So I just successfully rooted my Aria, but that's all I've done...I'm kind of overwhelmed here and have no idea what to do. So what's next?
Also, for some reason my phone is saying: "Low on space; Phone storage space is getting low." and it wants me to delete apps i've downloaded. Is there a way to fix this since i rooted?
Just flash a rom and you should get all the blotware out
sent from my HTC Intruder
Yeah flash a custom rom..and also make sure you have apps to SD enabled and have a partion made on SD to save them there..this will delete everything on SD so back it up first. Try flashing cyanogen 6.1.1 ...its awesome!

I'll agree with installing cm 6.1.1 it's awesome! Also get setcpu, not just for OCing but great four power saving!

Alright, you have two choices, the CM 6.1.1 ROM or the FR008 HTC Sense liberated ROM.
CM 6.1.1 is better battery, but doesn't have htc sense. Looks more like stock android.
You can overclock on both.
CM6.1.1 seems to be faster to me.

Read up on them, and download one of them. Plug your phone into your computer and mount usb storage. Move the .zip to your sd card.
Turn of your phone, and then turn it on by holding the power button and the volume down button. Go to wipe data / factory reset, and do that. Also go to advanced > wipe dalvik cache. Also wipe the cache partition if you want to.
Go to install zip from sd card and find the .zip file.
If you have apps you want to back up, download an app called ASTRO before you start. Once installed, press menu, then select tools, and go to app manager / backup and backup the apps

Disconnect before booting to clockwork.
thanks everybody. the advice here has been very useful. I'm now on Cyanogen 6.1.1. Got everything setup and almost back to the way I had it before. I also solved my phone memory problem by moving all apps to SD and setting app download location to SD as well.
again, thanks all. and I'm still pretty new to this so I'm always open to suggestions.
EDIT: I can't open browser or messaging threads now...i keep having to force close it. Please help!

I have no idea what that means...
EDIT: Before I flashed the rom? No. Would a backup and reflash of the roms after wiping it fix the problem?

The flashing instructions are that you do a nandroid backup, wipe data, wipe dalvik cahce, and then flash the rom. Sooooo... Just boot into clockwork and follow the flashing instructions again. Be sure that you wipe data... this really is important.
okay i booted to clockwork, wiped data, and clicked the wipe dalvik cache. didn't nandroid because already did that right after i rooted. when i clicked wipe dalvik cache, it didn't seem do do anything...no graphical response like with the factory reset. then i installed the zip files for cyanogen mod and google apps. booted up and restored all my apps. browser still doesnt work and i haven't tested the text message thread view because i have no messages...
i got the roms from the big thread of roms on this site...
please help...
UPDATE: The messaging app works fine for now. The defualt browser still doesn't work right. It says "The application Browser (process com.android.browser) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." I just downloaded Skyfire, so it's not too big of a deal. As far as I can tell everything is working fine, but I'd still like to figure out what the problem is.
EDIT: It's now doing the same thing with with Google Framework, and doesn't remember my contacts or call log that i put in JUST this morning. And messaging is just like it was before. This was after I turned the phone off and rebooted later.
Sounds like you did everything right...try deleteding that file from SD and redownloading it..flash straight from SD ...make sure you follow all above steps again and make sure your not plugged in to USB ...other than that I see no reason browser wouldn't work...

I guess you already know steps but just you to be sure;
- Re download zip
- place it in your SD card with usb
- unplug usb cable and boot into recovery
- wipe data
- wipe dalvik cache
- flash rom (be sure that you still unplugged usb cable)
- boot
P.S: Or just try another rom to see if its working fine?
After the Aria is rooted:
Do I need to install a new ROM before using applications like "ROM Manager", Busybox or "Titanium Backup * root"?
Thanks.

