Hi Guys am quite new at this however i've been doing some research on how to install [ROM]KaosFroyo V30 on my Eris but i have not found any instructions or guide and so i was wondering if anyone here could help? by the way i am running the android 2.1 version released by Verizon an HTC and hopefully this won't be a problem.
Google is your friend, also the Eris root app might make things easier.

first question is are you rooted?
i think the phone's rooted now!
well i used the eris root app and when it asked me to i used the KaosFroyo V30 zip and it seemed to install ok, then i boot up the device and after an initial boot screen i get a screen saying android in blue and like a white light inside i don't know if that makes any sense but that's where the phone stays. i guess i am rooted now but then phone won't fully boot up

The first boot can take 10+ mins. Wait it out.
well the phone boots pass the skatebording androids and then it shows "ANDROID" with a while light scrolling through the letters and is been like that for about an hour now.

ok so this is what i did i downloaded eris root app i ran the app rebooted the phone as instructed by the app turned it off again then held down volume down and pressed power. then i chose recovery and from there instead of using the default zip file i used the "kaos v30" zip file everything installed well then i just rebooted the device. since then the phone doesn't boot completely it just says android and it just stays there.

turn off, turn back on holding the end button and the vol UP, use the trackball scroll to backup/restore click the trackball, click nand backup, let it run hit vol down, scroll to wipe, wipe data and wipe dalvik, hit volume down hit flash zip click on the kaos v30 zip assuming that its on your sd card and let it run and then reboot shouldnt take much longer than 10 min to boot up
Thanks everyone for the help specially Funnyface19 your last suggestion solved my problem my phone is working great!

good luck and remember to always do a nand backup before flashing anything...saves more lives than seatbelts
The thing that you did different was wiping caches before flashing. That's why it works now.
BTW, NAND backups are important, but the one you made this time was worthless.
A NAND backup makes a copy of your system. Unfortunately your system wasn't functional when you created it.
Use this as a lesson. Always do a NAND before you change anything. That way you can restore to a working system.

Hi guys I was messing around on the HTC DROID ERIS and I may have damage my phone. I change the wrong NV items. 435,436,1192,1194 and now phone keeps turning on and off. it only gets to the skate boarding green dudes. I try adding a custom rom but i dont think i am rooted. I try doing the system wipe but as soon as it reboots to enter that mode it reboots and reboots again same system. I can only update with the PB00IMG.zip but does not changes anything. I can only keep it stable on the hboot usb which I dont know what else to do with that. anyone has any idea on how to correct this issue...

Well I was rooted and and had lagfix on my fascinate. Then I decided to download the new update from verizon today. After the update the update screen kept on popping up even after I already installed it. Then I found out that my apps that require root like autokiller and setcpu did not work anymore even though I still hade the superuser app. So I rooted my phone again restarted it and the apps worked again then I decided I wanted to do the clockworkmod installation thing so I could make my phone flashable, the instructions recommended that i remove lag fix so I took my phone plugged it into the pc and went to my ryan lagfix folder whatever on my desktop and clicked on the unlagfixme.bat thing and at the end it had some errors or something even mentioning the Innopath Activecare in it which was for some reason probably why it didnt work. So I decided to try it again and it didnt work. Then I rebooted the phone and I saw the samsung logo and then black screen! I CANT BOOT UP!!! WHAT DO I DO!!!!!
follow this your going to have to go back to stock, then redo everything.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=782204
Also, Do not install the Verizon update, it is not made for rooted phones. Wait for one of the devs to post a root friendly verizon update.
if that doesnt work, take it where u got it and tell them u did the update and that s what it does after the update.

