so i cant actually post in the cyanogen board for some reason.
I have recently installed the CM 7.0.3.1 on my evo and loved it... for a bit.
The first time i did it, at one point it stopped sending my text messages. When i went to reboot it got stuck on the load screen.
So after a very annoying day i just wiped and reflashed the rom (yesterday). TODAY, the same thing happened. I dont know what to do!! I love this rom but it's just giving me problems that take up too much of my time. I dont want to reflash a rom every single day.
Herrp!
If ur using clockwork try switching to amon_RA. I have heard of issues with cwm. Personally I have used cwm and cm7 without problems fyi. Just a suggestion from 1 noob 2 another. Maybe a pro could add 2 cents??
thanks! i'll try that later today. i was finally able to post in the cm thread we'll see what they have to say
Every phone is different and a rom that works great on my phone might be very buggy on yours. I for one don't use cm stable because they seem to have a lot of problems on my EVO. However I am on cm7 nightlie 81 and it has been working fine for about a week or so. No problems with anything. Might be worth a flash or two to find one that works for you. I would definitely switch over to amon also. No offense Koush!!!

how do you switch from clockwork mod to aman ra?

The easiest way is to go into rom manager and select flash alternate recovery. You can also download amon RA to the root of your SD card and use the following terminal commands :
su (press enter)
flash_image recovery/sdcard/(the exact name of recovery that you put on your sdcard).img (press enter)
Reboot into recovery to make sure it was successful!

I have been reading people saying that clockwork recovery doesn't wipe cache right and some other stuff. I am also starting to see ROM developers even mention this in their posted ROM's.
I have always used clockwork recovery with no problems. Has anyone even bothered to talk to koush about this problem the recovery has or just dissin his mod?
He seems to update it often and I find it hard to believe he hasn't or wouldn't address this.
Anyone?
I am right there with ya? I have used it and not had issues... Maybe its because I don't get crazy on flipping roms that often?
Version 2.5 fixed all past issues with clockwork mod.
Well I was using clockwork mod....latest version of course....and it didn't seem to wipe davlink cache...so last night I did the research and figured out a quick way to flash between RA and clockworkmod recoveries. It's actually really easy to flip between the two through adb. I do flip between roms from time to time and its nice to use the recovery the developer reccomends.

Help....my clockwork will not let me install the latest recovery ??? What can I do

What do you mean latest recovery? Clockwork is a recovery.

I switched to RA after Clockwork recovery tried to strangle me in my sleep. I reported the bug so hopefully it will be fixed in the next version.
I've hopped between Amon and Clockwork, and I like them both. Amon is a cleaner interface (in my opinion) but Clockwork allows you to flash unsigned .zip's, and makes sure that you want to do an action before you do it (i.e. no, no, no, yes, no interface, lololol).
Both are amazing pieces of software.

I have been using amon this whole time....I need to flash the netarchy c kernel...when I go to flash latest recovery in clockwork it gives me a error...so I uses the alternative recovery at the bottom of the menus. I still can't flash the kernel

Oh that sucks.....i did the same thing as you and it went through just fine

I use Clockwork because that's what Rom Manager uses. Haven't had a single problem with it as of yet. Very nice to be able to update CM6 nightlies without touching a computer.
Seems like Amon has more features / cleaner interface though.

ROM Manager also allows easy switching as AmonRA's recovery is there as the "Alternate Recovery" on the bottom of the app. It will gladly flash back and forth (I use RA when I am going to update something through any of the CMUpdater-based update apps (DC and Fresh both use these)).
It's important to remember too, that each of the recovery images handle nandroids differently so if you nandroid in one, you have to use that same one to restore.

not really. if you copy the nandroid file from one folder to the other folder, either one will load it.
From my experience, CWM doesn't flash ROMs as well as AR (Failed flashing the CM6 nightly twice, AR got it the first time) and also doesn't have a Wipe Dalvik option, or an as-easy way to mount the SD card.

I never had a failure of flashing a rom, on any recovery, period. That is strange, sounds more like a problem with the rom.
CWM definitely has wipe dalvik option, it's under advanced. I just used it
Again clockwork has never failed me ever! It seems to clear cache fine to me as I have never had a boot loop I couldn't get out of.
So far there apears to be ZERO evidence of an issue with clockwork recovery so I guess I need to start asking developers why they are dissing clockwork recovery or just PM Koush directly.
If there is an issue I just want it to be addressed because I love the recovery and ROM Manager.
Happy new year.
Using CM 6.1.1
I am no longer able to flash roms.
I updated to the newest clockwork mod, tried to flash the newest FreshEvo.
It will flash but ends up in boot loops. I wiped everything multiple times.
I reverted to previous clockwork...same thing.
when I am able to get into recovery i get weird screen glitches.
It will not always boot into recovery.
Also I get quite a bit of random reboots.
maybeyou should read the thread which discuses the new clockworkmod. You know, the thread that is on the first page where you just posted.......

