Help help Help Please - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

on my phone i tried updating to the Mean bean and of course i didnt read it all i used the flash apk app to get the rom wiped data all that installed fined boot animation came up and evey thing and i found out you need to be on latest firm ware and wich im not and my phone did not boot and i have nan droid back up is there a way to flash a new kernel in adb or no ? please helpp im s-on 1.15 and yes i still can go into recovery

You need to be S-Off to get the updated firmware. Without S-Off you would need to RUU and take the OTA to get the firmware. Read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671577&highlight=ruu
To flash kernels while S-On download from Market "Flash image GUI" extract the "boot.img" file and push it in with this app. Then immediately go to recovery and flash the ROM zip.

All you've got to do is fast boot the kernel, the firmware is recommended not a necessity

Mean bean has s-on kernel installer so maybe that's not the issue

it may not be but when i was s on i found that the kernel did not flash right every time best i can say is to start over wipe system and data it is a os upgrade and is manditory then flash rom if still a no boot fastboot the kernel. or let the raccoon out of the fridge to get s off not that hard to do
fast boot
This looks long, buts its just the initial setup too
If you aren't familiar with doing things from fastboot, chances are the first thing you are going to need to do is properly setup the folders to carry out the fastboot flash command. This setup is going to take the most time and after you have it all set up its very quick to do after that.
Setting up ADB:
1) Download the mini-SDK here and move it to something like C:\Android\platform-tools
http://androidforums.com/attachment...90-adb-guide-updated-12-05-2011-sdk-tools.zip
It contains:
adb.exe - Windows adb utility
fastboot.exe - Windows fastboot utility
fastboot-windows.exe - Windows fastboot utility
AdbWinApi.dll - adb link library for Windows
AdbWinUsbApi.dll - adb link library for Windows
These files will be used to push the boot.img (contains the kernel) from a ROM to your phone via fastboot.
2) Download your ROM and open it,
3) Copy the boot.img from the ROM to the same folder as the mini SDK you've downloaded.
4)Plug your phone into the computer via USB and power the phone off. Then press volume down + Power to get to fastboot
5)Once there, we need to open up a command prompt in the location where your sdk-tools are. If you are in windows 7 you can just shift+right click to select "open command prompt from here"
If you don't have win 7 you can manually move to the file location with the command cd to change directory.
6)Once you are in the correct directory you just type in
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
and hit enter
7)reboot
or use this choose the JB only version http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1917106

HELP!!! I think i bricked my phone!!

OK so I have the Sprint EVO 4G LTE with 1.22.651.3 on it, rooted, S-ON. I have the Team Win Recovery Project v.2.1.8 on it as well with hboot 1.15. I tried loading the newest rooted software 2.13.651.1 710RD and voila.... paperweight. I tried reloading 1.22.651.3 and nothing. I can still boot to the bootloader and TWRP recovery, but nothing seems to work and now because sprint screwed up and removed my total equipment protection service from my plan, I don't have insurance on the phone. PLEASE HELP!!!
You just need to flash the kernel, extract it from the Rom (boot.img) and place it in adb folder, connect phone I'm bootloader and type fastboot flash boot boot.img
You can also flash meanrom, it has a working kernel installer, just let it sit because the kernel installer does take awhile 5-10 minutes

Can you explain how to do this in greater detail? I'm experienced only enough to be dangerous to myself lol
This program should install the kernel that you need. If not you are supposed to be able to swap boot.img files that it will install.

This is for the One S but it's the same process for our phones also.
Sorry I've been in a low coverage area and just got home. Open the Rom, extract the boot.img, open adb folder or SDK, hold shift and right click, select open command window here, connect phone in fastboot and type fastboot flash boot boot.img
So I tried to use that program to flash the boot.img from the fastboot screen but the computer wouldnt connect to the phone... now what?
Boot from system into hboot and fast boot while plugged in via USB. Helps your PC determine drivers.
Also, if you need a guide for setting up adb/fastboot, Google a YouTube vid by qbking77 on how to unlock galaxy nexus bootloader, it links to a great tutorial.
from my flying AOKP'd Evo LTE and xda premium
do you have SDK installed on your computer? If not install it. Go through the setup (set up your your environment variables) for fastboot.
Make a copy of the boot.img from a ROM of your choice. Place it in a folder on your desktop name the folder (android) leave the folder open.
Open cmd
Type cd Desktop press enter
Type cd android press enter
Type fastboot flash boot boot.img
After that it should say sending then OK
After that go into recovery then flash the ROM
you should be good to go then...

