I have no problem with the steps above.

I am unclear on both of these steps. When you say restore, do you mean copy all the contents of my sd card that I backed up to the PC back over to the sd card?

What does wipe all/except (x3) sd mean?

OD hwa integration possible?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jrollercoasters:
here you go =], and did you portion my way or that other guys way? trust me i know what im talking about, ive been with this rom since day 1, you need to partion it the way its suppose to be portioned and let it sit at the begging
[EVO 4G Android Development] jrollercoasters:
my bad man i meant wipe everything 3 x except sd car, and restore your stuff from your comp to sd, that you backed up dont forget to hit that thank button =]
[EVO 4G Android Development] yotie:
look

hey why is everyone her saying to back everything up on to your pc from sd card...then partition....iv never done that and my rom is working flawlessly im on day 2-3....????????????????????????????
[EVO 4G Android Development] TurbineTester:
Ok i followed the steps you did and have the card partitioned the way you said with only 1024 in ext2, upgraded to ext3.

I wiped everything, did the full wipe.zip

then flashed the rom zip

And i am still stuck in a boot loop.

Not sure what i'm doing wrong...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Evilone69tmg:
When you partition your sd card it wipes everthing. Music,pictures,etc. After you partition the card you can move all that back onto the sd card. So you lose nothing on the card that way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Keyz450:
this is a great rom, i love everything about it but, some reason mines is buggy, glitchy and always loading, htc screen pop ups and so on,
[EVO 4G Android Development] yotie:
i understand that....BUT!!! why do it when u don't have to...i didnt do it and im running smooth as butter?????????????????
[EVO 4G Android Development] Evilone69tmg:
So your saying you did not partition your card before flashing the rom? Glad it's running good for you. The reason it was recommended to partition your card was that the rom was bigger then most. So if you have a lot of apps you'd run out of space fast.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jrollercoasters:
You let it sit for a while after flash complete? Then wiped both caches, also if its stuck in boot loop you can do a battery pull wipe both and try again, how long have you let it sit on loop, first run takes a while

I don't think i understand what you mean...i never get the option to just let the phone "sit" after it flashes the ROM. The phone automatically goes into a boot loop, as though it were part of the install...the ROM tells me that it's rebooting, and when it does it just keeps rebooting...
[EVO 4G Android Development] yotie:
this it what i did.....downloaded rom.....down loaded amaron recovery....renamed the file to pc36img..placed on root of sd card..battery pulled..put battery back in.hold down power and "down" voloume...got to bootloader...bootloader then scans for pc36img file and asked to update the file,,,i let it update...the it asks if i wanted to reboot..i choose "no...i choose recovery...now im in amaron recovery....then in AmonRa Recovery i just did a wipe factory 3x"s...cache..3"s..delvik 3x"s... data 3x"s AND!! SD CARD.aNdroid_secure 3x"s then installed the rom

not once did i hit the partition sd card....reboot....and whala!!!!! the rom is running smooth...not one forceclose.......

[EVO 4G Android Development] Evilone69tmg:
When you flashed the rom your phone should reboot 3 times. As that's the a2sd doing it's thing. Then you should get the splash screen (white evo 4g). Then after that you should get the boot animation. Are you seeing the animation over and over (bootloop)? Or the phone rebooting over and over again. Maybe a bad download? Did you check the md5sum?
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
I am pretty sure you have a bad download. You need to do a md5sumcheck, or you need to redownload altogether. I'm going to explain the OP for you since you are having so much trouble. I see that you downloaded amon-ra haus mod, that is good. You need to have your card partitioned exactly the way you have it done. So you are good there too. Now, you need to wiped all userdata/factory reset only once. I say 3 times as a disclaimer, but once is actually sufficient. Also, you don't need a wipeall zip, that is also a placebo in my opinion. Although, you can never be to cautious, so if you want to wipe a million times, feel free.

