peetr's hybrid 2.3.5 bootlooping - help? - Motorola Photon 4G

I tried installing peetr's hybrid 2.3.5 using clockwork recovery (from CM7), now bootlooping. Has anyone else had this problem? Nothing came up in my search. Halp.

Did you do factory reset (wipe data)?

I'll try it, I assume you mean from recovery.
It worked, I'm looking forward to trying out your rom, I've liked CM7 but was starting to miss the webtop feature.

Many people do just in case since something happens. Just backup everything first!
IMO...

i would. if you don't, you might get stuck in a bootloop. some roms don't require you to (ie...CM updates). but even then, it doesn't hurt to do it after so many CM updates. now, if you don't want to lose your data, i'd recommend using titanium backup...if you haven't already.
Rule of thumb would be as follows:
Wipe Dalvik.
Wipe cache.
Factory/data reset.
Flash ROM.
Wipe Dalvik.
Wipe cache.
Factory data/reset.
This should keep you safe. Only takes an extra minute to do.
Some ROM's will wipe for you, but I always do a manual wipe first anyway.

In CWM select advanced on the main menu and you will see wipe Dalvik there.

Com.phone.

When I reboot with any rom my phone and texting stops working and I have no signal and is say com.phone.something has stopped working and makes me force close it and then I have to reflash the rom again to get it to work again any ideas on how to fix this?

Are you doing a factory data/reset, wiping cache and wiping dalvik right before rom flash and immediately after. Doing this should correct your issue. If not, then something is internally wrong.
I use the wipe versions of the rims

You still need to manually wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik then install the rom and immediately wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik again.
Try those steps and see what happens.
wipe dalvik is in the advanced menu of CWM
When full wipe roms came out it was thought that it would take care of the wiping for you, but many have learned the hard way to manually do it as well and 9 times out of 10 it fixes the problems.
I have never had one rom give me a problem and Im sure its because I follow these steps.
*****try "fix permissions" with CWM or Rom Manager also******

Michaelatrix do what Dirtburgler say. I just had the same exactly problem after flash Cherry rom and after I read this thread and follow what Dirtburgler say I don't have the problem anymore.
Edit: My problem was different. My error was to try to restore a SMS backup from Titanium backup. I never do a full restore from Titanium just apps and SMS/MMS/Dialer but I guess that SMS/MMS/Dialer has a different version than Cherry use (I was using 2.3.4 stock).

EVO 3D not going pass boot logo after Rom Manager

Hi Guys,
I really need help here.
I have a rooted and unlocked boot loader (Revolutionary) HTC Evo 3d. I already had clockwork recovery installed but when i opened ROM manager and clicked on download ROms it asked me to download clockwork recovery.......so i did. The phone got stuck so i pulled the battery out. Now i simply cannot get past the HTC boot logo. I can get into recovery but i do not want to factory reset as i don't have a backup of my data. Is there ANY way to do ANYTHING to fix this?
Would really appreciate any help in this regard. Any suggestions????

Try booting into recovery ...once there wipe dalvik cache, and also clear the option that says "data cache" will edit so I can reboot and get the exact wording but its data clear cache is what you want to clear as well..then once complete reboot phone and it should get you going. What ROM are you flashing?
**its wipe data/factory reset**
Clear that then reboot see if that helps

Did you wipe the data/factory reset.
You didn't mention that one..there's 3
1) wipe cache
2) dalvik
3) data/factory reset

Don't really want to do a factory reset because i don't have a back up of my data. I guess no option other than this.

No its not a factory reset of your phone..ie: settings erase ..
This is through recovery on clock mod. All it does is clear the previous data which is probably why you get stuck in boot loop
its not going to erase your phone...

