Can't flash other roms - HTC EVO 3D

Ok. I unlocked my phone using the HTC method. Flashed a working recovery. Flashed synergy ROM and everything went smoothly. Now when I tried to flash miui and steel ROM, I can't get past the lockscreen. Can someone help?

Problems occur sometimes when something is missed when delating i.e deleting cache, dalvik cache or factory reset etc is missed. Did you do all?
Also i once had a problem because i was using a download manager and partially paused the download. When i switched my laptop back on to resume the download ...it did resume and it did download the entire ROM but somewhere something got corrupted and i couldn't get past the boot screen.
Above is just my personal opinion. No harm in trying to re download a new ROM.

I actually redownliaded, wiped numerous times. Tried infected and that worked. Could the kernel be a reason?

Try to clear cache under applications for the market. But you should ask this at the rom thread....

Flashed this rom (and kernel) and now I am not able to get past the TBolt boot screen with the thunder. Hung there for over 2 mins.
-I flashed the kernel with hboot
-installed the ROM with CWR (rom manager) 3.0.2.4
-also cleared the download cache in Rom Manager, deleted and reflashed the recovery.
Still hangs...

usually best practice is, wipe data X2, wipe cache X2, wipe dalvik cache X2, then flash the rom, fully boot the rom, go back to Hboot and flash the kernal.
I believe they are saying to NOT wipe 1.1 for this ROM? I could be wrong. I think they said to just flash OVER the current 1.1, as wiping will cause it to hang on the cloud screen. I think that's the lastest from that 30+ page thread .
Fix permissions on cwr.

Reflash ROM and wipe your data and cache. Had the same problem, and that worked for me.

what do you mean you lost root... hboot no longer shows S-Off?
and my bad, I didn't know their second version of the rom was all weird and needed to be flashed over the original.
Hmm just checked hoot still shows s_off but root checker says Su not found in path. Also still getting that weird market error when I try to install anything. It downloads just won't install.

you have to have version 1.1 installed first. So you need to wipe data and cache. Flash version 1.1 and reboot. Let it get past the clouds and boot into the rom. go back into cwm and flash 1.2. DO NOT WIPE DATA!!! Wiping cache is fine. If you wipe data you will have problems.

Changing Roms

When trying to switch to a different rom, even after factory reseting and clearing all the cache. Parts of the old ROM consist such as the notification tray colors on the pull down. I dont understand because ive cleared it all
You might have to wipe and start again. I had that problem yesterday.

If all you are clearing is the cache, and not wiping data/cache/davlik, that is your problem right there...
Ive cleared them all 3 times now and still getting the same problem.

When all else fails, follow unroot steps to return to stock and restart the process. Something you're doing doesn't seem to be adding up.

I feel losing root wont gain anything more then re rooting.
Its 1 thing the notification colors in the pull down.
What ROM are you trying to flash, and what recovery are you using? The most reliable is arguably the Clockworkmod version...

Returning to stock is a good way to resolve this issue.
So guess what, you can change the color inside the rom settings
Oh thanks for the help
Are you using ROM manager to flash roms or doing it manually? if your not you should try rom manager it has an option that lets you wipe all data before flashing the new rom. i use it and ive never had any problems

If you search this forum or Google 'unrevoked', you'll easily find a complete guide and walkthrough on how to root your phone, which'll (as part of the process) load clockworkmod boot recovery.
The next time you reboot, hold the volume down key, which takes you into your boot screen, and use the vol up and down keys to select 'recovery', and press the power button.
From there, wiping your cache partitions and doing a full factory wipe is very straightforward.
That's the easiest way to fully flatten your phone before installing a new ROM.
Edit - the process might differ a bit for your model phone, but the principle will be the same...

[Q] need restore help please

Im currently running the first flight Rom and wanted to go back to alpha 2...i tried a reflash but my phone is still on the other Rom, i did another reset and reflash of alpha but it still hasn't change. I than tried to use my nandroid backup which ice used before but when i try to use it it tells me nothing on file...what do i do

After about 4 attempts i was able to flash alpha 2 and my back ups seem to be there as well...not just empty folders like before, weird
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
That is odd. Make sure you always factory reset multiple times as well as wipe cache multiple times when switching roms.
So you would:
- factory reset x3
- wipe cache x3
- wipe dalvik x1
- flash new rom
This should help with experiencing less if these type issues as well as other bugs.

