Take out your sdcard and see if you can boot into recovery, taking a shot in the dark but could be a corrupt sdcard

(Don't ask me for help as I couldn't care if your phone explodes, eh! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
try "fastboot boot recovery.img" in cmd. but the real problem is that running RUU didnt work. are you sure it flashed completely? I'd say run it again
[HTC EVO 3D] gianborrello:
Sorry, friends, I tried both methods without success...always that bootloop after... Even trying fastboot boot recovery.img... I can't get into recovery menu. Only hboot menu... Maybe I could try once again to flash the RUU.exe after relocking bootloader...any better ideas than mine? I'm starting to lose hope...
[HTC EVO 3D] mf76130:
Hi,

I have nearly the same issue.

i played to much with reroot and unroot.

Now my evo gsm austria is:

shooter_u pvt shp s-off rl

hboot 1.53.0007

radio 10.13.9020.08_2m

eMMC boot

I can access recovery, but it doesn't matter which rom i flash i always have the bootloop. I even flashed different recoveries and the extracted boot,img from the roms (via fastboot). But i'm stuck in the Bootloop.

When i try to flash an RUU as PG86IMG i get the message CID incorrect.

CID is VODAP120

I hope someone has the answer.

thanx michael

I changed my CID now:

fastboot oem writecid HTC__01

moved a non branded pg86img to the root of my sdcard and it ran through

now my phone is back to hboot 1.49.0007

looks good at the moment

i want to get back to full stock, to get original ICS

but i can't get updates, they always fail during the installation . even when i was locked and s-on

It runs again - back to life
[HTC EVO 3D] mf76130:
So what did i do next.

The official OTA Update to ICS came down!

But wouldn't install

So i extracted the firmware.zip moved to PG86IMG.zip and flashed over the bootloader.(just 24MB - Boot,Bootloader)

It installed rebooted and at the moment a very long black screen, lets see how long

---------- Post added at 06:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:27 AM ----------

No bootloop, but nothing else too

Next step

extract the rom.zip from "RUU_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.28.401.1_Radio_11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M_release_262714_signed"

moved as PG86IMG.zip to root of SDCARD

and flashing over Bootloader

lets wait

---------- Post added at 06:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:45 AM ----------

YEAH

Android 4.0.3

Sense 3.6

Software

3.28.401.1

And its running

Still S-OFF and unlocked

with H-BOOT 1.53.0007

Radio 11.25.304.06_M

I hope the 12hrs i invested the last 3 days will repay
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
Extract the rom zip file and rename it to PG86IMG.zip , put in root of sdcard and flash in bootloader.

I'm running out of ideas here. Running an RUU is a last failsafe method of restoring your phone to stock but that isnt working for you. Maybe try another ruu(the one which was on your phone when you purchased it)
[HTC EVO 3D] Raychov:
I'm having some issues aswell.

I flashed 4ext because some roms would get stuck on the htc logo screen for half an hour..

Flashed the NonSense rom, worked fine, made a backup of it.

Then i wanted to test Viper's latest rom with sense 4.0, flashed it with 4ext, successful.

I found NonSense better in my opinion so i went to backup, and restored the ROM. After that i couldn't get any further than the htc logo screen.

I switched to clockwork, twrp but no result. I tried even other ROMs but i still can't get pass that cursed splash screen.

And yes, i deleted cache and dalvik etc..

The only thing i haven't tried is getting the stock rom and flashing it to see if it works.

Also, would some of you be kind enough to give me the recovery.img of the latest version of 4ext? I can't find it anywhere, not even on my sd card.

Thanks, looking forward to your answers.
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
my advice would be to do a clean install of nonsense rom. Wipe data+factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, install rom.

btw are you s-off or s-on? be sure to turn on smart flash in case you're s-on.

I've attached 4EXT RC5
[HTC EVO 3D] gianborrello:
Alredy tried also this method... always that bootloop...

I'm starting to lose my hopes.
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
flash boot.img in fastboot again and try
[HTC EVO 3D] gianborrello:
I tried... I'm s-on and hboot relocked.

That's what I get:

C:\Android>fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img

sending 'boot' (4310 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.883s]

writing 'boot'...

(bootloader) signature checking...

FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)

finished. total time: 1.466s

Damnit!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
you need to unlock bootloader again before flashing boot.img or recovery
[HTC EVO 3D] gianborrello:
done...unlocked, flashed boot_signed.img and tried to boot. Always bootloop.

Then flashed recovery_signed.img and tried to boot... again that f***ed bootloop. Starting to hate HTC splash screen!!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
do you still get the "FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)" error? If so theres something wrong here. And do flash a custom recovery like 4EXT. it should then be recovery.img not the signed one
[HTC EVO 3D] gianborrello:
No.. procedure succeeds without any issues.

Now I flashed back 4ext recovery..

Then reboot and ta-dah!!!! Again and again that f***ed bootloop!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
so let me get this straight, you cant boot into recovery, cant boot rom, running RUU does nothing.

from what i can figure out this must be a hardware issue then. had a similar issue with a friends SGS2 and it turned out he had a burnt IC. had to send it for repairs. everything seemed to flash correctly but it kept bootlooping
[HTC EVO 3D] gianborrello:
Yes my friend, I was start figuring the same thing...

When I try to select recovery in the boot menu and the bootloop starts, it becomes very hot...

maybe it's something hardware..

neither adb can connect to the device (device list empty when I run adb devices); on the other hand fastboot seems to work...

I'm contacting HTC for a repair... I only hope they are not asking for mad prices for this repair...

Thank you very much anyway... You've all have been very kind... and sorry for my poor English, I am Italian...
[HTC EVO 3D] Raychov:
Hm, no mate, it didn't work. I got stuck in bootloop again. Cleaned absolutely everything, flashed NonSense rom and then the backup i had but neither of them seem to pass the logo screen.
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
first things first. s-on or s-off? which hboot? if you are on 1.49 hboot then did you update firmware?

Try another rom and see if it boots
[HTC EVO 3D] Raychov:
S-on, hboot 1.53.
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
you're s-on which means you have to turn on smartflash in 4EXT (or manually flash boot.img in fastboot)

you hboot will probably not allow you to run Viper3D. I suggest you get s-off and downgrade hboot to 1.49

use this guide>>> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1743466
[HTC EVO 3D] Raychov:
Ok, so i found a solution to this problem. For some reason the recoveries wouldn't install the boot.img properly, so i extracted it to my pc and went to command promt and typed all the commands.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] tony_roma:
Hello everyone!

I just bought LG P880, and that's my first android phone.

Tried to find an answer on this forum but no luck...

I think that you can help me...

My (noob) question is:

How can I put the WHOLE wallpaper on screen?!?

I successfully transfer file from PC to mobile, and when I want to set it as a wallpaper I have to "cut" it...i don't want to cut it I want the wholw picture on my screen!!!! The resolution of the picture is 720x1280, so that can't be the problem...

Only wallpapers that are original on phone can be full size on screen?!?

I hope that you understrand what I want, and for you all it's probably a noob question, but please help...

tony
[LG Optimus 4X HD] SimonTS:
The problem is the resolution. A wallpaper needs to be twice as wide as the screen - that way the wallpaper can scroll correctly when you move homepages. Therefore you need to make sure your wallpaper is 1440x1280. If you only every want a single homescreen then take your 720x1280 wallpaper and add 360 pixels of junk on each side so it is the right size.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] tony_roma:
ha! a litlle bit of math and problem solved :)

thank you very much...

I thought that there is a way by some option on the phone that I can't see :)

anyway, thank you very much for quick answer :good:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] babymatteo:
Or you can just use an app called PicSpeed Wallpaper. It lets you set any wallpapers at their original size.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] tony_roma:
:good::good::good:

Thank you. Great app!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] giovandrea:
Can you link the apps in Gplay, pls? I cannot find it... :(
[LG Optimus 4X HD] tony_roma:
sorry mate, but i'm a new player here :) , so I can't put outside links...

but, go to Play Store, search: "picspeed" and select "PicSpeed HD Wallpapers 300,000", install it and that's it!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itzikd1:
im on slim 3,1 with semaphore 2.6 and i wana update to 2.6.5s will i lose any data? and what is the process of updating a kernel? (do i need to wipe data or something like that?)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Donovan662:
No u will not loose data. Just flash via recovery, no need for wiping
[HTC EVO 3D] phlashb4k:
I had followed this video ht tp://w ww.youtub e.com /watch?v=hQtUxEL8pd8 and did everything correctly. When I go to boot my phone up it shows the blue android boot animation then the green HTC animation then restarts.

