Hello. Right now, I am in the process of installing a custom ROM on an HTC Evo 4G LTE. I unlocked the boot loader, put TWRP on it, copied Paranoid Android on it with Gapps, and installed the zip. The phone is still in s-on mode and is stuck at the Paranoid Android screen. I have no idea what to do. I have to get it fixed ASAP. Please, help.
well for whatever reason paranoid android is not loading .. so ..go back into twrp a press reboot>system.. and you phone should reboot back into your previous rom...or you can press restore and choose the rom listed there.. and follow prompts from there.... that will get you back to square one.. you can figure out why the new rom wont load from there... make sense?... hopefully you DID make a backup of your old rom!!!

Well, I never made a backup of the original stock ROM. I tried everything I could, but then realized I was in S-On mode, and HBOOT is 1.19. Therefore, I think there is no way around it. I just did "locked" the boot loader and ran the RUU. That has gotten it back to stock. Worst part is, I convinced my friend to do this because I had rooted my One S, now, he's never going to want to root again. He didn't back anything up to his computer, just his SD card, which was wiped. Damn. Thanks for the reply.
no prob .. well the the upside is .. you were able to get it back .. and you didn't brick the thing
Like om4 said, all you needed to do was flash the boot image. That is one of the known limitations with your hboot version.

With s-on you may flash any Rom with a custom recovery. Just not (kernel,bootimg,radio) so what you can do is
HTC dev unlock,root stock rom
download flash image gui.apk
download the Rom and gapps
Open flash image gui
Flash the paranoid rom from FIGUI
Reboot into recovery and flash again
Now you should have a working boot image and rom.

Similar issues
Hey all, noob here.
This is as similar to the issue I am having now as I can find. So here's what up as far as brass tacks.
HTC EVO 4G LTE "Jewel"
TWRP loaded and functional
Rooted, (tampered) had SuperUser
Nothing in the internal SD card (explain momentarily)
No OS. Yeah, no.
S-ON due to 3.17.
Lost my Nandroid
Don't know much else cause if I take it out of recovery I have to suffer through a bootloop, but I will get more info once I get an idea of whats happening.
Down and Dirty:
So I have rooted several devices, My old Evo 4G's, a couple SIII and S4's and I thought I could do this in one morning. So I got it rooted, using WinDroids help, but skipped S-Off as 3.17 was too new for the software in the toolkit. Did some reading, read multiple times that S-ON was cool to just a ROM which is what I wanted, So I DL'd the ROM, loaded to internal memory, loaded up TWRP from recovery, ran it.
Failed.That's ok, I have the nandroid, I suffered a boot loop until I learned how to escape, Recovered, and I tried again with a fresh DL. Same. So I nandroided and was looking everything over. Then I butter fingered everything. I factory reset the phone, dumping my nandroid and my OS out the window. No I have a phone with no OS and my only access to it is through USB mount in TWRP. How can I either
A) get it back to stock ROM or
B) install the AOSP ROM I was going for. Any more information required I will be more than obliged to give.
I appreciate everything I get I promise!

This is what I think happened to me, by the way. How would I do a ROM without a Kernel? Just yank the kernel folder out? I doubt it. I used to know but I'll be honest, I have only dabbled recently, it's been a while since I kept up with the science precisely.

i just tried deleting the install-recovery.sh (rather i renamed it, so i could get it back. And still no cwm after restart? Any other ideas? Did i do something wrong there?
ok...so nothing that you guys suggested works...I have no idea how to get CWM to work fully....now i am stuck with the lame motoblur...yay..
Are you guys 1000% sure you're rooted?
1000%, i have super user app, and i run titanium backup. Everything gets granted root just fine that ask for it.
---------- Post added at 12:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 AM ----------
strange thing happened. I deleted Rom Manager application. I redownloaded it. It already detected that i was on latest clockwork recovery 5.0.2.0, but i went ahead and flashed it anyways. I then restarted with volume down. I picked "Android Recovery" and it worked just fine. Booted right into cwm!!!! every subsequent time - it doesn't boot into CWM (it boots into what must be motorola's recovery menu).
Wow! That's so odd! I'm glad you found a way to work it at least once though, even if you have to reinstall Rom Manager every time to work it, hopefully this thread is still on page 1 when the experts wake up!
But that is going to suck if i have to reinstall it everytime to use it. i feel like if I can't get into from startup it would be too risky to put any rom on my phone. If i got into a boot loop or something, it seems like i would be so screwed.
After that file has been removed, reflash CWM and it should work. At least that's what got me going.
That did it. Delete the file then reflashed. Awesome. Thanks Guys!
I'm just a noob, mobileweasel helped the most (too bad i'm limited to 5 thanks a day, it's 1:18am here and i've used them up already )
I haven't even got the phone yet but i'm still trying to learn about it and hopefully, help others along the way too See you around!
Well guys the most i can say on this one is, I had somewhat the same problem my first time around. Except mine said, failed to boot 2 starting rsd mode.
the problem that i was having was that i hadn't unlocked my bootloader, which i found that if you want the most recent rom builds, you need to have an unlocked bootloader. there is a sticky for it in the android development section. still should be first thread. says Pudding.
take a look at that. as i thought i had everything ready to go when i got my atrix. i was wrong but a couple of the atrix guru's got me set straight and working with recovery and roms within ten minutes.
any questions, go ahead and PM me and i will give you what help i can. the atrix was the first device to elude me especially since now instead of tefnars recovery we actually have a full working cwm.

