Shipped H-Boot - HTC EVO 3D

The unroot guides in the DEV section are for those with a non-ENG H-boot. Since I did the original root method I am on the ENG H-Boot and from reading posts in the DEV Guide you need to be on a shipped H-Boot to unroot. Is this correct and how do you get back to the shipped H-Boot?
If this does not belong here, I apologize and feel free to move it to the appropriate forum.

Search for threads started by Football in this forum. You will find the RUU for the sprint shipped ROMs. Run one and you will get a shipped HBOOT. If it's 2.08.651.2, you will get HBOOT 1.50 (the one that only htc's unlock method works for). You will still be S-off and can still flash anything you want at this point. You might be able to turn the s-flag on, but I've never done it.

[q] htc dev unlocked & s-on

Dear fellow XDA members,
I am in need of some assistance. I just got my HTC EVO VIEW 4G and unfortunately, I accidentally upgraded to Android 3.2 HoneyComb without doing the Revolutionary S-OFF, so currently I did an HTC Dev unlock on my View but it still says "EXPRESS PVT SHIP S-ON RL" and it also updated the "HBOOT-1.14.0005." I tried checking out Revolutionary website and it does not support HBOOT-1.14.0005, so I was wondering what can I do? Do I need S-OFF for anything? I currently have Clockwork Mod installed on my View but it still has S-ON so I was scared about flashing ROMS. I am trying to flash Desensed 1.5 but is scared that I need S-OFF to do so... Can anyone chime in to help me please...
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
PS: BTW, I been searching and reading and rereading.... I just don't understand..
1) You'll need to downgrade to GB
2) you'll then need to run revolutionary for S-OFF
3) you can then re-upgrade to HC S-OFF

I don't think there is anything in the tool, that globatron hasn't already written a guide for on the Flyer. And none of them are hard to do. Anything particular you are trying to do?
ive done the OTA update, and then unlocked using HTC-DEV method becasue my HBOOT is 11.11.0011 and revolutionary didnt liost that hboot as being compatible. Ive been able to install a revolutionary Clockwork mod nad then went ahead and flashed LeeDriods ROM. But now it just starts up with the R2D2 sounds, boots a little and restarts.
Ive been reading and I think it either needs to flashed from fastboot or need to downgrade to GB and relevant hboot.
Also even though I have unlocked the bootlaoder from htc-dev it still says "s-on"?
I'm in the same boat. My flyer is
Hboot 1.11.001
OTA to HC
Unlocked the bootloader using HTC method
Load CW recovery.
Can I just follow the directions to down grade?
sorry to ask people for help again.. but there are alot of guides for unlocking/downgrading/flashing etc. could someone just point me in the right direction of one guide that is applicable to my particular case?
thank you.

I don't know why people keep coming on here and asking why they still have S-On after HTC Unlock. Its never been stated that HTC Unlock gets you S-Off, it just gives you an unlocked bootloader, which is not the same thing.
If you want real S-Off, downgrade and root using globatron's guide:
htthttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1307759p://
Then you can upgrade back to HC if you want using the following guide (also by globatron, becuase he's the man). You will also need to have the HC Hboot if you want to flash a HC custom ROM, which is also described in the following guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1358758
If you want to flash a custom ROM without getting S-Off, from my understanding you can do so using fastboot. But I haven't seen any step-by-step guide. You might start reading here:

It might be just me but I don't see anything in these guides with anything to downgrade the hboot on 16gb Flyer to gain compatibility with Rev. root method. It is not for me personally but seems others here are having that issue. With those newer hboot versions is there even anything that can be done at this time?
My understanding is that when unlocked with HTC dev you can flash recovery then adb push gb hboot while in recovery then run appropriate gb ruu. Once on gb rev s off then update to hc s off

Or are there still GB Hboot versions not supported by Revolutionary?

How the hell do I root / flash this thing?

I'm looking around, and I found a One Click root that didn't work, and nothing about how to get S-OFF and flash.
What am I missing here?
Obvious troll is obvious?

