No matter what ROM I use, it always gets stuck at the splash screen. It seems fine and then when it's supposed to boot, it freezes. This really sucks. I do full wipe and everything.

have you tried flashing something like format all or something like that?
I personally use the format all found under "optional downloads" here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1288054

Ya 1.5 people tend to screw up the boot part either they don't know or forgot about it and boot will either boot loop to lock up and alot think they are bricked lol tho when you brick your phone is locked down will not turn on...
If a phone still turns on it can be fixed lol... Im Hboot 1.5
I'm on Hboot 1.5. Trying stuff now.
I'm a noob so I need the actual cmd commands please
flash gui works for me but the thing is I can't get to any ROM to use it! :/

1.Place your recovery you used the recovery.img in your adb folder
2.adb reboot bootloader
3.fastboot boot recovery.img By recovery.img I mean whatever you renamed it too such if it were clockwork and you renamed it cwm.img
4.wipe everything other then SD card
5.flash rom
6.Doing it this way gives you full rights to flash and make nan backups... Just like the S-off users...
Wipe everything not your sd card .... Then flash rom should work fine...... Then reboot system...
---------- Post added at 03:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:44 AM ----------
Also if you wanna do it another way open rom on your computer take a copy of the boot img
Place boot img in your adb folder....
1.adb reboot recovery
2.Wipe everything other then SD
3.adb reboot bootloader
4.fastboot flash boot boot.img
5.go into recovery and flash rom
6.Enjoy

Dude so you relocked your phone? Before you did that you are suppose to wipe then relock lol.....
I know what the problem is and how to fix it You need to download this ...... and run it only way I know how to fix the issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1334473
If your CDMA download the latest RUU 2.17 exe and run this while your in Hboot this will throw you stock... Which you can turn Debug on then unlock your phone again with that unlock code you have....
You need to have a recovery cwm works fine the 4.0 version of it.. Then follow those other steps I sent ya...
I know this works cause I had to go back to stock today to fix my wireless lol I was stuck on 1X hell today had to unroot and go stock to fix my issue....
Nevermind I got into recovery with phone unplugged then plugged it in, used adb commands, wiped everything, flashing rom now. Will update in a minute.
Well I probably didn't wipe before I relocked. So how do I unlock again
?

Are you relocked? I am stumped on how your recovery is still there I relocked mine and my recovery was nowhere to be found...

I just did it like always lol. When it was plugged in I couldn't. When I tried it just rebooted. But when I unplugged it, just selected recovery, and it worked fine lol
rom flashed fine btw thanks a lot for the help man now how do I re unlock this thing ha!
Oh nevermind, ,.... it's unlocked?!?!?! that's how I got into recovery LMAO! I guess the second time I tried to unlock it, even though it was frozen at the HTC screen it still unlocked.

Nice that was a bit confusing but glad your back up and running man.
BTW what rom do you recommend to use launchers. I use launcherpro and I don't need sense or anything. I like to use custom lock screens, launchers, etc. I don't need themed roms. I just want one that makes your phone smooth and saves battery. You know what I mean?>

Right now I have been messing with Fresh Rom sense based on the 2.17 update...
You can try R82 virus rom eternity 3.0 it's pretty solid and looks good just by it's self you have to give it a try to see what I mean.. Tho most other themes won't play well with it unless a dev makes it work for it...
As for the other roms. I haven't really went toying with.. Been using Eternity 3.0 for along time.... The nightlys
Since I unrooted today to fix my 1X hell I went and unlocked my phone again and threw fresh on to take a break on flashin
Tho both of those roms give great battery life and speed Fresh by flipz is stockish .. Eternity is already themed looks great and runs smooth battery life is great also...

I bought an evo 3d from a guy today off craiglist and he gave it to me with MIUI loaded onto it. So I figured no problem I will just restore to factory and do what I want to do rooting wise from there. I did a factory restore but it is still running MIUI and I don't know how to get it uninstalled and back to factory. It is running HBOOT 1.50 so I tried to flash a new rom via fastboot-->recovery even though I know that wont leave the rom completely working right but I was just trying to get rid of this MIUI rom. It said it flashed correctly but nothing changed on reboot it is still running MIUI. He gave it to me with the HBOOT unlocked already. Is there anyone that can help me getting a different rom, preferrably one as close to sense as possible running on this thing? I never ran into problems like this with my EVO 4g. Thanks to all!

