
Code:
$ fastboot boot TWRP.IMG
Edit...I wasn't sure if I could restore my dd backup of stock recovery if I needed it for an OTA update...

weird, I have twrp installed, custom CID, stock boot.img, stock Hboot(except for the CID) and i DO have the red text under tell HTC?
POLL.... who here has superSU installed as system app?
I keep a copy of my recoveries on my device and pc. On device I just throw them in a PL80IMG.zip or I use dd to write the image to the recovery partition (which personally is much easier and fastest method for me).
