[Q] Flashing Newer ROMs - HTC EVO 3D

I am having an issue and can not find a solution. My phone is rooted as I can flash most of the ROMs I have came across, however, it seems as though I can not flash any ROMs based off the new ota (I think). My phone details are below.
Phone EVO 3D CDMA
Rooted
S-ON
ROM: viperROM Redline v1
Recovery: TeamWin v1.1.1
Thanks in advance guys. Missing out on all the new ROMs because of this.

What happens when you try to flash a Rom ??

What is your software? You may have issues if your 2.08 trying to flash and use 2.17 roms.

When I flash a new ROM, my phone continue to reboot over and over.
Android Version: 2.3.4

Ya but what software were you on ? Before you rooted 2.17 or 2.08 . Latest is 2.17 .
What recovery you using also I am guessing you are wiping right.
Some folks who are 2.08 older software old radios have issues flashing the latest rom builds.

Before you flash a new rom, Find the Flash Image Gui app and use it before you flash into another Rom. But just be sure you have the Rom on your SD card before you do it because you probably wont be able to boot back in to your original Rom

What you could do is return to stock 2.17.651.5 with the RUU. But maybe reaper24 has a better suggestion soyou mighy wqnna wait for him and see what he suggest.

You guys are awesome. I just reinstalled Flash Image GUI and ran the zip throu that then installed. Working fine so far. Thanks.

Yea it sounds like u not flashing the kernel with the rom. Got to the market n get Flash Image GUI..then put the rom on the sd card it doesnt have to b n the root dir. Then open Flash GUI n nav to the rom and let it scan for tbe kernel then reboot into recovery when it prompts..then wipe then nav to the rom and select it then let it install..

Installing ICS with S=OFF

I'm brand new to this phone and the rezound section on xda. I bought two of these phones yesterday and have both of them S=OFF at the moment. (Last night's fun)
In hboot they say "locked" even though S=OFF on both devices. I'd like to install an ICS ROM, but I'm not really sure what I need to install first before installing the ROM so it doesn't get all messed up.
I remember installing/flashing something on my Sensation to get ICS running on that device, but I'm just a little confused with the steps in the Development section because I'm new here.
Help?
you need to flash a modified Hboot for whichever firmware u are on

HBOOT 2.11.0000
I flashed the hboot after jhboot and I'm not sure if this is the right one for ICS?
android Version: 2.3.4
I would suggest running the latest RUU and then installing whichever ICS ROM you want.
woah wait what
what are you guys saying?
I was stock,GB,rooted, SOFF.
my hboot said 's-off' and '***LOCKED***'.
you don't need to do anything special, you are s-off!
just get the 600mb ph98img.zip from the latest leak and drop it on your SD card.
it'll have to flash twice (first reboot after boot/recovery is flashed, then it does the rest the second time through)
that's how i went to the leak, still locked and s-off. and it runs great!

So its just that simple for those of us SOFF and GB?
1) Put the PHxxxx.zip image on the SD
2) Boot it into HBoot twice (not flashing via recovery)
3) Flash over our favorite ICS Rom
No patches, no nothing? Is this right?
There are like 10 files in this link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1365654
I have S=OFF, I'm running GB, with the stock ROM and all the specs I told you. I'm not exactly clear on which one I need to install before installing a ICS ROM.
Do I install an ENG hboot... Do I install a ICS RUU file or a GB one? I'm assuming the bigger the number the newer RUU?
I'm not sure when you say about rom... i'm flashing the 600mb leak file from yesterday (5/7/2012) : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1641249
it has the radios, boot, recovery, kernel, rom, everything. I just did it all, like an OTA upgrade.

I want to Install the RUU file then a modded ROM (Clean ROM ICS)
If I install the ROM before flashing the RUU won't it bootloop?

I'm not sure... I didn't have any trouble going straight to the leaked RUU from yesterday. I have not flashed any custom roms.

