Thanks phwelo. Now if i can get it to flash.

When i try flash it i get "-bash: fastboot: command not found"
[HTC EVO 3D] spiicytuna:
Do you have fastboot for osx?

http://developer.htc.com/adp.html
[HTC EVO 3D] Max_Pain:
perhaps a silly question, but since I don't have my Evo 3D yet I wouldn't know...is it possible to create a splash screen (which i'm big on making my own, plenty made for the OG Evo) that makes use of the 3D screen?
[HTC EVO 3D] spiicytuna:
No b/c 3D is only available after booting.... so a 3D splash, while a COOL idea, would not really be feasible.
[HTC EVO 3D] kingcliff00:
just use ffmpeg on your mac to convert your images then use terminal i use my mac to change my splashscreen
[HTC EVO 3D] riggsandroid:
great thread

Some contributions

1. The zip file attached contains a script (flashursplash3D.bat) that will run through all the steps outlined in the OP. I had this for the EVO Shift and just modified the information for the 3D.

Instructions:

1. Unzip the files into one directory

2. place your .BMP (540x960) into the folder named as splash1.bmp

3. Run the .bat file

You have the option within the .bat to flash via fastboot, or use the .zip created and flash via bootloader. The .bat will push the file to your phone, etc.

Also here is my first splash for the 3D - zip file is attached please rename to PG86IMG.zip and reboot into bootloader and choose Yes to update. For those who are crazy about md5 - for the PG86IMG-shooter-barrel.zip - md5 is - 576c6f0b4b37dc116c3b611242368461
[HTC EVO 3D] TrofeoSC:
I am really slow, but after working at it for about 5 minutes, I figured out how to work the program!

Thank you very much for your efforts!!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] CyanCrayon:
So, does this change the image you see after the boot animation, or the white HTC picture you see when loading the Sense Launcher?
[HTC EVO 3D] -shift-:
this changes the htc screen before the boot animation.
[HTC EVO 3D] CyanCrayon:
Oh okay, thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] Shaquiel Harris:
Lol this is based off my guide and i got no thanks? :p
[HTC EVO 3D] TrofeoSC:
Well, then,

Thank you very much!
[HTC EVO 3D] riggsandroid:
Umm.....I never saw your thread, and my info is the same as your info, I know I got it from some other threads on xda, could have been yours...

Thanks to whoever originally provided the info. Whoever that person is.

EDIT: just read my post and I'm not trying to sound like a douche. LOL
[HTC EVO 3D] Shaquiel Harris:
Your Definitely sounding douchish. :p
[HTC EVO 3D] Shaquiel Harris:
Your Definitely sounding douchish. :p

It's good though. I just thought you took it and just changed some stuff around and didnt give any thanks. someone took my entire general faq guide for the sensation and put it on a DIFFERENT website and said they made it.

[HTC EVO 3D] ceejay3k:
I want to utilize this like I did on the Evo 4G but I would like to know if anyone can rip the original splash screen in case I need to go back to stock? I don't know the command to rip the image. Lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] myndwire:
Shift you rule. Here's a PG86IMG.zip
[HTC EVO 3D] myndwire:
Totally agree -- Would love to hold on to the stock splash1 just in case.
[HTC EVO 3D] eurominican:
He does indeed. And you, sir, do too for taking the time to package it into a PG86IMG.zip for the rest of the world

Thanks shift_

For a rom I'm working on...criticism is welcomed. Thanks

@spiicytuna, you wrote a script long ago to enable bootsound. It only works with init.local.rc, which shooter stock doesn't have. Is there a way?

[HTC EVO 3D] Product F(RED):
A lot of people, after running Revolutionary, have been getting the "Error 16, Switch ____ " automated message when calling any number but Sprint Customer Support. This is a 100% definite fix for the problem. The good news is that it's an easy fix. The bad news is that the fix has to be done on Sprint's side:

--------------

A) Listen to the Error message, and at the end of the message you should be transferred to a special department that specifically deals with and fixes this error message. They'll work their magic in less than 5 minutes and then your phone should go through Hands Free Activation and work correctly.

