Need help, cant get into bootloader in kingsrom - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay, so im running kingsrom unleashed 4g, and its great i love it. Tired to flash another rom today, elite III. Preformed backup, flashed format_all zip first then was gonna flash elite III next like it states. But now after flashing format_all zip it restarted the phone and now its back to kingrom and its in safe mood. For some odd reason its not letting me load into bootloader so i can flash the next step. And whats really ticking me off is that rommanager is not working. Ive installed and uninstalled countless times and it wont let me open. Does it have to due with being in safe mood. Please help me , need someone to fill me in. Thanks for you time.

I'm confused in regard to your post. Anyway, to get to the bootloader, power off your device. Now simultaneously press the DOWN volume button and the power button until your device starts. After a short pause, a few lines of text will scroll across the screen and then you'll be shown a set of options. Viola, you're at the bootloader screen.

Thats what ive been trying to do for the last hour, i know how to get there. The problem here is that it wont load up, it just starts up once i let go of the power button.

I feel like a broken record: STOP USING ****ING ROM MANAGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Flash your **** in ****ing RECOVERY like it was designed for.....
10,000 posts about problem flashing ROMS on here, and 9,990 of them were because someone was using ROM manager
Now, I KNOW people are going post that ROM Manager works fine for them, well great! Welcome to the minority.....

Take a breather. And I feel like the problem is from him not disabling the function in applications/development that enables the 'fast' reboot.

okay..., looks like i learned the hard way, time to get up and learn from my mistakes. But do you know how i get out of this pickle?

When you do vol-down/power, you don't get to bootloader? What does your phone do?

Nothing at all. Then after mmm 45 seconds of holding it down i let go, it boots up, quickly too. Im not sure if its because of Kingsrom or what ( on the fast boot that is).

What about fastboot? (Vol up/Power)?
I'm no expert here, but I think you may want to try running the RUU form your PC if that doesn't work, go back to stock and start over. I'm sure someone will come up wit ha better option, but if it was me, that's what I would do.

Never a problem. And you can still use rom manager to fix permissions, if you get a whole bunch of force closes on apps for no reason.

Unrooting :'( which way?

Seeing as how my phone probably has hardware issue making income volume not hear-able at ALL as if it was on mute, I will order a replacement.
Which would be the best way to un-root?

just put the eng zip from the champions build into your sd card, wait for it to tell you if you which to update via recovery, choose yes by pressing volume up I believe, then wait... reboot when it tells you if you which to reboot, then thats all I did that around like.. 6 days for my replacement no need to push the files or anything.

Cuz there is this that sounds just like what you're saying..
Ive Decided to Post the Factory Rom due to Request & I've already saw one or two Problems from the Phone so far, and thought it would be a good idea to give everyone the Option to go back to Stock!!
Just Rename > ESPRIMG(2).zip
to ESPRIMG.zip & place on the Root of your Sdcard..
1.
Power Off the Phone either by Power Down / Battery Pull..
2.
Hold Volume Down + Power Button..
3.
Walk away, get a soda / Give the Better half a Kiss or two
4.
Hit the Volume Up key to Confirm to Flash.
Once Done you will have a Stock Espresso Phone again..

You got misinformed by a post further up. You flash this via HBOOT, not recovery. Boot into hboot by pressing vol down + power. Then it will prompt you to flash.

[TEMP] [FIX] Charging phone with phone off.

resolved. Close thread
Shaquiel Harris said:
Thanks to tnpapadakos for the info. to fix the charging phone with phone off auto boot to recovery issue all we have to do is use the 2.5.1.4 recovery. then you could always flash back to the latest clockwork recovery when you dont need this one anymore but can go back to the other one when you wanna charge with the phone off.
You could either flash it or put it in your sdcard in clockworkMOD/download/mirror.kanged.net/recoveries for easier access to flash from Rom manager. Make sure its named recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.4-vision once its there when you go to ROM managerr and go to all clockwork recoveries, you can flash that recovery without getting an Error! or rename it to recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.3-vision and flash it through that option.
Now does anyone still have that recovery? We can't get it from the ROM manager because you will get an ERROR. if anyone has it, post it here and ill add it here for everyone to get.

Also... what good does it do you to give you what you want? It's more helpful if we show you how to get there instead... teach a man to fish, right?

Here guys... wasn't too difficult for me to find, even with the search being down...
damien667 said:
Its not a kernel patch, its a init.rc service than runs before recovery that reads the kernel command line for the offmode_charging variable... if it sees it it stops recovery from starting (even though you are in fact already booted into the recovery system) and starts a keypressing service (to reboot phone into regular boot mode when power button is pressed) and also the battery charging service that is supposed to display the battery icon charging animation (which doesn't work in cwm)... those services (binaries) were grabbed from the OTA recovery... if you read my previous posts, you would know.

