HTC EVO 4G SD Mount / S-ON ???? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i was on my to school to take a quiz and which i wanted to switch to the ICS ROM tiad from the released CM 7.2 RC1 , as it was doing its thing, the system froze on me in the middle of the android-secure telling me it could not mount the SD card..
The only thing i could do was to reboot the phone.. well that did it i think.. (started my issue)
Now my phone only boots into the ICS ROM and its all waked with missing apps etc.. so i go back to recovery to retry this,, where i see the sd card cant be mounted... and not to mention the securtiy NOW SAYS S-ON!
WTFD!!!! how did this happen?
well now im stuck with a phone that works but NO SD CARD NO RECOVERY and UNROOTED? ????
i tried formatting the sdcard.. but it dosent see it,, i tried clearing back to factory defaults.. tried to remount to the computer as a disk drive but it wont work because problalby of the sd card..
man im at a loss.. i dont get it.. it has worked flawless with everything i have ever done..
is there anyway to get back my sd card so i can bring this phone back to the way it was?
the computer wont even see it.. so i cant use the unrevoked3..
im scared to take this phone to sprint since it has s-on .. but it has a later radio etc.. (not to mention its starting in the ICS rom)
any ideas?
im thinking of taking the sdcard and formating it on my gfs samsung galaxy.. ...would that work?

Have you tried to mount and unmount and mount SD from settings? Or try booting without SD just to see what happens. Then boot with SD?
Your recovery can't mount SD?

Ya nothing,, i checked everything i can think off.. what im trying to do is connect to the phone via usb.. hboot. fastboot... using the adb shell.
The problem is nothing will see it..
When the phone boots my computer thinks its a QualComm CDMA Technologies MSM .. so nothing will see it.. the only time i can see it correctly is when i have it in the hboot USB plug.
The security (S-ON) is on now.. which is really crazy to me.. i dont understand why it would come back on like that.
Its like the phone finally saw that i was flashing roms and it decided to turn security back on and unmount the sdcard so now i cant mount it back in.
Its like i got locked out.. so now i have to try to find that driver for qualcomm maybe i could use the adb shell and unblock the sdcard. if infact this is the issue..
the wierd is i can get into the clockworkmod 5.0.2.2 recovery so i could reflash everything but if only the sdcard was mountable.. LOL
i really hope its the memory card.. i could finally stop going crazy here..
the other thing is when i sometimes reboot it vibrates 4 times in sequence.. .what does that mean?
its like the beeps you would hear from the BIOS of a computer when there is memmory missing.
maybe thats what its telling me there is no Sdcard lol
oh man .. time to smoke a bowl.. i need to unstress....

BTW my phone is on all the latest radios etc...
so i cant downgrade to a lower hboot when its at 2.16

Did u put the card in a card reader and format it, then get a pcimg36.img and flash back to stock everything then reroot

No, thats the last thing i can try .. im waiting for the gf to come home so i can format the sdcard with her phone

Ive actualy had this happen myself before, not the s-on issue but the recovery not being able to recognize the sd, telling me it couldnt be mounted etc. Your recovery got corrupted I think. basically what your gonna have to do is this:
1 Run the gingerbread ruu for 2.3.3 assuming thats what stock firmware you had? I think I saw you say you have 2.16 hboot which should work fine with this ruu. your gonna lose everything except whats on the sd card. and It'll set it back to stock. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884060
2. use revolutionary to re root your phone, let it flash cwm and all that jazz, then download the supersuser.zip and flash that through recovery and update superuser in the market. http://revolutionary.io/ http://androidsu.com/superuser/
3. flash amon ra recovery for the htc evo 4g. flash through the bootloader
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705026
4. delete your nandroids and backup a new fresh one.
Its alot of work and it sucks that you have to do this but this is how I fixed any of my issues ive ever had. just dont flash the 2.3.5 ruu vuz revolutionary wont work on that firmware and you'd have to use a different method of unlocking and rooting etc.

WOOT IM BACK AND RUNNING!
Thank you for that.. for a min there i was ready to loose it because i thought the phone was brikked....
I new not to blow a gasket and just wait for someone to post

Awesome. Glad to see ya got it. XDA is is truly the best country in the world.

Please help I messed up my girls white evo!!!

