Well, finally it happened--Sprint and HTC released an official ICS ROM! Here is the firmware package for it that will update everything except the kernel, hboot, and recovery to the official ICS versions.
download PG86IMG
MD5: E62D140A3C8CD00A2EB1210CB41D527B
This second package includes the hboot update as well: I've heard that this will write S-ON for anyone who is S-OFF. Rename this file to "PG86IMG.zip" Proceed with caution.
download PG86IMG with hboot
MD5: 58E7D186C15A37C52E45A686DFEB641F
As usual, this file must be on the root of your SDcard and flash this in bootloader while either S-ON (not HTC unlocked) OR S-OFF.
OLD OUTDATED deprecated VM firmware:
Hi guys.
After the last screw up with VM firmware, this time will be slightly different. There will be three different PG86IMG.zips.
One will be for those who have already taken the full firmwrae update last time and are unaffected by it.
Second one will be for those who want updated asdp and radio (which can easily be downgraded)
First let's start with some facts: The following has been updated from the original VM leak:
dzdata_4g.hdr
adsp.img
boot_signed.img
dzdata_4g.img
hboot_SHOOTER_1.57.0000_signedbyaa.img
partition.img
pg2fs_spcustom.img
radio.img
ramdisk.img
recovery_signed.img
rpm.img
sbl1.img
sbl2.img
sbl3.img
system.img
tz.img
wimax.img
What hasn't been updated is:
rcdata.img (pretty sure this is PRI and could also be partly resopnsible for the "Virgin Mobile" banner fiasco)
rfg_1 (this could be reponsible for the "Virgin Mobile" banner fiasco)
rfg_2 (this could be responsible for the "Virgin Mobile" banner fiasco)
splash1.nb0 (splash screen, derp)
Now let's get down to business;
For thsoe who want to live on the edge, there is a way to back up your phone's partitions in an attempt to restore them back to what they were. There are two ways to do it, one requires a "brick" using emmc_recover, and the other is this simple command:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk# of=/sdcard/mmcblk#.img
Where # is the partition you want to back up. The EVO 3D, if I'm not mistaken, has 34 partitions, but the one we probably want the most is partition 19 (radio_config). It wouldn't hurt to back them all up if you have not taken any virgin mobile leaks.
Anyway on to the PG86IMGs!
[size=+3]WARNING:[/size]
PG86IMGFULL.zip: Will contain everything the first one did. This is for people who have taken the first firmware and have no side-effects. ("Virgin Mobile" banner will come back)
PG86IMGLITE.zip: This will contain the radio, wimax, and asdp updates.
PG86IMGEXP.zip: This will contain everything the full one does MINUS the rcdata/rf_1/rf_2. (which should eliminate the "Virgin Mobile" banner but will not update PRI)
Note: You will have to remove "FULL", "LITE" and/or "EXP" from the filename before the phone will attempt to update itself with them.
Now, if closeone and/or Unknownforce wants to take a crack at modifying one or all three of the files (rf_1,rf_2,rcdata) to get rid of the Virgin Mobile banner, and to make it 'Sprintified" so that it isn't just a mask up, then we will be in business.
Nooo...just noooo...(consuela)

I'm just going to leave this here as well. Posted it in the other thread.
I'm relatively sure that freeza can attest to this. If everything is working fine right now, and you (the user of the EVO 3D) are satisfied with the experience, I would suggest not flashing it yet. When things settle down, ROM developers will tell you if you absolutely need to upgrade anything. I just wouldn't do it for the sake of doing it.
Sorry. Just my two cents.
Thanks Whosdaman for the leak post, and freeza for the updates in this thread.

Completely agree. I would only take this update if you've taken the first one and weren't effected by it. For those who can't boot ICS ROMs, maybe the LITE version will help you (since it does include asdp, wimax, and radio updates. all of which are absolutely reversible) Other than that, like closeone said, it's not really needed.