Is there something wrong with the Custom ROMs? (Please Developers don't stone me)
I just came from a device with tons of custom ROMs that were way better than anything stock and would install a kernel and everything through recovery when you were installing the ROM...
I'm just not used to the process yet with this device.
I don't think there's anything wrong with them.
I just haven't taken the plunge yet, still researching.... regardless, Once you're fully up to date on the latest RUU, going to a custom rom based on it will be a piece of cake. But i'm not sure the developers have updated their roms to all the latest leaks, in which case, check with the rom you're trying to upgrade to - I'm not certain they all include new kernels/radios...etc. like the leaked ICS does.

Great question, let me test that right now.
Edit: seems to not work straight up with the one from the market. i'll check a different .apk that I have here, i know the custom roms use their own .apk's usually.
as i recall from doing this on GB, you gotta configure it right, and then it'll work. But you DO need root, so after you RUU, install AmonRA 3.15, and run the su/superuser install from the recovery menu.

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

Are you gsm or cdma? But next step would be to make sure you're running the latest firmware. If cdma then flash Freezas all in one update zip then flash a rom. Again if cdma I would suggest Mean Rom 4.2 (gingerbread) or Mean Rom .09 (ICS), they are stable with everything fully functional.

Yeah your phone is CDMA. You can root your current ROM by flashing this from recovery -----> http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1046553&d=1336400579
Or just flash another custom ROM of your choice from recovery . Almost all ROMs comes pre-rooted.
If you want the latest radios and firmware by sprint , download this ---> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18734200/PG86IMG-2.17.651.5_Firmware_Only.zip and rename it to PG86IMG.zip and put it on the root of your sdcard, boot into bootloader, it will ask if you want to update , hit yes.
And if you are going to flash the ICS leak, dont flash the firmware as some members are having problems with it. Just flash the ROM without Firmware and it should work.
EDIT: Do you have working superuser or SuperSU in your current ROM?
You said you are rooted, and you also said you have S-off and nothing else

Were the calls and texts working after achieving S-OFF and before installing the zip that I linked?
The problem you are facing is not because of the zip but i is due to revolutionary tool.
Everyone who is S-OFF faced that issue just after running revolutionary.....
It can be solved by doing hands free activation......
I am not on sprint, so just search or ask some sprint users......
Hope this helps....

Select edit mode and enter you device's msl code(MSL Reader from market can get it for you). Go to Data Profile then press menu and choose 'restore". Your phone will reboot and reprovision upon reboot.

Thanks i will try that,let you know if it works
Flash 2.17 first
But now you unlocked your device into many possibilities :
-custom roms to make the phone smoother and better battery life, like viperrom
-custom mods
-overclocking your processor
-installing custom themes
-free wifi tether
You unlocked your phone. Do whatever you want. It's free from all restrictions.
Edit: I'd like to also point out that flashing a sense 3.6 (ics sense) rom requires an adsp.img that works with ICS. Basically, don't Flash an ics sense rom unless it says Sense 4.0. Sense 4.0 roms are safe to flash.

Flash the zip from recovery that I linked in my first post of this thread on previous page to root your current ROM. Then ROM manager will ask you for superuser permissions and it will work. And instead of clockworkmod and rom manager, download and install the 4ext app from 4ext.net and it will flash 4ext recovery from that app.It is a touch recovery like twrp 2.0+ and CWM 5.8.0.x.
And are calls and texts working now??

2.13.651.1 Firmware Bits

Hey there. Today we were fortune enough to see such a beautiful update with Android 4.0.4 and Sense 4.1. Along came some new firmware. Here you'll find three flashable zips, one with the entire firmware package (new hboot, kernel, and recovery), one without hboot and recovery, and one just alike, but without the kernel, hboot, and recovery. I've tested the no kernel, hboot, and recovery version, and it was successful.
This updates your Baseband (Radio) to
v.1.12.11.0809, And your HBoot (Bootloader) to v.1.19.00.
Don't blame me if your phone blows up. I didn't make these, I am simply sharing them. I am here to help if you need it though.

