Ok, so I want to flash up to myns 5 but I hear you need to update radios. I also read a thread where someone did the flashing in the wrong order and bricked themselves. I need help, do the radios nedd to be flashed first or the rom?

Full wipe,then Flash the rom first then the radio and then flash the rest one buy one.
Would it cause a problem if I flashed them all at once?

Flash then all before leaving recovery. Also when flashing radios make sure you let them flash if it looks like your phone is stuck just leave it alone for half an hour. When flaking then you will see an android with adb arrow or a box with an arrow coming out of it this is normal DO NOT PULL BATTERY you will brick your phone.

So basically it will stay there for awhile and disappear?

how old is your evo? when was it purchased .. when was it built?
did you check if you radios need to be updated??
this maybe unnecessary.
radio update.. is your biggest concern... once started.. you must let it finish... even if it looks like it is locked.. if you have to leave it run for 1hr.. let it run till it finishes.. till it boots back up to recovery!!!! make sure you have a full charge on battery!!!!
if you interfere with it.. the radio can be crapped.. and the phone has a high chance of being bricked.
I'm just worried about the brick part. I know if I flash a different kernel I won't need radio update, it's that correct?

i am a little worried on that question.. not sure if read it right...
are you asking?
if you can change the kernel.. INSTEAD of upgrading the radio?
answer = NO; they are totoally different things. Radio is way lower in the phone.. and is done deep down... that is why it can Brick your phone.
the radio needs to be updated.. once..
it will work with everything else...
unless a new radio is released.. but they do not change them very often.
then..
kernels and ROMs can be changed as often as you wish...
What I mean is stock on myns 5 requires a radio update however ziggy or another kernel does not. Is this true? The stock kernel needs the radio update or the rom?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
it is required for all new ROMs... and all new Kernels.
you need to do it.. if you dont already have it.
have you even checked if you have the new radios? how old is your phone?
boot into amon ra recovery. If you have clockwork recovery use rom manager to flash amon ra recovery.
Download myns's rls5 here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485
download the latest radio combo update here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485
Place both files on the root of your sdcard
1.Backup apps via titanium or or some other method.
2. Wipe data , cache, dalvik cache 3x each.
3. Choose install zip from sdcard.
4. Flash latest radio update combo.
5. Follow all prompts. Be patient the radio flash takes a few minutes. DO NOT PULL BATTERY! Let it finish. It will go back to recovery when done.
6. Reboot device after radio flash complete. Then go to menu--> settings-->system updates--> update profile.
you have now flashed radio combo
Then reboot into recovery. Wipe data/cache/dalvix 3x each again.
Choose install zip from sdcard.
choose myn's rls5 and flash
enjoy

I have some questions about what you just said. wipe 3 times, what's the basis? Also I'm not familiar with amon. One more thing I am confused about, didn't Myn post in his thread to flash the rom first?

the stock kernel need radios updated a custom kernel will not just flash the rom then before leaving recovery flash the custom kernel
So flash a different kernel before leaving recovery so I don't have to get a new radio?

Well I'm using warmsR5 and haven't update radios and its working great, I was scared as you, didn't want to brick my phone so what i did was,....download R5 and a custom kernel, save them in my memory card then...
I went in to recovery, wipe all, data,cache etc, flash R5, and before rebooting, wipe just the cache and dalvik, and flash the custom kernel, sbc 4.1.9.1 I think , it went great!
I think you only need to update radios if your planning to keep the stock kernel, let me knorr if this works for you.

You CAN use setcpu with a HAVS kernel, but doing so would be counter productive, as the HAVS basically has a built in setcpu. I still have it on my phone, just disable at the moment.
I just lost 72% in one hour...i think that's to blame lol

I reflash to odin, root with the new one click, wipe data, cache and dalvik, flash SRF, after a few hours it will freeze with a black screen and I have to pop the battery to re-boot. I've tried wiping 3 times, turning journaling on, etc. Every non-asop rom eventually freezes on me, however, miui and cm7 never have that problem? Looking for suggestions and and aswser as to why the aosp roms never have the same issue. Any other rom freezes with in 24 hours, cm7 and miui have never froze on me.

