I would just shut the phone off and pull the sd, then put it in your computer and delete it from there. Can't really remember if you can access your sd from the bootloader.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Ragster:
Of course :) I didn't check the MD5 LOL. Epic Fail. I'm about to fastboot and install TWRP, then hopefully download and check the MD5 and reflash ;)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] travisw0204:
You have to remove the sd card from the phone and throw it in your PC
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
I don't know of anyone doing it on a W8 machine but you could do use the Lunix version. Find a friend/family member with W7 32bit machine and get it done. Sorry man, PM me if you need more info (so we don't clutter this already getting cluttered thread) if you can't find what you need in the DirtyRacun thread.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] njfoses:
Dont use the one that includes hboot. Never update your hboot, no reason to.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] travisw0204:
I'm S-OFF and on MeanRom 6.5.2. I downloaded the first file and flashed via bootloader. It took all of about a minute and rebooted without issues.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] saco274:
Cant turn off? stays in the CM boot loop. Any other suggestions.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DNarsingh:
Get back into the bootloader and you can power off from there.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] saco274:
im in the bootloader, or hboot (white screen) only option is to update? can't get to the options where it lets me power down..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DNarsingh:
Can't you choose not to update? Sorry, but I haven't updated through hboot in a long time, usually just use fastboot.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tech7:
i downloaded the first one and i rename it and put it on root of sd card and i went to bootloader and it all fail and i also re download it and same issue
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] saco274:
I did but it just give me 1 option and that is to reboot.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] funcrusher:
Type out exactly what you renamed it to.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xHausx:
Unfortunately there's no way to remove the stock kernel and maintain the integrity of HTC's signature, so anyone using the full zip will need to reflash their kernel, recovery and possibly(if possible) bootloader.

You can hold down power for ten seconds and it will turn off the phone. Then hold volume down while turning it back on and it will bring up the bootloader.

You'll need to remove your sdcard while the phone is off
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] saco274:
I held it down for ten secs and all it does is reboot and stay in a CM bootloop. when I get into the bootloader it just goes straight into hboot and only option is to start update. I already updated so I saying no but all it does is reboot hence I back in the CB bootloop
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tech7:
I had to download it with my phone and rename it there and it work
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] digiblur:
Really glad to see everything packaged together and not just a modem file by itself. On any LTE device you should never ever just flash the modem without the firmware pieces that go with it. I'm not talking about SBOOT or Recovery. I'm talking about the PRI and other stuff outside of the modem that affect signal, LTE, etc.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] funcrusher:
Good to hear.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DNarsingh:
Well I wouldn't advice pulling the sd with the phone on. You could just wait for the phone to die then pull the sd. Other than that, I have run out of ideas, someone else will have to step in.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
Step 1 - remove your sd card

Step 2 - Hold power for ten sec

Step 3 - When the screen goes black, lift power button finger, press and hold down volume button AND press and hold power button

This will put you back into the bootload BUT won't make you update. Bootloader sees that update file on the root of the card so that is why it keeps saying update.

Step 4 - Once in bootloader, go into recovery

Step 5 - Flash CM kernel (that is hopefully on your internal SD

Step 5a - If the kernel is not there, use a sd adapter of some kind (and your actual computer) and delete the JB firmware bits from the root of your sd card, get the CM kernel on the card and then go back to step 5 and profit.

NOTE: The "locked" banner on your bootloader screen means absolutely nothing as long as you are s-off so ignore it our you can flash the appropriate older Hboot from LazyPanda or Dirty Racun.

NOTE: If you are worried about pulling the SD card with the phone on (I have done plenty of times without issue BUT IF YOU LOSE SOMETHING, DON'T BLAME ME) just pull it when the screen goes black as stated in step 3.

Thanks for this.

Also, voted 5 stars since we have a troll downrating in this section.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xHausx:
Try plugging it into a charger or usb while resetting it. It should stop and start charging instead of automatically rebooting.

If at all possible make sure the phone is off when you pull the sd card, but if you can't just try to do it when you don't think anything could be writing to it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dragon042:
Thank you!

