[Q] Whats wrong with my flashing? - HTC EVO 3D

It's been about 2 months since I flashed another rom, but the thing is, everytime I try to flash another rom from recovery, it just loads up the previous rom I had, after wiping, formatting, ect. It wont load up the new rom I just flashed. On HBOOT 1.5. I also flashed the boot.img from the zip file to get the stock kernal, but still no go. Help please.

I was facing this problem when flashing CDMA Roms ,but i tried using gsm roms and everything goes fine

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ag47ent, you have a GSM phone, not CDMA!!!! Please stay in HERE to avoid wrecking your phone forever!
NEVER mix CDMA phones with GSM ROMS or GSM with CDMA!!!!!!!!!! EVER!!!!!!
OP:
Do you do a factory reset when you wipe?

Yes, everything I could possibly do. I kept trying and trying, somehow it finally worked. I swear I wiped like 20 times of the SAME thing. Jesus.

Your sure you are flashing it right? HBoot 1.5 is a bit different than just flashing it in recovery I thought.

you must use fastboot method to flash a new kernel/rom. You just cant do it directly from recovery.
Else you could use flash image GUI to flash kernels then rom from recovery.

Need some help, soft keys do not work.

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.

Try using fastboot on your pc and having your phone in fastboot type fastboot flash recovery "whatever the name of the recovery file"img

Please Help, Evo 3D won't boot pass the htc logo

So I tried flashing MeanRom the ics version onto the Evo 3d, and it flashed it. But every time it booted into the lock screen it rebooted itself. So I tried going back to the back up I made. But did not work, tried flashing a different rom but did not work also. It will go into recovery which was twrp but switched it to Ext4. So whatever I try it will just go into the HTC logo and get stuck there. I am at a loss, Please Help.
I will keep trying, but I'm running out of ideas
it does have s-on
hboot 1.50.0000
u r s-on so u need to flash the boot.img by the fastboot

I had this exact same issue after trying to flash Myn's ICS ROM with Touch Recovery on 1.5 s-on..How I was finally able to fix it was to delete the 4 ext folder off my SD card. Then I booted into fastboot and pushed TWRP recovery back onto my phone and flashed a gingerbread rom. If you need help pushing the recovery via fastboot, this thread is the answer. Be sure to give JTNiggle some thanks.

Doesn't EXT4 Touch Recovery take care of that for you? That was my impression. Off topic, I know..
evo rebooting
yes 4ext recovery takes care of that and you guys should be using it and make sure you have smart flash enable
I did try flashing a gingerbread rom with twrp but didn't work, which is why I flashed ext4

Well I used the dumlock method, which should have helped me flash the rom without manually going into my computer to flash via cmd right?

Happens to me too!
To flash a new ROM, go to your computer, Command Prompt , type in the direction of your recovery. ex= cd\evo3dTWRP, then type in "fastboot boot recovery.img (or whatever the name of your recovery img is), press enter and your phone should boot into Recovery. Wipe all data, then flash ROM.
BTW: Do you have Smartflash Enabled in 4EXT,?
Well bootloader is working and the recovery is too, I used twrp but noticed it wasn't working so I flashed 4ext. But for some reason it won't boot up roms (of any kind) or even restore my backup. The recoveries will restore or flash the rom. But once I reboot the phone it will just get stuck on the HTC logo. Yeah smartflash is and was enabled.

THANK YOU
YEEEEEES THANK YOU EVERYBODY, I got it back up and running, needed to manually flash boot.img for the rom. But before flash the rom.

If you're trying to install an ICS ROM, they tend to bootloop for most who are s-on. I recommend you get s-off.

ICS ROMs Give Me Bootloops!

I have tried to flash both Mean ROM ICS and viperROM ICS, but all i get is bootloops. I get to the main screen but all it does is reboot and say Android is Upgrading. BTW: S-ON HBOOT:1.5 Recovery:4EXT Smartflash ON
This is how i flash a ROM
1)From Fastboot boot into 4ext Recovery
2) Install Modified_Superwipe
3)Install the ROM
4) GET BOOTLOOPS!

Hm. Maybe just try manually wiping everything from recovery instead? I never use superwipes and as long as I factory data reset x2, wipe cache/dalvik x2, I never have issues. That's just how I've done it on all my phones and I never have issues.
I just flashed Newts One S RC3. It took me a while but I finally found a method that worked. I did it once and got through set-up and was in play store downloading apps when it went into boot loop. I tried the same method again and it didn't work. I messed around with different methods for a while before getting the following to work.
What I'm using:
HTC Unlock method
Hboot 1.5
S-on
cwm recovery 4.0.1.4
I used a computer to fastboot to recovery. Did factory data reset, wipe dalvik, and cache all x2. I installed the .zip rom file from SD card. And then installed the .zip anthrax ics RLS5 kernel file from SD card. Then I rebooted and so far everything is working fine. I've been running it for a couple hours now. I manually downloaded my apps one by one from the play store for fear of repeating what happened to me the first time. And I've just finished signing in to everything I use and haven't had an issue yet.
I hope this helps.