--------------

B) If at the end of the Error message you don't get transferred, call the normal 888 Sprint Customer Support number from a different phone Option 1 (for English) -> Option 4 -> Option 4. Tell Tech Support to do a

"CHLS Refresh"

. After they do that, do a Restart on your phone. Hitting "Turn Off" from the power menu will just put it to sleep. After your phone restarts, it should go through Hands Free Activation correctly and update the Profile and PRL.

--------------

C) If your phone doesn't go into Hands Free Activation, download "MSL Reader" from the Market to get your MSL code, or just ask the tech on the phone for it. Then, open up the dialer on your 3D and punch in ##786#. Hit Menu -> Reset. Type in your MSL. Your phone will reboot and go through activation. After that you should be good. Try and make a test call.

Hopefully that helps! If a mod could sticky this, that'd be great.

[CLICHE]Please hit Thanks if I fixed your problem![/CLICHE]

---------------------------------------------------------

A tech support person named Dawn and I found the fix last night when we couldn't get the number for the "special department". If you're curious as to why some people don't get transferred after the error message, it's because they're on an Employee referral plan, which are treated as employee accounts (Everything Plus plans). Those accounts go to call centers in Texas and Virginia only, while the "Error 16 department" is in Maryland.
[HTC EVO 3D] DDiaz007:
Much appreciated for taking your time to write this buddy!

Like my help? Thank me :-)
[HTC EVO 3D] gt3:
Called Sprint. The tech was very nice, but didn't really what error 16 was. Went through pulling out the battery and updating the profile, but neither method worked. It wasn't until I told him about the CHLS refresh that I read on the internet. He knew exactly what it was and went ahead and did it for my phone. Volia! the phone was able to dial out again! Thank you for all your help!
[HTC EVO 3D] c01e:
By the time I called today (about 5 PM) the rep I spoke to laughed as she guessed why I was calling today before even asking for any account info. She did the refresh immediately, So it appears that word is spreading of at least how to fix the "issue"...
[HTC EVO 3D] suddene:
Thanks for the tip ! having the sam issues here. already got my MSL code, but my problem is when I dial ##768# nothing happens just like a refresh of my dialer history .. also tried ##778# and and that brings up the Reverse Logistech support and i press Menu and reset on that and it says restore factory default so I went ahead and tried that and it rebooted and reset and the hands free setup activation did come on for that and so did the auto profile and prl update as soon a I booted back in but still a no go... im using the new Synergy evo 3d rom

any idea why ##768# seems to be inactive for me? thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] Zer0C0oL:
Fixed it, you must have your phone off and the battery out for the fix to work. It didn't work for me the first time as I had to call from my phone, then pulled the battery.

Happily rooted now with tether.
[HTC EVO 3D] Product F(RED):
Because I'm a moron. It's ##786#
[HTC EVO 3D] Android_NooBee:
They didn't do a CHLS refresh. . .didn't know what it was, but she did do a refresh. . and I THINK it worked. I did a test call. . .and then I made a call. but someone called me right after, and i believe that it rang once. . .and then all of a sudden I had a voice mail from them. . .MAYBE I accidentally sent the call to voice mail. . .I shall find out with more testing. . but for right now. .. I thank you!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] Shiggity:
Is there any way that this error can be resolved withOUT calling up Sprint, like via MSL hacking, and forcing it to HFA?
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
Is this possibly Sprint's way of detecting root? I had to call to fix this error too and the rep mentioned this is a new security feature on the network. Just can't find any info on this new security.
[HTC EVO 3D] sandiegopaneraiguy:
It took three calls to Sprint to get this done on my phone. It seems there is a small window of opportunity in which the phone must be turned off when the change is directed to the phone.

After the third attempt, all is good in the hood.

Thanks for the info, I have a good suspicion that without specifically asking for THAT refresh this might have been a much more drawn out process.
[HTC EVO 3D] str8upx:
Id like to add that I had the same problem after rooting. No calls or texts were failing error 97 class 3. I called sprint and preformed the above steps and got me fixed in a few mins. About a week later (and several roms) my texts started failing again with errors 97 class 3 and error 64 class 2. I called sprint again and they got me all fixed up,(for now anyways.) Has anyone else experienced problems after their first call/fix to sprint.
[HTC EVO 3D] Product F(RED):
Never heard of those errors dude.
[HTC EVO 3D] rkb6581:
The refresh is actually a CHLR refresh, you also want to ask them to refresh OMA-DM which will push the reprogramming through the network for your device.

