Can you flash boot.img from fastboot? If you can flash the boot.img from Negalite zip. Can you enter 4ext recovery? Try reinstalling the drivers.

hi,
i am new to rooting but i tried and succeed and now i really want to try yas4 rom, and i also downloaded and
installed successfully but after rebooting my device, it sucked at htc logo, i tried different kernel (mirage
& howpathetic) via aroma modifications but no use, perhaps device is having bootloop.
my device details are
htc evo 3d x515m, GSM, fingerprint asia/india
shooter_u, hboot 1.53.0007, radio 11.25.3504.06_M, OpenDSP-v02.6.0.2226.00.0202, unlocked & rooted but s-on
(as this rom is s-on compatible, so i didn't try of s-off it)
if anybody knows, how to install this rom, kindly help.
thanks in advance.

What recovery are you using? Download this and flash it from fastboot. Enable 4ext smartflash and reflash the rom. If it doesn't boot again extract the rom and flash the boot.img from fastboot. If you have any question quote me to get notified.

it works.
a big thanks bro, it worked. I earlier used clockworkmod recovery but as you suggested when i used 4ext recovery with smartflash enabled, it worked in first try, thanks a lot.:good:

Hi, I have a HTC EVO 3D, HBOOT- 1.53.007 that's stuck on bootloop after I tried to install PACMAN. I didn't get the S-OFF...don't know if this could have contributed to that.

So you have to reflash the 4ext and download a rom. You can find Here the 4ext recovery. Flash it through fastboot and after that you can enter 4ext and flash any ics sense-based rom and your phone will boot.

What is this?

ok so i was running leedroid 5.4 with leedroids kernel, on my evo 3d GSM with hboot .0011 Unlocked and S-ON.....things were fine untill i tried to flash some other roms like shooterbeats and infected eternity rom, i was not able to get past the boot logo on both of those roms so i thought maybe it has something to do with my s-on....so i decided to make it s-off....after reading s_superman's thread for about 2 hours on how to downgrade hboot to .007 or 8 and unlock using revolutionary....i gave it a go, and did so sucessfully NOW MY HBOOT IS .007 with S-OFF using revolutionary and CWM but i am not able to FLASH ANY ROMz ON some roms my phone hangs on BOOT logo, and on some roms it restarts after LOGO appears........its really frustrating after so much hard work ,,,what i get in return is this...feel like throwin it outta window....ANY HELP WILL BE MUCH APPRECIATED ON HOW TO RESOLVE THIS issue?
now in recovery it shows "revolutionary HBOOT 1.49.1107 S-OFF RL"
well fortunately for you, sir, all is not lost....
flash twrp recovery 1.1.1.... just to get a start.
i have never had one single issue with twrp 1.1.1. if you are s-off, you can now flash kernels through recovery.
quick recap, flash twrp 1.1.1, reflash ROM, and kernel. both of which from recovery. if you still have booting issues, flash the kernel through adb.
do that, then come back and we'll go from there.

Please Help, Evo 3D won't boot pass the htc logo

So I tried flashing MeanRom the ics version onto the Evo 3d, and it flashed it. But every time it booted into the lock screen it rebooted itself. So I tried going back to the back up I made. But did not work, tried flashing a different rom but did not work also. It will go into recovery which was twrp but switched it to Ext4. So whatever I try it will just go into the HTC logo and get stuck there. I am at a loss, Please Help.
I will keep trying, but I'm running out of ideas
it does have s-on

I had this exact same issue after trying to flash Myn's ICS ROM with Touch Recovery on 1.5 s-on..How I was finally able to fix it was to delete the 4 ext folder off my SD card. Then I booted into fastboot and pushed TWRP recovery back onto my phone and flashed a gingerbread rom. If you need help pushing the recovery via fastboot, this thread is the answer. Be sure to give JTNiggle some thanks.

Doesn't EXT4 Touch Recovery take care of that for you? That was my impression. Off topic, I know..
evo rebooting
yes 4ext recovery takes care of that and you guys should be using it and make sure you have smart flash enable
I did try flashing a gingerbread rom with twrp but didn't work, which is why I flashed ext4
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
Well I used the dumlock method, which should have helped me flash the rom without manually going into my computer to flash via cmd right?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
Happens to me too!
To flash a new ROM, go to your computer, Command Prompt , type in the direction of your recovery. ex= cd\evo3dTWRP, then type in "fastboot boot recovery.img (or whatever the name of your recovery img is), press enter and your phone should boot into Recovery. Wipe all data, then flash ROM.
BTW: Do you have Smartflash Enabled in 4EXT,?
Well bootloader is working and the recovery is too, I used twrp but noticed it wasn't working so I flashed 4ext. But for some reason it won't boot up roms (of any kind) or even restore my backup. The recoveries will restore or flash the rom. But once I reboot the phone it will just get stuck on the HTC logo. Yeah smartflash is and was enabled.