So my girlfriend just got her white evo yesterday and so I tried rooting it the same way i did mine through toast ....but it couldnt find files on the sd card so I didnt get to finish and once it booted back up the phone wouldnt read the sd card and wouldnt connect to the pc so i use the same method I used when My evo did the same thing using the Calkulin guide ..and got the phone to read the sd card but when it came to the second part ..nothing happened and it couldnt find the files again and now it wont charge unless the phone is off ..I tried re-rooting it but still get stuck after the p>>36 update.. ..but it wont help ..please help
Does she have the latest OTA update?
You could download it in update.zip format, put it on her SD card, and use it to bring her back to stock.
From there you can use the new root method (or SimpleRoot2) to get root and put roms on it.
Thank you ...where could i get it from and does simple root2 give me a full root ?
You can use the RUU from here and will put your phone back to stock.

Yes it should fix your problems unless its hardware issues. But more than likely its software.
And 2 yes, you can still use the dc 3.2.3 Rom.

SD / micro SD card reader?
You can use a media / card reader, or you could swap your microSD card from her phone with yours and move the files to it that way. Once you get it flashed back to stock you should be able to connect via computer again. Good luck!

Tried to downgrade to stock. Help

I rooted and installed the leaked OTA. After hearing about the possible 2.2 I tried to downgrade the radio. Something messed up along the way and now I'm stuck with an incredible that is showing no internal memory (won't even let me save a picture), will not read an SD card and keeps rebooting when I remove the usb cable. I'm stuck in a real hard place. If anyone can assist me in restoring my phone and how to go about it, it would be appreciated. Also it is now showing my phone as an unknown device when I connect to the pc and I can not get into adb.
Can you reboot into recovery? (power off, then hold volume down while powering back on) then select recovery?
If you can get into clockworkmod recovery, we can get you back up and running.
do a hard reset. if that doesnt work, take it back to vzw and make up a story on how it got the way it is.
TIP: i dont think you can downgrade the radio.

I started following this tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeuiURZZZds and after trying to run 'flash_image misc mtd0.img', it said I did not have enough memory so I just unplugged the phone and tried to reboot, but it brought me to the recovery console and it's the stock one. So the stock img was able to install. I don't even have clockwork now. I should have left it alone. I have a constant sd card icon with a ?.
just hard reset or ruu . if this doesnt work, then i think you bricked your radoio. do you have 3g?
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
Jd is right. Just ruu back to the leaked ota. If you can get to stock recovery you should be able to ruu. Once your back up and running we might be able to help you downgrade. First things first.
Just tried the hard reset it was a no go. I have 3G service and I made some calls to make sure it worked. After the hard reset it is still showing the sd card icon with ?. For the RUU do I need any drivers because the phone is showing up now as an unknown device.
Just give it a shot.
ruu is the way to go. your problem is more sever than hard reset fixijg.
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
P.s. If you follow the downgrade tutorial by "IncredibleDoes" you can use an sdcard adapter and put the card into your pc (since your phone usb drivers aren't working), copy the "pb31img" file over, then reboot back into hboot, and it will put you right back to the original stock in one step.
If you have a card reader on your pc, turn the phone off, put the card in the pc and make sure it's formatted properly. Then put the ruu file on the card. (Follow the instructions in the unroot sticky topic.) Then put card back in phone and boot into stock recovery. It should apply the update.

hows the ruu going?

I'm still trying. It's not looking good. Hboot is still version .79 after I flashed the stock img. I'm probably going to have to call it a night for now though. I'll be back tomorrow to trouble shoot it some more. I'll write more after I try it again. Thanks for the help tonight!
of you need additional help feel free to pm me anytime.

Hboot is NOT going to downgrade....no matter what you do. The stock (pre-ota) rom will run fine with the newer hboot version.

Yes it will downgrade, as the ota leak is a newer version of .79. that is, if you follow the procedure right.
Also, yes you can downgrade the radio, in response to an earlier post.
If you got out of memory type messages running through that method, then you did it wrong. Maybe you tried it outside of clockwork? I haven't watched the video to do it, but seeing how I made the original post for it, I know it works.
Interesting! I wasn't aware of that breakthrough (hboot downgrade).
In that case, I suggest ruu'ing back to the leaked OTA (so that your USB and SD are both working again), then try following the instructions that adrynalyne referenced.
Good Luck.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=727263
I ruu'ed the img. The phone starts up and works normally. Except it still shows the internal and SD card memory as unavailable and the usb restarting after removing the cable. I tried to reload the leaked OTA through recovery, but it gets an error saying the file is not on the SD card.