Edit: Also if you want to try to fix it without calling TSS or ATS then try a profile update. If that doesn't work then do the ##RTN#. For it to work you will need your MSL. Once you enter there ##RTN# press the menu key and hit reset, I believe it is. RTN works because it is a reset that actually wipes the programming out of the phone as well as resetting the device. It does completely wipe the phone. Consider yourselves warned.
[HTC EVO 3D] rtmeikle:
I got this error out of nowhere today. I rooted a while back and had no issues. Today I tried to send a text and got the error 97 class 3. Then I tried a call and got the error 16. I didn't change anything on my phone today prior to getting the error.

I'll try the steps in the first post here and see if it works. I hope this isn't an error that will periodically recur after fixing it!
[HTC EVO 3D] rtmeikle:
Yep, it worked! Thanks for this thread.

Has anyone else experienced what I did, where this error just pops up out of no where?

Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] wrasor7:
It just happened to me today after flashing CeanROM 2.5, however the phone worked for over a day after the flash then I got the error out of no where today. Strange, but a call to Sprint fixed it.
[HTC EVO 3D] m4f1050:
Maybe they detect a phone provisioning and triggers this "error 16"
[HTC EVO 3D] resueman:
when i called cs, they asked me for my number. My number is under boost not sprint. Please help me to get this done.
[HTC EVO 3D] Product F(RED):
Then you'd have to call Boost. I can't help you out if you're not on Sprint. Sorry. It's not that I don't want to, it's that I don't know how Boost operates.
[HTC EVO 3D] Morenicano:
Try this.... Go to the phone dialer and type ##(your MSL)# and press edit (but don't edit anything). As soon as I did that, my texts and calls started working!

I was on the phone with a Sprint rep and the other suggestions didn't work but this did. I'm not sure if he did that refresh that everyone is talking about but if anyone is able to test this to let me know if it worked for them please let me know...
[HTC EVO 3D] mrkevo3000:
This will work for boost mobile as well, just make sure you have the correct account information & know what phone is on your account;)---- If your not directed to CS or if the Lady comes on and says please contact your service provider then turn off the the phone and turn on D: phone and make a coulpe of calls, then turn off that phone and turn on the phone thats receving the error 16 and let it complete the call now you should be contacted to a CS rep that already knows your issue----- If the calls doesnt connect you call boost!
[HTC EVO 3D] AlpineMan:
One other way to fix Error 16 is if you have a spare clean ESN Sprint phone, switch your service to that phone temporarily for about an hour. Then switch back to your original phone. I actually prefer this method since I won't have to talk to any Sprint rep! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] Product F(RED):
Or, you know, you can spend 5 minutes making a call. But your choice.
[HTC EVO 3D] joefanelli:
"Boost Mobile" Error 16

I have also found that if you connect to wifi and update your profile and then your prl (in that order is what worked for me), you should be up and running again. I do a lot of flashing and when i recently downgraded my HBOOT to 1.4 (using the awesome methods and tools found here on the XDA! :D) it zapped my flash back to sprint so I had to learn the hard way lol. Now when ever i get weird errors that dont go away with a reboot I follow that method and it works every time!
[HTC EVO 3D] Product F(RED):
PRL and Profile updates don't work over Wifi. You can be connected to Wifi but they are updated via a phone call that you don't see. On the Nexus S 4G, it shows the phone call icon in the notification bar. Same thing with texts not going over Wifi.
[HTC EVO 3D] mike.r.olson:
Should probably advise that doing the ##786# reset option clears data on the phone by actually performing a factory reset before it triggers the hands free activation.
[HTC EVO 3D] bevoosted:
Error 16 on Boost Mobile.

I get these error 16's on Boost Mobile every time I connect a converted Sprint phone to the Boost network for the first time. It is very easy to clear up on Boost...On Boost, the text error for the error 16, is 97 class 2. After you receive that(or if it won't let you dial out) just dial *611. You will receive the Error 16 message and then a Sprint rep will pick up the line a moment later...(they always ask if you have a phone to call back so that they can troubleshoot the phone..say no)

They then ask for:

Name on the account

Phone#

Pin#

What kind of phone your using.

