when you say do a factory reset in recovery mode, do you mean pressing the down vol button and power and home button to get to that feature? if so, whats the diff between the two?

and concerning my other post, i was serious.. thats not your concern, its mine.

jesse, i couldnt agree with you more.. youre completely right! i dont see ANY diff between the 2 either.. i think i'll be going back to ICS.. much better batt life and dialing rules work!

You know that if you on ics base you can still flash jb roms? Try that then report back. Try a tw rom (wicked rom is great) or cm10 (any are great) then see which one is better for you.

wassup chrisram.. i can flash roms as long as i'm rooted. and i plan to be rooted soon, i just dont know when. can you post links to a good couple of roms?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Teo032:
Well he said wicked is good, it's in the dev section. Any aosp roms seems to be fairly comparable to each other. Just different features and tweaks.. I usually run nova and set my animation to "faster than light"
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jjlean:
ICS had zero issues on my phone. I can't say the same about jb. I do like some additional features offered in jb though, such as call blocking.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] xenin:
yeah but if u think about it, you can easily call block within options in ICS.. and you can downbload apps for that too.

You're not the only person having issues with the 4.1.1 OTA release.

Between the battery drain bug, various keyboard issues, numerous people have noticed that the 4.1.1. OTA is slower on their device, with increased lag compared to the 4.0.4 OTA.

Even after multiple factory resets, etc, the performance being reported as rather poor.

My guess would be that Samsung & T-mobile did a poor job optimizing this release after baking in all their crap and that some people are just far more sensitive to lag and input delays than others.

You're probably just better off rooting and installing CM10 or downgrading back to 4.0.4 and waiting for a future update down the line if you absolutely need wifi calling.

Regardless, screw the apologists that insist that nothing is wrong with this release, any OTA update that cuts your effective battery life in half wasn't tested properly and should have never been pushed out to the public.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chrisram88:
Understandable, but who here especially in this site(forum) is running stock jb non rooted? We all are either running custom roms or stock rooted giving us options to optimize battery use and other sorts of things. It's simple to odin back to ICS. If jb isn't cutting it, then it's just not cutting it. I'm happy were I am and that's on jb. One thing to keep in mind with any sort of customization, kernel, rom done to your phone is that it will be trial and error. Some things can work for me and not you or Vice versa. You just gotta play with it man. Be gentle, but show it who's the bawse ! Lol

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] verboten:
My guess is that it is some rouge app that is not optimized for JB that is causing issues, not the rom itself. FYI, I am running stock non rooted and my phone is very fast and smooth and I did not have to turn down or off any animations. And for my battery life, with an average days use, i see more that 18hr of life. Tell me where your source is that this release was not tested properly..oh wait, you can't because you are talking out of your ***.

Yes that is what I mean when I said factory reset in recovery mode. I can't tell you there is a difference, I was just told by a T-mobile rep there was and I take what they tell me with very little regard.

You are right, it's not my concern, so keep your drama out of a public forum then. No where in this thread was he harrasing you.

For about a month I was using FreeGS3 R6 (ICS ROM) and the battery was easily hitting over 16 hours consistently... Haven't had nearly as good of luck with all the JB ROMs I've played with so far >< I do love the JB interface however
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Bitcloud30:
ahh battery life...if your going to root soon *hopefully* i recommend this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=1777472

am on WICKED ROM v1.3 and TRINITY JB A23 KERNEL works for me, battery life with moderate usage: 20hrs - 1day 3hrs..and doc is right about JB it offers more

another combination of ROM n KERNEL is : FROSTY and KTOONSEZ..

and lastly if your going to jellybean use WICKED n TRINITY as your main you wont have any problems at all trust me :D....problems like the performance, battery life, etc. you wont encounter when you have this
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] xenin:
grow up.

i know. ive read on many reports that JB is basically a "downgrade". the only thing i like about JB is the smooth interface.. its not 100%, but its good. but again, they sacrificied batt life for this uneeded effect.

i dont like CM10 so i'll go back to ICS.. its the best rom for battery ive seen. and it functons better. and i agree with these blind apologist followers who know JB sucks but dont have the balls to admit it.

to answer your question, I'm running non-rooted JB. i'll be flashing rooted ICS though.

i thought i had said that i'll be going back to ICS..

no, i'll keep my drama wherever i want to without you or anyone else's approval. . aight! thats my biz not yours. worry about your life and not mine. and in case YOU harass me on my thread, i'll have to report you too.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jklatt747:
My Evo has been completely trashed and I have no clue what to do.