Help Needed. Need to get back to Rooted 2.2 or 2.3

Hey guys. I have a problem and not sure how to go about this. My Evo was at 2.2 rooted for a long while and all of a sudden it started acting up. It would always freeze and had to be rebooted constantly. So I had a back that I went back to successfully but it is at 2.1 now (Baseband 2.15.00.09.01)
Now I'm not getting the OTA update to 2.2. I go into HTC software update and it says no available updates for my phone.
So how do I get to 2.2 or 2.3 rooted?
FYI after going into bootlaoder and choosing Recovery, I get Clockworkmod Recovery. Is this normal?
You need to flash the stock rooted ROM for the latest OTA update. I would suggest trying out some different Roms, though. That's the best part of rooting.
And ClockworkMod is the most popular recovery for the Evo, so yeah that's probably right.

It's pretty easy actually. Once you have root again (if you don't already), go to http://mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=supersonic and download either the newest nighly (30) or RC2 to your memory card.
Boot into Clockwork and go to backup and restore, and choose nandroid backup or backup (I'm not using clockwork, so I don't know the exact verbiage). Once the backup is complete, do a full system wipe by clicking on wipe data/factory reset.
Once that is done, choose install zip from sdcard, scroll down to cm_supersonic_full-30.zip and select it. It will install and then ask you to reboot. Go ahead and reboot.
Once your phone is up and running again, you'll want to get back into recovery so that you can flash GoogleApps, which you can find here: http://goo-inside.me/gapps/latest/7/universal/.
You'll flash these just like you did CyanogenMod 7 a minute ago, although you will want to wipe your cache and dalvik cache (which is located under "advanced" in the Clockwork menu) first.
All you have to do then is boot back up, go through the walkthrough to set up your google account, and then you'll be running (close to) stock Gingerbread 2.3.
If you need any help, feel free to ask.

Many recommend wiping data/factory reset (which I know was suggested and you've done), but also cache and dalvik BEFORE flashing any new ROM. Also, with CM, is it not suggested that you use Format_All?

Your best bet is to use YouMail, which is free in the market. It's a lot like Sprint's Visual VoiceMail that you have on Sense roms, but with more features. I use it, and I love it.

Re-flash to EC05?

Sorry if this isn't in the right forum, I'm fairly new here. Anyways, ever since EC05 was installed on my phone a few days ago, I've been having nothing but problems. AFter it first installed, the phone would freeze about every 5 seconds, then vibrate a few times and restart itself. After numerous resets, it finally started working. Then my ringers went bad, and my text messages do not go through. Various apps force close, and my phone dialer freezes up when trying to call someone.
Is there any way to re-flash the EC05? I'm thinking I just had a bad flash, since my girlfriend has the same phone and hers is fine. If there is, can you guys please tell me how to do it (preferably without data loss).
Thank You.
I forgot, I'm on stock rom and not rooted.

Do I have to Odin back to Dl18? Or can I just reflash it over EC05? And do you know if my phone will be wiped? Sorry for all of the questions...

No problem; I believe the update.zip doesn't wipe.
You shouldn't have to go back to install it.
You can always use MyBackup Pro (in the market) its free for like 30 days, to backup your apps and data, call log and text messages.
Then you can get it all back if it does (though I don't think it will), never a bad thing to run a backup.

Wow, thank you so much. You've answered all of my questions, and even given me an option on how to backup. Thank you so much, you've been more help than the Sprint reps.

LiveBoot by Chainfire

So I was thinking last night about this app that I used to have and use that allowed you to show logcat/dmesg as your boot animation and after a quick Google search I finally found it!
Here is the link if anyone is interested.

Looks amazing on the OP6T. ??

I tried it, but it just hangs while trying to load resources. I think I'm just unlucky lol
I installed it but got a boot loop. I could only start the phone by flashing latest oos without magisk but even after uninstalling live boot, magisk still kept the liveboot00001 file or whatever so I had to remove it manually in twrp in /data/adb/magisk/ (somewhere around there.. ) Just in case someone else has this problem..
No problem here, using it since 4 weeks, several OOS updates never had an issue

It sure does! Thanks for the share. Works great on beta 2, even though I have the McLaren Magisk mod running (which replaces boot animation with McLaren's).
Installed it on a Oneplus 6. Bootlooped immediatly after the next restart. I already deleted the file located in /data/adb/magisk/post-fs but it still doesnt boot properly.
What can i do? I also tried uninstall Magisk via TWRP and using an unpatched boot image. Nothing works.

That's weird that it doesn't work for you. All I did was open the app, grant su access and rebooted and it worked. Magisk v18 user.

It worked for my on my 6T running 9.0.11.
I'd like something a little less verbose so you can actually read some stuff as it goes by.

Just change the lines of code that are shown on screen, I haven't tried it but I'm sure that would help. I'm not really worried about reading anything, if I wanted to do that, I'd just pull a log. It's more of an asthetic kind of thing.

I don't really want to read it.
I want it to scroll by slower so it looks a bit more convincing when it boots.

Did changing the lines of code displayed on screen work at all? Not sure of any other way to slow it down. Seeing how an OS is thousands of lines of code. Seemed pretty convincing to a few coworkers of mine.

I didn't change it. No real incentive right now.
This app was my old favorite and I miss it, I hope it still works as I havnt tried... Just wanted you all to know this is the best app ever and the scrolling text (if your developing) is actually SUPER helpful... I remember I would use the filter to find specific debug lines only and it was so usefull... I only installed it because Im a huge nerd so it was an extra awesomeness to have it be super usefull!
2023 BEST APP EVER!#[email protected]#