I can defiantly pull out a hex editor and start looking into what changes it makes. You may receive a PM from me in a second.
~co~
I will just point out that I strongly suggest waiting to flash anything like this until it's confirmed that it can be reverted properly.
I'm sure that it can be done, but it's gonna take some time to figure it out. Don't expect a fast turn around. I'm working on it as much as I can.
A lot of flash-aholics are probably going to screw up their phones with this... Don't flash unless you absolutely know what you are doing/getting into

update: for me (in the Miami, FL area) ping is about the same @ ~150-160, download is a bit slower @ 400kbps (from ~700 @ this busy time)... upload gained a nice 200kbps boost (~650kbps). going back to 2.17, testing again... then trying the new one but LITE only.
btw i have all my 3g settings tweaked and tested max... (HA ips tested and selected, DSS/RTSP disabled, 3g Turbocharger script, reverse tunneling and many other things in QPST turned off. at highest peak i get 2.2Mbps, but thats at 3:30am)... so glad my towers have been fixed here
I flashed the full one but I'm on cricket wireless so either way it doesn't effect me

I haven't seen any real side effects, but I have noticed that I can't get all three bars on my 4g. So which one should I flash?

lite or exp. in your case, i would say lite. the other things in exp are a bit remedial. i have a post on 1st page with what i got in results. however, neither will bring the VM banner.
i was affected by the fist vm firmware every so often my phone doesnt get any text messages or makes calls it takes from5 mins to hours before i get texts so i have to constantly have to reset my phone. would this fw will fix my issues?
my phone went from a auto-bot to a decepticon. wth

Same here. Should I risk it? If the damn LTE's were in stock by next I would just do it but who facking knows. (No, I did not preorder one, decided on Monday I would get one)
I just flashed the EXT version. I had previously flashed VM firmware and reverted back with RUU 2.17 firmware and then the Sprint renaming fix. New firmware seems to work fine. I can make outgoing calls. The lockscreen and notification bar no longer say Sprint, however. But, like I said, calls go out just fine.

Reverted to "Virgin Mobile"?
I do have a modified rfg_1.img and rcdata.img now.
No guarantees. I'm actually afraid of releasing them.
rfg_2.img contains no data at all.
Depending on the situation. If you don't mind risking a brick, I'll post them. But I'm having some dinner first.

As a followup to my GBTweaked ROM for locked bootloaders, I thought I should start a thread this.
This ROM is based off the Official Sony ICS Beta, and will feature many great tweaks similar to my other ROM.
And the best news, everything CDMA Related will be working!
I plan to have this up and running within the next week or so for unlocked bootloaders, followed by a released for locked as soon as an R800i ICS .tff is released.
Whats Working:
Almost everything thats not related to the CDMA Radio
Whats Sometimes Working:
Calls
Data
Some users are reporting them working, some are not.
Whats Not Working
MMS

Locked Bootloaders
Advanced User's Guide
(All download links in the Downloads section below)
1. Backup anything
2. Flash Sony ICS Beta
3. Reboot into recovery. Perform a factory reset
4. Flash DarkforestICS Kernel.
5. Flash ICSTweaked and Gapps
6. Enjoy
Beginner's Guide
1. Backup any apps/data using Titanium Backup or CWM (or if you dont like having your apps, skip this step.)
2. Download the Sony ICS Beta for Xperia Play from here.
3. Extract the contents to the location of your fastboot folder (Default should be "C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools")
4. Make sure your Xperia Play is turned off, and hold the search button (far right) while plugging your phone into the USB. (Your Notification light should now be blue.
5. Open up command prompt, and cd to the location of your fastboot folder.
6. You should now be able to issue the following commands
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
7. After all flashing is complete, reboot your device, and let it fully boot and configure itself. (If you've done this right, it should boot up the ICS Beta, and you should not be able to receive a signal.)
8. Turn off your device, and go into fastboot mode (as mentioned above.)
9. Download KeiranFTW's ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.2.8 from here, and boot it up as instructed in his thread.
10. Download ICSTweaked and gapps from the downloads section below. Save them anywhere that you have easy access.
11. Download KeiranFTW's Darkforest Kernel from his thread here, and save it to your fastboot folder.
12. Delete the boot.img you downloaded from the Sony ICS Beta, and rename the kernel you just downloaded to boot.img
13. On your phone, go into "Mounts and Storage > Mount USB Storage". You should now have SDCard access on your computer.
14. Move ICSTweaked and the gapps your downloaded to the root of your SDCard.
15. On your phone, do a full factory reset. Then proceed to flash ICSTweaked.zip, followed by the version of gapps you downloaded.
16. (Make sure your phone is unplugged at this point) After flashing, turn off your phone, and reboot back into fastboot mode.
17. Flash the renamed Darkforest Kernel (should now be boot.img) using the following command.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
18. Reboot your device, and enjoy the new ROM! First boot should take a while.

