Cannot install stable CM10.2 - HTC One S

My capasitive back, home and recent apps buttons has stopped working so I would like to have the on screen buttons as I do on my Nexus 10.
I tried to root the device to be able to modify the /system/build.props file. I used the superboot method but that din't work as I have S-ON. I then continued trying to install CM 10.2, and in the process, when installing CWM recovery, that asked If I wanted to root and I did. I then booted back in to the stock ROM now with root but after changing the build.props file it just reverted after reboot. I then continued to flash the CM10.2 and gapps for 4.3, but the device fails to boot... Now I have reverted to backup and use the button savior, but I don't like it...
I suspect that trying to flash this superboot messed up something... ? On one of the start up screens I have a disclaimer in red about HTC development software which came up after I tried to flash that...

Can anybody help me?

Having root does not grant you automatically rights to modify system files. For altering build.prop you should have mount /system partition in R/W mode before trying to edit the file. Even if you have root, /system is read only so you cannot save changes. You could mount system as R/W either by ADB commands issuing the following from command prompt:
su
adb shell mount -o rw, remount /system
Or by mounting system R/W from the root file Explorer you're using
Sent from nowhere over the air...

I used root explorer to alter the file, and before edit i clicked the mount r+w button. I read somewhere that on-screen buttons does not work on HTC sense anyways, so I may have to install CM or an other rom... I tried to flash just the CM10.2 an not the gapps now, but it fails to boot. The HTC splash screen comes up, the screen goes black, the splash comes, goes black, and so it goes...

I forgot to flash the boot.img... inside the zip

Although this is for another HTC model, the basic idea should get you started again.
http://htc-one.wonderhowto.com/how-to/fix-soft-bricked-htc-one-by-flashing-new-rom-via-adb-0154361/

I Guess that when i tried the superboot, that did something to my kernel. Inside the .bat file it actually flashes the boot (isn't that the kernel?)
Cyanogenmod also has a note in the install procedure which I initialy didn't do:
Note:
This device, if unlocked with HTCDev Unlock, must have its kernel flashed via fastboot. Extract boot.img from the CyanogenMod .zip package and flash it from the bootloader with: fastboot flash boot boot.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So I flashed the boot.img inside the Cyanogenmod .zip first, than I wiped and installed the Cyanogenmod .zip from the CWM recovery. I ended up using the M7 snapshot of CM11, and that worked! I then flashed gapps for Android 4.4.
After everything was up and running I edited the /system/build.props using root explorer (I mounted /system as r+w inside root explorer) adding the line qemu.hw.mainkeys=0, rebooted and got the softkeys!

So what happens if you flash TWRP as the link says?

I din't use TWRP. I used CWM Touch 6.0.4.8.
I probably could just flashed the boot.img after the device didn't boot, but I reverted to backup, and started over and started with the boot flash...

Can you get to the boot loader menu?
You can still flash TWRP on there and follow the instructions. If you really want CWM afterwards, simply flash CWM back on. I would try the link since it is talking about stopping your boot loop.

As I said: I'm OK! Flashing the boot.img from inside the zip did the trick. Everything is working like a charm now.

So how do I go about putting this on? Flash the .zip with clockwork or flash the image via fastboot?

as i see you are s-off so you can't use fake flash method,download the img file (the second one) so u just have to burn the recovery with unrevoked flasher tool, or the android flasher tool both are good and working.
soz i don't have time to search links, i think if u go a little down by pages u will find the android flasher.
Go to your "old" ClockworkRecovery and apply Update.zip
Worked fine for me!

I get this too. When I'm actually in recovery the version number is 2.5.1.2, but ROM Manager reports the version number as 2.5.0.7. ROM Manager also says the latest version is still 2.5.0.7. I guess it's ROM Manager that's wrong, rather than the actual recovery.
help
i did a backup using nandroid on this new recovery and now im in a bootloop...need assistance...
Why did you alter the source before you built it? You added your own name to the recovery screen, while I don't see that you changed or added any functionality of the recovery. Your changelog is identical to the github logs.

Not all mods use updater-script, test and if that don't work, try this this usefull tool that make the conversion betwen Amend and Edify: amend2edify
If some one want, i can explain the use of this tool
Before Flashing:
You need adb and fastboot to perform this install !
You can download it here:
http://www.multiupload.com/QACREBQOWO
You also have to download the CWM 3 .IMG here:

2) copy the .IMG of CWM 3 into the same folder of the step 1 (ex: "C:\adb_fastboot\ace-cwm-3.0.0.5.img")
3) Connect your phone by USB in (Charge only mode
4) Open a command prompt: Windows key + R and type "cmd" and valid by OK
5) Go into your adb_fastboot folder with this command:
Code:
cd C:\adb_fastboot
If your folder disk is not c:\ replace "C" by the correct letter !
If your folder is not named adb_fastboot, repalce "adb_fastboot" by your folder name !
6) Reboot your phone in bootloader with this command:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
7) Flash the recovery with this command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery ace-cwm-3.0.0.5.img