If you're trying to install an ICS ROM, they tend to bootloop for most who are s-on. I recommend you get s-off.

ICS ROMs Give Me Bootloops!

I have tried to flash both Mean ROM ICS and viperROM ICS, but all i get is bootloops. I get to the main screen but all it does is reboot and say Android is Upgrading. BTW: S-ON HBOOT:1.5 Recovery:4EXT Smartflash ON
This is how i flash a ROM
1)From Fastboot boot into 4ext Recovery
2) Install Modified_Superwipe
3)Install the ROM

Hm. Maybe just try manually wiping everything from recovery instead? I never use superwipes and as long as I factory data reset x2, wipe cache/dalvik x2, I never have issues. That's just how I've done it on all my phones and I never have issues.
I just flashed Newts One S RC3. It took me a while but I finally found a method that worked. I did it once and got through set-up and was in play store downloading apps when it went into boot loop. I tried the same method again and it didn't work. I messed around with different methods for a while before getting the following to work.
What I'm using:
HTC Unlock method
Hboot 1.5
S-on
cwm recovery 4.0.1.4
I used a computer to fastboot to recovery. Did factory data reset, wipe dalvik, and cache all x2. I installed the .zip rom file from SD card. And then installed the .zip anthrax ics RLS5 kernel file from SD card. Then I rebooted and so far everything is working fine. I've been running it for a couple hours now. I manually downloaded my apps one by one from the play store for fear of repeating what happened to me the first time. And I've just finished signing in to everything I use and haven't had an issue yet.
I hope this helps.

Yes i herd about this but have you tried charging or connecting your phone to a computer, many people can't charge or connect to computer via USB because of this kernel
Idk before I sent my phone in a had been using that kernel. I had no trouble charging/connecting. But really what it comes down to is every one of these phones is different, then you throw in the hboot and other key factors and it just gets worse.

Turn off smartflash if you are s-off you dont need it.
Then flash chads htc leak rls1 kernel, that stopped all the bootloops and problems for me its something about the stock kernel i am guessing. Everything worked fine after using that kernel. Anthrax rls5 says not to use it with sense 3.6, its right on androidfilehost. Chad said to use the leak rls1 instead for sense 3.6.
boot loop
wonder why every sense 4.0 ics rom i try to flash to my htc evo 3d... it always boot loop, i done tired everything everyone told me and the same thing happens.. only thing that really works on my phone is gingerbread... any suggestion??? really would appreciate it...

In my case I can't get any ROM based on the leaked RUU to boot unless I changed the kernel, this applies to both 3.6 and 4.0 ROMs. I don't know if you're GSM or CDMA but I know the kernel from Shooter_Ice works for me which is a GSM ROM. I can flash that over just about any ROM and it works or I can install the ROM straight up and it works to. If you're GSM, try that, if you're CDMA then look for a similar ROM that isn't based on the HTC leak.

ICS ROMs bootloop if you are Hboot 1.5 S-On (which you are if you unlocked via HTC). I recommend you get S-off using the wire trick or downgrade to 1.4 S-off. See the stickies in the CDMA Development section (or GSM development) to find information and steps on how to do it.

+1, go s-off and you can flash anything you want
Loop FIX
Sometimes you will get boot loops even with 4ext.
One thing that I have found which works is flashing mean ROM 2.4 ICS as a base.
This ROM probably will not boot or will get stuck in a boot loop but that is fine in this case. From there on use 4ext to complete a "dirty install" of another ICS ROM. I recommend SOS De-Sensed Rom. Sometimes flashing a ICS ROM on top of another ICS ROM (booting or non booting) allows for install.
to bypass all the bs go straight to fastboot and flash 4ext recovery 1.00.5 and do the s off wiretrick and then try to flash the rom... when you get s off it releases more permissions for the kernel to flash to the rom without having to use flash image gui from joekrimz
try this
ok you need to flash the boot.img file trough the bootloader, if that doesnt work try flash image gui
Flash custom rom then pull out your battery, go to fastboot then try flash this boot.img with fastboot http://db.tt/kEUVhnvV

recovery loop

Okay I think I have got my phone caught in a recovery loop. I go into cwm recovery to install zip from sd card but it just goes to the cwm logo and nothing happens how can I fix this ? I hope my phone is not bricked ?
Try a different recovery. CWM likes to cause issues. Try 4EXT or TWRP

How would I do that, If I start up the phone it just sticks on the HTC screen, and then if I go into bootloader and load recovery mode I cant choose going back to the rom that worked, it just stays on the cwm recovery logo when i try to flash back to the rom that worked.

