Seems that my phone is having random restarts so im going to have to have it replaced. However I want to be able to S-OFF my device.
Has anyone had theirs replaced via Sprint's ESRP lately? I'm curious what h-boot the phones are coming with now.
Yep just last week, I cracked my screen and they replace mine. It came with the 1.12 old hboot

did they replace it for free or with a charge?
Wife traded her S3 in on an EvoLTE last weekend. 1.12. I updated it anyway. She doesn't care about rooting as long as PDANET works, so figured I'd get her the fixes and root it later once the have s-off figured out. Plus it lets me get the JB update and see if it's worth while or not.
Mine is about a month old, came with 1.13, rooted, s-on.

I'm wondering if anyone has been denied a return. Does sprint check the bootloader for *Tampered* or *Re-locked*?
I really want to start flashing roms but there is the possibility that I won't keep the phone.
Just relock your bootloader and run ruu. Then it will be acceptable. At least that's what I had to do after I showed up at the store all rooted and everything.

Well my power button was in the fritz the first day. Unfortunately the Regional HTC was at my local Sprint. Guess what he did? That's right. Booted into the bootloader. Why. I have no frikken clue. All the reps were amazed by what I did to the Dr ice so soon. Even another local sprint about 5 miles away found out (a friend of mine that works there told me) I was pretty pissed that I went in there to exchange it out and he booted Into that. O asked him for what reason, but he seriously had no clue what the f**k he was talking about. Honest to god. I'm mean, I'm sure he was just a sales Rep for HTC. But damn. When he seen that Tampered sign and when he also booted into TWRP, he was like "jeez, android in gone. Why did you do that?" LOL. So, o talked to one of my girl friends from Sprint, she's gonna hook me up. But I wad so shocked that he did that, all over me ha ing an issue with my power button. That was the first for me. Thank is god tha issue I had was due to a couple of apps .or allowing my phone to sleep correctly. Ahh well

I exchanged mine yesterday after with it relocked and still rooted with no issues.
Well to be fair a bad kernel could affect the power button. Maybe he thought you were flashing kernel ports or something
Thanks for the response guys!! I'm gonna unlock now!

It's hard to check if the bootloader was unlocked when you have a broken screen. (wink wink)

Well that is good to know. I'm waiting for mine to charge so I can activate, but hopefully everything checks out. I'm glad to know that relocking and going back to stock seems to take care of CS issues.

Great!!!!!!!!!!
Anyone else?
Is Sprint the only place to get the white EVO?
thats not entirely true. when i got my first white evo july 13th it had the hboot 1.15... however when i brought it into Sprint to have them swap it out due to a vibration defect, the new one that i got had hboot 1.12 on it. pretty much luck of the draw.
and yes you can only get the white evo at a sprint store
I got my whitey about a week ago, and it is now S-OFF Came with the old software, thankfully.
My white one came with 1.12. Was very relieved to find that, I thought for sure it wouldn't be.

Hi everyone: It all started last night when I tried to do a PRL update but accidentally hit Profile update...Now my data doesn't work! I took my phone to the sprint store to see if they can get it going and they couldn't.
They tried a prl/profile update and a hard reset its a no go, They also tried ##72786# code and the phone won't activate the MSL screen even ##DATA# won't work. They said they never seen this issue before and said I need a replacement (Refurb).
I don't want a refurb! Is there anything I can do to fix it...Im 100% stock with the new OTA update.
this also happened to me- I had to get them to order me a new one yesterday... Also from what they said, they still are sending out new ones as replacements here..

Are you rooted ? If so try a full wipe or try running an ruu.

Activate Device
Mine was doing the same thing after a pushed PRL update...scratched my head for a while figuring it out. I used "Activate Device" in settings: it took a few tries but eventually showed results. Afterward, it allowed the profile update.
Ok so my camera used to work, im s-on rooted running a rom, camera app shows up, no preview and the buttons do
nothing. So, has any one had this and was able to fix it? What did you do? Any help would be appreciated.
And im a week beyond the 30 day warranty so no trading for a new one, and I don't really feel like sending it in to HTC
just yet.

If your still within your warranty time frame you should be fine. My last EVOLTE had major antenna issues and Sprint gave me a new one, even though it was rooted. And yes the tech knew it was rooted.

Hey Buddy!
Just send it off to get JTAG before you take it out of the box I just did one that way. I picked it up and powered it on though before I stuck it back in the box and shipped it out.
Honestly I'd probably buy one outright and save the upgrade for a new phone.

The devs exploited the bootloader to get us unlocked and achieved a 1 minute s off process. Then one of the updates closed up the hole we were using basically. Everyone who ever unlocked before the update is fine. it's only phones that didn't have the CID changed (HTC-Dev hboot unlock is achieved by changing the CID from Verizon's to a custom 2222222 CID then using htc-dev.com like normal) that can't be unlocked.
JTAG accesses the service ports on the main board with a special hardware called a riif box. It accesses the device at the lowest level so locked bootloader is no obstacle. It's like what the manufacturer uses to flash the DNA firmware onto the board. So its kinda like if HTC plugged up the phone and unlocked it and turn the security flag off.
You send them the phone, they open it up, wire it to the hardware box and use the accompanying software to do whatever you need, it will even flash at a low enough level to repair a true software brick as long as its not a hardware explosion or something that bricked it.
Mobile Tech Videos is the name of a real reputable shop in Texas I've dealt with a lot. PM me for my GTalk if you want to talk to some more.

Whatever you do, don't let it update when you get it! I recommend not installing the SIM (so it can't phone home) and unlocking it first. If you're not too comfortable with using adb, I think my writeup (in my sig) explains it well enough for you to follow.
