Root help needed for wildfire s

ash180

Lurker
I have rooted my wildfire s and have cwm recovery installed. Recently I found a sense 3.5 like rom jxmatteo. I got it n made it run through cwm recovery and there is where my problem starts. The screen flickers badly, phone goes through abnormal resets, it cant be connected to the computer by any means, the sense 2.1 weather animations run abnormally n screen blacks out. Even when I restore my backed up sense2.1 2.3.5 ROM the problem persists.I contacted the service center n they told me to replace the motherboard which is not an affordable measure.
I have lost hope n scared to go for other ROMs.
Any help regarding this shall be seriously appreciated. I have cwm 5.0.2.6 from eoghan2t7's installer over at XDA.
please help! help!
 
Before you installed the new ROM, did you do a factory reset, wipe the cache partition and wipe dalvik cache? That's rule #1 about installing new ROMs.

If not, do it now and reboot. It will probably solve your problem with jxmatteo's Sense 3.5 ROM. If it's still unstable, check out the ROM in my signature, also at XDA. It runs fine on my phone (Marvel/A510e).

The procedure for correctly restoring your 2.3.5 ROM is:
1) Go into recovery and do a factory reset, wipe all cache including dalvik.
2) Restore
3) Reboot

If you fail to do step 1, gremlins will persist from the previous ROM.

Edit:
Also, please confirm that your phone is a Marvel/A510e. That's what these ROMs are for. ;)