The full SDK is not necessary, just the debug tools
ADB Tools
Also you can directly open the command prompt from within the folder by holding shift and opening the context menu (shift+right click) then select open command window here
i keep getting a message in windows "usb device not recognized" so i switched usb cables and finally got that program to load the boot.img file, then flashed a rom in bootloader but its still not booting... any ideas?
Did you make sure to wipe the phone first? What rom are you trying to flash?
wiped phone first and now trying to flash 2.13.651.1 after loading boot.img thru that program
you have to find a way to update your twrp to version 2.2.0 cause this is the culprit that gave you the issues. did you make a backup try doing a restore to get back up and running then download goomanager from the google play store and install the latest twrp here is a video to update to the latest twrp through goomanager.
twrp downloads I dont know if you have to be s-off to install in bootloader or not. maybe someone could clarify that
ok so i tried flashing twrp 2.2.2.0 and got a message saying "main verison is older" then it said "update failed!" which is weird since i had version 2.1.8.0 to begin with i think.
anyone? any ideas? I feel like my only resort is to have it replaced
You could fastboot flash the recovery image. Thats how I usually do it
So download the recovery image from twrp website and place it in your a dB folder. I don't have my PC but I think the command is fastboot flash recovery "recovery image"

this should be the correct code to type

[Q] stuck in hboot

I rooted my htc evo 4g lte and have twrp installed, and tried to flash a rom, when i rebooted it always takes me back to hboot screen and is stuck there, won't actually boot up. I am able to go to recovery and use twrp including usb mount (maybe a zip i could flash to help). I have searched for awhile but haven't found any real solution for my phone yet.
I have S-on, no external sd card.
If you need any more info just ask.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Extract the boot.img from the rom, place it in adb folder and put phone in fastboot
Type fastboot flash boot boot.img and restart the phone

Thankyou so much for the fast reply, and fix!! I did what you said and it worked! The funny thing is that it was my first flash, is there something i did or should avoid to have this happen to me again? Any way I am so grateful and now am going to try out team venoms viper4g 2.0.2 new rom!
If others have the same problem and want more detailed info about what I did:
1. downloaded sdk manager developer.android.com/sdk/index. html opened the program and installed platform tools
2. Since I have twrp I put into recovery and mounted usb found the zip of the rom i wanted to flash opened it found the boot.img and copied it to the folder where platform tools where installed (C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools)
3. got back to hboot screen
4. opened cmd to the folder by typing: cd then file path like mine above
5. then in cmd typed fastboot flash boot boot.img it will do its thing
6. restart phone and hopefully work for you too!

If you are s-on, the kernel won't flash with the rom so you have to flash it separately like om4 showed you. Some roms, like MeanRom have modified their install script to automatically load the kernel to avoid this extra step.
The latest Mean installer failed for me, as did the latest Viper, something to keep in mind if you try those and they don't boot

cant get restore to boot

Was running cm10 did a a wipe and restored to previious rom, and it won't boot.. Just boot loops.. Anyway to get my phone working again> I can access recovery still
most likely an s-on issue, you need to flash the kernel separately in fastboot. it has to match your backup's rom base

Can you go in detail for me please
You need the boot image from the Rom you made a back up of, it has to match the base at the time of the backup 1.22, 2.13 or what have you and it needs to be flashed in fastboot. To do so you need the mini SDK (adb tools) or the full sdk. Place the boot.img (kernel) into the directory and open a terminal. Navigate to the directory or open it directly in the folder (windows) by holding shift and right click and slecting open command window here. You then boot to bootloader and connect the phone in fastboot. Type devices to make sure its connected and then fastboot flash boot boot.img and reboot
Easiest way is download flashgui and then download meanrom and open up meanrom via flashgui on phone and flash the stock kernel then boot into recovery and then flash your.restore and wala!!! That's what I had to do being s on

