No back camera.....please help. - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

My sisters evo has been rooted from the beginning however it was s-on. I had her on cm10 for awhile but decided to put her back on sense because of some small issues she was having.
She was on sense for a month or so with no problems and wanted to go back to cm10. So I flashed it, and flashed the kernel via flash GUI without problems.....or so I thought. All of the sudden the back camera stopped working. The front camera pops up but if you attempt to switch it says that I do not have a back camera.
So....I went back to sense, same thing. Back to cm, same thing. Then I thought I would ruu back to stock, no go. I achieved s-off and have tried all sorts of ROMs with no luck.
Any help would be appreciated. The camera was the main reason she got this phone. That and the fact I told her to!
Thanks in advance

She is on cmx 11/20 build with latest komodo kernel

You installed an updated ROM with incompatible kernel. Just flash a ROM with the right kernel and her phone will be fine.

Like I said in my first post, I've tried every combo available. Stock sense, cmx, cm + komodo. No camera. Whatever combo she has right now is compatible, I don't have the phone in front of me right now though

Radio wont turn on!?! HELPPPP!!

ok so I was running viper 4g 1.0.0.0 and everything was working fine. I then decided to flash cm10, the 8.20.2012 build, and I ran that for a few hours, everything worked great and I loved how fast the Rom was. Long story short I was browsing the web this morning and suddenly my radio shuts off, I wait a moment and then it turns back on, then shuts off and turns on intermittently. I get annoyed after 20-30mins of this so I restore my backed up viper Rom. Well now the radio on this isn't working either....someone help me please!! I also know sprint is doing work on towers and I live in the san antonio area, but I know its not them cause I'm posting this from my girlfriends EVO 3d! HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!

I have been on these radios since before the roms I was using. But I reflashed them hoping it would do the trick, and it didn't. Still not working.

Forgive me if I am wrong but it doesn't work that way when going to cm10 or back
I thought it was a mandatory deal to flash the cm10 boot IMG prior to flashing cm10 and flashing sense Rome boot IMG prior to going back to a sense Rom
Like I said...highly possible I am wrong but I recall reading that

My 3g has been cutting out alot too. Sometimes I have to go to settings and turn off the radio and turn it back on. I'm not on cm10. Could be network rather than phone.

Stuck on CM10 Boot animation...

Hi I have the EVO V 4g, I rooted it, flashed TWRP 2.2 and when I flash CM9 or CM10 it gets installed and then when it boots I get stuck on the loading screen animation. It keeps spinning and nothing happens.
I can flash my stock rom without any trouble but for some reason I can't get anything else to work.
What gives?!
BTW I tried using Goo Manager too and I'm having the same problem.
Thank you for your time!
You need s-off to flash the kernel, or flash it with fastboot.
sudo passwd root

What hboot are you on?

my hboot is the one that comes with the evo v. 1.4 or 1.5 don't remember.

Well you need to be S-OFF. Also for Evo V 4G I think you need to be on 1.04 Hboot http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703070 see the "HTC EVO V users" section.
Man this is getting out of hand. So many things to do. I'm kinda scared to s off and downgrade. I thought you only needed to root... HTC...

I have the same phone as you.
A hour after I bought the phone, I was s-off, flashing all sorts of hboots, flashing different firmware, installing different kernels, flashing roms... You are not stuck with what you have lol.
I ran jb for a couple days. No camera was a deal breaker.
sudo passwd root
And then there's that there's not even a decent jelly bean Rom. Oh well I guess I'll just wait a little bit. No camera or no wifi or no sound. Another thing is that I've never done this before this is the first time I've rooted a phone and I am the kind of scared to proceed. Linux is a bit over my head and to be honest all this flashing ROM s fast booting was a bit overwhelming... And to think that in order to downgrade your hboot you have to technically brick your phone.
Not to mention I saw this guy on YouTube showing how he was running cm nine with anthrax kernel and how it was so great and fast made me want to do that too. He said it took him over a month to do all that...
I'll stop...

