[Q] Having the most difficult time! - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just got an Incredible at the begging of December and i know a little bit about this stuff and i follow the directions everyone gives me and nothing seems to work. Every mod that i have tried on my phone will NOT work. Oh and the UOT Kitchen things won't work either. I have Android 2.2 rooted before unrevoked 3.3 came out, with software 3.26.6. Any suggestions? Should I unroot and then reroot with unrevoked 3.3? Please help this is really annoying.

You need to list out exactly what you are doing. Are you having troubles with themes or roms. Are you using clockwork or amon rate,etc.
Tell us what you are trying to do and exactly how you're tryng

I tried the UOT Kitchen roms...Pushing though ADB and flashing it with all boot loops in result.
The themed market...Pushing though ADB and flashing it with all boot loops in result, and market failure open.
I can't do any themes at all.

I've never had any luck pushing anything. I always have to flash it.

Is your rom deodexed? I think that might be the issue.

Trying to avoid a brick! Quick help.

I got myself into a interesting situation. A quick answer would be greatly appreciated:
1. I'm rooted.
2. Trying to install the OTA so I can run 2.2 the right way.
3. I started a thread asking for help because I was confused on unrooting my phone. Didn't get much help, a quick flame, and last someone chimed in to install the OTA from Rom Manager. I asked if I could do this with Root and the thread was killed.
4. I did. The boot screen was the new one. But the radio wasn't updated.
5. I then attempted to unroot my phone. Followed the PB31IMG.zip method. Phone booted normally. Root was lost.
6. This is where I am now.
7. My question is, if I install the OTA now renamed update.zip on my SD card, will I run the chance of bricking my phone because I installed it once from Rom Manager while I had root (#3/#4)??????
Please advise so I don't MOD EDIT up my phone.................
And if you're going to flame and insist I should of just followed the 2.2 leak instructions, you're correct. But I took someone's quick answer and tried it assuming they knew a better method.

Well, "the right way" would be to wait for the actual OTA. Verizon would also have your back if you brick. But, anyway...
If you're still on the 1.00.03.04.06 radio, you can probably follow the instructions in that thread now that you've flashed back to the stock ROM. However, there still seem to be a few cases of people bricking their phones or being stuck in a bootloop after flashing leaks.
If you are confused/concerned/afraid of bricks then you just shouldn't flash the leaked OTA. This is not a flame, this is sound advice. Wait for the real one.
I'm fine with flashing. I just keep hearing about this "double install OTA and brick your phone" issue and I'm trying to avoid doing that. If the one guy didn't chime in with the suggestion to use ROM Manager, I wouldn't of had this issue.
My radio is still 1.00.03.04.06. I just want to make sure I don't run a risk of bricking.
If the hboot updated, i would say not to apply again. If it didnt update then i would say to see what happens, but dont take my word for it 100%

I personally have had a .77 HBOOT since I got my phone in April. My mom's phone, on the other hand, had the .79, which she has had since May, and she sure as hell didn't have no 720p camcorder. I don't think that the OP's phone having .79 means with any certainty that the OTA already applied once. I think the radio version listed on the HBOOT screen would be a better indicator.
But absolutely, running the PB13IMG should ensure that he's as far back as he can go, so why not try it just to be safe...

That's what I just did before I posted this thread. I installed the PB13IMG and restored everything back to stock. You asked about the HBOOT version and that's .79. I'm comfortable flashing and doing the update. What should HBOOT say? Has anyone successfully updated the OTA from .79 HBOOT?
Thank you for the help. Sorry for the questions. I completely comfortable with rooting, flashing roms, and kernals. This is going back to unroot stock is just new.
I want to install the OTA and I'm good to go. Just making sure it's safe now....

Agreed, however, I noticed after running the PB13IMG, my HBOOT was also .79, which could have only come from the PB13IMG since I hadn't tried to do the OTA yet. Just trying to add pieces to the puzzle to get a better picture for future reference...I'm sure this guy wont be the last to ask...

I appreciate the help guys. I guess my question would be if I ran PB13IMG, lost my root, back to stock, my HBOOT is .79 and my radio is still 1.00.03.04.06 and not 2.05.00.06.11, I should be at the same point as everyone else for installing the OTA from my SD card. Right or wrong?
When you read these threads and people are installing the OTA twice and bricking, are they installing the OTA again when the radio is already updated to 2.05.00.06.11?
Yep. I think you can flash it again, but be real cautious, as this is your second time flashing it, but if the radio is still the old versoin, you should be safe.

HELP!!!

I've had my phone rooted for about 2 weeks now. I've been playing around with ROMs and their all great. Now, I have a huge problem and I don't know how to solve it. My phone loops on me when I try to get into Recovery (Clockwork). what should I do? ADB is not working anymore. FREAKIN Windows 7!!! I have an unrevoked bootscreen and the phone stalls. So I have no ROM on the phone. Any help getting my phone working again would be appreciated.

Have you tried to reflash the Clockwork?
Did you update your radio? If not RUU it. It will wipe you back to the pre root stock image.

I have a copy of clockwork, but how can I flash it when I can't use unrevoked because I can't get any further than the initial boot screen on the phone to establish USB debugging.

I also have s-off. I'm probably over thinking this whole thing. If I could get clockwork back on the phone, things would be fixable very quickly.

New evo owner, want one click root and a good kernel.

