I used the bootloader unlock yeserterday and and turned the S-off with Revolutionary. I have tried to flash 2 Roms, chogardjr from thmikmik site and synergy. Both times and my Wifi said error and the 4g wouldnt turn. Does anyone know why this is happening, or having it happen to themselves? Thanks
what recovery are you using? and what ROM do you actually want to use as a daily driver.
I am using the Revolutionary recovery. I have always liked the MikMik ROMs, I always used them on the 4g. I just dont get the wifi error. I am doing system wipe, cache partition and davlik cache wipe, I have always used those there, am I missing something?

Are you using the kernel that comes with the ROM? Or are you using a custom kernel?
That I dont know, how do I check that? I am still pretty new to rooting(I still cant believe I pulled it off without unrevoked haha) so I dont quite get kernals

Well you'd know if you were using a custom kernel, because you'd have needed to flash it separately and independently from the ROM. So if you don't recall doing that, then surely you're just on whatever kernel came with the ROM. The reason I was asking is because if you use a kernel that was for 2.3.3 on a 2.3.4 rom, it will indeed break your wifi and 4g until you went back to proper kernel. Other than that, I'm really unsure what is causing your problem.

You know what, I think you are right. Both the ROMS are 2.3.3 and my phone is 2.3.4. Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it

I unlocked the bootloader and rooted it okay... then I flashed a ROM, that also worked fine. I tried to flash a kernel and now it just gets stuck on the HTC screen. I tried restoring my back up, still the same issue. Tried reflashing the ROM, same issue. Not sure how to get it back to normal at this point.
It sounds like the kernel you flashed is either a 2.3.3 kernel that doesn't work on 2.3.4, or it was a bad flash. You should be able to fix this by holding volume down when booting up (opens HBOOT) then choose Recovery and from the recovery you can then either enable USB Mass Storage device and transfer a stock kernel over USB to your SD card then flash the stock kernel, or if you already have a stock kernel on your SD card, you can just select it from the install from zip menu and flash.
This Kernel should work fine (it's stock with CIQ spyware removed):

and after I flash this kernel it should be back to normal.... or should I try to flash a ROM all over again as well? As long as it can definitely be fixed then that's quite alright.... this phone compared to the Epic (which I came from) seems like it's much less fail safe to me.

ROMs usually have kernels. You could just wipe Dalvick cache and cache and flash your original rom (which has it's original kernel). and that should work.
There's a sea of roms. You could try posting on a rom's thread whether a particular kernel is compatible. Just follow the spin of things. Saves from just going round in circles.

Here's a scenario: If you installed a rooted stock 2.3.4 rom then decided to install Silverneedle kernel, your phone will get stuck in this boot-loop because the silverneedle kernel is not compatible with 2.3.4 yet. So by flashing a stock kernel over what is already on there, it should fix the problem. Before you flash the stock kernel clear cache and dalvik. After that flash the kernel and reboot the phone. Chances are it will boot normally. I doubt you will have to reflash a ROM to fix this.
Just cleared the dalvik and the cache, reflashed the ROM hoping to start completely fresh and its still getting stuck...

Then flash a stock kernel. I have had the same problem before. I flashed a ROM, installed a kernel and stuck at HTC boot screen. The fix is to either install a stock kernel through bootloader or flash another ROM in recovery. If you want the best chance of it working the first time, then flash the stock rooted 2.3.4 ROM by xhausx. If you want to try other ROMs and kernels, make sure that your ROM and kernel are compatible. Also use the synergy wipe zip file before flashing to make sure everything is formatted properly. Also, did you flash the extra firmwares that came with the 2.3.4 update? If not, make sure you flash those along with the new radio that just came out.

Not sure about any extra firmwares actually.... currently going to try flashing xhaus' ROM and hope that works...
Flashed the superwipe before flashing the ROM, then flashed the ROM... it went to the HTC screen for a second then just vibrated and then turned black.
When I go into the bootloader when it is loading up the images.... it kept saying "No Image!" for all of them. I'm not having any luck with this at all.

You need the appropriate kernel for the rom to run properly. Kernels for each rom should be listed in the rom thread. If you are on hboot 1.5 you will have to flash the kernel separately in the bootloader or with the Flash GUI app.

so even with me messing up the kernel once if i find the correct kernel everything will revert and work? because when i flashed miui it stuck on the startup screen and never loaded past that so if i find the kernel that solves everything?
I would at least wipe cache and dalvik after flashing the kernel. If you run into problems, you may need to fully wipe, then install the rom from stratch, then install the kernel right after.

