I used Jalmex method on HBOOT 1.15 S-ON HTC Dev Unlocked and it worked perfectly.

So to modify his to include from start to finish:

If you don't have fastboot setup on your computer. Set up fastboot (under the Access bootloader section).

Download MeanRom zip file. At this point, extract the boot.img file and transfer it to your computer(if the MeanRom.zip isn't on your computer) and save it in the fastboot folder.

Install MeanRom as normal.

At this point when the phone restarts you will get a blank screen. This is because boot.img could not be flashed due to restrictions implemented in the 1.15 HBOOT.

Plug in your phone via USB and reboot into the bootloader.

In a command prompt, navigate to the fastboot folder and use the following command: fastboot flash boot boot.img

Once it has successfully completed enter the following command: fastboot reboot

Your phone will now reboot and from this point on it will behave like a normal install.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Jerz:
Did you rename the zip and try flashing in Bootloader? If the zip is in the correct location (sdcard2 I believe) you should be prompted to install it.

No further messages since the radio upgrade.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] voodamn:
thanks i will give that a try. You are a life saver. So its because of the new base that's why my phone won't bootup and because i'm on S-ON. A good advise is not to install V3.5 on S-ON unlocked correct?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] volk9029:
Did you check md5 sum of hardware zip? You can not flash full firmware in recovery, you need to go in bootloader. Read Captain_Throwback's thread, he explained it really thorough.

HTC EVO LTE UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER WITH S-ON

HBOOT-1.15.0000

How to update to latest firmware and rom. (how i did it and worked)

1.) Download adb.zip (the attached file) & also download meanrom v3.5

2.) Extract adb.zip to C: drive (so folder will be located as C:/adb/)

3.) Pull/drag the boot.img from the MeanROM zip and put it in C:/adb/ (this basically will copy n paste for you)

4.) Reboot into recovery, Once in TWRP recovery, choose “Wipe”. Next Choose “Factory Reset”. Swipe to wipe.

5.) Next, go back to main menu and choose “Install”.Browse your filesystem and find the ROM zip file you copied over earlier and install it.

6.) Once done installing ROM zip file(s), choose “Wipe cache/dalvik” and swipe. ***

7.) Hit the back arrow, go to Roboot, choose into Bootloader

8.) Plug in phone to computer, and your phone should be in bootloader. Once in bootloader, it should show "FASTBOOT USB"

9.) On the computer, run the command prompt, change the directory to C:/adb/ (using the command "cd /adb" without the quotes)

10.) Type in "fastboot flash boot boot.img" without the quotes

11.) You'll see it print out that it is sending the boot.img (you'll also see a vertical bar on the screen of your phone). It then will report that the send was ok a minute or so later. After that, it writes the boot.img, then says ok.

12.) Under Bootloader, scroll down to Reboot and hit power button to restart the phone and let the phone restart and wll finish installing meanrom 3.5 & latest firmware

(***note you can also let the rom install first, let it reboot system after step 6, then once loaded reboot into bootloader and begin from step 8 to flash firmware, but i like to do it all in one nutshell and save some time :D)

How come I can't flash this ROM on my Motorola Razor flip phone. I followed all the instructions in the OP but still can't get it to flash.... ;)

I am S-OFF and I updated the firmware and the radio yesterday. Then I did a dirty flash from 3.4 (Wipe Cache, Delvik Cache, and System) to 3.5 and everything seems to be working great. Battery life is really good so far and the response with HTC Sense is far better then before even when over clocking.

Thanks Mikey!

9. In twrp wipe as normal and flash 3.5

10. Reboot & Profit! :D

You can follow these steps for future releases as well. Hope this helps some of you guys. And don't flash anything but 4x4 rosie until otherwise noted my Mikey!!

So, that's what the 8737 text messages I get when I install a new or updated ROM... I thought that was the case, but wasn't sure. Good to know that I'm not on someone weirdo's text list getting strange codes meant for US Spy's...

This installs the new kernel before you install the new ROM
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mswlogo:
Just FYI for folks that have similar needs.

Google Now still won't handle Voice Dial over Bluetooth.

In Prior ROMs you could disable it by going to Settings->Apps>Google Search and choose disable.

But for some reason it's now Greyed out (I've seen this on some other ROMs as well).

An alternative way to disable it is go into to Systems\Apps find Velet.Apk and Rename it to something like Velvet.apk_off (using Root Explorer or similar)

That will restore Bluetooth Voice Dial using the older method.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
No problem I'm glad you've got it working!

No it won't touch your hboot, it's simply flashing the new kernel for you.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] crzycrkr:
People had mentioned earlier that remapping the recent apps button to be menu doesn't bring up the menu on the home screen. If you remap it to be menu on short tap and recent apps on long press it will bring up the menu on the home screen. Just won't do it the other way around.

Strange problem I ran into with 3.5b1,b2

I did a full wipe.

I had the new firmware installed first.

But as soon as I swiped to unlock on teh first boot I'd get android.process.acore stopped over and over.

Then I updated someone elses brand new phone (just did the S-OFF etc.)

And tried MeanROM 3.5b2 and it ran fine.

The only difference I could figure is what was on my Internal SD Card (and maybe external).

So I erased my Internal SD and then MeanRom ran fine.

Also since I did Erase my Internal SD Card I noticed the relased version (or Betas) does not Install the MeanROM ICS folder (the one with Mods).

If I had not erased it I may not have realized it was not updated.

I don't know if this is something coming, a bug Mikey might not be aware of or I still have an issue with my Internal SD on my phone.

