So I was walking my girlfriend through rooting her new Evo3D, and we couldn't get the phone to get past the 'MI' logo, so I figured it was a kernel thing. After four kernels and two versions of MIUI I realized that it wasn't the issue, it was the hboot.
She didn't back up, she has only had it since last night. I now know what I need to do to flash the ROM, but how can I get her back to stock so I can get the app needed?
Any help?
She has HBOOT 1.5, right?
Go back to the folder where you did all the rooting. Get the stock MIUI kernel (boot.img from the flashable zip) and place it in that folder. Open up a cmd and navigate to that folder.
Boot her phone into fastboot mode. (Vol down + power while the phone is off. Hit power button to select fastboot once it goes into bootloader) Plug the phone into the computer via USB
Type 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' in the kernel. If it successfully flashes, you are done! MIUI should boot up now that it has the appropriate kernel. You will need to do this for any ROM you flash.
As long as you have a recovery, just flash whatever rom you want through fastboot and the kernel will stick.
Or just download a stock rooted rom and flash that the same way you just tried to flash MIUI. It will work since you still have the original kernel.

Well, ROM's cant be flashed through fastboot. The ROM is flashed through recovery. Then you go to fastboot and flash the kernel with my guide above. After that, everything should be working fine.

Hopefully this works! Shes at church right now but I will have her do this ASAP and I'll report back!
(Awesome response time BTW)
Roms are flashed through fastboot just by loading your recovery into fastboot.
I never flash roms and kernels separately. Just go into fastboot, load your recovery, and flash as you normally would.

I had something similar when flashing MIUI. if you boot the recovery.img from fastboot it should work. you may want to re download just in case of a bad download.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
I'm having the same problem as epicchase. have attempted to flash miui many times. at first i tried to do it through my recovery. it didn't work. then i tried to use the fast boot method and flash it from the recovery that i opened from fast boot. i'm quite frustrated. it just wont boot miui, is it the kernel, i'm new to rooting in general but i think i know what i'm doing. i have spent who knows how many hours trying everything i can. i tried flashing the boot.img and the ROM separately. I have successively flashed android revolution hd, but that's no fun, its nearly the same as the stock ROM any suggestions would be appreciated. it boots but i guess it must be a boot loop but idk all i know is it freezes in the middle of the boot animation.
ps. i am rooted using the htc official method (unfortunately) and am s-on)

Did you do a full wipe before you flashed? Find Virus's Superwipe tool (.zip), boot to recovery with fastboot, flash the superwipe.zip, then flash MIUI.

well it didn't work it did the same exact thing. I've been giving it about 10 mins to attempt to boot is that long enough? I'm new to non sense roms I've only ever used sense, is there something I'm forgetting to do that is different for non sense roms. *frustration* (and i thought i was beginning to understand this)

okay well i tried to flash cyanogenmod 7 still no dice. I must be an idiot, sorry for being a noob.
this is what im doing.
im placing the .zip on root of my sd card. then opening my cmd.
i then type " cd c:\android" (i saved the recovery image in a folder named android) it says
"c:\android" just as it should i then type "fastboot boot recovery.img"
it restarts my phone in recovery
i press install .zip from sd card then click wipe cache and dalvik cache it goes and does its work
i then select the superwipe.zip it says flash compete however it says error or something but i just kind of ignored it.
i then select my miui.zip that i got from www.miui.us
i then select install .zip files the first thing that comes up is "md5 check fail- ignoring" and the continues and flashes (i have no clue what that part means but i continue anyway)
i select reboot and it starts to boot my phone i get the white screen with green htc.
i then get the miui boot animation for anywhere from 2-5 seconds and then it freezes.
i sit and nearly just stare at it and the clock. i wait at least 5 mins but have waited up to 30 mins.
the boot animation never restarts i just freezes there making me think it is not a boot loop (however the definition of an actual bootloop is slightly vague to me.)
anyway thanks for reading and if you have any suggestions i will be very happy for now im just gonna run my android revolution hd rom.
If superwipe isn't working, fastboot to recovery, go to the wipe menu, not install a zip, wipe dalvik, cache, and factory reset. Don't do the factory reset in android, do it in recovery. I'm guessing you got a corrupt download of superwipe, I would redownload it and try it again if I were you.
Try using this one.

