Sorry for the noob question but i wanted to know if i wanted to update my prl and profile do I need to return to stock sense and unroot or can i just flash a sense rom. I am S-ON Running 10-29 CM10
Just flash a sense rom. Viper 4g rom is what I use and works. Anything based on stock sense should work. No need to unroot or return to stock.

Okay I just tried that and i get a error when i try to update either prl or profile. I'll try another rom just in case.
What rom did you try? I'm sure Viper4g works, but any rom based on stock sense should also work. Not sure what went wrong. Not sure it matters but what Hboot are you on? 1.15 or 1.19?

I was upgrading at a sprint store today and they said they are having issues with activating new lines, PRL and Profile updating are included in the problem and they said all I can do is wait until it is fixed by them.

I am on H-Boot 1.19 but that shouldn't be a problem I ended up relocking and used the RUU after that I updated both my PRL and Profile.

Thanks for the heads up but i think its fixed now
Thank you every one for the help with my question you guys rock!
Hello, my apologies if this problem has arisen in the past. however, after rigorously browsing the forums, I came up short.
When I install/ flash the jellybam rom or cm10.1 rom, the screen stops working except for in bootloader and twrp recovery. I heard you have to downgrade the touch panel, how do i do that?
I have;
-HBOOT 2.09
- build 3.19 and I belive everything else is up to date on the latest software.
I _think_ you need to update the touch panel drivers/firmware also, located here: http://themikmik.com/showthread.php...LE-Jewel-Radio-Collection&p=220556&viewfull=1
tp_SYN3202.img is the latest, but it says it will break touch screen in recovery and on non-stock roms if done incorrectly.
I would ask this question in captain_throwback's latest firmware thread before you install tp_SYN3202.img
I'm only pointing you in the right direction, I have NO experience with updating the touch panel .img - please ask someone who has dealt with this before you do ANYTHING (I just dont want you to break your evo!)

Thanks mate, I'll go there to see what I can do!
Cheers and Thanks!
The newest touch panel firmware doesn't work with AOSP, AOKP, 3.15 based ROMs (or lower), or older recoveries..You need to revert to the old TP firmware before flashing any ROM not based on 3.16.

As far as I know all the files are located in Capt Throwback's firmware thread. You probably need S-Off to flash them though. The new 3.16 OTA updated the touchscreen's firmware. This new update is only good with the latest TWRP and 3.16 based roms..so to flash anything on the old base or AOSP you need the old touchscreen firmware. Hope that clears it up a little.

Yes, I've finally got it to work! Thanks for all the support. All I had to do was follow dirty racun's s-off method. For some reason doing that my build number went from 3.16 to 3.15 and my band version downgraded from 1.12.11.1210 to 1.12.11.1119.

I seem to have the same problem.
I'm running the viper rom on my evo 4g. Was going to upgrade to the latest version and wanted to update firmware first.
I grabbed the latest twrp (4.2.1) installed that, rebooted.
I then grabbed the latest firmware from themikmik, installed that and rebooted.
And i then grabbed the tp_syn3202 update and installed that and rebooted
And now my touch screen does not respond to any touch input. I don't know what to do at this point since they only thing i can do is either force the phone to reboot, or go into hboot by holding down the volume down and camera keys. And all that does is ask me if i want to reinstall the tp update.
I don't know how to get into twrp to even try and install the latest rom assuming that would fix the issue.

nevermind - i got it. I didn't realize if i left the PJ75img.zip file on there it would automatically go into trying to update and not give me any other option. I deleted that file and then i was able to get into twrp and install the rom update.
Thanks

You have to downgrade your touch panel driver to the 3.15 version. Check the thread below and go to the downloads link in the first post. The touch panel driver is installed the same way you upgrade firmware, through the bootloader.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704612
On the page with the downloads, the touch panel zip is in the second post and is labeled " tp_SYN3202.img zip". If you've forgotten how to do a firmware update, hit the top link in my sig and look for the section on firmware updates.
Seriously though, there are plenty of newer, up-to-date ROM's out there. Why would you bother with this one?

Wow ! Exactly what i was asking for ! I really cannot thank you enough !! Thanks for your time and patience ! Really appreciate it !
Are there any roms you can recommend me ?
Any of the 3.16 or 3.17 Sense ROM's in the Development section, the Sense 5 ports.....and there are a ton of AOSP ROM's in Original Development to choose from. Just try them all until you find what suits you

1st off all sorry guys if this is another repost but i just got tierd of searching for this problem. It may be me not knowing what exactly to search for... don't really know. But...
I have one unbranded Amaze (guess it is unbranded since there's no tmobile logo or other's carrier). There is no way i can find a working wifi ICS rom. By now, i just found the same problem on tmobile support forum without a reliable workaround.
So... 1st i've used the stock ruu from tmobile. no success. wifi starts, some times it detects few ssids with no singnal but not mine wich is few meters away. I also tried android revolution HD rom with final firmware from their thread and latest hboot. Still no wifi. At first i thought it's a hardware isssue, but that thought is gone since i got back to GB and everything works just fine.
I'm thinking to get the security back on and try update to the latest official software... but i have a feeling that won't solve the issue...
Does anyone have a clue about this...?

Run the t-mobile R2 ruu >> flash latest firmware >> flash jbear hboot (optional) >> flash 4ext >> flash arhd
if your wifi still not working then it's a hardware problem good luck.. From what I'm thinking your wifi works but the correct module files are missing reason..

Hi there.
You should give us more info as to whether or not you're s-on, s-off, supercid, etc.
Did you try and connect to other Wi-Fi's? Like a neighbors unlocked Wi-Fi?
You said it worked on GB and not ICS...
Hmm. I would try and relock, run a RUU, then finally unlocking it and doing S-OFF, Super Cid, and whatever you need to do again.

already specified in my previous posts... on some roms it works... i suspect this being because of the kernel. It worked with venom rom and it works with stock GB. the only problem is that venom has no bt.

