it made all my ringtones and notification tones disappear. i flashed through recovery so im not sure how to get them back
[HTC Sensation] robkow:
Hello.

I've got problem with installing ROM Android Revolution HD 7.3. I bought Sensation, it's rooted, S-OFF, bootloader is unlocked, 4EXT Recovery Touch, I've flashed Universal Firmware 3.33. I done wipe data and wipe cache, flashed ROM but after reebot it's stuck on Beats logo. Nothings happened. I also tried do full wipe by superwipe script for Sensation, but that doesn't help. It still stucks on Beats logo. I aslo tried to flash boot.img via flashboot and cmd command. I unziped ROM file, found boot.img file for kernel which I want to install (faux) and flash it via fastboot. Then install ROM via installer included into ROM. After that it doesn't work either.

Can someone help me? I manage to flash different ROM: CM11 with ION and 3.0 kernel by Sultan, but i want to try Android Revolution HD. Maybe my battery will live longer ;)

I appreciate any help.
[HTC Sensation] Mile_zdr:
how long did you wait on beats audio logo? because first boot up takes time :)
[HTC Sensation] robkow:
Couple of minutes. No longer then 10, for sure. You think I should wait longer?
[HTC Sensation] Mile_zdr:
nope , i think 10 min is enought..
[HTC Sensation] robkow:
Ok. Maybe someone else have a solution.

By the way, I see you've got a ViperS 5.1.0 ROM. Could you tell me how it's works? Especially the battery lifespan.
[HTC Sensation] Mile_zdr:
For me is great , but you have to try it yourself :)
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
for ARHD 7.3 ROM if it has in aroma installer to choose a kernel try with the stock one and see if it boots

make a full wipe from recovery before flashing the rom
[HTC Sensation] robkow:
I've already tried every one of 3 included. But I will try do it again now and wait for longer on Beats logo.
[HTC Sensation] robkow:
4EXT Recovery Touch v1.0.0.5 RC5
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
try to update to the latest one

even redownload the rom and check md5 sums
[HTC Sensation] robkow:
I reinstal ROM again and it works. I don't know why, but it works. Thanks everyone for help, though ;)

note i have downloaded flashtool-0.9.15.0 and C6903_14.2.A.1.136_Global-LTE_1277-2880_R1B.ftf , am i good to go ????
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eclyptos:
Yes, you are good to go. Flash .136 FW and wipe Data, Appslog and Cache. It is recommended to do that, if you will try to keep your data you can face many problems, just wipe everything and you will be fine.

So I don't know why this happened, I had rooted and installed TWRP and was happy, so I tried to install Malladus (1.2.9) and gapps and the 24a upgrade .zip, and now here I am.

I've tried most methods, and the LG Flash tool just says "failed PreviousLoad()" when I click the yellow arrow.

I f'd this phone up 12 hours after I got it.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PallyBud:
If you see the LG boot logo than there is still a chance to fix the phone. Try to manually go back into recovery. Turn off the phone by long pressing power button. As soon as the screen is black, press power and volume down together, you only get a half second to do it. When LG logo appears release and press them together again until the factory reset screen comes up. Then press power 2 or 3 times and you should go back into your recovery. Once there you can try to reinstall rom, backup or side load a new rom. Hope this helps!

Same problem

Hi guys, like an idiot I was successfully able to install the debloat 4.4.2 on my vzw LG G2 but I tried to flash nandroid recovery back to my 4.2 and now I am stuck on boot loop and cannot get back into recovery. I tried to hard button by pressing both the bottom button and power, and press it again when the lg logo comes on and after pressing the power button a few times, it just goes into a black screen, so I cannot get back into recovery in this manner. Anyone know how I can get back into recovery without going through the full wipe back to factory?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] finallygreen:
So my Evita that I rooted/flashed back in October is finally starting to bug out. Six months of smooth sailing, but now it's having Wi-Fi problems, reboot problems, etc. I'm going to go ahead and use it as an opportunity to flash to something newer, but...perhaps someone might be able to tell me what would cause this kind of behaviour? Is it something that could be fixed without reflashing? Something I should just expect over time when I'm using custom ROMs?

