BusyBox included with this updater

I have had issues trying to remove system apps with Titanium Backup after running this update. I would remove the items, and they would re-appear.

I found that if I use BusyBox installer to re-install busybox, it now works!

The link in my sig that should get you started, you need to root(unlock) your phone before you can flash a custom ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] luist4498:
Guys, i need some serious help! My wifes Evo was rooted via Unrevoked running myn rls4 and stock #17 kernel. We tried flashing the radio/wimax combo from virus and the phone got stuck on a screen with a white open box and arrow coming out of it and an android robot beside it. Eventually i had to take the battery out. When i tried to restore the nandroid backup i had just done prior to flashing the radio/wimax, it just gets stuck on the white screen that says htc evo 4g after reboot. It lets me restore the nandroid of the stock rooted rom but nothing else. I even tried a new download of myns rls4 and it gets stuck in reboot again and again. It will only restore the stock rooted one. Can anyone PLEASE help me!?!

I'm new to this so bare with me. I'm rooted with unrevoked so to get the new update flash this room then flash the new radio and I will still have root?
[EVO 4G Android Development] titansfan745:
Any help would be greatly appreciated

So I flashed the Deodexed version of this ROM this weekend and it re-booted with no problem. I then went back into Recovery using CWM and flashed the Radio/WiMax combo and it flashed unusually quick. The on screen message then prompted me to Re-boot to complete initialization or something to that effect. So then I re-boot and it takes a second for the screen to shut off like usual and then where it normally brings up my splash screen it brings up the little cigarette looking box with the arrow pointing towards the Android guy standing outside the box. I didn't panic and did a battery pull as I have had this happen once before. I put the battery back in and try to power on and the same image pops up. I did a battery pull again and tried to turn on the device in Hboot mode and then something bad happened, the same image popped up again. FML. I have waited 24 hours and attempted to go back into HBoot and the same thing happens over and over. I downloaded both the ROM and the VIRUS file from my phone, but I did notice the Radio/Max file downloaded unusually quick ( Bad download maybe???) and I also performed a NANDROID back up but without being able to access my HBOOT, it's pretty much useless to me. Needless to say, I am currently the owner of a $500 dollar paper weight ( A very nice one might I add). I do have insurance and can make a claim if need be. But I would really like to avoid having to pay the deductible if at all possible. I have used these forums religiously and am now hoping that some kind soul might be able to save me from the depths of BRICKED EVO HELL. Any links to a guide or input on correcting the problem would be greatly and absolutely appreciated. Or if you just want to be brutally honest and tell me my EVO is doomed from now until eternity I would appreciate it also... Thanks for reading if you made it this far and I anxiously await any and all responses

Anyone have the CheckSum on the new ROMS?
[EVO 4G Android Development] grapeape41:
I have a question. Does this update your HBOOT and is that something I should be worried about?
[EVO 4G Android Development] titansfan745:
No this does not upgrade or change your HBOOT in any way. This is strictly a STOCK rooted ROM. No more, no less. The only difference I could tell for the little time that I was running it was some bloatware, but then again that's just at first glance.... Anyways, anybody have any suggestions for my BRICKED phone? Thanks in advance

Is there a OTA updated rom that doesnt wipe out all your settings? I just tried this RUU update and it wiped everything. Looking for the latest update without having to use recovery (TB) to get my apps back. I was able to just load the 3.29.651.5 rom and kept all my user settings. Any ideas?

[EVO 4G Android Development] ifly4vamerica:
Thays supposed to happen, let it flash the radio. Once you hit flash it will load the zip and then ask you to reboot. During this reboot is when the radio is flashed. Takes a few minutes. Once it has loaded the radio it will take you back to recovery. Not sure if interrupting this by pulling the radio has bricked you or not.

