Hi,
I'm running a Vodafone HOX+ with
Android: 4.1.1
Sense: 4+
Software: 1.14.161.18
HTC SDK API: 4.63
HTC Extension: Sense45_1
Kernel: 3.1.10-g262c6aa
Baseband: 3.1204.167D.31
Build: 1.14.161.18 CL122573
CID: VODAP102
Now I'd like to root it an run Evolution HD 5.1 on it.
Could someone point me at the most important threads in order to get me through the process.
I already loaded the ROM. Do I need to flash a Firmware as well?
What role does my CID play with regard to rooting?
I'm no complete noob. I rooted and flashed several ROMs to a defy+. Pain in the ass BTW.
Used Clockwork mod back then. Eversince I had Clockwork mod on it, flashing new ROMs was very easy from that point.
Thanks in Advance.

Probably the best one, Its all in one!
I followed the instructions. When I got to "Flash your kernel" I flashed the Kernel delivered by the Android HD Revolution 5.1 thread.
Now my phone won't boot. I just get the white screen with the htc logo. Is this a boot loop?
Pretty much. Did you flash a recovery after you unlocked your bootloader?
I accidentally flashed "your own recovery" first. Whatever that may be.
Then I flashed CWM (INTL Model) and after that once again flashed "Your own recovery".
Like the tool said I then put then Boot.IMG into the kernels folder an then ran "Flash kernel".
Now I can hold the off button and the screen goes black for like 3-5 seconds and then it goes on again (without my interaction).
Then it gets back to the htc logo.
Sometimes the red LED above the screen is constantly on. Sometimes it's constantly off.
Please help
I might be wrong but the kernel that comes with that rom is already in the zip file for that rom. So all you have to do if boot your phone into recovery mode and install from sd card the zip file and it should do everything for you unless you have a different kernel!
I went into recovery mode and was able to install the ROM. After it I said reboot and it's still not getting beyond the htc logo...
Do I need to wipe cache or something after installing ROM?
Update:
After installing ROM it's gotten worse. I'm not able to go into recovery mode any longer. I see Clockwordmod Recovery loading, then the phone reboots. Tried several other images, also TWRP, but it's also rebooting.
Somebody ?
I flashed the image that was in the zip after flashing the Rom for several times and then my phone suddenly worked. Thanks for the help

Hi,
Due to HTC's special touches, the recovery image doesnt stay flashed, and on normal boot its flashed over (meaning if i try to go to recovery after a normal boot, i get the red triangle stuff, and have to pull the battery). I was wondering if this would potentially cause troubles if i was trying to flash a custom ROM from recovery? in other notes, i do find sometimes i have to pull the battery 4 or 5 times to get it to normally boot (thats without holding the buttons >.>).
Thanks in advance.
HTC HERO recovery image flashing problems
I am having exactly the same problem!
I did a quite a bit of research on how to root, backup and flash my HERO and every guide I found describes the process using Universal AndRoot + Rom Manager and it seems there should be no problems. I already rooted my phone successfully, installed Rom Manager and flashed either ClockworkMod 2.5.0.1 or RA Recovery 1.7.0.1 which are able to boot but only once. The next time I reboot I get the red triangle warning and it loads into stock recovery (by pressing vol_up + powroff buttons), so the custom recovery lasts only one boot cycle. I was able to backup but I don't want to risk to wipe and flash since there is a chance it might stuck in the bootscreen loop afterwards and I won't be able to do anything.
There is a thing with s-off and SPrecovery which helps to resolve the problem but it doesn't look like there is anything for HERO.
Any help would be appreciated.
ps I tried to manually flash recovery from inside the phone and from windows command line with the same result.
forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/8182-how-to-root-your-hero
posted some similar comments over there, and the only init script that i can find when in recovery.
Yeah I posted my question there too.
I was able to find some information about the issue (he is talking about Villain ROM but I think it doesn't really matter):
pulser_g2:
Repeat the process again, as I think stock ROMs try and overwrite the recovery each time they boot. When you finish the process, immediately nandroid and flash VR12. That will then flash a new recovery, AmonRA 1.6.2a, and you will be sorted

