i had gotten the evo 3d right when it came out and recently just tried to root. i succeeded using the htc method. but after installing a third rom(hydro 2.3) every other rom the screen will randomly flash(it will flash probably about 1 time every ten seconds) and then turn off some of the times. all the installs i did were all clean. i wiped the data, cache, and even cleared the battery stats. but nothing works. and i dont think its hardware because whenever i let it boot up without a rom it will just stay at the htc logo but not flash or go out. is anyone else having this issue? and im on a cdma evo too.

May be the way you flashed the kernel from the way your having issues.
Yes look for your hboot version. 1.50 use a different method to flash roms.

I lost 4G after flashing Anthrax v2 Kernel and Warm Mod for ICS, the beta. I got stuck at the HTC screen so I wiped and reflashed the mod that I was using before that Vipermod 2.1.1 with the kernel I was using Anthrax and I could't get wifi or wimax to work. I did a nand restore and still wifi and 4g will not start. WTF?
It doesn't even know their MAC address anymore
4g doesnt work in any ICS rom yet.
Also, download Wimax Key Checker from the market and make sure your keys are still there.
But it still didn't work on Sense. Wifi magically stopped as well. And I can't find the app.
UPDATE: Just found out that ap doesn't work with the EVO 3D
Had the same issue last night and this may sound stupid, but I restarted my phone and all was well.
I am sure you already did this, but I figured I would throw it out there. (I am using steelROM with anthrax.)
Unfortunately, restarting does not fix my issue.
try wiping cache and dalvik again, re-install the kernel again, wipe cache and dalvik one last time for goodness, then boot again, see if re-installing the kernel fixes it.
I've ran across similar problems, usually a reboot might fix, if not, re-installing the kernel usually worked for me
Just reflashed twice. Restarting both. One like you said. And one without wiping anything. Still no wifi or wimax.
Sounds like you lost your wimax keys. Check with this app.

As he said before, doesn't work with the Evo 3D.
try a different rom, i remember flashing a new kernel and my 4g was completely dead. Flashed another rom and it worked again.....lost my apps but nothing titanium backup couldnt help with.
Did a complete data wipe, flashed rom and kernel. All is good. Thanks for the support guys.
I was running Eternity version 116 for a long time, and decided i should upgrade to a more recent rev. I tried flashing v236 (and 238 and various versions in between) and all appears to go well, I get a message for successfully installing, but on first reboot, I get stuck on the splash screen. While I haven't tried many ROMs, I always wipe first. I am currently running Bamf Forever. But for whatever reason, I just can't get Eternity to load. Any suggestions? Thanks!
If you wiped data first and didn't get a bad download (if you've tried multiple versions, that would be very unlikely) then there really wouldn't be a logical reason for it not to work. All I can tell you is that it takes a long time (5 minutes maybe) to boot up the first time you flash a new ROM, I think it's because it zipaligns your apps. Hope you figure it out, if you find out what the problem was, let me know.
I've let it boot up for hours, but it never gets past the splash screen.
are you wiping data/cache/dalvik

Yes, wiping everything. I don't seem to have a problem installing other ROMs, just Eternity.
disregard. i got 216 to work. i don't know wtf was going on. but i'm happy now.
Glad you got it working. There have been some significant changes since 216 that makes it worth your time to upgrade to R238.
I figured out what the problem was. turns out all i needed to do was update CWM. now all versions flash fine. I was using a 3.0 version of CWM.
I am coming from a Galaxy Nexus. I have flashed many roms in the past, but when I flash roms on the Note the phone portion seems to stop working. Data works fine, its just when I try to make a call it just sits there for a long time and then the call terminates. Happens every time a flash a new rom. With my old Droid 1 on Verizon you could dial up a number to reactivate the phone, on the Nexus this seems to not be an issue at all. Is there some trick to getting AT&T to reinitialize the cell phone after a new rom flash? I tried pulling the battery for like 5 minutes figuring that would force it to resync or something...
Any one else running into this?
Never heard of this problem. Which roms are you loading, I would suggest asking the dev of the ROM, including all of the steps you use to install it.

To fix the market you need to reboot to clockworkmod and clear the cache. The issue with the kernel is normal, it is the HoloKernel, it just has bad information in the about screen, that's normal too.
To fix the phone issue I usually pull the battery for like 5 minutes and then toggle the network from auto to manual a couple of times and then it seems to finally pick it up. Just seems odd...

Did you flash the ATT fix after flashing RC7? If not, download ATT fix, flash Saurom RC7, wipe cache and d cache, flash ATT fix and then reboot system...
Update.....yesterday i opened the cwm and just cleared the wipe cache and then rebooted the phone and everything came back to normal...error code 492 disappeared and i was able to download all my apps.. I hope it will help somebody. Running saurom rc7. Everything looks fine so far....only data speed needs to go up some more but it could be the area....