This is like my 10th android phone however with trying to root this i noticed some techniques have a built in image file or whatever that won't let you install roms? I want to be able to install roms, is there a good one click root option for me? Also what would be the best kernel?

2. No one can tell you what will be a good kernel for your phone
3. Wrong section
They're all good kernels. Some just work better with some phones. It really depends on the phone.

I found its trial and error with different roms also like three previous poster stated depends on phone. Kernels are easy to flash.

Well you'll need to run unrevoked again because z4root only gives you temporary root, and goes away once the phone is rebooted, meaning you'll have to run it again.

Not trying to scare you, just saying from what I heard, you lose root after rebooting after z4root, unless the unrevoked did work. But if its all good, no need to go messing with it.

ok if you just got the phone you probably have the newest hboot. I got my phone in december and i had the newest one at the time. (i dont know if its been updated). i wasnt able to use unrevoked, but maybe that has changed since. If you cant use unrevoked, then there should be a sticky on one of the categories, ( i think android development) that will tell you how to root your phone using SDK, abd, and your PC ( thats the way i did it).
As for kernels, like everyone has been saying, it really depends on how the device accepts the kernel, but I am currently using netarchy toastmod 4.3.1 cfs no havs sbc more universal. I would try using the netarchy toastmods, they seem to treat me the best. Download a few and then give them a try. For hardware version 004, dont use BFS... they will cause reboots constantly...
Enjoy your new phone and welcome to the family.
here is the kernels page i use...

Just plug your phone into your PC and launch the program. The program does all the work until your phone is rooted and nand unlocked. After it's rooted, you can install custom kernel, ROM's, radio's, etc.

Thank you for proving my point in that the was NOT for the evo.
First thanks founder.
I never understand people that try to flash ROMs for other phones...
I mean, wouldn't it be obvious that it's not going to work?
Black Ice Rom is for the Galaxy S 4G from Samsung,its not meant to be installed on the EVO.http://androidspin.com/2011/06/22/rom-krylon360-bionix-black-ice-galaxy-s-4g-for-samsung-galaxy-s-4g/
@HipKat - I think it's OK to try things out that "shouldn't" work... it's part of the learning process. People who are newer to all this are going to try things that are obviously wrong to more experienced people... but it shows a good inquisitive spirit, no? When I think of all the time I wasted trying to install the Sense camera on a non-Sense ROM... oy.
I flashed BlackIce the other day and it's looking like a keeper!

You and everyone else that's new to this need to realize that flashing something incorrectly can f your phone up. A borked radio flash can perm brick your phone for example. Read thoroughly and make sure before you flash anything that you check md5s, and since roms, kernels, radios, miss, etc are model specific make sure that you are in the right forum.
seriously? I'm a noob to custom roms on my evo but I know not to do that.

if you had been reading up on rooting and really doing your research then you should have learned that you never accept an update right when it comes out because you lose the ability to root until a fix is found (and it often takes some time).

Edit: Okay, just booted up SWAG ROM. Unlocked using HTCDEV method. Pushed the kernel via adb fastboot, boot.img from the unzipped ROM folder. Then flashed the zip which was on the root of the SD card, just as described in the EVO 3D development forums, using twrp1.1.1.

Here's what I came up with. Still may do a video. Hope it makes sense, it was very early/late when I wrote this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1458491
Slightly off this topic, but along the same lines, so I didn't want to start another thread.
I rooted back in November, prior to the latest OTA update - and had a pretty good understanding of what I was doing - I think.. heh
I NEVER flashed a new ROM, Kernel, Radio, etc. Only backedup, rooted, removed some bloatware, and that's it.
I still have superuser su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip (I think?) in my root folder of my SD Card. Nothing else.
I backed up my Nandroid to my computer, as well as all the TitaniumPro backups of bloatware.
I saw Brad560's two posts - both Barebones and Stock ROM's.
In the Stock post, he listed Deodex'ed, Odexed, and Original UnRooted ROM. This confused me, as I'm still trying to wrap my head around the flashing part. Then I saw a reply about Radios?
I think at this point, I definitely want to remain rooted, but would like the "official" release from HTC/Sprint (in root form, stable, as close to the original as possible, for now).
Which ROM should I grab?
Will I need to flash a new kernel? I don't have any desire to overclock or anything.
And will I need to update the Radios separately?
Thanks, sincerely appreciate any help.

I had to go to htc update 3 x first was a security patch, phone rebooted, then back to htc update little larger file this time, phone rebooted, went back to htc update and finally got the 35mb 2.3.5 update, phone rebooted. I have new hboot now to as well. If my usb port dont work at all is there a way to root just from the sd card and is it even possible?

Thanks for replying.
I have read it. That's the first time I had heard of those things, which is why I asked here.
I think some folks forget what's it like to learn this stuff.. and while many here have been around for awhile and have absorbed over time, there are people like me (a military pilot btw lol) who has a tough time grasping some of the verbiage. I had the rooting thing down. Flashing a ROM seemed easy enough, though hadn't done it. Then someone throws up 3 versions in that post and 2 in the other. I get his barebones stuff - for the most part - he stripped stuff out.
Anyway, I suppose I will take the plunge and pick one of the ROMs, then suppose flash the latest radios.
Thanks!

For the time being, only way to "root"/unlock is via HTCDEV method which requires you be connected to your computer via USB sync cable.
