Hi, so I'm super green but itching to load custom kernel and rom... So my Evo is rooted and have seen some pretty sweet roms, lol, kinda scared to flash and not sure what roms go with what kernals, do I even need a new kernal? What I really want is a kernal I can overclock to 1198mhz, and a rom build based on honeycomb and or gingerbread that is 100% stable or as close as I can get... Help? Lol...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
hahah exited aren't you... welcome to the root world!

you asked for hc/gb. google hasnt released hc source code yet, probably not until ice cream, so there is none of that. you can however download cyanogen(mod) 7, which is almost totally stable.

http://mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=supersonic

there's the mirror link. download either rls4 or nightly 33. nightly 33 is a bit funky bcuz cyanogen is pulling an april fools prank saying he sold cm to teh duck revolution, and the rom is now called 'teh duck uber distro'. so maybe rls4 or just wait for the next nightly.

everything works. 4g (with one bug that there is an annoying fix for), hdmi (download hdmwin from the market) gps (with a fix) and everything else is perfect. it is still in beta/nightly stages, but should be done soon. it is my daily driver, as well as many other peoples. this rom is crazzzy popular. try it for sure.

start with stock kernel, but i'd try both savaged-zen and tiamat kernels on it. they will both give you much better battery. tiamat tends to give slightly better performance/quickness but savaged-zen (on custom SAVAGEZEN governer) gives fantastic battery. try them both!!!

again, welcome to the community. hope this helps.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jr71x:
Where do I get the kernals? And what process do I use? I have clockwork premium... I just don't wanna miss a step a jack myself:o

Also, is it gonna wipe my phone, do I need to wipe it? No issues with that though as I do it all the time... And thank you so much for the feedback BTW, still a little confused...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
ok, first of all, clockworkmod isn't the recovery you want to be using. download amon-ra's recovery here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=705026 make sure you get the pc36img.zip. put the pc36img.zip on the root of your sdcard (that means not in any folders) MAKING SURE IT IS NAMED EXACTLY PC36IMG.ZIP. aka just dont rename it. then power off your phone, and once it is off, hold power and volume down. you will see a white screen with scateboarding droids at the bottom. this is your BOOTLOADER SCREEN also known as hboot, and you see it quite often. so hboot will scan your sdcard, and find the pc36img.zip. hit volume up to accept the 'update'. then once it is done, volume up again to reboot.

you can download kernels from the evo android development subforum right here at the xda.

so first flash your rom. you can either boot up into it, or just flash the kernel right away. flash the kernel just like you would a rom, but without wiping.

enjoy.

any other questions, ask away.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tke0834:
100% agree. Amon Ra imo is the much more stable & user friendly recovery
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jr71x:
Alright, so, can I do all this just from my phone? Is a pc recommended? Will my stock kernal overclock? Never flashed a rom before, I'm an electronic/computer tech so I pick up shniz pretty quick but still don't wanna b---- this sucker...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
you can do it all from your phone if you want. i perfer downloading on my pc and transferring from there in case i want to modify anything, but you can always just dload on phone. make sure the pc36img.zip isnt in download folder or anything if you do. it needs to be on the root. your stock kernel can't overclock sadly. if you have never flashed a rom before, then cm7 will be crazy different than stock rom. most custom rom's are based off the stock htc software, just modded. cm7 is aosp, which means it is stock GOOGLE software. htc spends quite a few months modifying htc sense into google software, so the speed and memory increase is very noticable. just wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache when switching roms. you might want to backup your apps and their data using titanium backup. just dont backup system data, that can cause problems. then flash the rom after wiping, flash any kernel or addons you want (dont forget to flash gapps if it is an aosp rom, bcuz if you dont u wont have the market or anything) and reboot. for any other mods you install after that on the same rom, just wipe cache and dalvik cache and then flash away. wiping data between roms is always reccomended. if you want to stick with the cm7 nightlys, then all you need to wipe is cache and dalvik. there is never much of a problem with just flashing one over the other without a data wipe.

and forgot to mention, you cant control amon-ra recovery with rom manager. but then again, rom manager is just a touch screen version of recovery. you get used to the volume/power keys pretty quickly.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tke0834:
Did you do a factory wipe, Clear the cache & wipe Dalvik?

Sounds like it just wasn't a good install. Do the above in recovery & reinstall your ROM
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
ya did you wipe? doesnt sound like it. make sure data, cache, and dalvik cache are all wiped successfully. also make sure you are using amon-ra recovery. cwm can sometimes give you problems.

[Intercept General] HeliumX10:
Hi,

I am new here, but advanced linux user :)

I have already done this succesfully on my X10i - thanks 1st working howto on linux OS :)

Theres propably mistake with these steps:

./adblinux shell chmod +x /data/local/tmp/psneuter

./adblinux shell chmod +x /data/local/tmp/su-v3

In my case these commands left errors. They have to simply mark these binaries as executable. But chmod +x * doesnt work (dont ask why :D) - so I marked them as executables (su,psneuter,busybox) in desktop linux os before transfer and it worked.

The next mistake is in the line:

busybox cp -vaf /data/local/tmp/su-v3 /system/xbin/su

Because busybox is not yet in the system path - so you have to type:

# /data/local/tmp/busybox cp -vaf /data/local/tmp/su-v3 /system/xbin/su

Until

# /data/local/busybox cp -f /data/local/tmp/busybox /system/xbin

You can use busybox directly.
[Intercept General] Semperverus:
chmod +x doesn't work on android, you have to use chmod 777 or 666 or the like to get it to work properly.
[Intercept General] HeliumX10:
Or do it on linux GUI and mark as executable before transfer to Android device :)

I actually used the clockworkmod_microsd option to install to my card - how would i access the internal memory to install from there? maybe that's the problem?
[G Tablet General] K J Rad:
So you extracted the zip file to the root of your external MicroSD (SDCARD2) and restarted while holding down the volume up key... and what happened?
[G Tablet General] Jefiner:
In my case, after doing the initial install when I try to boot in recovery, the viewsonic screen comes up (with no recovery text) and then goes to black. When I eventually try to power up again, the tab goes back to the original ROM.

[G Tablet General] Rumbleweed:
Look carefully. The screen should be black except for very small text in the upper left corner of the screen. If intensity is down, you might not see it.

[Dell Streak 7] illdill:
You will need the p11 for a successful restore. p14 may not be required as some have had success without it. Keep trying for the p11 file. It may be an issue with the online storage site I chose, or if you could use a download manager, that may help.
[Dell Streak 7] illdill:
Give it a try without p14 and let me know what you get?

Yes, nvflash mode should only give you the back, menu and home lights. Screen will remain black.

Can you get into fastboot or recovery?

Thank you very much for putting it together AndroidOVERAL. I will give it a go tonight. Link to NVidia drivers is not valid, but I was able to find it elsewhere.

Guys I was having a similar issue so what I decided to do was delete the files that I had downloaded and start from scratch from fresh downloads and unzip those again. I was also had my Streak connected through a USB hub at first. SO after the fresh downloaded files were unzipped and I connected directly to my laptop (oops, let me mention that I uninstalled the driver and deleted the software so that when I connected it again it would ask for the driver), this time it all went off without a hitch. And I was just doing it to refresh myself on how to get back to stock 2.2.2 if I ever needed to.

Had a similar situation with StreakDroid 7 v3.2 (HoneyStreak) did not want to flash correctly either, so I started with a fresh download and connected directly to laptop and the flash went perfect
