[Q] Evita Can't Boot ROMs

I have been working on my girlfriend's AT&T Evita for about 10 hours now and keep hitting a wall when I try to flash AOKP Milestone 1 or Cyanogenmod 10.
Here's my process:
Unlock Bootloader
Flash TWRP 2.5.0.0
TWRP Factory Reset
Flash AOKP
Flash GAPPs
Clear Cache
Power Off
Fastboot
Flash boot.img from the AOKP ZIP
Reboot
When I run through this process I get the X logo, but the animation just runs and runs, never goes anywhere. Basically the same result when I go through the same process with CM10, but with CM logo stuck just spinning. Only option when that happens is to relock the bootloader and RUU the phone.
S-ON
HBOOT 1.14.0002
RADIO 0.19as32.09.11_2
OpenDSP-v29.1.0.45.0622
RUU version 2.20.502.7 (not sure, will have to check when I get back home in an hour or so.)
Stock Android 4.0.4
Is there any additional information needed? Anyone have any ideas?

Download 2.3.3.1 Check md5
fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
select recovery
wipe cache, dalvik, system, factory reset
flash your rom
reboot to bootloader
fastboot flash boot boot.img (whereby boot.img is extracted from the rom you're flashing)
reboot
twrp 2.4+ has issues wiping.
If that doesn't work, some phones have issues booting newer cm roms unless they are on 2.14 hboot. To fix that you would have to s-off and then ruu up to 3.18 then flash recovery.

What method did you use to s-off? I tried FacePalm but never got it to go through.

I believe facepalm is the only known method for this device. Read through the thread, lots of info about how to get the exploit to work

Ok, followed your instructions exactly, still getting the "This Build is for development only" message, but I'm IN!
Thanks for the help exad.
Edit: FacePalm S-OFF successful on first attempt when run from AOKP.

The red text is because bootloader is unlocked if you s-off you can remove it.

Tried rooting and installing custom rom now won't boot

The only thing that's happening is I'm getting the htc screen with the development warning
Nothing else
I've tried turning off when I do it restarts
Please help
thanks

Now I've gotten the phone to go into the bootloader screen
but i don't know what to do from there.
I'm not sure if i attempt reflashing the rom using fastboot?
What do you guys suggest?
Even if I can put on a different ROM would be great as well but that I'm not sure of doing either as I can't restart the phone (if i do go back into the HTC dev boot screen)
let me know please thanks

Ok the phone was running stock Rom so firstly i was trying to get a custom recovery installed no luck. It wouldn't take it so i tried a file named insecurebootandroot
After flashing this via bootloader and HTC ONE X All in one tools I'm just getting the the HTC screen with the red text below
But I was able to get back into bootloader by holding down vol- then power then releaseing power button and it goes back to the fastboot screen
the phone is saying

Alright not sure what that bootandroot file is, but I don't know if that's for this phone even. Anyways, you're already rooted so what have you tried? Did you try asking another rom or wiping data from recovery (NOT BOOTLOADER).

The phone wasn't rooted I was trying to root it.
I don't mind putting on another rom but no luck I've tried clearing cache and I still get this same screen and I guess the only way to wipe data is from fastboot but then after doing this what would happen?

No, your phone is rooted. It has an unlocked bootloader. The problem with fastboot erase cache is it formats cache the wrong way. Just go into your custom recovery and format cache and you should be good.

Did you try both TWRP and CWM?
Sent from my evita

did you flash the kernel separate since you're still s-on?

Download a ROM onto your pc. Download TWRP 2.6 recovery from here. Put it in your fastboot folder. Use the following fastboot commands:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-evita.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Go into recovery on phone, mount usb storage, copy a ROM from PC onto phone. Flash ROM from install menu. Reboot to bootloader. Extract boot.img from copy of ROM still on pc and put it in your fastboot folder, flash it using this command:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
Enjoy.
PS. Don't post your problems twice in different locations please.
PPS. Do some research so you actually know what you're doing before you attempt to do anything else to your phone. Don't get any information from anywhere except this forum on XDA, other sites do not distinguish very well between our phone and the Endeavoru.

I relocked the bootloader should i unlock it again or relock it?
and doing it from fastboot how do I unlock it?

Why did you relock the bootloader? That's the opposite of what you want to do. Stop trying random things. You need to unlock it again now, and follow the instructions I posted above.

[Q] help me HTC one s , reload 4.1.1

i tried to install maxsimus 10 sense 5, but i missed get s off and my mobile does not open,, i do unlocked and hboot 2.15.0000 and radio 1.15.50.05.29. and i only öpen bootloader... please help me thanks...

Ok, here we go. Good to see you're still on 2.15 bootloader and 1.15 radio. So nothing bad has happened.
Guess your phone doesn't boot behind the htc screen, so all your files on internal memory are deleted?
---------- Post added at 11:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 PM ----------
You'll find an appropriate backup here.
Simply download the following files:
openrecovery-twrp-2.3.3.0-ville.img
blabla_htc_stock_3.16.401.8.zip
Boot into fastboot mode, fastboot flash twrp 2.3.3.0 by typing 'fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.3.3.0-ville.img' from your android working directory (usually the directory where fastboot.exe and adb.exe are stored).
Mount your internal sd card from twrp 2.3.3.0 copy the unzipped files into the right directory and restore. Done.

