cant install roms - HTC EVO 3D

For some reason everytime I try to install a Rom it won't load past the HTC screen. Only Rom working on my phone is viper 3D and It doesn't have the update profile option which I need. Are there any options i have?

Just go to recovery and wipe everything but sd card (fat32 partition).
4ext recommended.

I've tried multiple types of sense roms. I've tried restores, full wipes, everything I could think of to do off of a phone. I really don't have access to a computer. I've tried Rom manager and 4ext. Anything at all would help right now. I'm just trying to get it so I can update my profile and prl. I have the newest hboot and s on.

OK. Try this https://www.dropbox.com/s/e11tu7sdv06lc72/Super_Wipe_EVO3D.zip
You flash it from recovery just like a ROM. And before flashing make sure you mount system, data, cache in mounts and storage.

No go. It said error, status 1, and aborted. Should I try reinstalling my 4ext recovery through the control...or...

Newst h-boot? You need a sense ROM then. And enable smartflash in 4ext. Sorry, I didn't read your post carefuly ?

Well I tried the wipe, and it wouldn't work with system or data mounted. Unmounted it took forever. I fell asleep and it went back to the main menu when I was woken up. The last resort Rom and viper 3D Rom seem to be the only roms that have been working but they don't have the update profile or prl buttons. What roms should I try? Butterz isnt working, so anything else I could try could you please link me?

Tried to upgrade to CM10 Now im stuck in a bootloop

I was on speed rom 7.5, but i liked the way cm10 looked so I wiped my data and all that and flashed it. My phone hasn't done anything but stay on the cyanogen rotating thing for like 15 minutes. Please help. (Ps. I was dumb and didnt make a nandroid backup -_-)

same thing happened to my phone with CM 10, so i ended up instaling the android revolution rom for the time being.
What recovery are you using? Use 4ext if you aren't, try again, if it loops more than once, you either forgot to wipe before install or you need to flash the kernel manually.

I also had a problem when I flashed Speedrom but with versions 6.5 which I had previously working perfectly but then decided to switch to SS3 and then switch back. Now I also had the bootloop issue thing where the thing would just keep spinning. So I re-flashed SS3 with the faux kernel and then just did the two things:
4EXT Recovery btw
Wipe data/factory reset
Clear dalvik cache
Then install the rom and once done, go back to menu and reboot from recovery. It should tell you that the previously used boot.img will be used (that is what I get when I flash my roms and they work perfectly).
+1 is this helped!
Thanks it worked! Though I switxhed back to speed rom lol

Something got screwed up with your settings as I use superwipe every time between roms, nands etc., never an issue. Also, make sure you are using most updated recovery. Glad you got it working this time.

My cousin gave me his Thunderbolt.
I was able to operate the device fine. Then I did an OTA update. I wasn't able to complete the update cause I needed more battery. So I re booted and now I'm getting this screen.
When I re booted and hit menu it has an exclamation point symbol with an android on the screen in the back ground with Revolutinary CWM v4.0.1.4.
Now I'm stuck in this screen and can't get out.
If this phone is rooted why did you do an OTA? Turn the phone off and hold the power buton and power and volume down and see if you cant get in to recovery from the boot section. Most likely you might need to flash an RUU

I didn't know it was rooted or was attempted to be rooted. The OTA didn't go through I think because I was getting an error message saying I needed more battery.
I'll try that out.

I didn't know the phone had this but anyway I held power and volume down and now I have a white screen that has Revolutionary highlighted in pink.
Ok I chose Recovery and now I'm at a screen with Revolutionary CWM on the top.
In recovery can you select different things like install rom? Wipe? So on?

The only options I'm given when I scroll is under Fastboot is...
Recovery
Factory Reset
Simlock
Hboot USB
Image CRC
Then select recovery and let me know what all options you have. If you can load roms. I would do a wipe and then install a new rom and see if that fixes your issue.
While in fastboot does it say s-off or s-on. If it says s-off you are rooted.

Then do as suggested.
Download a rom .zip file and place it on your sd card.
Boot to Recovery and wipe everything using the wipe options.
Then choose to flash a .zip and select the rom .zip you downloaded and put on the sd card.

You can find roms in the Development section here at XDA, also at Rootzwiki, and my Rom is linked to my banner in my signature in every post.
There are quite a few options to choose from.
I suggest reading up on some of them and decide what may suit you best.
Assuming this is all very new to you, you may just want a rooted stock rom.