Hboot 1.57

Somehow my recovery got deleted.

Clockworkmod recovery is installed.

I just don't know what to do :(

Is there a way I can just undo everything and go back to the stock rom?

Edit: Tried ViperROM and it's doing the exact same thing.
[HTC EVO 3D] scottypeterson:
Make sure you are wiping everything except sdcard and then flash the rom. Maybe even try changing recoveries to 4ext.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
I assume you are s-off correct? I suggest going with Scotty's idea and switching to 4ext recovery. Cwm has been know to cause issues with the evo 3d. I'm also assuming that you mean hboot 1.58 not 1.57. FYI you can use any hboot with those ROMs. Just can't use the stock 2.89 kernel with any other hboot but 1.58. You also havnt specified whether or not your using the stock kernels that come with the ROM.

The meanrom by default flashes the VM kernel so if your on hboot 1.58. You have to flash the stock 2.89 kernel in the meanrom folder that's generated after you flash meanrom.

As for viperom you shouldnt have any problem flashing it considering that its compatible with any hboot. Which brings me back to my main point. Flash 4ext recovery and make sure you do a full wipe. That includes data factory wipe, cache and dalvik wipe and wipe all partitions except sdcard.

There's no reason give up when you run into a snag. There's usually a solution to every problem and you did the right thing by posting your question here. There's a ton of possibilities on here to do with your phone. Just read, research, ask questions if you are unsure of something.
[HTC EVO 3D] phlashb4k:
I'm S-on, will it matter? And also I do mean 1.57. And one more thing. Does it matter if I boot up into a recovery using the command prompt? Also I'm not sure what kernel it is. I guess the one that's in the zip folder? Also sorry for slow responses I've been working days. Any chance you'll be on tomorrow around 7pm central?

Update: I reformatted everything and tried reinstalling Viperrom through CWM but no dice still boots up and resets. Got 4ext installed. Working from there.

Update: 4EXT is the best recovery I've ever seen and I'm never using CWM again.

Update: I installed VIperROM through 4ext and it's still restarting itself.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Do you have smart flash enabled in 4ext recovery? Its under tools settings.
[HTC EVO 3D] phlashb4k:
No I do not. Just got off work and I'm doing it now. I don't need to have root for a custom rom do I? Also i youtubed bootloop to see if it is really what's wrong and I came up with this video. ht tp ://www .y outube.co m/watch?v=OKXTD1-fqbc and my phones doing more than that. It's booting up all the way then once the screen and dock begins to load it restarts.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
OK go ahead and turn it on. This will enable you to flash kernels inside recovery having s-on. No you don't have to root to flash a custom ROM. However every ROM has superuser baked into them so flashing one will automatically give you root.

I just want to add that s-on users do not have access to the boot partition which is where your kernel sits. Thats the cause of your bootlooping, before your recovery wasn't flashing any kernel with the ROM. Now with 4ext and smart flash its possible.
[HTC EVO 3D] phlashb4k:
How do I flash a kernel? I'm not really sure what one is, I just know it's really important.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Think of a kernel as a airplane tower that guides the direction of how the android system operates. It controls touch screen, it contains the drivers that make your keyboard work, WiFi, 4g, camera etc.. it is also responsible for taking over android run time after hboot finishes initiating everything to get android up and running. Someone correct me if my information is incorrect please lol. For now, stick with 4ext recovery and enable smart flash under tools settings. Everything should be good after that. I would highly recommend gaining s-off to make everything easier.

If your interested just ask and I'm sure one of us will be glad to help you.:)

Edit: Its real easy to flash a kernel once smartflash is enabled. A kernel always comes with every ROM or else it wouldn't be able to boot up. As I have stated before in my previous post about s-on users and the limitations.
[HTC EVO 3D] phlashb4k:
I formatted everything using 4ext and installed a rom i also flashed the boot img just incase and it still restarted. :(

Here's the steps I took.