Flash the ROM, that's it. If it doesn't immediately reboot itself and then reboot again and one last time (a total of 3 boots), then the install didn't work. The only thing that this could mean was a bad download. That's it, I can assure you I flash crap all day long every day, I destroy my evo with abuse and this thing is butter. Try downloading the ROM again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CwbAnDroidCwB:
Off topic but since ill pretty

Much flash anything...... Smurfed out 6.2 is treating my express pretty nice... Just sayin lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] TurbineTester:
I downloaded again, checked the md5 sum, and it's correct on my pc. I checked it again as it sits on the sd card.

I get down to the last message on the install, it says it successfully installed, and it says have fun enjoying your new toy ( or soemthign to that effect) and then says Rebooting now

I then go into an endless boot loop.

I do not see the little android unpacking logo that i am familiar seeing with previous new ROM flashes. The only screen i see is a screen with a black background with white letters in a single line on the screen that says "htc EVO 4G"

thats the only thing i see until the screen goes black, the phone vibrates, then shows that screen again for 30 seconds then wash rinse repeat to infinity and beyond.

I'm pretty sure that screen was part of a previous theme or install that i was able to change. I DO NOT get the white screen and black letters.

Is there some other setting, perhaps some fastboot, or recovery setting that could be preventing the actual boot up of the device after an install?

I have flashed many ROM, though none recently. I've been using myn's WARM 2.2 for many moons...

There must be some setting in hboot or recovery or somewhere that needs to be tweaked.

Yeah, it sounds like your sd is corrupted. If this is not just on one ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Diablo67:
You asked this exact question in the Q&A section and i answered you,you need to read more about whats going on,3.5 roms are very big and take up alot of space and memory,because they arent made to run on EVO 4G,which has low internal memory/space to begin with,we only made it to sense 2.1 on the evo,so the roms are taking longer to boot and sometimes will bootloop,but they will work,you might need to reboot again to get to the set-up screen/homescreen,these are great roms and the devs that make them work,work very hard to make them run on your phone,they also require you to partition your SD card to get them to work correctly and play nice with your phone.So try what i said and see if it helps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
Thanks me matee
[EVO 4G Android Development] TurbineTester:
Thank you so much for your response. You are right that i am behind the curve as i have not kept up with recent developements on this phone since things were working well. However, i have followed all the instructions i have been given so far to the letter

You are correct, I asked this question in the Q&A section. But i put the question in Q&A AFTER i put the last bit of information on my previous post here telling everyone that I was having the same problem with multiple ROM's. Rather than burden this thread anymore with the specific issue i was having, i posted there. As it was obvious at that point that my issue was not with this specific ROM.

I do understand that partitioning the sd card is needed. I did that. Multiple times. According to the exact instructions provided both times. Most recently, as i stated previously here and in the Q&A thread, to a 32 swap, 1024 ext2, which i then converted to ext3, per the instructions provided to me. I then wiped everything according to the instructions provided here.

Your instructions on exactly what to wipe in the Q&A section are different that what was written here. I followed them. I'll post the results back in Q&A. Thanks everyone for the help here, hopefully, my next post here will be to say thank you for the awesome ROM!

Also, OD, I got all of your original theme restored except for the gmail...its still coming up with billbowers' clear screen from the act theme I flashed. Any work around on this?

[EVO 4G Android Development] billbowers:
I can't say for sure, as I've never looked through his theme before, but it's possible that he didn't theme the gmail.apk and therefor the old one is not being overwritten. I would suggest removing the gmail.apk from the rom and pushing it to the proper location. Most likely system/app. But I believe this rom also uses data/ app and data/s-app if I'm not mistaken. Wherever you pulled the apk from, push back to that same location. Hope this helps.