It was when I was trying to put a custom ics rom on it that it stuffed it up. Do I have to update the kernel version before I do that in the future?
Like If I am trying to update to this rom, I am not sure what this means "Virtuous Eclipse is currently based on the leaked HTC One S RUU 1.53.401.2" How do I get that on my htc evo

You don't need it on your EVO. That's the basic framework of the rom, you don't need to update anything
Since, like me, you're s-on, you need to extract the boot.img from the rom, place it in your fastboot directory, and use fastboot to flash the boot.IMG
Fastboot flash boot boot.img

I unlocked my HTC 3d Evo GSM Uk phone and installed ClockworkMod Recovery v 5.0.2.0 and tried to install a ROM. Now phone is stuck at HTC boot screen. I can go to fast boot but recovery is not possible as phone goes to yellow circle with hat image and nothing happens. Any help Please please please
Download the ruu for your phone. If you have unlocked bootloader you will need to do this a little different but for now.. get the ruu. Boot into hboot then go into fast boot.. connected your phone to your PC and run the ruu.... this will take you back to factory.. it is possible to dissect the rom and customize it all but that is something to worry about another day

What hboot do you have? Are you S-ON? If you have 1.53.xxxx hboot then you can install only roms available for this hboot (mostly ICS based on stock Sense, but sense 4.1 available too). Flashing with 4ext recovery with smartflash enabled is the only option if you are S-ON. To install any other rom you must S-OFF your phone.

So, do you have adb/fastboot drivers installed on your computer? If not install them and reboot your phone on fastboot mode. You need fastboot executables from AndroidSDK (from google developer site) to install the 4ext recovery. Download the recovery here and move it on the sdk folder on platform-tools. While on fastboot open a command prompt on this folder (right click on the folder) execute the command "fastboot flash recovery 4EXT_Recovery_Touch_v1.0.0.6_RC1.img" without the quotes, you can rename the file to whatever you like and change the "4EXT......RC1.img" with the name you choose. After the flash completes you must reboot on recovery using the volume buttons from fastboot. Go on settings and you will find the 4ext smartflash, enable it. Search for roms on development and try them, if you like sense the only supported roms out there is I think Yet Another Sense and mwakious3drom. Otherwise you can choose a senseless ICS based on sense or MIUI rom.

This time I am using YAS v11 and it's very good a week now. I used cm11 and cool ics. I like the mwakious rom for its features but I don't want sense 3.6. If I had to choose between theese I would choose YAS because I like the sense interface and its the only sense 4.1 supported by devs. You can always try yourself some roms and see which suits you. If you have any boot problems, unzip the rom, take the boot.img and flash on fastboot like the recovery, this time with "fastboot flash boot boot.img". For any aosp roms you need to downgrade your hboot and s-off your phone.

Many Thanks mhnx, there was a problem of boot which was solved by fastboot flash boo boot.img way. Hurray I got my phone back, thanks to you. was able to install YAS4 v11. Dont know about other roms. Is there any other less painful way of flashing roms.
How do I can install original HTC 3D EVO Rom and in this the 3D features are not working in camera.
Thank you again

To flash other roms from 4.1Jb and up you have to s-off and downgrade your hboot. I really dont know why your camera doesn't work, did you perform clean install (wipe etc.)?? If not try to do it. For stock rom you must run the RUU for your carrier model of phone. You can find on our forums the RUU you need. I' m happy your phone is back to life.

In reply to your inquiry about the stock rom, I've found over my months of lurking that many links don't work. This is the best site I've found so far for RUUs, and the one that personally took me back to stock today when all else had failed:

I hope you do not mind, that I also ask a question related to yours:
I encountered a similar issue today, when I tried to flash a new ROM. I followed mhnx's instructions and updated my 4EXT recovery from 1.0.0.5 to 1.0.0.6_RC1.
My bootloader states:
*** UNLOCKED ***
SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.49.0007
RADIO-11.25.3504.06_M
OpenDSP-v.02...

Every time, when I try to flash a new ROM (including formatting all partitions except sdcard), the phone (GSM) just shows the HTC logo and nothing happens. Do you have any ideas how to fix this?

Does the log of recovery contain any errors while installing? Check the md5 of downloaded file. If you're s-off be sure to disable smartflash. Try to re-flash the recovery too.

Thank you for your answer!
When I first tried to install a new ROM (CM11 ....) I got an error, which was caused by 4EXT (--> it was still on 1.0.0.5, see error is described here). When I now try to install a new ROM (such as a CM11- or CM10.2-ROM - the files are not corrupted, I tried multiple ones), I do not get an error during the installation process - the phone simply does not go beyond the HTC logo.
Shall I flash 4EXT 1.0.0.6_RC1 again or do you prefer another recovery?

Wipe all partitions except sdcard and mount system, data and boot on mount options. Install again and see if this helps. If not I would suggest flashing a ruu and see if stock rom starts. If you want to change a recovery you will be able to flash only roms until 4.3jb. Try it and if it succesfully boot install the 4ext application and get the recovery from there.
