I just got a new Evo yesterday from having my old one replaced due to screen seperation.
So my Evo Android 2.2 and all the newest OTA on it..
Before my Evo was rooted running CM6 and life was great. Now I can't get the thing unrooted with Unrevoked 2.3.1 and can't find a new method with the Evo I have now with all the newest OTA..
Any suggestions on what to do so I can get this awful HTC Sense off my phone A.S.A.P..
Thanks so much to every one in advance.
Your sure that it didn't work because its not like the old days were it flashed and engineered version. When the phone reboots it will have the same ROM as it did when you started the process. Only the stock ROM will be rooted. I'm sure you checked to see if it has ClockworkMod recovery on it now. I just rooted a EVO I received two days ago it worked fine.
on unrevoked it says that it failed and say it happens some times and to try again.
I tried about 5 times this morning and it failed every time.
power down pull the battery spin in a circle three times while chanting unrevoked will revoke the carriers attempt to prevent me from rooting. Then try again!
ok so really the battery part is the only part that you HAVE to do but the rest is still kinda fun. My friend had this problem and whether it was coincidence or not pulling the battery and then putting it back seemed to do the trick first time through it worked after.
Thanks.
I will give it a try when i get home from work.. Now I just have to wait 5 more hours till I get off work, durrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
A battery pull did the trick..
Thanks for the help..

Okay guys this one has been screwing with me for a while now and is getting progressively worse.
I have a launch day EVO 0002 hardware and I believe an Epson panel but don't remember that one 100%
My evo was running great up until the 31st/1st. I put on a CM6 rom and a snap kernel. Phone was running fine then started lagging horrible so I did a reboot.. Phone went into bootloop. So I went into recovery wiped data/ cache/dalvik 2 times (clockwork recovery).
Restored the phone to Freak E Froyo which I had been running for 2 weeks. Next day I tried the senseless Freak E Froyo and wasn't as much of a fan of it so I installed AVA v6(then flashed king kernel 8 over the top) then the touchscreen issues arose. My screen would think it is being touched when it is not pages would flip, apps would open and no buttons would work. When i hit the home button it opens whatever is on the left of the screen and when I push the back button it opens whatever is in the middle of the screen.
So I nandroid'ed to My Freak E froyo after wiping all again. Still did it. Flashed CM6 6.0.0 after wiping all. Still same problem but worse and even more noticeable on CM6 .
I then switched to AMON RA recovery, tried the same thing: wiping all 4 times, reinstalled CM6, same problem.
Tried reinstalling stock 2.2 odexed and rooted was fine until about 5 hours after running then almost every time I could only use the phone for about 6 seconds and the touchscreen would become unresponsive...
I am thinking it is a piece of a kernal not flashing correctly so It is causing problems maybe?
If not that do you think it could be a CPU problem itself? Maybe going out and unable to hold up anymore and causing freezing?
Any suggestions will be tried. If not work then...I will most likely try a 2.2 RUU and format my sd card and see if that does anything.. and lose root/nand unlock
Yes my v002 EVO had the same issue and all 002 are novatek but I dont think its a screen problem.
I gave up trying to figure it out but I know with mine if I ran ANY rom that came out before the 1.47 OTA then it would NEVER have this issue..
If I ran ANY rom after the 1.47 OTA then it would always do it..Sometimes it might take hours for it to happen but it will..I'll bet yours is probably the same way.
The offical HTC 2.2..yup same thing
The offical HTC 1.47 OTA..yup same thing and this is when it started.
I wiped/flashed/wiped whatever you can think of and the problem NEVER went away on any newer ROM's but as soonas I load a older ROM it never happened.
Look for the EVOlution v9 ROM..Its the ROM I ran until I exchanged the phone..I'll bet if you load that ROM you won't see a single touch screen issue.
Just my 2 cents but save yourself the headache and exchange that damn phone..
That is what I will most likely do tomorrow. Will take it back to stock to do it tonight but it is just weird because I never once had a problem until the bootloop. My buddy who has an evo we got em at the same time store ..etc.. His alot of times will do this and he is not rooted or anything...Just hoping they dont give me any problems tomorrow at sprint...
Im not a noob but this is a problem that i cant solve. I had to jus recently re root my phone. Flashed my 1st rom and phone would show same time for up and awake time sometimes awake time would be a fraction of a second more than up. ****in weird. Pulled battery... problem still persisted. flashed a few other roms also restored a nandroid(jus a week old) to see if it would stop. no go. Maybe I need to re root again?
stock htc kernel 15
rom- currently mikfroyo 4.30. tried calk's evio 1.7.7. and my nandroid back up was calk's evio 1.7.5

