I'm experienced when it comes to rooting/flashing roms... I'm on sprint tho but I just got my girl a Evo fully flashed to cricket, the phone is rooted but the guy at cricket said if I start flashing tons on it, it could screw up the cricket flash. Is this true?

ok well i flashed synergy rls1 on her phone and it went fine except she cant send or recieve pictures anymore... So i thought i'd flash energy on it cuz thats what im running and the second she signs into google and facebook it sends her phone into bootloops. So i guess cricket evo's are hit or miss..... I would love some advice cuz her phone should technically be identical to mine but it's like a complete mystery to me. Anyone with a "fully" flashed to cricket evo any input here would be greatly appreciated.
You have to use epst in the dialer to get mms working I believe

ok now i really need help! It was working fine until i flashed energy rom. Now i can't restore back to synergy it ust keeps bootlooping... I am knowledgeable I have experience with rooting many phones and i have an evo on sprint but I got this phone for my gf as a christmas present and she's on cricket. I bought it fully flashed running some 2.2 rom but i thought she'd prefer synergy so i flashed it. It's not bricked cuz i can still get into recovery just fine. I have no experience with phones flashed to cricket and I know ebough that i screwed up her phone. PLEASE someone that knows what I'm going through help me. :-(
just wipe, flash whatever rom you want to run on it, and to restore MMS do as mentioned already and use EPST to edit the MMS server information. All roms for the EVO pretty much assume you're on Sprint not another carrier.
I would try that but the phone just keeps randomly rebooting. Some roms even send it right into a bootloop. Could it just be the phone and have nothing to do with cricket? Even so if I can get it to stay on for over a minute she gets calls and texts perfectly fine so I don't see how it could be a hardware problem either...
are you doing full wipes including the dalvik cache?
maybe you should try the full wipe flash from caulkin(?). I've never needed it but it sounds like you aren't wiping your device enough.
also what recovery are you using? I think some roms don't play nice with Clockwork if you're using that.

I have been using an EVO on cricket for several months now and have flashed just about every Rom available. I would suggest using armon recovery and team nocturnal wipe zip. For your mms the easiest thing to do is use go sms. You can enter your cricket settings in it. As far as losing my flashed settings that has happen once, but I flashed again using info from the jimminy cricket thread. Also just a heads up Sprint based roms won't give you voicemail notifications.

I've been using amon ra recovery and have been doing full wipes every time before I flash a rom. I haven't tried flashing a superwipe tho I'll try that right now.
Ok so flashed superwipe and delete&format then like 5 times each then did factory data reset and flashed synergy and first boot was fine setup was fine, made calls/texts fine then 10 min in while simply setting up my home screens it started rebooting maybe 8 times before it finally stayed on just long enough for me to power it off without having to pull the battery. Still haven't figured out what's wrong with this thing.
I think I've narrowed it down to mobile data... if i keep 3g/mobile data turned off it stops rebooting. Does anyone know why that is?
If you have decent pc knowledge I would suggest reflashing. Although if you are unsure of what you are to do after reading all the info then dont do it!

I flashed the ROM a few nights ago and followed the instructions regarding flashing the new Radio pack but after noticing that 4G just wouldn't turn on I tried going back into recovery and flashing the .zip again. Still didn't work.
Eventually I restored the previous backup because of an unrelated data-loss incident. I restored the backup I made of Warm and tried re-flashing the radio .zip but it still wont work, anyone care to point out what I'm doing wrong?
I've tried searching the ROM's thread but "4g" must not be long enough to search for, and "radio" yielded no help either. I would've posted this there but evidently I need 10 posts before I can post to the Dev forum(A new rule?).
Thanks for reading!

As it turns out, last night I was able to turn 4g on, but I'm no longer able to do it now. Anyone know what's up?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I had the exact same problem as you. This just happened out of nowhere which is even more weird. The rom was working fine and then all of a sudden it just stopped allowing me to turn on 4g. I get the scanning then disconnect really quick. Or I get turning on and turning off over and over again. It shows really quick.
What I did was I flashed back to stock with an old nandroid. I went to a area without 4g and tried to let it connect. Of course it couldn't. I then updated my profile 4 times. I flashed back to another rom and it is working again. Still a little buggy but way better than not being able to connect at all.

Did you go back to Warm? And what profiles are you talking about exactly, and what does that do? I like this fRom a lot so I'd hate to have to switch.