I have hboot 1.19 s-on and I did the HTCdev unlock, and I rooted it and have the latest version TWRP (i think 2.3.something) with SuperSU installed. I tried to flash a ROM that was supposed to be compatible with with I had but i guess not. Everything was going great but I was stuck on the CM boot screen. After about 30 min of it sitting in that screen I figured something was wrong so i reset it and went back into TWRP. Someone told me to download MeanRom and flash that because its kernel and rom would fix everything. Here's where things get weird. I download MeanRom to my computer and mount my phone in TWRP to move the file over to the phone and when i went to factory reset before flashing it it kept saying unable to mount SD card and Internal Storage. I tried to do a restore my phone to an old back up and that wouldnt even work. So I wipe both caches and try to flash MeanRom anyway. i got a failed error and my phone shut off. Now my phone will only go into the Fastboot thing on the white screen and when i try to go into recovery, it just stays on the TWRP loading screen, not even letting me into the recovery program.

Is there anyway to fix this? My best buy insurance has expired because i missed 3 payments since I'm away at school and not working a whole bunch. So my whole smash it to pieces and get a new one solution is no longer an option.

I'm on a mac by the way so is there something I can enter into terminal to fix this? I don't care about losing any files or anything I'll do whatever I have to, to fix this.

Thanks in advance

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrlakadaddy:
Read om4's guide don't panic...hboot 119 s-on you have to flash kernels separately.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] falconoble:
I ran into the same problem. Word for word, really. I use a Mac, too. I went through HTCdev unlock, tried to flash a CM10 nightly and ran into a boot loop. No matter what I did, it was stuck. I couldn't restore to a nandroid backup because internal storage wouldn't mount. Couldn't do anything. All I had access to was bootloader and TWRP recovery.

I don't know the specifics of how this fixed it (I'm nothing close to a developer), but this is what I did to get out of it. You will need access to a Windows machine onto which you can download things.

1) If you still have access to fastboot, unroot your phone to stock. Completely stock.

2) Use DirtyRacun S-OFF (you'll need a Windows computer for this). Go through the whole process.

3) Re-root.

Nothing I tried fixed it until I started fresh. I couldn't tell you how it worked, but if you're desperate you really have nothing to lose but a little bit of time by doing the same thing I did.

Hope you get this figured out.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jklatt747:
How would i unroot if I cant get into SuperSU since i cant boot up my phone? Do I need to do that first or can i just run the RUU without Going into SuperSU and hitting Unroot?

Also what do I need windows for? Getting S-OFF? Or unrooting?

Also thank you! I really hope this work!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Shahal:
Relock your phone from fastboot then run the RUU. Now you're completely stock.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jklatt747:
I'm sorry if this is a stupid question. But how do i re-lock it from fastboot?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sand1303:
U have to use the cmd window on your windows computer. I did it with mine before I ran dirty racun. It is a simple command but u have to be in the right directory ind the cmd line. Go through and look at the dirty racun guide and it tells u how to re-lock word for word I believe.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jklatt747:
Okay so I found a video on how to re-lock my phone in fastboot but when i type the command "fastboot oem lock"

it just says ' <waiting for device >

any suggestions on what to do? It's been stuck like this for about 5 min now.. in the video it took less than a second.

What's funny is that all you had to do with s-on is flash the boot.IMG from the ROM via fastboot, just like the first reply said to.

You're doing more work right now than you needed to.

I realize this is a little late, but if you're still having trouble and you're still s-on, go read om4's guide, or get s-off.

If you want to stick with s-on, you will have to fastboot flash the boot.IMG files from the ROM manually.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jklatt747:
Yeah i couldn't figure out how to do that. I would ask a question on how to do that and i just kept on getting the response of "google it" "look it up on youtube" or look in the forums. and I wasn't ever sure really where to find it because all my searches for it came up useless.

I just did the RUU on my phone and its finally back up and running! What a relief!!!

Now I'm going to try to get DirtyRacun s-off. How do I put a Custom Rom on my phone with S-off?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrlakadaddy:
With s-off you just flash it in twrp..no extra steps
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jklatt747:
I only have windows 7 64bit. So this means i cannot go the dirtyracun route. Is there any other way to get S-OFF?

if not.. How do i fastboot flash the boot.IMG from the ROM manually?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] falconoble:
I wish I'd ran into you when I had the same problem. I wasn't trying to make things more complicated for him, just telling him that when it happened to me, I went back to stock, went with S-OFF, and everything worked fine. At the very least I figured he probably would have just wanted his phone back.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jklatt747:
No. You helped me soooooo much! I was literally about to sell my phone for parts or something because everything went wrong that could go wrong and on top of that I couldn't find anything at all on how to fix it. I just did what you said and my phone is fixed! I want to go s-off now but dirtyracun doesn't support windows 7 with 64 bit, it only supports windows 7 with 32bit which I don't have access to. So i'm trying to find another way that is reliable to go S-OFF. It seems like S-OFF is the way to go and it makes everything easier.

