I'm rooted, soff, on dirty unicorn ROM with boot 1.40 on virgin mobile. Looking for a ROM that I can flash real quick to update my profile and prl and then flash back to a jb ROM. Any suggestions?

I'm not sure what roms are compatible with 1.40.
Have you considered using hboot 1.50? It's compatible with all GB and JB roms.
zr3d gt is a good one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551360
I'm not sure if it will work with 1.40 but I'm guessing it will. Worse that will happen is bootloop and you restore your backup.
I used harmonia and it worked. Everything updated and working now I'm running wild for the night cm build. Pretty pleased

My friend asked me to put a custom ROM on his thunderbolt. He still has stock rooted 2.2.1 with revolutionary s-off. My question is besides updating the radios is there anything I should do before flashing rom? Not my phone so i don't want to mess it up even though I ran him through the usual disclaimer.

He didn't want to wait so went ahead with the radio flash then ROM and everything went off without a hitch.

Hello everyone, I have seen and heard many amazing things about downgrading the bootloader, so I'm thinking of downgrading my evo 3d bootloader, but I would like to have some insights about it, the proper way of doing it, I took the sprint update and automatically updated to bootloader 1.58, I'm running meanrom ics v 2.6, and I used htc dev unlock, to unlock my e3d, as a side note, I must say that I haven't had any problems flashing roms, so far I have been able to flash any rom without any bootlops, so do you guys think that I could benefit downgrading to a lower boot, i hear 1.40 is good, remember that I took the update and I'm on htc boot 1.58, thanks in advance for sharing your knowledge with me.

If you want to flash aosp or GB ROMs, you will need to downgrade your hboot, otherwise, don't worry about it. If you do want to, you will need s-off.

Since you can flash ICS ROMs without bootloops, then don't mess with anything. You're one of the lucky ones!

All of those are aosp/aokp. Hence the bootloops. Downgrading to an earlier hboot
is the only option at this time.

The directions on the unlimited.io website specifically state the RUU and HTC unlock as requirements and not a stock rooted ROM. I think that might have changed with a recent version of controlbear.

Could anyone just try a stock rooted rom to see if it works, or does anyone still have the joupunbear older version that worked with them?

I have tried many Roms on this phone and I finally have s-off jbear. And so far nothing pleases me to the point where il use it everyday lol.. I got YAS4.v9. (Which is my favorite so far)Yesterday and it actually booted now that I have s-off but the WiFi doesn't work (when I try to enable it, it says error) no matter what kernel I flash with the Rom. I tried all 3 , stock, mirage, and buttered toast...no luck. On the page of yas4 it said hboot 1.58 recommended but after doing jbear s-off last night it changed my hboot to 1.57.5757 maybe that's the problem? I used to be on 1.58.0000 but with s-on yas4 never worked. If anyone has a solution to fix the WiFi error on this awesome Rom (YAS4.V9. please let me know) So now I am back to the stock ruu with the backup I made. If there are other awesome roms you have and liked please let me know. I would also prefer sense 4 roms but whatever works, works!!! Thanks for any help.
P.S: I've saw this gingerbread senseless Rom but I'm not able to download it and it just looks like a super fast and very lite rom. Anyone knows where I can download it? Thanks.

On the sense 4 Rom you have to do something with WiFi direct, don't know exactly I didn't play with it much. You were on the right track by flashing a kernal, but it won't help on that rom
If your going to flash anything other than sense ics, you will want to switch to hboot 1.50.5050
Once u switch to that hboot you can flash gb, jb, miui and some ics. Just make sure they are for cdma
I would recommend the hood pope
4.3 Rom. It is nice!
But there are a ton of roms and everyone has their preference.

Well i just tried flashed the 4.3 version. It booted successfully but as soon as the pull ring screen appears my phone just completely shuts off and reboots and it wont stop...So once again i flashed my stock backup. Do i have to be on hboot 1.50.5050 for this rom to work?
I guess I should explain when you switch the hboot 1.50 you will not be able to boot some roms. If you flash the wrong rom it could boot loop. so a good rom to flash would be butterz sense. I'm pretty sure it works on all hboots.
once you flash the ROM you need to change your hboot by flashing a pg86img.zip through bootloader
You do this by placing this file on the root of your SD card and rename PG86Img.zip
https://db.tt/qS7iQe0y
Reboot into bootloader and accept the update you will then need to boot into the Rom and delete or rename the PGI
86IMG.ZIP from your sd using a file explorer program
Reboot back to bootloader ensure that your HBOOT has changed to 1.50 then you can proceed to flash gingerbread or jelly bean roms, just make sure to backup before you do anything

Ok i might flash my hboot. But does the original rom you told me to get (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551360) Work on hboot 1.57.5757? All i wanted to know is if i needed the hboot 1.50 or is there another reason why it restarts? Im not in a boot loop. The phone boots but as soon as the unlock screen appears it will shut off and restart.
Yes, that needs 1.50

Soff won't change. You essentially got Soff so you could change hboots.
The op of a rom should say what hboot works.
If it doesn't say, general rule is
Ics = 1.57 or up
Anything else = 1.50 or below

lol..I wish i could find a way to flash this kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1866375) then i could oc the cpu to 1.9. What kernel do you use.. I would use the mac one but with the download link they supplied its not a kernel size...Its like over 100mb? that makes no sense..I just want my phone perfect. Hmm im guessing you have your phone all nice and tidy- What are you running? Kernel, rom, hboot, recovery?
I change often
Mirage is a great kernel imo
Right now I'm running the ics version of zr3d-XL. I'm on hboot 1.50
As long a you have a good backup, flash away and only do 1 tweak or add on at a time. Sooner or later you will Bork your phone....but with a good backup, you can usually save yourself pretty quick

O..well I flashed this gb Rom and it is very light and fast. But I tryed to flash mirage kernel and my phone wouldn't boot. I'm guessing its only for ics. I'm starting to think I should have bought the HTC EVO 4g LTE. I like this one but coming from the HTC inspire i thought it would be flawless with most games (cause that's what I like to do) and it still seems laggy. Try downloading arcane legends from the app store and tell me if it lags at all. It's an mmo and when I'm in an area with a lot of people it will lag. But the thing is when I'm playing on my friends LG motion which has the same specs as the HTC EVO 3d, except the motion has a 3.5" screen or something like that. It never lags at all. And all games seem flawless.. u could even try running nenamark 2 on your phone and let me know what you get. I got about 49fps once. You can get it from the playstore. P.s what kernels work with gb? Mirage dosent boot. I also tryed buttered toast non working either.

I played that game and didn't notice any glitches or lag, but I was on WiFi...
As for the test I got

As for themes! Once you flash the jb Rom, go to the store and look for cm 10.1
Themes, there are a ton:thumbup:
