HI:
I have started using my HTC ONE SV BOOST MOBILE to its fullest just recently (after resolving a technical glitch ..thanks to Russellvone) and I love the phone. Battery life, 4g LTE Download speed, etc are some its huge plus points.
Now I am itching to try out a custom ROM FOR this phone.
Appreciate a list of Available CUSTOM ROMS which have been stable and have all features enabled within it (no bugs).
Here are its specs:
HTC ONE SV
TWRP 2.6.3
S-ON
Jelly Bean 4.1.2
Carrier: Boost Mobile (CDMA)

Thanks in advance!!
 
The slow mod-dev support of this phone is one of the major reasons I'm gonna make the jump to the Samsung S3. I can't even find straight forward and reliable help on restoring the stock recovery so that I can update to JB and (hopefully) fix several issues I've got growing on this thing. You would think that by now there'd be several ROMs out for the Boost variant, what with the release of JB ota, but that doesn't seem to the case.

I commend those of you that are sticking it out, I just don't have the patience.

You can grab the stock recovery from either your RUU, or your OTA. If you have a backup which holds your stock recovery, assuming one was made via booting vice flashing your custom recovery upon making your backup, then you can use that as well. Just rename it to recovery.img. To apply the stock recovery is no different then how you went about applying the custom recovery (logic) :)

In addition, I recommend you become familiar with the functions and operations of an android device so that you too may one day be able to contribute to the community. Those who do what they can now didn't just wake up with the necessary skills. It all had to be learned.

The lack of roms is truly annoying lol. Coming from the Evo then the Evo 3d. Even my Optimus v and my triumph had a lot of them. One day I'll jump ship when I can. I want a phone that has miui. Haha! I was going to start trying to learn myself but my pc burned out. Might build a new one once I get tax return. Or get a new phone. Lol.

May I ask what those glitches were and what helped resolve them? Hopefully it might be the same problems I'm having now...and can certainly use any help I can find, maybe help others too.

Currently I'm stuck at the splash screen, and restoring back to stock backup hasn't helped. Your glitches...anything similar to that after a bad rom mod? :(

Cheers! :)
