[Q] Not able to install Any Roms anymore - HTC EVO 3D

Hi Guys,
I'm not new to flashing roms. I've been flashing since the Evo 4G. Currently with my EVO3D, I've had no issues. I was on an AOSP rom (PACMAN and CM 10.1) and I wanted to try a few sense roms. I've tried CoolRoom and stock with no luck. I was able to install Butterz Sense. But now I have a problem, now I can't install any roms at all.
I have tried clearing cache and factory resets.
I've tried changed the HBOOT, I started with 1.5, I went to 1.4, 1.3, now i'm at 1.04 i believe all with no luck. I end up going into a bootloop with all roms.
My current config:
Hboot 1.5
S-Off
4EXT Recovery Touch RC9
Roms I've tried that failed:
PACMAN
CM 10.1
MIUI
COOLROM
Stock
RUU install
Other things I've tried
HBOOT 1.5, 1.4, 1.3, 1.04
TWRP recovery
Fastboot install boot.img
Only working rom:
Butterz Sense
Any help would be great since this is such a bizarre case.
Thanks!

Try this
Install 4ext recovery touch RC8, wipe data, wipe cache and dalvik, format all partitions except sd card. Repeat all these steps and try flashing ROM. I had similar issues when I installed 4ext RC9 and this helped

Try any sense ROM. I Think 1.5 hboot won't install AOSP ROMs, no matter whether you're s-on or s-off. I would recomend 1.49.0007 hboot

Thank you for the request.
I just tried CoolRom with no luck. Locks up at "HTC quietly brilliant"
Back to the drawing board.

Oh man... That is weird... Did you try superwipe? Some say it doesn't do anything special but it helped me get some leftover scripts wiped
Running out of ideas here...

You and me both... I'm banging my head on the wall trying to figure this out. At least i'm not bricked out without a rom that works. I'm fortunate Butterz works for now. But I would love to get back to PAC for CM...
Hopefully will be able to get a new phone soon, but until then I have to live with this. Will post back soon.

No Luck... Anyone else have any idea???

Here's a long shot
Copy your sd card to your comp, repartition it using recovery and then try again

You know... I was thinking something similar. I was thinking maybe I should use a different sd card. I have a 32 gb sd card at the moment. I might go home and use my 8 gb card. See if that makes a difference and repartition it!
Let me see.

I just installed the latest RUU.. That booted up fine. I was still S-off but now hboot 1.58. I just flashed recovery on and tried to flash MIUI for shiggles and its working.... I'll have to try some more roms later tonight to see if its a full recovery or just a little teaser.

Download Hboot 1.4 from the following link. http://androidforums.com/cdma-evo-3d-all-things-root/648902-radios-hboot-firmware-all-downloads.html
Put it to the root of your sdcard and rename it it to PG86IMG.zip
Reboot into the boot loader and it will load the zip. I believe you need to be s-off to do this. If you are not, then do the wire trick (do a quick search).
That should do it for you.
Let me know how it goes.

Hm. Maybe just try manually wiping everything from recovery instead? I never use superwipes and as long as I factory data reset x2, wipe cache/dalvik x2, I never have issues. That's just how I've done it on all my phones and I never have issues.
I just flashed Newts One S RC3. It took me a while but I finally found a method that worked. I did it once and got through set-up and was in play store downloading apps when it went into boot loop. I tried the same method again and it didn't work. I messed around with different methods for a while before getting the following to work.
What I'm using:
HTC Unlock method
Hboot 1.5
S-on
cwm recovery 4.0.1.4
I used a computer to fastboot to recovery. Did factory data reset, wipe dalvik, and cache all x2. I installed the .zip rom file from SD card. And then installed the .zip anthrax ics RLS5 kernel file from SD card. Then I rebooted and so far everything is working fine. I've been running it for a couple hours now. I manually downloaded my apps one by one from the play store for fear of repeating what happened to me the first time. And I've just finished signing in to everything I use and haven't had an issue yet.
I hope this helps.

Yes i herd about this but have you tried charging or connecting your phone to a computer, many people can't charge or connect to computer via USB because of this kernel
Idk before I sent my phone in a had been using that kernel. I had no trouble charging/connecting. But really what it comes down to is every one of these phones is different, then you throw in the hboot and other key factors and it just gets worse.

Turn off smartflash if you are s-off you dont need it.
Then flash chads htc leak rls1 kernel, that stopped all the bootloops and problems for me its something about the stock kernel i am guessing. Everything worked fine after using that kernel. Anthrax rls5 says not to use it with sense 3.6, its right on androidfilehost. Chad said to use the leak rls1 instead for sense 3.6.
boot loop
wonder why every sense 4.0 ics rom i try to flash to my htc evo 3d... it always boot loop, i done tired everything everyone told me and the same thing happens.. only thing that really works on my phone is gingerbread... any suggestion??? really would appreciate it...

In my case I can't get any ROM based on the leaked RUU to boot unless I changed the kernel, this applies to both 3.6 and 4.0 ROMs. I don't know if you're GSM or CDMA but I know the kernel from Shooter_Ice works for me which is a GSM ROM. I can flash that over just about any ROM and it works or I can install the ROM straight up and it works to. If you're GSM, try that, if you're CDMA then look for a similar ROM that isn't based on the HTC leak.

ICS ROMs bootloop if you are Hboot 1.5 S-On (which you are if you unlocked via HTC). I recommend you get S-off using the wire trick or downgrade to 1.4 S-off. See the stickies in the CDMA Development section (or GSM development) to find information and steps on how to do it.

