[Q] Big problem with Evo! - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay so yesterday I accidentally downloaded an old RUU and attempted to run it. I got an error in the middle of it and my phone was then stuck on a silver and black HTC screen. When I unplugged the USB it would take me to the Bootloader where it would then only say "RUU". Phone won't reboot or go into recovery. And one more small problem... The battery just died and wont charge. Would really appreciate some help. Thanks.

can I use " Okay so yesterday I accidentally downloaded an old RUU and attempted to run it." in my sig???
btw what hboot did you have before and what version ruu did you try and install?

Yes lmao.
Version 2.10, downloaded new one but having trouble doing it since battery died and not sure the phone will actually connect.

charge the battery some and see if the phone turns on, see if it will boot into recovery/rom etc

Ok, will try to charge battery, but from what i've tried, could not get in to recovery or get the bootloader to come up.

if you can not get anything on the screen and the phone won't mount the sdcard and adb won't connect, be prepared for a drive to the sprint store

Lmao, about the sig comment
Sent via the Slayer of "ALL" phones the Evo 4g.

Hahahaha ^^^ Anyways new info did get the phone to get a charge. But now cannot get it to connect to computer.

I've actually came across this on the HTC Hero CDMA. i accidentally installed the wrong hero rom, cause at the time i was a noob to the android. an i tried to ruu but it failed. i kept doing all i could and playing with it. but where u ruu got half way through. and debug mode/recovery is reset by half way through.
only thing you can do is try to get into Hboot mode and try to see if u can connect to usb that way. then try to ruu

what does the phone do when you turn it on normal?
will it boot into bootloader?
do you have android sdk on your computer?

Just go's back to the "Silver and black HTC screen" and if I pull the USB (when in my computer) It will show me an option in the bootloader thats says RUU thats it. Can't do anything from there.

If you can get into the bootloader your going to be just fine. Use the fastboot option in the bootloader to get your phone to connect to your computer, I have done this numerous times to unroot! You might have to reboot your computer just to refresh the connection etc and also reboot the bootloader a few times from that fastboot menu before running the RUU on the computer.

Does not give me fastboot option. Like I said can't do anything from there.

So you can get into bootloader but it doesn't give you a fastboot option?

Yeah. It only says RUU that is the only thing in the bootloader. But it does give me info on my Hboot version and stuff.

Okay, you have to get into the fastboot option and then run the RUU. Sorry I am having some trouble understanding because you are being a little vague. But to get into fastboot it has to be done before you run the RUU.

Don't worry about it. Anyways. I cannot get into bootloader at all unless I unplug the USB.

So maybe your SD card is mounted or is the RUU running on your computer as we speak?

Don't think RUU is running but should I try pulling the SD?

No you shouldnt need to pull the SD. But I would try rebooting your computer and maybe your phone and get into the bootloader without it connected to your computer. Then connect it and go into fastboot and try what i described earlier.

HERO Update

I download the RUU Rom link and ran it. I have the phone connected, but when I try to do the update it says my phone is not connected. Anyone have any ideas?
First suggestion would be not to use the RUU as from what I've seen it updates HBOOT which seems to restrict things going forward .
modaco's 2.2 rom is basically a rooted rom from the RUU you can also get the updated radio from his site too without updating HBOOT.
Both the radio and the rom are in a nice update.zip format which is easy to use but you do need to backup contacts stored on the phone and sms etc as it does require a wipe. (the again I believe the RUU dies this too anyway).

Try to start it from the fastboot. Switch of the phone. Turn it on again holding the back, and on/off button till you see the 'fastboot' screen. Then connect the phone with the PC and wait till the drivers are loaded and you see in the screen 'fastboot usb'. Then run RUU****.exe again.
That worked on my Vista Ultimate 64bits machine.

[Q] I think I messed up manual update, please help

Hi all,
My OTA update kept failing so I attempted a manual update to 4.04.
I missed updating the boot.img file. I did the system, recovery and radio then relocked the bootloader.
When I turn it on, it stays on the google splash screen. When I go into bootloader mode and try recovery mode, I get the red triangle. My computer does not seem to be recognizing the phone, I get the error: device not found.
Is there something I might try?
Thanks in advance

In fastboot mode (obviously), unlock the bootloader, flash the boot image, and leave the bootloader unlocked. Done.
Thanks for the quick repy efrant! A big question is how do I unlock the bootloader if my computer doesn't recognize the phone. I am getting "device not found" so I seem to be unable to unlock the bootloader in the first place.