If already unlocked, using fastboot to get into recovery and flashing from there should have worked.
I would fastboot oem lock the device. Then running an ruu to get to stock. Wipe the entire sd card. Then follow htc evo hacks guide to root/unlock. Hboot 1.5.
That will unlock it again and give you your recovery. (I would probably use twrp instead of cwm if I were you).
Once done with that go ahead and flash su and make your nand backup. Should be good to go after that.

If you relock the device, run the RUU first, then fastboot oem lock. You should try the superwipe tool located in the development thread under InfectedROM Eternity, Then try flashing a ROM. There are a few ROMs that are pretty stock, including a basic sense ROM with very few alterations. Head over to development and check them out.

yeah I did a factory reset by going through menu-->settings-->about phone-->factory reset and tried factory resetting through recovery mode but as soon as it boots it looks like it has been reset. Unfortunately after I do the touch android character to continue options (sign into google, etc) it just goes straight into miui rather than how a factory evo 3d should look which is running gingerbread. Its so frustrating.

Doing a factory reset is not the same as wiping.
You need to do a full wipe from recovery. Boot into the bootloader by hooking your phone up to the pc, navigate to your adb and fastboot folder and type:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Then type:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
Once in recovery flash the superwipe.zip I mentioned before, then flash a ROM.
Check out this thread for information on how to get fastboot and adb, where to put them, and everything else you need to know about flashing with 1.5.
Then, before you do anything with your phone, look here for the superwipe.zip

thanks. im still having a problem cause the phone is running TWRP recovery and the bootloader is unlocked but he wiped the SD card so all the files that should be on it after the unlock and flash of the recovery are gone. Im having a huge problem trying to get this MIUI off the phone. I just want to get it back to running a stock rom so I can activate it on my line and I am not too good with this whole unrooting stuff. Is there a simple way to do it? I tried going through fastboot--recovery then flashing the superwipe but it just ended up causing the phone to be stuck on the white screen on reboot with the green HTC.

After you wipe the hone you need to flash a ROM. When you wipe the phone it is completely blank.
Are you just doing a factory reset and rebooting? If so, that won't get you back to an HTC ROM. You need to wipe and then flash a new ROM. That will get you off of miui.
So you flashed the super wipe and then didn't flash a ROM? You have no OS loaded on your phone. Download a ROM, put it on your sd card, and flash it. Make sure it's a sense ROM since you'll need to be on a sense ROM to activate it. No need to unroot.

No I used superwipe and then flashed clean rom 2.9.5 but it got stuck on the white screen on the reboot.
Do I have to use adb to run fastboot and then go into recovery or can I turn the phone off, boot into fastboot by holding power, vol down and going into recovery?

Since you're on hboot 1.5, you either need to flash using joeykrim's flash image gui app, or you need to put your phone in Gaynor, plug into the computer, and from the command prompt on your computer boot your recovery image. It's something like fastboot boot recovery.img. You will need to search for the exact command. Once you boot into recovery using that method you will be fine, just use recovery like normal. If you don't use one of those two methods you won't be able to flash the boot.img, so the phone won't boot. Good luck.

i started i started running mik runny yesterday. I dont know if it was somethign with the rom but. I just updated my prl on dfs and once i went to reboot it wont go past the white htc screen and just keeps bootlooping. I cannot figure it out. Ive wiped everything muiltiple times. my nanadroids do the same thing. New roms too. I even did a factory reset. i dont get it My recovery and fastboot still work though. any other suggestions?
Flashed a new recovery img. i was using twrp2.0 i flashed twrp 1.3 to see if i had any luck with that but no dice. Im downloading the latest RUU now and hopefully that will fix it. Im guessing if it doesnt then something happened to my phone. If im not mistaken flashing the PG86IMG will flash allthe partitions so there would be no reason for it to not work unless of course something happened to the hardware?
Btw Hboot 1.4 and running mikrunny when the bootloop started. Im super confused since it booted fine for me numerous times. The only thing i changed before this reboot was prl and i turned fastboot off earlier. one other thing im downloading RUU_Shooter_S_Sprint_WWE_2.17.651.5 radio 1.00.1216 this isnt going to affect my hboot once flashing right? even if i have to re root thats fine i just dont wanna get stuck in 1.5 prison