make sure your phone is actually rooted if it is hboot 1.5 make sure to use htvdev.com
make sure you have a recovery image
Help im desperate. first time poster been lurking for a while...
I flashed miui to try it out i liked it fooled around a bit with it but now i want to flash a new rom. i cant do nothing with the phone. i can only recover back to my miui backup. My AOSP/Sense backups get stuck on boots same with new roms. Off the top of my mind, Hboot 1.50, Tiamant(sorry if i mispelled) kernel, and the rest i cannot remember. i will edit with more specifics later on but if someone can help please do.
try booting into recovery from fastboot.
for example, go to fastboot, and plug into a computer with working fastboot drivers. type:
fastboot boot /recovery.img
(where /recovery.img is the path to whatever recovery img you're using)
then restore yoru backup

You should have a sense kerenl to get sense roms work....
Follow the steps from the link below and you will be good to go.....you can skip step 2 if you have a working recovery but for step 3 you will need flash image GUI app.

wait you flashed a stock (sense) kernel onto a miui ROM? that's no good.
have you tried the fastboot method, it should work no matter what ROM you flash, the way dkdude said in the second post here?

oh no......i told to use sense kernel for sese rom to work.........i.e aosp kernel for aosp roms to work..............now you have only 1 way to get it work
1. boot into bootloader
2. select fastboot ( you should have necessary fastboot , adb files)
3. connect to pc(phone should say fastboot usb)
4. then flash a boot.img from the rom you want to flash using command " fastboot flash boot boot.img"
5. then type "fastboot boot recovery.img ( you recovery may have different name)"
6.Flash a superwipe tool.
7. then flash the rom from which you have flashed the boot.img in recovery.
8.Reboot the phone.
Hope this helps.........
And please from next time read the steps in link in post 3 carefully......
You should not choose stock kernel on MIUI or Cyanogenmod
Its for sense Rom Only. And Use only sense kernel on sense rom and aosp kernel on aosp rom.
Those steps are for flashing Roms without a PC.
the step 1 clearly says to choose a zip file of a ROM not a kernel zip.
If you dont want to use pc follow steps from step no 4 ( link given in post 3.......but as you have flashed a stock kernel...you shoul now flash a sense rom) and check whether it works otherwise folllow the above steps.
And the black screen with everything working is due to mismatched kernel/ROM

It's saying that you don't have sd-ext... Which is for apps to sd. So that shouldn't be the reason of your problem.

Apologies not required.
Perhaps it's a bad download. Or It could be that your phone just doesn't like the kernel, same happened to me. I couldn't run any of chads kernels at one point.

OH. There it is. You're s-on.
You have to get a Recovery and flash the rom.
Then after you flashed it, open the rom zip on a pc.
In the zip, you should see a boot.img. Move the boot.img to the folder fastboot.exe is in. Then reboot the phone to fastboot.
Then open the cmd on the computer and cd to the folder fastboot.exe is in.
Then type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" (without quotes).
Then reboot the phone normally after it finished.
See if it still turns on.

you're posting in the wrong forum my friend. This is the Evo 3D forum not Evo 4G. and please create your own thread. no need to revive such an old thread
you should flash boot.img from fastboot, the devblock error is probably because you are trying to wipe all partitions in recovery. with s-on you cant just wipe the boot partition. you have to use fastboot commands to flash the boot.img(or if your device has a recovery like 4EXT which uses smartflash)

You are probbably on 1.5x h-boot. With that h-boot you can only flash sense ROMs
hi i'm facing the same problem
i've did the same things tried to flash 4ext recovery old version of recovery cwm and nothing to do , just don't work ! it just boot into cwm 5.8 recovey
I had installed on the cm9 rom but it wont to boot , i figure out that is the kernel that is missing and I can't find it , because when we installed a custom rom we changed the rom but the kernel it last , it's the same so ithink we just have to flash the kernel , but I can't find it

How can I change the version of Hboot? OR it cannot be changed?
You need soff to do that.
Your best option now is to flash 4ext recovery. Make sure smartflash is enabled. Wipe everything and flash a stock sense based Rom.
You may still need to flash the boot.IMG , but after that you should be good

