How to Install a Custom Rom and its corresponding Kernel ( boot.img )
Let the mess ..
Looking for a Rom you like. Make sure it is compatible with your terminal :
- If you have a Hox + international terminal , flash Rom Hox + international one
- If you have a Hox + ATT Telus or terminal , flash Roms Hox + Att / Telus
Evident. And dangerous not to do so.
- Connect the USB cable. Go to the phone folders . Create a folder called ROMS (not under compulsion, but to make it ordenadito ) and copy into the Rom you want to install .
The toolkit - click Boot into Recovery ( you can also do it with the terminal off, pressing the volume - keys and power for a few seconds , and then going to the recovery menu). If you have not done before, MAKE A BACKUP .
- Read the whole sentence before doing anything -> now proceed to Wipear . Tap Wipe and Wipe Cache, Dalvik , Factory Reset, and System. NOTHING . If you do something more you wipe , erase storage, including the ROM you want to install ! , And have occasional headache to solve the issue ( Post 4 )
- Click Install , go to the ROMS folder you created , and selects the one you want to flash . After flashearla , press the back button . Click Reboot and Reboot into Bootloader . Open the Rom you downloaded on the pc , you should see a boot.img file. Leave it somewhere on the pc, and the Toolkit click " Flash a Kernel. Boot.img You select the file you were out there, and will be flashed .
Click Reboot - from of the phone . To boot the phone normally.
Congratulations !
As you have seen, and because most terminals have are S -On , you must flasehar rom for the side , and on the other the Kernel.
Keep in mind that the kernels are not always compatible between Roms . You have to read well the characteristics of the roms installed. Many carry their own kernel , or author will tell if some other kernel that supports Rom
