Every time i try to install and Ics related Rom my phone says installing apps since its from Ics and it also says updating and when it finishes booting it restarts and it does this every time i install a Ics ROM and i let it boot up like 10 times and the same things happen. Anybody with a similar problem and a fix. And yes when i installed the Roms i wiped the phone data and cleared Dalvik cache and cache and battery stats i did every thing you're suppose to do with all of these Roms.
Whenever I install an ICS rom, my phone will boot until I see the wallpaper, then it reboots and repeats. Havent found one that works.
I am using 4ext to flash
superwipe has been used
I was going to try some anthrax kernel, but it has now vanished...probably wouldn't have saved me.
I might just have to wait til next month :'(
Im on hboot 1.5 <----- even though it was assumed
I hate to ask but did you flash boot.img separately? That seems to be the big problem with some users on hboot 1.5. Also our current firmware doesn't support 3.0 kernels I believe unless you are on the leaked version which I think was modified to run. Don't install the VM firmware though as a lot of people have lost certain functionality with there phone.

well no i just installed zip from SD on clockwork mod 4.0.1.4 and ik about the horrible vm leak and the ROM that i use and that i was trying to replace was ZR3D gt 3.0 ROM. Also i have s-on just in case that work and how coincidental that one of the roms i tried to install was newt one s like the one u have but RC3 can u tell me your info (way u rooted, s on or off etc.) i really want newt one s and booster shot.
Us s-on ppl can't use the new roms to their best functionality... why you ask.?
1. Because almost all the ics roms use HTC Linux 3.0 stock kernel
2. Our s-on hboots are not happy with the stuff in 3.0
You can use chad's htcleak test kernel (invix me your email) and the rom will work buuuuut there are some issues with that!!!

Depends on what rom you are using. I think you should download twrp-shooter-2.1.0.img recovery since its an ext 4 touch recovery. Try flashing the rom using that recovery. Also if you are using an Newt S One rom make sure you have the patch and the boot.img that comes with it if u are using the earlier versions. IF u do u must flash the rom then the patch and boot into fastboot and flash the boot.img adn it will boot your phone up. Other thatn that try flashing ics roms using an ext 4 recovery. Hope this helps solves your problems.

Hi guys, so yesterday I decided to take the plunge and unlock my evo 3d with htc's tool. It seemed to work as expected (s-on with unlocked banner). I was then able to flash cwm 4.0.1.4 and root using the su zip floating around on here.
My issue seems to be that aside from the nandroid backup I made all the roms I have tried break wifi giving the wifi error instead of on or off. I tried synergy rom, viper rom and viper rom with silverneedle. I also noticed when I was flashing in recovery it would say unable to mount sd-ext and it looked like under the settings> about phone> software information that the kernel had not changed.
I'm at a loss as to why, but I think it may be related to htc's unlock method, although I am fairly noob and may be totally wrong. Any help is appreciated.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Since you used the HTC method then you have the newest OTA updates and bootloader. Your banner should say S-OFF though if you had a typo above about that.
You cannot flash a new kernel yet with the new hboot. You need to stick with the stock one for now.
When flashing other ROMs are you doing a complete wipe first? If not, that might be your problem.
Go to the Development section. Many useful instructions and guides are there.
That's what I was afraid of, but that wasn't a typo. My bootloader says ****UNLOCKED**** with S-On. I was reading that this was what was to be expected with the htc unlock though.

If it's still letting you use Super User and says you're rooted then it should be OK I guess. The main thing is when switching to a completely new ROM you should always do a full wipe - everything except sdcard.
There's a superwipe zip you can flash in recovery that will do all the necessary wipes for you.
I was wiping data/cache and dalvik cache. I'll take a look at the superwipe zip. I'm ok with stock rooted for now but it would be nice to use roms at some point.
Sent from my Shooter using XDA App
Yeah just wiping cache and dalvik isn't going to work. New ROM means backing up apps (if you want), then full wipe. That will wipe the system and data too (and I think android.secure and sd-ext).
Ok. Finally got everything to work. I used superwipe but I also had to use one of the synergy nightlies based on 2.3.4 to get my radios to work properly. Currently running synergy build 331 and it runs great. Thanks for the help