[Q] EVO stuck in bootloop

Alright, so i have an EVO 4g lte and i attempted to root it today. It didnt turn out very well to say the least... I unlocked bootloader and flashed TWRP recovery.I then flashed superSU, and at the same time i flashed a custom rom and gapps zip. Then hit reboot. It has not booted up since.. It will just sit at the white HTC screen. i tried clearing cache and Dalvik cache, also did a factory reset. tried flashing cm10 rom onto the device as well as a rooted stock rom. nothing works! the farthest i have gotten was with the cm10 rom and it went to the cyanogenmod boot logo but was in bootloop still. I downloaded the ADT tool bundle but the phone wont show up on the device list. Can anyone help? im completely stumped.. Im fairly new to rooting and custom roms, but i have rooted multiple tablets and samsung galaxy phones and havent had any issues. this is my only phone also, i just gave my backup to my mother because her phone broke... please if anyone knows how to fix this let me know. when i boot into recovery mode it says Tampered and Unlocked at the top as well as S-On. I can also go into TWRP recovery with no problems. just cant use fastboot with my computer (windows 7 PC).
I am pretty sure i know what i did wrong, I flashed SuperSU to gain root at the same time i flashed the custom rom and gapps.. on all the other devices i would reboot after root and then flash the custom rom seperately.. but is there a way to correct my mistake?
Since you are s-on you have to fastboot flash the boot.img/kernel first and then flash CM and gapps
Any questions PM me
OK sorry to be a noob but how do I do that? I used cmd.exe while rooting but now it won't recognize my device. Much thanks for any help!!

Sounds like a driver issue
1.Uninstall everything HTC from your PC
2.Reboot your PC
3.Plug your phone in and it will load a bunch of drivers
4.Try the command again
If that does not work get the latest drivers from HERE use the ones dated 6/6/13
and don't forget the BMP drivers towards the bottom of post 1

PC and phone are talking ?
fastboot devices
yes they are talking now. fastboot devices and my phone shows up.
i tried fastboot flash boot.img but it wont recognize the command, i placed the boot.img file into the platform-tools folder inside my C drive. what am i doing wrong? its late at night and im frustrated so i know im screwing something up...
ok good BTW which version of twrp are you using? Let me know before you continue.
pull the boot.img from the rom zip and copy it to the folder you opened your cmd window from
then type fastboot boot boot.img
once it says successful press the power button to return to HBOOT and use the vol keys to navigate to recovery
Once there choose wipe and wipe cache/dalvik cahce/system/data or factory reset depending which version of twrp you are using
then flash CM and gapps
C:\Users\Corey>fastboot boot boot.img
cannot load 'boot.img': No error
thats what i typed in and thats what it said back to me. not quite sure what the problem is.
the boot.img is placed in the same folder as the fastboot application

same thing, cannot load unknown error. also i am using twrp 2.6.0.0
Ok lets try something different at least it will get you up and running
Get twrp v2.4.1.0 from http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/jewel
put it in the same folder you are using and we will downgrade your twrp for now
copy and paste this in the cmd window
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.4.1.0-jewel.img
then fastboot erase cache
ok got the twrp done succesfully as well as the wipe cache. whats next? i think i figured out what i was doing wrong, i hadnt opened the file directory. cd downloads, cd android files, etc.
should i try going into recovery now on the phone and flash a rom, or should we stay on fastboot and push the boot.img?
Easiest way to open a cmd window is to press shift and right click inside the folder and choose open cdm window here
That way you know you are in the correct folder.
Yeah go ahead and try to flash the boot.img again

If you can get into the recovery and have a valid backup then in that case restore it and restart the process. Else you can boot into fastboot and flash the desired boot.img the process will be
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot

Well you do need to have the Android SDK tools download but if you select the "Platform Tools" at the SDK manager , that will only install the platform tools on your hard disk. and yes the device drivers needs to installed , to work with ADB ,
Any ways this tutorial by LUCKY_THIRTEEN just might help you

