Sent from my HTC Explorer A310e using xda premium

did you do a clean install? it also happened to me when i was using my old micro sd. try changing microsd and use authentic one's. there are people who say's they install it on a branded micro sd but failed to boot. maybe they are using fake sd card. no offense meant, but try to buy sd card on authorized dealers.

Assuming you performed a clean flash including system and cache wipe, correct? I've had super stable roms (specifically mmuzzy) flash wrong for me. I've just had to go back, wipe everything again, and reflash. Can't explain why it happens but sometimes it does. Knowing that you probably haven't set a ton of stuff up yet I'd just re-wipe and re-flash.
Hope that helps.

super wipe script or manual super wipe. For me that super wipe script doesn't seem to work. I just do it manually. cache, dalvic, and factory reset.
I should also state my phone is a galaxy nexus, so it might be different for you. Best of luck.

[Q] Super Wipe

I want install another ROM like HyperSensation-CM7.1-v0.6 , am i need a superwipe before installing it?
I'm just confused because i always wipe it manually with cwm, what's the different? somebody said using superwipe can make phone bricked
and can you tell me from who the best superwipe script i can get ?
Useing super wipe will knot Bricke your phone however you should backup your ROM before you do a wipe after backing up your ROM do a wipe useing clockwork mod and wipe you're delvek and wipe battery stats and then super wipe when super wipe is finished go to the down load folder in clockwork mod that is and install the ROM you have down loaded and your set

Superwipe is only necessary when flashing roms with different builds. Buy not necessary if flashing an upgrade over an existing ROM. I.e. (1.1-1.2) or what have you
You can grab a great superwipe from the revolution link in my signature. But as always suggested... nand back up before flashing ANYTHING.
Good luck boss
what makes superwipe necessary when flashing between different builds?

i will try with superwipe from ARHD lol
I've tested several different roms and used superwipe between them. Never had a problem

Basically the build is the base of the ROM. When you flash an update the base is the same so removing it to add the same one back isn't necessary.
However
flashing a ROM with a different build is using a different base to build the structure. Which requires a superwipe to get rid of the residual bits and pieces of the old ROM.
Think of it as you using a one glass to drink milk, chocolate milk and orange.juice out of...
You would start with milk, drink it. Would you then pour orange juice without rinsing your cup out? No but you would pour chocolate milk without rinsing first.
Then you would rinse and pour orange juice.
Same concept.
Rinse=superwipe
Sounds like snake oil to me. I've never done a superwipe and never needed to. If I'm switching ROMs or flashing an update that requires a full wipe I do the normal set of wipes in recovery plus I format the system partition. Always worked fine for me.

And that's all you every need to do. Superwipe is just a one click solution. If you format system (not factory reset) you just did the same thing more or less. Some scripts mess with other partitions but that, under most circumstances, is totally unnecessary.
Also, its been my observation that the flash scripts of the good roms will format the system if the release was not intended as an incremental update.

So: SuperWipe is a one click solution for Wiping
So in other words if you do a manual wipe, like the old style wiping, its the same thing, just a little more techy.
Great! *stick to old style*

No boot... Phone crash..

Okay, my HTC Sensation does not boot at all. Even when i run the stock Firmware... It has S-OFF Revolutionary... The only ROM that works is the ViperS and that also comes along with the issue that says com.android.phone has stopped working, along with that the wifi does not work... I've tried EVERYTHING! Can anyone help me please?!
Make sure you have the correct firmware 3.32 or 3.33. Also download 4ext recovery.It's a great recovery and really easy to use.you're soff so you should after doing those things be able to place Rom at root of sd card, do wipe data factory reset, wipe cash, wipe dalvik then install from sd card and reboot. Make sure to have your nandroid backup to be safe. You shouldn't have a issue after doing these things.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
I've flashed both 3.23 and 3.33 and still no progress and also i already have that recovery..... And i never did a nandroid backup so i'm stuck!
OK try to wipe everything aside from your sdcard from recovery. Then Install the rom twice, then reboot. Also have you used the superwipe script? Some roms, mostly aosp/aokp roms are not compatible with it. Let us know