I wish i knew cause as soong as my phone goes into standby, it wont come back on. i even changed the voltage settings like recomended..its a over clocked kernal but i dont overclock the settings at all
I'm not overclocked, just flashed the genocide kernel to see if that makes any difference. So what steps should I take? What I did was
Odin to stock eb13
Ota update to ec05
New clockwork mod
Wiped data, cache, and dalvik
Flashed SRF

Most new roms backup data and they dont like it when u wipe data before the flash...and cm7 and miui dont do this so maybe thats why your getting freezes.
Simply AOSP dosen't, and I've had the same problem on there. Someone on craigslist needs to just trade an evo for my epic so I can get full cm7 goodness, ha ha

I'm very impatient, ha ha. Right now I'm odining the EC05 stock plus tha's pre-rooted, then Im gonna let it sit for 5, boot recovery, and flash SRF with out wiping, well see how that works. I had my hopes up because it seemed that the new CWM might have fixed my issues, but alas, no.
It sucks, my choices are
Stock, and super slow with everything working
CM7 or MIUI, super fast with out mms, gps or cam (on cm7)
or Everyother rom, fast, but have to pull my battery 5 times a day

I'm talking about true stock. I use your odin tar as a starting point seeing as how its pre-rooted. Honestly have never given it a try as a daily driver, if SRF freezes after flashing and not wiping, I may have to give it a try.
Yours is the EC05 plus pre-rooted with no CIQ right?
Yes

I dont know if it makes a diffrence but I havent tried any rom thats based off of the EE03 Modem.. like the "Swiss Cheese Samsprint" EE03 rom..

They are based off of the 2.3 kernal, not ee03 modem. Try them, they work fine, trust me.

Don't worry. This whole thread makes no sense unless the OP means that CM7 is the only ROM that does not freeze.
The Epic has no other AOSP ROM that I am aware of. I guess even the stock ROMs freeze for the OP.

i actually find that sometimes i get FCs if i dont wipe so wiping has nothing at all to do with this
I'm wondering if you are using any cpu control apps? Setcpu? Pimp my cpu? Voltage control?
And/or any ram mamaging apps like auto memory manager?
I would suggest after you get on srf 1.1.1, get setcpu, do a quick auto detect on there, and change settings to conservative 200 min 1000 max, see if that helps, make sure you do NOT have both voltage control and setcpu installed.
Auto memory manager will also interfere with the ram tweaks in srf that's why I included that

@prodigy
CM7 and MIUI are both aosp, neither of those freeze, neither does a stock odin flash, any custom rom freezes.
@dr
I'm not using voltage control or setcpu, but I am using an auto task killer. Could that be the issue? And why is it only on non-aosp roms that I have this problem. Never had a bad flash with miui or cm7, and evey custom rom always freezes after trying everything.

first off i love this foum and all of its members it has help me numerous times before. I recently rooted my phone HTC Evo 4G with stock Gingerbread. Used revolutionary got s-off, rooted m phone put a few nice apps on there also flashed a new kernel b/c it was necessary for HDMIwin to work.
But then my mp4 files on my SDcard would only play sound and no video...and my camera wouldnt display anything just a white screen
please help me xda....your my only hope
thank you

Every one of those problems points to a bad kernal. Try flashing the same kernal again, make sure you wipe only cache and dalvik before flashing.
It that doesnt work, then that means that kernal isnt compatible with your hardware/rom combo.
That's a great thing about kernels, you can flash them without destroying anything. Try a few different ones out and with each one try to demo every feature you phone has and you'll see that certain kernel-and-rom combos leave you with or without certain hardware or software capabilities. But there are enough out there where you'll find one that lets you use everything you need.

HDMIwin is for Sense 2.2 ROMs. They have yet to update it. Flashing a 2.2 kernel onto a Gingerbread ROM creates problems, such as your white screen camera.
If you want HDMIwin for Sense, then you will have to go back to a Sense 2.2 ROM. I think you can run some sort of app with the Tiamat kernel on an AOSP ROM like Cyanogenmod

For some reason now, my phone won't take kernels anymore. I can install ROM's and everything else, but when i try and flash a different kernel my phone won't keep it. It will reboot fine, but when i go and look in the settings to see if the kernel is there it is not installed. I do the usual clear dalvik and the cache then flash the kernel. It says it installed it, but it doesn't. Has this ever happened to anyone else, and if so how do you fix it? I have also completely wiped the phone and that did not help either. I have a HTC EVO 4g. I hope someone can help me with this problem.
Hey Partyman this may sound silly but did you double check that you're not flashing the wrong kernel with the rom you're flashing?

Lewa OS. The kernel is mason gb v15. I never had a problem before until I used gruesome wolfs script that is supposed to clean everything to install a ROM.

keep in mind not every kernel will work with every custom rom, sometimes it will say installed but it really didnt. other times your phone just will boot loop at the white evo screen
Well just to let you know....Problem solved on installing kernel's. I changed over to Smelkus Mod and it worked perfect. My Anon RA must have went bad or something.
Mod can you please close this thread now. Thanks.
Hello guys happy Saturday!
I flashed some random kernel a week or so ago and I want to go back to the regular kernel... Where can I find stock cm10 kernels? I imagine it would almost have to be in any cm10-update.zip but I have no idea where to find it or what its called.
Thanks for your help
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
usually you can reflash CM rom and get the kernal back. usually it keeps all the apps and settings that way. Just only wipe divack and cache, NOT system.
