I need to get this phone in a bootloop.
How can I do it?
I need to return the phone to the Sprint store because of light leakage but they said 'that's not sufficient reason for a return' so I need to bootloop it. Help me out guys, please?

^^^ That should do it.
Have fin finding one without it I would say over 90% have it
If you don't have an Evo3d well ...
just flash multiple roms without clearing caches and dalvik.... should bootloop for ya
That's bull. Tell them its a hardware defect and means the screen is improperly sealed.
That's a fine reason to take it back.

I also have this problem that when I go into teamwin recovery my search button has a dim light on it while all the other buttons are not lit on. I'm talking about the capacitive buttons at the bottom.
Do you think If I show a sprint employee that screen it will raise a flag or are they too stupid to know?
Also, I was thinking of just flashing a ROM and midway through the 1st boot I just battery pull. Does that sound like it would loop me?

If you don't have an Evo3d well ...
I have seen many threads asking how to get OUT of a bootloop, but NEVER have I seen one trying to get INTO a bootloop. lmao. So you're going to get yourself into a bootloop, and take it in rooted, with S-off and all? I wonder how well that will go over. They'll be like,"oh look, it has a software problem because it's bootlooping. Oh look at that, this thing has S-off and super user installed, guess no software warranty on this thing.". The reason I say you'd be taking it in with S-off and super user is because you'd need that to flash something to get you stuck in a bootloop....and if you unrooted it and turned it back to s on before you brought it in, that would mean you had to run an RUU, which would at the same time fix the bootloops! LOL Just demand they replace it for the light leakage, rather than intentionally trying to make it bootloop. That is the funniest **** I've seen all day!

That light over your search button is light leakage. The other buttons are supposed to be off while you're in recovery. Just deal with it. I have that problem and many other people do as well.
I don't know why you're so worried about light leakage. It really isn't a big deal. There is no point in taking your phone back for this. You're just screwing the rest of us in the long run.
It's not just light leakage. Ever since I took the OTA I get random reboots, even tho I'm using SupraROM. I'm within my 30 days, they have to give me a new one.i just tell them that doing the OTA the battery died.
Take a leak on your phone. Lightly.

I tried to turn it on and all I get is a vertical line that fades from gray to blue to red. It buzzes like it's coming on and then... nothing. Anyone else had this problem?

Sorry, I'm having a borderline panic attack...
I wasn't doing anything to it at the time - It had gone dead and I plugged it in to charge when I got home. After maybe 10 min I tried to power it up and I got the weird vertical line on the right side of the screen. I have tried battery pulls, I tried charging it fully then turning it on. I can't boot into the hboot menu. It is 100% stock, s-on. I haven't even tried temp-root on it. I'm trying to run an RUU but it keeps giving a usb error
don't try fixing this yourself! Take it back to an authorized Sprint repair store ASAP.
First of all relax, most bricks are reversible - but indeed some are not and hence you are panicking. Well if you followed the instructions as mentioned in the thread 99.9% things should have not gone wrong. But now that they have - you either need to figure out at what step did they go wrong - and what step before that step you did something wrong.
If nothing works - then run to your operator.
I took it in to Sprint. The rep was literally outraged that my phone was broke. Said it was ridiculous that I should have to come down there after only having my phone 2 weeks. Gave me a brand new one in the box, no questions asked. FYI - they said they hadn't had any other reports of similar issues and hadn't seen it before. It was just a white line down the right side of the screen and wouldn't do anything else.
Glad to hear Sprint is keeping the a good face...especially in this locked hboot era...just try not to break this one
Good to know that, and good on Sprint's part as well. Please read well before doing something tothis one.
Seriously. I didn't do anything to it. It is bone stock. I didn't accept a new OTA. I didn't drop it, get it wet, or try to run unrEVOked. I haven't even tried to run frEvo. It wasn't OC'd, UV'd, STFU'd or ROFLMAO'd. It seriously just borked itself. Or it was the pornography. I guess it could have been the porn...