Running 12/04 build of CM10. Flashed the first zip of the 3 through the bootloader.

Rebooted, everything is fine.

On the About Phone page, it says my baseband is: 1.12.11.1119

Thanks so much!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xHausx:
I've been noticing that, these new QC chipsets seem to be a lot more finicky when it comes to mismatched firmware. The QSD8K the old Evo used didn't seem to care at all where as now you'll end up in download mode if you're not careful with.

Voted on yours also. Seems someone's either upset with me or maybe just jealous that we're getting a sweet JB update for our phones. :D

Great job with getting that ROM fixed up so quickly, for how big it is it can definitely be a pain to work with sometimes.

I just flashed the second zip and now my phone wont boot. Any ideas what I did wrong. I renamed the file and put it on my sd card and rebooted to bootloader. It asked if I wanted to update and I did, then it ask to reboot, then it goes to the white htc screen and then nothing
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] enyce9:
I am s-off and want to flash viperboys stock Rom . Should I flash the new kernel aswell?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] -viperboy-:
Kernel is included with both mine and xHausx's ROM.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] digiblur:
Yep, and the people that flashed just the modem last time really should go back and get the pieces they missed before this one. Just a hodge podge of half updates is a recipe for disaster and issues with signals you really don't need on this phone as it has enough signal issues by itself.

Next time you swap the motor on the car, make sure you get all the bolts to the motor mounts not just half of them. ;)

So I got the update and stock rom and it looks the same settings change a bit but sence just looks the same nothing major difference it does run smoothly
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xHausx:
You'll need to use it with a Jelly Bean Sense ROM. Flashing a JB kernel on an ICS ROM will probably leave you in a bootloop.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] devgrp:
Got it. I thought I could flash the kernel then the rom

Thanks

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tekno4ever:
I agree with njfoses and digiblurs post a couple of pages back concerning the advantages of flashing the full firmware over just the radio/modem on LTE devices. my question is, how might we flash the full firmware without the updated hboot?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dustwun77:
I am on that rom/version as well. Glad to hear you had no trouble. Have you seen any improvement in signal strength or anything?

I don't have LTE in my area but I am wondering if this will help the connection issue people have reported?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dandan2980:
I am gonna flash the stock ROM than update thru hboot. What zip would be the best to get all the bits and pieces. Does zip one include everything needed to update radios, PRI version. Or should I go with zip two I just want this to go smoothly.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] yotie:
NOOBS.......

#1 PJ75IMG - No kernel, hBoot or recovery........IS THE "FIRMWARE" hince in the first post "FIRMWARE DOWNLOADS" with the new OTA JELLY BEAN "Radios".......

#2 PJ75IMG - Stock Kerne.....IS the "stock" kernel only...FROM THE NEW JELLY BEAN "OTA" no need to download and flash if your already on a jelly bean rom,,un less you want to,,,,or this is good for developer's who want to create a custom kernel....

#3 PJ75IMG - Complete Firmware zip with hBoot ,,,is the whole Jelly bean update new "radios" firmweare" kernel" hoboot"..

this is good if you want to go to "out of the box stock rom and all jelly bean ect,,,loosing your "recovery" and locking bootloader with new boot loader with no s-off exploit.........

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Ragster:

Edit: Got "Failed: Remote not allowed" Time to Google thissssss! lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xHausx:
Nope, once you have s-off the only way I know of to lose it is manually turning it on through fastboot.

Edit: Remote not allowed is because you don't have an engineering hboot. Use 'fastboot oem rebootRUU' before attempting to flash it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] yotie:
woulnd you loose s-off by doing a full firmware and updating the hboot ?????

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] -viperboy-:
How long did you give it? It sits there a while.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xHausx:
Do you still have adb access? I'm assuming you're S-OFF so it shouldn't have had any trouble writing the kernel
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wwjoshdew:
Maybe it was the -rf setting when you do a factory reset. I'll try resetting to defaults in twrp.

