Part 2

Flashed

: Superwipe, MeanRom ICS v2.6, (sadly waiting on Leedroid update :( )

-

After Reboot

: hboot 1.58, s-Off, "relocked", 1.09.00.0706 radio, MrICS v2.6 (2.89.651.2 build), Vm Leak Kernel 3.0.16-g4211684 (default). Booted fine.

Sprint Kernel Flash

(If you want to flash "Custom" kernel, skip this, go to Part 3): Wipe cache/dalvik cache, Flash "2.89-kernel-requires-hboot-1.58-s-off.zip" from MeanRom ICS folder on Sdcard.

-

After Reboot

: hboot 1.58, s-Off, "relocked", 1.09.00.0706 radio, MrICS v2.6 (2.89.651.2 build), Sprint ICS 2.89 Kernel 3.0.16-g294f767. Booted fine.

Part 3

Athx Kernel Flash

: Wipe cache/dalvik cache, Flash "3.0.4 kernel.zip" from Sdcard.

-

After Reboot

: hboot 1.58, s-Off, "relocked", 1.09.00.0706 radio, MrICS v2.6 (2.89.651.2 build), Atx Kernel 3.0.25. Booted fine. Need to learn settings/adjustments again.

Update/Possible Issues:

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

The reason mine says "Relocked" is because I had previously ran HTC Unlock prior to the Hboot 1.50 to 1.40 downgrade (its always there, just previously "hidden" by "revolutionary" as you pointed out). Interesting all the same, because I thought you had to HTC Unlock before Jbear S-Off, so I would have expected to see "Relocked" on yours as well.

[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
No, and in fact if you don't choose the JPB custom bootloader it will show as *** LOCKED *** right after the wire trick with the stock bootloader. It is true that you have to be HTC unlocked to do JuopunutBear, but all trace of that is gone (except of course the fact that you got a token from the HTCDEV site) after you get S-OFF. That was one of the reasons I decided to go S-OFF since the wire trick gets rid of any trace that the phone was ever HTC unlocked. I've attached a picture of the 1.58 bootloader currently installed on my phone.

On another subject, it looks like you flashed the Athx kernel after you flashed the 2.89 kernel without a restore of the MeanROM base config in between. If that's true you had better luck than I did because my phone wouldn't boot when I installed the Athx kernel after the 2.89 kernel was flashed. It worked fine when I installed it with Flash Image GUI while the 2.89 kernel was installed so maybe I forgot to clear cache and dalvik after flashing the Athx kernel, and FIG does that by default before rebooting unless you uncheck those boxes. I'll try it again and make sure I clear cache/dalvik after flashing the Athx kernel.

You can copy it out of the original MeanROM-ICS-v26-E3D.zip (it's in the SdCard folder). Just use 7zip or similar to open it.

+ 1 for the Jbear over Hboot Downgrade then. I never picked up on it clearing out the "unlocked" status.

I'm going to load up the Sprint 2.89 Kernel again, then move back to Athx 3.0.4 and see if I can duplicate it. Maybe I was lucky.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
I just tried flashing Athx 3.0.4 on top of the 2.89 stock kernel and got the same results. Software info in settings still shows the HTC 2.89 kernel version and WiFi is broken so it looks like a partial flash. I let the 4EXT app setup the clear cache+dalvik before the flash and I cleared it manually after.

[HTC EVO 3D] TrofeoSC:
When you flash the 3.0.4 kernel does your wifi work? Mine errors out.

4G doesn't work either.

Stuck on 1x

I love this ROM! Thanks for all the hard work.

I'm only on hboot 1.50 and have s-on. Flashed via 4EXT Recovery. Everything is working awesome, but it appears I'm stuck on 1x (or at least the graphic always shows 1x) even in areas I know I get 3g service in (and regardless of reboots, toggling the mobile network, etc.)

Any advice for a newbie to this ROM?
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
That's what I get when I flash it with 4EXT. Try booting into MeanROM 2.6 with the 2.89 kernel installed and flash Athx using Flash Image GUI. That worked for me and one other person who also had problems with installing 3.0.4 on top of the 2.89 kernel.

So I'm on meanrom 2.6 and updated my hboot to 1.58 to run the new kernel and I noticed something. Why do I have this line under the radio version?