IMHO, until someone presents us with an ICS based ROM (not CM based, but Sony based) that has reliably functional CDMA capabilities including true 3G data capability and calling, NO ONE has already done this. Different ones of us have had data and calls working at one point or other but their results can't be duplicated by others following the exac same steps. Heck, I had calls and fully working 3G data at one point, until I made a nandroid to test something else. I could never get it to work again.

Plus this is a "followup" of GBTweaked.
I just hope 3G Data and call works so we can finally have a real ICS build without any issues...
Pretty excited, as I loved the GBTweaked ROM.
any builds or updates ?
So any news on this seems like a radio silence in the thread . if you need any help testing let me know. Contacted you about that before so if you need me to help please let me know.

If you want to try ICS now, paxChristos's CDMA CM9 runs AMAZING on this device. The only issue is some game compatibility, and a bit lower battery life

Agreed. I am current running it as a matter of fact. The one quirk I hate is the fact that the analog controls do not work correctly here in Pew Pew 2 Not pax's fault, but apparently an issue with the controls in CM9. Question is, can it be fixed? (Along with the Pac Man issue of course)
Version RC1 based on Wind 1.46.1500.3.
This ROM is designed for Wind variant only, READ EVERYTHING before flashing
I worked very hard to write the update.zip script and modifing the stock ROM to do this as flawless as possible. I am also providing my own direct mirrors at my own expenses
Everything is done practically from scratch, so any donations will be appreciated!
Boot partition (kernel) will not be touched or included in this ROM, so Wind users can safely flash away!
Features:
------------------------------------------------------------
deodexed
zipaligned on boot
1% battery steps notification icon
overscroll glow (white)
disabled capacitive button lights
allows it to go to mininal brightness when dark enough (autobrightness)
minimum clock speed to 192MHz from stock 384MHz to save battery
my build.prop tweaks
blocked ads
DSP Manager
removed some bloat
removed Wind's bootanimation (that was ugly as hell....)
disable ext4 journaling
sd cache to 2048 to improve speed
updated crap loads of system apps
I am probably missing a few more, can't remember all
Planned Features:
------------------------------------------------------------
30 Media Steps (done)
Transparent Scrollbars so it does not look so "old" (done)
CRT off animation (done, thanks to heyjoe66!)
Webkit text reflow disabled by default (looking into this)
Fix garbled camera preview and video playback (looking into this)
* done means will be added to next release
Bugs:
------------------------------------------------------------
- Mail cannot start and FC every time due to some hard coded lines in Mail.apk, it requires an odexed framework. FIXED IN RC2
- If you are coming from another custom ROM, you must nand restore to original or RUU to global. Otherwise, you will get codec issues for lines in videos and camera previews.
Install instructions:
------------------------------------------------------------
Unlock bootloader
Install TWRP recovery
Nand backup (boot, system)
Flash Clear Wind zip
Reboot
If you are coming from another custom ROM:
Use hasoon2000's toolkit and install original Wind's kernel or flash RUU
Install TWRP recovery
Nand backup (boot, system)
Flash Clear Wind zip
Reboot

I will be deploying through fastboot, no need to flash custom recovery theoretically. And the deployment only flashes the system partition, I also have a stock unmodified version of system(not even rooted) so you can always go back to stock if necessary.
So all you need is unlocked bootloader, but you can always relock it after you reflash my stock system.img through fastboot
I'm willing to beta test it
(Side note: I'm in the need of the stock wind rom, hope you have it )

You can find the most recent WIND/GlobaLive RUU's and most others in my public Dev-Host folder (linked below). I uploaded them here because if was very hard to get an open download slot at FileFactory.com (used by Football & TMartin) Dev-Host has been reliable me (I donated a little $$ to them as well, so we can all have easy access to these files).
***I got all of these RUU's from Football & TMartin except Globalive 1.46.1500.3 which is from bbs.gfan.com (Chinese Web Site)***

