Ok, so after trying to install Myn's RLS4, it goes through the whole install process, but when it's all finished, I get what looks like the stock Sprint set up w/ htc sense.

I have the home screens with all of the sprint apps and widgets, football, nascar, etc.

Here's the info after installing:

Android version - 2.2

Baseband version - 2.15.00.11.19

Kernel version - 2.6.32.17-gee557fd htc-kernel@and18-2#15

Build # - 3.70.651.1

Software # - 3.70.651.1

PRI version - 1.90_003

PRL Version - 60674

I've tried this so many times now, I'm about to give up. I can install cyanogen fine, I can install other ROMs fine, but this one is acting up.

I've tried it from the ROM Manager download, I've tried it from installing from the SD card, all does the same thing. I never get any errors or anything that I can see.

What exactly am I doing wrong?!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmillspaysbills:
Ok, one at a time. Then I shouldn't be doing a clean wipe each time then right?

I don't understand how you can install one addon, then flash another with a clean wipe. Wouldn't the previous addon go away?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Product F(RED):
People on RLS4, if you're having issues with data or the phone being slow, roll back your PRI to 1.77_003. Also works fine with RLS5 as that's what I'm using. Works with the combo update (new radio):

In recovery you can flash file from SD card, so you choose the file you want to flash and do them 1 at a time, when 1 gets done do not select reboot just select flash file from SD card again, if they are different mods...battery, keyboards ect. They do not over write each other. I do suggest after flashing a new Rom ...reboot make sure everything is ok then reboot into recovery and do a nand backup before adding mods, because not all mods play nice with all evos or roms.

As for where to put the mod files, in armon ra they have to be in your SD root "sd/" for clockworkmod they can be in a folder on your SD card .To better organize I keep a file called zip extras on the root of my SD card. In CWM I can use them from that file, but I'm Armon Ra I need to copy the file to sd/ .

*no wiping needed for mods only Rom and kernels, or unless file says too.

[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
when i test ROMS, Kernels, Mods, Add-Ons, etc. i follow a routine,

so i can tell what may or may not be causing an issue, if one arises

(basically, the last thing added doesn't work with pre-existing setup -

so i try it after backing up to base level without the other goodies loaded)

i used the attached form for Myn's RLS 4 for base ROM and Kernel, then the goodies i wanted to use (at that time) to develop a base.

and * very important * to make sure nothing was causing my phone not to sleep. i use system panel to help with that.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12917383/Myn%27s_RLS-4_Checklist.pdf

i always do a full wipe to have a clean install of a ROM with it's attached kernel.

whenever i flash anything else, i always wipe cache and dalvik cache (twice) and then flash the zip file (always from recovery).

and make nandroid backups often!

after enough reading and trial and error, and probably some battery pulls !,

you become an advance noob ! good luck and pm if i can help out in anyway.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmillspaysbills:
I tried it one more time, with the same result. I don't know why I thought it would be any different. Here's what's happening:

So when I originally tried installing Myn's RLS4, I was trying to install from a freshly rooted Evo (with revoked 3.3) from the stock HTC sense. (I had launcher pro premium installed, but I don't know if that matters)

Anyway, I tried several times like I said, and it would always revert to the default HTC Sense home screens, with none of the awesome graphics from the screen shot.

Here's a really dumb question, and I really hope this isn't the answer, but is that what the warm RLS4 is supposed to look like? Do I need to install all of these add ons to make it look fancy?

I tried installing the clear title bar and other add ons, but I didn't see any of those working after install.

Like I said, no errors, nothing like that, it all seemed to work fine. Again, here is my info:

Android version - 2.2

Baseband version - 2.15.00.11.19

Kernel version - 2.6.32.17-gee557fd htc-kernel@and18-2#15

Build # - 3.70.651.1

Software # - 3.70.651.1

PRI version - 1.90_003

PRL Version - 60674

I appreciate any insight/help you can give.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
RLS 4 will not load in properly with those radios and PRI.

do a full wipe, flash RLS 4 and before rebooting flash one

of the alternate kernels listed from this thread OP Post #1 (Kings Kernel, for example)

htc kernel #17 included with RLS 4, does not work with the latest radios combo.

you either need to flash radio back to 2.15.00.09.01 or PRI back to 1.77_003

to use RLS 4 with stock htc kernel #17

hope that helps

@lowetax

Do you not recommend using something like ROM Manager? That's what I've tried to use so far, simply because it seems to be the easiest way for a non programmer to flash ROMs.

