Well backup the rom; make sure you have at least 500mb free space. Do a full wipe [factory/data, cache, dalvik cache], flash the new rom. Make sure you have more space, because the sense 2.1/3.0 can be big in backup size.

What happens when you try to flash another Rom?

I get stuck at the HTC evo 4g screen just stays white and wont boot I have wiped it numerous times and I get the same result never happend until I flashed the 1.2 stable I also did flash the vipermod and Google apps as well as available memory mod I found I had used that multiple times before as well

Wipe everything 3x, use Virus's CR super wipe after you manually wipe everything. Factory wipe, cache and delvik cache. That should clear everything out. Then flash a Rom. It sounds like something isn't getting wiped.

Well it says report to the recovery log to see what went wrong its preventing me from even Making a backup at all it says depot to recovery log to see what went wrong seems more serious no?

So because somethings not wiping properly that will give me an error telling me to view the recovery log and then prevent me from flashing different builds and making a nandroid backup I don't seem to see a link for the superwipe under virus I tried searching and i could not locate it is it on his website?

If I were you, I'd backup my SD Card, format it, repartition it, if you're using partitions, and then copy the essentials back over. Specifically, you're nandroid folder, then reflash your Recovery, which hopefully, is Amon Ra.
Then either try to reflash one of your nandroids, although if it was me, I'd just copy the ROM you want first, and then try to flash that, and it if goes well, try a nandroid you have saved.
I've had this happen twice and both times, reflashing recovery did the trick

Alright ill try thanks alot everyone I appreaciate your help ill get back to you guys hopefully with good news

Well so there's no way I could just wipe it with recovery and flash it over cause apparently I'm not the only one with this issue and somebody said it has to do with partitions of my SD card I'm trying to look into it deeper.

You don't have to partition it; first reflash your recovery via PC36IMG image, then copy your sdcard to a pc, format it, then copy the files back over, try to restore a backup, or reflash the rom.

[Q] problem flahsing roms!!!!

i was doing fine for about a month now( i'm new) and recently i just flashed from cm6 to bakedsnack1.0 the past week my phone was showing the low storage on device and was running really slow. response times were about 4 seconds per digit dialed for a telephone number.
so i tried to reflash that rom. unfortunately it got stuck in a bootloop. so i proceeded in reflahsing kernals, wimax and radio. now it will get out of bootloop however it does the "welcome to bakedsnack" goes to setup then freezes for 10 seconds then does the htc evo4g white screen, "welcome to bakedsnack" and this process repeats over and over.
can someone help me either fix this with custom roms and keeping full root. or cans omeone teach me how to make this phone 100% brand new. as if i just opened it out of the box from sprint. thatw ay i can proceed to start all over.
P.S. i have no knowledge of adb.

Also, you can just put your card into your computer and put the Rom on it that way if you need to.

If you are stuck in a bootloop, use the Clear Storage option in the bootloader menu, then in Recovery, clear the caches and flash your rom.

Amon RA recovery
I was having some problems flashing roms at one time as well. Turned out to be a corrupted sd card that wouldn't mount. Try to take out the sd card and place it in a card reader. Save the files on there to you desktop and reformat the card. Place it back in the phone and reboot. This may work for you. And the Amon RA recovery and directions are in the Development section of the EVO forum. Most of the time it's on the first page. Good luck.

[Q] Problem Nandroid restoring

My two favorite roms are Fresh and CM6. I would like to be able to jump between the two whenever the spirit moves me. However, whenever I try to nandroid restore to a Fresh backup from any AOSP rom, i get stuck in a bootloop and have to rewipe and flash everything in order to get back, therefore making my Fresh backup useless. Before flashing any new rom, I always do a full data, cache, and dalvik wipe. I am I missing something here?? Shouldn't I be able to flash a rom (aosp or sense), get it setup with programs the way I want them, screens setup, etc. Then make nandroid backups and jump back and forth restoring them whenever I want?? Please help

You might be having the same issue I was; what recovery are you on? It happened to me when I was amon ra 2.2.1 so I switched to 2.3.1 amon and I stopped getting tons of bootloops. P.S I never have to wipe anything when flashing nandroids and never had an issue. My issue was the recovery.

I am currently running RA-supersonic-v2.3. Yesterday I did another backup of my most current Fresh setup but this time I also backed up the cache and sd-ext options in the recovery menu and I didn't have a problem nandroid restoring back after flashing an AOSP rom. I don't know, I think my phone is possessed!