*Important: If you received this on your converted to Boost Sprint phone, you must tell them the phone your using is the one you used to convert the Sprint phone. (If your unsure, just log into your Boost account online, click update handset, and the one listed already is yours.)

Once you do this, the rep will tell you she sent a refresh signal(to your phone), because the phone was not identifying it's self correctly. They will tell you to power the phone off for 30 seconds, power it on and make a minimum 30 second phone call when it powers back up. That's it, talk and text is restored.
[HTC EVO 3D] eazyr0llin:
I used to get the Error Code 16 on my HTC EVO 4g, and it is indeed a security measure implemented to protect your account from fraud. As there are some intelligent people that are able to clone your ESN and use your service, this security measure is used to stop that.
[HTC EVO 3D] htcjunkie317:
I'm flashed over to boost and got this message after first flash and I just let the call go through! Told them my account info and told them i was on a incognito. Turned phone off for 30 seconds, turned it back on and placed a call and Bingo! I was in business!
[HTC EVO 3D] P.Mobile:
this is sweet!!! thanks so much bro!! i just got s-0ff on my evo 4g lte and after that my phone started doing that error 16 switch.. i stayed on the line went rite to sprint and im golden :highfive: thanks again:good:
[HTC EVO 3D] noahsarky:
Worked like a charm

Called sprint, did the refresh and updated profile. Works perfectly. thank you Product F(RED)
[HTC EVO 3D] kDAVR:
No Go

I'm now unrooted and I've tried all the options listed, including the ##MSL number# to no avail. I'm on an EVO LTE and since the battery CAN'T be removed does this have any effect on the reset since the phone doesn't actually power off it just sleeps? Or so I've read...

Both PRL and Profile updates both fail with error 1233 and I was able to fix those when I was running ViperMod. I got a little flash happy and I guess it triggered the Error 16. Thus causing me to unroot in the event I had to go to a brick and mortar Sprint tech since the support line had trouble.

I will be trying the CHLS/R refresh in the morning again before heading to the tech, but again, the enclosed battery still boggles me and might be affecting said reset.
[HTC EVO 3D] Product F(RED):
Usually holding the power button for like ~6 seconds on most devices (including my Galaxy S3, and my old Evo 3D) will turn it off/reboot it.
[HTC EVO 3D] kDAVR:
TY

Yeah, you're right it does. And problem did get resolved. Did a call during sprint business hours to get the error message and just waited on the line for a "Section 16" (lol) tech to take care of it. All said and done in about ten minutes. Asked what the error was and he also said it's a security measure in case someone hacks your phone by getting your ESN or something along those lines. I should have paid more attention, I was cooking bacon during the call...
[HTC EVO 3D] wushington:
s there any way that this error can be resolved withOUT calling up Sprint
[HTC EVO 3D] AlpineMan:
Yes. Activate an old phone. Then reactivate your actual phone.

I have a Flashed to Boost Galaxy S3 that I just bought.. I am getting the "Error 16 shift" I have tried both A & C methods to no avail... the seller was apparently using it on boost b4 selling... the ##725219# option does nothing at all ... when I try to put the MSL number in during reset option.. it fails. I have yet to get the phone to work or be recognized through Boost although the ESN was accepted on the Boost site for updating handset"

in the Status menu the Donor ESN is there although the "My Phone Number is still under the old one.. but I did update PRL and Profile and it did change the username from the previous owner although I am not sure that it went to my username

I have been researching and cant find answers yet
[HTC EVO 3D] MonsterBoX:
... Nevermind.. I figured it out.. thank goodness
[HTC EVO 3D] oohaylima:
What was your solution?
[HTC EVO 3D] ScreamingTurtle:
Same with US Cellular

