hey guys, so I flashed the viperS sense 5.0 Rom using 4ext flash with smart flash enabled. I even flashed the kernel separately and when that didnt work i even used the venom kernel flasher. p.s,when i tried to push kernel modules in the kernel flasher, it gave me an error and it didnt work. My device is on S-ON.
whenever i boot the device, it goes into bootloop.
Help please!

I had also faced the boot loop problem while shifting to Vipers 5 from CM 9. Then I realized I had forgotten to enable smart flash.
Following are the steps
1. enable smart flash
2. Perform full wipe
3. Format everything except sd-card
4. install from sd-card

Thats strange, the old driver is working then but not the new one. Normally that would have something to do with the module not getting loaded or something, but on a fresh, unmodified fallout 5.0 installation it should work. How are you doing the full wipe?

WiFi and Hotspot not working
I got the same issue.
However, the problem occurs when i restart the handset. Each time I restart the kernel changes to Kernel: 3.0.16-g62a67df [email protected]#PREEMPT.
lowveld also thinks this might be the problem.
Can any one help? i do not have the PG88 thing on my SD card. why is the kernel changing automatically when i restart?
Figured out my problem. I used fastboot boot boot.IMG which is wrong the correct command is fastboot flash boot boot.IMG. WiFi and hotspot is working like a charm with fallout ver 5
Hope this might help someone else
I would like to appriciate lowveld for his awesome Rom and his support

Based on some searching and lowveld this issue might be caused by old ones.

Don't forget to flash the boot.img again after you install the kernel. Some boot.img can be found in the kernel folder of the zip

Shut down the phone. Remove your SIM. Power it on and try WiFi. If works that you will be one the unfortunate users with country code issues (more info here)
If it is not the case I suggest to to da full wipe using 4EXT Recovery and install everything again.

I'm still s on and htcdev unlocked but able use 4ext recovery without any problem. Try to download the 4ext recovery again and flash it using fastboot. Download recovery from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377745.
After flashing the recovery do the whole full wipe, boot.img flash etc all over again.
Best of luck!

Don't try to Reflash the rom because that is what finished mine off i think.

Dude you probably flashed 1.17 firmware for unlocking the phone (sim unlock?)
Then you should flash back 3.33 after unlock is done.. And that's mentioned in the instructions kgs given!

Oh.. that's a necessary step to flash boot.img from the Rom.zip ... It's the kernel.
Unless you are S-OFF, you are gonna need to flash the kernel every time you flash a ROM.

Extract the boot.img file from the ROM's zip file and flash it via adb after you have flashed the rom.
After the rom is flashed:
1) Reboot into the bootloader and go into fastboot
2) Connect your phone to your computer
3) Extract the boot.img file from the ROM
4) Open a command terminal in the folder where you've extracted the boot.img file by holding shift and right click, and clicking on "Open command window here".
5) Type
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
and press enter
6) Wait until you get an okay message, and then reboot your phone
Hope this helps.
