First of all I did read the thread and always read the thread, been on here almost a yr and a half and you people have barely heard a word from me Jesus. I'm talking about the unsecured boot.img it fails. Thought I put that in my post but didn't sorry. There was also more to the post too.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Vancer:
Got the new bootloader and recovery flashed but when I try to flash the rom it's giving me unable to mount /system ??
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] markb629:
Wasn't the point of saying what I said. Not a badass at all but will stick up for myself when unnecessarily snapped at. Thanks for the help....open helpful community my ass....simple question gets snapped at and ridiculed or the actual point ignored.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] utnick:
Yes, sir. I re-flashed the ROM but no joy.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
I'm getting an assert failure when trying to flash the ROM. It should definitely be able to mount /system, unless you have the wrong HBOOT.

Looks like the new recovery isn't ready for primetime. Better put the old one that mounts /data/media wrong back up :rolleyes:.

hboot seems to have went fine... I'm on 2.10.000 with radio 1.13.11.1105 and says tampered and locked

Anyone else having data connectivity issues on the deodexed version?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] yota265:
Looks like it's time to break out the old EVO LTE out of hibernation and give this a whirl before I try on my daily driver. If I brick it no harm no foul.

Can't wait to get home tonight.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nelsonTituaAa:
HAHAHA, i am such an idiot.. i kept renaming the firmware .zip :o :D :p :silly: i got it now.. :dumbass:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jeanxx:
Wait until Sin finishes the kinks in the sense 5.5 version and all problems should be solved. He's working on the android 4.3 w/ sense 5.5 and including all fixes and adding mods. Patience is a virtue, perfection comes in time! :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
#blameSprint

Also, talked to Dees_Troy in #twrp and found out what's up with the assert fail. I'm rebuilding with a few patches and hopefully that'll take care of it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hondafreak513:
oh boy I just seen the post about twrp being bad just after I flashed it and now im stuck in twrp with no os installed and stuck..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ADM818:
Switch to cdma or flicker connection optimizer on and off, that's what I did and all of my problems went away.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chemjb:
I don't know why peole are getting tamper with locked status.

I did the firmware update with

Fastboot oem rebootRUU

Fastboot flash zip "captainfirmware.zip"

fastboot erase cache

fastboot reboot-bootloader
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
No, you can't do that. However the way signal reads on the new update is different than previous updates. If you're still able to use your phone with no issues, it's likely just a cosmetic difference.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] iskyi:
Thanks for all your help. I was able to figure out what I was doing wrong. I feel like an idiot lol. I forgot to reference the folder in the command like to where I put the token. When I was typing the unlock command it was looking for the file in "My document" folder lol.

Now I am finally on the latest and last build. Thanks!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Skid71:
After experiencing some various issues, I'm going to run the .4 RUU. Are the following steps the correct way to run a RUU?

Connect Evo via USB to PC (Windows 7)

Boot into bootloader mode

Double-click RUU

Any help is appreciated.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
You actually don't have to boot into bootloader, but I usually like to, as it saves the RUU from having to do it, and I can confirm that the USB connection is working properly.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Skid71:
I haven't booted to the ROM after running the RUU.

Trying HTCDev to unlock bootloader, but when trying to change directories with this command: cd \Android, it says there is no directory with that name. I am literally stuck here. I have downloaded the binaries, but I'm stuck at Step #5 on the HTCDev site. Any experienced users care to help an Evo owner out?

Thank you for the response regarding RUU'ing Cap.

Edit: never mind, I finally figured it out and now have S-Off and an unlocked bootloader.

Capt'n your dope fam!!!

Sup capt. I've been gone awhile... Since new partition release...

When they first came out I asked if we could run Kit.kat.4.4 with the new partitions...

I've searched this thread for kitkat 4.4 with no luck...

But I noticed some new threads with kitkat 4.4 (new partitions)...

Is this the kitkat ROM we use with the new partitions?

Basically fam, I have the kushDecks kitkat for old firm and old partitions...

With multiple user support( I have 2 gaming accounts one device)

And basically wanted to update my phone, yet want new partitions and kitkat with *multi user support*

Can u help me out with this?

If I didn't completely loose my android brain while I've been away...

I believe I can update now with new partitions and flash a new kitkat 4.4(new partitions) ROM and still have multi user support?

