Update from viperROM Redline v2.5 RC2

I am still on old ROM “viperROM Redline v2.5 RC2”. I have never done any OTA updates.

Can I install new ROM the same way I installed v2.5 RC2?

Anything I should check before I start installation?

Thanks a lot.
[HTC EVO 3D] thoughtunleashed:
Try clearing the data for both the market and for google services framework. It has worked for me every time I have had this problem. Oh, and reboot after you clear them, just to be on the safe side. Hope this helps.

If you're S-Off and hboot 1.40, then you can wipe and flash just like any other rom. If you're S-On and hboot 1.50, then you'll probably want to downgrade your hboot version and achieve S-Off. Some people have reported problems, or complications with them being s-on, so it's strongly recommended to downgrade first, if you have to, that is.
[HTC EVO 3D] pokedude750:
OR

If you have S-OFF HBOOT 1.5

Your just as fine as using 1.4 S-OFF
[HTC EVO 3D] Ratlegion:
Why does Goo say that I am up to date, but ViperRom updater says there is an update? What is the difference?
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
Is this the most up to date ViperROM? I just got S-OFF For 1.5 hboot, but I don't feel like sifting through 10 pages to find the most up to day viperrom.
[HTC EVO 3D] *.jpg:
Yes

[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
Ah, so it'd be a good bet that this is the one (of the three different ViperROM threads I've seen) to flash?

Also, I don't have the ICS Leak, since apparently I can't put it on my phone since it is rooted and, now, S-OFF.
[HTC EVO 3D] *.jpg:
This is the most recent, so if you wanted to give Viper ROM a try, this is the one. I'm not sure if viper and vin are on different phones now, but they were really responsive to users when questions/issues arose.

i'm currently using viper beta3,

any link to download beta3.1 ?

my phone, soff 1.5,

how can i flash this rom ?
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Their attention has been allocated to the Evo LTE forum, unfortunately.
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
Suck, well, apparently I'm eligible for an upgrade, so I may get the EVO LTE tomorrow.

UPDATE: So, I'm still on Gingerbread, will this ROM work? I'm going to go ahead to download it since I won't be able to upgrade till June 1st of next year.
[HTC EVO 3D] exhilaration:
FYI to my fellow viperROM users, Google Now (from Jellybean) is working with this ICS ROM. Here's what I did:

1. Use your favorite file explorer to change the permission of /system to read/write. Write down the previous permissions, you should restore them when you're done.

2. Download "Velvet-Thes0o-5.apk" from the above link and copy it to /system/app/

3. Rename /system/app/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox-1.apk to com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox-1.bak

4. Rename /system/app/Velvet-Thes0o-5.apk to GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk, set its permissions to rw-r-r

5. Reboot

6. Tap on your Google Search widget, it should start Google Now

7. Remember to set the permissions to /system back to what they were.

Here's a screenshot of it running on my phone, I'm running viperROM IC3D Beta 3.1: http://i.imgur.com/alfla.png

The Voice Search APK works too but I've just done a few basic tests ("How tall is the Empire State Building?").
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
So, I'm trying to download the ROM, but it won't let me.
[HTC EVO 3D] *.jpg:
This rom is a bit of a cul de sac. Might I recommend d3rp rom if you're interested in a Sense rom that's actively being developed?

Swyped from my toasted d3vil
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
This one, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1649031 ? Cause it needs the ICS leak, but apparently I can't use the leak on a rooted phone. I did some research and a guide said I couldn't, though that might have changed. However, Sprint has finally released a date for the EVO 3D for getting ICS, so if this is the one you suggested, I will wait to get ICS and for the team to update it so the base is not the leaked version.
[HTC EVO 3D] mrlakadaddy:
Get the update from goo manager...both these devs are working on an update for EVO LTE 4g
[HTC EVO 3D] mrlakadaddy:
Derp Rom is based off of this one FYI..
[HTC EVO 3D] Ratlegion:
Would someone please help me with my questions??

Why does the Goo updater say that my Rom can be updated, but the Viperrom updater says I am up to date.

Also, does the stock ics rom have issues with Chrome?
[HTC EVO 3D] mpsantiago:
1) The Goo updater is kinda dumb. It did the same thing on mine.

2) Yes. It's a graphic driver issue and it effects not only the E3D also several other HTC devices like the One variants.

Hopefully it wont be to long. I hate to switch to another ROM.

Warning do not download if you are flashed

don't download this rom if you are flashed! it overwrite the MEID AND NV ITEMS, and you have to freaking downgrade back to gingerbread re-flash then avoid this rom at all costs. :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
[HTC EVO 3D] Hippie459MN:
Ummm... I think you did something else cause I have flashed to 2 other roms to try out and it worked perfect. This does not overwrite your MEID at all. If it did your phone would simply not work as each phone has its own specific MEID number and thats how the carrier activates and deactivates your phone and stuff. If the MEID does not match what the carrier has phone no workey!