Turns out, you can't use fastboot to flash images that big.... I am not sure how RUU could. I searched it up, seems like a lot of RUU's are having the same issues.
You will need to use custom recovery, for this one, I chose TWRP. (might work with CWM)
It is in your best interest to do a nand backup for now with your stock unmodified system because I never tried RUU if it can fully recover. I can provide the stock recovery image later so you can restore using custom recovery and flash the original recovery image via fastboot then relock, no need RUU at this point.
You flash RUUs by renaming it to P85IMG.ZIP (correct me if I'm wrong) have it on your sdcard (don't remember if Internal or external) then boot into HBoot. It will find the file and flash it. Not sure if you must relock your bootloader or not.
Wait....I sent this with Tapatalk?

Yeah, I am aware of the process, but it is just that i found some other HTC devices getting the errors. I am not sure how RUU handles the process, even renaming it to "P85IMG.ZIP" might end up extracting the img files inside, one of them being system.img.
for the global RUU's, they come in exe format, I think it walks you through the process to restore it, but I never did.
Have you tried adb commands?

Pretty sure within recovery, I can adb shell and use dd to copy it over, but it will require 1.5GB + on the sdcard for the uncompressed system.img. so yeah, that is why i made the update zip instead, easier for people to use. If they are required to use custom recovery, might aswell make it easy for them

No camera (lines instead of live image), no WiFi (error), no Exchange Sync (force close).
Wiped /data - still no success.

Because you are using a Wind variant, and you have installed a custom ROM with custom kernel not supported by Wind variant. you need to use the toolkit to flash Wind's kernel and flash Clear Wind again

Can you point out where can I find a stock 1.46.1500.3 kernel?
BTW I flashed [Kernel]Amaze[2.6.35.13](v009)OC~1.73/JRCU/UV/CIFS+UTF-8/Power Saving[Mar-13] kernel now.
WiFi is now working, but still no camera/Exchange.
Are you sure Exchange force close can be kernel-related?

Faux's kernel has different video codec handling, your camera or any other video playback in youtube etc in horizontal will look like that until you install the Wind's kernel. You will need toolkit version 3.1, not 3.0 on xda. you can find it on android-dev.us
I am getting FC's on the Mail app too, I think it is the result of deodexed framework. I see lots of other ROMs are having the same issues logged in thedebug monitor. Anything else FC's?

No other FC so far.
Just flashed stock kernel. No go, still lines in camera.
Wiped data, system, cache.

UPD
Performed a clean reinstall. Epic fail.
Same here, getting lines in the camera. Everything else works fine (besides mail FC)

Data drops are a common issue on cm10 jb Roms, I would suggest using agrabren disarmed toaster version 67 , or helicopters 88 cm10 nightlies

I'm using the same cm10 and it's ok.
Did you wipe all partitions first (except sd) and then install it?
Also you have to install the correct version of gapps. 20121011 i think it was. It's linked to from the op of the thread.
Also your touch screen issues with the Evo 3d could very likely be hardware related. I've had to have that fixed twice at the Sprint store. It's a known issue.
when rewinding video on IMDB says "can't play this video"