Download your zip of choice, and rename it to PJ75IMG.zip, and save it to the root of your external sd card. Reboot into bootloader mode, and accept the update. Let it run through, and wait for the successful message. Don't forget to delete the PJ75IMG.zip off of the root of your external sd card after updating, so that if worst case scenario, you can reboot into bootloader or recovery mode. Once you flash the latest firmware, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REVERRT TO THE PREVIOUS FIRMWARE VERSION. It has been reported to brick devices for good!

Q: "I flashed a version with the new kernel included, and all of a sudden my WiFi is borked, F*#% YOU RYDAH! How do i fix it?"

A: Revert to a kernel that is based on your rom version. You have a few options, 1: Restore a recent nandroid. Be sure to only restore the "boot" partition, and you'll be good to go. 2: Re-flash the kernel you were using. If you'd like, you could take the modules folder from the OTA, and push them over, replacing the old modules folder. (SYSTEM/LIB/MODULES/) - That is merely a suggestion, as others have stated, but I cannot confirm this, as I am running 2.13.651.1.
Q: "I put the zip on my external SD card, booted into bootloader mode, and it didn't recognize/find the zip, what the hell man!?"

This may be a dumb question but why would anyone want to flash the hboot and recovery version or is it useful for developers somehow?
thanks boss!!!!!!!! your quick!!!!!!! :good:

Hey there. Today we were fortune enough to see such a beautiful update with Android 4.0.4 and Sense 4.1. Along came some new firmware. Here you'll find two flashable zips, one with the entire firmware package (new hboot, kernel, and recovery) and one just alike, but without the kernel, hboot, and recovery. I've tested the no kernel, hboot, and recovery version, and it was successful.
This updates your Baseband (Radio) to
v.1.12.11.0809, And your HBoot (Bootloader) to v.1.19.00.
How to flash (install):
Downliad your zip of choice, and rename it to PJ75IMG.zip, and save it to the root of your external sd card. Reboot into bootloader mode, and accept the update. Let it run through, and wait for the successful message.

Is it possible to throw up a version with the kernel included as well, but not the HBOOT or RECOVERY for those of S-OFF that want to flash the kernel through bootloader as well?
If it is possible to just take the boot.img (kernel) from the one version you have up and add it to the one w/o the boot.img in it and flash that through bootloader; I can just do that...
Let me know please and THANK YOU MUCH for being so quick about it.
just flashed worked perfect!! :good:

Is there something that prevents flashing if your battery is too low? I tried and it failed so I redownloaded and tried again but failed. Admittedly my battery is at 13% right now though. Or would being on viper ROM prevent it for some reason?
Just updated, no issues to report !

i believe the answer is Yes and flashing stuff while that low is playing with fire. Turn it off, put it on a wall charger and wait 30 minutes, bro. The file ain't going anywhere
anyone report better wifi/3g speeds and stability?

Don't hold me to it but i dont think it matters what ROM your on because this is just firmware updates not a new ROM. i have the same problem sometimes when doing this kind of install method and the problem is that its named wrong. once you d load it and put it on your SD card go into es file explore and rename it in there. then try again and see what happens.

You should be 50 %, my recommendation is 100% before u start fooling around with ur phone, I learned that lesson the hard way when I bricked my phone with 30 % battery and it didn't want to charge, and ruu wouldn't run since the phone didn't have enough power. I eventually got the phone to charge but I had no phone for like 2 hours, you never know what can go wrong. Especially with radios they will brick ur phone for good.
I know from past experience with my evo 3d, running a new rom with a new base, and having the older firmware caused issues, but it shouldn't cause issues running new firmware with older rom base right?
I updated radio and firmware before the Rom last time with out issues

I'm pretty sure you have to be S-OFF to flash. You would get errors if you're not since these aren't signed with HTCs key.

