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?

I am just tired of the lame sense 3.6 skins and I want the dre beats drivers to work, I was all happy after I rooted it lastnight and I found out that beats audio wont even work with 3.6, and my apologies to the contributors, I suppose without you we possibly wouldnt be having this conversation.
lol it's okay.. they are alot of rom's for the htc if you want i can suggest a few to flash.. but i must warn you that always make a nandroid backup before you flash a rom...and what recovery are you using?

He's not saying to flash a new recovery, he's asking which one you are using, and cm10 works, but with a few minor bugs like Bluetooth calling and echo

And if you have the 4ext recovery which you should have, turn on smart flash in the recovery and you can flash almost everything
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
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

Sorry I did not mean to sound rude or ungrateful, smartflash was disabled and I am using 4EXT, how would one flash a rom anyway, is it a kernel? =\ so am I basically s-off because smartflash is enabled? I would appreciate a list of roms
Thanks
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
i posted the list of rom's and you don't need to worry about kernels or anything like that right now, just make sure that smart flash is enabled on 4ext... then do a backup then flash the script i posted then flash the rom you want, its that simple..
Can you help me?
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

Did you do a full wipe? Data, cache, Davlik Cache?
It is a Best practice to do a full wipe when coming from a different rom or having problems with them. I had that happen to me and it worked well.

also where the hell do i find nandroid? and no i did that and it didnt work
from directory list im trying to install Stock_De0dexed_2.13.651
from there should i try installing the stock with goodies 1.80 after that? or should i just try working with the de0dexed first. as i type its flashing no problem the de0dexed. so crossing my fingers. i now have time to work with this because im not at work. before i was and my boss was getting pissed
sorry going to use edit from now on. phone works with de0dexed. i can boot it now. sadly there is no phone app, so its useless to me. im going to try to flash stock with goodies now to see what happens. wish me luck!!
FAIL! goodies 1.80 just makes it boot loop. need to find a STOCK ROM. someone please perform a system dump? PLEASE?
going to flash back to de0dexed then use an RUU that i found online to try to flash the phone to factory. unrooted updated to released version of the phone, and try to get it so i can update to latest version, then re root then nandroid this *****...
trying to use regawMOD to reflash the phone...

so what do i do....i went to that link and flashed the phone to the goodies. it boot looped. so i flashed the de0dexed, and it worked, but i was missing major applications such as phone, and people. so yea i got my phone to boot properly but sadly without phone and contacts...
Can I flash a Rom , I am HTC dev unlocked as of today and this is my first time being rooted this way, but I don't see super user so I can't use cwm so how can I flash a Rom this way, I mainly want google now working
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
That package that you need to flash is just to enable root on your ROM, if you have twrp already you should be able to just flash a new ROM, just make sure you fastboot the kernel. Unzip the ROM you are going to flash and put the boot.image in you adb directory and then type fastboot flash boot boot.image then jump into recovery wipe dalvik, cache and then factory restore and wipe system and then flash the ROM zip
Make sure to flash a custom recovery first. You need twrp before you can flash ROMs. Also you should read my guide. It goes over a lot of things you need to know to avoid any issues
I don't have twrp, and where is your guide located?
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
In my sig. Go to the team win website and get the recovery, make sure its for the evolte, it comes in 2 flavors, recovery.image and update.zip. update zip is probably the easiest method
Will I still b able to accept an ota on a stock rom
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
With stock rom you can accept ota, you have to make sure you have stock recovery. At this point there's no real benefit. The fixes to lte seem negligable

As a rooted user, you shouldnt be accepting OTA's. Thats just rooting 101.
There are some very persistent people around these parts lol
I went to the teamwin page and did the Android App Install Method, downloaded the app and chose install OpenRecoveryScript and got the error message unable to find a recovery for your device
Download their update zip or fastboot the recovery.image

You are unlocked correct?
Yes I'm unlocked, I just saw that as the preferred method so I was tryna take the easy route lol
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
The update.zip is the easy route lol fastboot requires you to open a terminal, navigate to the adb directory and the flash command with isn't all that hard, but is a bit more work and requires you to understand the termimal just a bit

Yes, I'm persistent about it. Recommending people take an OTA when they don't fully understand the ramifications of doing so isn't the right thing to do. This isn't just about attaining S-OFF.
If you think you're experienced enough to do so, fine, but someone who just unlocked their device today and doesn't know how to flash a ROM should be taught how to do things properly. That includes very basic things about rooting such as never taking an OTA.
/rant
Yeah yeah, sorry, i didnt exactly recommend it, I just didn't really make any attempts to enforce advisement against it. I'll give you the gas and matches what happens afterward is your responsibility. If they burn themselves, then they burn themselves, most of the users here are not children, they can make their own decisions. If they take the time to look they will see the issues posted.
---------- Post added at 05:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:40 PM ----------
And i wasn't talking about you being persistent, I was referring to the last 10 threads or so (that I've read, skipped a few initially) with other users asking the exact same thing. I'm pretty sure that in the last 4 threads or so the op mentions they know its not advised
But taking an ota from my understanding on a stock ROM will just make me lose root which if I really want to unroot when jb comes out seems like an easy unroot method since I only want root for google now as of now

cmx is pretty rock solid as it stands, they just have a few very minor issues, nothing that would be a show stopper. if you make the jump please turn off hardware overlay in the developer options and the automatically download attachments in the text message settings

That would be incorrect. By suggesting you not take the OTA I'm saving you from yourself really.
But in the end, you'll do what you want to do to your device
Can't save everyone lol I advised someone not to down grade from 1.19 and they said thanks and less then 10 min later same user is asking for help on his now bricked device

What version of Gmail do you have on your 3d, and is it AOSP, or ICS w/Sense. And by the way, if I remember correctly, we couldn't copy and paste in GB Gmail, so there's a win and a loss in this situation.

