remove sd . boot to bootloader. select recovery. while plugged in pull battery. put sd in. put batt back in. reboot to recovery. usb mount. remove pg file. turn off usb mount.....good to go.

You're a genius!! That nearly worked...My phone turned off when I removed the battery though. But I took out the sd card, put it in another phone, deleted the pg file, and then retried everything. Then the bootloader didn't force me to update anything, so I was able to get to recovery! I'm doing a clean install...But what on earth happened?? Is there any way to make the apps look the right size? Everything seems to be smaller.... most noticeably the text that pops up on popups with messages.

Thanks!

yeah, cant help with that as i had that problem too.. if you didn't do a backup with tb, you can make a 4ext nandroid and use this app to restore everything...

I do have TB installed and there is a backup and I do have a nandroid of harmonia and PA 299 before the last kernel flash of BT RL14.2 of PA but uhm, how do i get into recovery to reinstall either backup or new rom?
Thanks

make sure phone is off
hold down the volume down button
tap the power button
keep holding volume down
phone will now boot into bootloader
from there, use the volume buttons to navigate to the option 'reboot recovery'
in recovery, select restore and choose the nandroid you want to restore from..

I was holding the power button down to long lol, its just a tap gets it there doh!
I have to stop partying, its frying my brain.

If you are s-off you can downgrade your hboot. It's required. If you are, then you can find all the hboots in this thread: http://androidforums.com/showthread.php?p=5210029

Instructions are in the first post in that thread. You flash it through the bootloader rather than through recovery!

i am boot looping , why is it doing that?

can some one help me please!

Austrie · Dec 24, 2012

Make sure you're s-off, and installed the radio, hboot, and pri from the stickied 'fix everything' thread. Also make sure you do a clean install when flashing this ROM, meaning wipe everything

I did I follow it and it say something about enter msl code and I enter it. It say incorrect code. Get me frustrated cause I spend too many hours trying to do it n it won't let me.

Austrie · Dec 24, 2012

All you need to install is the hBoot, the Radio, and the PRI. You don't need to install the PRL, the PRI AND THE PRL is two different things.

Can someone tell me how to install the themed mms from the OP? It won't flash.

It looks like its just an apk file. Just download it anywhere on your phone and then click on it after it's downloaded. It should ask you to install just like any app!

Austrie · Dec 26, 2012

1. To install to mms, you can get a file manager & mount system as read and writable normally found in setting of the file manager, delete the MMS.apk that is in /system/app and replace it with the themed one; then long click the apk, click permissions, set owner as read and write, set the other as only read, and then reboot.

2. Or you can install the MMS.apk using "adb install MMS.apk"

You can try to install it just by putting it on SD card and clicking it, but you might get issues. Haven't tried it though.

How does the hybrid mode work on this phone?

MtnDew31693 · Dec 30, 2012

I'm not sure why, but this ROM made my 3g speed double. I was getting around 1k download in my room before, but after flashing this ROM I'm consistently getting around 2k down. I didn't change the radio, I've had the 808 radio for the past two weeks.

Sovietaced · Dec 30, 2012

Unfortunately this ROM was hanging on the paranoid android screen. I would get to the home screen, play around for about 5 seconds, and then it would fade to the hiding eyes and eventually the animation, forever.