If your fully rooted, your best bet is to just try flashing another ROM. Do you have a micro SD reader to put it on the SD Card from your PC. Since your saying it won't mount with USB-MS Toggle.

Try using the PC36IMG.zip that's at the bottom of this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=829045
It's the most recent one and that's how I fixed a problem like this.
I was trying to unroot and I accidentally used an older PC36IMG and it only overwrote my hboot before failing. So I was stuck in the bootloader. Other than finding the right PC36IMG, I also found that if you remove the wrong one and select HBOOT, it will let you choose Recovery (which is only useful if you've been rooted before). If you're just rooting for the first time, just use that PC36IMG.zip and let it reset everything. Just pop out the sd card and use a card reader on your computer to get it on. I didn't find any way to mount my SD card without getting into a custom recovery.

I don't think HBoot USB is supposed to mount your SD card. I could be wrong, but I think it's a way of streaming your rom over the USB cable that we don't have access to.

Only problem is getting the PC36IMG file onto the sdcard.. This PC shows me with media but it doesnt show me the files or any way to get to them..
Okay my printer has an SDcard reader and i have one of the micro to normal size things so ima going to see if i can get into it from there but your saying i should try to use the new PC36IMG file thats my best bet?
Or would my old HTC Hero be able to use that card and connect with it? I dont wanna **** that phone up too i may have to call them to get service on it for a day if i cant fix this..

[Q] I need help

Early this morning, I rooted my Droid Incredible using the Unrevoked 3 method. After doing so, I completely forgot to create a nandroid backup and went ahead to install a custom ROM (Cyanogen Mod). Now here's the issue. I want to get back to the Stock 2.2 sense. I tried to unroot my droid, but nothing seems to be working. Can someone please help?
You need to flash a stock rom back before unrooting.
Where can I get a stock ROM. I think I just bricked it now because it won't even boot Cyanogen Mod. It's stuck at the HTC Incredible white screen.
Do you know what type of screen you're using? Slcd or amoled ? Each method has a different way of unrooting. Just in a Google search engine type in who to unroot Droid incredible, and then the what screen it is. You can potentially brick your phone if you use the amoled method on a slcd one.
With the amolcd screen it's as simple as finding the right file, hence doing the search engine. When you get the file, all you have to do is just place it in the root of your phone, and turn off your phone and press and hold the power button and the volume button at the same time.
With slcd you have to do it different way. Assuming you haven't messed with the radio, if you did, you have to flash a 07.28 radio. But assuming you didn't touch that, you have to flash something that puts s-on. Ans then after that you have to put a file into the root of your SD card and then flash appropriately.
Now I did this multiple times, rooting and unrooting, and for some reason there's always so
Something drawing me back into rooting and flashing a new rom. There's no greater satisfaction than knowing you can do anything with your phone. But it's entirely your choice.
Oh yeah, to figure out what screen you have go to settings then about phone then hardware information and 002 is amoled and 003 is slcd. Google is your best friend after you figure out what screen you have. Good luck!

You haven't officially bricked it until you can't power it on at all. Try taking out the battery and then holding the power button and volume down. If you can access the white boot screen where it gives you a choice of accessing recovery there is still plenty of hope. Don't freak out you haven't bricked your phone
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
I can't load anything. The farthest I can go is to ClockWord Recovery, and when I try to reboot the phone, it's stuck on HTC Incredible. That being said, I can't check what screen type I have. However, before it was bricked, I did flash a file to make S- on. And, when I tried degrading my firmware, nothing happened. :/
OK first off the name of the first that you flash should start with a "p" I don't exactly remember the exact file name. Make sure you have s-on, I'm sure you do. And then put that p something file into the root of your SD card. root as in, it isn't in any folder.
Now when you flash this, you don't do it in clockwork recovery, you do it through hboot I believe. Hboot is the white screen when you hold on the power button and volume down. It should automatically read the p something file. And it'll ask you if you want to update. Say yes and then just let it install