Thank mojo for your reply....i did full wipe ( Wipe data/reset + Cach and davik + format partrition without sdcard) before install..About the laggy....it happens not only on my phone but on my friend phone that i try to install this rom on also...so i think this is not relating to hardware....i will try to reflash and choose the right Gapps to see if this fix the issue and report back..
No problem. Also you should be S-Off with any hboot except 1.58.
I did wire trick then flashed jbear 1.58 then downgraded to 1.50 jbear. Then did full wipe and flashed gangnam style cm10. My radio firmware was already up to date. Maybe you should first take the extra time to put it back to stock with ruu just to make sure your radios and everything are most recent? If you have the patience you could try to follow QADERSO (quick and dirty...) guide to returning to stock then doing root and s-off and jbear. Just add final step of downgrading to jbear 1.50 by downloading it to your sdcard and renaming it to PG86IMG.ZIP then going into bootloader once. Then you can wipe and install cm10. Also I use 4ext touch recovery and highly recommend it.
Doing all that should guarantee you are identical to me. There are still some issues with this ROM but not the serious ones you describe.
Problems I'm having are the camera resolution or ratio is weird (i get black bars above and below) and if i connect wifi with 4G on then the 4G goes into some kind of loop connecting then disconnecting then disable and enable adapter and repeat. CM10 power control in notification bar for 4g is kind of spotty too. I'll pay with it for a while longer before making a final decision but I think so far the pros outweigh the cons. I did find also that i was using tons more internal storage and ran out of space for my apps so i partitioned my sd card and have it a 3gb ext4 partition and installed Links2SD app and now have lots of space for apps. Maybe one of these days I'll write a guide for the whole process.
Found a bigger issue with this ROM and updating to today's release did not help. /data partition is filling up because wimax is running in debug mode or something. /data/wimax/logs directory is filling up quickly while wimax is on. I had 700mb from less than 24 hrs.
I cleaned them up manually but will need to schedule a batch job to delete it or figure out how to stop generating the logs...

Known issue. Just "flash" the attached zip file from recovery which will delete/recreate that directory then mark it immutable so no more logs accumulate.

I had a couple of questions if anybody has had experience with such, first one...
Has anyone tried to use the Acid audio RLA5 sound mod and if so, I've heard that having a eq already in the ROM makes it
all goofy for install? Is this true and if so, has anyone else used this mod and what procedure did you do?
As for the second part, has anyone had any luck finding a full inverted gapps that everything will work? I thought I found one but it didn't have contacts inverted, then found another but it crashed google now. If anyone has had any luck could you drop me a link. ( all gapps including mms etc..)
On the 3rd part of the adventure of swapping out apks, I updated google ears via alert from playstore and it crashes something else.. LOL. Its just a never ending battle. But, through the day I found a piece here and there and now it all seems to be working and all inverted and that is after updating what play store wanted to.
Right now creating a flashable.zip that should work but not certain on the rules as to post. I already have a pre- written statement that announces that I take no credit in the creation and also name the Devs responsible and also will be linking their threads as well but not sure if that is enough. If anyone has any input that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Z.

thank Mojo again for a very clear instruction....I have a question:
1) Is it true that i get my radio update to version 11.77 (it is 10.xx at the moment) when i install this RUU file (RUU_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.28.401.1_Radio_11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M_release_262714_signed.exe).
2)Will my Hboot change after this install??? and also my phone come back to S-on????
3)When i do this install with this file PG86IMG.zip from bootloader then it will get hboot change as far as i know right....???
IF my knowledge was correct, i will give it a try to install the RUU file to update my phone's radio back to 11.77 (it was 11.77 before i did the downgrade hboot to 1.49.007 from 1.53.xx) then install Gangnam Style rom to see if the 3g issue go away....
If i was wrong that when i install the RUU, my phone will be S-on again...im so lazy to try this because i will stick with Viper3d sense 4.1 then...
1 more thing mojo...i am using the latest disarm toaster rom (DisarmedToaster-0.2.9-67-shooteru)

Thanks ramjet. Actually I already switched to the AOKP release (Linaro build) which is very similar to the ROM mentioned in this topic and doesn't have the Wimax log issue but hopefully that zip is out there for others to find because I didn't see it in the dev thread for that ROM at least not at the time I mentioned it above anyway. There's a few small Q's I have about this AOKP ROM but I should start a new topic for those.

If you are referring to mazda's AOKP ROM it does have the same problem with wimax logs accumulating and there is link to a post after the last question in the FAQ that has the same zip file I linked in this thread.