Yes i herd about this but have you tried charging or connecting your phone to a computer, many people can't charge or connect to computer via USB because of this kernel
Idk before I sent my phone in a had been using that kernel. I had no trouble charging/connecting. But really what it comes down to is every one of these phones is different, then you throw in the hboot and other key factors and it just gets worse.

Turn off smartflash if you are s-off you dont need it.
Then flash chads htc leak rls1 kernel, that stopped all the bootloops and problems for me its something about the stock kernel i am guessing. Everything worked fine after using that kernel. Anthrax rls5 says not to use it with sense 3.6, its right on androidfilehost. Chad said to use the leak rls1 instead for sense 3.6.
boot loop
wonder why every sense 4.0 ics rom i try to flash to my htc evo 3d... it always boot loop, i done tired everything everyone told me and the same thing happens.. only thing that really works on my phone is gingerbread... any suggestion??? really would appreciate it...

In my case I can't get any ROM based on the leaked RUU to boot unless I changed the kernel, this applies to both 3.6 and 4.0 ROMs. I don't know if you're GSM or CDMA but I know the kernel from Shooter_Ice works for me which is a GSM ROM. I can flash that over just about any ROM and it works or I can install the ROM straight up and it works to. If you're GSM, try that, if you're CDMA then look for a similar ROM that isn't based on the HTC leak.

ICS ROMs bootloop if you are Hboot 1.5 S-On (which you are if you unlocked via HTC). I recommend you get S-off using the wire trick or downgrade to 1.4 S-off. See the stickies in the CDMA Development section (or GSM development) to find information and steps on how to do it.

+1, go s-off and you can flash anything you want
Loop FIX
Sometimes you will get boot loops even with 4ext.
One thing that I have found which works is flashing mean ROM 2.4 ICS as a base.
This ROM probably will not boot or will get stuck in a boot loop but that is fine in this case. From there on use 4ext to complete a "dirty install" of another ICS ROM. I recommend SOS De-Sensed Rom. Sometimes flashing a ICS ROM on top of another ICS ROM (booting or non booting) allows for install.
to bypass all the bs go straight to fastboot and flash 4ext recovery 1.00.5 and do the s off wiretrick and then try to flash the rom... when you get s off it releases more permissions for the kernel to flash to the rom without having to use flash image gui from joekrimz
try this
ok you need to flash the boot.img file trough the bootloader, if that doesnt work try flash image gui
Flash custom rom then pull out your battery, go to fastboot then try flash this boot.img with fastboot http://db.tt/kEUVhnvV

Problem with ICS Firmware/radio

Hi,
when i flash the new PG86IMG.zip for ICS
the Rom´s not boot and the recovery make problems.
I don´t can flash new roms, the instalation is after 5sec over.
The only way is back is to the stock-rom with RUU.
I have
Hboot 007
Revolutionary s-off
recovery i tried:
4ext
cwm
cwm touch
i have tried the PG86IMG.zip from different sources
maybe someone of you knows this problem
How are you flashing the radio? Have you followed the instructions from mdeejays threads? There have been some reports that flashing the radio wipes recovery and you will need to reinstall it. Try searching mdeejays ICS threads as well. I'm s-on so haven't flashed radio, ICS still works for me.

I suggest you flash back your original firmware ( if you still know it, check here ) then just install the ics rom you like. If you encounter any signal issues then you will probably need to flash the ics radio firmware otherwise there is no need for it.
By the way, make sure you post your questions in the general section next time as a lot of members here will flame you for posting in the wrong section.
thanks for your answears.
I flash the firmware from the Bootloader.
Reinstall the recovery have i tried too.
Which mdeejays thread do you mean?
I try next to install without the Firmware.

[Q] trouble flashing with 4ext recovery.. help!

ok first off here are the details of the phone... evo 3d cdma, hboot 1.50 unlocked s-on via htc method.
now, the recovery i have is 4ext touch recovery. all of a sudden i cant flash roms on the recovery. i flashed some stock and gingerbread roms a few days with no problem and without doing it with adb.. i decided to try out the infected eternity rom just to see how it is. i did a nandroid backup of my previous rom and i flashed the rom through 4ext as well with no problem. then i decided i want to go back to my previous rom i was running which was zr3d 4.1gt. which i flashed via 4ext recovery without adb and without any problems. now when i tried to restore the backup i was stuck at the htc white splashscreen. i figured i did something wrong backing up the rom and tried a fresh install but ended up stuck at the htc splash screen again. this happens with every rom i try to install and every backup i have now and the only rom that will flash and boot is the infected eternity rom. i tried everything i can think of. any ideas and/or advice is apprecited. thanks for your time!
I was in your shoes a two weeks back , except this was happening with cwm recovery .
Go to the question and answer sub forum . And follow the relock and unroot meathod then your will will work and from there you can root again .

Are you using a super wipe before flashing or restoring your nandroid? It sounds like you have some crud leftover from the infected eternity install that is interfering with any new install.
Actually used synergy format zip.. it didn't work. Is there a specific super wipe that I should try?
