Without any information nobody can help you.
What rom?
Are you S-Off or S-On?
What recovery?
And so on. Nobody can read your minds.

did you do a full wipe before flashing the new rom?
also update your recovery to the latest version if you haven't done it

thanks i've updated but its still not working

Try any stock ROM and see if it works.
Make sure as it is very very important to wipe off your data and system partitions before you install a ROM.
Once your stock ROM is working, download any ROM update app from market and install the ROM you want.

You must first restore stock, then update your firmware/bootloader

Sweet!
Gonna try it out now and see if it solves all my problems I have with custom kernels and custom roms, usb tethering etc?
Correct me if I'm wrong but this is still a leaked test release for ACE right?

[Q] Symlinks failed - status 7 - Paranoid Android

Hi Guys,
I've been using Paranoid Android for some time now and love it. I have just downloaded the latest version, performed Dragun's wipe script and when trying to install, I keep getting an error stating a status 7, some symlinks failed. I have tried re-downloading the rom, plus a previous version as well as full wiping everything and factory reset to no avail. Has anyone had this issue? Can anyone help?
I have just tried to install another rom to get past this for now, however it appears the phone is now stuck on the loading screen... Any help would be appreciated.
I would post in the development thread for the rom, however as I haven't posted before, I don't have sufficient permissions.
Cheers,
Mike

[Q] [HELP] Nexus 5 Failed To Boot After Unpurposeful Flashing Wrong Kernel

Allriiiggghhhtt, so I managed myself to root and install custom recovery (TWRP) in my Nexus 5. Shortly I unpurposely flashed the wrong kernel that I downloaded for swipe2wake ability, when I wanted to flash the Faux kernel into my device. And after flashed the wrong kernel my device won't boot, but still can get into the recovery and also tried to re-flash the kernel, fix permissions, restore my back up, wipe the Dalvik and cache and still won't boot up.
Any solution?
Actually, I managed myself to see another solution to re-flash the stock rom which means full factory reset, but at least I want to troubleshoot this thing first before I flash it with stock rom.
Depends on what kernel you flashed. You might be hosed or it might be recoverable.

Nope, I'm not using that app, I had it before in trial but uninstall it and flash to stock kernel. But I had download its custom kernel that I get from the link that the developer provided in Google Play Store description and stored in my storage, and never flash it from TWRP. But now I unpurposely flashed that custom kernel when I tried to flash Franco Kernel.

Recovery and H-Boot

Hello, first of all I'm a super newbie on this A have a bunch of questions.
-I tried to root my HTC evo 3d 3 or 4 days ago and i did it without any issues. Then installed Cyanogen Mod 10.4 (jellybean) on my device. Now i want to update it to Cyanogen Mod 11. Does it woth it? or should I stay in my current version.
-I read the threat about Cyanogen Mod 11, it seems i need to install TWRP first, my current recovery mod is ClockworkMod v6.0.0.0. Is there anything else before i install TWRP or can I just downlaod it and then install like Clockwork?

Did you flash your recovery via fastboot? Easiest way to flash TWRP 2.7 will be using "flashify" from the play store. it has got a built in feature to download the right recovery for your phone, and automatically flash it after download
May be you just read the (whole) thread about your suggested rom before installing it "blind"

If that doesn't work its getting a little complicated. Means you have to install a <4.4 rom and install 4ext updater (installs 4ext recovery) from plystore and then you ca install >4.4.
