Hey guys i finally got a working dinc (apparently they lied about letting me get a different handset because htc has never reported random reboots as an issue), and rooted and dropped jagerrom on it just to try it. and I dont like it, at all. So i wanna go back to senseless rEVOlution, but no matter what i try it just wont flash. I've tried changing roms and going from there, doing it through rom manager, doing it through recovery, even un/re-rooting and everything. I just want a rom that i like so tired of phone problems zzz
What do you mean it won't flash? Are you getting an error message? Is the install going through but it does nothing? Can you be a bit more specific?
Ummm if I try it straight through recovery it just says install can not be completed and another line, I'd have to try it to check. If I go through rom manager the install seems to go fine but then it boots back into jager ROM

Go back to 2.5.1.2. 3.0.0.5 had a bunch of issues/problems. This is probably one of the reasons that nothing is happening after you flash it. Revert to 2.5.1.2, wipe, then flash the rom you want. Everything should be good after that.
Then if you want, you can upgrade it to 3.0.0.8, I haven't heard of any problems with that one.
kk sweet ill do that.
PS does battery level matter when flashing stuff? a friend told me that if u flash on anything besides full it'll mess with your battery life

No, it doesn't matter, just don't do it when the battery level is low. You don't want the phone to power off in the middle of flashing a rom, that makes your phone a nice paperweight.
ah okay sweet. apparently something about senseless revolution wont let me flash with 3.X.X.X recovery. said something about a script not being compatible with gingerbread recoveries.
and apparently apply sdcard/update.zip didnt flash the new recovery, hmm. oh well ill figure it out.
are there any ACTUAL gingerbread roms for the dINC and not just themeed ones? all the ones I see say GB but then in the topic it just is like "Themed gingerbread whatever"

Just reflash the recovery through rom manager. Just scroll to the bottom, All ClockworkMod Recoveries, and pick 2.5.1.2.
For GB CM7 is basically a stock GB rom with a bunch of customizations that you can choose to make. Its the most stable GB rom right now IMO.
The lowest it has is 3.0.0.2 and doesnt let me scroll

Wrong section, but which recovery are you using? Clockwork, or Amon-Ra? And which version of Amon-Ra are you using (if thats your recovery).
Check the md5 sum

I really dont know much about rooting just learned how but this is what i been doing.
I hold down the volume button down the power then hit recovery, Wipe everything out, then go to SD card click the rom hit yes to install then it starts then is says abort.
Thanks for the help
if you are on clockwork 3.0.0.x then install 2.6.x.x. I know that 3.0 version has issues. but yeah that is if you are on clockwork.

These guys pretty much summed it up for ya bud, hope you got things figured out. Figuring out which recovery you are on would be the best place to start. If you are using AmonRA, try the toggle signature verification option assuming it is the newest Amon.

You need to wait for it to load, if you just flashed it may take a little bit of time to boot up.

Mine did the same thing when I first flashed it. I tried and let it boot for like 20 mins and still nothing. A cpl of battery pulls and tries again and still nothing. I RUU'ed it and then re-rooted it using HTC EVO - Universal Auto Root ~~~ v2.0. Then I retired it and everything worked out after that. If I were you I would RUU it back, re-root it and then just wait till RLS5 comes out tomorrow/today....But hey you can do what you want...It worked for me. I thought I messed up my phone. Mine wouldn't do anything and I couldn't flash anything right. Also ensure you are using the Amon_RA V2.2, If you re-root it it will come with RA V2.1.1, its easy to update it via his thread and terminal. Hang in there
use RA Recovery 2.1.1 and toggle signature verification off, but do a nand backup before.. and then clear cache as well as dalvik cache.. if that doesnt work then you might not have hboot s-off. also check they platform and make sure that your not going from a 3.70 to a 3.6etc. cuz the new platform is 3.70 and he is working on rls 5 that will be updated to that...
Make sure your on the old radio's and PRI otherwise it won't work. Myn's ROMs are still not updated to work on the new radios.

yn's RSL4 does work with the radio update, what you have to do is flash Myns...once you done that get a differant kernel and all is good. That is what i had to do and it works great.
Thread moved to Q&A.
Are you installing anything else at the same time that you flash the rom? In other words, are you trying to get mods in before you boot for the first time (transparent title bar, hulu, etc)? It has happened to me that if I try to do too many things at once, I have to flash the rom over again.
I use RSL4 with the updated radio and it works great. Cant wait for the update.