And 246 pages and you are the very first person to say this so I am leaning towards you doing something wrong and not the rom.
[HTC EVO 3D] Mazda:
Warning this ROM stole my girlfriend and took off with the dog too........HAHAHAHHAHA

I can't wait to try to ROM out! From what I can tell in reading a few pages and the OP, this ROM looks like a winner! :)
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Lol you don't have any idea what the hell you're talking about.

I just wanna say sorry to everyone that we no longer support this ROM but we have just moved to the LTE. There will be some Team Venom love for you guys though :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Mazda:
Ah that's a shame because is a good rom! I flashed it last night and still running this morning and I'm impressed!

Can't wait to see how takes over and what they do :)

See ya Viperboy

Thinking I am gonna check out Coolexe's Cool Sense 3.6 ROM until they (team venom) come up with something. Really wanting to get on an official Sprint ROM for some reason. Cant wait to see what the guys (and/or gals if applicable) come up with though.

Viper, Tell em to hurry up and get to work already. LoL :D

Is Google Now compatible with this rom?
[HTC EVO 3D] Hippie459MN:
Yes, A few pages back someone posted how they got it working. I tried it but found it to be a battery hog and wasnt all that special to me so I reverted back to the standard google search.

Im having an issue with the phone crashing and having to remove the battery to get it started again after it sits for a. while
[HTC EVO 3D] Hafded7:
First off let me say this is the smoothest most efficient clean ICS Rom with amazing battery and everything works .. quite well if I may add . But here's my only issue I'm having. I'm on hboot 1.4 s-off and I do a complete wipe of everything before I flash ... Now everything flashes easy and everything works. Now I use titanium to restore all my apps and move them to the sd. I don't move any system files just my user apps . But everytime I get everything set up : all apps restored and everything set up .I start getting random reboots . Now I use things like adfree ,cache cleaner root, etc. Nothing that changes the system frame to drastically...the one I use that changes the most is animod animations ... I've tried with and with out it with the same results . I can't figure out what's causing the random reboots ... And its every 3 to 5 minutes . And its always happens like and hour after I'm like ohkay everything is set up perfect I can just start using it without having to set anything else up ... Now when it starts the rebooting .. everything boots fine and loads ..then when I start using my phone my soft keys stop responding but my touchscreen works fine .. that's when I know its going to reboot . So I've tried doing a system wipe and reflashing several times and everything works perfect with no issues until I finish setting everything up . Can some one help please? Am I doing something that's causing this? Am I just expecting to much from beta using it as my everyday Rom as far as having all my apps on it ? about 250+ give or take .. would a different kernal fix the issue ? because it works flawlessly until everything is set up completely. And I have about 480 mb of internal memory left in the end of my set up .

Oh and I almost forgot this also happens everytime I plug my phone into the computer and put it in disk drive mode . So I stopped doing that hoping that was the issue and just put my sd card in the computer directly . But the issue still persists . I really want to be able to use this Rom as it is the best one I've come across. But I'm stuck in a bind with it . Thanks in advance .

Edit: so when I use the viperrom updater app it says my Rom is old . (3.1 update) it sends me to download the 2.5 rc zip.now Im probably mistaken but Isn't the 3.1 newer? Or is it because 3.0 is beta and the rc starts at newer versions? The thing is in the reviews for the 2.5 rc they state the camera isn't working . Which in 3.0 beta everything works I.e camera 3g 4g 3d everything . I'm confused lol

Yet rid of any task killer apps. That cause glitches and don't improve anything. Also get rid of any unused apps that use ram. The more apps the more chance of a freeze up. The updater app has not been updated in a very long time. The now use gooim app. I hope this helps.

[HTC EVO 3D] Hafded7:
Will do with the task killer . I use one and I think its more of a placibo effect more than actually improving anything . Haha . And I've done a wipe of all unused apps and RAM hogs and just have the ones I use on a regular bases ...

I'm having problems with this ROM. Last week or so I keep seeing messages like Facebook or group on has stopped working would you like to wait or close. And every time I restart it says vmd client has stopped..... Any ideas.
[HTC EVO 3D] twister99403:
I know personally since the last Facebook updates its been giving me he'll on rooted and unrooted phones but you can try fixing permissions in recovery, the vdm client error, you running any custom kernels? That's normally the cause from kernels here on xda anyway :)

Please help!