So your GNex is booted in fastboot mode and your computer does not recognize it? If this is the case, it is likely a driver issue, and you should re-install.
It is normal that your GNex is not recognized by your computer when booted not in fastboot mode, when you can't boot.

Hey efrant ^^ I'll sort it out ^^ (if you don't mind)
Dude, chec my sig, all the drivers and tutorials needed, can be found in the Win8 thread.
Follow that tut. then the phone should be recognized. Then erase the phone With:
Code:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
This ensures, that the flash is successful. If you don't erase first, it's likely, that the phone won't correctly write the files.
Then flash the files, with these codes:
Code:
fastboot flash boot (Always do this first) <Fille directory\file name.img>
fastboot flash system <Fille directory\file name.img>
fastboot flash recovery <Fille directory\file name.img>
DO NOT ERASE/FLASH userdata!! Do that, and you WILL lose ALL of your data!
If you want, I can help you, with tamviewer. I've helped a few people, this way It has always worked
Normally it does recognize the phone, but it doesn't seem to since I messed this up. I will try to re-install the drivers to see if that works. It is in fastboot mode, I hear the tone from the computer that something has connected when I reboot the fastboot, but it doesn't get recognized.

Go into the dev manager, and look for: Android 1.0
If you see that, then Update devuice drivers -> Select from a list -> Samsung ADB Interface
That should do the trick

ok...if you press power + volume up you will never get to hboot...it's volume + power down.
To get the cid number, just boot in hboot, choose fastboot and plug the phone until you see fastboot usb in red. Then open a cmd in the pc and type fastboot getvar all. INFOcidnum is the information u need to get the ruu,

While using the ace hack dont install HTC sync use the drivers given in "*\tools\windrivers" folder
Most importantly Do not connect your computer to the internet As the driver manager checks for the latest drivers in microsoft website.. I was stuck there for a long time but nothing happened..
when ur not connected to internet it will take the drivers of "Android 1" which is already installed by installing "HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe" from "*\tools\windrivers" folder.
Comin back the boot screen. Only HTC was visible on the screen after rooting but started the Ace hack again which removed this problem
You'll have a more successful ROOT if you use Ubuntu or a Ubuntu Live CD as I assume your using Windows right ? I used Ubuntu and rooted first time with no problems.
Thanks very

i was in the exact same situation. All you have to do is connect your phone to your pc while its stuck on ''HTC'' boot screen. Wait for like a minute then use cmd and write 'adb reboot bootloader'. You should be able to fix it yourself from there
EDIT: doesnt work once bootloader is unlocked T_T im stuck on the white screen again...

Okay well u can relock the bootloader and run a ruu on Windows. Or u can go to recovery and go to install there you will see adb sideload u plug your phone to usb and adb sideload the Rom.
If your on Windows you probably got a adb/fastboot folder so put the zip u want to flash in there and open command prompt and type adb sideload thezipsname.zip. It's easier than completely wiping everything with ruu.
Let me know how it goes.

If your on Windows you probably got a adb/fastboot folder so put the zip u want to flash in there and open command prompt and type adb sideload thezipsname.zip. It's easier than completely wiping everything with ruu.
Let me know how it goes.

What recovery are you using?
Did u lock it or it does not recognize it now that you tried adb sideload?
Do u have a Rom on sdcard?
Are you willing to lose all your data?
Also Windows or Linux?
It can be fixed don't worry. It really can't be that bad.

You can try to wipe and install one of the roms from recovery.
But your computer should see the phone if u put it in bootloader mode once there plug it in and type fastboot devices. It should show up. On the phone you should see it say fastboot usb. If u don't see that push the power button and then you should see it.
Also if HTC sync is installed uninstall it.
Let me know

Put your phone in bootloader mode and plug usb in then just run ruu.exe and go through the steps. Basically just check the boxes and click next.
It should take about ten minutes.

It's supposed to go to a screen and show progress bar.
Then it will reboot into ruu mode a black screen with HTC logo and a progress bar.
Does the bootloader screen say fastboot usb in red? If not push the power button.
Just rerun ruu and try again.

Try running ruu again it seems like it's not executing properly.
Make sure to run as administrator.