That RUU file is for Europe.... Are you in Europe? Is that a GSM phone? If so I'm afraid I can't advise about radio firmware versions. Firmware for radio is probably different for European users and the guide which I was referencing is Ramjet's guide found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1889438 but that guide is for Sprint or Virgin Mobile users (CDMA phones). Basically the guide is accurate I think for European user too but the RUU file should be different. Well, you should consult Ramjet on that as he wrote the guide and may know more. Also, you are correct that running the RUU will return the phone almost completely to stock. It replaces radio firmwares and HBOOT and will put you back to non-root. I just suggested it as a way to make sure you go completely back to stock and start from scratch so I can be sure you were on same versions of everything as me but if you are in Europe you cannot exactly follow it maybe. Anyway, I think you have explained all your issues though. By the sound of it you probably flashed USA (Sprint) radio firmware by accident when you downgraded your HBOOT. Next time you downgrade HBOOT you should make sure the file you are using is HBOOT only with NO radio firmwares in it.
So I think you have two options....
1.) To go back to stock using latest Europe RUU, root/S-OFF phone again (S-OFF might stay, I forget), put 4EXT back and then try to downgrade HBOOT to a compatible version again. This time you must downgrade without changing radios or if you can find a flashable zip with just your proper European 11.77 radios then you can flash just the radios back to 11.77 after downgrade. I don't know the version numbers for GSM phones for HBOOT or radios so I apologize if I am getting this wrong.
2.) Assuming your only problem is the 3g connection currently then maybe you can just find a flashable zip which will update only your radio firmware back to 11.77 without having to go completely back to stock. If everything else about the phone seems OK then this is definitely faster assuming you can find the right file.
Again, I know little about GSM phones and European radios so you may want to find a more knowledgeable person to help you. Definitely though if you flashed the wrong radios then you will lose your 3G connection! I have seen HBOOT's posted both with and without radio firmwares included so I think from now on you must be extra careful when flashing HBOOT to make sure you are not changing radios to USA radios and you should keep around a flashable zip with only your 11.77 radios in it so you can fix this as it may happen again.
Good luck!
If you read the developer's thread carefully you'll notice that he affirmed that data drops will occur.

Yes, Mazda's rom is the one I am using now. I wiped everything, then flashed 3.5 and then immediately did incremental to 3.5.2 then gapps of course and wiped dalvik and rebooted into rom. I checked and wimax logs were not accumulating like they had been. I just checked again and there are only some small "sequansd##.log" files in that directory but these files are tiny (about 9kb) each. I suppose it could become a problem after many months of use but when I was using the Gangnam Style CM10 rom mentioned in the title I filled the remainder of my /data partition in a single day with a ton of 500K files (forgot the name of the file) in addition to the sequansd files. So I guess these logs if not rotated could eventually become a problem but the severity of the issue is nowhere near on the same scale with a clean install Mazda's 3.5.2.
I just set the /data/wimax/logs folder permissions to 440 and deleted the sequansd log files so I think that will suffice? If not I'll flash the zip. I'm just being lazy.
BTW, thanks for your posts in Mazda's thread (using Power Toggles now and I love it) and your QADERSO guide. Both have been very helpful to me.
That ROM is known to have data drops on a mobile network. You can't do anything about it as the ROM is built that way. The only fix would be for the developer to fix it or for you to chanhe ROM.
Goodluck!

Logs were still being written even when people changed permissions. The only way to stop the logs was to make the folder immutable. I flash the zip as part of my install.

WOW.....i think i got the wrong Rom downgrading my Hboot to 1.49.007......My phone's radio was 11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06 and Hboot=1.53.......After i tried to S-off and downgrade hboot to 1.49.007....my phone radio is 10.53.9020.00U_10.13.9020.08 at the moment and it is working fine with my rom Viper3d R310. Also i live in asia Vietnam......
Mojo....do you think i should get my radio back to 11.77 even my phone is working fine with this radio 10.53,??? i really dont know where can i look up the file for the radio only??/ and how to install it....anyone here can help me with the correct file for the radio???
Yup. You're right. Still accumulating. I'll flash the zip. Although it's probably just a debug setting somewhere that needs to be flipped off. Could be in kernel or in the module loading. Although I'm thinking in Linux terms. Not sure how much of that really translates to android and I'm not about to start mucking around compiling my own kernel.

This issue first surfaced in agrabren's disarmed toaster CM10 ROM and he didn't offer another solution, so I have to believe that any thing other than what has already been suggested would not be trivial.

