I am Using HTC EVO 4G LTE in india under reliance india network.
I am using it for almost 2 months without any issues,
Last week i installed the Jelly bean OTA, from them onwards the device keeps on restarting every 5 min.
Its boots perfectly works stably for 5 min and then it re-starts.
I dont know what to do? .. Will downgrading to ICS will fix this problem.?
If so whats the best method to downgrade .. I am noob when it comes to this device. Please guide me.
I checked the forum but its with too many posts and got confused on it.
Honestly the first thing I would retry is a factory reset(if your not already s off) just make sure to backup any data you want saved onto your pc first. Perhaps even a phone call to your carrier as well that way they can document the issue so if you need a replacement later the paper trail will help.

Cant get a replacement as i am in india right now, this is a sprint phone, i programmed it for indian carrier and using it.
I tried the factory reset already but it didnt help at all.
Can you tell me as how to downgrade to ICS 4.0.4 version, that was very stable in my mobile.
Can you guide me to a proper post that will help me do it.?

There is probably ten thousand more people on here that can give you a more qualified answer than what I'm about to but I can tell you right now your gonna have to do the leg work and work your search bars...But I have recently been dealing with downgrading these EvoLTE's lately so I can at least help you narrow it down(a little).
Since you upgraded to JellyBean, I think the most important thing you will need to know is whether it updated you from the 2.13 firmware to the 3.16 firmware and whether your touch panel img was updated or not. If you were updated to 3.16 with the new touch panel, your basically going to have a heck of a hard time trying to downgrade to ICS...You'll have to get s-off and use a linux/ubunta live cd to downgrade it back to 2.13 so that you can then load a ICS rom. (BTW, if your in this boat, good luck because until they come up with a easier way to downgrade(if they ever do) it seems to be no joke, I wouldn't even attempt it, but I'm pretty much a noob to this stuff)
If your still, hopefully, on 2.13 , then all you should have to do is unlock your bootloader, and add the ICS rom to your sd card and flash a TWRP custom recovery then flash/install the rom through the bootloaders recovery(TWRP recovery). I would recommend the MeanRom ICS rom, it's easy to find and a great ICS rom that is basically stock. That or hunt down a stock 4.0.4 rom. Good luck.

Most likely not. When the EVO got the official update to software version 3.16, the firmware that came with that update included an update to the touch panel. If you have the updated touch panel you can only use ROM's that are software version 3.16. Using anything else will render the touch panel inoperable. Your best bet, as stated above, is to get S-off. Once you do this you can install the previous touch panel driver and flash an ICS ROM. You can leave everything else as-is. There is no need to downgrade your firmware.

Thanks for the thoughts. I understand now that i am in the latest firmware now. So whats the best method to get S-OFF. ? ..
Once S-offed how to install the touch drivers and a ICS rom, if you can guide me to a procedure or some installation link it will be very helpful.

Ok so i have been out of the ROM loop for a bit, so i figured i would ask questions before trying to do so. I am wanting to run the newest ROMs running the leaked ICS VM base, but everywhere i see, it says to upgrade your firmware? I've looked all over the place and have yet to see the upgradeable firmware i need to do so! Can anyone please clarify this for me or at least point me in the right direction.
You don't need to upgrade anything. I'm on the original firmware and the only thing that was working,but has since stopped was the camera. I also haven't updated the rom since it was released, so that could be the problem. I did run into a problem when I first installed it. Using rm -rf instead of formatting the partitions did not work. It kept boot looping, but changing it back to format worked.

well see my issue now is that i flashed it just fine like i would any other ROM (no FW upgrade) but it sits on the splash screen. this now happens with ALL ICS ROMs. at first they randomly rebooted but now the only ones that work on it are older ROMS (GB, FROYO) but ICS will not boot. i guess i might have to wait until the offical release hits for us

DO NOT FLASH THE VIRGIN MOBILE FIRMWARE / VIRUS!!!!!!!!
As for the bootlooping, if you are hboot 1.5 s-on, then ICS does that unless you use Chad's kernel (which breaks USB and 3d camera). I recommend you get s-off by downgrading to hboot 1.4 or use the wire trick. See my signature or the stickes in the cdma development forum (assuming you are CDMA) for more information.
deadlocked007 said:
Calm down bud. There is no virus but he is correct. Do not update if you have hboot 1.5 if you are s off then fire ahead using the update package from freeza. Then use the mod to convert it to sprint. After that go be flash happy.

