I have been trying all day to flash MikG 2.4 and 2.5, neither with any success. I wipe everything completely, sometimes 2 and 3 times just to be sure and am using Amon 2.3. With both 2.4 and 2.5 (I tried to redownload both as well just to check) the rom flashes fine, boots to the white splash screen, goes through the boot animation, appears to start the operating system but gets a little ways, and then reboots. This happens over and over continuously. I really would love to use this rom but can't get it to boot. Any ideas?
As an aside, I tried to recover a kingdom E3 Shooter 3d backup that I made a few weeks back and the same thing is happening, it will load partially up and then go into a bootloop. All other Roms I have recovered (CM7, fresh, etc.) all work fine.
bump......
I thought it was just me.I had the same problem with the shooter 3d. I just reflashed the old Rom I was using. Maybe its something wrong with the ROM.

I know at least two of us here have this problem. With me it happens nearly every other reboot, when I boot to recovery or when I boot the phone. It just sticks at white HTC screen forever and I have to pull the battery.
It is more of an anoyyance than anything however I suppose it could be dangerous if it happened during radio update. Anyone else have the problem or some insight into what causes it?
I know mine started doing it before I even flashed a permanent recovery so that's not the problem.
Thanks.

I had this problem, but only on vanilla FroYo roms. It annoyed me and stopped a friend from getting one (even after a lengthy conversation about it being me rooting and the rom) but on sense no such problems.
Now on CM6 and I don't get the problem. So I myself have narrowed it down to vanilla FroYo.

I'm on cm6 and get it all the time. Had it on defrost too.
I'm using LeeDroids v1.3a sense Rom and I've never had a hang. To be honest I've never had froyo run this smoothly on any other Rom before. I've rebooted about 10 times and its fast and swift, with no hangs.

Defrost was the worst due it with me. Every other boot (if I was lucky!) would end up in a boot loop.

i think its to do with your ext not mounting so then it hangs. I had this issue on OD 1.6 and AdamG's Sense but it got sorted when I used Defrost's a2sd script.
Is there some sort of log i can pull to see what is going wrong when it hangs?
Any ideas on how to diagnose what is going wrong on boot?
I don't know if I understand what is the real problem, i'm spanish.
I understand that some ROM's are not booting well doing a bootloop. With my Desire I haven't got this issue but on my cousin Desire this problem occured with a ROM that are working well for me with same conditions and tested also with same SD card.
I try this:
Apply the PB99IMG.zip based on 1.23 from Virgin Mobile and working correctly.
Wipe from recovery, and bootloop.
Apply again de PB99IMG.zip
Flash a rooted version of this ROM without wipe, device boot well and its rooted.
I try to flash the MDC r5 Froyo with Sense and same problem ocurre but can't boot with or without wipe.
No idea why this is happening, I have a rooted/s-off'd SLCD desire, has been working fine up until the point I flashed the N1 table to use with Oxygen, Oxygen installed and worked fine. I then decided to go back to Aurax and wiped/flashed but it sits on the splash screen and goes no further (no matter how long I leave it for), I then tried Leedroid, same thing, I also tried a Sense HD rom, same problem.
I then flashed back the Sense table and tried again, same problem, just sit's on the splash screen.
I can flash non-sense roms and they work perfectly (e.g. Miui/Oxygen/Defrost etc).
Any ideas?
Edit: I appear to have fixed it, flashed the Bravo Stock 1.5 img, rebooted bootloader and cleared cache.
Basically when I install the warm 2.2 rom it will hang on the htc evo screen. I had flashed this rom earlier this morning and it flashed fine. Ever since I've flashed CR 6.1.1 this afternoon i've been having problems. Even my baked snack 1.9 rom is very slow but comes up after either sitting at the Green HTC text after it has booted. I had to power down the phone a few times to even get that to come up. Is there something I'm doing wrong here all the sudden? I am clearing davlik and partition cache, even tried to wide data/restore to no avail. I'm at a loss here. Anyone have any input here? As I type this, I just did a complete wipe and tried to install Warm 2.2 and it is just sittin at the white screen that says HTC EVO 4G. Powered down a few times and removed battery for a minute to no avail, still just sits at that white screen.
I am able to restore from nandroid. I am also able to isntall a few roms.
Thanks

Uh, what kernel/radios are you using? I had similar problems when I flashed the all in one radio combo in calk's thread.
That is exactly what I did too, flashed the radios. How did you resolve that issue? I dind't even think that would cause these types of problems.
I just put on Fresh 3.5 and it installed fine. I am using kernel 2.6.32.17-gee557fd (under it says [email protected] #15 (Which kernel would that be?) PRI is 1.90_003
Well I downgraded the radio to2.15.00.09.01 and I got past the white screen and into warm. THanks much!! I had no idea that a radio would just cause it to hang like that. So the only way to revert back to an old radio file is to install it? A nanrestore doesn't do that it appears??
Thanks very much

EVO4G Hardware Version 0003 Rooted but Running Stock Sprint Rom.
Hey guys, I've been rooted for a while. I've ran CM6 CM7, The Alpha Kingdom from Virus. All worked fine... Lately whenver I've flashed a sense ROM it doesn't seem to boot. The B1 and the B1.1 from Virus for the Kingdom ROM gets to the "HTC EVO 4G" screen and d oesn't go past it. The exact same thing happens with Fresh 3.5.0.1 which worked perfectly fine before since it was my regular ROM. Last ROM I flashed was Kush's 2.3.4 and it Booted and Ran fine.
I have 100MB internal free currently. Not sure if that has anything to do with it.
I'll be very appreciative of any help.
you internal memory doesn't really matter because when you flash a new rom you should be clearing all your cache and doing a factory reset while in recovery before flashing the rom. From the sounds of it this should fix your problem with no being able to flash most roms.
I have been having a problem every time I change roms where after it boots up, i get maybe 5 minutes to play around and then the home screen crashes. It reloads, finds a signal, media scanner running etc, just like i just turned the phone on. Before I can do anything, it crashes again and repeats forever. Its not boot looping though. But it makes the phone useless.
This happened last time i tried the 12 lockscreens mod (im on calkulins 2.8.1), so i had to wipe and reflash calks rom since my backup was bad. Then i made another backup to be safe, which is working. Today i tried flashing blu kuban by rujelus22. Same thing happened. Which makes me thing there is a deep seated issue somewhere in the phone.
Every time i flash a new rom, i wipe cache and dalvik, and format system. I also tried a factory reset. Nothing solves my problem and I cant find anything similar anywhere.
I really hope one of you has a brilliant idea for me because I really love this phone, but If im stuck with one rom forever I would be a very sad panda
BTW i have to thank all the devs for all the sweet roms and hacks, you guys rock
Download calkulins wipe all.zip
Run that then try to flash your rom
Also in CWM run the fix permissions option....that usually fixes alot of issues