Hi all,
I'm encounter a issue related to thedude00's problem. Please help~ I'll try to provide as much information as possible.
I have the earlier EVO 4G (Supersonic EVT2-3 ENG S-OFF);
HBOOT-0.76.2000 (PC3610000);
Radio-2.15.00.11.19
I am trying to do a clean flash (wipe-factory reset/cashe/delvik) of the new Warm 2.2 RLS 5. I put it under my SDCard and keeping the file name as it is... when I try to flash it, it says I cannot verify because it says:
"E:Missing file: sdcard/Warm_2.2_Optional1/Sprint_Qik.apk
E:Verification Failed
Zip verification failed!"
and the installation aborts. -- Oh and I have that Warm Optional1 folder there, and Sprint_Qik.apk IS there! I don't know why this can't find it...
Then I disable signature verification; it would go through and install... But after reboot, I get the boot screen (HTC EVO 4G, white screen) for a long time and just won't load.
**** UPDATE ****
I figured out my issue; kind of a false alarm.
So I didn't realize that someone ported this ROM from EVO to Incredible... so when I use Google to search just "warm twopointtwo RLS5", it automatically brought me to the Incredible page (which looks exactly the same as EVO). So I found the EVO version of the RLS5, and it installed through even with verification!
Again, sorry for the false alarm if I caused any. But at least here is a reference. Make sure you are downloading the right ROM for your phone; there's a Warm 2.2 for Incredible now.
So I'm tying to flash Incredibly Re-Engineered and I know you have to have a lower updated version of cwm. I tried to manually downgrade trough Rom manager but when I try to it says that I can not. Can anyone show or tell me how to? And does anyone know which version I should use? I would post this directly to the Incredibly Re-Engineered page but as a new member I can not. Anything helps

I believe its a PB32IMG.zip to flash through HBOOT, just google PB32IMG.zip 2.5.1.2 and it should pull something up. I'm pretty sure that's how it should go. If not, consider this a bump, and I'm sorry lol.

I also wasn't able to find a PB32IMG.zip cwm 2.5.1.2 recovery, but maybe I just didn't look hard enough. If anyone could provide any link/instructions for how to get my old recovery back it would be very much appreciated!

I wasn't trying to insult your intelligence and I understand the issue you are trying to resolve. If I recall correctly it is caused by the boot partition not being wiped. This does not cause an issue when switching from 2.2 rom to 2.2 rom because kernels are specific to the version of android (and sometimes other system elements such as sense / asop). And again, if I recall correctly, the "wipe all" command on many older recoveries did not wipe the boot partition, or wipe it completely so when you go to boot your 2.3 system with a 2.2 kernel it doesn't work and you get a boot loop. Hence my question & suggestion. Best of luck finding a fix.
please update your radio to one of the ones that came with gingerbread and try again..remember the safer way to update radios is through bootloader and not recovery...and remember the phone will reboot during the update, do not touch the phone until it reboots a second time or you may brick it..
Okay here is what I did to get GB, on my (evo tester phone)
1) booted the evo into recovery
2) factory reset 2x
3) ran VR_SUPERWIPE 2x
4) then I ran, SNS SUPER WIPE 2x, still could not run 2.3 GB at all!!, trying all kind of things for a little over a week.
5) Went through my files, found an old RUU. (RUU_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.26.651.6_Radio_2.15.00.07.28_NV_1.71_003_release_147044_signed) THIS IS THE ON YOU HAVE TO PLUG THE EVO INTO THE COMPUTER TO RUN.
6) Booted the evo into bootloader, then ran the RUU.
7) REBOOTED PHONE,… okay looks like stock,
8) Rebooted to bootloader s-off, is now s-on…. Dayum
9) I said F**K IT… repeated steps 1-3, then ran (deo_4.54.651.1)
10) This is the same rom I tried to install all week, now it install, verified, the version, guess what. 2.3.3.. wtf
11) I then installed, GW (signed_Team-Nocturnal_Stock_RLS.02).. (it also restored my custom splash screen)
12) IT INSTALLED NO PROBLEM… WTF…
13) STILL WITH SUPER USER PRIVIELGES
14) How is this possible with s-on
Like ca1ne said. I am 99% sure your issue is outdated radios. Update those then flash a gingerbread Rom, preferably one based on the ota 4.54.