Well yeah thats the problem i did it using the flash gui app...the first kernel i tried which was a tiamut kernel didnt load....so i used rcmix_3d_evo_kernel...it accepted, when it went into reboot. it never loaded after that. But now when i go into my recovery...i can actually unpack that zip now. when beforehand, it would alwasy fail...does that mean something? im trying the way you just said by flashing it, then wipping the dalvik and cache and then flashing my rom, basically right now im bricked unless this works, and the way to help me not be bricked doesnt work because megaupload has been seized so i cant get the cwm to make my sd card. RUU doesnt work to flash it back to stock. Im pretty much stuck with a bricked phone...hopefully i find a way around this. theres a thread on here that refers to other people being bricked from this exact kernel.

Hey you really helped me, i ended up being bricked but what i had to do was flash the kernel twice or idk exactly which worked but i had to fastboot flash the boot.img from the ROM i were gonna use and flash the kernel...now all of my things are back working, 4g, wifi,video playback and everyting...the thing is the kernel was a defective kernel IF NOT FLASHED CORRECTLY.
I have S-Off, the leaked May Hboot, an ICS ROM (Nils' Business ICS 3.4 S-off version), but the ICS radios simply do not work.
Today I tried them and had barely functioning cell reception, crap battery life, and only 1x data.
Then I flashed the OTA GB radios, and everything was perfect. Lightening fast 4g, killer cell reception, and great battery.
Why?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Try this one. There are a couple floating around that may have problems but this one works for me
ICS Latest Radio
Just remove everything in the name before the PH and flash in bootloader (I know, you know this but others may not)
May also want to match the kernel
Thanx, Nils. I'll try it after work today.
BTW, I'm on your new kernel release, and it's running great.

Actually it was Snuzzo who informed me that I need to do that after not reading all the words on the flashing instructions. You know figured I would just skip that part well thats fine if you want your data dropping in and out, no 4G and just general ****tyness..
I did a wipe/factory reset in bootloader, and then restored a CWM Backup of Nils' ROM.
When that didn't work, I did it again and wiped everything and started over with a fresh install... No joy.

You have to have the stock recovery in order to factory reset in the bootloader. If you have a custom recovery such as cwm or ra it won't do the reset needed for the radio to work correctly.
Flash stock recovery
Factory reset
Boot to make sure radios work right
Fastboot install custom recovery

I have been running MeanBean for a few months and am not very happy with the battery life and certain other "Features" and would like to flash the ICS ROM listed below. I have tried a few times to flash it but it won't install. It stalls trying to install and just sits there for up to an hour with no progress. I have wiped everything several times and get the same results. I end up having to go back to MeanBean also listed below (Which installs just fine in about 5 minutes.) I've re-downloaded the ROM several times getting the same size.
I've recently started getting random reboots with no error report generated. That and the poor battery life begs me to go back to ICS... If It would install. I have 1 year left on the contract so a new phone is not in the cards.

since you are s-on, are you flashing the kernel/boot.img separately? or thru fastboot? If I'm not mistaken when you are s-on you have to flash the rom twice (meanben OP and meanrom ICS OP instructed) so the kernel gets installed... Good luck!
P.S. you need to update your radio/baseband but for that you need to be s-off.
I have the same problem, except for me when I install the MeanRom zip, it reboots while it installs the kernel and then hangs. I'd really like to get this rom working again! Really the onnly reason was because I heard that Sprint limited MMS sizes on JB, and ICS was supposedly unaffected, so I wanted to see if it was true.

Well seeing as there is a thread here, someone ported it at least. It's really really nice though I'd love to get my own kernel working on it. You don't think that maybe since it's a hybrid of three different roms, that would be affecting the installation? I guess perhaps I could superwipe, install rom, install stabilizer, and then kernel.

I could experiment quickly. I'll do the installs with Elemental 1.5 and MeanBean and see if I can boot.
Update: Flashed, rom appears to be stuck in boot animation.
Update 2: Booted! Wow, alright guess I'll try the same with ReVolt now...
Ok, I unlocked the bootloader on the 3d and then installed ext4. i then threw on negalites rom, booted, and had no wifi or 4g capabilities.
so i did some research....came to negalites website where they say to flash the butteredtoast kernel, then re-install negalite rom with aurora.
ok...so i did that, installed the kernel, re-installed negalite, annnnnnd still no 4g/wifi. i tried this several times. wiped caches, etc.
so then i decided "well screw this, i'll just try a different rom to see if wifi/4g work" so i decided to go back towards cyanogenmods wild in the night. so i transfer the cm zip to sd, and try to flash it....but i get an error aborted?! wtf?? i thought i unlocked the bootloader....and could flash what i wanted here.
so i tried flashing the pacman rom, that aborted as well. it seems any ROM other than negalites will not install. what gives?
So questions:
1. Is there a way to fix the negalite rom to get 4g and wifi working? anything else i can try at all?
2. why can't i flash any other roms? do i need to use TWRP instead? do i need to regress to a different rom or kernel?
Hellllpppppp!!!!
edit- this phone also is S-ON still if that matters at all
First flash Rom.zip
Then flash kernel