This... hopefully it hasnt been too interrupted.. or just start it over. You are NOWHERE near bricked, from the sounds of it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] titansfan745:
WOW

I feel like an idiot, and for this moment in time I probably was. I turned the phone on and let it sit there for more than 30 seconds like I was and it bootlooped twice and then launched my new stock ROM with no problem. Thanks to everyone for their timely response and this is why XDA is and will always be the best tech site on the web. I was ready to turn my phone in and all I had to do was have a little patience. At least now I know that symbol is a system prompt and not an error message. Sorry to waste everybody's time, I guess I was being paranoid.
[EVO 4G Android Development] titansfan745:
Not sure what recovery your using but if it's CWM you can go into RECOVERY, wipe cache and dalvik 2X, then go into NANDROID and go to ADVANCED RESTORE select your most recent BACKUP and select RESTORE DATA. Flash, re-boot, and WOILA! All of your data will be restored from your latest backup on your new ROM. Apps, texts, phone calls, wallpapers, EVERYTHING. It's quick and easy so give it a try, you might be surprised

I'm a newb, so.. I rooted my 0002 version Evo 2.2 with Unrevoked forever. I want the new update but to keep my root. I have titanium backup installed. Is this what I'm looking for? And what does deodexed mean and what's the differance. I pretty much wanna keep a stock Evo for now with Root access untill I learn more. Can you help me out? would be greatly appreciated.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Smoothrob:
I downloaded this from mediafire on to my phone. it's on my SD card in downloads. I went thru my clockwork recovery to install from SD. It sez Cannot Open (bad). All I really want is a stock EVO with all of it's updates that's Rooted. I downloaded the odexed version. Am I doing something wrong? I am a noob, I don't want to get in to deep until I learn more. Can you please help me with this? I also downloaded the Virus_blahblahblah to update the Radio, I put that on my Sd card but I haven't installed that yet. Thank you
[EVO 4G Android Development] kast107:
So are you already rooted, or do you only have clockwork installed? I'm a noob too, but from my understanding, you cannot install ANY ROM unless you are already rooted.

If you are rooted, I recommend placing the file in the root (main sd card) using astro file manager. I would also recommend flashing Amon Ra Recovery through ROM Manager, since I hear that it can help prevent a LOT of headaches.

Once you have Amon Ra, restart phone, boot into recovery (Volume down+power button), perform a NANDROID BACKUP, factory wipe, cache and dalvik wipe at LEAST twice, then flash the zip file. Note that you will lose ALL of the information (apps, etc.) on the phone, but anything on the SD card should be safe.

Hope this helps, but if it doesn't, all I can recommend is read, read, read. There are a LOT of great resources here, but you have to know how to use them and be willing to search for them, or risk getting flamed, and/or little help. There are quite a few step by step guides on here too, but like I said, it may take a little searching.

Good luck!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Smoothrob:
I am rooted and I successfully installed the odexed version. I'm going to update the radio from the same thread but the first word in the file name is virus.. must be developers humor. Gonna check it out further. I used unrevoked forever with clockwork mod with busybox. I did a nandroid back up and data restore after. So far so good!! Thanks for the reply.. love this sight. Just have to keep reading and learn the lingo a bit I guess.
[EVO 4G Android Development] shaun0207:
Which do you flash first? Radios or the Ruu?
[EVO 4G Android Development] titansfan745:
You must be ROOTED in order to run rooted ROMS.
[EVO 4G Android Development] titansfan745:
This is not an OTA update you are installing. This is simply a stock rooted ROM, it will not update your HBOOT nor will it update your RADIO/WIMAX. This ROM simply has the changes from the 3.70 update applied to it. Deodexed means that this ROM can have themes or mod's flashed for it while ODEXED does not provide this option. Most people prefer deodexed but it is usually a larger file size with less cache available upon wipe.
[EVO 4G Android Development] titansfan745:
VIRUS simply refers to the XDA member ( and bad-ass developer might I add) who originally posted the .zip's for the RADIO and WIMAX.
[EVO 4G Android Development] titansfan745:
I would say you would probably want to flash the RUU as I hear that the new radio/WIMAX's do not play nice with ROM's from a previous base. Even though you are probably going to flash the RUU once you re-boot from flashing the radio, you could still potentially have some buggy issues with the updated radio and a non-3.70 ROM... Hope this helps
[EVO 4G Android Development] shaun0207:
Thanks. I appreciate it
[EVO 4G Android Development] shaun0207:
One last question about flashing: Do I flash these with Clockwork mod or Power off , volume down?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Didact74:
How do I install all my apps back on the phone if they get wiped off by installing this new update? I backed everything up with Titanium already but this ROM will wipe that off when I load it right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] titansfan745:
Pump your brakes

