[Q] need help evo keeps showing sprint sign and wont boot - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Get used to this line of questioning.
Which Recovery are you using, did you do a FULL and complete wipe (Or just Dalvik & Cache)?
Try to give us as much info as possible

it was revolutionary recovery, but i installed rom manager premium, now its clockworkmod recovery, i wiped cache and wiped dalvik?
Is there anything i'm missing please hurry if possible thank you.....

[Q] Hlep can't install rom on htc evo

Hello, just checking to see if anyone can help, everytime I try to install a new rom it says that it installes but then when I reboot it boot loops after the htc evo 4g screen. I have used clockwork recovery and also used ra-supersonic-v2.3. The only thing I can install is my nandroid that I have from a previous rom. The new update wont boot either. If any one can help please let me know.
Try wiping everything and then flash the rom. And dont flash two zips at yhe same time.

I have also used a format all.zip, nothing. everytime i wipe everything multipule times it does the same. Only the nandroid works no other roms will. Please help

Yes i did try diffrent recovery's no luck
well clockwork is your problem. lol. install amon ra v2.3 recovery. once on there wipe everything in the wipe menu except the rotate settings and the sd-card. flash your rom of choice and you should be set.

I have an EVO that I rooted with UNREVOKED about a month ago
This afternoon, I tried to flash to the new Synergy Rom with the cool Sense UI, BUT!! Dumb me, who was up working all night long was not reading correctly and flashed the INCREDIBLE ROM.
Yeah Yeah I know, dumb thing
I obviously got an error and then tried to restore my Nandroid backups that I had previously made.
These caused errors too..which they never had before.
I pulled the battery and then couldn't even get into clockwork mod.
I was thankfully able to flash Clockwork MOD to at least be able to get into a recovery screen.
I did so, and flashed my Myn 2.2 ROM which thankfully installed.
Tonight, I went back to try to flash the ROM that I had originally wanted to flash and the flash was complete.
HOWEVER, when I rebooted, it just kept going to the white HTC screen, hanging and then rebooting to the white HTC screen over and over.
I tried to start all over but doing a data wipe/factory restore and to wipe the Dalvik Cache..
When I did this, I got an error:
E:Can't mount/dev/block/mmcb1k0p2
File exists.
I was able to get back to my Myn 2.2 but things like Google navigator don't work,
I hope I have explained this well enough for you guys to understand.
If there is anyone out there that can help me, I would appreciate it!!!
Thanks
Mike
You did not brick your device.
Try this out and tell me it works.
Download EVO version of your preferred Rom. Place on SD card.
Search for amon ra supersonic.
Go to the xda link once you search for it.
Download the PC36IMG.zip version of amon ra.
Place on sdcard, but not in any folders.
Make sure the file name is "PC36IMG.zip", it is case sensitive.
Turn off phone.
Reboot into hboot, by holding the volume DOWN key and power button.
Let the hboot find the PC36IMG image.
When it asks whether you want to update/flash...say yes.
It will unload the recovery image into your phone.
It will ask you if you want to reboot, say no.
Then, go to where it says recovery and click to boot into recovery.
Now you should be using amon ra v2.3.3 supersonic.
Go to wipe and wipe everything, factory reset, data, ext, android secure, everything!
If you feel frisky, wipe again!
Now, proceed to flash from zip.
Choose the Rom you downloaded in step one.
That should do the trick. Also...clockwork mod nandroid backups will not work with amon ra backups, and vice versa. Keep this in mind.

So you think it is the clockwork? I hear that most people like Amon RA better.

Well, when I first purchased my Evo I used clockwork mod for about a day. It caused me issues, personally, which could also be attributed to my lack of knowledge at the time. So I tried amon ra and have always been happy. My issue with cwm was that it did wipe correctly.