So it looks like we should just go ahead and flash a custom rom which, in theory, will eliminate the problem.
yeah was tempted to just flash, but sending duck my system img for him to dissect anyway.
yeah worked fine, running cm6.1 now
Yeah once you root you have to flash a custom rom before reboot or u loose the root
I learnt it after lots of reboots and re roots.
but now I wanted to know if I could save the original rom which i have as nand backup to make as an update.zip like custom rom for safe keepimg
I flashed CM6.1 -based TastyFroyo 1.2 and I can confirm custom recovery stays flashed now.
I have a Evo 3d, hboot 1.50 latest radios, prl, pri. I had OMJ's latest Rom, and used Flash Image Gui to flash a custom Kernel package; I flashed Tiamuts "Tiamat_E3D-v1.1.0-Sense" http://downloads.tiamat-dev.com/8x60/110/Tiamat_E3D-v1.1.0-Sense.zip, and rebooted, then my phone was locked up on just the HTC screen.
I can still access the Bootloader, and Fastboot, and Recovery. I tried rolling back to my nandroid backup, and also reflashing the stock kernel through recovery (as the Rom won't ully load), and now all I get is a black screen after the HTC logo, and the phone is responsive to power and capacitive buttons, but no display at all.
Tried full wipe, and reflash of OMJ, even CleanRom.... Just black screen after HTC logo.... Any Ideas ? With Bootloader, Fastboot, and Recovery, you'd think I could unbrick, but no luck.
I'm sorry... I'm not a complete noob, I've been on the scene since early TP2s, and always rooted and custom rom’ed my Evo 4g.... Please help guys. Thanks in advance.

Since you're on the HTC unlock method, in order for the custom recovery to properly work, i.e. flash all partitions including the kernel/boot partition, you have to access the custom recovery differently than the traditional method.
The proper command and method to access the custom recovery in order for the HTC unlock method to grant it write access to the kernel/boot partition is through fastboot. The full command is: fastboot boot c:\cwm-recovery.img . Once you've temporarily fastboot booted the custom recovery, you can then properly flash a ROM or restore a nandroid as both will be allowed write access to the kernel/boot partition.
Appreciate your support in using my application! Hope that helps!
Deleted my own question. I think I found a thread where it will be more appropriate.
Like joeykrim stated, you must access the recovery from fastboot to be able to flash kernels, nandroids and what not from recovery if you used HTC's method to unlock you phone. You are not bricked. It is fully fixable.
I have Clockwork Recovery flashed, always have (the only version compatible with Hboot 1.50, v4.0.1.4). I still have full access to the Bootloader, Customer Recovery, and Fastboot. But despite reflashing a fresh Rom (2 in fact), full wipes, reflashing boot.img with stock kernel; all the phone will do is boot past the HTC screen, vibrate, and the screen goes black. Capacitive buttons are responsive, and so is the power button, just no display. ...... Idk what else to Flash to get this phone booting again, any ideas ?
I had same problem I have 1 file name PG86IMG.zip I don't remember from where I downloaded 1st Iplaced this on SD root folder and turn on phone with volume down and power button and it care of everything

You arent bricked if you can still get into fastboot, recovery, etc. I would recommend using this app called Flash Image GUI on the market, it's only $0.99 and I am (as we speak) flashing ziggy's dual core kernel. Oh wait my phone rebooted now. Its fast as all get out and my WiFi works (yay). But like I said this method is the EASIEST way to flash kernels!

I think the file you're referring to is the RUU (ROM Update Utility) file which can be placed in the root of the sdcard as PG86IMG.zip and flashed to competely reload all stock software (radios, system, kernel, etc) on the device.
These files are available at http://goo-inside.me/shooter/ruu.

Seems as if there is some issue with the display. If you confirm you have adb access to the device, I would think the issue lies in the android /system. If you don't have adb access, I would think the issue lies in the kernel/ramdisk.
Either way, if you want to eliminate both issues, reflash my Stock ROM - [ROM] joeykrim-original-1.2.0 Odex *Stock Rooted 2.08.651.2*, which will reload the stock kernel and the stock system with only adding in root access. I run this ROM as my daily ROM and it works great for keeping the phone stock but allowing root access.
Make sure to access the custom recovery through, fastboot boot c:\android\cwm-recovery.img . If you load the custom recovery through adb reboot recovery, or bootloader and selecting recovery from the menu, the HTC unlock method will not grant recovery write access to the kernel/boot partition.
Worse case, my stock ROM with stock Kernel doesn't resolve the display issue, you should flash the stock RUU files at http://goo-inside.me/shooter/ruu . If that doesn't resolve the issue, you'll prob need to exchange/return the device as it would seem to be a hardware issue.
Hope that helps! Good luck!
For some reason I can only run stock rooted on my Rezound. I've tried both Clockwork and Amon Ra with no success. I know how to flash ROMs, this is my 6th or 7th Android phone and my 3rd HTC Android phone.
I just relocked my bootloader and flash the stock RUU to restart from scratch and start over. Still, I can't flash ROMs. I put my ROM on the sd card, boot into recovery and wipe data/cache. Then I go into the boot loader and flash the kernel. Then, I just get stuck at the HTC screen forever. It's extremely frustrating considering I'm coming from the Galaxy Nexus where I was running an ICS ROM (not the stock one) and I thought the Rezound looked cool so I picked it up. But now I'm stuck on GB.
Am I doing something wrong or missing something? When I first unlocked the phone Saturday I tried to flash an ICS ROM but got stuck at the HTC screen. Then I flashed a different one successfully but it was buggy so I flashed a GB ROM and played with that for a little bit. After that I got stuck and couldn't flash anything without getting stuck at HTC, so I flashed a stock, rooted ROM and from then on that's all I've been able to use.
Edit: So I just tried manually flash the boot.img from the PH98IMG folder by doing fastboot flash boot boot.img and it successfully flashed yet I'm STILL stuck at the HTC screen.... The method ONLY works for the stock ROM for me.