You could get everything done within a few hours... if you're on 1.40 or 1.50 you don't have to brick to downgrade. Just S-OFF and then flash the older hboot.
CM9 is pretty stable and has everything working except 3D. CM10 is pretty stable, just doesn't have camera among other bugs.
I'm on hboot 1.57. Do I have to brick that or is it the same as 1.50?

I said hardest part was I'm getting that wire thing for the S OFF. And finishing up with those commands that was really confusing. I'm the only thing I couldnt manage to do is to get my PRL update which is a bummer but what can you do.
BTW I'm running Gangnam CM 10. The ROM is amazing. Everything works except for the camera but I'm sure they'll add that pretty soon. Too bad I can't post in those forums heh.

If you're s-on, flash the kernel of the rom via fastboot and you'll be fine.
Put the boot.img from the rom.zip in your adb folder.
type in cmd (when phone is in fastboot usb (bootloader > fastboot)):
fastboot flash boot boot.img
exg. fastboot flash boot c:\Users\yourname\boot.img
(my adb folder is in my user directory)
I already spent my whole Friday night doing the s-off. Its done lol. Thanks tho

Problem running any custom kernels, rooted etc.

Title pretty much says it but just wondering if anyone has not been able to run custom kernels. It started with my attempt with Komodo etc., but I always get some form of screen flashes or massive FCs. Im am rooted with original 1.12 hboot. I have been able to successully load and run ROMs from Viper to AOKP, even CM10.1 but never able to run a custom kernel. I have wiped clean, reset and still no go. I am using the 2.2.1 TWRP so wondering if the newest TWRP would fix that ability? I know some of the EVO LTEs just wont run with a custom kernel but figured I would try.
Thanks in advance for any input.

Are you S-Off or S-On. I would flash the latest recovery just to be safe.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I've had the same issue with Komodo. I'm S-OFF 1.19. I tried on the latest twrp, 2.3.3, and even on a tip re-flashed 2.3.1
I was able to boot after flashing with 2.3.1, sometimes...but it really wasn't stable enough to even try to use. Constant reboots, FC's, bootloops, etc
The device I'm having this issue on is an insurance replacement from asurion, the 4th one to be exact. i never had this issue on any of the previous devices...my first was new via preorder, that was stolen, and the first 2 refurbs were returned due to other hardware defects, although at least they could run a custom f***ing kernel.
as far as I've been able to tell nobody has found the issue that makes some devices not take to a custom kernel.

Thanks for the replies. I am S-OFF, current baseband etc. I haven't tried the voltage mod, but will look into that and come back for questions if necessary. If you have any tips on the voltage mods etc, feel free to pass them on. I have tried to use Goo Manager to download the newest TWRP but kept getting errors but haven't tried today. Will try to get the most recent on and look at voltage mods. Its not a huge deal, I get great battery life and its fast enough but I wanted to at least see if there was something specific that I have been missing to run the kernels. Thanks for all the replies!
The Komodo kernel worked only after updating TWRP to newest and I also had to use the voltage mod as neither would load without it. Great advice and for first time I am running custom kernel on top of PACMAN ROM. I tried capped at 1.7 then 2.1 both work but the 2.1 started to indicate some weird results within minutes of loading. I backed down to 1.9/384 and looks to be the sweet spot. Thanks again!

New TWRP 2.5 Breaks Rom flashing

As title states. The update yet again breaks tom flashing and causes it to fail. It's still in the updater binary as well. Only Rom that flashes now is the Sense 5 port

That ROMs been around for a while, so an old recovery should work fine. The ROM also boots any hboot

I updated 4EXT, and I still am getting stuck on boot. I have wiped everything and tried installing multiple times. If it works on any HBOOT then I don't know what my problem is. Last I had on it was PAC Rom 4.3.
I'll keep messing around and try to get it to work. I'm not new to flashing roms by any means, but HTC devices are always so finicky.
You could try flashing boot.img through fastboot.