I'm not the one who called it a virus - many of the devs who worked tirelessly trying to rid our phones of that firmware coined that one. From what I've read throughout the forums, I would highly recommend against flashing that, even using the mod to convert it to Sprint. Every ICS ROM I have tried (CDMA) has ran fine using Freeza's all in one version 2.17.

Could be only s-on people had issues removing it, but I personally would not risk it. The ics roms all work fine without it if you are s-off. Deadlocked I am genuinely asking (seriously not trying to be argumentative): what benefit you see from using it since afaik, there is none.

Been reading over at Mik of a lot of EVO LTE getting bricked trying to go back to old saved back up any one here and if so what was the steps ?
I know more than one of us bricked trying to flash the older firmware after flashing the new firmware.
I should have made a thread dedicated to the issue rather than just a post in the update thread....could have saved a lot of eVos

How do I avoid brick?
Stay off new firmware? I am currently rooted via zedomax and s-off via lazy panda.
I downloaded the latest radio and PRI from Capt. Throwback but haven't flashed them yet.

I'm planning to hold off an updating to the latest firmware until I flash a ROM that's based on the latest software version. If you're running a ROM with an older base, using the latest firmware could cause compatibility issues, and since downgrading could brick the phone, you'd be stuck. Unless you're experiencing connection problems, I don't think there's much reason to risk it.
Sent from my EVO LTE
Yup. Bricked here. Tried to reflash the last firmware because I had no service ay all after flashing the latest. I actually had service on aosp toms but nothing on sense. I really didn't think I was taking much of a risk being s-off
Edit. Just browsed the forum, brick threads all over the place. Most of these ppl are able to access bootloader/recovery. NOT BRICKED.

If you installed the latest OTA, it's not a good idea to flash to an older version so you can root. You're likely to brick the phone.
Sucks, cause I wanted to flash CM10 once the camera was fixed, but looks like I gotta wait til a workaround is invented.

I just got s-off through lazy panda yesterday and installed twrp, now I wanna install synergy rom but it is based off the newest ota base, while I of course have the 1.13.651.1 base. Can i still install this rom and will it function as it should? Do I need to find some modified RUU that will give me the latest OTA without losing s-off?

So just to be clear, ROM's never include firmware (except for maybe official OTA updates)?
According to this, "a phone’s firmware is basically its operating system." So do ROMs depend on a certain "operating system" to function properly? If I have a ROM that was built on an older firmware, does that mean it may not function properly with the newer one? But this won't brick a phone, just maybe make the ROM not function (but you can still flash a different one)?

Hello, my apologies if this problem has arisen in the past. however, after rigorously browsing the forums, I came up short.
When I install/ flash the jellybam rom or cm10.1 rom, the screen stops working except for in bootloader and twrp recovery. I heard you have to downgrade the touch panel, how do i do that?
I have;
-HBOOT 2.09
- build 3.19 and I belive everything else is up to date on the latest software.
I _think_ you need to update the touch panel drivers/firmware also, located here: http://themikmik.com/showthread.php...LE-Jewel-Radio-Collection&p=220556&viewfull=1
tp_SYN3202.img is the latest, but it says it will break touch screen in recovery and on non-stock roms if done incorrectly.
I would ask this question in captain_throwback's latest firmware thread before you install tp_SYN3202.img
I'm only pointing you in the right direction, I have NO experience with updating the touch panel .img - please ask someone who has dealt with this before you do ANYTHING (I just dont want you to break your evo!)

The newest touch panel firmware doesn't work with AOSP, AOKP, 3.15 based ROMs (or lower), or older recoveries..You need to revert to the old TP firmware before flashing any ROM not based on 3.16.