PG88IMG Splash screens

Thread closed
jmcclue said:
Hi i made a few splash screens for HTC Desire S... S-OFF phones. Just download the PG88IMG.zip that you want, rename it to just "PG88IMG.zip" put it on your sdcard (NOT in a folder) and boot in to bootloader, bootloader will find the PG88IMG and ask to update splash? press volume up for yes then press power to reboot.
Dont forget to delete it off your sdcard once your done coz everytime you enter bootloader, it will ask to update.
I only made a few simple ones so if anyone has any ideas n wants a splash screen then post your pic here and il make it.

Extract the file and put the .img file in ur fastboot folder and flash it from fastboot, its the best way anyway.
Command (i think) is
fastboot flash splash1 splash.img

Help!!! my lenovo tab a10-30(tb2x30l) has been bricked!

Hey, This is my first post, hope it goes well
What happened was,
-->I installed a custom rom(LineageOS) with the help of twrp recovery installed from xda(link below) and I have succesfully installed the rom and also intalled root with it
-->Later, after further use of the new rom, ,it was uncomfortable. It was not as fast and compactable as the original rom so I decided to revert back to the official and original rom.
-->But This is where I made a big mistake, I was to try to clear the data and try if the custom rom fixed but instead, I wiped up the whole rom and no backup!!!
-->Now, I cannot go into recovery mode, bootloader and whichever vol+ and vo- and power, all combinations boot me to twrp.
-->luckyly, the adb sideload is working and it is not detected in the lenovo downloader software for me to flash.
Any help? Please help me.
Thanks

Correct.
Search for suitable Stock ROM at your own.
I've searched for over 3 days but no luck.
All I get is the rar file and inside that, firmware folder, drivers and software for flashing it.
If I get the tab into bootloader, I can flash but it does not allow me to go into boot loader, stock recovery.
All it does is to take me back to TWRP.
I have aldready installed around 7-9 stock roms but no zip file with meta inf folder, boot.img, system.img and the other required files.
Please Help
So I searched the WEB for tablet's Stock ROM and found it within seconds.

You flash it either via ADB Sideload method or via Lenovo Downloader Tool.
Hi,
Even I had found the same one.
But how do I flash it via adb sideload?
The problem is, in the zip file, there is drives, firmware and another folder.

Medion (Lenovo) P1060x Tablet - ROM [Stock debloated], TWRP, Magisk Kernel

Hey!
Normal I'm just reading here and don't contribute something, but since I've got that old fully bloated Tablet I'm trying to port something on my own. First because I broke the Tab, now because I have time for some experiment and the tablet was just a gift so never mind if it's broken or not. Hopefully it stays alive.
Till now there is no shiny Custom ROM, but I'm trying to Port! What you found here is a debloated Original System, that's nearly looking Stock Android, a new Splash.img without the Medion branding, and also an Updated TWRP 3.6 that runs annoying slow.
The Files are present as they are, I don't know when I Update things or debug something. It runs on my Tab, maybe it doesn't run on your Tab. Be sure to back up your System with the given TWRP. External SD-Card work even with 128 GB for me. So enough Space to save all partitions. The TWRP doesn't work well with secured data partition, so you have to back up every Partition one by one. The Boot.img is patched with Magisk 24.3

U need to install Gapps because I delete all Google Services.
Also, the Obsolete Keyboard and the Launcher is gone from System.img! So if u flash it and can't do anything, u have been WARNED!
Unlocking Bootloader is necessary to Flash boot.img, TWRP.img and so on! Use the Search if u don't know how.
The Image is in Sparse format to used with fastboot, if u don't know how … you know, the Search thing.
just to
Spoiler
Flash things
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash splash splash.img
fastboot flash recovery twrp3.6.1_9.0.img
fastboot erase userdata
Prefer Aroma Installer to be used found on OpenGapps for Google Apps or a Working Keyboard and Launcher, but we don't have that much Space the Full Gapps are at Maximum Capacity.

That's because data is not encrypted with the kernel.
Be sure that you delete data partition once you flashed the modified System Partition.
Code:
fastboot erase userdata
Data will be crypted at next full boot, there is no encryption till now. The boot take for me 5-6min.
Hello, its some months ago but im still trying to get it working. i got to a point it boots into recovery saying "Cant load android system, ur data may be corrupt. If u continue to get this meassage, you may need to perform a factory data reset" Its just getting to my nerves and i want this to finally work.

Hey, just been a while not on XDA.
Have you performed a factory reset? You could also use adb commands to do this, or you use AROMA Installer to erase everything if TWRP don't work on ur tablet.