well im kinda stuck now. I tried to run the ruu for my hboot version and on step 11 system it failed to unzip. so now i have s off still but no recovery. Im gonna try to put cwm back on my sd and hope that it flashes and see if i can get some rom to flash. I cant figure this out i feel like a newb again. fml. Does it matter that it wasnt the first time i booted into the rom for it to be a bad flash like that?
well i think im officially bricked. I ran an older ruu and it failed to unzip system so after much searching i decided to run one of the latest pg86imgs it fully updated succesfully but still bootloops at the htc screen. So now i have a locked hboot 1.5 with s-off. I gotta get some sleep and see what i can do tommorow. from evreything i have read they say im not bricked if im able to do what i have. but i dont understand why nothing will work.

Sup man your not bricked don't worry or even soft bricked lol.
You should of waited on that updated zip reason it's boot loopin or lockin up is due to the phone never got wiped before the update....
Here is the CWM that will work for you. You need to put the img in your platform tools for ADB. Rename the img file to cwm then plug your phone in while in hboot. Type fastboot flash recovery cwm.img this will put the recovery back on your phone man.
In CWM you can mount your phone and copy a rom you downloaded off xda. Take the rom you downloaded open it up on your computer make a copy of the boot.img place that in your platform tools folder. Now mount your phone using CWM copy the romwhich will put it on your sd card. Now wipe everything. Then while in ADB type : adb reboot bootloader this will take you to hboot again now type fastboot flash boot boot.img this will flash the kernel for you. Now go back into recovery and flash your rom.
You should be good to go man. Let me know if you have any questions.
This should get your phone working...
The good thing about the 3vo is dat its unbrickable just always keep a Rom u ones work an always erase scrub thing / factory reset cutting shortcuts don't work in rooting/dev world

Ok so now that i ran that ruu that changed my hboot to 1.5 is that gonna affect how the cwm installs?even though it says s-off. Also for some reason im having trouble running any commands for fastboot. Ive followed a bunch of guides made sure the envinronemtal variables were correct ect, ect but none of the adb commands will work. Maybe its my pc idk.
Since i cant get fastboot to work on my pc do you think i would just be able to reinstall clockworkmod by renaming it on my sd like you do to root in the first place. Then use it to wipe and then try reflashing?
U might have to re unlock it if ur 3vo says locked at the top if not u should have no problem

I was able to re run the pg86img with the 1.4 hboot now im back on hboot 1.4 still with soff and doesnt say locked anymore. I also was able to install recovery again but i used twrp 1.3 since none of the download links i could find were good and the ones that were good were disk img. I tried running virus superwipe tool and reflashing a rom again to see if anyhtign changed but it didnt. i really just wish i could get the commands to work to use fastboot and adb.
One thing i just noticed in recovery i went into mounts and system and data were unmounted and cache and sdcard were mounted. Do i need to mount everything and try again or was that the way it should of been?

I read about the 1.5 with s-off issue a while back when hboot 1.5 first was released. As long as you have s-off, it doesn't really matter what hboot you have. You'll be able to flash entire ROMs (kernel included) in one step just like you could before your issue arose, because you have s-off. I sadly don't have enough experience with fastboot to be able to give you an easy guide to flashing cwm onto your phone though, but I hope this helps you at least somewhat.
EDIT: I just realized everything I said now doesn't matter since you're not on hboot 1.5 anymore...sorry about that. reaper24 gave you a link to cwm 4.0.1.4 in post #8 in this thread. Stop using TWRP 1.3, there's already a TWRP 2 specifically for EVO 3D and even the latest TWRP has been having issues. CWM has been completely stable for me on every HTC phone I've ever used (Hero CDMA, EVO 4G and now currently the EVO 3D). CWM 4.0.1.4 is in post #8 of this thread as an attachment (it's a small link in between reaper's post and his signature)

However i did get qtadb to work on one of them im able to run all the same commands from the shell on it correct? nevermind on this i dont think this is made for that i may be wrong though.
If so i can flash recovery img then flash new rom boot img ect. .. i was told i have to do via pc in order to flash the boot partition cause thats whats causing my problem.
I have all the paths specified on my pc and everythign i need in my tools folder but cant cd to anyhting. i have read and read and read im pretty sure i have it all setup right but everytime i cd it says path not specified or not a batch file or soemthing.

