I just rooted my Incredible. I got the Incredible as a replacement for my Eris. When I was rooted with the Eris, I had Amon-Ra recovery, and now with the Incredible I have Clockwork, which I am unfamiliar with.
When I got the Incredible, I didn't format the SD card (like a dummy) and the Incredible partitioned it.
I put my ROM .zip file on the Incredible partition. Went into recovery, did a back up, did a data and cache wipe, and when I went to flash the ROM, Clockwork was reading the Eris partition, and of course, the ROM was not on there, so I did a restore and here I am.
Can I just put the ROM on the Eris partition and flash from there? Will it install and boot properly? Or should I just pull all the data and reformat the SD card?
If you are using the SD from the Eris, there's your answer...
On the other hand, did the DInc not come w/ it's own SD, and have you tried that one?
If you don't have the Eris anymore, why would you still need that "partition"? Just format the whole card to FAT32 with no partitions. If that doesn't fix the problem then the card may be buggy.
Thanks, but it was neither... DUH! When i mounted the phone, it was reading 2 drives which I thought was 2 separate partitions until I realized that one was SD and one was internal storage.
I am all good on that now, but now I am having issues with flashing ROMs because I have an SLCD incredible, and I can't find a kernel that I know for sure has the drivers I need for SLCD... but taht is a different topic!
Thanks again.

Tell me how it goes. I've been helping my friend who has an slcd. The first rom I put him on is skyraider 3.5 and it works perfectly without changing the kernel.

Yes which is why I know Lou's #6 should work. I also think koush's #2 works with slcd.
I believe certain ROMs come with a kernel that supports slcd. CMs ROMs should work.

Hello I have been having issues flashing any sense 3.0 roms on my phone. Other roms flash perfectly fine including gb roms. I am currently running INfected Inspire 4g and ran Mikfroyo prior to that as well as many more froyo roms. I have a version 002 Evo purchased on launch day. I am fully rooted using Amon Ra's latest recovery. The roms flash perfectly fine but I get an infinite boot loop on the white "HTC Evo 4g" screen. I have tried superwipe and have used it 3x prior to flashing a rom, I have the latest radio, pri etc. I have also tried flashing with a downgraded 1.7 pri. I have "double flashed" the roms. All with no luck. I still get the bootloop. Is there any fix or ideas how to resolve this issue I would really love to use some of the newer GB roms.
Here is a list of Roms that give the bootloop after flashing:
Dominus_Zeta
Virusrom Kingdom Revolution
B.O.S. Kingdom port r2
Misfits speedy port
Virusrom gingersense
Evolved Rom shifted "Get abducted"
There may be one or two more but there are enough there to find a common denominator. If there is any way that this can be fixed I would be greatly appreciative. Also I will be subscribed to this thread and have xda sent to my phone so most of the time I will reply very soon to answer any questions to help solve the issue. A huge thank you in advance to any one willing to offer a helping hand.
i believe you need to partition the sdcard to make enough space for the /system. yes, some /system will be on your sdcard.

boot into recovery, and choose partition sdcard. then choose partition sd. then interactive sd partitioning. choose a size (around 2 gigs is reccomended) and parition.

I have the same hardware, launch day 0002 hardware, I recently started using Virus Kingdom ROM, the latest version from his website. When I was first messing with it I would have problems with the white EVO screen not going away, I would have to pull the battery and get back into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik and make sure to select shut down phone instead of reboot.
Hope that helps!
Thank you I will try this method.

can you get a logcat from it? if you have adb set up use 'adb logcat > log.txt' and let it run for a minute or two. Then use control+c to stop it (on a pc) and open up the file it created

I keep re-downloading the rom but every time at the end during the boot image flash I get an error. Installation aborts and I get nothing if I try to boot. Can anyone help with this?
Make sure you clear out everything good. I had an issue in the beginning and had to wipe the cache real good. No issues since
I have tried. I have done numerous cache wipes prior to install. I don't know what the deal is. Thanks for the advice though!
I guess this is probably a stupid question but, would not having an ext partition on my sd card stop the rom from flashing?

no having sd ext is fine. no problems as far as i know. but are you using Clockwork mod recovery? because the rom wont flash with clockwork you need amon-ra 2.3 there is something in the godmode scripts that is in an unsupported format for clockwork.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705026
here is a link to the amon-ra recovery. if you have questions about how to install it feel free to pm me. btw you don't flash recovery's in a recovery so don't try to flash it in one
I'm gonna try that. I realised that I couldn't flash Mik's rom either. I think I may have an old recovery. Thank You! I was using Amon-RA. I think it was an old version though

yeah you might have been on 1.8 instead of 2.3 and if it still doesn't flash then its probably never going to. godmode seems to be tempermental with what phones it wants to work on and theres multiple people who no matter what they tried cant get it to flash. so cross your fingers and hope for the best
I had the same problem. Couldn't flash with cwm. So I flashed amon ra 2.3 and then flashed synergy rc2 god mode it took about 20 minutes but worked.