I flashed superwipe then flashed ROM then did "reboot now"
Its been 20 mins still stuck at HTC boot screen.
Please tell me what to do
take out the battery reinsert it and just turn it on, don't go to recovery, if again stuck on boot screen, try flashing again both things, but AFTER superwipe, wipe sd ext manually, AFTER flashing the rom, do factory reset. If this doesn't help choose another rom. Also same thing may appear if your sd isn't partitioned corectly, how did you did it?

i havent partitioned my sd card. Its fat 32
I am also a noob
jaydenmonckton- No it won't wipe the rom, it maybe will just rearange some files, about superwipe, it sometimes gives error about sd-ext which users almost never see, my advice was to do it anyway cos it won't do any harm.
praveenbusy- Exactly from that you have errors, every rom which has preconfigured some kind of script requires sd-ext partition, which is almost every 2.3.5 except stock ones. I say almost, because jaggy's 2.7 and earlyer builds, a2sd gives some errors and after that rom is usable, I think Ateeq's also was working but I'm not sure about it . Definetely it's better to repartition your sd with ext partition.
I once tried to make a clean backup of my stock rom....so i wipe data / factory reseted and then backuped !! But i coundnt restore that nandroid, always get in a bootloop !

whenever i try to do partition with Minitool its gives me Error code :16
dont know whats the problem
My is a 4gb card i use a memorycard reader .I tried doing ext4 partition of 1 gb with no luck.
Do it from recovery, you just have to keep in mind that your WHOLE sd will be erased, so if you have something important on it, move it.
jaydenmonckton- did you turn on the phone after factory reset, because if you didn't it's normal to give you bootloop now, I don't have any ideas why it's doing this, it shouldn't, if you say exactly(step by step, everithing) how did you make the backup..... then it's possible to figure out what's wrong, if you are interested thou.

HELP. Can't Mount SDcard

I was flashing over clean rom from my old paranoid android and I was stupid and formated my sd card from the fastboot screen on the phone. I read on XDA that the thing to do is mount, format on computer, place rom on sdcard and install.
The rom is currently on my sd card after I formatted from computer. I am in TWRP and was under install and found the rom zip but it tells me "This operation may install incompatible software and render your device unuseable"
I stopped to ask before I make an expensive paperweight. How do I proceed?
I've never seen twrp say that... I wiped my SD card back in the day and can't remember anything like that. Are you on 1.14 Hboot? Maybe you need to adb boot.IMG first? As long as your sure its Evita ROM should be ok

This is normal. In the last 3 days I've flashed Roms back and forth and twrp WILL list this but only as a warning. It's perfectly fine. It's like a condition to cover everyone's butt except yours, since you (the owner) have taken the opportunity to change software on your phone.
If you've gotten to that screen that means you got the Rom on your sd card. Don't forget to wipe all data and a reset ALL inside of twrp. Flash away!

Reverse the order you typed in your last post. Some Roms give that option before its flashed. However, just do it yourself. Clear cache, dalvick cache, wipe system and then factory reset ALL INSIDE twrp. Don't factory reset outside of twrp.
THEN install Rom from twrp. Notice the warning you mentioned and simply follow the install directions.

Good lord this is terrifying. haha so I installed it and now its bootlooping. I wiped in that order and everything.

What are you wiping? Just cache? just dalvik cache? Make sure you have a spare rom on your pc and then wipe everything. Cache,Dalvik cache, sytem, factory reset,and sdcard. Guaranteed all your stuff will be gone. Including your rom. Youll have to mount your sdcard afterwards and copy a rom to the sd and flash it afterwards.

I'm at a loss sorry. If you didn't check the md5, that would be a good start, just to ensure it was a good download. Also, hopefully it was twrp 2.3.3.1 or earlier as higher versions have wiping issues.

What is the best way to wipe it? Fastboot?
What can't I delete, if I have to do it manually?
And how do I mount storage from recovery, can you give me a detailed process? I've never had a problem like this.

The tab that says mount... And it won't make a difference if u delete one thing at a time or format it. If you can't find mount in recovery stop screwing with the phone. You haven't read enough. I don't mind helping but.... Do try and help yourself before asking. These phones can be tricky, spend a few hours getting a grasp then I'll bet you could handle it on your own