I hope this adds to this post if I miss speak I apologize in advance but I do not have the time or knowledge to post 10 times before strating my own thread so if this doesn't add value to this post, I have been reading and researching all week and now that I cannot use my phone I must intensely focus on this until it is fixed
Fed up with 4.3 and lower limitations and looking to get my monies worth on my phone, I look to upgrade to 4.3.1 or higher just started this week so I am a total newb, and if it means anything to anyone I would be happy to donate to contributors via papal once a solution is found I am a working professional and I am happy to pay you to save my time/phone
with that said here is what I have done
HTC One X+ (AT&T US) Quad Core Tegra 3
OTA upgraded 4.2.2 Android Firmware 2.15
Unlocked BL via HTCDev
Was using;
Recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.7-enrc2b.img
With intent to upgrade to 4.3.1
Used the following Rom and GAPPS to load .zips via CWM
cm-10.2.1-enrc2b (stable)
gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip
Did not work
Tried more recent gapps
Did not work got stuck on Circling Cyanogenmod screen
//goo.gl/YzZ75o
THEN
I realized I was not flashing boot.img taken from the CM 10.2.1 zip so I followed directions to use the boot.img then load the zip files, since doing this I can no longer use my recovery
Erase Cache (from fastboot)
COMMANDs:
./fastboot erase cache
./fastboot reboot-bootloader
Results:
White HTC “Quietly Brilliant” Screen for a few seconds then turns off
Plug in charger and Red light turns on grey empty battery symbol appears with a lightning bolt inside then disappears
red light turns off :-/
//goo.gl/JrBJph
Current state: I can fastboot, but I cannot load recovery
//goo.gl/43F6XT
Also, if I can get back into recovery
The last time I was in it, last night I believe I reformatted my internal SD, because when I was looking for my backup, and my zips they were all gone...I was very tired and should haven't pushed it.
I don't care about loss of data I just need to get my phone working again, thanks for your time and careful considerations
UPDATE+++
Used WinDroid HTC One X+ Toolkit 3 to flash custom recovery CWM 6.0.3.7 back in recovery again, now I think I need to side load a ROM because I deleted what I had internally

Fed up with 4.3 and lower limitations and looking to get my monies worth on my phone, I look to upgrade to 4.3.1 or higher just started this week so I am a total newb, and if it means anything to anyone I would be happy to donate to contributors via papal once a solution is found I am a working professional and I am happy to pay you to save my time/phone
with that said here is what I have done
HTC One X+ (AT&T US) Quad Core Tegra 3
OTA upgraded 4.2.2 Android Firmware 2.15
Unlocked BL via HTCDev
Was using;
Recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.7-enrc2b.img
With intent to upgrade to 4.3.1
Used the following Rom and GAPPS to load .zips via CWM
cm-10.2.1-enrc2b (stable)
gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip
Did not work
Tried more recent gapps
Did not work got stuck on Circling Cyanogenmod screen

THEN
I realized I was not flashing boot.img taken from the CM 10.2.1 zip so I followed directions to use the boot.img then load the zip files, since doing this I can no longer use my recovery
Erase Cache (from fastboot)
COMMANDs:
./fastboot erase cache
./fastboot reboot-bootloader
Results:
White HTC “Quietly Brilliant” Screen for a few seconds then turns off
Plug in charger and Red light turns on grey empty battery symbol appears with a lightning bolt inside then disappears
red light turns off :-/

Current state: I can fastboot, but I cannot load recovery
//goo.gl/43F6XT
Also, if I can get back into recovery
The last time I was in it, last night I believe I reformatted my internal SD, because when I was looking for my backup, and my zips they were all gone...I was very tired and should haven't pushed it.
I don't care about loss of data I just need to get my phone working again, thanks for your time and careful considerations

ummm your flashing the X+ International CM rom and not the evitareul one, reboot into the bootloader and then enter recovery from there.

evitareul? Does that mean Flash TWRP recovery and then use evita ROM?

Ok, from what I can tell I think I have to go with this?
[ROM][2/18/2014][AT&T X+ S5 eXtreme V1.0.3.3]
I will be very happy if I can get this to work, and I will just "stay tuned" for when I can flash a stable 4.3 or higher for my phone
Under downloads I see the following: (would post picture but still too n00b)
S6 eXtreme RC1
S5 RC2 Patch
Native WiFi
Hotspot Patch
S5 eXtreme
V1.0.3.2
S5 eXtreme
V1.0.3.3
I am not sure what to download here, I will continue reading these directions as I believe this is my best option, please confirm if I am on the right path, thanks guys!
Update+++
Downloaded S5_eXtreme_V1.0.3.3_Signed.zip
about to flash this ROM, is GAPPS included in this?
Update+++
Downloaded S5_eXtreme_V1.0.3.3_Signed.zip Rom
Extracted the boot.img file and followed instructions
Extract boot.img from zip file and place in your sdk platform tools folder, (or wherever your adb tools are located)reboot device to bootloader and connect it to your PC.
From a command prompt type:
1. fastboot flash boot boot.img
2. fastboot erase cache
reboot to recovery and flash ROM.
but I am not sure how I flashed the ROM, I tried sideloading from recovery with WinDroid HTC One X+ Toolkit, before and after and it said no package loaded
Then I tried to load from fastboot, finally I figured "well I might as well reboot" and amazingly enough it booted...not sure what exactly but I am back on 4.2.2 so thank you!
