Have you updated to the latest firmware? Whenever there's a new base, I just flash the accompanying firmware before superwiping and flashing Rom. Never had a problem booting up.

Which rom did you have before? You need the 3.32 firmware from Mike's thread. Place the PG58IMG on sd card and flash from bootloader. Delete it before superwiping and flashing 6.5

Means you haven't supercid your phone. Follow instructions on the thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767 Gotta go. Good luck.
so my sister has the same phone, i was thinking if i put my sd card in hers and make a back up and then putting my sd card back on my phone will i be able to boot normally?
Dude I wouldn't mess with a sister's phone if she doesn't know how to fix tech problems. You're probably gonna end up with an angry sister at some point. I don't have sister's but I don't touch my wife's phone unless I am 20000% sure I won't F' it up.

Listen to me on what I am gonna say: These people are trying to help you by pointing you to step by step instructions, mmkay? Follow them to the letter so you won't get 'done'. You WILL know how to fix it and you WILL fix it yourself. Being 15 isn't a damn valid excuse okay? I know of a guy around here (which who I will not name, and no, that's not me ) who maintains 2 successful ROMs and he is as old as you so if he can do something that requires much more than the basic knowledge.
Now, you go and fix your phone

Sorry for this admins if this is in the wrong spot, but i have no forum rights other than here.
I have extensively researched your forum, plus Cyanmod and have done everything i can think of to get my GPS to work on my HTC INSPIRE, but to no avail. Dammm thing still says SEARCHING for GPS.
Not sure if i have to leave it for a while i did it for like 10 minutes yesterday and nothing...... I have read that 7.0.2 fixes this but i guess its not true since i still have the problem.
Can someone please help me with this?
Maybe to avoid duplication of a thread on this same topic, you can just PM me here
I am well familiar with forums etiquette (being a moderator myself) and i know how annoying it is to have duplicate threads created for no reason.
Again my apologies if this is the case
Thanks.

Since you have CM7 which I believe is a gingerbread ROM, its usually suggested to flash a gingerbread radio. From what you mentioned, you have a stock at&t radio with a gingerbread ROM.
ok, when i rooted my phone, i used this (i can't post the link, but you if google exactly what i am about to put below, its the first choice):

If you go into settings>about phone>software information.. and look under Baseband version, thats what shows you what radio you have.
You mentioned you have RADIO-26.06.04.06_M which is a stock at&t radio.
Download the gingerbread radio and flash it using those instructions.
It should bring back GPS.
Ok, i have the file in both .zip and in .img format....
I am having issues flashing this to my phone....
I tried doing it via bootloader and doing
adb fastboot flash radio.img
it says something * not recognized *
its like it won't read it or something....
I tried doing recovery and using the "ZIP" file thinking i can just trick it but it said updating failed
Any easier way of getting this in my phone?
Isn't there a way of just going to the FILE i have and replacing with this one?
Just a thought.

Make sure you rename the file PD98IMG.zip
Make sure you place the PD98IMG.zip file in the root of your external SD card
Make sure there are no other PD98IMG.zip files in the root of your SD card
ok, again THANKS SO MUCH for all your help man....
I figured out how to flash the radio (didn't know i had to go into Hboot and let it do it by itself )
Got now a new version than previous after checking....
so i am now checking the GPS on it....
Do you have a good app you can suggest that will test it for me better...showing me if it is actually looking for the satelites, ect... ?
how long should it take for the GPS to catch at first?

If you have the downgrade radios in the 2 kits that are needed to get root, if it were me I would flash a more up to date radio. There is a radio / RIL thread in the dev section that can help you choose which radio with instructions how to flash radios / rils respectively.
Go to this thread which is right above yours. Click on the link that I posted for that person. That will take you to the radio thread where you can learn how to flash radios and rils. You will also find the correct files there.