Ha.... I just wiped and installed it again, and it worked fine!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
NO. We can't lose S-Off without manually turning the security setting back on On manually. We can lose "root" and we can overwrite our recovery and hboot but being s-off affords us the ability to downgrade the hboot if we want and of course, flash another recovery. The "locked" banner that comes with the new hboot means absolutely nothing to us s-off peeps.

Just remember, NEVER EVER EVER try to downgrade the firmware (ie Radios) because its a one way ticket to brick city.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Ragster:
So the TAMPERED LOCKED is meaning less for me because right under it, it says S-OFF?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gianmarco00:
Sorry for noob question, but for those still on an ICS ROM, what is the benefit of updating the firmware? Is there a significant (or any) improvement in performance of the phone?

Being on MeanROM, I was just going to wait until things get sorted, but I'm curious if there's any advantage to upgrading the firmware now.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xHausx:
yessir, S-OFF trumps the bootloader lock so you can safely ignore it
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DtownJeff:
So far everything has worked well. I did set twrp back to defaults. The menu remap button works...just not on the home screen. The new kb is nice. I put the cursor keys back. There are a lot of people complaining about this (and vipers) update. I really like it so far. Coming from Roms like viper 4g and super LTE it is hard to give stock a fair shake. About to make first call to check prox.

Thanks for getting this so quicky to us.

Update: no proximity issues here.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
Yup yup! You can actually leave it if it doesn't bother you OR you can flash one of the older hboots from DirtyRacun or what I'd do is flash the older 1.19 hboots that Regaw did that removes that hideous red text on boot up.

Anyone in here, can you confirm if on first bootup you get the Wiper app FC? It's harmless and doesn't matter BUT if the rom here does it, just like Viperboy's, then I'll just flash his that I already have. If it doesn't, I'll grab it from here.

Thanks

Usually won't hurt and if it will help is probably still out to the jury. My advise, just stay put until Mikey puts out a JB rom and then update the firmware. If you are going to just flash the new JB stock rom and stay on it, the update the firmware and rom and be happy. I doubt its going to hurt anything but its just cleaner to run the firmware built for the base you are on.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] falconoble:
Okay, so that said, is there any real benefit to flashing the full firmware?

I'm asking because I'm S-OFF and the option is obviously available to me and from what I've read it's not going to do me any perceivable harm.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xHausx:
Shouldn't be any FCs here but let me know if you find any. The wiper issue is caused by a missing symlink that I think he fixed in his new version.

The first one without the hboot should be good. They're both exactly the same except with that one you don't have to reinstall your recovery & hboot afterward.

It depends on mean rom and what all was changed from stock. Your best bet to ensure it's not buggy is to do a clean install and restore your installed apps (no system apps) with titanium backup.

I have tried to understand this better by reading this thread but still have some questions. If I'm unlocked and S-off what is the safest way for me to flash. I wouldn't mind to be on the newest bootloader and radio.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottborasjr:
You don't want the new bootloader the way I understand it but the new radio's could be good
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xHausx:
Your best bet is the ROM and the first firmware zips. That's pretty much the equivalent of taking the OTA just with root.

i thought it might and meant to do a back up prior to trying but rushed it ... i am so glad i finally got S-off last night

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mainstang:
Wipe the usual flash ROM then first firmware?

Also if my understanding is correct being on mean ROM if have a modified kernel currently. Would I still be good without flashing a stock kernel image?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] flyhighx:
There has been a lot of talk about making sure you're updating this firmware over the latest firmware and not updating it over "bits and pieces" of previous updates. As I understand it, LTE makes things more finicky as well as the chips being used in our phones.

1) Can someone post what versions of firmware (Baseband, PRI, PRL, anything else relative) we SHOULD HAVE been on before we update?

2) Can someone post what versions of firmware (Baseband, PRI, PRL, anything else relative) we should be on NOW after this update?

3) I was told once that updating PRL via OTA is in fact a safe OTA to accept for rooted users. Will that still hold true when eventually a new PRL comes out? Can we OTA that eventual PRL over this firmware we're talking about here?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] david279:
The first package, the one without the recovery, hboot and kernel is safe for anyone to flash in fastboot. Updating prl is safe on any firmware and doesn't have anything to do with the packages.