+1, go s-off and you can flash anything you want
Loop FIX
Sometimes you will get boot loops even with 4ext.
One thing that I have found which works is flashing mean ROM 2.4 ICS as a base.
This ROM probably will not boot or will get stuck in a boot loop but that is fine in this case. From there on use 4ext to complete a "dirty install" of another ICS ROM. I recommend SOS De-Sensed Rom. Sometimes flashing a ICS ROM on top of another ICS ROM (booting or non booting) allows for install.
to bypass all the bs go straight to fastboot and flash 4ext recovery 1.00.5 and do the s off wiretrick and then try to flash the rom... when you get s off it releases more permissions for the kernel to flash to the rom without having to use flash image gui from joekrimz
try this
ok you need to flash the boot.img file trough the bootloader, if that doesnt work try flash image gui
Flash custom rom then pull out your battery, go to fastboot then try flash this boot.img with fastboot http://db.tt/kEUVhnvV

You can't flash the CM Roms with that hboot. It will always bootloop. I recommend getting s-off so you can downgrade your hboot.

I believe you have to wipe all the data when it tried installing CM9 without wiping data from my previous sense rom it got stuck in the boot animation ( Boot loop ) But if that wont work it probably is because your S-ON even though its strange when i was S-ON i could run CM9 perfectly but go S-OFF it takes some hard work and time but its very rewarding later

The problem is the stock ROM uses the new kernel which requires hboot 1.58. Flash a custom ROM that uses the VM leak kernel. Try MeanROM, Homebrew, d3rp, and / or ZR3dX. That will get your phone booting (hopefully), then go from there.

The way I see it, bootloops of the kind can have a couple causes:
Ur S-on and/or your hboot is too high
you didn't clear cache/dalvik/data
your kernel and hboot don't agree with eachother
solution:
Htcdev to get S-off
downgrade hboot
install custom recovery (if not alrdy present)
install custom rom

If you are using 4EXT recovery, try the "format all partitions except SD" in the wipe/format menu item before installing the ROM .zip file. That has worked for a lot of people flashing AOSP based ROM's.

Superwipe is not the same as formatting all partitions except SD with 4EXT. If you don't want to try that, I have no other suggestions.
When I first installed the Devil Toast CM9 ROM it wouldn't boot with superwipe but it did after 4EXT formatted all partitions except SD card.

I haven't tried 1.57.5757 (JBear for VM Leak) with AOSP ROM's yet, but that's possible. It would be worth flashing the 1.04 ENG or Jbear 1.50.5050 (GB) bootloader if you still have problems after doing the format all except SD card in 4EXT. You can find them in this post.

im not sure if this makes a difference but i am currently using SOS M 2.6.1 w/butter toast kernel(wipeing data and what not before install.)
EVO 3D CDMA
hboot 1.4
radio 1.09.00.0706
s off
not being an ass but a bit of searching or even reading the roms thread would of answered your question.
The issue is you most likely have hboot 1.58
You need to downgrade ti 1.50 or lower.

nice but it seems to me you just edited. but either way ill try to help..
Have you tried flashing hboot 1.50.5050?
Also do your reboots happen right after flashing a rom or do they take awhile to start?

alright, mhmm. after flashing the rom you want you should go back into recovery & wipe cache & dalvik then reboot. that might work.
also what recovery are you using?

ok, so i got the 1.50.5050 hboot
wiped data/ factory reset
wiped all except sd
installed rom
wiped cache and dalvik
and same thing. bootloops let me try another of the roms and see if i get the same thing.
ok just tryed a 2nd rom and im getting the same result.
Thats strange. im wondering if flashing a different kernel might help..
But at this point i might not be much help. If nothing else works you should try returning to full stuck & root your device again.. & no you will not lose s-off if you flash a RUU

Glad i could help.
Ok here's what you do to fix boot loops.
Backup sd card
Format all except sd using 4xt
Format sd card using 4xt
Toggle usb in 4xt
Delete the 4xt folder on the sd card from your pc
Copy back over your sd contents(including Rom you want to flash)
Flash Rom and reboot
This method worked for me
Unlocked
Hboot 1.5
S-off

Can you flash boot.img from fastboot? If you can flash the boot.img from Negalite zip. Can you enter 4ext recovery? Try reinstalling the drivers.

What recovery are you using? Download this and flash it from fastboot. Enable 4ext smartflash and reflash the rom. If it doesn't boot again extract the rom and flash the boot.img from fastboot. If you have any question quote me to get notified.

it works.
a big thanks bro, it worked. I earlier used clockworkmod recovery but as you suggested when i used 4ext recovery with smartflash enabled, it worked in first try, thanks a lot.:good:
Hi, I have a HTC EVO 3D, HBOOT- 1.53.007 that's stuck on bootloop after I tried to install PACMAN. I didn't get the S-OFF...don't know if this could have contributed to that.

Thanks...but is it too much to ask how I can go about doing all of this? I'm kinda klutz with this that's why I ended up bricking my phone btw don't I need 4ext to be already on the phone? All I have now is the clockwise or whatever it was thing on it. P.S: the original O.S isn't on the phone anymore cuz I went into something and it was removed

Did you unlock the bootloader on HTC dev? Did you install any custom recovery? How did you install PACMAN rom?

I did unlock the bootloader and I had installed 4ext recovery. During the process, PACMAN just kept rebooting the phone and I got so frustrated. I followed some other trend to rectify it, but I ended up taking off 4ext and the original O.S from the phone

So you have to reflash the 4ext and download a rom. You can find Here the 4ext recovery. Flash it through fastboot and after that you can enter 4ext and flash any ics sense-based rom and your phone will boot.

Did you install 4ext or tried only the ruu? If you can enter recovery I can help you on what to do there.

I can't install either of them cause my computer doesn't read the phone. I have CWM still on the and that's the only time I can actually mount the phone via USB to gain access to the SD card