Read the instructions carefully. You have to "flash" files named PD98IMG.zip from Hboot / Bootloader. It is done this way so that one does not have to obtain ENG-S-Off to flash a radio...like those crazy ferriners across the pond like to do...
IMGIt says "No image or wrong image"
than it says checking PD98IMG but nothing else happens

i rooted my device not too long ago with revolutionary.. Everything was successful..
When i got the phone i had the hboot 1.1800
well i went to try a rom.. ICS..
Told me i had to get the latest firmware, well i places the file on my sd card and went into hboot..
it was doing the update but said incorrect CID and now when i reboot, i get the boot loop on the htc screen..
i have a sd card reader, so i can put it in my computer.. so i tried to put back the original img.zip back because i did the win recovery..
so when my device reads that, it says incorrect model..
Help please!
oh my hboot says 1.27 now... how do i get back to my original 1.18?? i have to unroot it now but dunno how

I av tried battery pulls, hboot and tried recovery, factory reset, cache wipe...just about everything that's listed in the boot menu and recovery menus. also when i try to recover it goes to a screen with a green circular arrow which changes to one with a phone icon with a red triangle on it. I'm realld frustrated. don't know what to do now. any assistance would be appreciated.

Not sure if it was rooted before. I did the upgrade usiong an official RUU I obtained from HTC's site that was released this year for the inspire.

maybe a bad download. Re download it and run the exe file again from fastboot.

Can you tell me how you fixed your phone, my boyfriends phone is doing the same thing. We have taken the sims card, sd card and battery out. When we put the battery back in it still doesn't do anything. Please help!

What was he trying to do?....Has he tried to flash or root or anything different from the update?
My wife's phone, it's currently running CleanROM JL beta 1, android 4.1. it's been running this for over a year. time to upgrade it. i haven't kept up with development on this phone and now i'm totally lost.
bootloader says:
tampered
unlocked
Evita PVT SHIP S_ON RL
hboot 1.14.0002
radio: 0. 19as. 32.09. 11_2
eMMC-boot
...etc.
recovery is TWRP v2.4.1.0
i have no idea where to go from here. can i just drop a new rom on the sd card and flash it from recovery? don't have any software, adb etc and my only computers are macs. would love some advice or at least get pointed in the right direction. tried searching, but i'm just overwhelmed.
i would love to get as close to vanilla android as possible. thanks in advance for the help!
You can't do anything without first updating your firmware. For that you're gonna need access to a PC with an adb/fastboot environment on it. You need to get s-off, then update your firmware, then flash the latest TWRP recovery, then you will be able to update the ROM.

The first bottle is open
chugging..........
nasty, need a chaser
nasty, need a chaser
this skunk has some real funk, force (FORCE!!!!) reboot your device and try again!
tried 4 times and got the same result. any ideas? am i missing something?
Forget Firewater, try Rumrunner instead:

Can't you get access to a Windows PC? Pretty much everything you need to do with Android is Windows.

thanks very much for the help, though.
It's not hard do. Tim can help. Just LISTEN to him. He knows his stuff.. This device is his specialty

It's pretty straight forward, just sort out drivers, get s-off, flash firmware, and you're golden.

Not for long. Looks like my emmc is starting to fail in my Evita, luckily I've just bought a OnePlus One, it's gonna take a couple of weeks to arrive though. I'll still support this device though probably.

when you say "flash firmware" is that an ruu? it's been awhile and i'm not sure on the terminology anymore. i've flashed samsungs, htc's motorolas and nexus devices and they all have different approaches. i can't keep them straight

No, not an RUU, go to my How-To guide in my signature for details.

I'll quickly explain the flashing firmware. Firmware is basically the stuff like boot loader and radio. You need the entire firmware package updated.
So to do that, we have to get your phone into that mode that's like when you're taking a RUU. It's the black screen with a green progress bar. From there, we use an unusual command to install the firmware.
Just read the "How to Update Firmware" in my Sig and apply that method to any firmware package, as long as you're s-off and supercid
