[Q] Stuck on splash screen - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I have rooted multiple devices and flashed countless roms on this phone but i went to update to sense 5 Y-6 and got stuck at splash screen. Then when i tried to go into recovery it shows the "TWRP" logo and then reboots. I then tried to fastboot flash an older version of TWRP but still no go. I did do a full wipe before trying to flash Y-6.

I let it sit for a couple of minutes but it kept rebooting after about 30 sec of being at the splash screen.

Yep. If you can't get adb working. Plan b. Look at my signature n look for recovery zip flash. Download the normal recovery not kitkat one. Rename the zip to PJ75IMG.zip n added to your root external sdcard. Boot back to your bootloader. Flash it. Power off your phone. Remove the zip. Boot back to recovery. Good luck n let me know.
In the future post issues on my thread or pm me. Good luck

To use Fastboot you need to have adb working. Add the zip to your sdcard once you boot into the bootloader just follow the screen. To flash with Fastboot. Add the recovery.img to your adb folder. Code is
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Man I wish I was quick enough. I experienced issues like you. All I needed to do is when I held the power button and got to the bootloader I went to fastboot and power down. I then got back in bootloader and then go into recovery. It seems that if you reboot to bootloader while the device is loading, recovery won't even start up. Just thought I'd share because you will probably run into this again.

Correction: adb and fastboot are not the same and not dependent on each other. One is used while the device is booted up (in either recovery or the OS), and the other one is exclusive to the bootloader. The drivers are also different.

Yes I know that. The way I flash my recovery.img is using Fastboot. Maybe I should explain it better.

[Q] Just a little help

So I recently switched over to the Evo 4g LTE and I'm trying to get everything set up to flash ROMs and such.
I unlocked the bootloader, rooted, and installed TWRP 2.3. I tried to flash the latest Viper 4g ROM but it wouldn't go past the boot screen so I figured I must not have something set up correctly.
Still a little iffy on the S-Off, S-On and if that has anything to do with it. I have extensive experience with flashing on Samsung phones so the switch to HTC has me a little lost. Thanks for the help.

I had the same issue. I had to go into Settings > Power > Uncheck "Fastboot". After doing that, I was able to boot into recovery.

[Q] I messed up, need some guidance

Ok, I I tried to install CM10 the other day. I thought I made back ups of everything aparently I didnt.
So let me start with the specs
******tampered*******
******unlocked********
JEWEL PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT 2.09.0000
Radio 1.12.11.1210
OpenDSP-v31.1.0.45.0815
eMMc-boot
Oct 18, 2012
When I goto recovery I goto the TWRP Recovery screen with all the blue boxes.
Apparently I must have deleted my internal SDcard , I cant mount it. It shows 0mb. If I try to click restore it shows nothing on the internal card.
I do however see the Micro SD card.
For awhile, I was able to see the Cyanogen Mod splash screen just spinning, now is just black.
I can boot into Recovery mode.
Any helpful ideas to try. Im guessing I need to get my internal sdcard accessible again somehow?
Thanks

Did you fastboot flash boot boot.img ? You need to do that since you are S-ON.

Lol. I said to preform a wipe, install the Rom, fastboot the boot.img, and restart the phone.
Not sure why you did anything with a token and you don't need to keep flashing recovery. No clue what the other thing is that you're flashing. And you're going to want a much later version of TWRP. Preferably 2.3.3.0+.
So I'll run through this again even though there are guides to all of this.
1. Wipe Cache, Cache/Delvik, Data, and System.
2. Install your ROM.
3. fastboot flash boot boot.img (that's a ROM kernel).
4. Restart your phone.

You need to elaborate on nothing "responding." If touchscreen doesn't work then you need to downgrade using babyracun and S-OFF.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Like delakit said, you must have the 3.16 firmware with the new touch panel. Meaning, you can only use 3.16 based sense ROMs. If you get S-off, you can downgrade your firmware and use any ROM you like.

Boot Loop on all roms Virgin Mobile H-boot 1.58

Hello,
I am stuck in a constant boot loop with every rom I flash. I am able to get into the stock restore menu (volume down + power) and from there boot into TWRP 1.1.1. Flashing JmzStock_VM_Shooter_Odex doesn't work as well as any custom roms. Also, RUU doesnt work either, it gets stuck on the HTC logo (silver with blackground) but the RUU fails. It just says unknown error.
It is Unlocked (or at least thats what it says in pink in ShooterXC) and is says S-ON.
Any help would be so lovely!!
You won't be able to run the ruu unless you get s off.
Are you wiping system and boot before you flash?
You may want to try flashing a boot img through fastboot
Sent from my Evo V 4G using xda app-developers app
Flashing the boot.img from your currently installed ROM fixes 90% of bootloops. It is definitely the way to fix.

Is there a different way to get S-Off without booting into the OS? I've only seen the wire trick work when they have USB debugging on.

You can reboot your phone once you're done and delete the file with a file manager. The only issue you'll have is if you reboot the bootloader.