I'm in the same boat. hboot 2.15 and radio 1.13 here. S-OFF and SuperCID.
Tried your steps above, and while I get a little further with the stock restore images you provide (Rosie even comes up!), process system stops responding, and the phone reboots in a couple of minutes.
Any suggestions?

You can start from the beginning install RUU.
Appropriate RUU can be downloaded from androidruu com, you should be locked before run.
To lock a phone:
power off
power on with volume down
from pc run "fastboot oem lock"

Yes.
Also I'm not shure about relocking. I usually restore stock recovery without relocking my phone before running any RUU. It even stays unlocked after the process (S-OFF!). But relocking isn't a big thing so, even it's for just being on the right side.
I forgot a main thing in my above answer: You must run factory reset from bootloader before restoring. Thats the point the backup hangs with rosie after restore. Factory reset with twrp isn't enough.

I ran factory reset and clear storage both before flashing TWRP and running the restore.
Process system isn't responding after awhile when starting up, and then it reboots a minute later
RUU restores don't work. They flash fine, but when booting, it hangs at white HTC screen with the "Preparing phone storage" message before rebooting. S-OFF usually bypasses relock requirement for RUUs.

Could you simply try HTC__001 as cid?
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
And flash boot.img from the backup from fastboot?
fastboot flash boot boot.img
That new partition layout seems to mess everything up...
Which recovery are you using? You should use TWRP 2.3.3.0 for restoring.

Sounds like a file or files in /system is messed up?
I'm guessing you can still access twrp/cwm recovery, if so could the following scripts help (deep cleanse your device)?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2121584
Then you could just flash a custom_rom .zip ?
I'd run the Superwipe first, then again a second time then a third just to be on the safe side, that or I have OCD!
Then run the Kernel script, once all done reboot back into recovery then install the custom_rom .zip. If you don't have a custom_rom.zip on your internal just mount usb and transfer it across.
Hope that helps.

Sounds like a mess described in this thread.
@muriani: Have you been on MaximusHD before?
Maybe you should reinstall MaximusHD then and follow the procedure over there to fall back to a previous state. I'll try that myself tonight (UTC+2) as I need a working phone for today.

MaximusHD doesn't work for me at all.
I've wiped /system numerous times, I'll go back and try the superwipe as well though.
I've never had such trouble getting a freaking android phone to boot.

Nothing I've loaded seems to work. I've reset CID, factory reset after the restore, and all I get is "preparing phone storage", reboot, and then black screen with statusbar that eventually reboots.
I've nearly given up hope.

Well, as a last resort, I set CID to T-MOB010 (stock for my phone), ran the latest RUU for T-mobile, and same result.
I've given it up for lost.
EDIT: HOLY F*CKBALLS.
So, I didn't give up after all. Found a couple of other threads, and apparently yes, you have to relock, reset CID, AND go S-ON (fastboot oem writesecureflag 3) and then run the RUU.
I have a stock fresh TMOUS 4.1.1 One S now.

Well, if there is nothing else left, I think I'd have tried the same, because there is nothing to loose. Btw, which s-off did you do before: Moonshine or Facepalm?
Can/will you s-off your device again?

I honestly don't remember which I used. I *think* it was Facepalm.
S-OFF will require SuperCID, which I really don't feel like going through again.
I tried just a basic update to the UnKnown JB 2.0 Sense rom and the thing didn't boot, so I think I may be stuck on stock+root for awhile.
Also, I'm noticing some pretty severe flakiness in the cell radio now. Full bars, I'd be trying to use data but there's just no traffic. Can't even play a 64kbps mp3 stream reliably with full bars 4G.

Hey i am using sense 5, rootroder helped me to rescue my mobile install 4.1.1 again, thank you very much...
And i use his advice doing super cid and s off and ite work... İ want to ask last thing, my htc is htc__102 from germany,, had i been needed to get supercid and s off with my mobile...

After flashing the ROM my phone shut off and would only turn on to the HTC Quietly Brilliant page at the beginning of the boot cycle, i made a backup but dont know how to find it. I somehow managed to wipe the entire phone and now i have no operating system. I had TWRP installed but cannot access it because i relocked the phone. Is there anyway to get this thing working again? any help would be much appreciated

Since you are s-on, you need to fastboot flash boot boot.IMG from the ROM you want to use. While you're at it you may as well just s-off your device. It will make things simpler in the end. You're going to have to unlock the boot loader again to flash the boot image though. You will also want to flash recovery again via fastboot.

It will answer many of the questions that you have and provides links to appropriate tools.
You should definitely s-off your device now. Just look for the question in the thread I linked for more detail. Bookmark it as well, or add it to your favorites, as it will provide a great reference point for future use.
Once you have s-off, you will just have to flash any ROM you want from recovery. It will make your life way easier.

