This is a stock kernel, except that adb root is permanent.
Removes the need for psneuter if you lose root access for whatever reason.
Flash via fastboot, cwr appears to still not work on kernels.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img

Pure Awesomeness...LOL...Nice BUD!
still can't get adb to recognise my phone in fastboot... I tried every driver that I have found an windows says that no driver is available... windows 7/64bit
Install HTC sync 3.
Also, adb and fastboot are mutually exclusive.
I use OSX, I grabbed the fastboot for mac binaries from HTC's website. But I can't get fastboot to run and flash the image. HTC says I should place fastboot anywhere on my system and then navigate to its path to use it but that just isn't working?

I'm currently trying to install your other kernal, and after I moved my Fastboot.exe file into the platform-tools folder and executed Fastboot boot boot.img my command prompt is stuck at < waiting for device >
I cannot input anything into the command prompt, but I have control over my phone in fastboot.
any advice????
nvm
installed htc sync 3... coming from unrevoked I didn't install this cause they said it interferes with the root pkg... all this adb stuff i'm starting to actually like adb commands... just got to watch the typos... fasboot doesn't do anything lol
Make sure you set fastboot-mac or fast boot as chmod 755
chmod 755 ./fastboot

Then you would run it like
./fastboot flash boot boot.img

Always add the ./ before each adb command and fastboot command when using a mac. I had to learn that the hard way back in the day.

How does this compare to the kernal in your rom thread? Coming from a DX, I'm new to the kernal stuff. Thanks.

Instructions: How to flash boot.img via fastboot For Mac
Requirements:
Rooted Thunderbolt
Ability to boot into the bootloader. (I used "./adb reboot bootloader")
1. Download fastboot-mac.zip and the boot.img
2. unzip and place fastboot-mac into your platform-tools folder
3. Place the downloaded boot.img into your platform tools folder
4. Open terminal and cd your platform-tools folder
5. Run "chmod 755 ./fastboot-mac"
6. Now run "./fastboot-mac devices"
7. You should see "HTxxxxxxxxxx fastboot" after running previous commands
8. Now to flash just run "./fastboot-mac flash boot boot.img"
9. it should say "sending 'boot' (3008 KB)... OKAY" and "writing 'boot'... OKAY"
Your Good to Go
10. Thank adrynalyne for the kernel
Also thank you tavella for the chmod 755 part of this.
Finally team AndIRC, Jcase and all.
Enjoy!!! PM me if i have made a mistake or if you have something to add.

Hey guys i have this old HTC Tattoo i would like to use for a while i need to test things on.
HTC Tattoo (Orange)
S-on
1.6.61.43 custom firmware
rooted
But i have a problem, i need to get a custom ROM on it.
so far:
1. Would not accept sim unlock code
1. Rooted it once
2. used RUU_Click_Orange_UK_1.67.61.43_release_signed_NoDriver becouse it was needed to accept the simunlock code
3. Lost root, rooted it again with Universal root becouse old method didn't work anymore.
4. Everytime i tried to open recovery menu, it shows a picture with a orange triangle and the phone next to it
5. Installed ROM manager and put Clockwork, nothing.
6. Tried to back up, install rom from ROM Manager, still nothing =(
HELP D:!
Question: How do i fix it so i don't get this trinagle thing and i can go into the recovery menu
EDIT: I forgot to add, i THINK i made the SDCard a Goldcard, but i'm not sure... how do i cheak?
still no reply? kay:

answer
1. That triangle is stock recovery which isn't useful for installing custom roms.
2. You need custom recovery.
3. You need adb.
4 You can install recovery like this one click http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=950759 or manualy using cmd(adb needed).
If installing manualy: You need flash_image and recovery.img .
For cmd, commands are:
adb push recovery.img /sdcard/recovery.img
adb shell
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
exit
exit
Hope this was helpful for you
Sorry if you waited too much, I didn't have time to answer you.

I followed the instructions it didn't help, still same problem
no errors with the .exe, but no dice either
flashpermission denied with manual cmd
not enough memory on the device
in rom manager it says i have clockworkmod 5.0.2.0, might be the the problem that my phone is on orange or that it is S-on ? becouse i'm pretty sure it has custom recovery and it is rooted
i was able to root with this method before i used "RUU_Click_Orange_UK_1.67.61.43_release_signed_NoDriver" update
Now i am not able to use that root method, maybe it would have worked before i used it...
How do i downgrade or whatever from this RUU ?