Are you rooted? Do you have experience flashing? Make sure your comfortable doing so because you can BRICK your device easily. Anything you flash will be done through a custom recovery, currently their are only two recovery's that I know of; Amon RA and ClockwordMod. Whenever you hold the power and volume down button you are going into your bootloader or HBOOT mode as some people refer to it. When you select RECOVERY from the bootloader menu you are going into RECOVERY mode, the type depends on what you installed when you rooted the phone. So I guess to answer your question im trying to say that in order to flash what your trying to flash you must go into HBOOT mode by holding power and volume down, then go into your recovery image and flash through it. But if I was you I would definitely read as much info as you can on the subject until your comfortable flashing custom ROM's, themes, radio/WIMAX, or MOD's etc... because inexperience can lead to undesirable consequences ie, BRICKED device, losing your RSA keys permanently(broken 4G), and other things you really don't want to deal with.

[EVO 4G Android Development] bb101984:
This is a great ROM thank you!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Ice007112:
First off, thank you for the rom. Though I am not new to the whole "hacking/softmodding" scene, I am new to Android.

I flashed the deodexed version of the rom and Virus's radio update from the op. Had no problems with anything. Rom runs very smooth. I do have a few questions on things that I see happening though. I have taken screenshots to help show what my questions are regarding. I am under 8 posts so I will just say what attachment belongs to each question.

I have read every page and noticed that a kernal #17 was mentioned. Here is a screenshot of my software versions and would like to know if everything looks to be updated to where it should be. Please see attachment named: Untitled-2.png.

Second, When I start my phone, I see this show up quickly. See attachment named: SAM_1900.JPG. Is this something I need to worry about? How do I fix if if it needs to be?

Third, when I go to my Groups section in my Contacts, everything is labeled weird. I had to actually create a Favorites manually so it said "Favorites" on the widget. Please see attachment named: screenshot_1.png.

I had used the Christmas theme from this site: forum. androidcentral. com/htc-evo-4g-roms-hacks/17521-sgbz-evo-themes. html and then used the revert back to stock froyo theme. As I continued to read through all of the posts in this thread, I noticed that it was mentioned that themes don't work with this rom yet. Is that my case here? Were the themes the culprit to the funkiness of what I am seeing? If so, then I can just reflash the rom but would like to know before I spend the time to do it and not have it be fixed. Thank you in advance for any help.

Edit: One last question, lol. Bloatware. I have seen it asked atleast twice with no response in this thread. How can I get it to stay uninstalled? I used Titanium Backup with "Chuck Norris" mode selected to uninstall and after when I restart my phone anytime after, it gets reinstalled everytime. I also used Root Explorer and deleted all instances of a search for "Blockbuster" on the phone and it still managed to reinstall. Even with the .apk deleted. What is going on with that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dom085:
The only question I can help you with is the kernel. The 3.70 update uses HTC #15.

I believe the reason that people were mentioning HTC #17 (that was used on 3.30), is that 17 doesn't work with the new radios.

I'm a little confused about the naming convention myself. But it is what it is.

I hope someone more knowledgeable can help with your other questions.

Search & read before you re-ask questions that have been asked a million times before. A lot of ppl have spent a lot of time writing a lot of content you can search through for basic how-to info. There are wiki docs as stickies at the top of this board. It seems like your being ignored, but it's just we can't delete your post and slap you like we want to.

Smart newb questions welcome :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] dboftlp:
All good.

I would wipe & reflash. Themes are pretty ROM specific. If your getting errors & funky stuff, backup, wipe, reflash, but don't flash the theme before setup. See if you still get the issue in Stock (I bet you won't).

Unsure about this one, but I think there are several files to gut. I'm not actually running this, so I haven't had it installed or had to gut that app yet.

Can't update PRL or profile

I am using this rom, and it seems to be working fine. But, if I try to update PRL or update profile, I get an error:

PRL could not be updated. Please try again later. If the problem persists, you may need to contact Customer Service: Error code:1012

I did reinstall my /data after installing this ROM, and everything else seems to be working just fine.

