It doesnt say that in Amon Ra. I had the same "problem" and wasnt sure on my first radio-flash if it was a good idea to reboot, because everyone kept telling me, that I mustn't touch the phone until its finished - but Amon RA never actually tells you that it finished a radio flash, it just stops in recovery, where you have to hit 'reboot'. (I always wait another 2 mins or so after clearing cache is done, just to be save)

ususally it will have an information that the flashing has completed than it would finish the installation when you hit the reboot now menu

if u've pressed "reboot system now" in recovery, just waiting for reboot, it's ok.

Stuck on boot screen...

Sooo, I just tried flashing Damage Control 3.5 a few hours ago and since then my phone has been absolutely horrid to me. I tried flashing the PC36IMG.ZIP but it wont let me for some odd reason. I've tried flashing different roms (as long as different radios). All to no avail, the only things I can access is the main recovery screen and the Clockwork recovery screen.
If anyone can help me out here so I don't have to pay the $100.00 claim to get a new phone I will gladly donate to XDA for all they've done thus far.

Shoot, well I guess the best I can do is try to reformat my card and go from there. I'll report back with my findings.
I think i can help, but i might be a bit off since there not enough info on the post.
Anyhow, you will have to:
1) Download a new Image (stock?): ex. qap.la/~netarchy/BurntDroid-1.0-Froyoized-netarchy-signed.zip
2) Doanload a stock kernel: qap.la/~netarchy/netarchy-toastmod-4.0.3a-signed.zip
3) push both images to your /sdcard/
3.1) adb pus file BurntDroid-1.0-Froyoized-netarchy-signed.zip /sdcard/
3.2) adb push netarchy-toastmod-4.0.3a-signed.zip /sdcard/
4) reboot your phone in recovery mode (hold volume down, click power)
5) wipe data/factory
6) whipe cache
7) advanced -> wipe dalvilik
8) Install zip from sdcard
9) choose zip from sdcard: (you should see the BurntDroid-1.0-Froyoized-netarchy-signed.zip there, choose that one, and say yes whe asked)
10) repete number 9 with netarchy-toastmod-4.0.3a-signed.zip
11) now choose +++++
This should get you to a working phone. You will have root and a decent kernel.
I ope this helps.

This is what happens to me when I try to install a rom/kernel. It will work its process and do the "Writing Boot" and "Deleting Files." But once it gets to "copying files," the loading bar will slowly move to 1/4 of the way full, and once it reaches that point it will say Istallation Completed. Does this information give anymore details for help?
Edit: I did try that method, And the same thing happened.

That was the first thing I tried doing. It would do the "Checking MD5 sum..." and then it would just give me an error. I just formatted the sd card (after copying everything to my computer) so im going to transfer my backups back to the SD and see if that does anything.

Does the radio really matter though? I mean, I have a feeling that even if I do flash the new radios that I'm still going to be stuck doing what I'm doing now.
This is exactly what it says when I try to do a restore:
Checking MD5 sums...
Erasing boot before restore...
Restoring boot image...
Error while flashing boot image!

I download them from here, then I set my phone as the "Disk Drive." Or USB Storage when using CM. Move the roms to my phone, then reboot into recovery and flash from there.
Update:
Just tried flashing a different firmware using the old way. With the recovery-windows.bat method.... Seems to still be freezing on boot though. :/
ive seemed to have fixed it. i wiped phone like 10 times. reformatted sd card, installed the rom called virus. it went to bootloop. so i let it do its thing. when i woke up today, it was perfect!

Sounds good man! I'll try that too and see if it works.
Update: Now it's not even turning on and when I plug it in, the orange light just flashes. I know the battery isn't dead because I had it plugged in all day. So, I guess that means I can take it to a sprint store tomorrow and have them be just as confused as I am about the situation, but without having them know that the phone was rooted? Wish me luck!
P.S. Maybe I'll be upgraded from a Nova to an Epson screen? Wishful thinking....

haha yea maybe! that'd be nice, but im sure they would know if you rooted. even if you did, some employees root their phone as well, or at least these 2 dudes at the shop i go to have, so they help me out when i cant get answers here, which, so many people do, thats why i try to keep in contact with certain people on ehre via skype(branden.allert) or aim(backongb561)
I wen't into the Sprint store today in town... The lady was absolutely no help at all. Plus they didnt have any EVO's in stock. So I just decided to screw it and file it as a claim under insurance. I should be getting a replacement in 5-7 days. Hopefully I wont have the screen separated, light leaked, white spot in the lower right of the (NOVA) screen in this next one.