I actually do those steps. I flashed one of the other ics roms and I didn't really like it so I tried to flash alpha back, after reboot I was still on the other rom...I tried again with same result, finally I used my backup. This time the same thing happened but I was on a different rom, the only difference was I wasn't able to use my back up, backup folder said "no file" when trying to flash, so I was pretty much forced to keep trying to flash alpha, finally it worked and I checked my cwm folder and my backups are there and are not empty. Odd

weird considering when you do a restore it erases boot partition before starting to restore so unless you used the wrong backup file it should've worked the first time.

I only used the restore one time a week or so ago because everytime I tried to flash back to alpha I was still on the collective rom. Thats when I used my backup and it worked but this time the same time happened....flashed alpha like 3 times and nothing happened, I than tried to use my backup but my phone told me the backup file was empty, I have 2 backups and my phone told me the same thing on both. I continued to flash alpha over and over again with wiping date etc each time and it finally worked, and my backups have data in them unlike before.

Running seraphim and keep getting wifi errors

Hello,
First and foremost, I'm loving this rom. I'm a noob and getting my hands dirty figuring all this out.
Now with that said:
When I try to connect to my wifi network it keeps saying authentication error occurred. I have tried everything and the only thing that fixes it is restoring my backup to my stock rom.
Please help!!!!

I will say 90% of the people in here will say it is not the rom. just because theres seems to work. and i tend to agree. what have you tried to fix it? besides going back (to Stock). i have not had any issues with WiFi on Serephim yet, so i can not say what a fix would be. maybe wipe your cache's. when i had that issue on GB i had to reinstall the kernel and boom it worked. but seeing as though we do not have one yet for ICS. i would say wipe and worst case reinstall the from after a very Thurough Wiping Process.

Then if your into flashing right now, just try either the superwipe.
Or this is how i wipe.
I factory default/format usb from inside the rom.
I wipe factory/data from cwm
i wipe cache partition from cwm
i wipe delvik from cwm
then i flash "Rom" and reboot.
this leaves nothing from previous roms and or Gingerbreak roms.
try that and see if it works. if not then i am out of ideas until a kernel source is released.
Ok i will try that and see if it works...
Thank you!!!

[Q] Unable to install ROM past EL01...CM10.1, CM10, AOKP all bypass setup...

And the all have the same green leaf for a home screen, so are my ROMS not being written to the right place or what. this is getting confusing. the ROM form about shows the different versions but all are skipping the setup and I have no 3G/LTE connection, only wifi.
Whatever I am doing I seem to be consistent about it

the AOPK had gapps folded in. what is odd is I have now tried AOPK and a CM10 and CM10.1 and they all seem to have the same start screen, come up after the boot like it is already installed, missing any 3G/4G connection. Now I have flashed back to EG01 and run up though iCS several times and it isn't taking the CWM now, says it installs ok but boots into stock recovery. Now I using the older CWM 5504 for the i-905 and it writes somewhere, but apparently not where it should be. I was going to try TWRP but that doens't appear to run on HC/ICS - is it JB only? I have shied away from the newer CWM for a long time because for a while they just seemed to boot-loop the tablet.
Any one have a suggested working version of CWM? This starting from scratch and rolling in all the updates is getting old - which is why I was wondering if there is a way to build my own ODIN set to just flash back to this point without having to go though reroot and install of the recovery (which apparently now I am not able to do - wts! )
Thanks!
Rob (lost) in Katy.
Twrp is compatible with ICS too, if im not mistaken. Go to www.droidbasement.com and download pershoots's version of cwm recovery. That should work just fine. BTW, you did make a full wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik) right? And what's EG01?

I am now one cycle 15 and doing the last update to 4.04. every stinking rom I load goes back to the factory or the ROM starts off and ignores the setup. The really annoying thing is I have had all this setup and working before. Ahhhhhh!

Ok, i found another recovery laying around that seems to be working. I also found that the bug where you need to delete the script that deletes the new recovery. Once I got that far things started making sense. I guess whatever mod I was on before didn't need it. The next trick will be trynig to decifer how to do an odin backup so that I don't haver to roll though 4/5 upgrades to get here. I know someone is doing it. thanks for the help and a place to bounce ideas. will update if i come up with anything.