Thanks and a little advice

Thanks, Bill. We need to link up on chat. I'll make sure to hit you up. Thanks for adding your two cents, here. It's been a dramatic help on my inbox, lol. :cool:

I also want to add, that I've found to categories of folks having trouble with the ROM. One group is the one that like to tweak and add new kernels, that's cool, I totally would do the same, but expect hiccups to happen, I can't do anything about those. The other group is the new to flashing group. Make sure you read the OP. I made sure to include ONLY what you need to do and no more. Make sure you download the recovery I posted. Install as directed. I am certain you will be hiccup free. For everyone else, put this ROM threw the limits. Put it to the most brutal you can. I want to hear it all. That way I can smurf, or supercharge, or bulletproof, or whatever I need to in order to make this ROM put the rest to shame. No offense to the other devs, but hey, I ain't doing this for any other reason than to whoop our EVO's butts. ;)

Digital camo for our troops

Red and gold for the Marine Corp

Btw, thanks to OD, and bill for all your help! These guys are awesome at what they do, as are the other developers on this site.

Still waiting to see if its possible to change the sound of the phone keypad being touched to whatever you want, lol.

Ok, so I flashed about an hour ago and have been playing with it since. I love this ROM! It's fast, it works, there is tons of free onboard memory, etc. This is so awesome. Thanks so much to the OP for this beautiful ROM!

My only complaint is that the boot-up animation and subsequent eplileptic seizure inducing title page are really obnoxious. I would prefer something more sedate. Just a minor thing really. I freaking love this ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] leon sprouse:
I use a boot animation , boot screen and down animation that I installed myself. Its not real hard , so if you want then change them. As a suggestion here is what I use. Victoria Beckham (former Spice Girl) in black with a black penther is my boot screen. EVO Fire is my boot animation coupled with "Ride of the Valkeries" as the sound for the fire (a perfect match) and "Lucy Pendor" blowing a kiss and the words "good bye" is my down animation.

Ok, so I have found three small issues with this ROM.

1. I set a pin lock. When in landscape mode, after I activate the circle lock, the T9 pin lock pad only shows the upper left numbers. It's still in regular mode even though phone in landscape. So i have to rotate vertical to get T9 pad to display properly so I can unlock.

2. I need a German keyboard, so I use the "AnySoftKeyboard" and German language pack. I installed from play store and went into settings to activate, but I still get whatever keyboard is baked into the ROM. Any way to fix this?

3. The landscape mode is wonky. It keeps the screens in that scrolled mode rather than full screen. It causes mis-selections a lot. Also, pressing on app key brings up app launcher menu, but it doesn't scroll right. It jumps from page to page. This is only in landscape mode.

Issue 1 cant help ya there...:D

Issue 2 try settings then language and keyboards to activate if no go then open the keyboard app it self and you should be able to install it. I'm using perfect keyboard and it works fine.

Issue 3 is a sizing thing that OD is aware of I think and is working on it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sleestax:
Thanks for the feedback. PM sent. I'm going to give the "Go Keyboard" a try since it seems to get good ratings and has a german QWERTZ keyboard. I hope that Issue 3 gets resolved by the OD soon, as it stands, the landscape mode is barely functional.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thebbbrain:
As far as I know, the landscape screen is as desired by OP. I asked this question back in pre-beta status. I don't believe it will ever 'fill up' the screen.

You can always try the recalibration of the screen. I never had any significant issues other than the occasional hard to click spot in the lower right corner of the screen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dtowngs4g:
I've had Google play keep stopping with error message, reinstalled. Poweramp refuses to play, acting real cracky yet other music players work. Only thing I'm gonna change is keyboard, kinda hard on eyes. I love the 3.0 period. The sound of music is good w/o extra sound kernel. Running stock kernel now cuz anthrax didn't seem to mesh.
[EVO 4G Android Development] One_Shot_2012:
You can customize your existing keyboard to what you want it to be...in my opinion, better than downloading another program to take more space. There is a tutorial by OD and bill a few pages back, I think on 60 about it. I did it, and it looks awesome!