I am using energy 3.5 sense rom with an anthrax kernel. I just got my new 32gb sd card and have been looking into partitioning it. I tried once and couldnt seem to find the ext2 folder. I put my 8gb card back in. I have done some looking into it some and am wondering what is the best way to partition with clockworkmod? after i do get my sd card partitioned do i have to reflash the rom and kernel? I read it in a tutorial but was wondering if it was essential. Also, if i go to AmonRa 2.3 where can i find it? i can never seem to find where to download it.
Thanks guys im still trying to learn.

Yep, Moreno is dead on the money. I partitioned mine with Amon-Ra and had zero problems. Of course, then I accidently wiped my SD Card while doing a flash and had to start over. Make sure you use Dark Tremors Apps2SD after installing your ROM to take full advantage of your partition (but you probably already knew that!).

is it true that after partitioning your sdcard that older nandroids you have from where the sdcard was not partitioned cant be used without causing some issues?
It shouldn't be a problem... I believe I have seen that question before and the dev kinda of covered that with this recovery, he actually did a fantastic job so to be honest you won't have any issues as far as that, it still should do the trick.
Ok thanks. Was also wondering if it's necessary to do a fresh download/install of all apps from the market?

I just got my og Evo 4g (on the 3d now) back on for my wife since she dropped hers and is in 2 pieces lol. I havent been on the 4g forum in a long long time and need some help from you guys.
I have found out the im on android 2.2 with baseband version 2.15.00.11.19
Was running Eternal Prophecy v6.1 and on 2.6.32.27 netarchy kernel. I know im pretty far behind and want to know how i would go about getting the phone up to date and run a rom that is pretty stable since its for my wife. She has been bashing me ever since ive found out about rooting and flashing roms, so i want to hook her up with a stable rom with all bloatware removed, and show her that "aftermarket" roms are way better than the one that came with the phone. Any recommendations would be helpful.
Oooohhhhh....1 thing, i dont have the SD card anymore and most likely will be putting her SD card in, would that be ok?
Yes that should be okay. Might need to partition the card via recovery. Roms I have been using cm7 for aosp and mikG for sense. They are both good. Kernels that are out for gingerbread are anthrax, lionfish, and a couple of others. If you want to go straight stock give tommytomatoes classic rom a go. He has tweaked that rom pretty good. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply....I'm still kinda noob on partitioning lol, what do you mean exactly by partitioning via recovery? Is that the whole ext4 thing?
If you are running the latest version of Clockwork mod recovery, you have the option to partition the SD card directly from the recovery. Hope that help man.

What do I do after I partition the SD card?
Partition your card 32/1024, once you do that your SD card should be complete. Partitioning your card will delete everything in your card so be cautious and backup your memory onto a computer

What's partitioning actually do? If I back up my wifes SD card then partition the SD card....do i. just copy the backed up data to the card?
(I am 14 years old so I hope you understand that I could be missing something quite obvious)
Ok, So last night I was looking for a good rom and stumbled upon Synergy, for those of you who don't know the rom is pretty old and the download links aren't working anymore thanks to SOPA (I think it was SOPA). Well, back on topic, I found these links:
I loved this ROM! I had the zips of Synergy RLS1 and Godmode on my laptop. Direct download links below.
Synergy RLS-1 Supersonic
RLS-1 + Godmode Supersonic

So after downloading the Non-godmode ROM, I flashed it normally using Amon Ra, and installed no custom kernels, and becuase I have learned the consequences of not wiping I used both Calkulin's and Virus' superwipes. I read that it can take up to half an hour for the rom to settle and set up the SD card from the splash, so I left it plugged in while I was sleeping, this morning after about 10 hours it was still stuck on the splash.
I did several battery pulls before posting this thread and flashed back to stock via bootloader just to make sure my phone wasn't a brick.
Can someone point me in the proper direction?
Thanks!,
Wulfre
I really sorry for bumping but I want to flash this rom so badly and I cant get into the actual device, just up to the splash.
Has anyone had this problem before or has fixed it before?

I'm not sure how to partition the SD card so that may be the problem.
First back up your sdcard on your computer. Partitioning will erase your entire sdcard. You stated you were using amon ra. Go into recovery and you will see an option to partition your sd card from there. Then replace the files you backed up from your computer to your sdcard. Reflash synergy.