I have the same problem:
wifi error
Kernel doesn't change
Also my Android version now shows 2.3.3
Can you please tell me how you got it fixed?
Sorry I'm a noob... Details would help. Thank you
if you upgraded to HBoot 1.5 and used HTC's unlocker you have to install a 2.3.4 ROM or the WiFi and possibly 4G radio will break. If you are interested in Synergy ROM try their RLS1 build or any build version 319 or newer
i cant post a url here cuz i am still a new user on the forums but go check out the official nightly folder linked in the following thread:

hi, i have a 3d evo with s-on & h-boot 1.50 and i used gui to flash silver needle & went to recovery to flash viper rom and the phone keeps rebooting and i have read other posts and tired to flash other kernals & roms and nothings working. even tired to use my friends phone and tired to use his back-up but didn't work. any new ideas?? thanks in advance
My Evo 3D has been doing this consistently with the new kernel from the OTA update (I use MeanROM though), but I have seen others on Stock report the same.
It was doing it annoyingly constantly every couple hours when I would just not actively use it.
Now though it has settled down a bit and I'm wondering if it's not a bug but a feature? Because almost like clockwork every night it will reboot on it's own late at night. if I'm using the phone..it won't do it..but it seems to wait for a period of long idle time or something.
I have only had this issue on Kernel 2.6.35.13. Check and see if that is your kernel version as it's the newest one that is blazing smooth and fast (stock) and why I have chosen not to flash another kernel over it yet.

i can't tell what kernel on here, its i flashed silver needle and then the rom and it nevered booted up.
I had the same problem using ROMs from XDA. Found that I used RUU to back to stock and it stopped. Haven't had a single reboot since I went back to stock where I would get reboots constantly, to the point the phone was useless.
Since I have S-Off, used the root patch to get root access, but only can be done with S-off...

nobody has asked this yet... so I will...
are you on the latest version of viper? silver needle is a 2.3.3 kernel... viper is 2.3.4.
that is your issue if that is the case. flash a kernel that is meant for that build.

i tried to do the ruu step and none of the verisons workked, anybody have anymore ideas?? this is were i downloaded the ruu's from for sprint http://www.filefactory.com/f/4ef0ef536face67a/
I bought a Rezound on ebay, pre-rooted/unlocked with the leaked ICS / Sense 3.6 ROM (besides that, pretty much bone-stock)
I decided I wanted to try out a different ROM and make sure I am familiar with the process before I try to do the S-OFF process....
Well, I found that the first thing I needed to do to upgrade to (insert ICS/Sense 4 Rom here) was to upgrade to the newest Firmware (3.11.605.22), and I am currently on 3.11.605.01 ... I followed their instructions closely to update the firmware ( re-lock , load new FW as PH98IMG.zip , flash it , unlock, etc)
Well, that didn't work for me, when I got to loading up hboot and it automatically updating the FW, it didn't do what the instructions said it would, it showed a dark blue bar near the top/right, waited for that to complete, then same thing but yellow, that completed and asked to reboot, but would only reboot to fastboot...
eventually I unlocked it again and it allowed me to return to my ROM (normal ICS/sense 3.6)
Sorry about this short story... lol ^
Basically I cannot for the life of me install any rom with success... I can't even restore the nandroid I made last night (before any of this) with success..
the CLOSEST thing to success I got was installing newts One XxX sense 4 rom, it booted, and will sit on the lock screen just fine, but when I try to unlock and go to settings to turn off animations (like instructed) it will freeze and reboot....
DO I need to install the newest FW???
OR what do I need to dooo?
Pls help! I am fairly familiar with android, as I had a D Inc before this, evervolv ICS etc etc....
Thanks alot anyone !

If you want to go back to a GB rom you need to reflash the boot image that came with it. If you want a sense 4.0 to work you need to flash the old firmware patch. For the patch I have attached it. Flash it via recovery and your rebooting on a sense 4.0 rom/ new firmware rom should be gone. (don't forget to follow the OP for Newts rom about disabling animations btw) for the boot images look to the op of the rom you are running.

Ok thanks for the reply, I did install the "old firmware patch" included with Newts XxX Sense 4 ROM, and I can successfully get the ROM to boot, it doesn't operate very well, and only for a few minutes because it will freeze and reboot. It doesn't allow me to get to the settings, no matter how fast I try to get there, it ALWAYS freezes before I can access the setting :/ ...