Anyways, I have been re-reading up on this stuff to prepare to reflash. Again, I did root/s-off/flash back in October...at that time the Sense 5 ROMs were very early/rough, so I went Sense 4 (CleanROM 6.5). My current bootloader screen reads like this:

*** TAMPERED ***

*** UNLOCKED ***

EVITA PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

CID-11111111

HBOOT-1.14.0002

RADIO-0.19as.32.09.11_2

OpenDSP-v29.1.0.45.0622

eMMC-boot

Jun 11 2012, 14:36:28

Currently installed recovery is TWRP 2.6.3.0

So with all of that said, my goal now is to get as updated as possible, and flash a stable Sense 5 ROM.

Would anyone mind helping me figure out the right plan of attack to do this?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
The only thing you need to do to prepare for a Sense 5 ROM is to upgrade your firmware, I have detailed instructions on my How-To Guide For Beginners thread in my signature. Don't ask for a recommendation on a ROM because doing so isn't allowed. To say one ROM is better is to infer that the others are inferior in some way. This is disrespectful to the devs who spend their spare time bringing us these awesome ROMs free of charge. Each user has different tastes anyway, the best way to see which ROM suits you is to flash a few and find out for yourself.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] finallygreen:
Oh absolutely...in fact you mentioned that to me months ago when I went through this the first time, so I most certainly wasn't looking for a ROM recommendation...just wanted to know what I'd have to do to get where I wanted to be, and in what order I should do it :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] finallygreen:
timmaaa, I noticed you recently told someone who was getting an Evita together for his father that he should go with this firmware:

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23060877490004040

Because it would allow him to go Sense OR AOSP.

I suppose there's a slight chance I'll want to mess with an AOSP ROM, so should I stick with the one you linked there, or perhaps this one?:

Well I guess it really HAS been a long time since I've done this....the folder with fastboot and all of that is still on my PC, but the PC is NOT recognizing the phone at all. In fact, if I plug the phone to the PC via USB while in fastboot, the screen shows "FASTBOOT AC" rather than USB.

USB Debugging is ON. HTC Sync Manager is not seeing the phone either. How did my PC suddenly stop recognizing my phone? What can I do to troubleshoot this?

[G2 Android Development (D802)] LenAsh:
Made this from the new 80220B Vodafone DE kdz.

This is the complete LG KK 20B ROM - nothing missing or messed with.

If you follow the method below exactly, no Audio glitches, no Touchscreen problems.

You can flash SuperSU and get root if you wish - your choice.

I provide this assuming you have an understanding of the terminology used below and appreciate that any flashing activity has some risk.

I strongly advise against using any form of restore from previous backups, such as TB or Nandroid.

Once the process is complete, custom recovery will be lost.

Method:

Download both the ROM zip file linked below and SuperSU zip file (if you want root) and copy to your SD card.

You need to be already on Rooted JB or PURE CM11 with either TWRP 2.6.3.3 or 2.6.3.4 or TWRP 2.7.0.0 (nothing else).

Reboot to TWRP recovery

Wipe: System, Data, Cache. Dalvik (nothing else)

Flash the ROM zip - ignore any "FAIL" warnings.

Wipe Cache and Dalvik (nothing else)

Go to the Mount page in TWRP and select System (leave the other defaults alone)

Flash the SuperSU zip - ignore any "FAIL" warnings

Reboot

Done

Don't use AutoRec to flash TWRP - you will lose Knock code.

Alternatively - if you have flashed TWRP on another KK Stock ROM (using AutoRec), you can full wipe (not SDCard) and flash this directly without going back to JB.

[G2 Android Development (D802)] Daidodactyl:
Hey, you mentioned in this thread that you were going to upload a flashable ROM with knockcode.

Is this what you were talking about? You don't mention Knockcode in the OP. Also at the moment I'm running Stock Kitkat, rooted and with custom recovery. Do I just go into recovery and flash this? (Assuming I have the right TWRP and I wipe Cache and Davlik) You have said its okay to be on rooted JB, just wondering if being on rooted KK changes anything.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] ephumuris:
Yes this is the latest with Knock code. It would be fine to flash from any other KitKat ROM with custom recovery. Make sure you make the correct wipes.

You forgot download link!

Also PrimaryGPT.bin is partition table so may have issues with phone storage size after flash... I could be wrong and it could be fine...
[G2 Android Development (D802)] LenAsh:
Download link on its way - uploading to G Drive this time not effing Mega.

