Hi!I have some strange problem(which may or may not have occured after i have root uninstalled stock sense 4.1 browser{i am using team genesis sense 4.1}).for example always when plugging in headphones or starting google navigation or playing a video through engadget app.but no random reboots when phone is in standby for example.it freezes then restarts.
i am using team genesis sense 4.1
hboot 1.49.1107 GSM
ics
what can i do?should i unroot then reroot?can this solve my problems?
You could try to reinstall the Rom first without wiping. That would put the files you took out by uninstalling the stock browser. Hopefully that fixes it.

Yea do a fresh flash

So can the assume your are s-off, predators sense 4.1 Rom is an exact copy of viper3d's Rom , actually a kang. It sounds like a kernel issue, I believe predator replaced ziggys kernel with coolexe's kernel. So flash a new kernel. Check your pm
(don't ask me for help, as I couldn't care less if you phone explodes)
tried to reinstall and to fresh reinstall OS.nothing works.now,i will temporary unroot,go back to GB and test the things made my phone restart and come back with some news.hopefully good ones!
Its probably a ROM issue. As flashallthetime said its a kang with things modified. Try the latest Viper3D, im sure your problems will be solved
while rooted i tried multiple sense 4/4.1 roms and cm9.same issue.now,i temporary unrooted and went back to 2.3.3.no reboots.if everything goes smooth i am planning on rerooting tonight.any suggestions?
Emjnem is correct flash viper3d Rom it is the only good sense 4 or 4.1 Rom for our EVO gsm, avoid any kernels that are also available on this forum as they are mostly responsible for your and others bootloops, and how do I know this well experience, the kernel I am using is not available on xda, and I can flash any Rom flash the kernel I have and bam no bootloops, I haven't had a bootloop for over 2 weeks
(don't ask me for help, as I couldn't care less if you phone explodes,eh!!!)
I had the same problem, now running viper3D with the forbidden kernel, thanks to this guy above me! Not a single reboot ever since (s-offed 2 days ago)
THANK YOU flashallthetime!
Your are welcomed and thanx

So the moral of this story is, 1 don't always assume what a developer is giving you is without issues, don't always believe what is on there descriptions, on the whole, some are honest and tell you what to expect but there is a few who love the attention, so be cautious please ask around, and maybe you problems will be corrected.

Well, I may be in a pickle. I flashed what appeared to be the CDMA version of Disarmed Toaster 0.6 or whatever it was. It didn't boot, so I went to my backup. My phone won't pick up signal anymore, and what's worse, it would appear that WiFi doesn't work either. I've gone to backups from January, done a full wipe and reflash of my daily, and it hasn't fixed the problem.
What the hell do I do now? Anybody have this happen and fix it?
Try flashing firmware? Also, did you just try restoring from a nandroid or did you try flashing the actual rom?

I've tried updating radios. I'm doing an RUU as a last ditch now. I did both the restore and a flash.
EDIT: Full RUU did nothing.
So no signal or wifi? Does 4G work?
I really don't feel like a rom would bork radios, that's quite strange.

Wifi works. I guess the restaurant I was at when it happened had weird things going on with theirs (couldn't connect). 4G, 3G, and 1X voice all do not work. *2 for Sprint doesn't work. The phone has completely forgotten how to do the whole phone thing. I bought an LTE off eBay, but it won't be here for a week and a half, so I'd still like to get this one working.
I feel the same way as you. Unless there was something deadly hidden in it (which I doubt. It's Agrabren.) I don't see it happening. I'm wondering if it could actually be a remnant of the VM firmware that finally showed up. I honestly don't know.
i have the same problem from a flash i did about 2 days ago when i flashed
[28/10/12][JB 4.1.2]ParanoidAndroid 2.50 when the phone booted up there was no signal and i've tried everything ruu nandroids everything any help ?????
i was s-off h-boot 1.40
it seems like no devs ever touch on this subject and these Q&A just slip away never being answered and yes a rom can wipe out radio and what not or i would not be on here asking for help.
I was on 3drp with no problem just wanted to check out the rom and wham no radio ever since.
any help would be awesome
thanks!!!
Have you tried making the phone go through hands free activation again? I've not heard of this issue from anyone else using these ROMs.
I had the same issue with a sense 4 rom. I did a ##786# and thzt did it
Do a ##clear# and that should reset everything. Then do an update from the about phone screen in settings.

These 2 guys are the first I've heard from thousands of installations of Jb based roms. I know for a fact that jjriz had flashed freeza's vm leak prior to flashing the PA rom, those may be linked somehow but we don't know how or why this has happened.