Too much 3d porn is never good for any phone
You know, it is possible for the OP to be telling you guys the truth about not doing anything to his phone, and his phone just had some kinda software/hardware defect, from running the battery too low..
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
My wife's EVO 3D, completely stock, S-ON, never installed the OTA update.
The phone was on and she had it in her pocket and felt it vibrate, when she looked at the phone, it was booting up but it appeared to be stuck in a boot loop. She said she saw it rebooting itself (just the initial sprint splash screen) several times before she pulled the battery.
She re-installed the battery, but the phone wouldn't turn on. So she left it alone and brought it home.
The reboot loop was a bit concerning to me, but the phone not turning on sounds like a drained battery. So, I put it on the charger (AC power adapter) for about an hour (orange led is lit).
When I turn it on, I see the boot screen (HTC -> Sprint -> 3D -> Sprint) and then the screen goes black. The soft key LEDs are stuck on the entire time. but nothing happens. I let it sit like that for 10 minutes and it never boots. I've tried several times with the same result.
I can get into hboot (Volume-down + Power)... Almost feels like a corrupt stock ROM?? I can check the CRC, but I don't know the correct values... And no one has tried to root or flash it. I asked if she might have accidentally started the OTA update, but she says not likely...
I've searched the forums here and various others, and it seems all not-booting and endless-boot-loop issues are all due to people trying to root or flash an image.
So.... I don't have a whole lot of experience with Android... What's the next step before attempting a factory reset or bringing it back to Sprint?
Thanks!
EDIT: Typos
Wow, this is very weird. My advice is if you still have 30 day return use it or insurance, bring it to sprint. If not both call HTC and complain but I doubt they cover software issues, idk I might be wrong. Why fix it? Get a brand new one, you paid for it to be working, not broken.

You said you can do a factory reset? I'd say do that first before trying anything else. If it works, then the only thing she has to worry about is taking 30 minutes of her time to re-set up her phone.

Try removing the SD card and see if it will boot up properly. I had that happen to me once (boot loop and all). Phone would boot fine without the SD card.
I ended up having to format the SD card (connected to my PC with a card reader). That solved the problem.
This happened to my phone once. A factory reset from the bootloader fixes it good as new. It's been like a month and a half since then and I have had no problems since then.

I know! I had her not install the OTA because I had intended to root the phone... I'm so tempted to just root the thing and flash something nice, but I don't want to risk it in case it is a more serious problem and we need Sprint to replace it... Maybe if the factory reset fixes it for a couple of weeks, then I'll consider again...

Noooo, he can root and solve the problem that way. Just visit Haus's stock ROM thread, and he'll have everything there for you. A stock rooted ROM with all the OTA firmware fixes available for download. Just root first.
This is assuming you live in the U.S, and own the Sprint Evo 3D (CDMA).

Is this kind of failure a known issue with the original stock firmware? I'm not going to take the OTA to keep my options open for rooting in the near future.

Yeah.. I know not to take the OTA... I'm going to root it eventually.
I looked through the complete list of ROMs and didn't see Haus mentioned anywhere... Am I missing something?
Also, is there a common consensus on the top two or three Sense ROMs for the EVO 3D?

*14 days if bought on the 16th.
Try these things:
- Take batter off and hold power button down for like 10 secs, put battery back in.
- Download the RUU from a thread in the development section and flash it (it will replace everything back to stock).
That SHOULD fix it, if its a software issue, if it doesn't, or it still continues to act funky, just take it back to Sprint and demand a new one since you're within your 14/30 days.
Make sprint replace it the phone will be doing the so thing after resting it or trying any other trick its a software issue belive me I had 5 replacements because of software issues

I am not a newbie to rooting or at least I think that
But, my EVO 3d has been acting very wierd since rooting in december. I used the HTC method with hboot 1.5 and used reliable roms (infected, miui, mikrunny)
It has never been the same, I have to periodically reflash new roms because the phone would freeze up, ghosts start typing on the touchscreen, certain part of the screen I can't touch, pressing power button would wake the phone and start the music
I have used various recoveries (twrp 1, twrp 2.0, twrp touch, cwm 4, cwm 5, cwm touch) with most stable being twrp 1 except for the fact that turning off the phone and restarting it causes it to be stuck on the HTC splash screen.
Just to explain the severity of the situation, the volume and power button have almost been fully pressed inside the phone from starting recovery and bootloader menus, the back case tabs are broken
I am soo bogged down with the phone, that I just want STOCK HTC software with 100% reliability and nothing else.
Sounds like your digitizer is going. I had the same problem. Bring it in and they will either replace the digitizer or the phone.

