People were looking for a guide to show them how to install a honeycomb rom on htc flyer now finally we have a how-to guide a developer informed us about this complete guide for installing Android Honeycomb on the HTC Flyer.
According to the source, this guide has only been tested on a Euro WWE 32GB 3G Flyer, but it may work on other configurations as well. The ROM is completely stock and if you have all the necessary files, you can revert back to Gingerbread if needed. Please be sure to know how to proceed before starting as this may damage your device.
Please Read This Carefully:
- This process is recommended for experts only!
- This guide is only tested on a Euro WWE 32GB 3G Flyer – it may work on other configurations, but this is untested (i’d advise reading the topic to see if anyone has experimented with your configuration!)
- Anything you do from this point forward is at your own risk – my Flyer works and i’ve resurrected a couple of others, but I take no responsibility if it all goes horribly wrong. You COULD brick your tablet
- Do NOT under any circumstances run the RUU in it’s entirety nor ‘fastboot flash rom.zip’ – this will make irreversible changes that you don’t want!
- Be careful if you flash any RUUs or do anything that could revert you to S-ON on a broken system – this could leave you stuck
Instructions to Install HoneyComb ROM ON HTC FLYER:
- Ensure you have an RUU that matches the ROM version on your Flyer. I used the 2.00.405.3 WWE ROM which can be found here - DOWNLOAD – MD5: 28a32c0b1262ced44a547e4a9a42d9b0. This is important for rollback purposes and disaster recovery purposes. Ensuring you have the RUU and your device version matches is your responsibility! If you use a different RUU however, post it below for your peers to benefit from. A reference topic containing various RUU files can be found here.

- Unlock your Flyer’s bootloader with Revolutionary.
- You should still be in bootloader – if not, use ‘adb reboot bootloader’ to return to fastboot
- Flash your device’s radio with the Honeycomb radio with the fastboot command ‘fastboot flash radio stock-hc-flyer-radio.img’
- Flash your device’s boot image with the Honeycomb boot image with the fastboot command ‘fastboot flash boot stock-hc-flyer-boot.img’
- Launch ClockworkMod recovery – navigate to the ‘bootloader’ menu then select ‘recovery’
- Push the new hboot to your device (you’ve checked the MD5 right?) and flash – ‘adb push stock-hc-flyer-hboot_1.11.0006.nb0 / && adb shell dd if=/stock-hc-flyer-hboot_1.11.0006.nb0 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18′
- Reboot to the new bootloader – ‘adb reboot bootloader’
- You are now in a state where you must unlock the bootloader using the HTC tools – visit http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/ and follow the instructions (Flyer compatability isn’t listed, but it’ll work)
- Flash your device’s recovery with the patched-to-work-with-new-hboot revolutionary recovery – ‘fastboot flash recovery revolutionary-cwm-4.0.1.4-flyer.newhboot.img’
- Launch ClockworkMod recovery – navigate to the ‘bootloader’ menu then select ‘recovery’
- Flash the Honeycomb system zip by copying / pushing to sdcard (adb shell mount /sdcard && adb push stock-hc-flyer-system.zip /sdcard/) then using the on screen menus
