Hey guys
I've been trying to flash Incubus's new Sense 3.0 GB ROM, and I've been having some issues...
I've done a full data/cache wipe and a dalvik cache wipe, with both CWMR 3.0.0.8 and 3.0.0.7, and all it does is boot to the white 'HTC Incredible' and it's stuck there. I've tried flashing from AOSP 2.3.3 ROMs (both Cyanogen 7, The Ultimate Droid 3, and MIUI) and the leaked Sense 1.0 ROM and still nothing.
The longest I've waited at this screen is 30 minutes. Should I try using CWMR 2.5 or what?
Thanks,
Dragonice81
Anyone? I'm very frustrated

So I'm assuming no one knows what's wrong. That's great...
I just tried JoelZ9614's ROM
Same thing happened
Try updating your hboot

Well that's different. I wiped 4 times before flash and 2 times after flash with CWMR 2.5 and it went to the White screen, rebooted, went back to the white screen and then to recovery. That hasn't happened. Haha

FINALLY!!!
The sense 2.1 ROM worked!!!!!
It must just be an issue with Sense 3.0
With both TMartins and the sense 3.0 rom, I pulled the battery, and reflashed, but it takes a really long time. I'm pretty sure you just need to wait and be patient.
Im going to try to flash to a 3.0 ROM from 2.1
But I'm not in a hurry. Sense 2.1 is still pretty good

Okay, so I was trying to upgrade to the latest nightly for my mother, since she loves gingerbread now. So here is my issue, I know that I need clockwork mod 3.0 or higher to get the nightlies to work, I have gotten #14 to install with the old recovery she has on there now. But when I try to update the recovery it will either not upgrade or revert back to 2.5 upon reboot. For example:
If I try using fastboot to install, I get an error. I don't remember exact error, but its a long the lines of it can't install.
If I try using the PB31IMG.zip method, but it just detects the zip and wont install or anything.
If I install the recovery via the recovery, it will work for the one time it loads, then upon reboot it reverts to old one.
I tried installing the newest nightly with the old recovery, but it will just load and then soft boot and repeat forever till I pull battery.
I rooted the phone with the unrevokr root and recovery method, so I don't know if that has anything to do with my problems.
Any help would be appreciated.

Before you flash a new recovery with ROM Manager go into ROM manager settings and check the box to erase the old recovery before flashing the new one.
Then scroll to the bottom of the main ROM Manager menu and select all clockworkmod recoveries. Flash 3.0.0.8 since it has fixes for 3.0.0.5 issues.

Still not working, just does checking the zip and then goes back to hboot. I am going to try formating the internal memory, and put a copy on there and see if that does anything. Would having S-ON have anything to do with my problem?
Well I fixed it, was that I had S-On still enabled. I guess I'm so used to my nexus that I forgot that I needed that off to do that.

If you have an amoled device, CMW 3.0.0.7 is said to work better, however, if your device is slcd.. they say go with 3.0.0.8. Either way, make sure your sd card has a sufficient amount of space for your nand. From my experience with CWM, it doesn't always let you know if there isn't enough space if your only short by a few kbs.
Just asking cause I flashed the starburst rom and it boot looped my phone. I got into the main screen once but, the task bar kept force closing and it kept boot looping... Any help would be great.

Yes this is the Sprint Galaxy S2 Epic 4G Touch section.
Did you make a nandroid backup 1st? (If Yes, restore your backup) Did you go into "mounts and storage" and format "/system" before you wiped data/cache/dalvik cache?
Odin another rom.
Search for and download odin v1.85. Then download a .tar file. Where ever you find these items, you'll also find good instructions.
Then try flashing starburst again.

Yes, I did make a nand and got back to it, the starburst rom section told me to flash through cwm. But, it didn't work. I odined a tar last night, I'm fine now, but, how should I go about flashing again? Yes, I did wipe.

Did you format /system prior to flashing Starburst? That'll cause bootloops if you failed to do so.

I would suggest 5.0.2.3, or 5.0.2.6 Also...make sure you format cache/dalvik/data/system at least 3X each. If that doesn't work, then try redownloading the ROM. Might've gotten a borked download.

Use this: LoStkernel or this: CWM
But I'm willing to bet that you either didn't format system in the mounts and storage menu or it didn't take when you tried. I would retry StarBurst again first, making sure to Format System Under Mounts and Storage and making sure it succeeds. Then you won't have to worry about any of the other stuff.
Yeah, CWM can be quirky

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1276320
Hello all,
So I am an avid ROM flasher (I try at least 2 a week), and recently when I try to install Sense 3.0 or 3.5 ROMs I have an issue; The ROM flashes and boots up all nice and good, but the startup application that runs by default on a fresh install doesn't show up. All I get is the wallpaper and the notification bar w/ clock, battery etc. but thats it, I can't get passed this to any other screen . After all that the only way I can get back to recovery to flash a working ROM is through a battery pull.
Like I always do with new ROMs, I
nandroid
factory wipe/reset
wipe cache a few times
wipe dalvik cache a couple times
flash GruesomesWipeAll.zip
then flash ROM
The wierd part is that I can flash Stock Barebones just fine along with any other ICS ROM with no issues.
So I guess what im getting at is, is there im doing something wrong i.e. flashing or wiping?
PS. my SD is partitioned
PSS. the ROMs that arent working for me are
The Express
EnergyROM
And one other that I forgot

Some of us Inc2 owners r having issues with JB booting and/or extreme lag(cpu maxed out).
this is asking alot. could someone post up a BACKUP from twrp(preferred) or cwm recovery of a recent cm10 from aero of dkstunna? Preferable - a clean flash with gapps and have it boot, but not setup up gmail stuff. don't want your personal stuff. then do a backup and post it up if possible. I know this time consuming and a lot to ask for but there will b many thanks and might solve our problems.