Did you flash back to a nandroid of stock, or how did you flash back to stock.
Also, which recovery are you using?
Do you have access to a computer you can hook your phone up to?
Recov is 1.0.3 twrp
I download the stock kernel from forum post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1197898

When I try to put PG86IMG into root directory of the phone and load it with bootloader... I get to the first white screen with the Blue bar on the right loading all the way... then it scrolls a few green lines of code and goes back to the main menu.

Have you tried downloading a stock ROM and flashing it yet?
If it were me, I would download another ROM on my computer, hook my phone up while it's in recovery and transfer the ROM over and flash.
I'm on Hboot 1.4, so I don't know much about flashing on 1.5. But, it's my understanding that you have to flash the kernel separate from the ROM in bootloader? I'm probably wrong though.

Do you have a link to the kernel you used with instructions? My phones a mess right now. Have Cyanogen 7 rom. with no wifi or 3G. Cant flash any other rom either, they just get stuck in boot up. Hoping this will at least get my wifi up. No market sucks!

Does anybody have the stock recovery.img file? I cannot find it anywhere and I need to restore it.
I've also been looking for this, I think tomorrow I may go to a tmobile store and see if I can pull it from a demo phone. I don't think you need root to do that but I'm not sure o.o if I can do it though I'll put it up here

As far as I know the stock recovery isn't available though, at least not for the tmobile one. I've found it for the ATT and original HTC one but tmobile's isn't available. Idk if lkimmel7 found or still needs it though.
I still am looking for it... I made the horrible mistake of encrypted my phone using the built in encrypt option in android... and because I have CWM recovery on it, I cannot undue the encryption.. (obviously because my recovery partition cannot read the /data or /sdcard with it being encrypted).
From what I know, the only was for me to get my phone back to normal is to flash the stock recovery, then boot up normally, then use the factory format option from the android menu.
Somebody feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

That recovery will not work for a T-Mobile HTC one, I have been trying and trying. Its the same recovery found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2158763 Which also does not work.
I can only assume that it needs to be the carrier specific recovery. The ones above will not actually boot into recovery and if you relock the bootloader it gives a security warning.
Yeah, that recovery doesnt work for me.... and now it's looking like i need to do a full re-flash, but I cannot find all the need .img files..

I'm actually not sure whether this will actually work on my device but I will still try.

Anyways, about to try this and thank you so much for the mirror! The Dropbox link was no longer working.
I am using stock T-Mobile Rom with HTC Sense, rooted and S-Off. I hope it doesn't take S-Off and if it does, well then screw it. I don't really need it anyways.
Thanks again! I will edit afterwards telling if I had success or not. Fingers crossed.
im trying to help a user restore a stock t mobile phone. weve tried the recovery linked inthe regular one and t mobile sections(both images are md5 04541031ee82ab95598b3cfbd019ad9c)
we need someone who is unlocked and rooted,yet not permantly flashed recovery to dump the stock one for us. you can simply boot recovery(fastboot boot recovery.img) and make a nandroid,then extract the recovery image,or within the booted OS you can :
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p34 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p34
then when its finished,
exit
exit
adb pull /sdcard/mmcblk0p34
the image will be in your adb/fastboot folder to upload.
reply,or shoot me a PM if you can be of assistance. again- you must have the STOCK reovery installed,and be using a t mobile usa device.

thanks very much for the info.
sorry about your sd card. i had no idea that would happen or i would have warned you. seems tho lots of things cause the internal sd to be wiped- ive noticed runnign RUUs has this affect also. if this is a fluke i hope they fix it. if its not its a feature i dont care for.
did you try relocking and doing a factory reset? (both of those will wipe your sd ) i think of putting the stock recovery back is to make tampered go away,those things may be needed.
if you dont want the hassle of relocking and factory reset right now,i competely understand. if anyone else tries it please report and thanks again for flashing for us. it did flash back an apparently working,functional stock recovery,correct?

pretty much anyones nandroid is going to be after unlock,not much way around that. if the missing apps and such are a factor,sounds like we may need to find a way to put them back. or a stinkin RUU
im fairly certain that in your case,tampered stayed becasue the phone did not recognize the stock recovery as its own. for all practical purposes,it could have been CW to the phone
but its quite possible that banner will stay regaurdless what we do,short of running a full ruu(wich will put back the missing apps and such)
Thanks for this!
Alright, I have a problem. I unlocked my bootloader, rooted, and had twrp installed. I've flashed back to a stock unrooted T-Mobile .7 ROM. I locked the bootloader just fine.
I cannot update with the latest t-mobile OTA. It boots me back to the bootloader with a Security Warning. I've tried to flash the recovery.img listed in the thread, but it just keeps giving me a signature verify fail.
All I want to do is get this thing back to OTA'ness.