I have the GS3 with US Cellular and ended up foolishly pressing "reset applet" in SIM toolkit in Cyanogenmod. Next day I try to call and it says "error 16 [spanish] switch 386." US Cellular tech support had no idea what it was and thought it was my handset. I did a hard reset, nothing, flashed a new ROM, still nothing. Should I try and have them reset the network? What are your thoughts?
[HTC EVO 3D] AlpineMan:
Activate another phone in place of your GS3. Then after an hour or so, reactivate your GS3. This method works with Sprint... Not sure if it will work with US Cellular.
[HTC EVO 3D] Azeem00:
Thank you, you were spot on, after the error message it transferred me to the special department that specifically deals with error 16 messages and solved my problem.
[HTC EVO 3D] encephalophiliac:
Hi! I did the same thing on my US Cellular Galaxy Note 2, but I'm not getting an "error 16" message - instead, I get a message that says, "you are roaming. To contact your mobile service provider, dial 1 to purchase a calling PIN..." I've tried battery/SIM pulls, *228, and have dealt with USC level 2 tech support, all to no avail. Any ideas? I'm running a CM based ROM, so I'd rather not take the phone into USC if possible. Thanks!

PS, could you explain more about activating another phone? Is it applicable to my little situation?
[HTC EVO 3D] Product F(RED):
I haven't been on Sprint for years (couldn't stand their slow service and I hate CDMA); I'm on T-Mobile now.

My suggestion to you is make a backup of your current ROM, in recovery. Then flash a stock or stock-based ROM. Reactivate the phone. Then back and restore your CM ROM. Activation sticks regardless of ROM.
[HTC EVO 3D] garbb:
I have a flashed phone that I am using on sprint SERO and I had "error #16, switch 390" when trying to make any call but 3g data was still working.

After the error message I waited for a few seconds and it connected me to some guy who said he was with the "sprint network authentication team". He asked me a few questions, my phone number, name, security question for my account, and what type of phone I was using. I told him the make and model of my donor phone. He asked If I had recently reset the phone, I told him that I had done a factory reset. He then said that he would reset the connectivity of my phone and that I should turn it off for 2 minutes.

After I did this calls worked again.

This is basically the same advice that has already been posted here but I just thought I would let people know that this will probably work for them.

This happened to me after I had recently turned the donor phone on. I read that this can happen if you have the donor and flashed phone turned on at the same time but I am always very careful to never do this so I am not sure what happened. Maybe the two phones were turned on to close to each other in time?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] exabit:
I have successfully modified vold so that it can mount both xfs and ext2 file systems.

Why those two you say? because xfs is supposedly the fastest journaling file system and is probably the only competiton to ext4. why ext2 ?because it doesn't journal at all. I mounted both fs's with noatime and nodiratime option .the following is my result(and i've attacked the modified vold so just format your sdcard with fat,xfs or ext2 and after boot and successful mount do a chmod -R 777 /mnt/sdcard from adb shell).

Xfs:

mount:

/dev/block/vold/179:3 /mnt/sdcard xfs rw,noatime,nodiratime,attr2,logbufs=8,noquota 0 0
/dev/block/vold/179:3 /mnt/secure/asec xfs rw,noatime,nodiratime,attr2,logbufs=8,noquota 0 0
tmpfs /mnt/sdcard/.android_secure tmpfs ro,relatime,size=0k,mode=000 0 0

read: 8.8 Mb/s write: 22.2 Mb/s total: 279

ext2:

mount:

/dev/block/vold/179:3 /mnt/sdcard ext2 rw,noatime,nodiratime,errors=remount-ro 0 0
/dev/block/vold/179:3 /mnt/secure/asec ext2 rw,noatime,nodiratime,errors=remount-ro 0 0
tmpfs /mnt/sdcard/.android_secure tmpfs ro,relatime,size=0k,mode=000 0 0

read: 6.2 MB/s write: 20.4 MB/s total: 251

the results clearly were a surprise to me since everyone I've talked to said that ext2 should be faster since it has no journaling and that xfs was designed for large video files and has journaling.

but the benchmark says it all,xfs is the clear winner.

I'd love to hear if anyone has any suggestion on a better file system or how to optimize either ext2 or xfs for android.

btw, my phone is nexus s(internal sdcard storage) the benchmark i used was antutu and i was running it at 1000Mhz (didn't overclock since i wanted to see the performance at stock clock speed).

oh and make sure to do mount -orw,remount tmpfs /mnt/sdcard/.android_secure

before doing a chmod -R 777 /mnt/sdcard
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] smidge:
Can you post your changes to vold? I'm very interested on this.

I do notice three dead pixels as well on the screen...

Anyone experiencing anything similar?