Q ......Please help out ...please thank you....

Hey how are you guys ....I could really use you guys help if it is possible...i rooted my HTC evo 4g and roms a few roms already ..I'm right using Vaelpak 3.0 remastered ..I tryed to flash another Rom but can't seem to get it back into recovery mode...also I'm trying to get my 4g working again please help ...thank you ..

Hold the top power button and most roms will have a Reboot option, click and go down to recovery, if it doesnt have it, then turn off phone, hold volume down button and power at same time, when bootloader pops up scroll down to recovery and hit power and your in recovery.
make sure you wipe cache and dalvik cache.

So, when you're in bootloader, and select recovery, what does it do ? What recovery were you using, amon or clockwork? You said 4g isn't working? What's it do ? Did you backup your rsakeys, or use amon ra to make nand backup? Let me know.

go to Amon-Ra thread in development. Download his image file, put on the root of your SD card, boot into bootloader, when it asks if you want to flash, accept(vol up I think) then let it flash and try and boot into recovery again.
If you are using ROM manager, you can try to flash a different version of Clockwork. That worked for me.

Amon-Ra is a much better recovery than Clockwork. Seems to be less borked and less issues than clockwork.

Unless you backed up before flashing, you probably lost rsa keys. Have fun trying to get em back. Now find a way to get a recovery. Go to amon's thread and there's instructions on how to flash it using terminal emulator
A drop of Chuck Norris's semen was placed on Android OS. We now have CyanogenMod.
Mine did the same thing, not being able to boot to recovery... somehow I guess the recovery image got corrupted... I just used ROM manager to flash Amon Ra (by clicking "flash alternate recovery") and it booted right into recovery....
As for the no-4g.... not good
Ok I do some reading and I got ny 4g working and I know way more then I did before this ...thanks guys for the help ....

[Q] Droid Incredible ROM fail install freeze on reboot

I have searched on google and through each droid forum site I have been sent to from google trying to fix the problem that i am having. I am currently trying to intall Incredible re imaginedv2.3 on my HTC Incredible. I have tried installing through both ROM manager and through the actual recovery. When I go through ROM manager it fails on the install reboots my phone and freezes at the HTC logo. The same thing happens with the actual recovery. Fails on install asks for the update and it cant find the update.zip file. It then freezes on reboot. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong.
Sounds like a bad\corrupt download. Check your copy's MD5 with the ROM developers and make sure its not corrupt. Try downloading it again or download another ROM and try that.

its called incredibly reengineered actually lol
If youre trying it through revovery you need to "choose zip from sdcard" then scroll to downloads,using the update.zip is for something else
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I have the zip on the root of my SD card. When ever I choose it it asks about the update.zip should I just hit no and ignore that step. I'm using the latest version of the clockworkmod. Version 3.0.5
Sent from my Htc Incredible using XDA App
Reengineered prefers. 92 HBOOT fwiw, but it will boot with an older version. That info is buried in the IncReEngineered thread. Plus, in recovery, you do NOT choose the option that says "apply update.zip", rather, you want the selection that lets you choose the zip file you want to apply.

Are you sure your checking apply zip from SD card and not update.zip. if you have a recovery image you should restore it and flash the rom thru rom manager

^ that, and if not, flash back to CWM 2.5.1.2, try installing then. I had to do that when I installed that rom. I know he updated it to work with 3.0, but try anyway. If it works you just just upgrade to 3.0 after flashing the rom.

Still no luck I still get the status 7 error, and it aborts the install. I even downgraded to 2.5.1.2 and it still fails. I am starting to think that i should stay with the one that I am running for a while before i try it again.
I did some quick searching for status 7 and found alot of solutions. Not sure which direction to point you but some common themes were hboot, radio, and permission (make sure read write).... with a specific error u should be able to figure this out. Also a major problem lies with all zips in their scripting since CW recovery update(cwr3 uses edify). Incredibly reengineered zip may need to be updated to be compatible but u think it'd be more common problem if this was the case.
Ok. I will look into all of them and see witch one works. Thank you for all the help.

You sure you have s-off? Check this out.....also make sure SD formatted fat32. I've seen it recommended to wipe twice without leaving recovery(worked for some)....if you try all you can and are still stuck pm koush. He'll set you straight
Is the SD card formatted as FAT32?
Does the SD card have ample free space?
Is the radio (baseband) version on your device at least 2.x?