What is the problem with the kernel that you need to flash the kernel fix? Is that only if you use holo kernel?
I'm having trouble with my E3D randomly rebooting. I've treid different Roms, kernels, CPU settings, and it always randomly reboots. Does anyone have any sugestions?

I've learned that the Anthrax kernel for Evo 3D causes a lot of reboots, despite what I had the CPU clock speeds at. But once I flashed the original 2.17 stock kernel, I haven't had a random reboot since. My ROM is Fresh Evo 3D 4.2.0 (based off of RUU 2.17).
If you're S-ON: use Flash Image GUI to flash the kernel or flash via fastboot.
Don't forget to wipe your cache and dalvik-cache
If you are using a 2.17 rom you probably need to update your firmware. There is a package here is the quote from the meanrom thread:
2.17.651.5 ROMs need the latest firmware. See freeza's all in one firmware update if you haven't done that already. If you unlocked via the HTC method, you know the drill: you'll have to take the OTA and then re-unlock.

I did this and it fixed it for me. But i have s-off and hboot 1.5.
^smokin how ya been buddy? been a while. lol
to the OP...
random reboots can be a lot of things. you need to remember that not one kernel will perform or function the same on every device. i would say flash stock kernel, if that fixes the issue, then good. if not, then there is another issue somewhere that is causing your reboots.
a few questions, though:
when it reboots, is it while you are using it? or does it just do it at random... basically what i am asking is it possible for you to cause it to reboot by doing something specific?
when it reboots, does it load up the OS completely, or does it get caught in a boot loop?
also, do it do a FULL reboot, or does it boot the boot animation (the moving animation after the static screen)?
this will help assess your problem.
My first evo 3d started doing this to me, tried everything to fix it, eventually went back to complete stock with super wipe and still didn't fix it. It got so bad that I updated to 2.17 with hboot 1.5. Phone stopped would stop responding after going through initial setup. Took it to sprint and got it replaced. Only thing I could think of that caused it is over flashing it. Flashing almost every day.
Hi. i own an HTC EVO V 4G (Virgin Mobile). i used the Search function but sadly didnt found exactly what i needed.
a month or so after activating the phone, i decided to Root, S-off, Flash Recovery, bootloader and a custom Rom. However, its been a while now, that when i do a fresh install i get some inconsistency problems. for example, my first Rom was Harmonia, but later on i switched to MidnightRom. there the problems started to show up. the Sense version was working fine, but then i wanted to try out the Jellybean version. and when i did (after wiping everything, of course) some apps were not working. PlayStore wouldnt let me download anything, Tethering was not working, when using "reboot" the phone would get in a bootloop, which would only go away by removing the battery. and 3D games (Shadowgun, Temple Run, etc.) were graphically laggy. more like, unplayable. the image was distorted to the point it was impossible to see what was going on. messed around with fixing permissions, deleting Cache and Dalvik, re-flashing, and the problem was still there. i tried with other Jellybean Roms (both 4.1 and 4.2) and noticed that the problems were still there. anyways, after deciding to live with the problems (running Wild For the Night). months later i decide to flash MidnightRom again and i see that all the problems are magically gone. to this day ive been running only 4.1+ Roms and i dont have many issues whatsoever. BUT. i tried a Senseless Stock-based Rom the other day (started to miss 3D camera) and it ran well, but the overall behavior of the phone was laggy. it would take longer than usual to do anything. took me about 5 re-flashes to get rid of all the problems. then just yesterday i tried a few other Roms. some worked, though DU was really laggy, and the icons would switch places by themselves at times. as i saw the problem was not going away with re-flashing, fixing permissions and whatnot, i decide to restore to my most stable Flashed Rom.
just to clarify, here is what i do every time im about to flash a new ROM:
Wipe everything except SD card
Wipe Cache and Dalvik
Flash.
Reboot
after i flashed, if something went wrong, or if im flashing something ontop:
Wipe Cache and Dalvik
Fix permissions
Reboot
so question is, is this normal? does this has to do with the phone switching from ICS to JB? or am i doing something wrong?
also, just curious... is there a way one could, say, by some weird reason be "half S-off"? because although my bootloader says S-Off, and i have been able to flash many things, i remember that when doing the Wire thing i experienced many errors, and the thing said it was successful by itself a few seconds later while i wasnt doing anything.
and also, which is the best and most stable Hboot version i could use?
My HBoot version is 1.04.2000 (PG8610000)
Radio is 1.09.00.0706
My Recovery is 4EXT latest version
Thanks in advance
