just a piece of advice try installing TWRP as its much more better and is prefered to me. but i think you should atleast look at it and see if you like it. i liked cwm too but as soon as i saw Twrp ( another custom recovery) flashing was amazing compared to cwm

Root/unlock/instal rom one v

Guys,
Probably a milion times this has been said but I'm really a total noob. I just got a secondhand One V with following details:
SOftware 4.0.3 version
Kernel: [email protected]#1 PREEMPT
Baseband: 20.79.30.0835U_3831.24.00.23_M
I would like to install a clean / fast rom as now the phone is very slow but I dont know where to start. I know there are probably milion threads with the same issue but the more I read into it the more I get confused ( kernel, CWM, Bootloader etc). Can i please get a step by step that is really easy to follow and working? Is there a video tutorial perhaps? WHat custom rom do you recomend for this phone?
I know that I will probably get directed to the general forum and I really do apologize for posting such topic but any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

That explains almost everything. If you have a CDMA phone, I suggest the Rythimic Rom or the Slim Bean Rom. Go to each of their respective threads to find the kernels you need to install for them.

THanks mate, very helpfull.

Glad you got it to work.

Mobile network should work... At least on my hov it's working without problems...
However, changing rom should be similar to that guide... Just try and see which is best for you... :fingers-crossed:

Oh well I finally managed to brick my phone ( at least I guess) Its stuck on boot logo.
I wanted to install another ROM but I didnt first put the ROM on my SD card. I decided to restore my back up - the original ROM.
I did but when I rebooted it got stuck on boot logo. Then I figured I should fastboot flash boot boot.img which I found in the ROM i downloaded.
DId that as well but after reboot still stuck on boot logo.
Is there a way to fix this??? I was so unlucky with ROMS these days none of the ones I tried the Wi-fi/data Worked
Edit : FIXED!!!
I extracted the img from the back up ROM and now its all good.
Very Cool Guys

Thanks for the quick reply what can i do to fix this rrupert
For me, being fairly new, was to use the CyanogenMod installer. It does all the work for you, then you can flash whatever Rom you like.

I suggest you to use Odin to restore stock Rom from www.sammobile.com
When it's done, root again and reinstall custom recovery.
DON'T EVER TRY TO DOWGRADE

using safestrap to install custom rom to stock slot

I was trying to save some space on my phone and I'm looking to try and find a way to just flash the one custom rom i actually use on my stock slot. The rom works perfectly on my custom slot but I can't seem to get it to boot up right in the stock slot. I was told that this can be done so I was wondering if there is a tip or trick someone could give me... Or if I was told wrong! LOL
Thanks!

There is no safestrap or root for the AT&T branded Note 4, and there probably won't be, as Hashcode has retired. :/
Wow sorry i meant Note 3*****!!! Sorry wrong forum

Stuck without a ROM

Hey guys,
So, I have an M8_DUGL, S-ON, with hboot: 3.19.0
It is unlocked, but not S-OFF.
I can get to stock recovery; however, whenever I flash a custom recovery, it gets flashed successfully but doesn't work. It always takes me back to the bootloader page again when I press on REOCVERY. Anyone know why this happens?
I also do not have any OS installed at the moment, mistakes have been made and I wiped it out. So, I need to relfash it. However, it's been a real pain for me to find an RUU that works. I have a CID of J__15, and OS (supposedly): 3.33.401.6
Any help would bee really appreciated. Thanks
You will have to go through the root process again seems like you made a stumble in the process.. It happens go through it again and it should work properly but make a nandroid back up! Before proceeding!

Well, haha, I have nothing to make a nandroid back up with. I do not have a recovery and no ROM either. I was too tired, and messed up real bad.
So, my current standing is that I only have my sacred bootloader. I can access fasboot, but can't do anything more. Stock recovery works, but when I flash different custom recoveries, they just don't work. I've done many mods in previous HTC phones, so this is kinda weird to me why it's not working. Do you have any idea to why this is happening?
Did you use the same tool with the other htc phones? Or did you use a different one maybe you didn't root it properly.. If you can still access the stock rom. Try to root it again that's my best advice because it should work on the m8 I rooted one of my m8 must unlock the bootloader before anything tho and must root the phone properly this time.. Let me know if any other questions need to be answered

I can't access stock rom, ROM is wiped. I need to re-install it, but I can't since I can't get the system image, and can't use custom recovery...
Okay what carrier do you have? Ima see if my resources will find what your looking for.

You can use the old nandroid backup 1.45.401.12 - TWRP Thanks to kakyyabata from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376 and proceed with OTA again up to 3.33.401.6
Use the TWRP that support dual SIM. If I'm not wrong, the one link in my sig does. Or you read this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/htc-one-m8-dual-sim-european-version-t2816991
p.s I don't know what's the connection between rooting again with no OS problem.
You need OS then only you can root

No worries, thank you as well! Do you have a dual sim M8? If so, can you send me the link for the recovery you are using please?

Are you sorted yet? I have a dual sim M8 and I used to use a custom recovery, but changed recently to the standard TWRP, which now supports the dual sim version. You can find that on the TWRP site.

Hello, thanks for your concern! So, for the moment, I didn't have the chance to reflash the ROM, but I tried this recovery: https://yadi.sk/d/cMN-N_2hWotAH and it worked. I will give the official TWRP a shot when I'm done with exams! Thank you so much, I'll update this post when I fix my phone!

You might be able to get some help from the thread that you downloaded the ROM from that you're trying to flash. Since you're still on lollipop make sure that's not a marshmallow ROM you're trying to flash. Good luck to you. Once you get it all figured out you're going to love it!
