[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muttleytm:
I mentioned the SuperSU just to inform that it wasn't fully rooted to s-off.

I tried a couple other ROMs. I tried DigitalKarma9 and it did install. It looks like it was stuck and I put it in my pocket and didn't get back to it for about an hour. At that time there was a screen saying no touch setup had failed. I don't have a carrier so that would be expected, but, when I tried to press OK or Cancel the screen was unresponsive. At that point I figured it was stuck and rebooted and at that point it seemed to not get past the screen with the white background and black HTC EVO 4G.

I then tried to flash one called sura. Again it took quite a while, but, I eventually got to what appeared to be a home screen, but, it was locked. When I tried to pull down the circle that said lock it didn't respond. I did try tapping on the screen and when I did that it seemed to cause the screen to wipe and go to black.

Here are a couple more recovery log files:

Again, I wiped cache and delvec cache. Should I wipe system or boot, etc. too?

I started out replacing the screen and digitizer but the locking mechanism on main board ribbon cable connector for the screen broke and I installed new (used) main board. I was having some trouble getting it to boot up after my repairs, but, at one point I got it working. I was at a laundromat and wasn't paying much attention to what I was doing. I got it connected to wifi there and somewhere else. When I got home I then had trouble getting it to connect to my home wifi so I pulled the battery and rebooted. That is when it got stuck in the boot cycle.

Any suggestions on what I should do or a very robust ROM to use? If I ever get it started I want to set up FreedomPop, but, I will need a ROM with Sense to do that.