No i did not I was going to but then it said lag fix is not recommended so I went to the folder with the lagfix stuff from Ryan and clicked on the unlagfixme.bat and there were issues. I saw innopath activecare some where in the error part or whatever, so something with the update from today or some thing. Dont know what to do now! Stuck on that stupid black screen ANYONE HELPPP!!!!
Had the same error, hold the power button and the volume keys till you can boot recovery. Then do a factory wipe and then after you get back into the phone, do a factory data reset.
It's the only way I got my phone back. Now time to figure out how I can remove the root and re-root .
My vibrant running a rooted froyo started to act up today after it wouldnt play my mp3 files, saying how its the incorrect format or something. So after it said that for every song i restarted the phone. I get past the phone boot screen and i even get to see the bar up top that i could usually slide down but the rest is black, i hold the power button as if im going to shut it off and the power menu comes up and anything i do freezes the device. The bottom soft touch keys are turning on but seem to have no effect on anything the phone does. Im also getting these weird vibrations out of it every so often.
I got into recovery, tried deleting the caches, still nothing so i formatted the system partition since it gave me an error every time i tried to restore it. now its stuck at the vibrant screen.
Help please

well if you restored the rom and it dont pass the first screen you should install a kernel such as dead horse, dragon, overstock...and it should work because ive had that before
Easiest way is to Odin to stock...you are trying to run the wrong kernal on whatever rom you are using...they are incompatible
Sent from my simple honey vibrant
now i lost my clockwork recovery screen, when i press install update.zip it says that there is no such file. Il try stock now.
Back to stock now, working fine. I think i lost all my data though, i cant seem to find clockwork on the internal SD. Any way its still there?

ok brother so now reroot the phone and flash anything again... just read instructions and make sure its for vibrants
If bet you installed a non voodoo kernel over a voodoo one and it wiped your internal SD card....you news to toto the vibrant Bible and get the update.zip, move it to your internal SD...then reboot into recovery, then reinstall packages might have to hit reinstall packages twice...then you can flash whatever rom u want

Its working now, just need to update to froyo now. I guess next time i should get titanium back up as well as clockwork recovery. Off to start over again.
Thanks guys

Hi, I am pretty new to this stuff, so bear with me here.
I recently rooted and installed eclipse v 0.5. Everything went well except I did not get my contacts and figured I did something wrong in the original ROM. I decided to go back to my original rom...but decided to wipe data because I thought that was the right thing to do. Now I have no idea how to restore the nandroid backup because I don't know how to get to clockwork recovery.
Help would be appreciated.
Thanks

After you flash a rom the first time you use bootstrap you have to click install recovery

It has been my experience that after wiping data the bootstrap recovery is gone. Or I guess I shouldn't say gone but it will not boot into recovery after data wipe.

weird, I had root and bootstrap still installed after wiping data/cache and dalvik cache.
That Might Have Been Read Wrong, By Flashing Recovery I Meant Pressing The Install Button. To Me That's Flashing The Recovery.
Have you tried just plugging in the phone to the wall charger. Yes wall. And wait to see if it goes to recovery mode.
If it doesn't work all I think you can do is sbf and start again.

ok:
what do you do if said event happens where your recovery doesn't load through after the rom installs with the wipe/cache wipe
your phone boots, however your usb conditions are stuck on usb mode rather than charge mode.
the initial setup starts but is stuck in a loop of force closes that never end.
i have successfully used Roms in the past, no big deal. when **** hits the fan i use sbf; but i'm stuck in limbo where both recovery and sbf are seeming to be out of my options - unless i can change usb mode to charge mode by some strange form of buttons pressed.

Unplug your phone. Hold volume up and power on until you see the m logo and rsd protocol starting.
Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk
well that allows rsd to find it but - it won't just flash it and call it good. i'm getting all sorts of errors from rsd saying something about my ini
Code:
Failed flashing process. Unable to retrieve initialization value from INI file (0x7029)
i get this error before the above error (before i actually "start" it)
Code:
Chipset type 53 is not supported
restarted computer:
updated drivers:
no dice, same errors
EDIT: the problem was in the RSD version i was using, i got everything working now. thanks!
Good afternoon all,
So last night I updated to Neutrino 2.2 using the normal factory clear/dalvik cache wipe and finishing with installing the .zip
The only difference in this case is that I downloaded the zip using my phone over Wi-Fi.
Unfortunately for me, the phone will only boot to the Motorola logo splash screen and go no further. In the past I have recovered from a backup but I am unable to in this case.
I have tried re-wiping and reinstalling the ROM multiple times hoping for some luck but....I never got lucky =(
I assume the .zip was corrupt some how and caused this blip.
Anything now is....How do I recover? I have full access to the recovery but am unable to mount the internal storage and I do not have an SD card.
Advice please?
Neutrino V2.2 has a problem where the first (and only first) boot will hang. Just pull battery and reboot. Also, make sure to do the wipes before flashing and not after.