Do you know by chance any good kernels for an ICS/Sense 4 ROM?
the stock one was draining faster than it was charging (while plugged in lol)
So I tried out the 1.836 OC kernel and it seems to be working fine, but I am interested more in battery life than performance right now, coming from the DInc, this phone is buttery smooth and doesn't REALLY need OC just yet (for me anyway)
Thanks for the help by the way!
I am having issues with Wi-Fi on Venasaur ROM. The wi-fi will attempt to turn on then will give the message Error. I understand this is most likely due to the Wi-Fi modules but I am having some issues with fixing this.
What I have done:
I was prior running RezRom S4, so I re-locked my hboot and flashed the latest leak 3.14.605.5 ICS Rom to my device. From here, I un-locked my bootloader again, installed a custom recovery, performed Scott's Super Wipe x10, installed Venasaur Rom 3.1, and the Sense4boot.
I have tried flashing the Wi-fi Modules from the 3.14 leaked ROM, I have tried flashing another set of Wi-Fi modules I found on the Venasaur ROM thread but i'm pretty sure I was using the wrong ones there. I also have tried using Root explorer to replace the file manually and reboot the device as well. No fix..
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
you should not be trying to install the wifi modules on the ivy rom... try to reflash the sense4.img to see if that will fix it
are the wifi modules on the ivy rom based off the latest kernel from the 3.14.605.5 leak ruu?
Also I'm having some issues finding the ivy rom...did you mean ivysaur?

Download the latest ivy Rom 3.1 and open it wit root explorer or on ur computer and flash the boot.IMG from there n fastboot it....if I used an old boot.IMG ull get the error WiFi ...this fix my problem. So it seems u need to flash the newest boot.img from the Rom.zip or else it won't work

Thanks for the help. The night I posted this I realized my error...I pulled the sense4.0boot.IMG from the prior build of the venusaur Rom so that's what killed WiFi for me...also explains while the libs didn't work haha...
All in all for others to know...I just did a flash of Scots clean wipe x10, installed venusaur then on my computer pulled dinosaurs boot.IMG out, and flash it through fastboot "flastboot flash boot boot.IMG"
Noon mistake on my part. Totally been working with custom setups for quite some time, so out of force of habit with the majority of the S4 Roms thought I needed the S4boot.IMG ..

Just what the title states, I have just switched over from HTC sense based Operation Jelly Bean 3.15.651.16 to Official BlakCM. My EVo 4gLTE is s-off and rooted with latest TWRP 2.5 for recovery. I followed defection as how to install this particular ROM. What I am not sure on is the kernel. Do I need to install a custom kernel to run this Rom properly and which one if that is the case. I also have the latest base band 1.12.11.1210 installed without TP firmware upgrade. Thanks
You don't need to run custom kernel to run cm10 roms. You can if you want to and komodo is the only one I know of
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
It's not necessary to flash a custom kernel (in this case Komodo), but it does make the ROM even better: battery life almost doubles (on the stock ROM I'm usually at about 18% by 10:00 while with Komodo at that time I'm still at 45% or so), it also helps boost the audio volume and you can use swipe functions on the capacitative keys to turn on the screen (swipe from the left to right), turn off (inverse of the turn on function), increase and decrease volume (swiping halfway) and other functions.
Oh forgot to mention: flash the ViperBoy voltage fix. When I first used to flash it I'd get all sorts of random reboots and such, but since I flashed it it's so much smoother and doesn't reboot randomly

To flash the custom kernel do I drop it on sd/root like a firmware upgrade or flash using recovery/zip method, also for the voltage fix.

Which version of Komodo? I was reading the carbon thread a while back and remember Jamie saying a certain version for Carbon. Unfortunately I can't remember which version he said...probably have to search the thread again. I'm hopping back and forth between sense and aosps right now so I'm interested in trying this rom again with a different kernel as well.

Thread also mentioned that others had success installing rls31 capped at 1.998 with no gestures and rls31 capped at 1.5 with no gestures. I have not tried installing these versions yet.
Ah, I want to say rls29 was recommended somewhere back on that thread. I haven't tried any of them yet though.