Hi guys,
Yesterday I finally got to instal a new ROM onto my phone. I've done this before so my phone was already rooted and had the bootloader unlocked. I decided t ogo with Cyanogenmod10. My build was 4.1.B.0.587. I used the tutorial on cyanogenmod wiki and done everything as was said, step by step. I wasn't sure if ClockworkMod would be installed with the rom, so I donwload x-tools and isntalled it form there. Once thaat was done I proceeded to installiion. Everything went fine up until getting into CWM. I am now stuck in a boot loop, constaltly showing the xpera free project logo, then the screen goes dark and this all over and over again. So I searched the net and forums, but couldn't find any one with this problem. Most people either get into CWM and from there can't get further, or they turned the phone on adn after using some application theirs system crashes, but nobody seems to have problems with CWM. I can't get anywhere from here and have no idea what to do. If somebody could please help me, I would be very gratefull! Thanks

My build was 4.1.B.0.587. I used the tutorial on cyanogenmod wiki and done everything as was said, step by step. I wasn't sure if ClockworkMod would be installed with the rom, so I donwload x-tools and isntalled it form there. Once thaat was done I proceeded to installiion. Everything went fine up until getting into CWM. I am now stuck in a boot loop, constaltly showing the xpera free project logo, then the screen goes dark and this all over and over again. So I searched the net and forums, but couldn't find any one with this problem. Most people either get into CWM and from there can't get further, or they turned the phone on adn after using some application theirs system crashes, but nobody seems to have problems with CWM. I can't get anywhere from here and have no idea what to do. If somebody could please help me, I would be very gratefull! Thanks
John

Hmmm...CWM is already available as built-in inside the custom kernel...no need to install recovery using x-tools anymore...just flash the kernel (boot.img) using flashtool...

I tried that. I opened flashtool, connected my hpone in fastboot mode, selcted fastboot mode, selcted teh kernel, everytrhign went fine without errors. I then disconected the phone, turned it on and once I reached the logo I kept pressing the volume down button, but it does nothign and keeps looping...

you have to wait until the LED appears then you can press volume down (you can also try volume up or power button) to enter recovery....but i suggest you flash stock rom back first and make sure that your phone can boot fine...then flash custom kernel and flash CM10 in recovery...

Hmmm...i said flash stock ROM not stock kernel...if you phone boot fine using stock kernel then you flash fxp kernel (custom kernel) and boot into CWM...no need to flash CWM separately cause CWM is already inside custom kernel...

WTF... So I charged my phone first so I reach the recommended 85%... Meanwhile I redownloaded the CM10 if it wasn't a bad downnload or something, from the original website. Once that was done, I turned my phone off, turned flashtool on a connected my phone in fastboot mode. I then flashed the kernel with boot.img from CM, unplugged and turned the phone off, waitign for the logo, pressed the volume down button many times and ntohing. I tried multiple times, different buttons too. Still the same. What can I be doing wrong?

When I have the phone flashed with stock kernel I can get into the CMW recovery. Trying to install CM with the stock kernel is i guess not a good idea right?
EDIT: So I tried downloading CW9 if that wouldn't make a difference, but it's the same story. Once I boot the phone it just keeps looping from the logo to black screen, no LED lights up, nothing. What if I did a factory reset either from CWM or in the normally booted? Could that help in anyway?

Hmmmm...how many times did i have to tell you, you need to FLASH STOCK ROM first...stock rom has stock kernel inside it...flashing STOCK rom will factory reset your phone...it should make your phone like new...after your phone boot normally then you can flash custom kernel (fxp kernel) and boot into recovery using that kernel...then only then you can flash CM10 into your phone....

probably bcuz u used CWM located in phone storage & deleted it. happens.
to shorten here all, i advice u to use allways kernels (built in) recovery. (forget about xparts its onlx for locked bl ppl)
also if u want to go for a cm (10+) build try LX from here bcuz FXP is NO longer supported! they kleave us. also its very outdated/old/bad
if u flash (any) kernel CWM is inbuilt, so just reflash the kernel using fastboot (cmd commands) , then on power on press the vol up button moretimes!! to enter CWM (must work) i really advice u to use some LX build. (dont forget to wipe partitions bfore flash)

Okay guys, I'm really confused right now. I just couldn't manage to boot into CWM with CM, I tried many versions, none worked. I then applied the exact same steps onto LX and it worked perfectly, I was in CWM after pressing the volume down butto na few times. Now it's been almost a month since I did this and I wanted to change to a differet version again, so I wanted to try CM again, but it's the same thing, I can't get to CWM. Any ideas?
Thanks
