[Q] Flashing Alliance ROM - Bootloader or Install Zip from SD?!? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
I'm a bit of a noob and had a question. I have the alliance 7.6 rom with netflix and tried using the bootloader to install this new rom. It quits right after parsing and doesn't go any further. I tried going into my AmonRa 2.3 recovery and flash the zip and doing the KingFormatALL successfully the ROM installed but is it ok to do it this way rather then thru the bootloader?

[Q] Flasing a MOD to a ROM

Hi all,
I've flashed the ARHD 5.1.1 ROM today and all is working fine. I am now looking at flashing the CRT and Sense 3 lock-screen MODs onto my phone.
Am I correct in thinking I use the same procedure as I did for flashing the ARHD ROM using ROM Manager... where I would boot into recovery and select the *.zip from my SD card?
I've had a search around an I have been unable to find a definite answer.
Thanks in advance.
Quote from Mike's thread;
All extras listed here with meta-inf folder inside the .zip archive needs to be installed via Clockworkmod recovery!
So yes. Don't try flashing it at the same time as the ROM, always reboot first and then go back into recovery and flash addon.
Also, it's best to flash one at a time, I got a boot-loop once when I tried to flash a few of them at the same time
Happy flashing!

[Q] Changing from CWM to EXT4 recovery

Hi folks,
As the title says, I want to change from CWM to EXT4 recovery for future use (mainly for ICS 4.x and ICS 4.x MIUI)
Can someone guide me how to get rid of the CWM recovery?
I only have the recovery flashed so I'm not using CWM ROM manager.
All help is appreciated.
Cheers,
R.
Go to 4ext.net. download recovery updater app. Install it then use it to install 4ext recovery. You should try the touch version is pretty sweet
Thanks,
So it will overwrite CWM?
And do I need to install recovery updater first and recovery touch on top of it, or will touch be installed through the main app?
EDIT: Well I answered my own questions .. .. It went pretty smooth, so thanks again!!
Got the same issue!
Unlocked my bootloader fallowing HTCdev.
My device is still S-ON. Currently using CWM to flash ROMs and fastboot to flash boot.img.
Is there anything to take care about when switching to 4EXT in my situation?
Thanks.

Can't install any Rom except for stock

When I try to install a rom it wont install system files it skips over them only to extract some apps which means no bootup.
Any suggestions?
I've tried to install stock and then wipe and then install a rom and i still get same result however sometimes when i flash stock with odin i get fail at the very end whether it be for HLOS file or modem...
I think i can fix this if i wipe my partitions and get them partitioned again.. or maybe one of Odin's tick marks could help??
:crying:
please help
I'll probably sell this phone
More information is needed. What version of stock are you running? Are you rooting your phone? Are you installing a custom recovery? Which custom recovery are you using? Name at least one rom other then stock you've tried to install and how you tried to install it. I would guess no one has responded because they don't have the information needed to give you the help you are asking for.

Im having the same problem too I cant seem to install no rom other then the backup of my Stouck MDL...I tired installing wicked rom and of course it got stuck at the Samsung screen and i did everything when it came to wiping it ....sooo the i tried insane KItKat and that to as well got stuck on boot and im on the latest TWRP 2.7.0.1 recovery running MDL stock
I've tried to install with CWM Recovery by OUDSH and TWRP and no luck I've tried installing WickedRom Hyperdrive and GE by Kot49H I can only install stock with Odin and the reason its not installing is because its avoiding the extraction of system files to the phone.

Need help

Hello guys, I've recently flashed TWRP recovery and tried to flash a 4.4 Kitkat rom onto my device.
I have a problem trying to install the rom. It keeps saying that there is no MD5 found.
And also could not create file for updater extract in /tmp/updater.
I've got everything that the rom requires such as the Hboot and Ext part. What's the issue here?
I've tried installing a lot of other roms but it keeps giving me this same error, I also can't flash 4ext using the flash from zip or anything. I always recieve the same error.

You could try disabling signature checking from recovery.

[Q] Can't Flash - Teamwin error flashing zip

Trying to flash several ROMs on the latest version of Teamwin, and even a lower version after reading that it helped someone. Had to use ODIN recently and went back to a bone stock ROM, and now I rooted it and am trying to flash a custom ROM. Trying the latest SlimROM, Liquid, CM11, no luck.
Teamwin is saying "E: Error in /external_sdcard/ROM NAME
(Status 7)
Error flashing zip ' /external_sdcard/ROM NAME
Updating partition details. . ."
Any ideas before I re-ODIN my phone and go back to using a stock ROM?
Alright, I installed a JB stock ROM with bootloader via ODIN and I'll use this until tomorrow when I have more time. I'll re-root it, get a proper 4.3 ROM and give it a shot.
Did you give CWM a try?
Is there a reason your trying to use twr specifically?