What kernel's are you flashing and what roms ? I know I have ran into trouble with the anthrax kernel with having to flash a stock GB kernel first . It seems for me at least going from GB to ICS or vice versus I have the best luck using stock kernels first. Once, the rom is loaded it has been easy to switch to custom kernels.
So maybe make sure for the GB roms your flashing the stock , unsecured kernel and for ICS the " leaked kernel " that everyone is using for a base.

I'm just flashing whatever kernel comes with the ROM. By that I mean the PH98IMG file that contains the boot.img. Or should I be actually flashing a kernel in recovery?

So your taking the boot.img out and flashing it in fastboot ? that should be fine . Otherwise , put the PH98IMG on the root of the SD card and flash the rom in recovery then reboot to the bootloader (Amon Ra) and let the PH98IMG flash the kernel then reboot phone.
Try one of the ICS ROM's that have the kernel built into the install and follow the instructions which is basically flash ROM in recovery, let it boot to bootloader, press power, vol up when asked etc.
If they offer a separate ph*.zip then it is not automatic

So I have been doing it right. I've done that many times and it hasn't worked. I'm messing around with other kernels now, I just flashed this kernel on my stock ROM and it's working, so maybe I can flash an ICS kernel on an ICS rom and everything will work. We'll see.
I installed CleanRom and the kernel it came with and it does one thing differently......... it boots to the HTC screen then after about 10 seconds it reboots back to recovery. This is driving me nuts, I can't flash ANY rom. CleanRom has never worked for me but I did manage to flash a few roms RIGHT after getting the phone on Friday.
I've only been able to successfully install BAMF Rezound Cubed 1.0.2 which is a GB ROM. I've tried to installed Ineffabilis v1.3 which is also a GB ROM but it remains stuck at the HTC screen.
I believe the only other ROM I've been able to flash successfully is Ineffabilis-Deus-v1.0.2-Odex-ICS 4.0.3 sense 3.6, which IS an ICS ROM.

I think BAMF Cubed changes/upgrades your mainver. You should get a "mainver is older" error when flashing the ph98. IMG. Is it possible that you got the error but didn't see it-looking away at the time? If so, the easiest way around the mainver issue -imo- is scott's cleanflash tool.
There are many threads about mainver issues. It may be worth checking.
Edit- I re-read the thread, I may be wrong, dunno.
CleanRom will reboot to fastboot after flashing, press power and wait a second or two to install the kernel. This won't work if you DO have the newer mainver.
Hope this was helpful.

As far as Ineffabilis GB, I haven't updated to v1.3 but I can tell you for v1.0 it stays on the white HTC screen for quite a while before booting up. Maybe you didn't wait long enough?

So does CleanROM. First boot is a lesson in patience.
I put my ROM on the sd card, boot into recovery and wipe data/cache. Then I go into the boot loader and flash the kernel. Then, I just get stuck at the HTC screen forever.