[Q] cant install ICS

i got an HTC EVO 3D (CDMA/sprint)
its rooted
HBOOT 1.5
unlocked
currently has 4EXT recovery
running gingerbread (synergy)
every time i try to install an ICS rom it freezes on boot (some cases crashes as soon as you see the lockscreen)
i can however install gingerbread roms without problems
ive tried using ota's (what apperantly doesnt work if its rooted and has an recovery flashed)
cwm recovery (which i cant flash kernels)
twrp (can only install ingerbread roms, ICS roms still freeze on boot)
4EXT (first flash boot.img through fastboot than install rom, this works lil bit better than twrp becouse some ICS roms get to the unlock screen befoor they crash)
can anyone please help me? ):

You need to be S-off in order to flash an ICS ROM, unless you use 4EXT smart flash, which isn't guaranteed to work.

OK, some more information would help, like why can't you install them? Are you getting an error? Are you flashing the correct hboot?

ive got TuopunutBear's custom HBOOT 1.50.5050
and im in an bootloop (it crashes right after the HTC logo)
cant even flash GB roms anymore
You need to be using either the sprint 1.58 or the vm 1.57 hboots afaik
You just need to get back the bootloader first - take out the battery, put it back in, power on, hold volume down...

how do i flash those HBOOT's?

Make sure you are S-OFF and have a compatible firmware/HBOOT.

Frank....I think the issue is you probably installed the wrong rom version....This is very important that you install the correct rom for Evo 3d GSM or CDMA version or you would get Bootloop...I would suggest you install this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991150
and make sure you use 4EXT latest version, S-Off, Unlocked...
This rom is Viper3d Sense 4.1 and the most stable and fast ICS rom so far for GSM and CDMA......Since you have S-off and unlocked...you dont have to flash the boot.img separately....just copy the rom files to Sdcard then follow my instruction:
1)Do a full wipe (Wipe data/reset factory, Wipe cach+davik, Format partrition [without Sdcard])
2)Install from zip card,,,then choose the rom....
3)Reboot...it should work great if you do as i said.....
Furthermore....i would recommend you install Anthrax kernel....i dont know if the forum is allow me to send the link here.....??

I had this issue. If every Rom you flash bootloops, you may want to run the ruu.exe to reset your phone (you'll still be s-off). Hopefully this will get your phone booting. Then flash a custom hboot (I use 1.4 revolutionary) and then custom recovery (I use 4ext). You should be able to flash anything at that point (except a select few roms).
You can get the ruu.exe and other files from the thread I linked earlier.
GET HBOOT 1.49.0007 unlocked and s-off and 4ext as recovery then it should.work with most roms!

NO, NO, NO! He's CDMA and that's a GSM hboot. Don't flash that or it'll be trouble.

Wait, is he REALLY CDMA?
I'm confused right now.
It says he's from Europe, which usually uses GSM.
-shrugs-
Well, all I have to add is if you're flashing the kernel right away, don't set the overclock value to high, that's what causes bootloops/hangs.
Set your max cpu to stock (1188 MHz) for now. Then once it boots, overclock. I find that anything fast 15XX MHz causes bootloops with new versions of kernels.
I bought it from ebay becouse it was so much cheaper (I know europe is gsm only)
do I have to run an ruu or flash hboot
And which versions of those

First i need to identify what version of phone you are using frank...do you use simcard?if yes...then your phone is Gsm...otherway is Cdma....let me know first

Go to this website www.htcruu.com and make sure you install the correct ruu to return to stock rom. At first you need to lock your phone by using fastboot flash lock oem....(google how to lock your phone ) then run the ruu file...
After that, unlock your phone again. So tour phone now would be Unlocked+S-off. At thia stage,you can install viper3d rom without problem...make sure you choose ruu for sprint with ics+radio 11.77