Any help would be highly appreciated... And sorry if this question is a duck lol

Just don't want to screw my gaming accounts lol

Capt. Any links insight would be appreciated
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MassStash:
Well this is a stock sense rom... Think you kno that, but wouldn't see why you couldn't flash to the new partition setup, flash current aosp rom for new partition setup. But I think you may need a mod for multi user on them cuz I don't think it's stock with the phone UI, just tablet.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] aigoo:
Which TWRP should i be installing? ive tried 2.7.1.0b and 2.7.0.8 and i keep getting the "wrong zipped image" error in fastboot when i rename the files to PJ75IMG.zip.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jbhtexas:
Roaming

After searching through the thread, I'm a little confused about data roaming status in this ROM. Does data romaing work in 4.13.651.4 without any modification, or is a fix needed?

In post #3, under the "Bugs" section, it says data roaming is disabled by default, and there is a link to a fix. It's been awhile, but I was thinking that this thread was initially started as for 4.13.651.3, and perhaps that statement applies to that ROM. Other posts in the thread indicate that data roaming works without any changes required.

Any feedback on data roaming is greatly appreciated, including actual experience. Due to traveling, unfortunately, I have to data roam...

Thanks!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] :
Yes, data roaming works on .4 build.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rodohmes:
Yep, I can confirm that data roaming works as it should on .4 build.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jbhtexas:
Thanks for the info!

I don't know if Captain_Throwback still reads this thread, but if you are reading, perhaps you could edit the "Bugs" section in the second post, since the roaming bug is no longer present.

Thanks again!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Lurien:
I'm curious.. I'm currently on the new partition layout . But I never ran the ruu for .4 ... I used the zips provided to update the firmware. Should I run it at this point?? only problem I seem to have is connection not sticking to lte.. would running the ruu fix that?? I'm on the V4 Rom btw.. thanks!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
You can, it won't hurt anything. Best case scenario is that it indeed fixes your issue.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Lurien:
Thanks a lot. Are there specific instructions to run the ruu.. it's been a while...lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
Hit the top link in my sig and scroll down to the RUU section. Also, a link to the 4.13.651.4 RUU is located at the bottom of the first post.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Updating first page with TWRP 2.8.0.0. MTP appears to work on some computers, but not with all. It's still a WIP, but it's better than nothing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Well MTP still appears to be hit or miss (seems to mostly be a driver issue), but I was able to get external SD card mounting and adb working properly again. So I'll be updating the OP with an unofficial 2.8.0.2 build, which also includes [MENTION=4258433]mdmower[/MENTION]'s chargeled binary, for fully working charging led in recovery. There was a method in place for this previously, but it used TWRP flags, and was specific to HTC devices. The new method allows the TWRP code to remain untouched.

So give it a shot, and let me know what works for you and what doesn't.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MassStash:
Oh wow, man that's great stuff!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
So I tried out the latest recovery, and all seems well. I don't spend much time in recovery, and I can say that it completes the tasks that I need it to do.

In other words, it's functional for the general public.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Updated thread with TWRP 2.8.0.3 (unofficial). MTP should be working properly now :).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ycats:
Not to sound like a newbie, but how do you install v2.8.0.3?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Valsorim:
I installed it w Flash Image GUI, or should be able to use Flashify from what I've heard
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ycats:
I flashed the image file using Flashify, but when booting to recovery, it goes to hboot screen.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
You can use the app Flashify to install the latest recovery once you've downloaded it to your phone. You can also put the recovery IMG file in your ADB/Fastboot folder and flash using the command "fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery" (without quotation marks). Do this while connected via Fastboot USB mode while in the bootloader. There are also directions on the TWRP site how to install the recovery. If the recovery file is a ZIP file you can install it the same way you would a firmware update, by renaming the file PJ75IMG and placing it on your external SD card, then rebooting to the bootloader. Select the Hboot option, allow the bootloader to scan for the ZIP file, then follow the on-screen instructions.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ycats:
thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
TeamWin is at it again!

Support for TTF fonts and CPU temp additions soon to be merged to TWRP. Also automatic data/media handling and MTP updates have already been merged.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] roundaway:
[MENTION=1162986]Captain_Throwback[/MENTION]

Your signature shows a link to TWRP 2.8.0.4. but it shows 2.8.0.3. It is time for .4?

Thank you, roundaway
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
What my signature shows is that I'm using a version I called 2.8.0.4. That doesn't mean there's another version for public consumption (yet). I'm just pre-testing what will be part of the next official TWRP release. Nothing to worry about.

