Got a replacement evo 4g from best buy today and went to root it. Everything was good until I went to install new rom (*non sense evo deck 1.3) I must of forget to clear something because now my phone is stuck on the EVO white screen. I can boot into bootloader, but can't boot the phone or recovery it hangs in limbo on the white screen for forever. I'm hoping its a cache issue. Is there a zip out there that I can use to clear the cache and data by renaming it to PC36IMG.zip or another method? Should I try re-installing ra recovery? Thank you for any help.
Fix White Screen Hang Evo 4g
OK found a fix for my Evo 4g HERE It was suppose to remove root but that didn't happen which is perfect. It just reset everything and I was good to go again.

I tried installing the vanilla lock screen but it got stuck on a boot loop. So I went into recovery, wiped data, cache, and dalvik, and tried reflashing the rom but now its stuck on the htc EVO 4G white screen. Tried several times already. Not too familiar with this stuff as I had someone else root my phone for me.
Edit: Nevermind I got it. Still with the HTC lock screen though. Not going through that scare again. What did I do wrong? All I did was flash the .zip I got from fresh's website that removes the htc lock screen and world clock, and installs the vanilla lock screen and got stuck in a boot loop.
I tried to restore my backup and it says restore complete but it says sd-ext.img not found. Skipping restore of /sd-ext.img
I have an EVO and this was my first attempt to flash a custom ROM. Now when i try to boot the device it just continues to cycle on the HTC EVO 4G white screen. Can anyone help me get the phone back to some working form? Thanks so much
I ran into the same problem tonight. Don't know if I should do a factory reset (if that would even fix it)...or if there's a simple solution to this problem.
evo stuck on white boot loop screen
i have did everything i possibly could evo just keeps going back to white boot loader screen. Initially i was trying to update to new software with a manual update of the pc36 file to sd card did it twice and now my evo is going back to bootloader screen every time i try to factory restore. i should have stayed with my iphone instead of dealing with all the android hassles. any help pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees.
Went into recovery and wiped data, cache, dalvik then went to install Fresh 3.4.0.1. It was done installing and I gave it a reboot. At first I thought it was just the first time installing a rom that was making it take forever to boot up, but I fell asleep and just woke up, and that definitely wasn't the problem. It's still on the boot screen with the white background and black htc EVO 4G. I haven't been able to get into bootloader so far.
Any ideas?

I had a similar problem once. I would just get stuck at the splash screen no matter if i tried going into recovery or just normally booting up. What fixed it for me was to just take the battery out and leave it out for 5 minutes. Try putting it back in, booting into bootloader, then into recovery. From there try wiping everything and then installing Fresh again.
Also, make sure you are using Amon_RA recovery, as it correctly wipes everything.
yea try that what he said. take the battery n try it one more time n see if that works
I have a rooted Incredible and I have some issues with it right now, i tried to restore the backup i created and i get an error, i have wipped everything from the phone and i cant get it to reset to factory. Any ways to help out with this?
What issues are you having? If all you did was root the phone and that was all, i highly doubt that the issues are because of root.
i attempted to install vanilla skyraider, i backed up the orginal skyraider and now when i tried to restore the skyraider backup i get a error
Please help me, I have messed up my phone pretty bad. When I rebot my phone it goes through the normal process (Skyraider is the ROM I am using) and after the boot is finished it should proceed to the home screen but instead it takes me to a screen that has the Andoriod Logo and says tough andriod to begin, the catch is when i touch the logo nothing happens. I have attempted to factory reset to aviod the screen but i still get it back! Please help! Im in need!!

You don't have a functioning backup? Then I would try wiping everything (wipe data/factory reset, cache and dalvik cache), re-downloading and flashing the ROM (any of your choice), the file might have been corrupted some how. Good luck
I had a backup and when i went to restore it through clorkworkmod recovery it doesnt work and i dont understand why,
My friend tried to flash a rom to his EVO 4g, everything went smooth, installation was a success. However prior to rebooting, he know gets stuck in a blank screen after the evo 4g screen goes away. Anyone ever get this problem ? is there any way to start from scratch?
Reboot the phone into recovery ( pull battery if it's in a bootloop, then restart phone by holding vol-down and pressing the power button)...
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache
Reflash the ROM
Ps: what ROM is your friend trying to flash? Be sure it's a Rom developed for the evo (not calling you or your friend stupid...mistakes happen)
He was using salvage zin, I essential there watching like I prolly should have lol but he got impatient and downloaded the rom then went into recoverey wiped data and all the others and then flashed and then got stuck in a black screen and what do you know he's calling me saying I have a problem lol, I'm trying to drink not fix his phone man lol but now I feel bad, I'm a good listener if I'm giving instructions. I'm a nexus s user though so is new to evo by the way

Is there anyway to Odin back to stock ? Or perhaps himdell back?

If it's a black screen and then the phone boots, there's probably just something wrong the boot animation. If it won't boot then he might have a bad download.
