I tried my hand on rooting my Evo 3D. Was successful using revolutionary, but i kept getting error messages so i wanted to put it back to the original way it was.
I did the updating of the ROM through the Shooter Shippoed ROM, i have the drivers installed, and now it's stuck at the HTC screen with triangles on the corners.
When i run the ROM update utility, the update doesnt finish and says, "ERROR [152]: IMAGE UPDATE ERROR". So i proceed with the recovery process, but it still goes through the same thing.
I can't get to Recovery Mode either (through vol down+power)
Help?
BTW, It's GSM.
By recovery mode, do you mean fastboot? Or will it fastboot, but not go into recovery?

It won't load the fastboot, so i can't go to recovery options. Basically, when i turn it on, it's stuck on that black screen with HTC and triangles on the corners.
When you plug it to a computer, do any drivers come up? Check device manager in settings system on the comp.

I installed the drivers, then when i plug it in the first time, it recognizes it but when i unplug and plug it again, it doesn't recognize it anymore.
well when it does come up, try going to sdk tools in command line and run "adb devices" and "fastboot devices" if fastboot comes up, you can probably load everything through there.

once the phone boots into the bootloader you have to press the power button to select fastboot from the menu (vol +/- are used to scroll). this will put the phone in fastboot. if your usb connection is detected it should display "fastboot usb" on your phone after a few seconds.
what software version do you have? If it is 2.11.605.9 then there are extra steps need to get it.

If you are on the system version stated above use this http://www.cd-net.net/dev/Joomla/index.php/projects/htc-thunderbolt-hacking to root.
Thanks I'll try it

Another option disconnect the phone from the USB and reconnect it after a few seconds. Might have to power cycle the phone also.
Solution to "waiting for fastboot"
I just ran into this same problem, nothing I could find would work. I was using the thunderbolt all-in-one solution to root my phone and was stuck on the revolutionary step. If I power cycled and booted into recovery and selected fastboot, the phone would say "fastboot usb" for a moment, but then it would just say "fastboot". Finally, I found a solution. With Revolutionary stuck at "waiting for fastboot...." I did the following:
* uninstalled the HTC drivers
* reinstalled the drivers
* power cycle phone and boot into recovery
* select fastboot
again it said "fastboot usb", then toggled to "fastboot", but then windows gave me a message telling me that a device driver was installed, and it togged back to "fastboot usb". revolutionary was then able to find my phone and go to the next step which was... booting into fast boot (once moar). again it hung here, and I had to repeat all of the above steps.
after this I was able to install CWM successfully, and use the all-in-one tool to install the super user program.

Try running the tool on administrator. Also when you connect the device before you start the process and you get the prompt to run HTC sync don't touch it. Don't close or allow the dialog just leave it be until the tool is run.

Great idea, thanks. If I root another tbolt I'll try this out.
So i finally got rooted and flashed the 2/13/2013 version of the Supercharged Hatka ROM to my DNA. But i can't get the Wifi to work and for some reason, I still can't do any commands from the prompt. I've tried to install the drivers multiple times and when I plug my phone into my computer, it says either "device drivers could not be installed" or "the usb device is not recognized." If I try to boot into bootloader and get to recovery from there, it flashed the "HTC Quietly Brilliant" screen and then just goes right back to the bootloader. If I try to get to the recovery from the long press power button>restart>recovery, it just reboots the system. I need to either fix this Wifi problem, or get back to my stock ROM and retry but I need to get to recovery. HELP

Same story here, except the only thing not working for me is WiFi. And of course, can't ask the devs in their thread due to low post count. Good luck friend, I may try the newest release before jumping ship. Damn shame though, I like the ROM.
If WiFi is not working that means that you didn't flash the boot.img for the kernel.

Okay, but I can't do any other work on the phone because my computer says that the USB device is not recognized. It sometimes says that it is working like normal and I can reach the root and everything but then it will just cut out and say that it isn't recognized.
I couldn't quite tell what all your problems are, but it sounded like you are having trouble getting fastboot to work on your current rom, so you can't flash the kernel to get wifi to work.
If you are still s-on, and can't get fastboot to work so you can flash the kernel, you can buy the app ($1?) "Flash gui" which will let you flash the kernel while booted into the rom. You can also use flash gui to reflash cwr or twrp recovery.
Obviously, the better option is to get your driver situation resolved so you can not only flash the kernel, but also get s-off

Can you get to fastboot? With phone off hold volume down button down while pressing power. You will be in hboot. Hit power button to get to fastboot. Plug usb to pc, does highlight in red change to "FASTBOOT USB"?

