Root woke up to white evo screen...fixed....what happened?

[lesawag]

I woke up to my phone stuck on evo white screen, would not boot up at all. Tried battery pulls, tried to restore android back ups of Kings r5, nothing. The only restore that worked was the basic unrevoked backup. The only thing I had changed in the last 2 days was the battery calibration app, and I changed my settings on set CPU. Min was still at 245 and max was 1158. I was running Kings r5 and my kernel (which was installed Thursday) was, netarchy toast 4.3.4. Havs more sbc. Any ideas??? All three of my Kings r5 backups would not work. Thanks again. Evomattnc, if you would not have taught me how to flash manually, I would have been completely lost. Thanks for pushing me to learn to flash manually. You saved my morning and my nerves. I'm going to re-flash kings r 5 in a bit. Not sure if I will use the same kernel, but probably will. I think its something I did. Ideas??

I have heard of this a few times though I'm not sure the resolution. Do you have plenty of internal and external memory or are they close to used up?

How do your restores fail? Oops? Or restores but then doesn't boot?

It's was very odd..think my memory was fine.3gigs. On my SD card, 193 phone memory...it might have been more. Not sure about kings back ups. I had 2 from last weekend, it said restore complete both times. It just wouldn't get past white screen. Waited 15 mins, both times. Wonder if I should try to restore them again and wait longer?

Meh 15 is pretty good. I know you know to wipe...did you wipe anything before the restore?

Do u think its cause your over clocked so hi..my phone can not handle that rate on some roms

Really don't know, what happened. Lol. Went ahead and tried to restore my kings r5 again, no luck again. No I did not wipe anything before trying to restore. Should I have? Went ahead re-flashed kings r5 again, then made another nandroid backup. Have not reflashed 4.3.4 havs more sbc yet. I probably will soon.

Is it ok, now that I've flashed Rom and kernel again, to clear battery stats manually? What should I set scaling to with set CPU? Thanks

wiping before a restore depends on what you backed up. I would always st least wipe cache before restore. It doesn't hurt to do a full wipe and I would suggest it. Do a full wipe and try again.

245-1113 some can go to 1152 or even 1190 but 1113 is def safe, you can try 1152. I prefer smart ass scaling...

Thanks for the info. I will wipe before a restore from now on. I had my set CPU at 1158...I had changed it to that a few hours before my issues started. I'm going to leave it on 948 for now I think. I've got scaling on conservative...is this right? I just reflashed the Rom and kernel and all seems fine. Oh is it safe to wipe battery stats manually? Could I safely do it now?
