My replacement has 1.5 so... - HTC EVO 3D

So what kinds of options do I have in Roms... I am assuming I can't flash aosp roms through twrp because it needs a different kernel?
Do i need to look for 2.3.4 roms if I wanna flash w twrp

You can flash whatever you want.. you just either need to use the Flash Image GUI to flash kernals before you install the rom, or boot the custom recovery image from fastboot usb which will allow full write permissions and you can install anything you want.

So i shouldn't load twrp through quickboot but instead I need to flash it again

I'd recommend CWM 4.0.1.4 instead of TWRP. I've been using CWM since the days of the CDMA Hero and I've not once had a problem with it, but recently there's been an increasing number of people having issues with TWRP not flashing things properly on hboot 1.5. obviously it's up to you what recovery you use, but if it were me, I'd go with CWM

Ok, I bet I prob can't flash it through ROM manager, huh....

CWM? no, you need to flash it through fastboot, just like TWRP. I'm not the right person to be telling you how to do that though, as I've only used fastboot once, and that was to root and flash CWM to my phone (I got lucky since my 1 month old phone came with hboot 1.3)

I had 1.4 on my old one....my replacement, sadly, does not...

I just downloaded flash image GUI from the market....so all I would do is flash a kernel w that, then boot to recovery normally and flash the rom? Sorry, I'm so new to 1.5

I would recommend getting familiar with adb. Saved my ass a bunch of times. Better success rate for me than gui. Just need to be by a computer... There's a sticky in the dev section.

Ah....any cure for this? I have the Anthrax kernel flashed, but no WiFi is a deal breaker...

Edit:
I obviously could not just restore a nandroid, since I can not write to boot - so I jumped on my PC and did it that way - but instead of restoring I went and flashed an ICS rom and wifi is back! I don't care about wimax - I hardly even get 3G inside my house, nevermind 4......

Flash Image GUI works great. You can have teh rom zip on your sdcard and it will automatically pull out the kernal and flash it. When it asks you to reboot the phone, dont accept it. Manually hold down the power button to restart phone into recovery. Then you can flash your ROM. No need for computer.

Now I am having adb trouble.... when I type adb reboot bootloader it says device not recognized..... only diff is now I'm on a 4.0.3 from...?

Usb debugging checked?

yup - and foolishly i tried to nandroid - and now i cant boot regularly - it gets to the htc screen, then black w the lights on at the bottom....

go into fastboot usb and from command prompt type "fastboot boot recovery.img" (Recovery.img is the name of the custom recovery in the folder you downloaded to root your phone CWM***.IMG) Once you boot the custom recovery you can flash your rom.

Thanks...I will try that when I get home... I had been cd'ing to c-android-sdk-windows-tools and was typing:
adb reboot bootloader and then getting device not recognized
I was ultimately able to wipe and reflash my ics rom for now...since the aosp kernel was still in boot.img

Thank you so much - that worked perfectly -

At the risk of being redundant, I can use that method to flash anything, right, any ROM... Or nandroid restore... And WiFi plus 4g should work like normal?