Did you happen to look at the post right before yours?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] roundaway:
Yes I did. It was posted a loooong time ago. 11-days if my math is correct. Thanks for the quick answer and for your contributions to the mighty Jewel.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Wow, 11 days is a long time now? :eek: Either way, you can see the version number in the screenshot matches what's in my sig ;).

I'm sure the official update will come out soon, and when it does, I'll "officially" update this version.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ocarinaz64:
[MENTION=1162986]Captain_Throwback[/MENTION], you're the MAN. I was jammed up badly, because I reformatted everything, and I forgot that I had wiped my ROMs and backups in the process. MTP was able to work for me for a while, but then the USB storage worked just fine. I was able to transfer everything I needed over to the phone without using a lengthier process to get the needed files to flash back onto my phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Don't know if anyone's still even using this device, but I updated to the latest TWRP (2.8.1.0).

This version has some major changes in it on the device side, but in the end, it should actually be more stable (theoretically):

- Removed exfat-fuse support and now use texfat module from stock ROM for exFAT support

- Added new splash screen thanks [MENTION=5444464]PünchUp[/MENTION] for his work! This goes well with [MENTION=2719389]z31s1g[/MENTION]'s Materialised theme!

Yeah, I know, that's just one change, but believe me, it's a big deal, lol. I was considering trying to add f2fs support, but there's no need for that on this now legacy device.

So, please try this build out and let me know if there any issues. This was a bit of patchwork to get it to support the stock module, but it seems to work (though I haven't really done anything with it myself).

TWRP_Recovery_2.8.1.0_Jewel_NPL_CPTB.img

It's an image file, so standard "fastboot flash recovery TWRP_Recovery_2.8.1.0_Jewel_NPL_CPTB.img" will handle it ;).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 63sammo1:
Thanks capt. Evo Lte is my back up device. Try and keep it current as possible.

Thanks for ALL you do!

Nice...About to flash it..I tried doing a backup a couple of days ago, and i got some kind of error during backup...If it happens again, ill post some text ....Thanks again for still giving us bits here and there. I too am still rocking this and trying to milk it till the next gen S6 or HTC show up.....:good:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Any additional feedback?

From anyone?

Without feedback, there's no reason for me to keep updating this. I assume since the latest versions all work well enough, I should just leave it at that.

I'll upload my last version with the exFAT module and working f2fs and let it die there, I think. It's been a good run.

P.S. I also added NTFS support.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Osirus71:
Sorry for delay....Just getting chance to flash and try a backup today...Will Post restults...:good:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jbhtexas:
Same here!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fizbanrapper:
The new recovery is fantastic! I waited to flash it because I wanted to see if others had issues. I once flashed a version of twrp that wouldn't restore my backups, so I've been slow to flash ever since.

I have no idea how you do what you do, but I'm very appreciative!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Wildclip:
Thanks for the updates Capt
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] itek:
I just installed this today. Thanks for keeping this phone going for us. I'm hoping this solves some stability issues I've been having. It's not unusual for me to get reboots and/or a loss of wifi password. Fingers crossed, and I'll report back. Thanks again.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
I'm not sure what those issues have to do with recovery?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] itek:
Me neither, but the theming looks nice.

<edit>

Not surprisingly, the issue remains. Maybe (probably?) my ROM. I'm not sure tbh. It's been an issue since I switched to the new partition. But the theme and Aroma FM are nice. As always, danke.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jbhtexas:

Battery life

So after a few days on the ROM, things work fine, but battery life has taken a big hit relative to the 4.2 stock ROM. Searching through the thread, it seems others have run into the problem as well. I installed BetterBatteryStats, as others have done, and the phone seems to be Awake for significant periods when the screen is off. In the past twelve hours, the phone has been awake for just over 2 hours, deep sleep for 10 hours, but the screen has only been on 1 hour. Battery went from 75% to 15%. Previously, I could go a day or more between charges. BetterBatteryStats indicates NlpWakeLock and NlpCollectorWakelock are the biggest Partial wakelocks, at over 7 minutes each. I'm just learning BetteryBatterStats, so any hints for trouble shooting are welcome.