No, once you are rooted you can install and use apps that require 'root' access like ROM Manager, Titanium Backup, etc.
Hey
I just got a update OTA however if I check i still have 2.1 JI6 Eclair
I dont kno what that update was but i kno alot of people have Froyo
I want to flash a rom .. but do i need froyo to use bionix v by team whiskey?
since i have eclair i have to use the bionix for 2.1 or update to Froyo right??
How would I update to Froyo.
No, it's actually better that you don't have stock Froyo on you, you can flash any 2.2 ROM straight from Eclair.
which kernel should i get with it?
ka7 with voodoo..
i want the voodoo and rom to optimize productivity
Go with [ROM] Trigger, I've been on it for a few weeks now and by far the most stable and reliable ROM I have tried, the latest is blazing fast + I added Over Stock to it and now my phone wants to fly off my hands.
Download RomManager from market and flash your recovery, you'll see the option.
Then flash the rom thru recovery and you are a happy camper.
Oh, yes, it comes with Voodoo as you wished.
Sorry, forgot the link:

well i have titanium backup set with everything backedup
but if i use trigger applying those setting would be dumb?
sry newb , ive been tryin to research for awhile
nm dumb question i think
i will have it and have my settings
You don't want to load any setting that you backed up from a different ROM, it will conflict the new one. When you flash, use these procedures to grant you a clean flash:
Download ...........zip and place on your sdcard
Boot into recovery and Wipe Data/Factory Reset Before You Move On
Flash .................zip
While still in recovery: Wipe Cache Partition, and inside the advanced menu: Wipe Dalvik Cache and Fix Permissions - Do Not Factory Reset Again
Reboot
After about 10 minutes, you should reboot again.
Done!

You just restore those from TB after re-boot. Make sure you only restore user apps though.
Dev. Do not recommend restoring apps on their roms since it might bring the bugs to you

You just make a batch in TB. So in TB just go menu>settings>batch> then RUN the batch the says "Backup all user apps". Devs only recommend you don't restore system data. User apps or third party apps are ok, atleast I do everytime.

Do the option "re-install packages", if it brings you back to recovery after that, hit it again and it will take you to CWM.
If non of the above works, consider this:

You might be already, but the NOOB guide an awsome thing to follow when rooting and flashing. Its got all the step by steps for first timers! I used it religously the first time. haha It should stickied in this forum, not sure though.
Everything have worked fine until now..
Latest things i did was update firmware on the camera, then rebooted and the camera worked just as fine as before.
I had two framework-res.apk's that i have moded from my own frameworkfile in kitchen, i did try both out and they worked just fine before, i did rename them and hade both in my bluetooth folder on the phone.. one circle and one guage battery framework modfile.
I wanted to go back to the guagefile, so i copied the file (it was renamed framework-res..guage.apk) and pasted it in the framework folder on the phone, renamed it and now it seamed i had two framework-res.apk files... thought one would overwrite the other, but no it didnt. So i checked what file was oldest and deleted that and rebooted, now i cant get by the samsung logo have tried everything and it just wont go any further
Could anyone help me with what to do pleeeeeease ? i can flash with odin, and i have tried flasing kernels unsecure and original with no effect, please help me !! i really hope this phone isnt bricked now
Put phone in download mode or cwm and flash a rom. Use a stock rom made for your phone.
I would prefer not to flash a new rom as there is many things on my phone that i dont want to get wiped away. I have some movies in the camera folder that i havent made a backup for yet and i just cant live without them, if they are lost i could just as well throw away the phone

root it , then buy titanium backup from the market and backup what you want , then flash rom , then install titanium again , then reinstall back up , easy peasy
your phone will have what you want on it still and hopefully be working again
have a good day
flashing a rom shouldnt clear your mass memory mate , your videos etc should remain unless you use the android restore function in settings or format it via pc

sorry didnt read post properley my fault :-(
still flashing a new rom wont delete your mass memory files
it never has on mine , as the other user said , wipe , wipe cache , wipe dalvik cache , if this still doesnt boot then flash a rom of your choice it may bring it back fine and your mass memory should be intact
leomar2.4 / 2.5 / 2.6 / doesnt touch the mass memory files anyways so your videos would be fine and you would have one of the best roms going
No worries
As it is now i can only get into odin mode.. down volume,home button,power button and get connected to the odin flashprogram, that is the only thing i can do
So even if my pictures and movies are on phones internal sd-card it wont be deleted ?? i just need to know this before i do something major like new rom.
I have a external sd-card to and i guess that wont be effected, but i dont know about the internal sd-card
Can i flash a rom without do those wipe cleaning stuff i read about that seams to be important to do before flashing a new rom ?
If it is just the framework-res.apk file thats wrong, cant i flash a new framework file with odin ? if for some reason there was something wrong there.
What rom do you use now? Wiping data wipes everything, wiping cache and dalvik cache shouldn't delete any personal data.