About a month ago I had issue with phone stuck on HFA. Several great people offer help to try to fix issue. Could never get problem to go away.. sent to Samsung since Knox was 0x0 and sent same phone back notes said they just flashed software.. I got it and ran good till 2 days ago.. my text wouldn't send. Everything else worked fine.. voice and data and apps.. so did the prl and profile update like sprint asked me to .. then text worked but no data... decided to do factory reset.. then issue was couldn't sign in to google(data not provisioned ).. after talking to sprint and Google they said not sure how to fix it.. only solution that worked was roll back to NAB everything working.. anyone else experience anything like this? Phone out of warranty like 3 days wondering if I should try to get a replacement or is a NC5 software issue

I would ask how's it going but here we are again. Lol I remember that, and have to say NC5 has not had that many issues. So, it ran good for about a month, then would not send a text ? Did Sprint say anything about working on a cell tower ? Nothing was changed, added, or deleted prior to it not working ? Try going to settings/connections/more networks/mobile networks/network mode/ and make sure it is on LTE/CDMA not automatic. Also when you update your PRL you have to completely power down, and then reboot the device for the PRL update to take effect I know it says update successful but that don't mean it has been applied to the device. If you go back to NC5 from NAB again your have update your PRL example : I updated to 4.4.4 today to check and see if Nh7 has a flash counter, which it does, so I went back to 4.4.2 NC5, after about 3 flashes I finally got NC5 back to official status, and than tried to download an app from Google Play it said no connection retry so I updated my PRL and rebooted the device, and my 4G LTE started working again. Where were you when it quit working ? Where you on the road out town ? If you leave town you should update your PRL it is supposed to do it automatically, but doesn't always happen.
Well I was at work and no issues got home and I got a text when I tried to reply it would not send.. I could only receive . So my 1st thought was towers since I had issues with tower close to my house several times.. after asking sprint said network was good my gf. Gs3 had no issues either .. so then tried prl and profile updates that would make my text work but my data would drop.. after a restart text would fail but data worked.. after talking to sprint and google.. ( they blamed it on rooted since they can see what apps u buy) titanium... but after going back to NAB all issues gone.. I am currently back on NC5 did a full un root version and will see. Guessing it's a NC5 issue or hardware

Ok, sounds like software, here is what I would do. Go to micmars here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2712205 and get his NC5. Now back up all your data i.e. pics, music, etc. to a ext sd card or PC desktop. Go ahead to do a factory reset. Next with odin on your PC flash a fresh copy of NC5. Now this is the IMPORTANT PART check your download mode screen should look like this :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Both lines at official status, sometimes you end up custom and official, so if not boot into your stock recovery, and use the device keys and do a factory reset again. Then odin flash a fresh copy of NC5 again. I know it seems like a lot of B.S. but I call it taking out the trash, you need to get back to stock square one. Boot it up see if the issues are gone, if so odin flash a recovery here is the link for Philz CWM 6.12.9 hltespr its bulletproof https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/hltespr/ then root your device here is the link for SupSu v 1.94 http://download.chainfire.eu/396/SuperSU/ Now if everything is working with no issues, make a backup so you can always restore back to a working OS. Let me know how it goes ?
Will rather stay on NAB or NC5 for little bit more.. warranty runs out in a week if new or old issues happen will root and break Knox to get custom rom.. only reason staying on stock was my warranty.. I was just curious to see if anyone had encounter issues like me.. also upgrading to note 4 in few weeks

Cool, been thinking about an LG G3 myself. Definitely not as many features as Note 4, but more of a pure android OS. The main features of the G3 is no KNOX, little to no bloatware, will run under water, and a removable battery.
Yea wish Samsung would make the bloatware optional.. and Knox also LG3 does look sweet also

In TWRP, select Wipe>Advanced>then select cache, dalvic, data,and system. DO NOT select int or ext SD.
2. Flash Rom
3. Profit!
After install:
Go to Settings>System Updates> and update profile/prl. You can also go to "Activate this device".
If you do not have Sprint bootani or Wifi Calling
You will need your MSL number and do the dialer reset. So in the Dialer ##786#. This will wipe your int SD!! And everthing else, so you will be starting fresh.