Is this an expected result? Is there something that I should not have installed, or should have, for this to work properly?

I did try redoing the hands free activation, but that made it worse (it failed and then I had no 3g at all). I finally reverted to a different ROM, then the phone activated again, and updated the PRL, and then I went back to this ROM.

Any insights or information about this that can be offered?

Welcome to the android world. There's a lot to learn regardless of how far you want to take this OS. Save that *.zip for now and take a moment to learn more about rooting if that's what you really want to do--there's a lot you can do to your phone without rooting and is a fair consideration as it's a process that voids your phone's warranty. I waited six months to root my phone because of all the reading I was doing. Others did it the day they bought their phones.

Take the time to know the XDA website. There's a lot of information here so you might want to start here (rooting and recovery tutorials);

HTC Supersonic/Guides & Tutorials

Then try this page to get overall information about ROMs and kernels.

HTC Supersonic

Lastly, orient your questions in the appropriate forum. For questions go here because a lot of questions specific to rooting have been answered many times.

Good luck.

unrevoked root

Hi all, I am sorry if this has been asked, i tried a search for unrevoked info earlier and not much was to be had.

I rooted my phone with unrevoked 3 [the newest version]. Now this newest update comes out and I am wondering what the best way to update my software. I ask because i am hoping there is an easier way than having to wipe my phone.

i figured that since unrevoked was so easy to use, there might be an easy update method for those using the clockworkmod that cam with the unrevoked.

ok, phone info follows:

Android: 2.2

Baseband: 2.15.00.09.01

Kernel: 2.6.32.15-ge2fb08e htc-kernel@and18-2 #11

Build: 3.29.651.5 CL252548 release-keys

Software: 3.29.651.5

Browser: webkit 3.1

PRI: 1.77_003

PRL: 60671

I should note that it was this forum that pointed me in the direction of using unrevoked in the first place.

FOTA update 3.70.651.1

I read your thread. but have a question. yes my evo is rooted also. I don't know which update to use the (Deodexed Version*** (required for theming)) what is theming? or the ***Odexed Version***.

Where do I find the instructions to do one of the above?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dom085:
Themes can be added on top of a rom. They change the appearance of the rom (such as colors, fonts, notification areas, icons, etc). These are purely cosmetic, and as such any recommendation is moot. Purely personal preference. Check out the Themes forums for more info and screenshots of themes in action. Many are rom-specific, so make sure yours is supported.

A rom must be deodexed to be themeable, and this increases file size. If you aren't interested in theming, save some internal memory and go with the odexed (unthemeable) version.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thfoster:
I'm experiencing the same problem. I came from a stock ROM rooted with unrEVOked and I could remove bloatware with out a problem using the "Norris" mode in Titanium Backup. After wiping and flashing this ROM and the radios I can't get them to stay gone. They will show as uninstalled in Ti but they are never actually gone. They stay in the app drawer and when I reboot they are right back in the app list in Ti. I emailed the app dev and he said it sounds like the ROM is NAND locked. Could that be the case?

What I want to know is. How do I keep the new ota running n reflash my cw backup? I like the new ota, I just dnt want 2 hav 2 download all my apps n settings again when they rite there! I tried flashing them back on my EVO. It worked but got rid of the new ota. Is there any way I can run both da new ota and my backup?

Also is the new ota supposed 2 have da old Facebook app? I prefer the new one with the IM feature.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dom085:
You're fundamentally missing what you are actually flashing. Your nand backup is an exact mirror of your phone including kernel, system files, and apps. It is not just your personal data and apps.

You wiped data like you were supposed to when you flashed 3.70. Of course your apps are gone.

You should be using an app that backs up your phone info and other apps to the sdcard. I use Titanium Backup, but others like My Backup. You can then batch reinstall all missing apps on your new rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] generalExpert:
Hey, I just downloaded My Backup and backed up my apps. I selected apk+data. It all went well. The only question I have is... After we flash a ROM and everything is wiped, including that "My Backup" app, how will we be able to restore? I'm guessing the easy answer is to just redownload "My Backup" and use the file that's been created on the SD card...