Flashing the regular synergy rom is done just how you flash ANY rom, put the rom zip on your sd card, reboot to recovery, make a Nandroid backup, wipe everything, and flash.
If you are wanting to try God Mode however, that is completely different, you need to follow the directions on the SYnergy thread very carefully.

Again, the Synergy thread has all the info you need. However, if you are this much of a noob, you might just want to try flashing the regular Synergy rom first. No offense, we were all noob's at one point, but God Mode is pretty complicated to get working correctly for someone who is still learning.
You flash synergy + godmode the same way you flash the regular synergy ROM. There is nothing complicated about it.

What OP wrote applies to me as well. I am looking for something better than aerovan's CM9 (which has been my DD), and thought I would give Viper a try. Without fail, bootlooping (which I could have guessed since I did tacoroot and this seems to be an issue with sense based roms).
That said, I tried steps 1 through 4 and the bootlooping stopped in Viper - it goes through startup and just shuts down before leaving the boot screen. One strange thing that I noticed is that the ICS Firmware/radio with Viper (which I loaded in CWM), wouldn't load in 4ext. Maybe I'll give paranoid a go if I can't resolve this bootlooping issue in Viper! I hope OP has better luck.
U don't flash radio in cwm..look for a how to.. can't explain I'm working sry
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda app-developers app
I'm not as knowledgeable as Chilly, but a thought did occur to me. if the cm9 rom included a kernel on the flash and then you went to a sense based rom that didn't include a kernel that could cause a problem. I believe that I read that cm using a kernel that is asop based while sense roms use a different based kernel. You may check to see what kernel you have and then check for the recomended kernel for that rom and flash that kernel. don't forget to wipe.

All of the roms come with a kernel for our phone, but certainly, don't flash a sense kernel with aosp or vice versa after rom flash. Chilly is right. Flashing a newer radio should fix the problem and the radio is flashed with a PG32IMG.zip in the bootloader, not in the recovery.

Good call. When chilly said you don't flash kernels in recovery I hit my head. I flashed the radio, but now my challenge is getting back into recovery since I renamed the file and bootloader always finds it and wants to reboot or I load CM9 which stays on flash screen. I'll figure something out, maybe with adb. Thanks.
Power down, pop the sd out, boot to recovery, rename file, profit.

i made a stupid mistake of flashing radio in recovery, in fact the radio is for Samsung at&t and now my phone vibrates it doesnt show htc quietly brilliant, only vibrates and orange light with black screen untill i pull out the battery... i was able to return to stuck and it can only boot if its connected to power, it doesn't read sd card while android is booted and in recovery to, only in bootloader it reads sd... error in mounting if i try to... i flashed RUU.exe 2.3.3 and 2 other RUUs for my droid inc 2 but it keeps vibrating... please help me!!! thanks
I made the same mistake when i first gained s-off for my dinc2. the thing with the venom rom tho is if you ever want to go back to aosp ull need to gets chill's anti-venom zip and flash it through recovery because doing a normal wipe wont do the trick. also a helpful trick that worked for me with roms if i ever start getting boot loops i go into recovery from the bootloader menu and i wipe the dalvik cache under advanced and then wipe the chache under mounts and storage and it always works like a charm for me. but ive also learned that you have to be careful which kernel you flash with the rom of your choice because not only will it cause lags if you happen to get past the boot animation to the main screen but in some cases it can cause breaks in your framework like your wifi data etc. im not an expert tho those are just suggestions that im familiar with because theyve already happened to me before. hope this helps in any way.
