Evo LTE Flashing stock rom/kernel - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I have a soft bricked Evo LTE I was trying to s-off the phone but usb debugging is a prerequisite and the phone doesn't boot to system, only hboot In the meanwhile I'd like to restore stock rom and then have the choice whether or not i wanna s-off the phone Really I just need to restore it to stock rom The kernel, a zip file, can't be flashed through recovery and there's no way to flash it through fastboot either I think What I need is a nandroid back since twrp is installed and working so if someone could give me a back I could restore through twrp rather than having to flash Please help! Thanks

You can flash the kernel via fastboot. No need to worry about USB debugging. Hit the top link in my sig and scroll down to the section on S-on kernel flashing. Otherwise, I suggest installing a ROM like MeanBean if you're on the old partition layout, as it has a kernel installer to aid with flashing while S-on.

Flashing Kernel via fastboot HTC Evo LTE
OK I flash the kernel via fastboot using boot.img file but when I install the rom, Jewel_2.13.651.1_OTA_odexed_rooted_signed.zip, through recovery I get an error "kernel not installed" I'm running hboot 1.15 with s-on and twrp recovery Like I said before the phone's bricked it doesn't get past the HTC quiety brilliant screen

Did you try flashing the kernel after the ROM?

Yes Maybe it's the rom i'm trying to install I dunno All I really need to do is boot the phone so i can enable usb debugging so I can s-off the phone and then installing roms should be easier Maybe I should ask for someone to post a nandroid backup? What's a good valid stock rom for this phone?

Flash this ROM in recovery. Make sure you follow the installation instructions and also do a full wipe.

[Q] wifi error evo 3d stock rom and kernel

I rooted my evo, and loaded leedroid on to it. The WiFi did not work, and I tried alot of other kernels since it should be å kernel problem. Now I flashed my nandroid just to get WiFi back, and also flashed a stock kernel. And it's still not working!
My phone is a EVO 3d gsm hboot 1.49.0018 htc unlock s-on og the stock rom and stock kernel
Does somebody out there kloss what to do?
Always use fastboot by computer to flash any zip.. or flash image GUI..

When I flashed nandroid i used clockwork mod, and for the kernel I use Flash Image GUI

Boot your clockworkmod by computer via fastboot method. Thats why i hate 1.50, i need computer or notebook with adb installed to flash anything.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Ok. So I sould flash my nandroid, then use adb and flash the stock kernel there?
I think the CDMA and GSM work somewhat the same via S-ON when it comes to kernels..
You should go and wipe find a rom that is close to stock that uses the stock kernel..
Then throw it on your SD card
Now turn debug on.
Now use ADB
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot recovery.img
Wipe and flash the rom
Your set..

Hey, I'm getting similar results with s-on unlocked.
Using 4ext recovery control, flash the v11 rom (superwipe), goes into bootloader, installs, warns about boot change, reboots.
From then on it loops the HTC splash, black screen with the buttons backlight, reboot.
Flashing the boot.img using fastboot doesn't make a difference.
Any ideas?

You may need to go S-OFF as well.
Otherwise, try a different ROM.
If you want to stay S-ON, I can recommend the KingCobra V1.2 or V1.5 ICS ROM.
Both are stable. V1.2 still has beats support, V1.5 is a newer version.
However, V1.6 won't work since you're S-ON.
Good Luck!

Read carefully my previous post,
Flash the v11 base ROM with SMARTFLASH ON!
let it reboot
Boot back to recovery
Flash v11.1 update with SMARTFLASH OFF!
wipe cache and dalvik
Reboot
Reboot into recovery
Flash v11.2 update with SMARTFLASH OFF!
reboot
Done
REMEMBER THAT SMARTFLASH MUST BE OFF FOR THE UPDATES
I ran into the same problem and this method fixed it

Here's the ROM I'm using: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647674
It's KingCobraICS.
However, download version 1.2 or 1.5.
1.6 will NOT work if you are S-ON.
If you want Beats audio, download version 1.2.
If you want the latest S-ON version, download 1.5.
This ROM is very stable and I've been using it for a long time!

Another possible fix
Download mwakious rom v7 base
Once downloaded get the boot. Img from the folder
After using previous steps to get up to v11.2
Use the fastboot flash boot boot.img command (cant remember if this is the exact command just check to make sure) to flash the boot from v7.
This is the last method i can think of hopefully u can get this rom running or you could just stick with whichever other one you chose

^ This. If you can't boot v11, then do this method. So flash v11 and then v11.2 and use the boot.img from v7 and flash it with fastboot. It will work without a problem. Worked for me. But remeber to turn off smartflash when u flash v11.

Reboot in recovery, do a backup, do a factory reset, flash the rom then flash gapps
Reboot and enjoy

[Q] Need help rooting/installing custom rom

I've unlocked the bootloader of my Desire X, but whenever I try to install Android revolution, it gives me a bunch of errors saying the file couldn't be opened, any rom I stick on the SD has trouble being read by Nexus recovery , I've tried 3 other SD cards. Also after I rooted the phone, I still can't give applications such as Titanium backup root privileges because it says it couldn't find the root binary?
I've got Nexus recovery installed on stock 4.2.
I've also wanted to try other recoveries, is it as simple as flashing a new one through fastboot or do I have to do something else?
I really need help, so I'd be grateful for any you can offer me

If you are on stock 4.2, you also have HBoot 1.25, so maybe you can't install these roms because your HBoot it isn't 1.24 or lower.
Try to re-flash stock recovery, then flash neXus' again.
Or maybe it can be kernel stuff, did you flash the attached boot.img?

But the rom does say it is available for 1.25+
and do I have to flash a stock recovery? Can't I install another recovery (not stock) by using the fastboot command?

Look in the 'Desire X Original Android Development' Section for a TWRP recovery for JB hboot. It's working great for me. You can flash it the same way you flashed the NexusRecovery (fastboot)

Yeah. You can just flash it over the NexusRecovery. You never have to go back to stock.
Okay, I just flashed TWRP over my current recovery.
I've tried to flash Sense revolution and it just fails through TWRP, why is this?
Wipe the phone and try again.
Maybe It can be because of MD5 verification. Only happens on that ROM?

Installing Meanbeam - Froze

Hello,
I was attempting to install Meanbeam.
Evo -LTE of course. I did the back up and the factor wipe then in TWRP, choice install and selected the rom from the sd card. The problem is that it has be "installing" now for about an hour and a half. It appears to be froze.
The last two lines are installing update... and formatting and mounting partition...
S- on. I was attempting to following Mikeys directions for S on phones.
At this point is there anything I can do or just let the phone sit longer?
Thanks
Edit. I was able to get it to abort. (somehow, I am not entirely sure) haha
Were you able to get your issue resolved?

If your device is not in an S-Off state, I believe you'll have to flash the MeanBean boot.img booter via the fastboot command. This is what I had to do after achieving an unlocked bootloader and installing a custom recovery, such as TWRP or ClockworkMOD.

MeanBean has a kernel installer built in to facilitate ROM flashing when S-on. You have to flash the ROM zip twice, once to flash the ROM, then again to flash the kernel (boot.img).

Thanks Guys.
I was able to get it to cancel out of the stuck install screen, I am not exactly sure what I pushed to get it to that, but.
I had an older version of TWRP.
I rooted a while ago and was just getting around to flashing a new rom.
Once i upgraded to the new TWRP the install went perfectly.
