Are you sure you have CwM 3.0.0.5?
What color is your text in recovery? Also, make sure you are flashing from recovery and not Rom Manager.

I need some help installing roms. I am not new to installing roms, I have been installing roms since I had my T-mobile wing. Then I got a G1 and rooted that as well. I have 3.0.2.4 recovery installed and I am trying to install Viritous newest rom 1.1.5. I have installed before 1.05 and it worked fine I just changed it to another one. My problem is once the phone loads the rom it just bootloops to the white Mytouch4G screen. I have wiped cached and format as well. I haven't wiped the SD card yet. I hope I don't have to.
How long do you wait on the white screen?

Make sure you wipe the dalvik also. How are you trying to to install the rom through rom manager or actually from recovery itself?

Actually just check out the stickies in this section. The first one covers this pretty in depth.

Because I'm running on a rooted 2.2.1 phone. I followed gfree's ultimate root and now I want to flash a mod , so do I have to update my software?
Anyone ?...........
You can just start flashing. You're already set. Just make sure you boot into recovery and make nandroid of your current rom. Might want to update recovery through rom manager before anything though.

I just started flashing ROMs to my phone and I do want to have the ability to run ROMS that have the sense UI. Every time I flash one, all these processes start crashing one after the other. I can never get to the homescreen. :/ Also, I LOVE the way the MIUI ROMs look, but this one process crashes every 5 seconds or so and it really gets in the way of using the phone. Is there a fix for this?
What recovery are you using and what version? Also, are verifying the ROM's MD5 before flashing?
Looks like a failed eMMC or a bad download. It successfully flashes in CWM though?

I thought about failed eMMC, but didn't think the ROM would flash or boot at all in that case. It's possible though.
have you verified the md5 sum?
done a full wipe?
Are you flashing the rom by itself or are you flashing anything else with the rom simultaniously before booting up? Like a theme, mod or kernel. Is always best flashing the rom alone, booting up, doing a nandroid and then flash anything else on top.

Are processes crashing before you get the to the GUI, before setup is complete, or after setup is complete?
Incidentally, MIUI is not a Sense ROM and is part of the AOSP/CM family. It sounds like you have a problem that extends to both types.

This is the reason why I asked the op if they boot up the flashed rom before flashing anything else.

I was wondering if the OP has got some bad apps that get installed by the Market on every ROM that is flashed.
I solved my MIUI problem by wiping everything before I installed.

You're supposed to wipe everything before you flash any ROM...

Don't worry bricking your phone is unlikely unless you do something silly and don't follow the guides correctly.

Welcome to the section. Check out the guides for rooting and installing custom roms on your phone. There isn't really a big chance of getting your phone bricked. Once you root it, you'll feel alot safer because the worst thing that can happen is a bootloop. (Which can be repaired!)

Its fairly simple when you actually do it, revolutionary does all the hard work for you. The guides just look scary as there's so much in them.

Try it with and without the phone plugged in. I think you'll probably have to have it plugged in.

okay i did all that now its stuck on the cyanogen loading screen what can i do
You've done the hard part don't worry its not broken. It should take around 5-10 minutes for first boot anyway so if its only been a minute or two and the rhythm of the boot logo is still turning smoothly and not pausing or restarting just leave it a little longer but if the logo freezes and restarts over and over this is called a bootloop. Easily fixed by rebooting into recovery again then select the wipe menu and wipe dalvik cache, cache and data then install your cm7 zip again. Everything should work then.

hmm i may have ruined it then for i just re did the installing of RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.2_R_Radio_13.45.55.24_3.35.15.31_release_130814
then left it at that for it worked then lol, is there anything i can do to get it actually done from there

yes i can still get to clockwork recovery by rebooting into hboot and going through recovery, ive also got the super user app in my apps
Just check in hboot that you are s-off and as you can still get recovery you're good to go, remember to wipe dalvik cache, cache and data when changing roms, if its an update you might get away with not wiping data sometimes. You'll get the hang of it soon enough. Before you flash cm7 again just run the backup in cwm then if it goes wrong again you can just restore.

Can I use TDJ'S newest kernel on creamed glacier beta 6.1?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Yup. As long as you have an ICS ROM and ICS kernal, it's all good. Creamed glacier should've flashed a kernal with it. Oh well yes it is safe and usable.
I don't see why not. Make a backup and try it out.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Thanks! And also I tried to flash it when I booted beta 7.0 but when it said it was going into bootloader the screen went black and the physical keys stayed lit... pulled the battery after 10 min
Am I doing something out of order?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
What did you do? Did you make a backup to restore?
First flashed 7.0 then attempted to flash new kernel. Phone froze. Then I changed the apn so I could use data and flashed clockworkmod(did not try to flash kernel after flashing clockwork) and restored to an older rom.

Weird. Don't know what went on there. THAT'S WHY YOU ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP
