Dont wanna brick my device :-S
I can confirm that flashing works, its from revolutionary team they made it possible to flash so why should it brick ur device flashing it ?
Just restoring a nandroid needs to be testet.. attn1 said it should be fine, didn't need to try it lately.
Ayt. Thx 4 info dood. May the force be with u

BTW, you can't brick a device by flashing a recovery image
Well thats not entirely true. If u flash a wrong recovery img, you could mess up the system partition, and the rom wont boot anymore, neither will the recovery work.
The only way to fix this would be to flash a working recovery and flash a new rom, which would be hard if we dont have a working recovery.
Luckily this works. Can comfirm.
Thanx OP!
Coz i just saw it in 3D with the Shooter!

To keep things clean. I did that and you both are wrong. When you flash a not working recovery, your system won't boot.
You simply reflash a working recovery, boot into recovery and flash the same rom over it without wipe and you are good to go
That means that I'm not wrong
If you still can boot in hboot, you haven't bricked your device. If you bricked your device, you can't do anything.
Thanks
Dude really 100x thanks, it worked for me, I love you Searching for 3 days now to fix it.

Yeah it has the offmode charging bug, don't let your battery die
When trying to flash to another ROM, in the recovery mode I am getting the "ROM Manager icon". The ROM Manager icon appears in whatever selection I choose. I cannot reboot, flash, turn off, mount, or any of the other options. The only way I can get out of that screen is to perform a battery pull.
I currently have HIGH ROM installed and am trying to install LeeDroids ROM. I tried installing through ROM manager but that also gave me an error saying I don't have the latest ROM manager when I do (got from Market same day), and that the SD card is not mounted. Any possible solutions?

There is no Amon Ra for the 3d, you should use Twrp, it's as reliable as Amon was on the 4g.
I've used clockwork from day one works great, no issues

Same thing basically. You'll select "backup" I believe and then you can select individual partitions that you want included in the nandroid.
what's nice is that you can choose to compress your back ups with twrp to save space. A standard back up is around 800 Meg uncompressed.
I've newly rooted the phone. I haven't put on a new custom ROM, but surely I should be able to overclock it with SetCPU. The highest frequency I can get is 1188 which is probably the standard clock speed.
Anyone know how to get it higher, without a custom ROM?
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using XDA
You need an OC kernel for that. And if you are S-ON you can't do that.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1495657
Follow this thread to achieve S-OFF status if your device is unbranded or vodafone branded then install a kernel like leedroid's, mine is running on 1.5ghz atm.
Edit: You can actually install kernels while S-ON, but I'd get S-OFF if I was you as you'll have trouble when ICS comes out.

You also need a kernel that supports overclocking. I prefer Anryl because in my opinion it's the most stable and the battery friendliest of them all. You can flash it with an app calld "Flash image GUI".
Can I use that kernel with the original Sense ui?
Because all I did was Roy my phone with recovery and have done nothing else.

Yes and no. The kernel has to state that it works with Sense 3.0 if you want a smooth oc kernel try Anthrax, it overclocks to 1.5ghz which should be enough, anything higher will just over heat your phone and make it unstable.

If you are s-on, the only way is to use the Flash Image GUI app. If you have problems, just re-load the stock kernel with that app.

or he can boot recovery via fastboot and flash any kernel of his choice.....that's the 2nd way.
and the 3rd and the best way for s-on hboot is to use 4ext recovery and enable smart flash, which will allow him to flash kernels just like S-OFFed phones

do a nandroid backup with 4ext recovery , then if you want to restore to stock kernel , just restore the system and boot partition.
If you backup using different recovery, you cannot restore the backup with another recovery....
Just double checking before I take the plunge:
I take it that my current CWM Revolutionary recovery will not be good enough to backup and install a new kernel? Is that correct? And that the only way to do this is to use the new 4ext recovery instead?

Your current recovery is good and works well for both S-on and S-OFF phones..... but the only issue is S-on users can't flash kernels directly with CWM , You will either have to use PC to boot CWM recovery on your phone to flash kernels , or you can use 4ext recovery and enable its smart flash feature to flash kernels if you don't want to use PC.
But make sure 4ext supports gsm EVO 3d..
Thanks for that, I will now try that, I'm sure that 4ext works on my gsm 3d because it asked me to confirm the phone model when I first opened the app.

Can someone help me please, I'm getting really frustrated as flashing kernels etc, seems a little more complex than it did with the HTC Hero.
I am trying to flash this kernel, I have S-ON, with Sense 3 and when I use 4EXT to flash the akernel_v10.08.zip it says:
assert failed: write_raw_image ("/tmp/newboot.img", "bcot")
E:Error in /sdcard/akernel_v10.08.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
So then the instruction in the first post for Anryl Kernel says if you have S-On do this:
•for s-on download boot.img and flash via fastboot flash boot boot.img
but I don't know how to do this. I have downloaded the boot1008.img renamed it to boot.img on the root of my sdcard - but I can't find any option to install it in 4EXT or in the Fastboot (<- i assume fastboot is when you power off and hold volume down and power on - that menu).
Can someone please help?
I don't have s-on but if I'm not mistaken
you have to put a copy of the boot.img into your fastboot folder on your pc. Then power your phone into hboot by holding volume down and tapping the power button. Keep holding the volume button down untill you see the white hboot screen. It will say hboot on the screen to verify your in hboot mode. Then open up your command prompt and type cd then hit enter then type
c:\AndroidSDK\platform-tools\
Then type
fastboot flash boot boot.img
It should allow you to flash the boot.