Do you have the latest raidios updated? Alot of people have been having issues with the NV and PRI being 1.90. Try downgrading that and see if it helps
my pri is only 1.34 so maybe i should try the latest radios

Also, do you use 4g? There is a known bug, that when you turn 4g on, and then toggle it off, that the radio remains scanning, and holds a wake lock. So you have to turn 4g off and reboot. Just throwing some things out there.
I am having this same problem, I thought it might have been some thing in Juice Defender... but my screen setting is set right and everything... I have to manually shut the screen off by pressing the top button... if I dont - it just dims to very low brightness and stays on...
I am having the same problem as well. Never had but had to switch evo's due to my old one dying. My new one always stays awake. I have tried four different rom's, same thing. I killed my old one updating radios so I am hesitant to do that again. Any other ideas? My am out and this phone is almost useless in this state. The battery life is down right atrocious. I hate to get rid of it but if this can't be corrected I won't have a choice.
As in title really....the error that HTC Sense has stopped.
I'm on Viper 4.07 Rom and turned on phone, it boots up fully, but constantly flashing that message that sense has stopped.
Will not let me access any part of the phone apart from pull status bar down!
Any way to resolve this without doing a restore or fresh install?
It's my mother's phone and aint done a full backup for about 3 weeks and she has got a LOT of app data etc etc that she will lose if I have to reflash or restore back to 3 weeks ago.
Might be worth mentioning, that the battery completely died on her phone, as in 0%.....plugged in charger, booted up ok, but with that htc stopped message...it wont go away.
Any ideas will be HUGELY appreciated :good:
Thanks

Hello everyone. Since the Title has character limit im gonna have to explain myself here better.
Ive had my HTC One M8 for 4 years now. Pretty much since it came out in 2013. I installed ARHD back in 2014 and its been working just fine ever since. A couple of months ago i decided to go back to 45.0. Everything went smooth and everything works just fine.
But a week ago the phone decided to just go woopdido and it wouldnt open up any apps in Playstore although i could still see them. So i tried to restart it and when i did it got stuck at the HTC Logo. I tried to restart it a few times but it kept getting stuck. I was super confused due to the reason that i havent really done anything with my phone besides since the day i installed ARHD 45.0. I got desperate so i reinstalled it but this time with 53.1 and that went fine too except for one fishy thing and that was that i remember before when installing ARHD, when it got 30% it wouldnt take 2-3 minutes for it to finally start installing the ROM. It would take a couple of seconds for it to start right away and be done.
After installing 53.1 phone worked just as fine except for the fact that it was slower than it has ever been before. Which was also weird. Either way. After a couple of hours of it working, setting up every app i needed i restarted it and again it was stuck at the HTC Logo. Welp i guess..
So after that crap i went back to 45.0 again. It went good and all except it keeps getting stuck at 30% for a while but whatever. Going back to 45.0 though didnt help. Keeps repeating the same crap after a while. After a restart when having the phone doing nothing for hours gets it stuck at HTC Logo again. I literally cannot do anything with it atm and i have no clue how to go further from here as i have not had this before.
The HTC One M8 is rooted. S-Off everything you really need. The current TWRP version i have is 3.1.1.0.
Your firmware may be outdated. I would think it would be, as you said you haven't installed anything to the phone since 2014.
This (old firmware) alone would play havoc with the current ROMs. And also not play well with current TWRP, which may explain why going back to ARHD 45 is still resulting in problems.
What goes it day for OS number on the bootloader screen? If blank, what are the hboot and radio numbers?
The original issue could have just be due to some damage or corruption to the OS. It happens.
Also, the phone was released in 2014, not 2013.

You missunderstood me but its all good because its on me. I was meant to say that i havent touched anything since i installed 45.0 a couple of months ago right. The firmware is fine and all for the current version i have. It was for 53.1 too.
And out of the blue it just got stuck on the HTC Logo. I tried something and it was updating the SuperSU which actually was the reason why it got stuck on the HTC Logo. I installed 2.79 and now it boots just fine and the phone is back on speed again. Apparently 2.82 has issues which is the version i assume it tried to update to through both TWRP and Playstore.

Ah, I do see now that you stated you installed ARDH 45 a couple months ago. There is a lot of info there, so I missed that part.
Glad to hear you sorted it out. It's unusual to see a simple SuperSU update cause such a chain of event; but s#it happens I suppose.

Yeah it does. I also forgot to mention that my microphone went to sh*t also. But its not because of this event. Although after this last reinstall i did the microphone picks up my voice better than it did before it went crap. But people cant still hear me when they call me

I did another reinstall of 45.0 just now and this time i also wiped the System, Data all that which ive never done before hoping that it actually helps.

Update: Apparently after reinstalling any version of ARHD and then updating SuperSU breaks the phone. Any ideas?