Everything on my phone seems to be working normal.

Sorry if this was mentioned earlier, lots of posts on this thread that I can't keep up with.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cruise350:
This is wrong, do not flash it from the Meanrom folder! Those are the old mods. You have to extract the 4x4 Rosie from the install zip and flash that.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kusanagi-sama:
I found out the problem was: http://www.pocketables.com/2012/06/...s-for-faster-data-on-your-htc-evo-4g-lte.html Worked on the previous base ROM version, and no longer works on the new 2.13 stock firmware. Edit the proxy to zeros, and you can't even update PRL/Profile on 3G, unless WiFi was running. Same with YouTube.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
Some users got 1.15 out out the box, some got replacements and some unknowingly took the OTA.. But those on 1.12 definitely should s-off
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kilokk:
As for the process.acore something just did not wipe properly and was causing the force close due to old cache conflicting with new information ... I think :D

The second problem is a little easier. The MEANROM-ICS folder is by default always on your internal sdCard and only gets updated when Mikey adds new mods to overwrite in the folder. There are no new mods yet because of the new FIRMWARE issue so it is not built into the ROM to update yet. That's why people have been experiencing problems when they've tried to flash OC and button remapping. It based off the old version and not compatible. If you go back and flash an older ROM version the folder will be back and compatible with what you reverted to. :thumbup:

Well, I could of swore Mike said you could flash the 4x4 Stock rosie to fix the widget issue.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cloaker:
Turn your phone off, then hold power and volume down until it goes to your boot loader, hboot version will be there. If you're seriously worried about bricking a $600 phone, I suggest you do not play with it in this manor.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Curb71:
I mean from my phone. In recovery, in the mean rom folder, there are all the flashable zips. I don't even know what rosie means. I just want the camera button to wake the screen and the menu button to be the right soft key and the long press home key to do what it did in 3.1
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] odawg1022:
There is a 4x4 for this rom but its inside the rom .zip you have to extract it manually. Mike said he forgot to make it auto install on sdcard but he said he will get it right on the next release.

quick question: i am currently stock with hboot 1.19, and newest firmware, not rooted yet, but i am contemplating on either using regaw method or using htcdev unlock- can I flash this rom/ is it compatible with my hboot? thx in advance for any info:D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] crzycrkr:
I know many here aren't fans of Facebook, but I'll ask anyway. On 3.5 profile pictures don't seem to be syncing with my people app. Anyone else having this issue?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Socrguru:
You can flash the 4x4 rosie stock from the MEANROM folder. That particular file is installed by the ROM. All the others are old and won't work, though.

If you want to be certain, delete the folder before flashing 3.5. Then you'll know which is the right one.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cloaker:
I think regaw does the same thing as HTC dev, as a matter of fact, regaw uses HTC dev. Yes, you can flash this Rom once you're unlocked with a custom recovery. In order to use the kernel, you'll need dumlock(in twrp custom rec) or flash image GUI, or through fastboot.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] eusthebest:
I am a bit confused. I am S-off and updated from 3.4 to 3.5 via OTA updater and the rom is running flawlessly. Is there something else i need to flash in order to get the new radios and firmware or did i do that already??
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chong67:
I have Hboot 1.12.0000 I am rooted but S-On. Already make a big call to HTC Dev so it is already red flag.

I have not check Panda thing and if it brick, I have to use Ubuntu right?

I dont mind bricking it, its just that how do I recover in friendly Windoz ???

---------- Post added at 05:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 PM ----------

Lets ask some more question. Can someone write a FAQ on this maybe on post 1 or 2? I am forever a noob. :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cloaker:
Not sure how to recover, but it seems pretty safe, a lot of people have used it, just follow the instructions word for word. There is always a risk of permanent bricking, but fairly low I would say if you don't deviate from their instructions.

And yes, panda should work for you if you're on 1.12.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
If you go to the LazyPanda Site it gives you a link to a bootable, ubuntu live cd, so you'd just pop it in your pc and run (Test to make sure it works after you burn it first). To find you hboot, boot to bootloader and it will give you the version there

With a live cd you boot from the disc or install, if you chose to install you can delete it like a windows program.

The process is EASY. Even the unbricker is pretty easy

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cloaker:
Are you s-off?

Edit, should have read the whole post.

If you have s-off, nothing should jeopardize that. As far as updating the baseband, there is a thread in the dev section that has flashable zips. Updating baseband is one of the more risky things, but I think it's worth it for this update.

Thanks for explaing the MeanROM-ICS Folder.

I went through the whole process twice (including new downloads, b1 and b2) on that acore force close thing, including many cache wipe in between.

It was only until I erased my internal SD Card would that problem go away. And that is all I did to fix it. It didn't like something I had on the Internal SD, or the Internal SD itself was corrupt.

I'm just letting others know in case they run into something similar.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] goldgrillshinin:
It seems most people don't use TWRP to its full potential.. If dirty flashes are causing you issues then do a Nandriod of your current Mean Rom, then do a full wipe and fresh install. Reboot and skip all the setup options.. Reboot back into recovery and go to restore and select the backup you just made and uncheck everything but the Data tap and swipe to restore just your data and reboot.. Your back 100% without having to use any other backup method like Titanium or whatever... I fresh install all the time and do this and never have any issues..

So I'm the guy wondering about battery life a few pages back, and I am pleased to say that Chrome was the culprit, and removing it made a huge difference. My battery was on for more than fourteen hours after starting at 85% and it discharged to 22% in that time. Just under three hours of that was screen on time, as well.
