I've unlocked the bootloader of my Desire X, but whenever I try to install Android revolution, it gives me a bunch of errors saying the file couldn't be opened, any rom I stick on the SD has trouble being read by Nexus recovery , I've tried 3 other SD cards. Also after I rooted the phone, I still can't give applications such as Titanium backup root privileges because it says it couldn't find the root binary?
I've got Nexus recovery installed on stock 4.2.
I've also wanted to try other recoveries, is it as simple as flashing a new one through fastboot or do I have to do something else?
I really need help, so I'd be grateful for any you can offer me

If you are on stock 4.2, you also have HBoot 1.25, so maybe you can't install these roms because your HBoot it isn't 1.24 or lower.
Try to re-flash stock recovery, then flash neXus' again.
Or maybe it can be kernel stuff, did you flash the attached boot.img?

But the rom does say it is available for 1.25+
and do I have to flash a stock recovery? Can't I install another recovery (not stock) by using the fastboot command?

Also, is there a recovery that's sure to work with Hboot 1.25 JB?
If so, can I just flash that recovery over my current one?
Anybody?

Can you just provide help for me on here? I'd really appreciate it.
Here's my situation in case I wasn't clear in OP, I installed the Nexus recovery but it wasn't able to flash the rom I wanted, so now I want to flash another recovery, and was just wondering whether I could just flash another recovery on top of the old one or if I have to do something else?

Look in the 'Desire X Original Android Development' Section for a TWRP recovery for JB hboot. It's working great for me. You can flash it the same way you flashed the NexusRecovery (fastboot)

Yeah. You can just flash it over the NexusRecovery. You never have to go back to stock.
Okay, I just flashed TWRP over my current recovery.
I've tried to flash Sense revolution and it just fails through TWRP, why is this?
Wipe the phone and try again.
Maybe It can be because of MD5 verification. Only happens on that ROM?

Hello, I just got my Rezound today and the first thing I did was Unlocked the phone, Installed CWM and Rooted it Via [TOOL] [7-3-2012] HTC Rezound All-In-One Toolkit V2.1.
Everything was working fine. I could get into CWM recovery. I could still boot into the stock rom.
Next I downloaded NeWts-One-XxX-RLS-3.1.2-odex-signed.zip.
I wiped data/factory reset. wiped dalvik cache. installed the rom successfully..
When I reboot, I get stuck at the white HTC boot screen. I can still access CWM. I tried wiping and reinstalling. I tried downloading a different version of this rom. Nothing worked.
Should I try installing AmonRa? Can I just install right over CWM?
To clarify, I have not done anything other than what I have just said. I have not installed any custom kernels. Did not make a backup of the original rom (because it froze mid backup). I did not even use the phone at all before unlocking/rooting other than to make sure it booted.
Thanks in advance
Mike

Thanks for the reply :good:
You need to extract the boot.img file from the rom zip then use fastboot on your PC to flash it.
If you're not sure how to set up fastboot, I believe the all in one toolkit contains the needed files, following the instructions in the thread to download, install and use it.

Be aware that if you are on Gingerbread firmware (you are!) and running ICS ROMS, you need to flash the "Oldfirmware" patch to mount the SD card correctly.
Since you are S-on...every time you flash a rom you will have to flash...
1. The rom
2. the kernel (boot.img) that goes with the rom. You'll either have to pull this out of the rom itself or most dev. provide it as a PH98img file to flash in bootloader.
3. If an ICS ROM...flash oldfirmware patch.
ALSO, you didn't mention it but there is a patch to RLS 3.2.1 that correct some minor bugs. Its on themikmik ! Have fun.
EEK....use AmonRA NOT CWM

Why are you wiping after you flash the rom?
Just flash the rom, flash Gapps,...reboot.
If I remember correctly, I needed to pull the boot.img from the 4.4 tiKtaK Alpha ROM and flash it with Fastboot to get the ROM running.

Try just going back into recovery again, don't wipe anything, reflash the rom and Gapps.
If you are not s-off, then yes you will have to fastboot flash the boot image as mentioned above.

Ok so I booted into CWM recovery and flashed the rom and then gapps. After a reboot it is still getting stuck on the quietly brilliant issue. Could I have an older radio or something? I came from a 10.1 nightly. Thanks for the help.

That's definitely possible.
I would suggest hunting down the latest available radio for your device and falshing it if you aren't on it already.
I see Andy has posted these, I don't know if you guys have anything newer or not...

Dang yeah im on current radio (1.53.06.0919). I'm stumped, I just tried the whole process over Locked bootloader, then unlocked, fastbooted cwm recovery and flashed rom + gapps. It keeps hanging at the htc screen, what are my options?
Ok for now im rolling to stock via RUU. I relocked the boot loader to do so.

Did you verify that you had a complete download?
Check the md5 sum of the file you downloaded against what's on the server.
I know you already reverted, but that's the only other thing I can suggest really.

Silly question, but are you sure you have the correct gapps? Maybe flash just the rom and see if you can complete the boot process. Then install gapps.

You're definitely using a TWRP recovery made for JB hboot? @GtrCraft, did you put the right boot.img inside the zip?
Also, you can try flashing a custom JB kernel of your choice.
@dansou901 I believe so, flashing this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2344254) work like a charm (except for the rom that hasn't got any wifi, ...)
How can i check to be sure?

For booting that ROM a CM kernel is needed. As you have installed one (if it works like you said), you need to install a JB Sense kernel (just pick one from Original Android Development section). Then reinstall SuperSense and you should be fine.
I'll give that a go and let you know
@dansou901 , i've used this boot.img (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2337389) because i've already been able to flash that rom as well.
but now i can't seem to get rid of my previous custom rom. i've done a factory reset, i wiped everything there is to wipe, i've flashed the above boot.img and supersense but it's still another custom rom on my device :s

That's a CM kernel as well. I told you to use a Sense kernel. Use this one for example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2483489
and your recovery should work again as expected. Btw, which recovery did you install? Please give the link.
this is the twrp recovery.img http: // teamw . in / project / twrp2 / 140 (yeah, can't post outside links yet)
i'll give that one a shot

That one's made for ICS, if I recall correctly... Don't use it. Use this one instead: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2099513 But be sure to use a JB version.
After changing my recovery, finally i was able to flash the custom rom. I used the boot.img you gave me, but is that going to affect some of the features in the rom?
And i would like to thank you allready

No, it's not. You can however choose the kernel yourself as I said... But keep in mind that it has to be a JB Sense kernel (just read the OP of the kernel thread carefully, then you'll know). For recoveries, keep this in mind.
No Title Here
The boot.img in the SuperSENSE-dx5 zip is stock, every JB Sense kernel should work though
