Hello All,
I fear I may have bricked my phone.
After installing the G2-Fast Kernel, my phone constantly resets itself to the HTC logo screen, goes black as if to load the OS, then resets itself again.
Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know how to boot into recovery? I can't seem to find any info on how to do this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Nevermind. I just installed Baconbits and I got my phone back up and running again.

Macarony,
No Sense ROM. I was just running a the stock ROM and I had it OC'd to 1.4ghz, but I decided I wanted to give the 1.9ghz a shot, but it just made my phone power cycle incessantly.
I'm a bit of a newb when it comes to all this flashing/modding/rooting/romming, so I wasn't 100% as to what I was doing
Do you have any suggestions in terms of which custom ROMs I might want to install?

I was running fresh as my rom. I then wanted to try Synergy as my new ROM. It installs, but when i reboot, it will just stay lock on the "HTC Evo 4G" splash screen.
I even try to reload the fresh rom and others as well, but nothing. I can get into the recovery screen fine, but nothing wants to work once i install a rom and reboot. please help and thanks in advance.

well sorry to say you wasted a day you could have been having fun flashing, because that link took about half a second to find after the 2 seconds it took to type "can't boot past splash"

Make sure you're using amon_ra recovery as clockwork doesn't play well with synergy. Also make sure to wipe everything 3x.

OK i installed amon_ra recivery and that worked fine. I also wipe everything 3x as you said; however, when i try to install the rom, it installs. When i reboot it, it will stay stuck on the splash screen.
If you're trying to install Synergy RC2 Godmode, you might want to try just regular Synergy RC2, the Godmode version has been hit and miss for a few people.
I haven't been following the Synergy thread for a few weeks, but last I DID read, didn't the Godmode version supposedly take like 45 mins to boot or something like that?

I would leave it for 20 min every time i try it. I also try different roms, and they still do the same thing and get lock on the splash screen.
My brother has a Evo also and his took 5 min to get out of the splash screen.

UPDATE****
OMG it is working now!!!! however i am using Fresh. Why wont Synergy work?? any ideas?
I don't know, but, tbh, try MikG. It's really almost the same thing as Synergy. Very few real differences and I had better performance with MikG than I did Synergy

As for synergy and other 3.0 roms, it can go up to 8 minutes on the splash screen, due to the size of the rom and re-building the cache.

Hey,
does it happen while running normally or while booting up?
I guess it's important to know what ROM you are using ... maybe you got something wrong while flashing your phone ...

Probably a hardware issue, you need to send it to htc for repair , so go baxk to stock

Flash back to a stock Rom first and see if it still reboots.

Basic case of motherboard problem. Go back to stock and send it to HTC for repairs and they will change your motherboard.
Hello. I have a problem with flashing roms. First of all, i do everything like it should be done. I know because i have android for 2 years now.
The problem is. Every time i flash a OC kernel "sense" rom, my device cant bootup. At first, it just get stuck at the htc logo. Then if i try to start up again, i get to the set up. And it just get stuck again. Sometimes i am even fast enough to skip setup and try to lower the cpu clock. I even get there but it just freeze again. Min-two max! Now, i am currently running Cm7 and on 768mhz(806 freeze sometimes). Working great. But its just not as "good" as htc made sense is. Ive tried every rom there is, and...yeah...you get the point...
I contacked a few of ppl that made those roms, but they all say "i cant help you" at the end of conversation...
I think there are few other people with the same issue. So, you will not be just helping me.
Sorry if i made some grramar mistakes i am not British...
Htc wfs EU s-ON. Unlocked bootloader.
Thanks for your help! Cheers

You could try flash a sense rom, followed by a stock kernel before booting. This should be stable but it means that you will loose support for the additional features they add. I think m1nd******* has a patch for his rom that makes it only clock to stock speed, could be worth trying
Thanks

Ok, i did that. Its working. Now, i saw i can oc manually after this. Do i have to disable no-frills first? Now is 120-600 smass2.
And, thanks, its working. But only this rom... This is sad. And if devs put their rom to startup with 600, will it mean that i can boot it? Then its really bad for me they put 806 as stock, im guessing im not the only one with this problem. Just put 600 as stock, after you can set cpu as u like/need... Just a though...
need newbie here.......................
We're going to need some more info. Which ROM? Which recovery? Have you noticed the problem before on another ROM? Is this your first ROM? Full wipe?

I'm having a very difficult time understanding your writing style and need to clarify.
So far as I understand, you originally had Venom ICS flashed from the latest 4ext. After a few days or a week, half of the screen began flickering. I believe you then rerooted the phone? Then you full wiped (so that's system, data, and cache). You then flashed JellyTime R29 from CWM 5.0.37. The problem showed back up after a few days or a week again. Is that accurate?
Have you flashed any other ROMs? Has the phone been dropped or taken any other damage? Have you tried flashing a stock ROM? Have you had any ROMs on which the problem didn't show up? Did you have this problem on stock before rooting?

Assuming you did a full wipe of system, data and cache I can only guess that it's a hardware problem. It persists across multiple ROMs, so that's my guess. See if anyone else has a suggestion.

Wait, you didn't say that before. Have you messed with the auto brightness settings before? Try turning it off; is it still a problem? When you say flickering do you mean the back light? Or graphical glitches? Or something else?

The persistence across ROMs (and I'm assuming that you haven't messed with settings) suggests that it's probably a graphics hardware issue. I vaguely remember someone else having this problem but can't remember who; I'll ask around. Unfortunately I'm not from the Philippines, so I don't know where you can get it repaired.
I think gizmoe knows the answer to this one.

You can private message him here on the forums. His username is Gizmoe.
You can also search for the answer in the dhd and inspire forums, to see if it shows up.
I'm guessing gizmoe may not know the answer since he would have surely posted something in this thread by now. I may be wrong about that as I may also be wrong about him knowing the answer.