I have been bouncing back and forth between his and mikfroyo. You go into settings and go to system updates and update profile. When it's done hit ok. Do that a few times and restart the phone. See if that works. It took me days to get mine working again. I think it was from flashing from rom to rom all the time and updating and upgrading the radio's that caused the problem. I don't think it's his rom that is causing it in my case at least. Good luck
My standard process when flashing roms and kernels has always been and will be when im done with the flashing . Setup widgets and where I want them , apps , general settings etc etc etc . Then perform Update Profile followed by Update PRL . When those processes are done I usually let the phone settle down some then do a reboot . Again let the phone settle down from the reboot . Then check your 4G connection it should work . My only advice is to stick with roms running off the newest radios . That way you cut out flashing radios causing possible issues with 4G .
So i am having issues with this ROM and was wondering if anyone is having the same issue. Well i see that my awake and run time are the same and spare parts is showing 100% usage on the CPU.
ive tried using all the different kernels to no success.
any help would be appreciated.
Myn's warm 2.2 RLS 5
updated radios
kings 11
I've installed Myn and my 4G doesn't work. It switches between on and off really fast and then sometimes it'll go further and scan, connect, disconnect, and repeat.
Specs: myn's warm TwoPointTwo (RLS5)
Baseband: 2.15.00.11.19
Kernel: 2.6.32.25-netrarchy-toastmod-4.2.1-cfs-bfq-havs-more-smartass
PRI version: 1.90_003
PRL version 60674
NOTE!! I've already checked if my RSA keys have been lost and they haven't.
Any tips would be grateful, I'm going to flash Fresh tonight and hopefully it works.
Jj, and SouthernEvo, thanks for the tips! I cracked the glass on my phone and just got a replacement, when I flashed the radios I didn't get the images the dev said I would: "While the radios are flashing you'll see a little green arrow phone icon for a bit afterwords, Wait on this. You will then automatically be taken back to recovery."
If this time around it doesn't work again I guess I'll try flashing a re-downloaded Radio package!
running_onCode, seems that we might be having the same issues, did you notice anything strange while flashing the radio package? Like I said on this second Evo, when I flashed it I paid attention and didn't get any green exclamation points.
I have this problem as well. I've used the app that checks for the RSA keys and it says I'm good. I've also checked via a console app.
What happens is exactly like everyone else here. Once the WiMax radio is turned on it'll scan for 3-5 seconds, then it says connecting to Sprint for about .5 seconds, then it says disconnect, and repeats. I've flashed and reflashed with the latest radio pack at the top here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485 . I did that so I could run Myn's Wyrm RLS5. H boot has not been flahed ( think I have a really old version). I've tried different ROMs and there is no difference. I tried going back to my previous ROM and it still didn't work. I tried updating Profile and PRL 5x and doing a shutdown>reboot and there was no change. Any help would be great.

Yeah, it seems like we do have the same issue. I'll flash Myn's rom when there is a fix for the 4G or maybe it's just our phones? I got tired of waiting so I flashed MikFroyo and everything is working. I was using 4G a couple minutes after leaving my house yesterday.
Yeah I'm thinking of just flashing another ROM, can't get much help without posting to the ROM thread itself and I guess I can't do that anymore!
It's too bad though, the first time around I had amazing battery life, but this time it's a lot worse
Are you using Titanium Backup? I had the same problem when I used TB, I would wipe everything, flash Myn's rom and them restore all my apps using TB and 4g would not turn on at all, RSA keys were intact but no 4g. I actually did a Nand backup before running TB and after using TB and trying to restore Nand 4g still would not work!
It actually took a while before I figured out it was TB borking the 4g (3-4 installs and reboots). I had to write down all my backed up apps and download them one by one
Hope this helps!

I doubt it is titanium, I had the same problems with RLS 5 not getting 4g. Have used titanium on Calks, Mik, and Azrael without having 4g scanning / disconnecting issues. There was a fix for this a couple weeks ago, somewhere. Too much for me so I moved on. Ricsim said that battery life is 97% driven by the kernel, not the Rom.
Bump! Anyone?
Done lots of searching, so if I have missed something, feel free to point me to the thread I've been looking for, thank you!
With Amon RA: I have just flashed Synergy RLS1 with Warm Sprinkles, and decided that's the rom I am gonna stick with for awhile. I have also flashed Lithid's .8 More-Freedom kernel (the universal one, is this the correct one?) and the phone has booted up successfully. Ok sweet.
So now: my 4g is broken, and my sense launcher keeps force closing every time I unlock the phone. Everything else works great! I've tried flashing a few different radios, cleared/wiped all cache and data multiple times. Reflashed Synergy twice now. What am I missing? Most people seem to get great results from the synergy/freedom combo.
You can try to fix permissions with ROM manager or from ra under other/fix mismatch uid or what ever its called.

i will try both of those, thank you!
Okay, the Wimax radio powers on now and scans. Says: Connecting to Spring... > Authenticating with Sprint > disconnected > Scanning...
So I figured my phone just wasn't provisioned because of all the rom flashing I have been doing, right? called sprint and everything shows up fine on their network. They want me to take it to the store to fix the issue. Hell. No.
Hey whats up guys...im really not sure what the problem is but maybe some one has experienced with before..
My droid incredible cannot connect to 3g service...i tried installing all different kinds of roms even the latest gingerbread releases but still nothing.
Some times i allows me to connect to 1x but then you see the "3g" on the top but then it instantly disconnects.
Ive so tried 3 different radio from the NIS business sense release...all failed..
Any ideas?!?!?
Or if i just need the stock radio??
Aloha! I'll see if I can help.
1) Do a nandroid backup in recovery.
2) Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache then flash rmk40's gingersense leak: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087077
3) Reboot and skip set up. Turn on 3G and even test it out for a bit. You should have whatever signal you are used to having return.
4) reboot into recovery and wipe cache, then go into advanced and wipe dalvik cache
5) Restore your latest Nandroid backup
Let me know how this works.