In most cases I would agree, but if the OP is running any sort of ext a2sd, contents of cache/dalvik cache are not entirely restored, and clearing them after restore, but before reboot is a good idea.
I just ran aosp rom for the first time for a few days. When I nanded back to airborne (sense), I flashed a sense kernel before the nand restore just out of fear of remnants. Dont know if its necessary.

Hey Guys...HELP WITH "APP2SD" PLEASE !!!!

Hey whats up guys?
so......Im not really new here guys, But i am new to APP2SD....i partitioned my card for the KINGDOM ROM which turned out to be really cool. Everything went GREAT with the partition, I followed VIRUS direction to the "T".......now i deleted all my old backups because i was told that some files may be corrupt and what not, so i made 2 backups of the B3 ROM from virus.....to try to make a long story short, when i restore one or the other of the backups i have, the APPS that required ROOT, tells me they cant find ROOT>....and believe me...im ROOTED LOL.....im not that lost.....i was even given a command for TE......"app2sd--cachesd"......and the PERMISSION WERE DEINED ACCROSS THE BOARD......now i can get to the titanium backup's =main screen and it shows i have APP2SD= 1.91mb........so im guess the app2sd isnt installing the apps onto my SDcard...im not sure if i have to move every app to my SDcard myself...not sure if that the issues....but to me something sounds wrong....ya know, ive deleted all the apps and re-installed them....i even installed them from amazon...NO GO....so if i RE-Flash, the apps will work...cause i setup my phone with TB.....but its after when i RESTORE my backup, that everything goes screwy...ohh and i am backing up SDtext.....and wiping it if i flash another ROM or restore a differnet backup.......Cant really find any info on anyne having this same problem....This is the first time im actually making my first thread so go easy on me LOL......thanks alots guys...I really appreciate it...
EDIT:.....ohh and all my apps sometimes show up in SU and they are allowed.....and SU is updated

I'm not sure I quite follow you, but, if you have the time, try this: after you've gotten your rom setup how you like it, reboot into recovery. Hopefully, you're using amon RA v2.3 as your recovery. If so, go to the wipe menu and wipe the cache & dalvik. After that, go to the backup/restore menu and, in addition to what is already selected to be backed up, select sdext and .android.secure. now create the backup and afterwards, reboot. Now to test it out, for back into recovery, wipe EVERYTHING in the wipe menu EXCEPT the SD card and then go to the backup/restore menu and restore the backup you just made. If using amon RA, the name of the backup *should* have a BSDEA beginning or something to that extent. Afterwards, reboot. Your system *should* restore back to the way it was without any problems.

It will be automatically activated if whichever Rom you are flashing had it cooked into it
If it's not cooked into the ROM, then it must be activated ( by flashing the script via recovery, i think....) Sorry, in kinda new to aa2sd too

The scripts are an easy way to wipe. I wipe everything with one, then go straight to flashing whatever ROM I was going to flash without having to navigate the menus. BTW, I use Calkulin's zip with AmonRa
Run VR Superwipe once and then wipe everything (except for SD card) twice by hand in Amon Ra. I have yet to have a failed install or issues
Well, I ran Calk's twice and both times I had to reflash Recovery afterwards....
Someone please link me to gruesomwolf's wipe. I can not find it. All I keep getting is this thread in the results..never even heard of it until this thread.
Edit: Disregard, I finally found it.
where? can someone post the link? I googled "gruesome wolf wipe script" and am unable to find it.
Here ya go!
Thank you.
Check out the format all. It wipes everything but things on SD card. so it literally erases the whole rom. If you run this, you wont be booting until you flash something. This is like a total wipe

I had been content with my setup, but I finally got a chance to check out the Format All. It does what it's supposed to do, but if you think it's good, then you should try VR Superwipe. It's wipes everything 3 times! I like to manually wipe everything with Ra Amon, flash VR Superwipe and then Gruesomes Wipe All just because it reboots back into recovery. A bit overkill, but I'm always sure everything is squeaky clean.

[Q] Phone allergic to AOSP?