I have read that it is possible that you can lose your 4G keys with AMON RA. That makes me nervous...is there anyway to avoid this?
No one can guarantee that you won't lose your WiMax keys with either recovery. I have never used Clockwork on my EVO, but my keys are intact with AMON RA, and it is easy to back them up with AMON RA.
Thank you so much!!!
I have company in town and not a lot of time to play...so it is SAFE to wipe everything?
Is there anything that I shouldn't be wiping?
Android security? What is that? And is it Safe? I am just a bit nervous...but THANK YOU for your help!
Don't wipe your SD card. Yes, wipe android secure.
Android secure is a directory used by Google apps2sd, capable on froyo and above. It is where Google stores your apps once you move them to SD card. You can wipe it.

unfortunately, this did not work. I did everything that you said. I install the amon ra, and deleted everything and wiped everything that you said. I installed the new ram that I thought was a successful install. it booted to the white htc screen, and then turned itself off and right back on it went right back to that same white htc screen. It kept doing this.....other then this being a bad rom can you think of anything else I could be causing this? HELP!

I agree to use amon ra. Try formatting the system partition. I know that the new sense roms are large.

How do I go about doing that and what does that do? Will that mess up anything on my sd card?

What version of RA do u have? I had a version that have options for clearing a bunch of partitions. I'm pretty sure its there under advanced or something... Clear system partition? Out won't hurt anything, but you have to flash a rom after that or there will be nothing to boot to

sorry I am not rooted right now. I received a replacement phone because of a broken micro USB and it came with 2.3.3. Do you see an option for wipe system partition? or format system partition?
I also think that the mikg rom runs a script during flash that wipes the system. Kind of aamikiam's way of taking the end user mistakes out of the equation I guess...

Boot into recovery and select wipe. That's assuming you're using Amon Ra recovery. If you're using CWM for some reason then boot into recovery and then select wipe then wipe cache, then go back, then go into advanced and wipe dalvik.

Im running Amon Ra and i just completed those steps and rebooted, still same issue.
The only change that was made to the system was I uninstalled Slacker Radio last evening.
What launcher are you using ? Sorry for the long wait. I can't believe nobody else has tried to help you. If that didn't help then my next suggestion would be to just backup everything with the app of your choice then re-flash the rom. I like to try to fix the problem before I just re-flash though, just in case it happens again then you know how to fix it.

[Q] Seperate But Equal EVO 4G Problem

Hi, I'm new to the whole rooting scene, and I rooted my phone for the first time yesterday. Had Fresh Evo installed and everything was nice,but i saw a sense 3.5 update as well, so i tried to flash that, and now my phone won't go past the white Evo screen. I can boot into recovery, but i cant do anything else! Freaked out, please help!
I'm not too familiar with sense. Did you try and flash another updated rom? Or did you accept some ota update? If it was a .zip, wipe cache, wipe davlik, then reflash.

Turns out, i didn't wipe properly, and now my phone is back to where it should be. I don't have a copy of my original backup, for some reason, i couldn't read it in recovery. I'm thinking about restoring it to out of box settings and starting the root again...but anyways, I do use clockwork mod...can someone inform me as to how to go about getting Amon Ra? That's an awesome name, btw. Amon Ra....

[Q] No Rom's work?

I have been using an old rom for months now with no problems. I decided that I would unroot my phone and get all new updates from Sprint and re-root. I used Revolutionary to root had some problems finally got full root. Here are where my problems start. First I tried MikG v3.00 for some reason it got caught in boot loop cleared cach still boot loop. Then I tried Sprint Lovers everything seem to be fine wiped and clear cach flashed rom. Loaded like normal and splash screen goes into home screen show signal stregth and battery strength but at that point that is it. Cannot access phone. I was smart enough to backup before I started this process so I can go back to what worked but I want a change. Can anybody help me!!
Go read my guide, bro. It's for people right after they get rooted. Click the link in my signature
Shot in the dark, but what recovery are you useing
Sent from my PC36100 using Xparent Green Tapatalk
First, you should NOT have unrooted. There is nothing from Sprint that is not in a custom ROM.
Next, when you flash a new ROM, you MUST wipe evrything on the wipe screen except SDCard. Then run VR Superwipe zip. Then flash the ROM.

You didn't WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET. That's your problem right there.

You have to install the amon ra style recovery [in the dev section]. I haven't used it yet, but you may have to be on the latest CWM recovery, because I don't know if the style recovery uses the older version of CWM recovery, since they changed.
Radios, hboot etc can be found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485 if needed