Just flash a stock ROM with Odin.
It won't remove anything, it'll all br there.

Wipe will only wipe /data and /system which will be user and system apps and data.
You wont lose anything on the internal sd card and ext sd card.
You can always flash the same rom as you had before over the top which should fix the framework.
just flash non wipe rom from intratech topic, it will fix it for you
or boot into recovery, do backup there, flash new rom and then restore advenced only data in recovery
and as was mentioned before, reset/wipe/new rom through odin will not touch pictures/movies/music on internal sd card only apps and app setup with data will be erased

Thanks everyone for your help, you are really a great bunch of people here, so fast and very helpful, thank you all so much !
I must admit that my heart stopped for a moment when i couldnt get it restarted, forgot to breath but i did as you said only thing is i didnt flash a stock rom, i flashed a very nice rom called lightning and im much more happy with my phone now then i was before... in the end it was a good thing maybe that this happen to me today, otherwise i would probably never have gone from stock rom, now im glad i did it's faster and everything is better, and i could just now flash a new bootanimation that i couldnt do before, i tried the cool pc bios boot and im very happy with that, overall it feels like a new improved phone
Thanks everyone !!! Have a great eavning !
All you had to do was boot in recovery, and adb a stock frameworkres.apk to the phone and it wouldve booted fine! Or made a flshable zip that copies the stock frameworkres.apk and flash that through clockwork!

This is a bit same way that you informed....But your guide is more easy than me(For settings method)...All is well but if we need to delete the .android secure folder,we need root permission too...and after deleting this folder our installed apps will fail to load main apks...So I think it is more easy if we give a factory reset from settings...it will do all automatically...
So just give a reset.....:thumbup:
Im not sure if im really a mesaed up guy or something, but the reset button is not working anymore. I mean i cant click it anymore. So i better try to do the other steps than factory reset… need to backup files now
Hi everyone, I have messed up my S4, but I think there is still hope.
I think I had installed the wrong ROM/GAPPS/kernel into the phone (I'm kind of a noob)
Let me list the problems and whats stopping me from fixing the phone:
- When I try to recover my phone using my backup I get a MD5 mismatch (Recovery mode still works)
- I have a ROM .zip on my phone, but when I try flash it I get a "expects 5 args got 4"
- When I try use my phone, I am spammed with "com.android.phone" has stopped working. The only way to use the phone is using the phone in the tiny intervals after closing the notification (which is half a second), so its click, then close, then, click, then close and it gets extremely annoying
- I have a tried a complete wipe/reset and it didn't help
- PC recognizes my phone as a MTP device, but wont let me see any files
- I cant navigate through my files using File Manager either, but I can in CWM Recovery
- I tried downloading the ROM straight to my phone, but the error "cannot create download directory on sd card"
- After navigating the phone for 5 minutes it completely freezes and goes black, and the only way to use it again is to factory reset
Please help me
So what's your phone model and what rom did you flash?
GTI9505 and I think it was a 4.4.4 GAPPS (I am a big noob)

Well there are lots of things you can do.
1. Flash a stock rom
2. Use some wifi browser (Airdroid) to transfer a different custom rom to your phone and flash it.
3. Put the custom rom on a external sd and flash it.
Make sure to perform a full wipe in the recovery though.
Sometimes things like this happen but it's nothing serious.

No just wipe before flashing.
Flash Philz touch, then turn your phone off and boot into recovery. Once in you are in the recovery, wipe cache and dalvik, then find the option 'clean up phone to install new ROM'. After it has finished cleaning up your phone, try flashing the zipped ROM again.

What would be the point in flashing PHilz because he already has a custom recovery (CWM). CWM can wipe just as good.