Read this post.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] mpgrimm2:
Yep, I got the same results/partial flash (90zRam made it to the init.d folder).Tried updating to latest 4Ext Recovery RC5. No change. Had to use FlashImage after 2.89 kernel to get 3.0.4 on there. Went back & verified that it only works after clean install of MR 2.6 with Vm Leak Kernel. So it seems like it may be either a 4ext issue, 2.89 Kernel issue, or the 3.0.4 kernel installer issue. I will update my previous post.
[HTC EVO 3D] Mr. Q 5:
It seems like with this new update the SMS text message count has been removed.. How can I get that to show again?

Thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] HiddenKnight:
Thanks Man. I guess I won't worry about it now. I Hit that like button!
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Or a combination. Since the 3.0.4 kernel installs fine over the default VM leak kernel, that would indicate that the kernel installer and 4EXT are OK. OTOH, since FIG can install the 3.0.4 kernel on top of the 2.89 kernel successfully, why can't 4EXT? I'm clear on the problem, but not the cause. :confused:

Thanks for testing it.

[HTC EVO 3D] Krazie:
Excellent work - Thank you! - Here's a procedure that worked for me

I spent a very long time trying to upgrade to MeanROM ICS 2.6 and I can honestly say that I am extremely happy with the results.

Here's my journey and hopefully it will help others with any issues or concerns with connectivity.

1. MeanROM (forget which version - doesnt matter), 2.17 kernel with hoot 1.50 (S-On) htcdev unlocked.

2. Backup current app/cache and system data via Titanium Backup (excellent backup application).

3. Relock phone via boot load eom lock.

4. Flash recovery with EXT4

5. SuperWipe and Flash signed Sprint 2.17 Evo 3D release via EXT4.

6. Start up phone with Sprint 2.17 and go to system updates.

7. Agree to update to ICS from Sprint OTA (Wireless preferred)

8. Update might fail the first time. Try step 7 again, this time it was successful or me (took about 25 mins).

9. Boot up Sprint ICS 2.89 and disable fast boot.

10. Unlock phone (HTCdev - boot loader unlock)

11. Reboot phone to recovery (EXT4)

12. SuperWipe to clean up Sprint crapware, then flash MeanROM ICS 2.6.

13. Boot up MeanROM ICS 2.6. (Wifi and 4G did not work. Phone claimed it had kernel 2.17 but displayed 3.09 or the 2.89 kernel - I believe this created soe sort of conflict)

14. Flash freeza's 2.89 kernel with updated Hboot 1.58 using: Flash Image GUI.

15. Enjoy a fully operational MeanROM ICS 2.6 with Hboot 1.58 and S-On!

16. Don't forget to restore your applications from the Titanium Backup... :D

Please feel free to append any links to the previously mentioned files. (Alway follow the xda rules when posting any links).

I see many people struggling trying to get this right, hope this helps. (I am not responsible if you brick your phone as I have only provided information on what worked for me in my particular situation.

Thank you for your time. I will not be available frequently to answer any questions. (Let s know how your upgrade process work out.)

Ok, I just upgraded from 2.4 to 2.6 via my phone. Not really reading anything...my bad. Needless to say, it didnt work out like it was suppose to. I then had to then scramble around with my laptop to try and secure a wifi signal to download the correct files (currently at the hospital with my fiancé with a bogus signal).

After going through the proper steps (super wipe, etc..) I ended up with what I think is the correct setup. The problem is that the phone is no longer roaming. Something that I was relying on because the cell service is so limited in the hospital. Is there a setting that needs to be checked or flashed? I cant even flip the switch for the mobile network because it is greyed out. Do I need to go outside and have the allow the phone to find a tower? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you gone into networks and made sure roaming is turned on? I believe you have to check off the international roaming option.

Camera Mod

The coolexe camera mod that was included in MeanROM ICS 2.4 just got updated for the 2.89.651.2 build.

Edit: coolexe also get Leedroid Tweaks working in the new Cool ICS V8 ROM, but I don't think he has a downloadable zip for that yet.

[HTC EVO 3D] asrebel:
Just a FYI (in case someone else runs into this problem). I tried several things (reflashing the rom, flashing the new kernel, etc.) and I just couldn't make it work. I finally had to break down and revert my phone to stock and perform the wire trick. I'm choosing not to admit how long this entire process took me to perform (clearly I'm out of practice). ;)

Or you can put in airplane mode reboot your phone turn airplane mode off and then check and see if it restarts sometimes that happens to me and when I do that all is good....