Sorry for the double post, but I just followed some whacked-out tutorial that told me to format everything via Clockworkmod Recovery...now when I boot my phone, it goes straight to HBOOT and won't do anything...
OK what can you do exactly, you can get to hboot and what else. Also when did you buy your Droid incredible ? We might be able to figure out which screen you have based on that. Oh yeah and where did you buy it from? Also, even if you can't mount it you can still easily take out your SD card to flash files that way. Don't lose hope, we can still get back to stock

Ok if you have a card reader for you SD card load it in and open you card on your PC. You need to make sure that the sd card is in FAT32 format otherwise when you try to load the PB31IMG file it wont read it. To check this go to my computer, find the removable drive for the SD card right click and go to properties, you should see what format its in. If it's FAT format copy everything from your sdcard to a folder on your PC, go back and right click on the removable drive and format the card to FAT32. Then of course copy everything back to your card. Then try the PB31IMG file again in hboot.
I would personally just go in recovery and wipe to factory, then choose the option to install zip from card and install the rom or which ever rom you want so the phone loads again. Good luck!
For now, I'm going to flash a new rom and hopefully I can fully boot my Droid again. Afterwards, I'll try to flash that file again. BUT, the first time I did it, I put it in the root of my SD card and booted HBOOT and nothing happened.
EDIT: This ROM is going to take close to 30 minute to download , so I guess I'll be back in 30 minutes; don't leave me please.
do you have a sd card reader? if you do, pop out your sd card and make sure it's format is FAT32, nothing will happen if it isnt FAT32

Specs: HBoot 2.10
Radio: 2.15.00.07.21
S-Off
3.29.651.5
I am a noob at this so please be nice, I also get the radio_v2 fail-pu when trying to update the phone, I'm not sure if i have the right PC36IMG file, thank you for your time!

I don't even recognize that as any radio I've seen for the Evo. The last one ended in. 11.19 or something like that. The one before that ended with. 01.09 I believe. I don't recognize the one you used. Are you positive it was an Evo radio...? Your situation doesn't sound good though. I would try running an RUU from fastboot, but if you did flash a non evo radio, your probably in trouble...someone correct me if im wrong and that is indeed an evo radio.

Have you attempted running a 3.29 RUU?

Download the 3.29 version, boot your phone into the bootloader, select fastboot, connect to your pc. Once it shows fastboot usb on the phone, run the ruu exe.

Can't he place a PGimg.zip on root of his SD card and fastboot from his phone to return him to stock s -off ?

He can place a PC36IMG form of the RUU and do it that way, but if he wanted s-on, he'd need to flash the unrevoked s-on tool from recovery, which he can't get to.

Ok hi. So here's the deal:
My EVO can boot into bootloader, and it can get into recovery. Cool right? NO!!!
here's where the problem starts: I installed a corrupted ROMand of course, like every ROM, I wiped everything before flashing that one, and ended up not having a system to fall back on... And now the only thing I can do is get into the Bootloader and recovery.
The following issues I'm having, and the thins I have tried are:
1. I have tried putting the PC36IMG.ZIP at the root of the sd card.
- That didnt work though, and I figured that would only make sense, due to the fact that in recovery, it says "E: cant mount sd card"... So why/how would it work in bootloader?
2. It says "wrong image" when it tries to update the IMG file
3. I'm not a complete noob, I am willing to try ADB, I just dont know the commands to use :-( and IDK what to "push" or, even how to get the computer (PC, NOT a mac) to recognize the phone since it's... well, borked, I guess.
4. I' guessing that's the ONLY way to truly fix the phone and flash another ROM... is from the PC? But if so, HOW? Please help me.

Make sure your sdcard is formatted FAT32.

fastboot reboot
Use these commands through adb

Hey that sounds like it would work, but my question is...How do I get the phone detected on the pc, if the phone cant read the sd card? You get what I'm saying? Like, what buttons do I press to enable the USB to be picked up on the computer? Thnks a lot man.
That happened to me. You have to hold BOTH the Vol+ and Vol- Buttons at the same time until it starts vibrating. You also have to connect it to the computer in order to make it vibrate.
EDIT: You have to take out the battery while plugged in. Sorry for forgetting
When u put the PC36IMG.zip (named exactly like that) on your SD card, are u sure it wasn't named PC36IMG.zip.zip or any other variant of the correct name? Use a card adapter to put file in main folder of SD then put it back in phone. Then boot to bootloader n test. What recovery did u have installed when you tried to flash a radio? Clockwork will not flash radios
