did what all my friends told me to do, who have the evo apparently a bad mistake. used unrevoked to root my evo, worked perfect. stoked!! downloaded titanium backup, backed up everything, worked great. still happy. went to install a rom (i guess) it told me i needed to change my kernel and had a link to the market for a kernel downloader. downloaded the app looked through bout five different kernels, all had good reviews and stable... downloaded the one with the most downloads (6700 or something). asked download? i said yes. asked flask now? i said yes. it said flash complete reboot coming... rebooted got to the HTC EVO 4G white screen sat there for bout 15 seconds and shut off tried to reboot again same thing. bout ten times in a row so i pulled the battery. did a hard reset didnt fix, did a wipe, didnt fix....
anyone know what i can do please help.. thank you
You need to match the right kernel for the ROM your using, you can download and put it on your SD card boot into bootloader should be good to go. Worst case reflash ROM.

Go into bootloader (power off, then back on while holding volume down) Go into recovery, choose install from zip, then find the ROM on your SD card and flash.

I think he was asking if you made a Nandroid back ( a complete backup of you ROM) If not you need to place a ROM on your SD card and flash it via recovery (see my earlier post)

Find a ROM in the EVO section here at XDA ( Your in the EVO Shift forum) http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=653
Not sure what to tell you about getting your pc to recognize your SD card but that would make the process a lot easier

Dont hook it to the pc. When the phone is off (hold volume down then hold the power button) it will boot into bootloader, volume down to recovery, hit power to select.

i bought a new card holder i got the computer to recognize the sd card but now it will not let me drag the new rom into it... tried three different roms tried zipped form and dragging it wont let me tried unzipped form and dragging it.. wont let me.. what am i doing wrong????

i do not have the original rom becuase i didnt make a nandroid backup i was told i did not have to
and i tried dragging the zipped rom called "sinister rom" into sd card and it would not let me
EDIT: If anyone gets an error trying to use the Newkidd's One .ZIP Stock RUU file and then Flashes a ROM leaving you in a boot loop and you feel stuck, just download the modified Android Drivers from Unrevoked. This helps out a lot if your device can't be seen, then just use the PC version of the RUU and let it run well, and then you'll be good to go. Thanks A LOT to strapped365. He spent more the 8 hours with me on GTalk all together, and helped me revert EVERYTHING back and fixed everything. This was all his find, I just tested it out for him.
Clear data and dalvik or do a factory reset
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
97 Views and 1 Reply? Come on guys, this is pathetic. Alright. I tried the Factory Reset, I've wiped everything. The problem is that in Bootloader Mode, it shows S-ON, but I still have CWM3.2.0.1 Recovery and when try to Flash a ROM, it takes me to the Sprint Bootup Screen, get's to where it says "Sprint" or where it's building up the 4G design, and then it stops. I tried to Flash the Sprint OTA that I got from my sisters Shift onto my brothers phone, but it still won't boot. Is there anything I can do? I need help please?

If it was rooted before, what I would do is start over. Did you run the RUU from the PC, or the SD Card? I'm by no means an expert. But when I've had to RUU a phone, it always worked better connected to the PC IMO. But if for whatever reason you can't, place it in the root of the SD Card. Do it from there. I'd RUU back to Froyo. Then just act like the phone was never rooted before. After that just follow the guide for rooting. Also, like I said before I would RUU from the PC via HTC Sync. Just connect your phone to the PC by USB cable, and run the RUU exe. from the PC.
Here is a thread with the RUU http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=909554
Just kidding I never RUU'd. I'm going to use PG06IMG.zip and then I'll RUU... k?
Just download the RUU. Place on your desktop. Connect the phone with HTC Sync, and run the RUU exe. It will take the phone back to factory stock ( unrooted froyo ) . Then just reroot.
I don't have HTC Sync. And he doesn't wanna Root anyway. </3.
K. I'm just gonna RUU it lol.