I know being a non programmer and trying to mess with rooting, etc.n isn't a great combination, but I like to live on the edge.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cavediver:
You're not flashing Myn's RLS4. Did you remove the PC36img file from the root of your sd card after you finished the unrevoked root? If not, remove all img and zip files from the root of your sd card, re-copy Myn's RLS4 zip to the root of your sd card, flash it, and let it reboot into the rom. Also, RLS4 will not work correctly with PRI 1.90 you need to re-flash PRI 1.77.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmillspaysbills:
Is it possible to do any of that via ROM manager? Or is this something you'd recommend doing manually?
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpost:
Some with more knowledge can be of more help but I do not think your software, kernel and PRI are comatible with rsl4. There is a easy way to make it work, but I don't want to give you the wrong info. If someone with more knowledge would like to jump in please do.

i like seeing what is going on and do it the traditional way - from recovery.

that way when i screw up - it's my fault :)

(plus, i'm usually doing other things from there just before:

nandroid backup, plug into pc, push, usb copy, and the list goes on!)

clockworkmod 2.5.0.1 has been very good to me - as has my 0003 evo.

when i first got involved, i used rom manager, but haven't used that in ages now.

Has anyone tried downgrading just their PRI to 1.77 and used good ole HTC #17. You can keep the new radio/wimax etc.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Androidious:
Hopefully this'll help:

I'm not sure if anyone replied specifically to you with this similar answer, so if so, I don't mean to step on anyones toes. I just haven't read it yet, lol!

Anyway, first of all, assuming youce wiped everything already, you need to flash the rom first and foremost. Then, if you have a custom kernel, I like to do that next. Now for Myn's roms, there is no need to boot the rom first before proceeding with addons/themes, but with most AOSP ROMs, you will need to boot for the first time and then reboot to recovery and flash the theme/addons.

Once you go and flash the theme and addons, after either booting the new rom first or not (depending what works for you), you may flash all of your themes and addons one after the other without having to reboot between each flash. For example, you can flash addons #1, #2, #3... and when done, reboot and all will be done and fine.

Of coarse, assuming no addons are known to cause bootloops. But if you encounter a bootloop, I would flash, reboot, flash, reboot...until you find the addons causing the loops. But if none occur, you can flash all one after the other without booting in between.

I hope that helps a little for ya :-)

Good luck and HAPPY FLASHING!!! LOL!

For those of us now stuck with the version of ROM Manager (3.0.0.2) that no longer works properly with the last correctly working version of Clockwork (2.5.0.1...the one that recognizes the "20,000 erase block" for the vast majority of our EVOs) I have a request:

I've just sent the following email to koushikdutta@hotmail.com. This is the personal email address for KOUSH, (not the rommanager@clockwork one that he's been ignoring). I would appreciate it if more of you would copy, alter, and send one to him, also. Maybe we'll get a response this way...

********

Koush,

I don't know if you read through the massive XDA thread "Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo...", but if you do you know I've been your biggest fan/supporter/defender there (XDA name "Persnlmgr"). I have really enjoyed the ease with which I've been able to use Clockwork 2.5.0.1. Just awesome.

So when the update came out on 12/30 I couldn't load it fast enough, and was thrilled to see WiMax now included in the backup... I immediately did a backup. And went on XDA and wrote, excitedly, about the new versions and how great they were. Even the irony of the new color, Clockwork Orange, made me smile!! Then .01 hit, and I upgraded again. And all seemed fine, until I went in to flash a mod. EPIC FAIL... "Flash aborted...". What a cluster-****.

(It seems there are EVOs with 2 different size "Erase blocks", 20,000 and 40,000, (mine is 20k), and those of us with the 20k erase blocks cannot use your program successfully.)

