Well first you posted in the wrong section.
2nd s-on? That is important to know. If you are on twrp 2.4.1 and also the latest firmware then you can only flash roms on the newest 3.16 software. I think mean bean is on that base already.

First: wrong section.
But to answer your question, sounds like you flashed the 3.16 tp.img, and you're running twrp 2.4.1.0 and the Rom you tried using are not 3.16. The nand is probably not 3.16

Yup, either fflash a 3.16 based Rom, or, better yet, flash the 3.15 touch panel image. Its in the firmware section in the meanbean thread
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

but why would my touch panel software be 3.16 when i was flashing a rom based on 3.15? i was flashing operation jelly bean rsl1.
how can i flash that 3.15 tp firmware if im s-on?

Your touch panel version doesn't change no matter what version Rom you flahs

Your nandroid isn't working cause of the new touch driver. To restore you gotta s-off

Which hboot did you flash? Have you flashed the latest (2.89.651.2) firmware? Did you use 4EXT recovery and "format all partitions except SD card"?

Ramjet, I flashed hboot 1.50 and I'm using 4 ext recovery. Now about the firmware, do I need to flash the latest? The crazy thing is, I had lens jb rom and working great. But the Google voice was getting on my nerves. So I thought it was the rom. I flashed back to SOS M thinking I can get rid of goggle voice and still there. Well long story short, I disable Google voice and now when I try to flash back lens jb rom, it stays on boot loop.

It would be a good idea to update to the current firmware (from the 2.89.651.2 build) if you haven't already, but I doubt that's your problem. Make sure to do a "format all partitions except SD card" in 4EXT right before flashing the JB ROM. Do not do a superwipe script as the latest AOSP ROM's don't seem to like that.

I went s-on since day one after I got bored of stock and have never had any problems Tbh, I almost pity all the poor s-off folks who were too terrified to take the ota All it takes is a couple extra steps to flash anything and its been worth it so far. I preordered so I had plenty of chances to S-Off early on but I don't regret it at all.

Now s-on is not bad at all right? The only con is having to flash boot.img through fast boot when flashing a rom?

Another con is you can't update your firmware unless you relock and take the OTA or hope a recovery flashable zip comes along
So if your hboot was s-off, how is it any different than s-on? You still have to run the RUU to go back to stock then get the OTA right? Or are you talking about some other OTA?

There are Firmware zips available right now for 3.15 that can be flashed in the bootloader but you must be S-OFF to flash them.Just flash and everything is updated except hboot,kernel,and stock recovery.
Flashing those firmwares is the same as taking the OTA except for what I mentioned above

Ugh - took the OTA on an HTCdev unlocked boot loader and now it seems hboot 2.09 locks down the systems (can't update supersu binary, they locked down /system?). Now on viperboy stock rooted rom...
Hopefully they come out with an s-off technique for 2.09, need to be able to "hide" supersu/root binaries on my device...
Any news on s-off for hboot 2.09?
Hi, I'm am a noob, I got the JB update, then decided to root my phone. I am unlocked and rooted. I would like to turn s-off but my hboot is 2.09.
I am trying to flash mean bean and every time it gets to around 25%, my phone reboots. I am using twrp to try flashing it.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Or what I need to do?
Thanks again.

Couple issues

Hey people. I'm having a hard time flashing roms on my 4GLTE. Ill wipe, factory reset and wipe the cache but when I install the Rom it doesn't do anything. I've only been able to flash 2 roms the stock with goodies rom and the viper rom. And ideas on what's going on or help? Thanks
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Follow the tutorials under General and start with posting details such as current specs, SON, SOFF, Hboot etc., then which ROMs you have tried and steps you have done to attempt installing them.
The more details you give the more XDA can help.
Please give us some more information. Are you s-off? Are you on the most recent firmware? Have you updated your touch panel driver? What do you mean by "nothing happens"? Are you getting boot loops or is the phone not booting at all or is the touch panel unresponsive?

Sorry I'm on S-On I do have the latest hboot. I've pretty much tried every updated Rom in the forum. It will either 1, stay on the HTC screen, 2 it will boot loop or 3 ill just have a black screen where ill have to restart back into recovery and go back to my previous backup. I have the Viper Rom right now. I can try to attach a screen shot of the roms I've downloaded and all of them gave me 1 of those 3 problems except viper and the stock with goodies Rom

Being that you are s-on you have to flash the kernel/boot.img first use flash image gui from the playstore or fastboot flash the kernel.
I suggest getting s-off it will save you so many headaches

Some ROMs (like Viper and MeanBean) include a kernel installer for S-on. For those that don't you'll need to follow bigdaddy's advice above.

You can use an app called Flash Image GUI from the Play Store to flash the kernel, assuming you can get your phone to boot into your current ROM. What specific problem are you having flashing the kernel with fastboot?
Your other solution is to get S-off, which is preferable

You NEED to S-OFF.
Please listen to delakit. As long as you have the 3.16 TP you will ONLY be able to use 3.16 based sense ROMs. NO OTHERS. You HAVE to downgrade your touch panel, which can only be done if S-off.
(Side note, this is what makes me not wanna wait for HTC One price to drop. You end up with updated FW/SW that is always more difficult to S-off, if supported AT ALL).

[Q] HELP! HTC evo 4g lte won't boot

So I recently rooted my phone and I tried to install the CM 10.1 mod. I did everything correctly except I didn't backup my original rom. So now the custom rom won't boot up because it gets stuck at the HTC startup screen and stays there. I went back into the twrp and tried to re-install the custom rom and again it didn't work. Now I went back and all my files are gone including the custom rom! So basically I think that the phone is booting because there is nothing on there. I tried to change the recovery image back to the original htc rom according to htcevohacks.com and i tried doing a factory reset but it didn't work. is it possible to fix this if so how? Thanks.

If you can get into twrp you can mount usb storage and put the Rom zip back on and the reason it won't boot is because you are s-on you need to fastboot flash the boot.img first

ok so as you guys said I can put the rom back on and install it and I have tried it. I got the initial set up of the new rom but the touchscreen doesn't work. I tried 2 other roms too and the touchscreen doesn't work on all of them. Do i just have to keep trying out roms? If you guys could post any roms that you have tried before that'd be great. I just want my phone to run something right now.
Try running a ROM based on the 3.16 OTA such as ViperROM or MeanBean. What version of TWRP are you on?
Also note if you use either of the ROM's listed above, they have S-on kernel installers. Just follow the installation instructions.

Give it a shot. The 3.16 OTA included a touch panel driver update. If you have the updated driver you can only run 3.16 base ROM's and also must use TWRP 2.4+, otherwise, your touch panel won't work. If you gain S-off you can downgrade the driver and run whatever ROM you want.
Once S-off you don't have to fool with flashing the kernel separately, either

So according to the MeanBean developer the kernel installer is built in, so all i have to do is flash the .zip file and it will take care of everything correct?

I think, if I recall correctly, you have to flash the ROM zip twice. After you flash the first time, you will be prompted to flash it again.