It sounds like you're missing the part where you, you know, actually flash the ROM. The kernel zip and the ROM zip are separate; the kernel (normally found in PH98IMG.zip) is flashed in hboot/fastboot, the ROM (where the zip is called whatever) from recovery. It doesn't matter which order you flash them, but if you flash an ICS kernel and you try to boot before flashing the ICS ROM, for example, you'll get stuck on that white HTC screen when trying to boot.
Many ROMs have a script built in that when you flash the ROM in recovery it will create a PH98IMG.zip and automatically reboot you to the bootloader so you can flash the kernel. It is done this way because if you put the PH98IMG.zip on your sdcard and flash that first you'll have trouble getting back into recovery to flash the ROM after. The hboot won't let you select recovery with that file on the sdcard (obviously, reboot recovery from the OS/ADB still works, but if you reboot and flash the kernel first, you have no way into recovery without removing the sd card). I usually only copy the ROM to my sdcard (not the kernel) to prevent getting locked out of recovery. Go into recovery, wipe data/cache/dalvik, install zip from SD, select the ROM (not the PH98IMG.zip kernel), then reboot into the bootloader and manually fastboot flash boot boot.img. Obviously you don't have to do it that way, that's just my usual method.
Hope this helps somewhat.

I waited like 5 minutes, I know the initial boot process usually takes longer but it usually doesn't sit at the HTC screen for a long period of time, it just seems to hang on the boot animation but I can't even make it that far.

All CleanRom does is sit at the HTC screen for about 5 or 6 seconds, then it restarts into recovery on it's own. Both the ICS and GB CleanRoms do this.

I am flashing the ROM. Most roms just put the PH98IMG then automatically take you to the bootloader to flash the kernal. I've done that, probably 10 times. Then I manually flash the kernel when required too.
Like I said, this is my 7th Android phone, 3rd of which being HTC. I've been flashing ROMs since December of 2009 when the original Droid was rooted. I'm not new to this, that's why I don't understand why I'm having such a difficult time.
Hi guys, got a htc dna, unlocked fine the bootloader, installed clockwork recovery.
Did a fastboot flash recovery and entered the recovery.
Tried to install viperrom, at first it was going just fine, when i entered the installation process(after all the choices), phone crashed unexpectedly, and reboot. Tried to enter again recovery, it crashes. No rom now, the phone shoes white htc screen.
Still having fastboot option, i tried flashing again recovery,flashes just right, but then again after i start it,it just crashes!!!
I had previously done the same process in htc one x, without problems. Now in droid dna, i can't understand what went wrong!!!
Any ideas, what to do???!!! THanks!
lock plz wrong section, sorry!!!!

im having major issues here with my device it all started with me trying to flash it to cynogenmod 10 which apparantly my device has the s-on so i was stuck in the cmod boot logo, luckily i backed up my device prior to that with the stock rom and everything so i restored successfully back to my stock rom. then i was reading along some forums to see what the problem was and i came accrosss this forum "http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-lte-all-things-root/606748-how-install-kernels-s-h-boot-1-15-a.html" which gave me a few options on how to flash kernels with the right one that will work with cynogen mod, i chose option 1 because it said it is recommended which the steps were to take the rom "boot.img" file and copy it over to the android sdk platform tools folder and open up a cmd and i flashed the rom "boot.img" which according to the forum that contains the kernel that belongs with that rom i did what it ask went to fastboot mode and typed in fastboot boot boot.img, which succeeded, when i rebooted the device it boots up acting like it is trying to open up recovery mode which is twrp recovery, after that it does nothing it blacks out and a little white bar flashes on top of the screen from time to time then it turns off and reboots and do same cyckle, i attempted to go back to twrp and restore my stock rom which said it succeeded but when i rebooted it did the same thing acted like it was tryning to boot up to recovery being inforemd with those red letter about developmental purposes only stuff, so i factory rested my device wiped dalvik cache and cache and even wiped the system rom and restored my back up with stock rom and nothing works still, please help i am stuck please!!
You probably need to pull the boot.img from a stock ROM and send it via fastboot since your trying to go back to your stock backup.
thanks, but now i got the cynogen mod 10 to boot up now for some reason the touch screen does not respond to the touch neither does the capacative touch buttons work either do you have any idea what it could be?
If you have the 3.16 OTA update then you're touchscreen firmware is incompatible. If this is the case your stuck with 3.16 based roms. Cm will not work for you.

Yes. If you have the 3.16 update the only way your going to get cm to work is to s-off and downgrade you're tp firmware.

I'll try..
First and foremost you need to go here http://themikmik.com/showthread.php?13192-RADIOS-RECOVERY-FLASHABLE-Jewel-Radio-Collection&p=220556&viewfull=1#post220556 and download the boot.img only for whatever version of the stock rom your backup is.
Put it in your sdk tools and open a command prompt and fastboot flash boot boot.img
Go to twrp recovery and WIPE cache, dalvik, factory reset, and system.
Restore your stock backup.
Reboot.
If you can get back to your stock rom, then you should read up on dirty racun or possibly facepalm to gain s-off if you want to run cm.