So my roms i download will install and boot up but once i get to that specific roms boot screen it just does an infinite loop. i then take the battery out, boot it into recovery and go back to my back up. I am not sure why it is doing this and would just love to be able to use cm7 (which did the infinite boot as well). its rooted using unrevoked and i have used a few other roms on it as well this has just been what has been happening lately. any help would be much appreciated!!
Had the same prob with cm7 #22, but 23 is working just fine, try that one. Remember the Dec said some may be broken, just fish around, but be very careful.

Sorry, meant to say the "dev" said some cm7 nightlys are experimental and may be broken. Flash to the last rom that functioned for you, then use rom manager to download the latest cm7 nightly. Which is what I'm using now and am very satisfied with.

see i tried the latest one and a few others. im not sure what it could be, that makes them go to the infinite boot screen. Should i try factory reset, root it again, restore my old version, then try to boot more roms?

Flash CM7 in recovery. Then BEFORE you reboot, install a different kernel
This is your best choice for CM7 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905873
Then reboot your Inc and see if it boots up, I have heard of a couple people who couldn't get their Inc to boot up with the stock CM& kernel, no clue why though.
hahaha so i got it to work. it was rom manager not letting me go through with it all. just did it manually through recovery. but i got sm7 to install and no notification bar. hence why im laughing. just gonn install miui and give her a shot.
Hello,
I am having some serious issues with my Evo. For several weeks now my Gmail accounts have not been syncing at all, incredibly frustrating, to say the least. I was hoping that the Gingerbread update would take care of this, so I followed all the instructions I could find, downloaded the de-odexed zip update, booted into recovery, wiped davlik, then installed that zip, and it seems to have updated (I'm running 2.3.3 now, that's the updated version, right?). However, not only has that not solved my syncing issue, but now when I went into Titanium Backup, it said that it could not establish root access! Also, when I go into ROM Manager and try to "Manage and Restore Backups," nothing comes up, when I know there are 3 backups on there (I was trying to delete one of them to free up space on my SD card).
Maybe related are the terrible space issues I've been having. It's also for some time now been telling me that I'm running low on space, but I have moved virtually all of the big programs to the SD card and deleted things I do not use, so I really don't understand how it's having such space issues.
Anyway, I really need some help here. I guess the number one most important thing I need to figure out is why I am no longer rooted. Can I just reroot like I did in the first place? But I'm also very bothered by this syncing problem, and the space issue is not far behind.
Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Do you have the superuser app and what version is your hboot?

Oh and do you have a recovery on that still works like among RA or clockwordmod (amon RA is way better tho)
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
I do have SuperUser, but have used it very little - what can I do with it/what will it tell me?? Not sure what HBoot version I have - where do I find that?
I don't have Amon RA, I do have ClockWorkMod, although I'm a little confused - what is ROM Manager? I'm not sure if ClockWorkMod still works - how can I tell?
Sorry, I'm obviously fairly a novice at this. Thanks much for your quick reply, and thanks in advance for your help.
Superuser is the app that gives you root permission
and rom manager is an app for beginners that will allow people to download roms and making backups doesnt do nothing
OK im going to help you now but your going to have to flash a new rom and everything ok tell me when your ready
Ah, OK. Fantastic, thanks so much!!! I am ready anytime...

Also, I just clicked on that link though, and got this message - "Parameter 'out' is required."
Thanks so much again!

Thanks much to both of you. Yeah, all I really want is the updated stock rom rooted, I'll be happy with that. I'll try out what you suggested later and let you know what happens.
In the meantime, anyone have thoughts on my storage issues? It fluctuates like crazy, goes from 50 MB+ free, down to like 4. Driving me absolutely crazy!
Anyone know if there is a huge difference between the release candidate version of CM7.1 and the stable version?
I have the RC installed and rom manager keeps telling me to update to the stable version.
However after applying the new version and rebooting, my phone just reboots back into the RC version.
So I'm just wondering if the stable version is so vastly different that i'm going to want to figure the problem out.
Thanks

Man, I need to figure out how to get this working then.
Stop using rom manager and cwm. Use amon RA recovery. There's a link in the thread below.
Then you can download cm7 manually and flash it manually. Rc1 was a few months ago so there are some major changes

+1 I used CWM for the longest time because of the fact that ROM Manager would flash it for me and flash the ROM for me. Then I actually went in and played around with the two recoveries and I like Amon Ra better. The only real advantage that I see CWM having is that it is a tad bit more convenient seeing as that it integrates with ROM Manager. Other than that it serves no other real purpose.
+1 for Amon's RA. Hopefully they can fix the front camera video chat issues (Tango, skype, etc) soon.
