New TWRP 2.5 Breaks Rom flashing - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

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
Just an fyi to everyone out there.

I stopped flashing new twrp until I know its safe now..

I should do the same. Going back to 2.3.3

Dumb question, never went back to an older version, just flash in fastboot and good to go? And why does everyone seem to goto 2.3.3?

It's just the last one that just... Well, works. And yes. Find a download for 2.3.3 and do it. Put it on your computer and fastboot flash in adb

I've had no issues with 2.5 been flashing cm10.1 and mean back and forth the past few days
Sent from magical jelly bean.

SuperJelly flashes fine on 2.5 also.

Yeah I had a lot of issues trying to flash any aosp rom today after flashing 2.5, but even after downgrading to 2.3.1 I kept getting status 7 error... Not sure if the new version borked some partition or whatever, I've posted my recovery logs in the twrp thread and I hope somebody can help me to satisfy my flashing need, I really want to try carbon rom or cm 10.1 again...

i had a restore on 2.5 and one thing i noticed is if you check internalSD when you restore it fails the restore. if you just have the data/system/boot/cache your fine and it loads up fine.

Agreed. Amon Ra recovery was always stable and wiped well . The biggest problem I remember about Ra recovery was screen tearing.

You guys are lucky. I can only get the sense 5 to flash. And restore my backup of it. Everything else will start flashing then fails around halfway. Saying there is an error in the updater-binary
Sent from my EVO using Xparent Purple Tapatalk 2

Works great for me. Haven't had a single error with anything.
Try downgrading to 2.4.4.0 and then back to 2.5

I have the same issue, been trying to flash aosp roms after upgraded twrp and restored my viper nandroid coming from sense 5, for som reason everything fails with status error 7 in twrp, downgraded to 2.3.1 then 2.4.4 and back to 2.5 and downloaded 5 different roms with the same exact result, I don't know what was the trouble maker twrp or sense 5, I've posted recovery logs in the twrp thread but nobody look at those... Very frustrating...

Reflashed recovery and all is well.

The thing that sucks is newer people root and then d/l ROM Manager and as soon as they open it it says "hey flash this new broke a$$ recovery." So they do it cuz newer is better right?? Then we get 43 threads titled my ROM won't flash/backup won't restore/ yadda yadda yadda.

Have you tried turning the phone off then holding volume down + power untill the bootloader screen appears and then manually selecting recovery? ROM Manager tends to have issues.

reinstall rom manager and flash one ot the older cwm like the 4.0.1.5 not the 5.x.x.x
Try reflashing Clockwork recovery by following the instructions in [url="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179386]this[/url] thread. It sounds like your recovery got screwed up or wiped out somehow. Use version 5.0.2.1. I think the version 5 issues are fixed in that one. If you still have issues try using one of the version 4.x ones.
Sent from my HTC Thunderbolt
Thanks guys I did it and got my phone and just FYI version five don't work on my tb so I will stay away from ROM manager!!!!! I still couldn't do a back up in recovery cuz it says error on restoring boot image ,once!again o beloved my SD card corrupt

My mistake then... I could have sworn someone said you needed s-off for this to work. I guess not if you're using it.
Yea its really nice! S-off would help to be able to have different kernels as I am limited to the same kernel on both as I can't change those in recovery, and I am very jealous of your s-off rezound!

Ya, I was wondering how that was going to work. To bad they couldn't incorporate con's flash recovery helper into it and then flash the nandroid backup.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
damn. we're pretty much SOL to switch between kernels then until S-OFF is achieved fully
not looking too good. I tried the lite version for now. original rom is CR dev edition and tried installing bamf on slot one since kernels have to be exact. it was nearly completed until the boot.img part of the install failed and stopped the entire install

Stuck at HTC boot screen with Santod's ICS Rom

Hello everybody. I'm trying to flash the Santod's version of ICS OTA Rom and Im stuck at the HTC boot up white screen I tried the odex version (556.4MB) and the debloat version (376.8MB) and with none of them have any luck I cant get passed beyond the bootup screen. I'm using 4EXT recovery to flash the Roms I also updated the Radios with the OTA ICS radios. Does anybody is facing same problem?
He posted a file to flash if you was caught in a boot loop. Might want to head over to that thread.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
Correct, I posted a flashable zip to apply to either Odex rom.
I am in the process of uploading complete Odex roms, so no patch file is needed.
Thanks I will try that
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda app-developers app
After the rocky start with the boot loops finally Installed the santod's trimmed version with the fixed kernell after that WiFi camera mms etc was working as supposed to be but everything on the phone suddenly come to a crawl status it was super slow even loading Google on the stock browser and reluctantly I had to go back to GB.
I like the ROM very much but the speed was the deal breaker. Is there any way to speed things up?