You need to use adb to push a rom in recovery.
While in recovery use the command:
adb push rom.zip /sdcard/
Then you can flash it

I know you don't have a rom on your phone. This is how you can push one to your phone.
You must be booted in recovery
Put the rom in the same directory on your PC where you have adb.exe
Open up the command prompt from that directory. (hold shift and right click--then choose open command window here)
Then type the command-- adb push nameofrom.zip /sdcard/
The file with push to your phone and then your can select it and flash it from recovery.
Thank you
Hi i have similar problem and more. Using galaxy nexus, i was playing with this updates and now screwed up. Using Mac makes it even harder. What is ROM file u referring to?? And also in adb it says my device cannot be found. Please help asap.

You've gotta be clearer. First, you're in the wrong thread if you are using a galaxy nexus. You tried the nexus 4 4.2.2 update on your gnex? Or you tried the paranoid platinum for nexus 4 on your gnex? Mac should make it easier, in my opinion. Try updating your android sdk, or just adb: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37928936&postcount=24
I would really appreciate some help on this one... I attempted to flash the updated Mahdi Rom (09/20 build) this morning. I'm using the latest Philz Recovery if that matters. I performed the normal wipe procedure and when I went to flash the rom it told me the file was invalid. I think I might have tried to use a zip that wasn't fully downloaded.
I didn't have any other recoveries on my phone (I know... not smart) so I need to figure out how to flash a new rom without using recovery. I'm not completely hopeless and I'm willing to do what it takes to get my phone back!
Any help would be great! Thanks.
Have you tried adb? Your phone will be called sideload when you command adb devices.

You can load adb on Mac. I believe there's a zip somewhere on xda with only the three files need, or download the package from Android. Place it in whatever your username folder is too make life easier. Also add ./ (dot slash) before every command.
Here's the command order for my setup.
cd Android/platform-tools
./adb devices
./adb sideload **DRAG FILE INTO TERMINAL**
Thank you for your help. I got ADB to load on my mac but it won't accept the prompt to sideload. Am I missing something perhaps?
Update: I think I figured it out. The command prompt needed to be reinitiated.
Thanks again for you help! Moments like that are always a little scary!

Does it recognize sideload when you type ./adb devices? If not and you're in adb on Philz unplug/replug the charger.

You can probably root but there are no custom recoveries or ROMs for this device yet. There won't be any until a developer with the knowledge actually gets one of these devices and that probably won't happen because the REAL developers own and build for the more popular and high end devices.
You'll probably get custom recovery and ROMs quicker if you learn to build them or port them for yourself. Sad, but true.

Then do a search for:
"How to check bootloader status on android"
This will give you different methods to check.
Learn to search instead of being lazy waiting for someone to do the thinking and the work for you. If you want to do this then get off your but and get busy finding answers.
You are the one that wants to do this to your device, not us, if it's what you really want then you'll do whatever it takes, if you don't then it means you didn't really want it in the first place.
You'll get TWRP faster if you learn to port or build your own, many new members that can't find anything for their device end up building their own TWRP, it's not that complicated.

Then you can't use TWRP unless you get it unlocked.
Before you ask how to do that, search first for yourself how to unlock bootloader on your model number.
If it can't be unlocked then you are out of luck with using custom ROMs, there are a lot of devices that can't be unlocked or use custom ROMs. In the future, research your devices before you buy them, that way you know whether it has custom support before you buy it. Then you won't be stuck with a device that has nothing available.

The done supports devices,with unlocked bootloader, if this device has an unlocked bootloader then custom recovery would be the best way to root and it wouldn't cost anything or require using any potentially questionable hardware or software. That's just my opinion though.

I think it's possible to do it via open shell adb in cmd.exe using the specific commands .. unlock the bootloader is done with fastboot in cmd under windows or in a linux terminal.
.
ADB: (android debug bridge)
adb devices - gives you the list of android devices connected to your pc, lets see if your phone is well recognized before doing anything
adb reboot - restart your phone normally
adb reboot recovery - restart your phone in recovery mode
adb reboot bootloader - restart your phone in bootloader mode (fastboot)
adb shell - allows to explore the phone, knowing that Android is based on linux you need to know the linux commands
adb remount - remount the system partition of the phone, you can then read and write
adb push xxx yyy - copy the xxx file from the computer to the yyy file / folder on the phone (root rights required)
adb pull xxx yyy - copy the phone's xxx file to the yyy file / folder on the computer (root rights required)
fastboot:
fastboot devices - gives you the list of android devices connected to your pc, lets see if your phone is well recognized before doing anything
fastboot reboot - restarts your phone normally
fastboot oem unlock - unlocks the bootloader
fastboot erase xxx - erases the xxx partition (userdata, cache, etc ...)
fastboot flash xxx yyy - flash the xxx partition with the yyy image