Just to note I'm on Recovery screen and it has an exclamation point symbol in a triangle and android symbol in the background.
If you like sense rom sky raider is a great stable rom. It sounds like you are new to all this. Santod sense ICS is a good one to. Like said read up on the many different ROMs out there. Many are good ROMs.
Yeah WiFi tether is way better. Just ask how to set it up after you choose your rom. As the settings in that depends on you're rom. Main thing is your phone is fixable and not broken. Just don't do ota any more as its for stock unrooted phones.

[Q] Thunderbolt failing to boot after custom ROM

I recently attempted to root my HTC thunderbolt, and to do so I used the htc dev unlocker and then this "HTC Thunderbolt Tool'
rootzwiki.com/topic/27310-all-in-one-the-htc-thunderbolt-tool
After that I downloaded a rom and installed it through the 4ext recovery, it all install fine and I did do a factory/data reset but whenever I reboot after the rom install, I get the HTC white bootloader and then the screen become black with a back light to it.
I have tried a number of times to re-install the rom and have tried to use other roms but all of them seem to end the same way.
I have used:
BAMF FOREVER 1.1
BAMF MECHA ICS
AIRBORNE GOUI
Killsense 3.7.19
Lightning501
few more
My phone is a HTC Thunderbolt and when I attempted to root the phone it had a hboot version of 1.0.8 and had a stock version of ICS installed.
Sadly I have a phone without a working rom and I had forgot to make a backup so if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. Preferably I would like to keep the phone rooted but its not necessary.
Thank You
I'm a total xda-developor noob, so I hope I didn't mis a thread with a the solution all ready on it.
Make sure you do the factory reset, wipe dalvik and cache. Flash the ROM and reboot. Sounds like your missing a step somewhere 8)

I have tried clearing everything but still doesn't seem to work.
One thing I forgot to mention is sometimes if I wait long enough on the blank screen It boots me back into the 4ext recovery, don't know if that makes much of a difference.
The way I have been installing the rom
Load ROM onto the SD
Do a "wipe data/factory reset"
Go into install sd and choose the Rom which is in a .zip file
I think this is how its supposed to be done, but not sure.

Problem is you were coming from the ICS OTA.
The All In One Tool alone will not get you rooted after taking the OTA.
In order to fully root and s-off after having the OTA loaded, you would need to follow the steps outlined HERE

You can use whatever Recovery you want, Clockwork Mod is old and not really suggested to use, especially with newer roms.
I miss the RA recovery I had on my first bolt. I use the ext4 recovery now. Glad Santod was able to help you out!!

[Q] Flashed rom, now can't provision

Relevant;
S-OFF, TWRP, CM10 based ROM (RootBox)
Everything is working except for my phone. I get 1x data, but the phone number won't show up, I can't dial out without getting a "your account doesn't have this feature" recording.
The MEID comes up correct, but I can't do ##786# or any PRL updates.
I didn't see anything in the FAQ's, but I'm assuming this is because it's not based off of a stock sprint rom. How can I do the PRL/Provisioning?

In addition, if that doesn't work for you, try to make a phone call once you've flashed a Sense ROM. Sprint may have to re-provision your service, at which point you'd be good to go.

Yep. One thing I neglected to mention is that I updated the radio firmware after I went S-off before I loaded the new rom. I was still using Freshmod previously and everything was working great. Since Fresh isn't in development anymore I figured it was time for some upgrades.
Now I can't load a stock rom on to it. Every time I try to install a rom through twrp it reboots about 10-15 seconds into the load, when I get back into TWRP /sdcard is corrupt and has to be reformatted before it's recognized again.
Already did a factory reset/wipe in TWRP 2.6.0.0.... Is this an issue where TWRP has to be downgraded?

Shouldn't be. Boot to recovery and mount your internal storage to your computer. You should get the option to format it. The file system type is FAT32. Should be good to go afterwards. The issue seems to be related to swapping back and forth between Sense and AOSP, but I personally have never had the problem.

I had to do an advanced wipe in TWRP and wipe everything, format the internal SD, found a small (350 meg) sense rom (UR/EVO), that loaded this time. I was able to go in and activate the phone and do an activation and PRL update.
Going to try and reload Rootbox now... Wish me luck.