If the actual ruu fails then the world will end soon.
Make sure that you actually used the right ruu since it would clear out all software problems. Sometimes even hardware problems.

Brand new with a custom rom on it? Hmmm... Sounds like you bought it used.
Anyway, make sure its not a configuration issue with your wifi router. Go to a local hotspot that's free and see if you connect.
BT does not work on viper rom. So the question is, does it work on another ics - based ROM, or are you saying BT does not work at all?

It's been almost a year since the Evo LTE. I have dealt without the bluetooth. I don't really use it but it would be nice when i'm the car. If 4.3 fixes it it would be great if not i'm just gonna wait and see what new phone is out. HTC needs to stop this bull**** and trying to be like crapple, no removable battery and no sd-card bullshiet. I hope Sprint gets a Sony phone.
It's not always HTC's fault, some people have to take responsibility for hacking their phone and read more and not run and get a replacement at the first sign of trouble. I'm not saying it isn't a hardware problem, but some people don't know anything about knowing to flash radios, correct order of steps to take, correct way to install a rom or kernel and try to just forge their own path which isn't goin to work.
I'm posting cause Ink in the viper thread everyone noticed u were misinformed and in case u don't check back in there for some reason. Update ur radios, and do it in the correct order. It was a big deal when the update came out.

Yes...... But it needs to be done correct. I'm not totally sure but I think u have to update firmware in order. Meaning if u didn't do the firmware update before the newest than u need to do that first. Go into settings> about software information> more. Look at ur baseband version and than start by updating to the firmware after that one. Also u need to be s-off, and these are not flashed in recovery. U put the zip on the root of the sd card and bootup into the bootloader.
If u got this phone on its launch and rooted and s-off'd a while ago but never did a firmware update like this or took an OTA, you might be on the this phones first firmware.
Then there is the deal with the touch panel part of it. (TP img) only the newest firmware presented a problem. U must be on a newer twrp and must be on a rom that came from the lady update or your touches won't be detected. Do everything correct and the screen becomes more responsive. Check out that thread and orders for everything.

For the past two-three weeks, possibly longer, I noticed that I no longer have mobile data unless reboot my phone while not connected to Wi-Fi. It seems the phones doesn't want to find data after leaving Wi-Fi ranges. I've tried different ROMs and tried out new Kernels -- Nothing seems to correct this. I'm wanting to to try and update my RUU since I saw that someone was able to correct this issue by doing it.
I'm running HBoot 1.9 and 3.16
I've read up on Rum Rummer and ViperRUU -- and still unsure which I should use and really, how to. I'm just wanting to update the phone and radios and then re-flash a ROM to see if the issue resolved.

For the past two-three weeks, possibly longer, I noticed that I no longer have mobile data unless reboot my phone while not connected to Wi-Fi. It seems the phones doesn't want to find data after leaving Wi-Fi ranges. I've tried different ROMs and tried out new Kernels -- Nothing seems to correct this. I'm wanting to to try and update my RUU since I saw that someone was able to correct this issue by doing it.
I'm running HBoot 1.9 and 3.16
I've read up on Rum Rummer and ViperRUU -- and still unsure which I should use and really, how to. I'm just wanting to update the phone and radios and then re-flash a ROM to see if the issue resolved.

You didn't mention anything about what firmware version you're on, what ROM (or ROM's) you've tried. This could be very useful in helping track down your issue.
Typically, RUU isn't necessary unless you booger up a partition, or want to get your phone back to a relatively stock state. It stands for ROM Upgrade Utility or Repair Upgrade Utility.
Rumrunner is for gaining S-off with the newest OTA update. Not the same as VipeRUU.

Still need to know your firmware version. Go to Menu>Settings>About Phone>Software Info>More and list your baseband (firmware) version. As far as data issues, some AOSP ROM's are known for them (mostly older builds). The newer AOSP ROM's seem to have the issue more or less fixed. Do you have data issues with Sense ROM's or AOSP ROM's, or both?

Baseband version is 1.12.11.0809
I just flashed Viper to test with Sense based ROM, but still the same. If I walk out the house/work, it won't regain mobile data until I reboot or reconnect to wi-fi.
You have a rom suggestion I should try? I'll give a shot.

Could be an issue with the Sprint connections optimizer (which I don't use). You're a couple of firmware versions behind, also. If you're not S-off, I recommend you do so and update your firmware to the latest version. You can use Facepalm to get S-off in less than five minutes time. Are you by chance using a custom kernel with Viper? I've run Viper before and never encountered data issues. Do you only have data issues in and around your house, or do you have data issues in general?

Yeah, I'm S-Off currently. I'll have look into updating firmware, searching now. As far as the data issue. It's everywhere. The only fix I've noticed is either turn off wi-fi completely or reboot after I've lost wi-fi signal. For example, right now I'm connected to my home wi-fi, if I leave the house, it won't use cell data unless I reboot. But also, if I disable wireless and reboot while in my house, I'll get cell data. It seems it never kicks off to cell data when wi-fi lost.

Strange
I'd definitely look into updating your firmware. If the issue persists afterwards, you may need to use VipeRUU to go back completely stock, and if the issue is still there, you most likely have a hardware problem and need to get your device replaced.

Just wanted to update in case someone else runs into this issue.
I updated the lastest firmware with the link in the previous post and flashed to Sense 5 ROM. It's now working as it should. Been running for a few days now. I haven't tried another non-sense rom yet.
I really appreciate all the help.