I'm just checking if the above usage seems normal for 4.3, or if there is some setting that could possibly improve the battery life. I've played around with a few google settings, but nothing has helped.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Osirus71:
Ive had that issue for a while...Im currently running the 4.13 651.4 Sense 5 Rom but have bad issues with battery draining. I found out its the Google Services related to PlayStore App Updates. They wont update on there own sometimes...The phone starts getting warm and I notice battery drain, I then go to the PlayStore >My Apps to see if any of my Apps require updates, and sure enough. There is always at least one App waiting to be updated...So I think its trying to run the automatic update for Apps, but gets caught in some kind of loop that keeps the phone awake...Once I manually run the "Update All" Apps or just do a "Hot Reboot", the phone goes back to normal and stops draining battery...I think I read somewhere about the possibility of it being a bug in the 4.13 651.4 Factory RUU. Dont know if this helps, but it keeps my phone from draining while im out and around....:confused:

TWRP Backup

Ive been trying to run a backup and they continue to fail. Im currently on Capts TWRP 2.8.0.3 Ive tried different twrps from this thread with the same results..Attached are a couple of pics from TWRP..If someone has seen this before and know any suggestions, please let me know...

Thanks

You've tried the latest TWRP?

Where are you backing up to?

EDIT: After looking at your pics, it looks like you have a corrupt file on data (related to Twitter, it seems). Have you tried repairing your data partition first, then backing up?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Osirus71:
Looks like my Data/Data partition is corrupted....Wiping the partition still leaves previous files... Need to format and repair...When i go in there with File Explorer and try to delete the file related to Twitter, im not able to...Says file is no longer there, but it still is...This is after doing a full TWRP wipe/format and reinstall of Rom...Maybe i need to RUU again to wipe out everything???

Going to try your latest TWRP and see if that makes any difference...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Did you try to repair the partition using TWRP (that's what I was suggesting earlier)?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jbhtexas:
After playing around for a few days with BBS, I've gotten the battery drain down from 4.5%/hr to 1.2%/hr when sleeping. I can live with that. The problem is, as I was trying several things simultaiously (bad experimentation, I know), I'm not exactly sure what did the trick. It was probably a combination of things. Some things I did:

1) I noticed from BBS that the Visual Voicemail App was fairly active while the phone was sleeping. I went in to the setting there and disabled trial notification from Sprint, and as I recall one or two other extraneous things that I didn't think I needed. When trying to exit settings, I noticed VVM wouldn't save them due to a server timeout. I then tried an update for the app, and that wouldn't work either for the same reason. I switched from WiFi to 4G, and the settings saving and update worked. VVM has since been much less active.

2) in Settings->Location, I unchecked "Wi-Fi & mobile network location" and "Wi-Fi scanning always available". I haven't found that any of the apps I regularly use gripe about these settings.

3) I also unchecked "Let Google apps access your location". This setting gains a few tenths of a percent on batter drain, but two negative consequences of this were that Google Maps doesn't work (wants access to location), and Gmail will not notify of a received message if the phone is sleeping; the Gmail notification doesn't come until you wake up the phone. Since I get weather updates from Gmail, I turned this one back on.

4) I also gained a few tenths of a % by setting the phone face (screen) down instead of face up. I'm usually on WiFi at home, so this could be because the antennas are closer to the cover on the side opposite the screen. With "Let Google apps access you location" enabled, The Google apps are probably always doing some kind of network access, even when the phone is supposed to be sleeping.

Some things I had done previously:

1) Set all app updates to manual.

2) Set all email updates for my POP accounts using the native email client to manual update. Even with this setting, for some reason, I still occasionally get notifcation of new email on those POP accounts, even though both peak and off-peak times are set to manual update. I don't know what's going on there, but for some reason, the email client is still checking those accounts periodically.

That's about all I remember. Perhaps this can be of help to someone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shauggy:
Thanks for all the work you've put into this phone. I meant to install this version of TWRP today, but my work PC couldn't see my Evo in fastboot - had to wait until I got home. But finally threw it on there, and in terms of feedback, so far it's working great. I was on 2.8.0.2 before, couldn't mount the SD card via TWRP and couldn't do a Nandroid (since it would backing up my internal storage as part of the Data partition, didn't have enough room on my SD card) but this fixed both of those issues. The new look goes well with the Material design vibe.

I did have it freeze up on me the first time I flashed a ROM - threw CM 12 on there and tried to go back to flash Gapps, locked up and I had to reboot. But other than that it's been perfect, figured it was probably a one-off thing.

Thanks again for all the work you've done to keep this thing alive. I've learned a ton by mucking about with this phone, and for it's age it still works great as my daily driver. Glad to be able to run some semi-recent software on it on a reliable basis.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
I actually updated the recovery to 2.8.3.0 yesterday. Just never got around to posting a link.