Update on flashing GB ROM's with 2.89 firmware

Based on the results of my earlier testing, it appears that you can restore a nandroid of a GB ROM flashed with 2.17 firmware and boot it using hboot 1.58 and the rest of the new firmware, but fresh installs of 2.17 based GB ROM's result in boot loops.

I just tested reverting back to the ENG 1.04 bootloader and flashed MeanROM GB 4.3 and it worked. I could flash, boot and run 4.3 using the ENG bootloader with the rest of the new (2.89) firmware installed, but it wouldn't boot if I reinstalled the 1.58 bootloader. I didn't test it, but suspect I would get the same results using the 1.4 and 1.5 bootloaders.

This means that if you you need to flash a GB ROM based on the 2.17 build, a temporary install of one of the older bootloaders should work to flash and run that ROM even with the rest of the new firmware installed. The bootloaders I used for my testing are attached to this post.

A tip for switching bootloaders is to restore or flash a ROM that you know will boot with either bootloader, such as MeanROM ICS with the VM leak kernel, before you flash the new bootloader. If you can't boot the installed ROM after flashing a different bootloader you will have to delete the PG86IMG.zip file in the root of the SD card on another device since there will be no way to boot directly into recovery after the new bootloader is flashed.

RamJet,

Do you have just the Hboot 1.50 available somewhere to flash/test? Here's what I've gathered up so far from posts, but would like a 2nd set of eyes on it. What do you think? Does this sound right? (sent a pm also about 3.0.4 kernel).

From my post: Pros/Cons to Unlocked vs S-Off & Hboot Background Info:

Hboots:____________________Differences:

1.04.xxxx ? (Eng Hboot) = Extended functions .... Appear to be incompatible with newer 2.89 based kernels

1.30 (Stock Hboot with 1.07.651.1 Gb) .............. Appear to be incompatible with newer 2.89 based kernels

1.40 (Stock Hboot with 1.13.651.7 Gb) .............. Appear to be incompatible with newer 2.89 based kernels

1.40.1100 (incl. w/Revolutionary S-Off) ................. Appear to be incompatible with newer 2.89 based kernels

1.50 (Stock Hboot with 2.17.651.5 Gb) ........ 2.89 based kernels status unknown

1.50.5050 (incl. w/Jbear for GB S-Off) .................. May be compatible with newer 2.89 based kernels & prior fw/kernels (some reports)

1.57.5757 (incl. w/Jbear for ICS S-Off) ................. May be compatible with newer 2.89 based kernels & prior fw/kernels (some reports)

1.58 (Stock Hboot with 2.89.651.2 ICS) ............. Compatible with newer 2.89 based kernels (& Vm ICS Leak), not GB based (some reports)

.................................................. .............................edit: Some boot issues with AOSP/AOKP roms & kernels reported (ie CM9)
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Your matrix looks right so far based on what I know at this point. I'm doing some testing for max right now with the 3.0.4 kernel but I've attached the bootloaders that still need to be tested with the 2.89 kernel and firmware if you or anyone else wants to check them. I know some people have said that the Jbear bootloaders (1.50.5050 and 1.57.5757) work with the rest of the 2.89 stuff but I haven't tested that myself.

Hs420, that happened to me. I booted into recovery, wiped dalvik and cache, re installed the kernel, wiped dalvik and cache, rebooted and I've been fine since.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Sounds like your kernel isn't getting flashed properly. If you are S-ON are you using 4EXT recovery with S-ON option enabled in the app settings or the tools menu of the recovery? The S-ON (SmartFlash) option won't work unless you have a bootable kernel installed already so you may need to start recovery using fastboot from your PC and reflash the ROM with S-ON disabled.

[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
No need unless you want to run the 2.89 stock kernel. Mike baked the VM leak stock kernel into MeanROM ICS 2.5 and 2.6 which doesn't require the new firmware and the Athx kernel is based on Qualcomm source which works without the new firmware as well.

As long as you run the VM leak stock kernel that's baked in it's pretty easy moving to MeanROM ICS 2.5 or 2.6. Using the stock kernel from the Sprint 2.89 official ICS release requires the firmware upgrade, and future versions of other ICS ROM's for the E3D probably will as well.

It's not your firmware, it's the ROM base. Since the ROM base is 2.89, you'll have to wait our use a different ROM.
