What Hboot are you on, and what kind of problems are you having?
The advice is free....the bandwidth, not so much

My nav/maps is fc all the time and by battery life is crap with gps wifi and data off and the screen brightness on the most minimal setting.. I had problems in 1.12 with suber su crashing so i updated to whatever is on viperboys page and now i get nav fc :/

I'm running a custom stock tweaked jb sense Rom on hboot 1.19 and radio 0809....not one issue whatsoever personally....didn't update to latest radio or hboot for personal reasons and everything working perfectly....the nav crashing issue is a hit or miss issue per device...some have it some don't, hasn't been figured out....I personally fixed the issue by going through several refurb replacements til it worked...seems to be a manufacturing batch pattern...hope that helps...
Ps: when you say you used viperboys Rom, are you talking about the stock odex zip file? If so, you might still be on older hboot...that zip doesn't change radio or hboot versions....just the Rom/system file itself...b

You need to s-off, the reason, hboot 2.09 prevents you from writing on certain partitions, hence your problems.

Hmm maybe A data, issue, network or just the Rom itself. Try redownloading check the md5s make sure they match. Also check mms settings.

you may get an error 16 code from sprint make a phone call after s-on and wait theyll redirect you to a rep. just say you accepted the OTA update or an update but forgot to put on wifi and you cant make calls now. it's what I did after s-on. its a little white lie but what sprint doesn't know wont hurt em.

[Q]hboot 1.12 need s-off very confused..

hello all I'm kinda stuck... I have hboot 1.12 I would like to gain S-off but I cannot figure out what i need to do. I've been to the unlimited IO site it says it supports hboot 1.12/1.15/1.19 but there's an asterisk further down the page that states (If you have HBOOT 1.12 you must use the DirtyRacun process to upgrade your RUU to gain S-OFF.) what does this mean? and even more confusing is once you get down to step 7 on this page you only have two hboots to choose from. can anybody help?
Thanks in advance.
Sounds like you need to upgrade your hboot to 1.15 r 1.19 and then use dirty racoon. I'm pretty sure lazy panda is no longer available
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
I think you have to run one of the newer RUUs, then you can run the racoon.

How do I do this?
how do I get from hboot 1.12 to hboot 1.15?
I'm no pro, but I downloaded the RUU and renamed it to PJ75IMG and put it on my sdcard, rebooted into bootloader and hit yes when prompted to update.

if u have hboot 1.12 then u run lazy panda.. thats will give u s-off.. dirty racun is for the new hboots.. run lazy panda u will be golden:good:

Upgrade to 1.15 and run dirty racoon
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
that's basically what I'm attempting to find out.. how to upgrade to 1.15
The dirty racoon process involves relocking and running a RUU. This will prepare your phone for the s-off process. AFAIK just follow the directions and you'll be all set or if you wanna double check ask someone in that thread
I think your good to follow the steps

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!

I don't know if it makes any difference but I flash the voltage zip before and after flashing the kernel. Also make sure your downloading the s-on if that's what you need

Different dialer

I'm getting great battery life with moderate use as long as I am not talking on my phone but as soon as I am it decreases 3 times as fast. I can get over 3 days with moderate use over the weekend but once the work week starts I only get about 26 hours on a charge. I have an under clocking profile set up to nock the phone down to minimum when on a call. Just wondering if a different dialer would save battery or anything else I'm not thinking of. Thanks for any advice.
Sent from my SCH-I815 using XDA Premium HD app
Don't think the dialer will make much difference. What radio are you on? The latest is best on battery. My opinion anyway.
I've never messed with radios before. Is that about all I can do for battery life while calling and are the stock radios that bad on battery life. Also am I able to flash radios while being s-on? Appreciate the help

You have to be s off to flash the radios alone.. But you can achieve the same thing by flashing an RUU via ph98img in bootloader. That will also update your hboot and firmware etc..
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
Loading a new ruu with an updated hboot won't mess with my ROM kernel our recovery will it? And do I just put it in the zip load hboot and let it update? And to get the most recent radios do I just look for the most update ruu? And I've heard of global ruu and other types, is there a certain one I need to look for? Sorry for all the questions never went into this before and want to make sure I'm doing it right. Thanks again

Ok finally had some downtime from driving and did some research and I guess my last question is after I relock the bootloader and flash the zip from the locked bootloader will it erase all the data and if it does cam I unlock the bootloader and just restore the nandroid from cwm?

Please help a noob

So I'm kinda a noob, at least for HTC. I have a VM 3D rooted s off. My question is I have tried to install ZR3D rom, but all i can get is a boot loop. my bootloader says juopunitbear 1.57.5757, is this my issue? I was thinking the loop is due to bootloader. I did run factory wipe, and dalvik/cache, installed using 4EXT. Can someone help please?

Sounds like a bad download. The latest version is 3.0 final episode. I used jbear 1.58 hboot for that rom when I had it and it ran great. For you the 1.57 hboot should work fine. Only problem with sense 4 roms is the low volume. Just an FYI.

If you use viper use r284. The most stable and the volumes are all cranked up loud. It does have a ton of customizations.

Make sure you're on hboot 1.58 of you use that release though. That was before the ROM became hboot agnostic.
