[Q] evo broken?? please help

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.

You did backup right ?

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)

He most likely has the rom in the root kit. I flashed virus sence 3.0 on my wifes evo this mourning. Nice stuff.

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.

XE keeps rebooting after installing Clockworkmod

I really don't know what to do now anymore
I tried to install Clockworkmod 5.0.2.0 Pyramid on my Sensation XE
Now it keeps rebooting, I've tried to reinstall, that didn't help
I can't install earlier versions.
What to do now???

i suggest you to install 4ext recovery...it is the best one out there

Dude, seriously.. Did you read my question?
My phone doesn't even boot.
How the f*** am I supposed to install the apk?!

Does it power on at all? Can you detect it via fastboot?

Well I have rooted my previous Sensation succesfully so I thought, this can't be that hard.
Using this guide
My Sensation XE is S-OFF now.
HBoot version 1.27.1100
(PICTURE)
It went wrong at step 2: install recovery
After it went wrong I have installed a lot of other different versions and eventually I have 4ext recovery on it.
And it's also possible to get into that recovery (PICTURE)
I was also able to root my phone, but it still doesn't boot
My computer does make a sound like he detects my HTC, but I'm not able to detect it using ADB (adb devices)

After you did firmware upgrade you need to flash ICS ROM, 1.27 h boot will bootloop with GB ROMS. Download an ICS ROM to your pc, check MD5, then power off phone and remove battery and sd card, insert your sd card in card reader on your pc, now delete the PM58IMG file from your sd card and place the ROM on your sd card, also download superwipe script from Mike's thread and place that on your card as well. Next safely remove sd card from pc and put it back in your phone, replace battery, boot into recovery, flash superwipe, then flash the ROM, reboot phone and you should be good.

it's not my fault if you are a noob and you don't even know that recoveries can be flashed via fastboot! it is the only way to get it working in your case! and if you have flashed an ICS fw you have to install the right rom and not the rom that you want! it is written everywhere! so calm down and read!

whut. i installed virtuous and my phone works
omg.. thank you so much!!

Phone not working!!!

I'm not sure if this is the right section or not, sorry if it's not, but my phone is really screwed up. I have the htc one S on T mobile that is running the viper one s rom on cwm 10 and will just go to a black screen after displaying the htc screen. I don't have any nandroid backups or copies of working roms either, so I can't boot from those. I did not have USB debugging checked before my phone became corrupt, so I'm pretty sure that ABD will not work, and whenever I try and plug my phone into the computer and access the flash boot menu, it will say that the USB is corrupt and it will not work. The cause of this is because I was messing with the build.prop, I accidentally deleted it, although I have a backup, there is no way if installing it in my phone's current state. It's getting to the point where I honestly don't care if I lose al of my stuff just as long as my phone will work again. Any knowledge shared on this subject would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

So... that's miserable. You may put a ROM in your phone SD card and install it using ClockworkMod Recovery.

Recovery and fastboot and that's about it.

Get a micro sdcard or if you have one already, get a micro sdcard reader, open case from back of your phone and take out the microsdcard.
Put it in the card reader. Copy the rom/image... put the card back in... boot in recovery... use the rom from sdcard to flash that rom.
Have fun..

1. Go to this forum to ask for more help.

2. Visit HTC's official websites to find some solutions.
3. Search for other tutorials about flashing recovery via fastboot.

AW: Sdcard can't be read
got the same problem once. the only thing you have to do is flashing a stock recovery, then a custom one again. it should work i think
edit: ups, when i had this issue i wasnt even able to start my phone, i dont know if it helps anyway

Thanks guys....to bad my work shift is to long 12hrs... I have to wait till I get home tonight and give this a try. Btw, my boots and all but no sd card access at all. It happened after I flashed a different kernel, but it was giving me reboots so I went back to stock, then I flashed a different kernel again many reboots...went back to the default kernel that came with my rom again, try to access my pictures, then files and I could not. I guess it was time for this to happen after so many things that I have flash... Thanks again guys.

If you formatted all partitions, then you need to install a ROM.