How would this fix any 3g issues by flashing a new rom and then returning to you old Rom with a backup? I seem to have an issue changing from 1X to 3g causing me to restart my phone at times to pick up the 3g signal again.
Primarily, the people who noticed this issue were/are folks who try out the various gingersense roms available. I've been a member of XDA since January and haven't noticed users in large numbers have issues with 3G until these roms came out. Whether it's due to there not being an official base or what, idk but many users have had these issues with 3G since the May unofficial gingersense leaks:
1) 3G being present and fully functional then disappearing from the notification bar altogether even while still being enabled in Settings
2) 3G signal dropping down to 1x and not displaying again until you perform a reboot.
I have experienced this issue and know this resolved it. This rom as well as Incubus26jc or JoelZ's stock OTA gingersense leak, for whatever reason, are a solution to resolve the 3g drop issue not the only solution. Incubus26jc, JoelZ, and Nils each have recommended and note this is a fix. My (non-fact and own) answer to you would be I believe since these three roms are the unaltered and "(un)official gingerbread Sense" files, they recorrect the 3G signal that is going awry.
Try it and let me know how this works. You don't stand to lose anything except a few minutes haha
This solution fixed my problem.
Dang it actually worked. Wish i had done this a while back. Thanks for the simple fix.
Not a problem, I'm just thankful there's a fix.
Accidentally worked for me too
I had the same problem on CM7. Flashing back to my stock 2.2 Android backup fixed the problem. Flashing back to CM7 and OMGB caused the problem to return. I am on the leaked ota now, I have flashed the gingerbread radio, and I am having no 3g issues. I wish that I had found this thread earlier.
Had this exact issue with synergy rls1 and was also told to flash the rom above to fix it. It worked for awile but then 3g issues would return again, even on non sense 3 roms and even on my old virtuous nandroid. If just flashing the above rom works for you and permanetly fixes it thats cool, but if your like me the only fix is to revert back to compleet stock and i mean compleet stock rom radio recovery boot img everything the only thing not stock would be you still want to have s-off as a matter of fact make sure to check you are s-off before going stock. Once stock you need to do a factory reset from the settings menu. What this does is it compleetley wipes your phone back to stock including wiping vzw programing, wich is the key to fixing 3g. Once your phone reboots from the factory reset you will be prompted to dial *228 option 1 to reprogram your phone. Once reprogramed your 3g will be fixed. From there flash clock work or amon ra recovery and then restore your favorite nandroid or install a new rom. I personaly would stay away from sense 3 roms as after fixing mine with the above steps i not thinking installed another sense 3 rom and broke 3g again making me fix it all over again. I have stayed away from sense 3 and havent had any problems since. Note if you have a compleete stock nandroid you can just flash that then flash stock recovery and radio do the factory reset .....

If an ruu and a factory reset with new programing didn't fix your 3g issue its possibly hardware related. Can you still connect at 1x speed?

No, I called Big Red and they're sending out a replacement phone. I'm one of them weird people that don't use their phone as a phone too much, but I realized that I couldn't make or receive phone calls or texts either. We got that issue fixed, but they couldn't get the data working.
I guess the world of root is gone for me since it will probably come with Gingerbread on it already. Oh well, I'm probably going to buy a new phone in December anyway, so I'll have a new Dinc to put away in the drawer.

Thanks for the link to the root method. I have been studying it and I have all the files downloaded just waiting.
Edit: I did get an OG Incredible, but it came with Froyo on it. I should be good to go as far as rooting it goes. I think that I have an SLCD model though which sucks.
Ok the other day I did a *228 update and ever since then my 3g won't connect. It barely will stay connected with 1x. I had the synergy ROM at the time. I changed to nils business gingerbread since and it still didn't work. I also flashed my radio and still nothing. Any help plz
Sounds like you'll need to reflash a stock rom. This is a pretty common issue and there are a lot of threads on the subject, it's why you don't *228 on sprint based roms. Flash the stock rom, then the rom of your choice.

Hes right check the synergy rls1 thread for posts by me i had the same issue and there is good info there on how to get 3g back. Also i gave up on synergy because of this problem. Even aftet going back to stock and factory resetting and fixing it as soon as you reinstall synergy and reboot a couple times 3g breaks again, even if you dont do a *228. However i will say doing a *228 is what started the issue in the first place. Something is messed up with synergys epst.

I think you can flash the Gingerbread leak and it will fix 3G issues also.
i just received the newer evo with hardware 4 and gingerbread installed on it, i rooted the phone using the new root method and installed mikfroyo 4.62, the wifi is not connecting right or wont connect, ive tried at home, school, and a friends house, is there something i can change like wimax, NV, Pri, radios...just throwing stuff out there, but you know what i mean, anything like that, that i can change so wifi will work again??
Have you tried reflashing the rom? Did you install on a clean install?
Did you flash a custom kernel? Sometimes an incompatible kernel will mess with your wifi.
