Thank you Samuri. You have been so helpful during all of this. I appreciate all of your hard work.

No problem. Just make sure to get the latest files from the HoB thread. 5.5 is the current version of the HoB scripts, 1.0 COMPONENTS you already have, and the 242 support installer. Then just do the install 242 option and you should be good to go.

I first tried installing 242 thinking i didnt need 5.5 just 3.0. I was confused as to why the msdos bat thing wasnt giving me the option for 242. Pretty noobish i admit but i figured it out.

ROFLMAO! I don't do useless updates to the HoB. I've put a lot of work in to get it where it is. The 5.5 version came from fixing stuff for the HoR.

I am going to do something I will probably regret later on, if you don't have HoB 5.5, there will not be an option for 242 until you update it to 5.5. This is one of the things the update does is update the list of updates you can install.

Could not be more incorrect.

I was refering to giving advice to someone who has posted similar questions in other topics, chances are the instructions that are in plain simple english are not understood by someone means it is a high possibility the phone will be bricked.

While I agree with that, I was referring to the point you made about having to upgrade to 5.5 in order to "add support for 242". That is highly wrong. The HoB uses a dynamic menuing structure. The only thing needed to add a new release is the update and the boot img. And the boot img can be created with addupdate so you really only need the update itself.

For some odd reason the only way I was able to put 242 into the menu was to update HoB to 5.5.

But then I have yet to get an update to go onto the phone without having to do a factory reset afterwards either.

All that is necessary for an update to show up on the menu is an xxx dir that contains the update with xxx somewhere in the filename and the boot img which can be created with addupdate. Meaning that I don't even have to release any new versions for it to just simply work. The person that discovered 242 used the HoB to install it before I even knew it was out. Once I get an update I create the boot img for it and then extract the recovery img after installing it. I then point my update install creation script at it and create a new support installer. All that does is put the new dir in place with the update, boot img, and recovery img. The HoB menu detects it and dynamically adds it to the menu.
