[Q] I have a rooted Evo and I was wondering if there were any tips someone can give me on installing custom themes? I found and downloaded a few that I like but every time I try to install them from recovery and it completes, it always gets stuck on the splash screen on reboot.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Are you wiping?
Are you sure you're using the right themes? By that, I mean, a theme meant for a different ROM than the one you're using?
Thanks for the info. I didn't wipe the first time. I got the phone to boot up but now butwhen it starts it says that the HTC launcher keeps failing. It just keeps going into a constant loop trying to restart itself. Do you know what this could be?
What ROM / Theme are you flashing?
Could try starting from scratch. Did you make a backup before all of this?
Could always restore nand and go from there. But what ROM / Theme.
Happened to me before, i just wiped everything, then cache, then dalvik cache. Then isntalling ROM, then once booted. when into recovery,cleared cache and dalvik cache and flashed theme, make sure theme is made for that rom
I was having trouble installing GAPPS in Cyanogenmod 7 stable and I then tried installing an older version. Now I'm stuck with the Cyanogen skateboard screen that then goes to the Google welcome to PC36100-Touch the Android to begin. With and without touching it it goes back to the skateboard screen and continues the rotation. Any help please?
Boot loop, how fun. Wipe and flash.
How do I wipe and flash? I can't get past the above described screens?
Go into recovery, wipe data, cache, dalvik cache reflash the rom, then the gapps. Reboot. If your still getting loops, your either flashing the wrong zips, didnt wipe rigjt, or your data is corrupted. Download it again.
Oops let me add make a nandroid backup cause all your data on the phone will be deleted. Use an app like my backup or titanium back up to save your apps if you want.
Thanks I'll give it a try.
When I flash a new rom I only flash one thing at a time. Ex. Nand backup ... wipe ... flash Rom ... reboot ... wipe cache/dalvik ... flash gapps ... reboot ... wipe cache/dalvik ... flash theme ... etc. I know it takes longer but for me it is worth it because if I get a problem like a boot loop I know which thing is causing it. May not be perfect, may not be right, but works well for me
I always flashed everything at once. Wipe data/cache/dalvik/ flash Cm/gapps then reboot. But yea that's good advice also if there is a problem, I never thought of that.
I haven't had any problems flashing the 7 Stable, but I'm finding it really hard to install the GAPPS. Any ideas or suggestions?
Make sure you have the most up-to-date Gapps

When you flash CM7 and you wipe data/cache/dalvik do all of your contacts and apps come back?

the contacts and your apps will redownload from the market when you log in to your google account assuming you had the backup checked in the settings.
Ok Great- Thanks for your help.
I did all that, and I still don't have GAPPS. And can't seem to add Google sync.

What rom were you coming from? What recovery are you using to flash and wipe? I may suggest flashing a format all zip before flashing the ROM. That will wipe your system and boot partition as well. Where are you getting stuck at? The splash screen or boot animation?
Format All, Install You Rom, wait for it too boot, then power down and install G-Apps afterwards if it hangs clear dalvik and cache

I am coming from the stock evo.
Was using the clockwork recovery.
I'm trying to put on savaged zen ROM.
I'm getting stuck at the boot loop after everything was wiped and then flashed.
thanks
just rooted tried to load theme (orange peel) after i did will not stop reboot ing what do i do to get it to load right
Was it compatible with your rom? Did you wipe cache and dalvik cache?
Reflash your rom to get out of the bootloop. Or restore from your nandroid backup, since everything everywhere tells you to do a backup before flashing, I know you did one.
Sent from my Evo + MIUI using Tapatalk!
no i didnt the instruction i waas going by didnt say anything about backup is there any thing i can do i did flash with supersuer again but reboots all the time still, i am very new didnt know to look to see if theme compatable thought if it was here it was guess i was wrong why will no one help me anyone in north carolina help please
I flashed CM7.1 and I'm stuck in a boot loop. I tried wipe cache partition, wipe date/factory reset, wiping dalvik cache and reflashing a different rom but still keep getting the boot loop. What else should I try doing to slove this ?
Could be kernel related, are you using an aosp and hopefully not a sense kernel? Need more info, what kernel, recovery are you using?
I'm using ClockworkMod recovery I'm not sure what kernel I using
Easy fix, recommend starting from new. wipe the entire phone in recovery at least 3 times, sd card also, backup sd card to computer if you need to via USb toggle, flash Cm 7.1, flash tiamat kernel, found in development section, reboot, good to go, nandroid once up and running, happy flashing
Thanks, okay I'm glad you said easy fix I'm not as worried now. I'm gonna follow your advice. Whats a roamer kernel ?
sorry swype acting weird, use tiamat kernel 4.1 something in development section
The FIRST Thing you should do is get rid of Clockwork Mod, and get Amon Ra, so you can wipe everything.
Just wiping Data/Cache/Dalvik when flashing a new ROM isn't enough.
Hey thanks again ! ! I followed your advice and got everything working again
