[Solved] Installing Kernals

If I want to install a different kernel such as beastmode or something, can I just flash it with twrp? I'm running viper Rom right now on stock kernel and I'm om hboot 1.09 .

yes you can, just make sure it's compatible with whatever rom you're running. You may want to ask the kernel dev in question, a lot of rom developers frown upon flashing a kernel they have nothing to do with (for obvious reasons) and will not provide support if yo have any issues.

I flashed a kernel earlier today (Beastmode v. 3.0) but it didn't work the first time. Here are the steps I took:
1. Downloaded the boot.img for Beastmode Kernel (Its found on page 166 of the thread just read the posts)
2. Rebooted into Bootloader
3. Flashed the boot.img via fastboot
4. Reboot into Recovery (TWRP)
5. Flash Beastmode zip
6. Reboot System
HOWEVER....I should note that it did not work the first time I tried it for some reason it would hang at the HTC ONE screen for a long time and never made it to the home screen. So I actually factory reset, re-flashed stock boot.img from King Cobra v 1.5 ROM then I repeated the above steps and it worked, confirmed the clock speed via Benchmark app...
Hopefully it works for ya!

be careful what you write, he is not on the same hboot version you are and DOES not need to flash the boot.img in fastboot

Sorry OP, should have noted that. I am 1.14

Welllll, he can flash it fastboot. If he's on 1.09 he can go both ways if he chooses.

agreed. but he certainly does not have to do both as Empyre posted. I also find it is probably safer for a new user (yes a noob) to deal with twrp than commands in fastboot.

Thanks for the help.

It is all stock except:
[+] you can write to /system !
[+] add adb root
[+] support init.d
I will not be modifying, maintaining, updating, or otherwise doing anything else with this.
==================================================

(libs) kernel_x920e.zip MD5: f310cb0f8420a198ab2ae2c5190b364b
How to FLASH ?
1. boot your phone in fastboot, flash the boot.img

Nope, network is fine.

After flashing this kernel and upon starting it says in red this build is for development purposes only do not distribute outside of htc without written permission. Failure to comply may lead to legal action. Is this normal how to remove it ??

It is because you unlocked it via HTCDEV.com. It isn't because you flashed this kernel.
We can't remove this message.

What if I flash jaggy 3.2.1 without super user, Su binaries and memory script and relock bootloader..??
Can I flash custom kernel on stock with busybox installed..?

You cannot flash a custom ROM or kernel with a locked bootloader.
If you have noticed .. when we boot into the bootloader.. the Hboot verifies some images PJxxxx... A locked bootloader will search for all the images i.e. stock system.img stock boot.img recovery.img and i think userdata.img too...
And we cannot " LOCK " our bootloader once it is unlocked. We can only " RELOCK " it..
Stock Recovery ? I havent tried but check THIS out..
Cheers bro.

Thanks. I got stock recovery from there...
I know about "relocked" thing but I had saw somewhere that appropriate RUU can make it "Locked"..
I've not tried yet as I've not found any RUU for mine...
Is that true..?

If you have anything except a signed HTC official RUU on your phone, and you "relock" your bootloader, your phone wont go past the hboot... First hand experience says so..
If you wanna lock your bootloader, you MUST have an RUU ready to install.. A locked bootloader wont even let you boot into a custom rom/recovery..
Even "fastboot boot" wont work...

What I mean is that I want to relock after flashing stock Rom as I got that I'll unable to relock on custom Rom.
I think I can relock on stock Rom 1.43 available out there in dev section..
1.43 have both odexed and de-odexed builds.. which one can I use?

I don't think both are signed by HTC. If what sachin said about -The signatures used on Rom and boot should match -
Then both won't work -you'll be stuck at fastboot.
Sent from my HTC Explorer A310e using xda app-developers app

On older HTC devices and most other devices, you can relock the bootloader even while using custom ROMs and kernels. But now HTC doesn't want us to relock bootloader except for flashing signed images. You can try flashing the signed (unmodified) images of stock kernel, ROM and recovery manually and then relocking. I'm not sure whether this would work, I can't even imagine going back to stock ROM :silly:

what about other than 1.43 stock Roms.?

Like sachin said, extract the untouched boot image and system yaffs image and recovery image from ruu and flash it - that's probably the only way other than ruu. stock Roms found here will probably not work,no matter what version.

I believe the stock 1.43 boot is untouched. Not sure whether the system partition's signature is verified as it's too large. You can try 1.43 boot.img along with the recovery image from latest RUU
BTW, if your radio is 1.11.82.30 you can also try searching for an RUU with a newer radio version

What's the latest available RUU version? Is it older than your current radio version? The RUU filename should contain the radio version too. Check it and find an RUU with a newer radio version

You don't need 1.43 ruu.
just ruu,what you have and update

[HELP] How to Unbrick

Hi guys..i need help here..my friend ask me to unbrick his HTC Explorer..its rooted already..he said its happen bcoz he wrongly deleted software..system file perhaps..so the situation here, its stuck into white screen with HTC logo..i search google, i can unbrick it using RRU..but one of my friend said, RRU cannot be done on unlocked bootloader..so i wanna ask if anyone can guide me, how to unbrick it to stock rom..i dont know whether this phone bootloader unlock or not..how to check it? thanx
EDIT : Done..its unlocked and i just flash any custom rom..is there any pure stock rom that flashable on CWM? or i only can use custom based on stock only?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2189199 This is as close as it can be to stock rom, there is pretty much no difference between this and ruu, only installation method. If you want check out this thread also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2225776 this is with the newest official update for explorer

my friend, i tried both, but end it with bootloop..but other custom rom can boot to homescreen..hurmm..but i wanna stock rom..did i need to flash stock kernel first?

That's weird... No, kernel first is not needed for the phone. Can you try first flashing this http://www.mediafire.com/?lim1od8qrjdbblp and after that one of the roms, another idea is to search for a backup of stock rom, then just restore it, I'm sure somewhere here in the forum I saw one, just couldn't find it now and I don't have a lot time, will try again later.Or ask in of the rom's thread, I just have no clue why stock roms don't work for you.

It appears to be the case of soft brick. Just download any custom from of your choice (IMO go for cm9#12) and flash it.