I am a complete noob. Sprint Evo 3d 1.5 s-on, I have been running Viper IC3D for a month now, loving it,should have stuck with that. I wanted to try one of the Jelly Bean Roms, specifically the Team D.I.R.T. one, but I didn't want to have to keep flashing the two roms back and forth. Found out about Boot Manager Pro on here, and found a thread about using it with hboot 1.5 s-on. followed the instructions, booted into D.I.R.T. rom. fiddled with it, decided to go back to my phone rom. Boot Manager kept unexpectedly closing on me, wouldn't stay open long enough to do anything. So I went into recovery and restored my nandroid of Viper. But D.I.R.T. loaded! Said screw it, and wiped and reflashed Viper. D.I.R.T. loaded! Couldn't get anything but that ROM to load no matter what I did. Uninstalled Boot Manager, nothing but D.I.R.T.So I hunted around here and found a thread that said if all else failed, to manually remove Bootloader from sd and go from there. Did that, and it soft bricked my phone. I can get into recovery, but no matter what I do when I reboot it hangs in HTC white boot screen. I cannot afford another phone and don't get an upgrade til next year. Please Say there is a solution to this! I cried all last night, couldn't sleep, and I'm crying again. Side note, i accidentally erased half the C; Drive on my laptop trying things I found on another android forum,and system restore didn't work. So I'm back here, and I'm scared to try anything else, but I have to do something. Help!!!!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] shizkoff777:
Ok hey have you tryed erasing your sd card downloading a stock ruu,flag that and see if it fixes it .oh and your not soft bricked we can fix this jus be positive and you can fix it
[HTC EVO 3D] Marta9227:
So you're saying I need to format my sd? Where do I find the stock RUU? Do i flash it just like a rom?
[HTC EVO 3D] shizkoff777:
I'm not really saying you have to but that's where I would start .first format your card backing up anything that matters to u .second download a stock ruu on your computer,it will be a exe.file meaning it runs on your computer ,plug your phone in and boot to bootloader,then run the file it will take you back stock everything.if your s off you will stay s off at that point if your phone is working awesome.hit Mr up and ill help you get back where you was before you messed with bootmanager.ill have links in a,minute. Another thing I'm not a expert at boot manager but I know we can fix this

Here's where to get the ruus from personally I would use 2.17 one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19089387

[HTC EVO 3D] nelliott500:
I'm back to ViperROM. I was having an issue where if I hooked it the phone to my PC and unmounted the SD card, it would reset my ringtone and MMS tone. I had the ROM installed for a couple months and decided I would try something else because it was kind of annoying.

Flashed d3rpICS. Everything seemed pretty good at first. It was clean and ran well. Then I started noticing my touch screen would stop working on occasion. I'd have to lock and unlock to get it back. I also noticed my touchscreen misfiring once in a while. I'd touch one thing but it would actually touch something way off. There were also times where I would unlock the phone and the weather app would be up but I wasn't sure why because I didn't touch it.

So, here I am again. Back to a ROM that I know is solid. Maybe the issue I had was just a fluke. Who knows? I'd rather have that one minor problem with an otherwise solid, efficient ROM than something that's completely retarded.
[HTC EVO 3D] Hippie459MN:
Im not knocking this rom what so ever but there are so many better ICS roms out there now and even some sweet JB roms. This rom was #1 in the day if you ask me but since sprint released the official ICS, this became a thing of the past and being this is on the leaked VM software its all old news. Update to something that is at least based off some official software I say but thats just me.
[HTC EVO 3D] kinextions:
Can you recommend a ROM that 4G works with??? Thanks. I'm still with this ROM but my battery is draining fast these days and not sure why.....
[HTC EVO 3D] Hippie459MN:
Does it do it only on this ROM or on all ROMs?

You could try ZR3D-XL. That is a sense 3.6 rom. I think there is a CM10/JB rom with working 4G/WiMax now but not sure.

I am running Mazdas JB rom but 4G is not yet working but he is working on it. I dont have 4G where I live so to me its not something that matters to me really.
[HTC EVO 3D] kinextions:
Only on this one.....I havent used another ROM in a while. Should I just re-install or find a new one....but I want to be able to use 4G and I notice most new ROMS dont work with 4g...not sure why???
[HTC EVO 3D] Hippie459MN:
Sense 4.0+ doesnt work with 4G and not really sure why so you will need a sense 3.6 rom. ZR3D-XL from dropzeroc is a great sense 3.6 ROM if your going to stick with ICS. There are plenty of them on here. If your going to run JB there are a few roms that have working 4G. I personally love JB over ICS on my Evo3D.

While this is a totally reasonable request, the cosmetic things won't happen in the first few builds while we work on getting the ROM performing the way we want it.

Possibly, maybe we will get Sense 4.0 officially one day?

Anyone have any opinions on battery life yet?

I know I've been playing with it a ton but even having it plugged in for a good portion of the day I feel like it took forever to recharge...and then after getting to 100%, it dropped to 90 pretty quickly. I had put 4ext back on earlier so I wanted to make sure it was working fine so I had it fix permissions and by the time it returned, battery was down to 70% (1.5 hours from 100%).

I know it's going to take some time for it to get the kind of battery life we're used to with ViperROM but I'm just hoping it doesn't die in my pocket at work tomorrow (assuming its stable enough that my alarm still goes off in the morning :D )