Hey guys and gals! So i've been flashing roms and mods for a few years now since the og evo but still very much noob. I was using mean rom, updating every couple of releases. on one of them he recommended flashing ext4 recovery which i did and then flashed the rom update. Everything worked fine for about an hour then the lockring started to not want to open, i would have to drag it up 3 or 4 times real fast. then soft keys started not to work and got progresivly worse to the point now once i open something i have to reboot to get back to home screen.
Thinking it was recovery i flashed back to cwm and same thing, flashed backups made well before it started acting up and same thing. Flashed different roms still the same.
Any ideas??? Thanx for any help.
Bump. I have this same problem
Are you s-off or s-on? What hboot version are you on? This information matters because flashing incompatible roms and kernels tends to cause problems. I take it since your on ics using meanrom that your problem is more than likely a kernel and or recovery issue. 4ext recovery is the best recovery used for ics roms. It's not recommended to use clockwork mod or restore backups recoveries formatted particular recovery with a different recovery. If you are on hboot 1.58 you must flash the 1.58 kernel in the meanrom folder added to your files after installation. Make sure you do a full clean wipe before installation of rom. Wipe dalvik and cache before you flash kernel.
Please hit the thanks button if I helped you.

Is twrp stable?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
I have been using TWRP since spring, first Con's port, and then Flyhalf's build.
Both versions are totally stable, and TWRP has some nice features that AR lacks, like a file browser/editor, the ability to easily name and rename backups, and, of course, touch screen use.
Also, it has been reported that Flyhalf's TWRP is able to flash VR themes, unlike Con's port.
I may try Flyhalf's CWM, but probably only when/if it works to flash from the SD and v6 is working properly.
newest twrp is cool but for performance reasons most roms recommend amon ra
I second amon ra. It is basic in its features but it seems to be the fastest in terms of backing up.
+1 amonRa never had a problem. And the idea of a "touch" recoveryjust sounds bad. Personally. Ans we all know not to use CWM

I was using TWRP, but noticed lots of developers tested theirs with Amon Ra. So, when I S-off mine (about 3 weeks ago) and installed Amon Ra and honestly, I like it better.
Amon Ra is boss. Normally I use CWM, but it's borked for the Rezzy. Amon Ra is simple, feature packed, and clean

amon ra is compatible to everything so until you can flash everything with twrp aka vr themes it won't beat amon ra.
I've always been hardcore serious about only using amon ra. I've remotely set up about a hundred rezounds, and probably 95 percent of the people who I worked with got a lecture from me about not changing recoveries.
People who had used clockwork mod on other phones tended to want to change immidiately and it just wasn't solid and stable like amon.
That being said, the only problem with with amon ra recovery is that for a lot of people, the recovery doesn't allow the user to see the internal sd card or flash from it.
Flyhalf has recently posted TWRP built from source for our device. It's top notch work in my opinion.
I'm currently running TWRP, because it allows me to flash from the internal SD card.
Suite tools is being implemented in more and more roms, and it stores data on the internal sdcard and automatically reboots to recovery. With TWRP this works, with amon ra you had to tell suite tools to download and install the app, then say no to the confirmation before it rebooted, use root explorer to browse to the suite tools data on the internal sd card, copy it over to the external sdcard and then go to recovery and manually flash it.
It depends on your needs, with TWRP, some of the kernel installers like Joel's have an automatic reboot to bootloader in the script. The auto feature is for anon ra, TWRP works just as good, you just have to reboot to hboot yourself after flashing the kernel zip in recovery.
Amon ra has the issue for some users which prevents flashing from internal, but it always works besides that.

But is use CWM6. I just a fan since the good DINC days.
No one should be using cwm. It sucks and who cares if it works now it's is far less superior to amon ra. I remember von hated it so much that he was going to make a script that wouldn't let you flash something if you had cwm haha
But seriously amon ra. You should be using what works. It's a recovery for gods sake. Your in there for maybe 10 min max so who cares what it looks like.

Just to make it clear, FlyHalf's CWM does not have the charging issue of the original release, and his TWRP is able to flash VR Themes.
I use TWRP, with which I have had no problems at all. With me, it wipes and installs significantly faster that AR did, and I think it backs up and restores faster too, but I am not sure. The main reasons I prefer it to AR are the keyboard and ability to name backups and the file manager.
i see that Amon Ra is getting its well deserved love. Anything but clockwork. I even like stock better...
TWRP is the most feature-rich, advanced recovery for the Rezound.

That's your personal opinion. Amon Ra is perfect. Twrp has issues flashing some things and requires devs to work more to fix errors for these users. It would be 1000x easier if everyone used amon ra.
Basically, use either Amon-Ra (v3.15 or higher) or TWRP (Flyhalfs version)
I've never come across anything I couldn't flash with either one, they both backup and restore just fine most of the time (had one bad backup with AR)
I do lean towards TWRP simply for the ease of use offered by a touchscreen, the ability to name backups, and the file manager which saved my butt once when I was messing with stuff I really shouldn't have and didn't have a computer anywhere near me.