i know right. I think what it might be is something i saw earlier about since i flashed the PG86IMG and it took revolutionary off my hboot that i no longer have fastboot. I tried to run some other commands and got the same thing. So for the hell of it i tried to run revolutionary from hbootand fastboot and it just waits for device. But then when i reboot the phone it will recognize it, but it doesnt stay long enough to run revolutionary.No i just have to remember which pg86img it was that made my phone just stay at the white screen so i can run revolutionary. lol
Alright so everything was great i was using viper rom on my evo lte, i had been having trouble flashing kernels. I tried some app that would do it, flashed one and now im ****ed. this thing just won't boot up at all it goes in between the (htc quietly stupid) splash screen and the one that you see as you load recovery. (with like the little red writing crap) just back and fourth thats it.... i can access my boot loader and recovery, so far ive wiped the hell out of it, formated the internal card, and tried installing countless different rom. all do the same loop thingy.
PLEASE HELP, ILL TRY ANYTHING!!
Im unlocked with s-on
and hboot-1.15.0000
if u can get into bootloader then wipe and restore your backup.. if u can get into booloader then u should be able to get into recovery from there go into recovery wipe and restore ya backup and u should be good to go.. wipe data.. wipe system.. wipe cash.. wipe dalvik cash
I'm in the same boat except it had nothing to do with kernels... Just all of a sudden everything stopped working... Nothing flashes correctly... Md5 sums never match for restores... If I mess with it long enough twrp stops recognizing my internal SD... I've had to ruu like 3 times because of it... I've tried different recoveries... Countless different wipe methods... Nothing works... I'm lazy panda s-off... Tried both twrp 2.2.1 and even tried clockwork for awhile... After running ruu I re-root and flash either recovery and as soon as I wipe and flash a Rom I'm stuck at the splash no matter what Rom... So with that said I'm stuck with stock for now... No fun stuff anymore...
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
thats why!! clockwork recovery is no good for this phone!! your not supposed to use it..
But as I said I was getting the same problems with twrp... And the internal SD problem happened using twrp... It doesn't matter what recovery I use... I've used both superwipe zips or just plane system wipe within twrp and every time something screws up and I get stuck at the splash screen having to run the ruu bootloader zip just to have a working phone...

Lol don't do that, I'm sure you would regret it. The important thing is that your problem is completely solvable so don't lose hope. Did you take a look at the thread I linked you? If you have the sdk installed you should be able to flash a new boot image, which would be much better than going the RUU route in my opinion.

Try going into recovery from the bootloader and then try the "adb devices" command. I've noticed that I can't issue adb commands while in fastboot also...not sure why. If you can get it to display your device while in recovery, then you know your communication is good. Go back into fastboot and you should be able to do the "fastboot flash boot" command, but rebooting with the adb command will not work for some reason. After you flash the boot image, there should be an option to reboot on your phone that you can select with the volume keys.

Hi folks,
I have a HTC Evo 3D from the UK bought sim free, rooted it with s-on and tried to install a rom with 4ext, got stuck in bootloop, tried clearing cache but it never worked, tried a few different roms (not the best idea) and failed loads, the back up I used successfully before stopped working and in a mad attempt to get anything working I managed to stop 4ext as the recovery and its now CWM Recovery v4.0.1.4. It doesnt boot loop it just stays on the HTC screen without doing anything else.
Is there anything I can do?
I have tried the shipped RRUs but run into an error each time, probably since I am just guessing at which I am supposed to be using, is there a way to figure it out? Or a rom/cwm way or a way of getting another backup/restore file?
Any help is very much appreciated, I shouldnt have been allowed the USB cable! lol
Thanks

4ext recovery is the choice for s-on users so using cwm is a bad idea. You maybe experiencing bootloops on 4ext because you may have not had smartflash enabled. S-on users cannot flash kernels through normal means through recovery like s-off users can. With smartflash this is possible. So my suggestion is to reflash 4ext through fastboot and enable it if you havn't done so and do a full wipe of your phone and reflash your rom and see if that work. As for the ruu's. You have to have your bootloader relocked to flash them. You can flash them through bootloader if they were signed by htc but if not, you will have to run the ruu exe on your pc which still ofcourse needs the bootloader to be relocked.