Cheers dude, I'll give it a go now.
Also, I am wiping before and not after ;D
WOW! I've been without a phone for a whole day and it was THAT easy to fix?
AHH dude wtf! Everything is back to front? So when I swipe left on home screen it goes right and right goes left. Even the buttons are screwed ;(
ok it fixed itself....LOLOLOLOLOL
Dude, has the market been removed? Because I haven't got it.
I am so noob today, I know I must install the .zip via recovery!
Yes, you have to install the "Lite Gapps" add-on from the second post in the Neutrino thread.

Glad you got your phone working again. I'm just chiming in to say a few nights ago my phone did the same mirror-image thing (on the Wet Dream rom, not sure it matters). I'm not exactly sure why that happened. My best guess is the CPU temp was a little high (around 60C); it stopped after a few minutes, coincidentally after it cooled down a bit.
but yeah, got a little worried when it persisted after a complete reboot... :/
my phone wont turn on!!! i mean it'll go to the part where it says "HTC quietly brilliant" but its just stuck there...then i would the press the power button again and it'll just do the same thing. SOMEONE PLZZZ HELP!
Need more information. Did you flash anything recently? Are you S-OFF? Can you access recovery? Did you try to run the RUU or reflash the ROM?

its S-ON, yes i can access recovery, the only thing i did was try to change the font using Font Installer then it rebooted after that it would go on HTC quietly brilliant logo then blacked off, i hold the power button but it did the same thing over n over again for an hour. So i thought if i factory reset it it would fix the problem but i think i made it worse cause now its just stuck on HTC quietly brilliant logo, I left it there for couple of hours and went out hoping when i get back a miracle would happen and it'll be fix but when i got home its still stuck on that logo. I still can access recovery though. This is my very first rooted phone and i have no idea what to do next.

What recovery are you using, TWRP? Had you flashed a ROM prior to tinkering with fonts? Did you make a full backup of your stock ROM after HTC unlocking to load your recovery? I am going to make some assumptions to my questions. If you are using TWRP you can mount the sdcard from recovery and copy on another ROM (pick one to use ... MeanROM?). Even if you can't mount the sdcard from recovery you can still get a ROM on to your phone by pulling sdcard2 from the external sdcard slot and manually mounting/copying to/from your CPU.
If you made a backup of your stock rom after loading your recovery then the first thing to try is wiping everything (factory, caches, etc...) and restore the backup. (Sounds like you may have tried that already).
If that does not work then download a different ROM and try it ... MeanROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1727167) uses it's own splash at start so that may help (because it sounds like you are stuck at the HTC splash).

When you get in recovery wipe cache, dalvik cache, factory reset, system. Then reflash the rom, you will be fine.
Sent from my lair.
It seems to be that some people are having problems with flashing other fonts (source). ALWAYS do a nandroid backup before doing any of these types of modifications to your phone in the future, it's the fastest way to fix broken things. Also make sure that the fonts you are trying to install have been working with our phones and the newest versions of Android and/or Sense.
Here are some things you can do that might fix your bootloop. In descending order try these:
If you have a current Nandroid backup, restore it. It will get your phone working 100% with the least amount of data loss and won't require you to set it all up again.
Re-flash the same ROM you have (if it's stock, it can also be found in the Android Dev section of the forum). This will likely fix the problem. Especially if it's a font issue.
Hope it doesn't come to this but run the RUU that matches your system. This will completely set your phone back to day 1. You'll have to reroot, etc.
Best of luck. And remember to do nandroids often! :good:
THANK YOU GUYS!!!! i was about to give up
i did what you guys told me to do, download a different rom install it on my sdcard and flash it in recovery. AGAIN thank you guys so much, ya'll just made my day. MUCH APPRECIATED!!!
Anytime you can access recovery you are fine

Your getting stuck there because of some of the fonts you checked dont change and **** up the phone for whatever reason happens to me all the time when i try to find out which fonts are safe to change just wipe system andcaches and install back up your good if you want a list of the fonts i found to be safe i can post that once i check it on my fone