If I cant find out how to go S-OFF with the windows 7 64 bit computer, then I guess i'll go S-on HTCdev unlock again and hopefully figure out how to manually flash the ROM or whatever it is that you do with S-ON.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
Most sense roms come with a kernel installer for people that are S-ON :D and there have been reports of success using Win7 64bit and running DirtyRacun but.... if you run into problems they will not help you :(
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jklatt747:
okay does anybody know on a mac what would I have to do to flash MeanRom to my phone with S-ON and HTCdev unlock?

I'm not sure how to use the kernel installer you're talking about or where to look for it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
It's included in the script just flash it like any other rom it takes a little longer to boot because it's writing the kenel so don't freak out :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dandan2980:
There is an app in the market called Flash Image GUI to use it all you have to do is click on browse in the app search where ever you downloaded your Rom or kernel select it and it will extract and flash the boot.IMG for you. So if you are s on and wanna flash a aosp Rom you can first flash the kernel using the app then it gives you the option to boot directly in to recovery then install as usual wipe system ,data, both caches and flash your Rom that you extracted the kernel from. You can also just flash just a kernel if you want to OC.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jklatt747:
Okay so here's whats happens for me.

When i go bigdaddy's way: I put the MeanRom zip on my phone from my computer (MeanRom v64 or what ever the latest one is) I factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvic chache, and then go to install find the app and swipe to flash.. everything seems fine until i get an error and fail. It also says there is no MD5 file when i do this.

When I go dandan's way: I have the MeanRom zip on my phone (i've tried this with v64 *or whatever the latest one is* and v34) then i go into flash image GUI and go through finding it and everything. Then i get an error right above the Flash Image button saying "zip file must contain only one of the following: recovery.img, zimage, or a type of boot.img!" On my computer I unzipped the file and looked inside and all I see the boot.img and some folders but no recover or zimage so i dont know what it is talking about.

I really dont want to go through the processes of unrooting and relocking my phone again so i want to do this right. Any help from here on out would be greatly appreciated! :D

If someone could give me a step by step to follow or something for putting the Latest version of MeanRom on my phone that would be great!! I think i read somewhere that you have to put on the old version of MeanRom first. If that is so, could you also include how i would go about updating from the old version to the new one?

(If you're going to help me please make sure your method supports the HTC EVO 4G LTE on hBoot 1.19 Software v. 2.13.651.1 71ORD HTCdev Unlocked and Rooted with SuperSU and TWRP. (GooManager, and Flash Image GUI are installed to)

I dont know if this matters but it also says under Kernel Version:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dandan2980:
Use root explorer and extract meanrom move the boot.IMG to an easy location or extract the Rom on your computer and copy the boot.IMG to your sd card and browse to that location and try flashing thru flash image GUI. I had that problem trying to flash the kernel with super lte. Or put your phone into fastboot and flash the boot.img using CMD from your computer. You have to have adb installed on your computer and place the boot.img where ever you have extracted the android sdk for example this is on a window vista open CMD type "cd/" enter

You'll see this

C:>

Then type your location mine is

cd c:/android/tools

Put a space between cd and c:/android/tools

Should get

C:\android\tools>

Make sure the boot.IMG is in the same folder as adb and fastboot

Then type the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" press enter should say some thing about how long it took and the size that was pushed. Then just boot in recovery and flash the rom
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jklatt747:
Yes I have v 2.3.1.0

Where do I find this? Under settings? and should this be turned off for every method of flashing MeanRom?

I'm going to give this process a shot:

"Use root explorer and extract meanrom move the boot.IMG to an easy location or extract the Rom on your computer and copy the boot.IMG to your sd card and browse to that location and try flashing thru flash image GUI." (Is one way better or easier? [using computer vs. root explorer])

I hope it doesn't brick my phone again... :[

before I do this though. Do I need to flash the MeanRom v34 first? Will I face any problems if I just go ahead and Flash MeanRomv65?

If i do need to flash the older version (v34) first? How would I go about Updating to the newest version (v65)?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baknblack:
Once you select a zip to flash it's a check box on the screen you swipe to flash
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jklatt747:
When I use root explorer and extract meanrom move the boot.IMG to an easy location and browse to that location in Flash Imague GUI and click on the boot.IMG It says this:

"Caution: Potential Issue:

This is NOT recommended! By flashing only the boot.img file: boot.img, *WiFi* and other module based drivers could break along with potentially other features UNTIL the proper module(s)/ROM for this kernel is also loaded. Proced at your own risk."

Is this supposed to happen? is my wifi going to break by doing this? am I supposed to do something else before or after I flash the boot.IMG?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Shahal:
It's saying that because you're flashing a boot.img that's not to the ROM you're currently using. As long as you're flashing the correlating ROM next you shouldn't have an issue.