I'm not testing this build - I don't want Voda bloat and 80220C Open is perfectly fine for me in all ways - I cannot for the life of me understand the hankering for Kock code.

PrimaryGPT.bin

is for the partition( 16gb or 32gb)

and it can be excluded from the rom
[G2 Android Development (D802)] LenAsh:
well... of course the 2 additional .bin files could be excluded together or one by one... or left there.

Vodafone DE have both 16GB and 32GB variants, IIRC. Which may be why those files are there. So in theory it shouldn't matter if the whole ROM is flashed.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] ephumuris:
ROM wouldn't be stock if those files were removed.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] LenAsh:
Anyone who has flashed the kdz itself would have had the 2 files anyway, and it works.

You can't install recovery and have knock code due to the older kernel!!!!!!!

[G2 Android Development (D802)] albsat:
Ok, you are right. I forgot that this release has a new kernel which needs to be modified in order to have the recovery back.

However knock on doesn't work after rooting. Maybe it is gone as an option. I moved to other roms and it is gone there forever. Pls read the link I mentioned.

Unfortunately the update touch firmware didn't work for me. But I found out that knock on is lost only when knock code is chosen as lock option.

---------- Post added at 07:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 PM ----------

And it makes sense that knock on wouldn't work with knock code because they work against each other.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] LenAsh:
So, ROOTING prevents knock code working? Really? Another member PMd me to say it did work??
[G2 Android Development (D802)] mlm1102003:
autorec change the kernel and boot.img

(to have recovery(all ways) that flash and change kernel)
[G2 Android Development (D802)] LenAsh:
Yes we know that - but ROOTING doesn't change the KERNEL.

What I'm trying to ascertain without all this obfuscation is that ROOTING does NOT affect Knock Code.

I'm aware that using AutoRec changes the kernel and thus destroys Knock Code.

So, the REAL question, yet again, is: Has anyone Rooted ONLY (using ioroot25 or the method I suggest) and retained Knock Code?
[G2 Android Development (D802)] LenAsh:
I'll put a mirror up shortly.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] albsat:
Ok. Let's sum it up. I got a bit of panic.

I used philz recovery, installed as you instructed. Knock code works. When you choose knock code as lockscreen option, the knock on is disabled. If you choose swipe, knock on works.

However, if you install autorec, the knock on doesn't work on other roms too, this is what I found out.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] LenAsh:
Still doesn't answer the question...

AND

Just a disclaimer note for other potential users... I personally DO NOT recommend PhilZ for this flash - as clearly stated in the OP, only 3 versions of TWRP are KNOWN to be completely reliable and recommended if you want to ROOT.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] mlm1102003:

The build date of this rom is newer than the 80220c open europe? kernel is newer too?
[G2 Android Development (D802)] LenAsh:
Ignore build dates - the 2 ROMs are very different in terms of Vodafone customisations and a kernel version that supports knock code. Neither of these factors makes the ROM "better" than 20C. It just depends what the user needs.

(I'm sticking to 20C (an excellent build) on my wife's G2 and CM11 + KK baseband on my G2 - because they both provide exactly what we need.)

[G2 Android Development (D802)] LenAsh:
Not had any issues on my Open EUR 20B or 20C - not used this 20B Voda version as I have no interest in carrier builds or knock code. My daughter uses 20C on my 2nd G2 and she hammers it and still gets over 2 days battery and no issues whatsoever.

Not inferring this applies to you, but most of the queries regarding performance or stability are the result of poor wiping regimes or folk using backups. Which I obviously try and steer people away from in my OPs.

That said, JB 10F is a very well sorted build and would be the one I would choose if needed. Enjoy!
[G2 Android Development (D802)] djpeesh:
Yup. I've noticed that the jellybean firmware is the most sorted out so far. Haven't tried the KK open Europe build c because I just got fed up of the bad battery life with the India KK build and I also had a weird issue with the network in the open Europe b build.

Weird because it's pointless (in my bathroom I wouldn't get data connectivity I don't know why). This drove me up the wall. With jb, it works perfectly.

Oh well. There's very little that Kitkat has that jellybean doesn't. May take the plunge and flash the Kitkat Europe c build. Already tempted to root and shove in a custom recovery. And of course, freegee makes it easy as cake. :P