Info and stuffs
This might be a minor update, but there are quite a few changes as far as reception things go.
I've flashed this 4 times and it installs differently each time. So MAKE A BACKUP FIRST!!!!
After Flashtool from ZV4, I had to do a battery pull when it was trying to boot up. But then it booted right up.
I need to run this for a few days before I do any changes for BARE?????
More later
Thanks for the quick update! Unfortunately for me I am stuck at the LG logo though. Any ideas? (Did clean wipe twice as well as a few battery pulls)

What bootloader are you on? You need to be using ZV4 bootloader.
Also check the md5sum.
Let it sit for a couple minutes when on the logo. It seems to take it's sweet time.

Not sure on bootloader, I would assume ZV4 as I had that originally when I got the phone *and have since just flashed updates from here* I can check if there is a way?
I did check the md5sum, that matched. I am guessing the above?

Your on ZV4 if you haven't rooted ZVA, B, or C. Try flashing it again and give it a couple minutes at the logo. It should then go to the updating android thingy.
I kinda wondered if this one would give us issues. It just didn't feel right when I was working on it. But it runs just fine when installed. And I've installed it 4 times.
If that doesn't work, try flashing the ZV4 rpm, tz partitions and ZVB modem, after flashing the rom. And before booting it up. Maybe?
If there are others that have issues, then I'll need to re-work it.
Edit. @ssmercurys OK, I'm pretty sure, at least in your case, its the rpm,tz partitions.
So flash the ROM, then flash the zv4 rpm,tz partitions, then reboot.
You can find them in post #2 or #3 of almost all of my roms. I'll get them here too.

I have them already as I've had issues with that on every new ROM base. Let me give that a shot here quick and i'll report back.
*Edit, no go. I'll give the ZV4 tot a try tomorrow and flash after.

You shouldn't need to use flashtool. Unless you want to. I did it just to clean things up before updating.
Try putting the rom on internal sd and remove your ext sd. Then flash it. Your ext sd might be causing issues also. It's just another easier option than flashtool. And it helps rule that out. Or as the culprit.
I'm in the same boat as ssmercurys. Stuck at the animated LG logo, I tried flashing the ZV4 zip file you mentioned and it did not help.

Read all of page one and see if any of that helps.
There's been 25 dl's, and only 2 of you having issues so far. Even if only half are installed it's got to be something with your phones causing the issues.
Install without ext sd card.
Flash the zv4 rpm, tz partitions in post #2.
Make sure to give it a couple minutes at the LG logo. It's kinda slow on first boot sometimes.
Clean install. So wipe /system, /cache, /dalvic, and /DATA.

Tried that this morning. No go. Still gets stuck at the LG animated logo.
Just wanted to report that i flashed the Fulmrics rom this morning, it flashed but no sim, no data. So i flashed this & everything went fine, booted right up, setting it up, almost done & haven't even had a fc. Wow though, i haven't seen this much bloat for years lol. I know its totally stock, but. Hey, question, now that I've flashed this the modem will stick correct? I mean if i were to flash an aosp rom later I'd have this modem still until i flashed say zvb modem yeah? Thank you for this!

It'll stick and so do the rpm, tz partitions.
But be careful with the international roms. Some of them include modems and other partitions. Easily fixed with a flash though.
Ok thanks for the info. I know this is $hitty of me to ask here, but what the heck I'll give it a go, I flashed your zvb last week & tried getting xposed to work & could not get it. I think maybe installed wrong one, can someone direct me to the exact one needed, that would be much appreciated
Edit - I saw somewhere that the roms need to be deodexed, maybe thats why not workinh

So you got this ROM to boot? @engine95 I just did a full ZV4 tot restore to stock/re-root and this still sticks for me at the LG animated logo. I think I have ruled out it is not my configuration, rolling back to ZVB works just fine.
**Update for you - So I clean flashed ZVB after the ZVC failed after TOT/root. After ZVB settled in, I left it as is with no changes and dirty flashed ZVC over it, it is now doing the "Android is upgrading" Hope this helps, if you need anything from me let me know.
I'm on stock rooted ZVB. Is it possible to dirty flash this? Just don't really feel like having to reinstall everything. I bought my phone with 4.4.2 and OTA'd to ZVB then rooted
Can anybody tell me what are the changes in UI? Is it worth updating

Check out screen below. So far I've noticed they changed the Wi-Fi icon and the LTE (Spark) Icon. The LTE icon now looks like AOSP and doesn't take up half your bar.