Well, your missing putting this question in Q&A for one thing, Look at my signature it has a link that says[ROOT] click that to learn more, If you want S-OFF the one that says [S-OFF]. Searching always helps, thats why theres a Search button at the top right of your browser. I f you want to find somethingYouclick where it says "Search" That is all,,,
Go into the Original Android Development section?

This worked for me:
RegawMOD EVO 4G LTE Rooter (Doesn't give S-OFF but I'm on hboot 1.15)
If you're fortunate enough to have HBOOT 1.12, then I'd recommend using the LazyPanda S-OFF method.
If not, then you really can't go wrong with regaw_leinad's EVO 4G LTE Rooter.
Make sure you follow their instructions carefully.
(Just nicely saying this. I flagged a moderator to have your your post moved to Q&A. Development related threads go in this section)
~co~
Looking around I see posts like this everyday. Only hboot 1.12 has soff, hboot 1.15 and up don't, only hboot 1.12 allowed you to flash normally, hboot 1.15 and up require that you flash a kernel separately or that you flash a rom with that has the work around by xhausx. Read through q&a and read through development for what you need

[Q] jelly bean/root question

Hi guys
I am unrooted and I want to root s-off before I do the jb ota update. Let me know if I am in the right direction, in order to do this, I need to unlock/root s-off with dirty racun as my h-boot is 1.19. (dont necessarily want to flash a rom just yet). then I relock (still being s-off) do the ota, and then unlock again, and root? This is just what I have learned from reading info in the forums. thanks

Do not do it this way. You do not want the 2.09 h boot whether your are soff our not. Once you obtain soff ONLY FLASH RADIO FIRMWARE. I believe it's the first zip in captain throwback thread for the new firmware. Read before you do anything. There it's no need to ever change h boot. 2.09 gives problems even if u are soff.

Once you are S-OFF you don't have to take the OTA and the firmware you want is the file that does NOT include hboot,kernel,and stock recovery
On XHausX firmware thread it is the first file under firmware downloads and Capt_Throwback it's listed as Full firmware
Any questions shoot me a PM

[Q] S-OFF with hboot 1.11.0011?PLEASE

I've been googling from last two weeks but didn't find the solution.. I went through tons of xda posts but none of them helped.
Please tell me how s-off flyer with hboot 1.11.0011? I've unlocked through htcdev site( after giving up). Now how to s-off and then root and recovery.
HTC flyer p510e
Honeycomb stock Rom
unlocked via htcdev
(In a hope how to s-off)
Hi. Why do you want to s-off your device? If you unlocked it through htcdev.com you don't need to s-off and can install custom recovery and root it using quickroot 1.1.3. Mine for example rooted+custom ROM without s-off.
I've been said that we MUST S-OFF or else we would face bootloop or brick situation !!! Is that true? Please provide me the link where I can continue further with rooting,recovery and custom Rom installation. curretly I've only unlocked via htcdev.

Bootloop and brick doesn't depend on s-off. It depends on head and hands (and may be luck a bit). Here is the link for rooting your device (quickroot 1.1.3). It perfectly roots almost ANY HTC device. There is an explanation, so read carefuly!!! After installation you'll free to use any app that requires root. And try to install custom recoveries from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775840 and from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1413915. Detailed instructions can be found in the corresponding threads. After you install custom recovery download custom ROM for your device and flash it through recovery. Good luck with flashing .

Hi,
What I did was downgrade back to GB by flashing the stock ROM which shipped with the Flyer this can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1062184
In my case it was RUU_Flyer_BrightstarUS_WWE_2.27.1540.31_R_Radio_20.3504.30.089BU_3809.07.04.06_M_release_204116_signed
Make sure that your Device is locked/re-locked before flashing the RUU
After which my Hboot was returned to 1.11.003, I then used revolutionary to gain S-Off.

You talking about this thread mentioned above?
Its got nothing to do with your number of posts. Looks like the links were dead, so the thread was placed in the trash.
If you look around on other threads, someone may have uploaded a mirror for the RUU you are looking for, or you may have to Google around.