Dude you're soo cool!
Did that work for you? Is it all good now?
Honestly, I don't have internet so I'm Tethering off my Epic to download it and I have a long while to go. Is there anyway I can use the PC06IMG.zip and just download an application to my PC to Flash it? It's not about the size, it's about the time. Because as long as I Tethering, I can't text or call or anything and that's a huge hassle.

The way I described is going to be the best way IMO. But it does take some time. Your going to need HTC Sync installed on your PC. Just go to a Fast Food place buy a soda, sit down and use their WiFi. Till you get what you need done .

Hey shoot me a PM with your Email. I'll get you a link to my DB.
i was hacking my inspire with Ace hack kit, and it somehow froze and wouldnt continue so i unplugged it and it seems like it got bricked or something idk ? like i turned it off took the battery out and back in and when it looks like its loading the screeen fades into a black screen .......... i tryed recovering, reseting and nothing. can any one please help me ? thanks
Grab a rooted STOCK ROM online and rename it to the PG98IMG.zip.
Reboot into bootloader and update the phone with that file.
You're phone should be back to normal. Happened to me once and that's what I had to do!
ps I attached the stock rooted gingerbread. Should do the trick bro
nooooooo. i really think my phone is F***ed up because when i turn it on it goes to a black screen, and doesnt load up
Can you get into hboot/bootloader? If so, you can recover it, following ladiesgod instructions. Youll just need to get the PG98 file onto your sd somehow....using a card reader plugged to pc or laptop or friends phone.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
i did what you told me, im in bootloader but how do i load the ROM and install it?
I couldn't attach the file but google for "Stock GingerBread Rooted PD98IMG.zp". Download it. Rename it to "PD98IMG.zip" then place it on the root of your SD card. Go into HBoot. Your phone will scan your sd card then ask if you want to update it. Say yes!
Voila!
would you mind giving me a link for it? all it does is send me to some post here on XDA thanks, n btw i randomly tryed with a Custom ROm, it didnt work is it because of that?
Make sure it is named properly. Very important. I Dont know what the inspire is, ice seen both PG98 and PD98 typed here. I dunno cuz i have an evo. But as long as the file is named properly, hboot will detect it
Good luck
Edit: and MUST be on root of sd card, not in any folder.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Yeah, i Dont believe a custom rom will work because of something in the meta-inf folder, or having to do with updater script/binary. Will need a rooted stock ROM, renamed exactly right.

Trust me it is. There is a link in the first post that says in pd98img format. Which is what you need at this point.
My suggestion is to reformat the SD card fat32. Full format not quick.
Download the pd98 I linked and place on SD card(not in a folder)
Boot into hboot and install it

I think I know what message you're talking about. What you have to do is format your SD card.
I've gotten the same message before about a 'bad' image. Formatting my sd card and puttin the ROM on a clean card worked. Good luck!
Hello XDA,
Im having a problem with recovery mode, my laptop and skyrocket read the sd card fine when in usb data storage mode. even when i check myfiles on the phone it says that the flashable zips that i have copied over are there. when i boot into recovery mode it gives me a list of dir's but when i go into the external sd dir nothing is there... Why is this? If anyone can help please!!! Thank you in advance. what I am trying to do is wipe my phone with The DarkSiDE SuperWipe and then flash the phone with ATT-ICS-Tmo-Port_2.zip. I have a Rogers Samsung Galaxy II Lte
Model# SGH-1727R. Rooted. Sim unlocked. Telus Sim in.
Are you picking install zip from sd/ choose zip from sd?
the only options i get are to apply update for sd, wipe factory reset and wipe cache. thank you for getting back. but it wont even recognize that anythings on the card to begin with.
apply update FROM SD that is.
Sounds like you have stock 3e recovery and not cwm.
ahh shoot! Ok i know what the problems is... my phone wont enter DL mode thaught i already had CWM in but i dont. Sigh! if its not one thing its another... been working on this since 5 yesterday... im starting to skip steps lol.