Did all 3. Dodnt work. In the fast boot theres an option of factory reset(Not in the recovery) should i go ahead with that? Or since my phone is unlocked and rooted that might mess things up more?
Last option is to flash again

It should be in recovery...if you are using clock mod ...let me see if I can get a screen shot ...stand by
Sent from my Swagurious Evo running CM7
Ok not uploading.....but once you boot into clock mod....in the options one of those is the data/wipe factory reset something like that in recovery...not fastboot.
If you did that then you will need to flash again....do a nandroid recovery and then try again

I know how to do that and did it correctly but no luck. I guess flashing a new rom is the only way.
Could you point me to where i can get ROMS for the eve 3d? There seem to be a few online so any recommendations?
Just copy a PG86IMG.zip image of TWRP to your sd and install through the bootloader.
Then, never use Clockworkmod recovery again in your lifetime.

I never had a problem with cwm on devices with no other option.... But on devices that had other options the other options have always been the better choice. Could it be that cwm sucking necessitated an alternative or mere coincidence? Likely the latter... But I'll never use cwm if I have another option--cuz all I hear about is trouble.

At the risk of becoming a pest can someone please tell me which rom to go for ? Im downloading virtuous_shooter for eve 3d.

That is what you're looking for but all it's gonna do is flash a different recovery. From your posts, it seems cwm recovery was still functional. You just need to flash a new rom and forget about your previous data. Always have a nandroid backup of some sort, and this won't happen. I nandroid backup once a week atleast, and more if I start tinkering with the rom. I have also NEVER had any problems with cwm recovery on any of the four android devices i've owned. I don't know why people dislike it so much.

[Q] Help! Wifi Error, Hotspot Error synergy

So this is my first root and wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache. I then ran the Infected_wipe. But every time I flash Synergy 2.3.4 it works to an extent but wifi and hotspot give me errors.
Actually I did run viperrom but only recieved 1x speeds plus i wasn't hooked.
I read this may be a kernel issue and the kernel doesn't say ziggy when I checked. Sorry I couldn't find the answer out there.
Btw I'm running an s-on, h-boot 1.5, root on 2.3.4, and 2.18.651.5
I'm having the same issue....
Bah Humbug.
So it seems were all doomed. Who needs wifi really... or hotspot.... Save me
Ok guys I just flashed this kernel using flash image gui. And it made my hotspot work awwwwwww yeah. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1255465
Trying it now via fastboot cwm recovery I'll let you know if it works
Nope..... i'm screwed

Which kernel did u use? I used the the first one not sure if that matters.
I used the first one. I'm going to try TWRP and see if it makes a diff. over CWM
So twrp made the difference over CWM. I cleared the Dalvik Cache and Cache, did a factory reset and lo and behold the ROM worked with the built in ziggy kernel

[Q] Brother and Sister please HELP! :(

i was using Saurom ROM at 1st and it worked perfectly for my galaxy note i717(this was my 1st attempt to root my phone and install a new rom), and i saw a better ics rom ("Onlyone" ics rom) at rootmygalaxynote.com, i flashed the new ics rom into my phone and it stuck at the samsung logo. i tried to re-install the ics rom again and same thing happened. So, i go back to re-install my old Saurom ROM. But when the phone get into the main screen, it is extremely laggy and eventually freeze, most of the cases, the phone reboot itself. i m so scare that the phone is not able to read any rom now. and i am new to smart phone, can any Brother and Sister in this Forum can me get through this? i m so depress
Your issue is you forgot to wipe. No not that kind of wipe. LOL. Go into recovery (CWM) and do a "wipe data/factory reset". Then install the OnlyOne ROM again.
I responded to this thread that you duplicately created in the general section. Fyi don't create two threads in different sections anymore

when i got the cwm recovery, the 1st thing i did was wipe all data and factory reset, and then i also wipe "cashe"<---wrong spelling probably. and then i went install the rom. anything that i have missed? is there any possible data corruption during the download of the OnlyOne ROM?
Data corruption is possible. You may have also downloaded an older version. Download the ROM again from this forum in the Dev section. There is a thread for it. Do your wipes again first. Then install it again. Let it settle before restoring anything. ROM performs well.
Hey
Just remember that when flashing onlyone rom it's sit on the samsung logo for a while its ok for fist time instal of rom as long as samsung logo is flashing ur fine good luck