As far as I know all the files are located in Capt Throwback's firmware thread. You probably need S-Off to flash them though. The new 3.16 OTA updated the touchscreen's firmware. This new update is only good with the latest TWRP and 3.16 based roms..so to flash anything on the old base or AOSP you need the old touchscreen firmware. Hope that clears it up a little.

I seem to have the same problem.
I'm running the viper rom on my evo 4g. Was going to upgrade to the latest version and wanted to update firmware first.
I grabbed the latest twrp (4.2.1) installed that, rebooted.
I then grabbed the latest firmware from themikmik, installed that and rebooted.
And i then grabbed the tp_syn3202 update and installed that and rebooted
And now my touch screen does not respond to any touch input. I don't know what to do at this point since they only thing i can do is either force the phone to reboot, or go into hboot by holding down the volume down and camera keys. And all that does is ask me if i want to reinstall the tp update.
I don't know how to get into twrp to even try and install the latest rom assuming that would fix the issue.

You have to downgrade your touch panel driver to the 3.15 version. Check the thread below and go to the downloads link in the first post. The touch panel driver is installed the same way you upgrade firmware, through the bootloader.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704612
On the page with the downloads, the touch panel zip is in the second post and is labeled " tp_SYN3202.img zip". If you've forgotten how to do a firmware update, hit the top link in my sig and look for the section on firmware updates.
Seriously though, there are plenty of newer, up-to-date ROM's out there. Why would you bother with this one?

It's been almost a year since the Evo LTE. I have dealt without the bluetooth. I don't really use it but it would be nice when i'm the car. If 4.3 fixes it it would be great if not i'm just gonna wait and see what new phone is out. HTC needs to stop this bull**** and trying to be like crapple, no removable battery and no sd-card bullshiet. I hope Sprint gets a Sony phone.
It's not always HTC's fault, some people have to take responsibility for hacking their phone and read more and not run and get a replacement at the first sign of trouble. I'm not saying it isn't a hardware problem, but some people don't know anything about knowing to flash radios, correct order of steps to take, correct way to install a rom or kernel and try to just forge their own path which isn't goin to work.
I'm posting cause Ink in the viper thread everyone noticed u were misinformed and in case u don't check back in there for some reason. Update ur radios, and do it in the correct order. It was a big deal when the update came out.

Yes...... But it needs to be done correct. I'm not totally sure but I think u have to update firmware in order. Meaning if u didn't do the firmware update before the newest than u need to do that first. Go into settings> about software information> more. Look at ur baseband version and than start by updating to the firmware after that one. Also u need to be s-off, and these are not flashed in recovery. U put the zip on the root of the sd card and bootup into the bootloader.
If u got this phone on its launch and rooted and s-off'd a while ago but never did a firmware update like this or took an OTA, you might be on the this phones first firmware.
Then there is the deal with the touch panel part of it. (TP img) only the newest firmware presented a problem. U must be on a newer twrp and must be on a rom that came from the lady update or your touches won't be detected. Do everything correct and the screen becomes more responsive. Check out that thread and orders for everything.

But remember to make sure ur on the firmware from before, before flashing the newest. If this newest firmware still doesn't fix the problem, than its probably a hardware issue.

Hey Guys,
I have an unbranded HTC Amaze(Asian Version), s-on and rooted, recently I tried to flash Cyanogenmod 10 on it using 4ext, it flashed fine, but after starting, it kept hanging and rebooting, so I researched a bit and found out that my firmware is still the old gingerbread one, and to upgrade it I would have to turn s-off first.
However, I found a stock T-mobile Gingerbread ROM ,and flashed it its working fine now, and the it also allows me to update the system to ICS officially using the update available.
But my question is that if I update my android officially using the ICS update available, would it update my kernel as well? So I may be able to flash custom ICS roms on it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated thnx
Yes, it'll upgrade the software, kernel, and radio. But it's not recommended to do.
There's a link to the guide to upgrade the Asian amaze in the OP of the viper thread.
Follow the guide and read it thoroughly first.
Afaik you should use the guide and it'll then you'll be good!

Alright but as Im not using the stock RUU anymore, but the T-mobile one, so would I be able to turn S-off ? because I read that stock RUU is a must if u want to go s-off?