I reformatted my sd card to FAT32 and it fixed the error. the only thing that i ran into this time is that it failed copying over at a certain line is that because i need more space on my sd card?

[Q] I cannot seem to restore my nandroid back up

I have a Telus DHD and I just temprooted the phone and installed clockworkmod 3.0.0.5. I did a nandroid backup and when I go to restore the it after trying out several roms, it won't boot past the HTC screen. I tried starting over and installing the stock Telus rom and nandroid backup again and restore and still the same thing. Does anyone have this problem?
I'm not 100% sure but I think the problem is the CWM version. Did you make the backup with CWM 3.0.0.5?
You need permanent root and s off (I recommend eng s off).
Follow the guides in the development section.
Also try a non 3 series clockworkmod recovery if you're using a 2.2 rom.

how would i change the rom manager if i cannt boot the phone passed the htc screen please help
Ok. Don't worry, this can be repaired.
First you need to see if you can reboot into recovery.
Take the battery out and restart the phone by holding volume down and power. This will take you to the bootloader. Then using the volume buttons scroll down to recovery and select using the power button.
Next you should get a screen with the red triangle on it. When you see this, hold volume up and press power. Then select wipe data factory resest. This will wipe all your data but ce la vie dude.
If this doesn't work you need to flash a pd98img.zip file from the bootloader. Get back to me and I'll help if needed. Good luck.

Don't restore. It won't work without soff and perm root. Factory reset the reboot. Does your phone reboot without trying to restore?

i dont have sdk and when i reboot it stays on the htc white screen and goes no further i have to remove battery and hold down and power to get to hboot and recovery from there takes me to cwm 3.0.0.5
Ok. So we need to flash on older clockwork. Email me and I'll reply with the files you need then I'll talk you through flashing the recovery from fastboot. You have the wrong version of clockwork. The one you have is for 2.3 based roms.

reboot recovery, factory reset, cache, dalvik (sometimes my bf tells me to do battery stats, boot, and of course cache) then i install the zip from my sd, let it do its thing, then reboot. works fine everytime. Im on CWM 5.0.2.2, but i never see any of the devs say "Hey you have to be on (whatever) for this to work properly.
PS your gonna be a life saver

Only thing I can think of is your not using amon ra. CWM is known to not wipe correctly and can lead to problems
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
this is what someone else told me to do, (i copied and pasted it) think hes right?
"Ok. I suggest using Rom manager to switch to amon ra recovery. Once you've done that, do a complete wipe ... Including cache, dalvik, boot, data, and system. Flash Rom. Allow 5 mins after initially screens before downloading apps and making changes. This allows the Rom to settle. After you've done that, you can move on with your setup. I would suggest staying away from Rom Manager, you won't need it.
MikG is the replacement to MikFroyo. I've never heard of a MikFroyo 5.x"

Well then fml. I trust your judgement, ive seen your posts etc...now i have a stupid question, wtf is amon ra? I looked on the market. Found 4. Which one is it, and then what should i do from there? Follow this dudes instructions?
Rom manager to switch to ra is right. But I prefer to do it manually. But the letting the rom 'settle' is dumb IMHO roms shouldnt have to settle only kernels do

got ya covered, let you know what happens.!! thank you so much!!!!!
Flash amon_RA style supersonic recovery v3.08 found in Dev section thru hboot, vol- and power while phone is off, first download the one with PC36IMG.zip in the name move it to the root of your SD card delete all of the name except PC36IMG.zip make sure there no extra .zip extension now boot to hboot(bootloader) by either powering off the phone or a battery pull the hold vol- and press and hold the power button holding both until the white hboot screen opens. Follow instructions to update recovery (volume up) then don't reboot when asked (volume down) now select recovery and press power to boot into recovery. Go to wipe and wipe everything from factory reset/data wipe all the way down to dalvik-cache, repeat atleast 3 times for each option then hit the back capacitive key to return to main menu (search key/magnifying glass works as the power button does) go to flash zip, navigate to your rom zip and select it, press the search key and then press it again to start the update, when finished updating press back button, go to reboot and press the search key wait til the rom boots, should now work without issue as long as your download is ok, if you are backing up apps in titanium backup restore the app only and no data restoring data can cause bootloops/random reboots after the app restore