I have used MIUI since June with no problems at all, I then tried to install the 9.30 update. It didn't install right even though MD5 matched (stuck on the white HTC Incredible screen). I tried restoring to my backup and after rebooting nothing happened. It tries going to the boot animation but doesn't, just goes to a black screen. I've let it sit for an hour there and nothing happens. I tried resolving this on the MIUI.us forums, but no responses so far.
At that point I tried cm7, it worked but was really glitchy and bootlooping. cm6 was next, and it was working mostly but didn't seem stable to run. I then tried going back to MIUI all of them, 8.19, 9.2, and 9.9 as well as the 9.30, did not install.
I am now running the rooted stock rom and it seems to be running fine these past two weeks (aside from the fact it's sense). Over the weekend I tried, again, to install MIUI and restore a backup but it's still not working. And to make matters worse cm6 and 7 are no longer running.
I have also tried all of the above with CWM 3.0.0.8, CWM 5.0.0.2, and Amon_RA 3.02 (no restore to test) and have had the same issues across all recoveries.
It really seems like my phone has become allergic to any AOSP rom, I haven't tried other sense roms but I'm expecting them to work since the rooted stock rom has both installed and restored with no issues.
I have not tried going back to bone-stock and then re-rooting as that would be a pain. But if it is my only option to get back to MIUI then I will give it a shot.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Before you flash a ROM do you:
Clear data: Wipe user data/factory reset
Mounts and Storage - format /system, format /boot, format /data, format /cache
Advanced - Wipe Dalvik
Then flash the ROM?
Before a new rom (not btwn miui updates) I normally wipe data/factory reset and wipe dalvik. But I don't do anything in mounts and storage unless I need to mount usb storage.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I would back up your current working ROM, try what I mentioned above, and then try flashing MIUI again.
In Mounts and Storage, you'll have the option to format emmc, and sd card too. Just make sure you ARE NOT selecting those items, as obviously you want those intact. If you follow the instruction above, you should be fine.
Got proper HBOOT version?

Ok, I did all of the above and still have no luck in installing MIUI or restoring a backup.
Also, I didn't mention this in the first post. When I try and boot from a restored MIUI and it tries to load the boot animation I can still reset the phone with the 3-finger salute, so the phone is still doing something just not what it's supposed to. I did try flashing another boot screen incase there was something wrong with the backup, but that didn't work.
Any other ideas out there?
Tried a different sd? Copy and paste the contents of sd to pc, reformat sd fat32, copy contents back to sd, see if issue persists.
If reformatted native sd doesn't help, perhaps try another.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
I just tried both a different sd card as well as reformatting my current one, in both cases I can't install MIUI nor CM6.
Stumped here... Only other thing I can think to try is a Sense ROM on either/both sd's to see what boots and runs without issue.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
As I mentioned already I'm currently running the rooted stock gb rom, which is sense. I can try another sense rom just for fun.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Yep, apologies. Speculation on my part:
Bad sd. AOSP interacts with sd on boot and during normal use, device acts up only with AOSP, hence bad sd.
Also, when flashing the AOSP ROM on newly formatted sd, wipe of mounts (data, cache, boot, and system) as well as factory reset, cache partition, and dalvik, all from recovery were successful?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
So sense does not interact with sd the same way as aosp? What could be the problem with the sd card that allows it to do everything but allow it to boot aosp roms (especially since I have tried 2 different ones) ?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
AOSP calls on and even interacts the sd during boot, as well as during normal use. If your device is only wonky running AOSP, I'd suspect the sd, provided a complete wipe is done and the cwm, radio, and HBOOT are what's called for by the AOSP ROM.
Assume nothing restored to fresh aosp install, correct?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
Yeah, a restore or a fresh install has problems. If I install and then remove the sd card would it possibly boot then?
I'm still confused as to how the sd card can do everything else that it's supposed to but not talk to an aosp rom.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
AOSP uses the sd to operate, Sense does not.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
What I still don't understand then, if it is the SD card, why do I still have the problem with a different sd card?
Is it possible that it is hardware related, or something else, with the phone? I am able to read and write to the SD card when operating the phone, but the issue only appears to happen at boot.
This weekend I may try and unroot and then reroot, just incase some important files got corrupted. as the unroot would replace nearly everything it should fix the problem if it isn't hardware... I'm hoping.
Stumped... Hard to say.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
Well, I got tired of sense so I flashed the RUU, reloaded CWM 5.0.0.2 and restored my old rom... it worked. So now I'm fixed, yay.
Thanks for helping me troubleshoot it.