I can get to fastboot and "fastboot USB" comes up when i plug into my computer. The problem is, my computer says that the "USB Device is not recognized." If i go to my computer, my phone's storage isn't there. My phone charges when plugged into the computer but it doesn't not seem to want to recognize it. Recently, I got it to recognize for a good period of time, enough for me to start to relock my bootloader and unroot, but when I went to enter the "fastboot oem lock" command, it just says "waiting for device" and it never does anything.
I messed up I know I did but please help me! I have an HTC One X+ (AT&T) and currently I'm at a dead end. I tried to install and flash Cyanogenmod 10 but my phone did not boot up. I panicked and wiped the whole SD like an idiot to get the ROM off. But now I have no OS to boot up in and no Roms in my SD to Flash. My PC no longer recognizes my phone is connected when in TWRP. So I've tried multiple ways like Side loading or using the ADB Push command but nothing seems to work. I've heard if you have an OTG Cable you can stick a Flash Drive directly in and transfer the ROM on that way. Any help is appriciated!
As far as i know, USB on the go only works when Android is booted. Even if you wiped the device it should affect your device being recognized in recovery. Are you sure you have all the drivers installed?

I'm almost 100% guaranteed I have the correct drivers. HTC Sync boots up whenever my phone was plugged in (When it had an OS) and let me access the phones files. Is there any other methods of pushing the ROM.zip in the CMD? Thanks for the reply BTW.
Your best bet is sideloading. But sometimes it takes ages before your device is detected in recovery... If i was you i'd boot into recovery, connect to your PC, then go make something to eat \ go for a walk \ have a game of COD ect lol Come back in 15 mins then try sideloading.

uninstall htc sync, it messes with adb\fastboot.
uninstalling htc sync, won't uninstall the drivers
Hey, well I finally got the ROM onto my device but now comes a new issue. The phone will not boot after I install the ROM. (I've tried multiple Roms just to see if the one I chose was incompatible). No ROM is working. Here's what I'm doing.
Open boot loader
Select fastboot
Go on my PC and type "fast boot flash boot boot.img" in CMD
Then I go into recovery mode (TWRP)
Clean the dalvik-cache and cache
Go to install
Install the rom
Reboot the device
Sits in boot screen "Htc quietly brilliant"

Hi
I have an AT&T HTC ONE that is stuck in a bootloop. I can go into fastboot mode but not my recovery. I wanted to try to reflash the recovery but whenever I try to flash it on my Win 8.1, it says waiting for device. However, the prompt "adb devices" does not detect my phone.
!) I have installed SDK Tools.
2)I have HTC sync installed for the drivers.
3)I have the recovery image
Any help would be great.
Side Question:
If I factory reset and reinstall clockwork recovery, will I still be able to access my back up or does factory reset wipe everything???
Thanks.

Yeah, I got my roommates computer. Installed HTC SYNC, SDK Tools, used USB 2.0 drivers and the phone was not detected.
Could I have possibly installed SDK tools incorrectly???
So long story short my cousin tried to flash the SlimKat ROM the other day and somehow managed to soft brick his phone. Now it gets stuck on the splash screen of "HTC Quietly Brilliant". I thought it would be an easy fix by sideloading a new ROM by adb but that didnt work. I can get it into bootloader (1.44.0000) and fastboot but the real problem is that the computer doesnt recognize the phone at all. I uninstalled and reinstalled all the drivers and have tried 2 different computers and 3 different cables. I can get it to say fastboot usb but whenever I type a fastboot command it gets stuck "waiting for device" and when i type "adb devices" it doesn't find any device.
Has anybody seen this or have a solution?

So now it finds the adb device, but when i do
adb sideload (filename).zip
It only comes up with a list of available adb commands. Am I not doing the command right? As far as I can see the phone has no /system partition and it cant mount /external_sd to install the old ROM zip from the sd
U have to move the ROM into the adb.exe folder, rename the ROM into ROM.zip

Thanks for the help. I ended up following the instructions from the very bottom of this guide.