And now, since I couldn't back up through ROM Manager on 3.0.0.1, I went back to .0. That worked again for backup, but it still wouldn't let me flash zips. And now, neither .0 or .1 or .2 or .3 will flash zips AND I'm petrified I have no valid backup, which sucks, as Myn is in Beta...

Today 3.0.0.3 appeared, so I tried it, AND STILL NO FLASH (aborted). AND YOU'VE COMPLETELY REMOVED THE ABILITY TO USE 2.5.0.1 THROUGH ROM MANAGER...WTF?

I found a PC36IMG of 2.5.0.1, and put it back on my EVO, but losing the ability to use it through RM is insane, as I can't name the files, or perform many other functions. And, in fact, ROM Manager still tells me I'm on 3.0.0.3 though I am definitely back to 2.5.0.1.

Can you either produce a version that, as before, works on ALL EVOs, or at very least, can you please put the ability to use 2.5.0.1 back into ROM Manager?

A lot of "Mynions" would be extremely grateful, as I'm sure would be many others on other ROMs having the same issues.

Thanks,

Neil Hassman (Persnlmgr on XDA)

I don't know about you all, but this has me really insane, and maybe if we bombard him with emails he'll do something about it.

Thanks!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
With your setup, I'm surprised that you even booted up. You appear to have the new radio and prl installed which have been causing problem with rls4 using the stock HTC kernel. Still, it is my understanding that rls3 is installed as well as the preinstalled apps. Right? Now. Are you trying to unzip and install multiple 3rd party apps or mods (transparent tool bar, gingerbread keyboard, etcetera)? If it's the former, then yes, you can use an app like Titanium Backup to backup and restore your apps as a batch. If it's the latter, I've never flashed multiple items all "at once" and you're the first person I've heard mention such a task.

[EVO 4G Android Development] barleysoda:
I think it might help avoid alot of confusion if people used the correct terminology. First of all there is no selection in recovery called "clean wipe". There is the main category called "wipe". Then after going into wipe there are several items that can be wiped. Just wiping dalvik cache and cache will not erase all of your data or default the phone back to factory. The data/factory reset option is what I believe most are calling a clean or full wipe.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Androidious:
Nice, lol!

I thought I read that Myn said Koush and his partner are currently working on these issues and are fully aware of them now. I doubt he's ignoring ppl. He probably just has gotten a $hit ton of emails due to the latest issues with CWM. But pretty sure I heard he's currently working on a fix. :-)

There's a real simple solution to the Clockwork problem. Don't use it or Rom Manager! Install the correct Amon RA for your partition size and nand backup and flash all you want without problems.
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
Don't worry about not being a programmer, most of us aren't (at least I dont think!) I would recommend against using ROM Manager. I am a fan of doing it all manually, from recovery, which is not really complicated. The more you do it, the more comfortable you will get with it. I am honestly not sure what recovery to recommend for you. I use amon ra recovery, not a fan of clockwork. You just need to determine which version you need, because the wrong version will most likely give you issues. In my opinion, that is most likely one of your issues right now, that is preventing you from getting up and running. As lowetax said, you need to roll back your prl and radios, out just your prl and then change the htc 17 kernel before booting. If you have a newer evo, you most likely need the modified version of amon ra, or the most recent clockwork (which I've been reading about a lot of people having issues with that) there is lots of info on this recently, but you need ti determine if you have a 20k or 40k partition size in order to use the correct version of recovery. That is very important. Once you get the right version of recovery, and your radios all set, I am willing to bet you will be running warm! And dont let manually flashing from recovery intimidate you.

You ONLY wipe when changing to a new rom. When adding themes and addons, you flash on top of the rom (w/o wiping). Same goes for kernels. The ROMs always come with their own default kernels. But if you want your own custom kernel, just flash on top of the ROM (no wiping). ONLY wipe when changing the rom. Make better sense?

Sometimes some addonds (or rom upgrades, but only based off the same rom) will require just a cache and dalvik cache (w/o wiping user data). I also always wipe cache and dalvik cache if changing to a new kernel if I've booted the rom I'm putting it on one or more times (booted the rom 1+ times).

Make better sense?