Yeah I've downloaded it at least two times already. 3rd times a charm I guess. I'll give it one more go.
Update: It gets about a 3rd of the way through and just goes right to the Red Triangle. The only ROM I had on here before was ARHD, not sure if its something to do with that or not.

Ok well it worked for me so either your not on stock t mobile rom and kernel or you just are not flashing the recovery right. This toolkit is very nice and may help you out if you have not tried it.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2249074
I just rooted my phone, installed 2 different kernels, my phone's wifi now only 'Error's I factory restored (flash recovery with stock Evo info.)
Honestly I feel really stupid. I can't even flash my TWRP back on. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated. I am fairly new to Rooting and its customizations. Thank you.

Can you access your recovery

It might also help to post what ROM you were running, along with what two kernels you flashed. Certain kernels only work with certain ROM's (AOSP kernels don't work on Sense ROM's, and vice-versa). Take a look at the top link in my sig. At the bottom is a few helpful links. om4 has an excellent "Don't Panic" guide that contains some excellent info and really should be required reading for new users.

I had no access to my TWRP Recovery, I actually fixed that though.
The Kernel is changed and now I have no Data access? I think my ROM is not compatible like suggested. (Sense ROM)

The current situations has changed sadly.
I have no custom ROM just Sense.
The Kernel: Bulletproof-EVO-v1.4.
ROM: Default Sense?
This is my first attempt at really rooting/adding kernels just messing around and doing damage.
Now instead of WiFi I have no Data Service with this Kernel and ROM combo. I will check out your links thank you very much.

Now my phone is stuck in bootloop I even tried to remove TWRP recovery to to StockRecovery...
Just let it die?
Or is there anyway to flash a Kernel via command prompt?
Anyway to fix this?

Hit the top link in my sig. I think you'll find what you're looking for there. Sounds like you may need to reflash your recovery from the bootloader via fastboot. Assuming that works, you need to due a full system wipe from recovery, then flash a ROM.

Do forgive me, I am reading your thread and advice.
I am just running on zero sleep in the past 4 days and trying to fix this all day.
The bootloop is gone now that I have flashed the TWRP recovery Stock recovery and Twrp again.
The stock recovery was still giving me the twrp startup screen (disclaimer at the HTC screen)
I also don't quite get what to do via Hboot 2.09 (what I have)
All the ROM's with the kernels are in a zip that needs to be opened via TWRP well the ones I download...
I have wiped the ceche/delvik etc... fear I wiped the whole thing by accident rendering the device empty.
My android's exe file doesn't seem to be about either.
Android version: 4.1.1
Software: 3.17.650? (The most recent for Evo commercially)
When I do attempt a Stock restore via fastboot flash not exe file I end up getting the red ! next to my phone and the phone doesn't reboot naturally.
Do I need to hunt down ROM's and Kernels that I can flash into the cmd?
I understand with my version I must flash in the using the prompt and have them separate but I am totally new at this I feel really dumb I'm sorry if I am bothering you with redundant questions I am attempting to follow and get the information but I think I am reading so many different threads on it I am suffering from information overload (artist not a programmer lol.)
EDIT:
NOTE:
I AM currently reading your bottom link about Fixing system wipe.

if youre S-OFF then you can just use ViperRUU and then reunlock your device.

S-ON.
I am attempting to download MeanBean after reading Fin's Fix.
Though I don't know if FlashImage GUI will work.
I also have to figure out how to flash .apk files too...
Sorry about the bother... I really am far below Novice at this I should have had someone holding my hand step by step lol.
Okay, so the problem with the Kernel originally was it wasn't compatible?
Then the next one with the service error was I suppose the same thing?
Then when I tried to restore apparently I wiped my phone of all Data resulting in a bootloop and being no one has the exe file for the factory RUU of the latest version for the Evo 4g LTE I had no way of restoring any of the files?
So then I stalked Fin's suggestions eventually lead me to MeanBean. at least it got me up and running... I attempted to back up with TWRP.
Which apparently doesn't work (I have to learn how to backup else where... Lets add it to my list.)
But after I attempted the back up I also attempted the instillation of "Operation Jelly Bean" I love the ROM I love the theme I love the sleekness
Apparently I am missing something with my touch panel software. I wish I could have kept the ROM but couldn't sadly (If you know what I am doing wrong I would love to keep that ROM in the future)
So with another failed ROM I tried to restore... which there was no restore when I went to do so... I was a little frustrated from my constant bricking as is...
I attempted factory restore apparently also wiped everything (Internal sd, external, everything.) I don't know what is up with that do you have any clue if its a glitch or am I just wiping it?
I also do Stock restore that does absolutely nothing for my phone anymore...
I will flash it... and it does nothing... it still runs like TWRP (disclaimer etc) but won't go to the twrp boot screen... this is a bit frustrating.