1. Format everything.

2. Download the.zip file and copy to SD card.

3. Load the recovery and enable smartflash.

4. Installed the rom.

5. Flashed the boot.img

6. Also tried without flashing the boot img.

And just to clarify. I'm installing ViperROM. And I only need the .zip file, correct?
[HTC EVO 3D] phlashb4k:
I ended up using RUU to fix it and go back to the stock rom/ect, Then locked the bootloader unlocked it and flashed superuser and rooted it then got s-off using the wire trick. But after I rebooted it keeps taking me back to the jbear bootup logo and when I try to flash a recovery it doesn't load I just get the htc logo then jbear logo then it restarts. I followed this guide.htt p://w ww.yo utube.co m/ watch?v =tRj47iFQvbE I found here on the xda forums.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Do you have the ics ruu correct? Boot back into bootloader and reflash the ruu. Do not unlock your bootloader again. Its not necessary anymore now that you have s-off.
[HTC EVO 3D] phlashb4k:
Booted up perfectly :). So now I'm ready to flash any cdma rom with no problems? Do you know if there's a cdma rom that comes with, beats, adobe flash, and extras?

When I tried to flash a recovery this happened.

C:\android-sdk\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery 4ext.img

sending 'recovery' (3738 KB)...

OKAY [ 1.018s]

writing 'recovery'...

FAILED (remote: not allowed)

finished. total time: 1.031s

Also my bootloader is saying *** locked ***
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Your s-off. If you have root you can flash your recovery from 4ext updater or use flash GUI image from Google play. If no root, you will need to take your recovery and Rename it to PG86IMG, place it on root of sdcard and boot into bootloader. Let the phone pick up the recovery update and flash it. Power up your phone and take the file off the root of your card. Then power back down into bootloader and click on recovery. Let me know if it works.
[HTC EVO 3D] phlashb4k:
I downloaded root checker and apparently I'm not root anymore. Yes I'm VM. I'm trying to rename the recovery and update it using the SD card now.
[HTC EVO 3D] phlashb4k:
I tried changing the name and it won't detect it. Do I rename the img file or use a zip file? For the RUU I used the pc program to update it and the recovery I use fastboot in the cmd prompt. How do I flash a different hboot? Would I be able to use fastboot for the recovery if i reunlocked the boot loader?
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
My bad. Yes, get the zip file version. As for hboot, same way your trying to flash the recovery.
[HTC EVO 3D] phlashb4k:
When I tried to update it said Invalid model ID update failed. For the PG86IMG file.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
OK, get latest twrp recovery zip and do the same thing you tried with 4ext. I know, its a pain in the ass. I had to go through the same thing when I got my phone s-off with wire trick. The reason why I'm having you do this this way is because in case you ever need to have your phone serviced. They will check to see if you unlocked your bootloader or relocked it. Your bootloader is in "locked" state thus, they cannot deny you service regardless of s-on or s-off.
[HTC EVO 3D] phlashb4k:
I just ended up unlocking the boot loader again and installing the recovery that way. Then saw this.. oh well lol. I really do appreciate the help. :). I'm going to try to install viperrom again, and double backup this time! I'll let you know how it goes.
[HTC EVO 3D] phlashb4k:
Sigh* It restarted again. Even with s-off. Do you think I should flash a different boot loader like you said before? An how would I know which one to use.
[HTC EVO 3D] phlashb4k:
OK. I installed hboot 1.4 reflashed the rom. And it's working. Thank you for everthing :).
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
No problem. Please abuse my thank you button if you don't mind:D:p
[HTC EVO 3D] mcerk02:
Sounds like something did not flash right, try and wipe all partitions except sd card and install a back-up or a fresh rom, if that does not work you can install the stock RUU via fastboot and it will put you back to stock, put phone into fastboot usb and run the RUU from computer, It is not letting me upload a file or i would attach the RUU for you
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
It sounds like you didn't read the posts. I already helped him resolve his issues. Thanks for trying to help.

I have to say though that I refer particularly to the audio part of videos,as I consider the volume level in Google Play decent (not really high,but powerful enough)

Anyway I find that with the stock video player and with BS free the volume level of the videos is kinda low even at 100%...not VERY low,but not that great as you would expect from the maximum level of a device (my iPod touch is way louder than this even at about 80%)

No problems with output volume for me on 4.2.1 is louder than my Xperia S, however it does keep popping up with the warning about high listening volumes, my Xperia only warned me once.

I think there is European laws on volume output, I remember on my cowon mp3 player I had to choose China as my country to unlock full output volume as China is unaffected by the European laws, probably all deaf too!