This was so much easier on my other phones and my Skyrocket... but Girlfriend is jealous and wants here ATT Galaxy S2 i777 up to a newer rom. Her phone is running the latest UCLE5 ICS from OTA. I just used ODIN to gain root using the stock kernel and all is still well except no clockwork. I'd like to get clockwork from the most factory kernel I can so I can snap a nandroid of the phone exactly as it is today, settings, apps backgrounds etc. This gives me a restore point to bring her back to if she decides running cutting a cutting edge rom is too annoying for her, and hence by proxy for me.
So on my Skyrocket, I just used ODIN to get CWM, nandroid and done, no root or anything.... whats the equivilent for the S2 i777 given the same requirement?
Thanks.
Once I've got a good nandroid, I'll wipe and move on with the hostile operations.
BTW, I did look at all he kernels but most all seem to have some nuance to them - I just want a CWM update to start that is ultimately as non intrusive as possible.

You have to flash a zimage from a kernel using Mobile odin. Google how to flash custom binaries without ever incrementing the flash counter i 777 and the first one should be correct
Bleh
I read that thread and understand the concepts, but its covered in bold red warnings "You must use a Gingerbread kernel!". At all the important steps. It seems much of the documentation is very Gingerbread centric.

If all he wants is a custom ROM. Just flash any kernel with CWM, and flash the ROM of choice
There is no point backing up stuff, flashing a different ROM, then flashing a kernel to get CWM. God the root process is a joke as listed.
---------- Post added at 10:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:04 PM ----------
O also, once you get CWM. follow instructions of said ROM thread.
---------- Post added at 10:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:05 PM ----------
I'll even explain more. The reason its listed as "must flash GB Kernel" is because when it was written, thats what we had for a system.
System, as in the phone, will not boot up if you flash a kernel from a different android version. But will have no effect on CWM functions
I guess maybe thats the basis of my question... which kernel with CWM would be the best choice to load, since its a point of no return, in order to capture an initial nandroid of the phone exatcly as it is today with only root, before I pursue more hostile rom updating.
I just want to have a nandroid restore point to come back to so the phone is just like it is this very minute(or as close to as possible), not a clean wipe of ICS, but exactly as it is today.
The optimal choice would be the factory ICS kernel with CWM but that doesnt seem to exist.
Once I get that, then all holds are lifted and I can load one rom after the next until we have a winner. I'm no stranger to CWM. If she decides she liked it better as it was before I started, nandroid restore, and I can continue playing with my skyrocket on CM10-JB-SKY
There is no factory kernel with CWM.
Could grab an ICS kernel that has CWM, and flash that, boot into recovery and take a backup. but that dont help on stock kernel, becuase to get that you need Odin. and that should wipe data away flashing it.

As long as the kernel you are flashing has cwm baked in it really doesnt matter because ROMs you will flash from then on will have a kernel packaged with it. So just pick a kernel with cwm and flash. Make nandroid. Flash rom. Profit

should, but unless using a One Click Odin package, it wont wipe data. just flashing /system, or kernel, wont wipe /data
So, I'm still searching for a tried and true kernel with cwm which doesn't introduce a degradation in stock ICS functionality. Replies still don't seem to understand that a nandroid returning to some degraded kernel is not acceptable nor is wiping back to a stock ROM as that also defeats the whole purpose of creating this fall back plan, with preserving current state. The above is the number one primary requirement. Until that is satisfied, no factory resets or data wipes to new ROMs.
I'm really surprised so few people have any opinion on one kernel over another in relation to the released version of ICS. The skyrocket forum is loaded with kernel variations with pros/cons of each in relation to intended usage. I would think more people here would have experience given the phones popularity.

ATT Galaxy S2 i777 running the latest UCLE5 ICS from OTA, Gained root using [Heimdall][Odin][Stock][Root]UCLE5 Stock ICS with Root.
Which kernel / ver would you recommend to get CWM with the expectation that [Heimdall][Odin][Stock][Root]UCLE5 + "your recommended kernel" would be the permanent daily driver.
Any other ROM updates using CWM could very well be temporary and the above configuration would need to be ready and available using nandroid without loosing any current data.

Opinions are frowned on around here. While some forums get away with it, we dont like em.
fact is, that any ICS kernel that works with Touchjizz should work.
We dont tell folks what to flash, you gotta find that on your own.
There are stickies and such that can help you choose.