You need to get a ROM booting brute trying s-off. Don't use Goo Manager to install ROMs, install manually through TWRP recovery. Once you've installed the ROM reboot to the bootloader and flash the boot.img. Here's how to flash the boot.img.
Extract the boot.img from the ROM zip and copy it into your fastboot folder on your pc. After you've flashed the ROM and/or gapps, reboot to bootloader and connect your phone, make sure it says fastboot on your phone screen. Then you can issue the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Now you can reboot your phone into the ROM.

This may go with out saying but when I'm in recovery and hit the reboot button and try to select "system" it comes up with a message telling me I have no OS installed and asks if I want to continue anyway..

Use the wipe menu in TWRP to do a full wipe (cache/dalvik/factory reset/system). Then use the install option to the install the ROM (and gapps if it's an aosp ROM). Then reboot to bootloader and flash the boot.img with fastboot. Then reboot your phone.

Mount your sdcard through TWRP. You should then be able to drag and drop the file from your computer to your sdcard. It should go without saying that your phone needs to be connected to your computer.

Use the wipe menu in TWRP to do a full wipe (cache/dalvik/factory reset/system). Then use the install option to the install the ROM (and gapps if it's an aosp ROM). Then reboot to bootloader and flash the boot.img with fastboot. Then reboot your phone.

What ROM did you flash with Goo Manager?
You mount the sd card by going into the mount menu, then using the mount usb storage option.

More information required, start with your bootloader details and recovery version. Also, you should probably read the Evita FAQ thread in my signature first because it'll most likely solve your problem.

here's what i did first. i plugged my phone in my laptop via usb then went and installed the drivers. after that i followed the instructions below to get hboot 2.14
OPTIONAL: Installing the Firmware (Warning: You MUST be S-OFF and Super CID to flash this! Flash at own risk!)
• Reboot to bootloader (adb reboot bootloader if "USB Debugging" is enabled in Android)
• Run: fastboot oem rebootRUU
• Run: fastboot flash zip <PathToFirmware.zip>
• If the output ends with "FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately)", run the previous command AGAIN
• If it ends with "INFO..... OK", reboot to the bootloader: fastboot reboot-bootloader
• Verify everything was successful by running: fastboot getvar all
It was successful (said ok) so i rebooted to bootloader fastboot reboot-bootloader then i rebooted my phone and it came as fas as the htc quietly brilliant screen then went blank and the usb thingy says that the drivers failed to install. i dont know what i did wrong. i read your FAQ but i didnt see what i was looking for (atleast i think i didnt see)

Do you mean you followed those instructions to update to the 2.15 firmware? You said 2.14 but i think you might be confused about that because no such instructions or firmware package exists for 2.14 firmware. Anyway, it didn't work because your firmware is not what it should be after following those directions. Go to my How-To Guide For Beginners thread and follow the instructions there if you still want to update your firmware.
Your original post said you got stuck after flashing CM, now you're saying you got stuck after attempting to flash firmware. Which is it? Also, you didn't answer which recovery version you have installed.

ok so i followed your instructions and got what u said i should get for the radio and when i did fastboot reboot it booted up to the htc quietly brilliant screen and then went blank

Please post your bootloader details and your exact recovery version number. Have you reflashed the ROM? Are you sure the install was successful? Did you check the md5?

Yes I did flash 2.15. Now I have a problem where once my phone is on mobile data I keep getting 'u unfortunately the process Com.android phone has stopped. And my phone service goes off. The only time I don't see this message is when the phone is in airplane mode and if it's in airplane mode I can't receive texts and calla.

Idk if cm 11 is compatible with firmware 2.15. Maybe that's why.....?

That firmware is compatible with all current aosp ROMs. @cuteyr, did you perform a full wipe before flashing?

@timmaaa i actually did a factory reset before flashing it.

That doesn't answer the question though, a full wipe includes cache, dalvik cache, data (factory reset), and system.

In that case no i didnt. Guess i have to redo @timmaaa?

You should always perform a full wipe when flashing a ROM, so yeah, I'd flash again and see if it helps.

TWRP's factory reset wipes all of those automatically, so it's best to use that one when flashing ROMs. The only times I get force closes are occasionally when restoring certain phone/messaging settings from different ROMs, and there is always the possibility of a bad download. If you get force closes after a clean flash then I'd suggest downloading a different ROM or version/nightly.

The factory reset option in TWRP doesn't wipe the system partition.

@timmaaa so I wiped my phone(cache, dalvik, factory reset) then flashed the firmware again then installed cm11 rom and after that was successful I turned my phone back on and I realized the message wasn't coming back on...that is until about two and a half hours later it ppopped up ' unfortunately the process Com.android.phone has stopped and it hasn't stopped once my phone is not on airplane mode. What to do? I'm in desperate need of help as my phone is my major way of doing all sorts of things