Please Advise
First of all, I stand corrrected. You CAN copy and paste in the GB version of Gmail. But that's besides the point.
I am not sure why the emails from XDA are UN-clickable. Have you tried uninstalling Gmail and reinstalling it?
Have you also tried backing up everything and doing a COMPLETE wipe? Or even test a different rom? Or a stock rom if you are using a custom rom?
Just trying everything that comes to mind...

Also what you could do is do a full Nandroid backup, make sure it saves to your external sd though, then do a full wipe, and flash in MeanBean. You could even then after flashing the Rom let it boot in normal, then see if you can open links.

Yes with MeanBean you would have to update the firmware, but it is well worth it. As far as going back after you've flashed the firmware... well I was able to flash in a non JB rom just fine afterwards. The best part of MeanBean Rom, taking into account your issue, is that FAPPLE is built into the rom as well as just about every other thing you could think of!

ClockworkRecoveryMod is more compatible with ROMs and mods that they post on XDA. TWRP, I think that is the other recovery you are talking about, has a better UI and seems to have more functionality over CWR but sometimes, ROMs and Mods need to be patched from .zip's written for CWR. Hope this helps. This is just a general way of looking at it. I'm sure there is more info elsewhere. Oh, also, CWR is like the OG of recovery mods, and TWRP is like the other G but not the OG. Haha, and effects? Not sure what you mean by that but both do about the same thing.

Both twrp and cwr can pretty much flash the same things.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
For me the main difference is the ability to name and rename backups that TWRP has. You can't really go wrong, they're both REALLY nice recoveries on the DNA.
I use TWRP but have used CWM too, both devs are really active in recovery development and very qualified. My previous device, I would have told you one specific recovery you had to use until recently. There was one kind of recovery that just always worked and the others didn't.
That's not at all the case with the DNA, both recoveries available are excellent. I just happen to prefer TWRP because of the layout, the way you can check the partitions you want to wipe and then swipe to confirm and get em all at once. And it also lets you queues multiple zip files and when you press install it will do them all at once. And TWRP has some beautiful themes if that's important to you. I dont often theme recovery though because the stock one looks just fine.
does cm 10.1 require clockworkmod? it might not be the case anymore but i thought you needed clockworkmod auto update with cm?
TWRP is better : actual touchscreen support, great backups(compressable to save space) lots of options, good interface, allows "ota" style rom updates through goomanager
Hello. Yesterday was my birthday and i got a used note 1 from my cousion. I came from the HTC evo 3D and i know how to fully root s-off, roms..etc. And i would really like to learn how to do the same to this phone as well. As of right now it has the 4.0.4 firmware on it ICS. I have never owned a samsung phone before and im really new to all of this for the note. I will thank any help i get! I cant wait to start flashing ROMS and kernels to this phone!! . Also once i flash the recovery how do i boot into it? And will i be able to flash roms directly from the phone? I know there is a program called odin that is used to flash recoverys and kernels i think. Last question would be.. Where can i find usb drivers for windows 8.1 for the note 1. Thanks again!

Ugh!! I flashed the twrp recovery fine. I went to try and flash a rom it didnt work and now i cant boot my phone wtf........Can i please have more help...
What rom did you flash? Some kit Kat roms require you using cwm recovery. Try flashing a different rom.

Well I just flashed a jellybean 4.1.2 ROM and it is working perfect. But I still want kitkat. I don't remember the name of the one I tried to flash. My main question is when I flash jb, ICS, or kitkat. Do they all just work after flash or do I need some kinda different boot thing like my HTC needed? Last thing is I could not find a flashable cwm recovery through Odin. Do I have to flash it with an app through the phone? PS: If it is as easy to flash things to this phone as easy as I think that would be awesome. So far I am LOVING THIS THING. Samsung might be my new favorite brand.. I had to do so many things to my HTC evo 3D just for custom kernels to be on it. Thanks for any help I get.

Update: Flashed cwm non touch recovery through the app. And I also flashed the candy shop kitkat 4.4.2 ROM, upon boot the WiFi would not work so I am back on the jb 4.1.2 ROM and I am now downloading hellybean jb 4.3 now. I wiped the data before I installed the kitkat ROM and there is no option in recovery to wipe the system so I guess every ROM I install it will overwrite which is kinda weird. I will try to flash the touch version of cwm later.. The one on the forum you gave me says access denied on my phone when I try to download the latest one. But It did work on my pc so I'll get it from there..

Glad your researching!
I also recommend reading the rom descriptions, and instructions. Some builders will clue you in as to which recovery to use, and what gapps need flashed.
I also recommend skimming thru the posts to see what issues other users may have had. They might of given you a clue as to why the Wi-Fi didn't work.

Can you possibly tell me what I can do to make my games run faster on this phone? I ran quadrant and got 3100 as the score. That seems a bit low in my opinion. Or maybe you can tell me what rom is faster. Idk.