I understand why opinions might be frowned upon, but as stated in the other kernel thread, factual comparisons are frowned upon too. I'd prefer a factual comparison but in lieu of that the next best thing is an opinion/observation from someone who has already taken the risk. That's kind of the best thing about a community, sharing results. Its too bad this specific forum has lost that while so many others on XDA have not.
So I get any of them should work, but as a developer I also understand that none of them will work entirely the same. So, as far as I can tell, Siyah seems to be the the most popular initial gamble given my criteria... but that's merely an observation given the hundreds of pages of reading what was 99% muddy mindless unspecified chatter.
Thanks for the insight, I do appreciate it, makes me happy this is not my phone
Any of the options here are great. They all offer something different and only the person flashing the ROM/kernel can decide what's best for their needs.
The information needed is in the OP of the ROM/kernel as to what you can expect to experience while using it.
It works for us, and that's what masters. Don't like it? Awesome, you've got a different phone anyhow so it doesn't matter whatsoever.

Hello fellow nooblets and developers I just performed my very first root yesterday and I am still a bit cautious about moving any further with my device. Could anyone please give any advice on some roms I could flash that would go well with my stock kernel, I have the updated ICS with sense 3.6
Thank you
by the way I am indeed a noob
there's more than just noob's and developers on xda lol ... there's also contributors and alot of other semi-important people... but to answer your question.. what kinda of rom would you be interested in flashing? and i would suggest you do a little research on what type of rom's then amaze can use.. but over all here's a quick list to start your research..
AOKP
AOSP
CM
Sense
then there's what would you like.. a room with good looks? a rom with good battery life..? a rom with none to little bugs? etc.. how would you want your phone to be?

yes 4ext is the #1 recommended recovery for the htc, especially if your phone is S-ON.. and the list of rom's i'd recommend that i have used and like are
Speed Rom 7.8 or 8.0 by EclipzeRemix
Fourth Bar Infusion by Craigtut
CM10 by sportsstar89
they are more but those are my 3 favorites (in no particular order)
here are the steps to flash a rom (using 4ext)
download this super wipe script
do a Nandroid backup using 4ext... flash that super wipe script then flash your rom
clear delvik cache and reboot phone.. (unless the rom auto-reboots the phone after flashing it)
it's that simple

Hey guys this is the only thread I could fine that I could post on that was relative to my problem. I need help, I recently downloaded 4ext recovery on to my htc amaze 4g i dont know how to use it, and I just wanted to get back to my regular phone with its original settings. I have tried and tried but whenever i restart it just keeps on going back to 4ext recovery mode, how do i get back to my old regular system settings, I have a backup so any ideas are welcome even if it means deleting all of my stuff. thanks guys really appreciate it! THANKS
I am kinda new to all this. I just inherited the thunderbolt from my brother bc my other phone is dead. I am rooted and s-off running santod's Official Thunderbolt ICS deoxed debloated. My question was if I am able to switch to one of the older ROMS like NuSense ROM or UnSense ROM or anyone for that matter that I feel like. I know the process of flashing since I have gotten this far, but I don't want to flash these and then be in some sort of loop with problems.. Thanks in advance:good: Also are radios universal or.. I keep seeing people say just try a different one?
You can flash any ROM you like.
As for radios, look in the post about the ROM, they usually specify what radio is best for that ROM. The newest radio is defiantly needed for the new crop of ICS ROMs based on the official OTA as the older radios cause issues.
Only thing I can add to the first response... Always make a backup first. So when you somehow get into a bad flash/bootloop situation, you have an easy way back to a working device. Also verify your download by checking it's md5 code before you flash. Almost (if not all) files you download will have it listed with the download link on the forum op you're getting it from.

I NEED FEEDBACK ABOUT ROOT ON SLOT STOCK
If anyone try the rom on stock tell me please, maybe this is the big problem that my roms have
I have asked this question elsewhere, but I am still unsure of the answers. I have never installed a ROM to my stock slot. I know some people feel it makes the phone run faster, but I haven't seen a need. I honestly haven't found any ROM (ever.... On any phone) that is 100% perfect, so I wouldn't chance messing up my phone.
I have 4 slots available on SafeStrap. 3 are actually "set up". Not truly enough room to create a 4th. But I know, no matter how dreadful a ROM can be, my phone will be usable by booting into the stock side.
---------- Post added at 06:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:09 PM ----------
I don't touch the stock slot at all, except to install Titanium and freeze apps I will NEVER use. (Let's Golf comes to mind...) On ROMs I install, I actually remove apps I don't need or use, rather than freeze them.
For those who do run custom ROMs on stock side, are they much better? What happens if phone doesn't boot? Thanks in advance!

@sherri at the beginning of my newbie flasher time, I never flashed the stock slot (using bmm and always slot 1). The only reason using stock slot is to get more internal free space.
I cant tell the difference but in several occasion I do feel wind of change in term of ui response.
But always keep in mind to ensure that the stock slot is loaded with ROM before reboot to system. If you were accidentally wipe the stock slot and forget to flash rom in it, you brick your phone.
I have my lesson in hard ways (three times of bricking my xt910)