OK. This might sound like a dumb question... But when was the last time you pulled the battery and left it out for thirty seconds? An all voltage clear is sometimes all it takes. Also... Do you use a screen protector?

I had the same problem with the ghost typing. the problem was the digitizer. If you have insurance on the phone then set it back to a stock ruu and bring the phone in to sprint. this is what i did and i got a new phone overnited and had it the next day.
Its as I feared I dropped my phone in water like a month after I got it on launch day, I just didnt want any bias if I told you guys first.
BUT the problem was NEVER there when I had stock HTC, it only started after rooting since december, where can I buy this digitizer?
I do have a screen protector so I'll remove that and put a new battery in, maybe it'll fix the problem

any help would be appreciated.
plug it into your computer and see if your computer tried to install drivers for QHSUSB_DLOAD if it does that means that your bricked. But you should be able to fix it using the tool below when running in ubuntu (preferably 32 bit otherwise you need to do extra stuff to download appropriate lib files for ubuntu) (you can run ubuntu from a usb, or full install but the tool will work in a virtual box)

aosp kernel same as cm10, paranoid and aokp. i wanted to flash an audio fix but never went to recovery just went to a black screen. Other phone we were using was fine with same rom and same recovery,and still no problems with the phone rom or kernel.
these phones have a built in battery, didnt know you could pull it.

The power button hold is the battery pull it simulates it at least
Your positive it was a jb kernel with a jb rom?
Did you use rom or root toolbox and accidentally wipe recovery by chance?
Thats what it sounds anyways
Best case scenario battery is dead and it charges and you can flash recovery thru fastboot. Worse case take it to sprint and play stupid customer and walk out with fresh evo and ask to be allowed to check hboot versions...yes theyll let you ive done it lol

So last night, my phone decided that it would no longer like me to use it. The screen is a full screen of (for lack of a better term) rainbow snow. It is pixelated. I can't see anything except the snow. I have gotten it to show my lock screen by kind of tweaking the phone by bending slightly. When I get the lock screen, the touch screen no longer works. I can hit the power button to turn the screen off, and then again to only get the snow. I am thinking it's probably a hardware issue. I haven't dropped it or gotten it wet. Which leads me to my next question. I am rooted and running CM 10.1. I can't get in to recovery mode to restore to a stock ROM. If I take it in to Sprint for repair/replacement will they have a way of seeing I am running a ROM and decide they wont't work on my phone?

Is it possible that you CAN get into recovery and you just don't know it because you can't see it? Work with me here.
If you can power down the phone, try powering up into bootloader/fastboot and try to flash an appropriate RUU from fastboot/usb. Just a shot in the dark...

That is a very good chance. I will give it a shot tonight. Thanks for the idea.
I pretty much have no idea what to do now. My phone won't mount the SD card on any computer. The phone recognizes the SD card, i just wont mount it. When trying to use RUU i just get the error 170. So, i guess i will be dropping my phone off at sprint and hope for the best.
Same issue. Was running Carbon which is cm based. Tried everything, nothing worked. Took it to the Sprint store yesterday and they got me a refurbished LTE. I'm thinking of getting the HTC one but can't afford it right now. Refurb phone works alright so I'll just keep it for know but I know what you're going through. it sucks and although the ROM worked awesome it may have been the culprit.

The tech thought it was a connection issue with the display, but he couldn't get it fixed and thinks the motherboard went bad. They are replacing the phone with a new one, but they are backordered so I have to wait a week.
Yeah but what caused all of our phones to have the same issue that doesn't exist on sense roms? Kernel overpowering the motherboard causing it to fry?