Excellent, enjoy!!!
I messed up bad. :crying: I have some idea what I'm doing but I just made a terrible mistake. I was running Viperxl with exernalx kernel and I wanted to try cyanogenmod 10.1. I had a back up of the factory version that was rooted and a back up of viperxl/externalx. I tried flashing the cyanogenmod rom and it was stuck in the loading screen. So I rebooted back into recovery then tried to flash the rooted factory backup I had. Same thing. It was stuck in the loading screen. Here's where I went wrong. I rebooted back into bootloader and tried factory reset without really knowing what it did. Now I have no back up. When I try to mount the sd card my computer says it has to format it first. And to format it, my computer has to clear it. And luckily I didn't just go for that. Any idea of what to do next? I'm stuck lol. Thanks for the help
Edit: Ok it's not really an sd card. All I can describe is it says drive G: and it has 10gb of internal storage(but it it has 16gb total it just says it will wipe about 10gb storage, can someone explain?) that I would have to all wipe out to format. I thought you would just call it an internal sd card but I don't think that's right. I just don't want to wipe anything important

You corrupted sd card doing factory reset from bootloader.. don't ever do that on this phone. After formatting on pc copy Rom to sd and flash. If your on hboot 1.14 or higher you need to flash boot.img from rom.zip you installed. Unless your s-off

Yeah I learned that the hard way lol. I usually check before doing stuff like that but... no excuse, I just went stupid. I thought it would be bad to format the disk since it wipes everything off? Is the important software on the other drive and not the 10gb sd card? Noob question but I just want to make sure before I make this irreversible
Edit: Ok I put more thought into this and I don't think you would call it an sd card. Just internal storage. But I see you have the same phone so I hope your advice is good. I just need to be reassured before doing anything else

I can't mount the sd card though since I factory reset it. Unless I format it on my computer and doing that will wipe everything off. And I'm not sure how that will turn out. So until then I'll keep searching around or hopefully get an answer. Person above said to format it but I'm just not sure yet and would hate to brick it.

Thanks for the quick reply! That's what I thought. I just scared myself away from doing anything else. I don't always f up but when I do, I f up real bad lol. Most profound way to learn imo. And not to jack my own thread but can you run elementalx 6.7 with cyanogenmod 10.1? Can't seem to find answer and I'm not familiar enough with this stuff yet(obviously)
No you absolutely cannot use elemental kernel with aosp based ROMs. It's only for use with sense ROMs. It probably says that in the OP of the kernel thread. You really need to do some reading.

Didn't see this till now. Is it that easy? I thought it took something more technical and risky than this. I read into this for two days straight before doing anything and everything went smooth. And I did back it up. Not sure what went wrong there when trying to flash it because it worked earlier. There's just a few things I'm not too familiar with like the factory reset. And for some reason I tried it assuming it just reset it back to how it came out of the factory. It's all a learning process
I guess you leaned the hard way huh, just remember never to factory reset in bootloader again, only in recovery. And do some more reading, your question about elemental kernel would have answered itself if you took the time to read properly.

Ok that makes sense. Idk why I didnt just check the kernel thread. I was just being lazy. Well.. you're definitely right. I got plenty of reading to do. I just always over analyze things and search stuff too specific which makes asking these questions on threads easier
There's nothing wrong with asking questions. But usually the same question has been asked and answered before, so be sure to search effectively first, it's part of xda rules.
Sent from my Evita
Yeah I understand that lol. I thought about that before asking. I was mostly just wondering if it was ok to wipe the memory to format it. And I explained everything just to check and make sure there was nothing else that could be done. Which I probably could've found the answers myself but it's a bit overwhelming making these mistakes without knowing what to do. Just want to cry out for help. Things always look so much easier retrospectively lol. And they usually are too
All in all I think you did the right thing, you have the right information we need to tackle the problem. You'll find xda to be a great place, it's full of like minded people that are willing to lend a hand when the **** hits the fan.