Did you type the command with the exact name of your recovery file in your folder? Also do you have HTC sync installed? If so uninstall it. It will interfere with fastboot.

Are you sure your bootloader is completely unlocked? Sometimes when you apply the unlock bin code the unlock screen doesn't show up with Ics. What kind of output do you get when you type the fastboot flash recovery command? There might be a clue. Well in any event I'm going to trouble shoot your problem. If you could copy and paste the input and output of your command that will help alot.
---------- Post added at 11:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 PM ----------
Edit: let's try to get your phone back on stock and unlocking your bootloader instead. I read your post about how your having trouble flashing ruu. The first question is, is your phone branded or unbranded? Depending on either you will have to find an ruu exe file based on the region and carrier if branded. Just google it up. Next your phone will have to be in relocked state if your bootloader says unlocked. Type fastboot oem lock to relock it. Now you can run the file. Remember you must have the right on or it won't take. Remember after you unlock it again it will erase all your user data. Let me know if you succeed or not and then we can proceed from there. Oh yeah here's a link you might want to read up on about the whole ruu thing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1655832
Pretty sure its fully unlocked, I was able to run superSU, install 4ext and busybox etc.
I have got 4ext working again, the problem appears that the two recovery.img files I had tried were not the correct version for my phone, I've got the right one now and can boot into 4ext through the recovery option.
Okay, now try to flash a sense Rom like cool sense and let me know if it boots for you

Hey everyone,
So I have successfully HTC Unlocked my Rezound bootloader, installed Amon Ra, and then installed and booted the CM9 unofficial. Problem was that CM9 wasn't quite as cooperative as I'd hoped - it is unofficial, after all, and so I decided to abandon that in favor of Nils' Business ROM. Here's where I ran into issues.
I have tried everything in every order I can find online and think of, including Nils' writeup. So, for the life of me, I cannot get the leaked ICS RUU to boot (4.03.605.2 as listed in his instructions on XDA). Install runs fine every time I do it from the relocked (I checked) stock HBOOT, all steps included. Every time it reboots (and I've tried forcing it back into hboot to do the install a second time) it just goes to the white HTC screen and starts boot looping. Tried it a million ways, no go. Also worth noting - the stock recovery doesn't install properly, either. Some'fin is hinky, here.
So I've tried just "assuming" it went fine anyhow and then proceeding with the install for Nils' ROM and same deal, no go, although with one difference. With Nils' ROM, it does display the boot splash screen "Nils Business ROM" or what have you about 1 out of every 4 "boots" in the loop cycle, and then reboots again.
I think I am going to perform S-OFF tomorrow if I have the time, and then try it again using the S-OFF instructions, but I would sincerely appreciate any help from you all. Honestly, I'm at near wit's end with this device, and I don't want to be, I enjoy this chase too much, but I *really* want the reward at the end of it, lol.
Any help is deeply appreciated.
- Katie
Re: [Q]
I'm guessing because of the corrupted recovery, you have a bad download of the RUU. Try re downloading and check the md5 hash for a match. The ruu should reboot itself after the first pass and end up in bootloader again for the second pass.... If not then after the first pass just hold down power + vol down to get back to bootloader.
Hope this helps
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
Make sure that you have a booting ROM before you s-off. You will cause yourself all kinds of heartache if you don't.
Using an sd card reader on a pc, check md5 of your RUU zip file. If it checks out good, put the sd back in your rez and do an hboot power on and accept the update again. Report back with your findings. Also you will need to re-unlock your hboot after and install your recovery again.

Hey, thanks. Yeah, the RUU does check out just fine against an MD5SUM.

Right now, I cannot S-OFF because it requires a working stock image, and I'll be lucky to get anything more than CM9 unofficial working here.
You're too fast, now my bad post lives on...
So, when theh RUU failed, you unlocked again, flashed a custom recovery and tried to flash Nils' ROM?
Do you have a nandroid you can try to restore? Even if its the cm9 ROM at least to see if you can get it back to a working phone?

Well that's the trick. CM9 didn't work well enough to even be worth backing up. I'm trying to reinstall it again now just to see if I get there - and it looks like I will. Once I'm back up with that, I'm not sure where to go from there. The phone barely worked under CM9. Really hoping to get Nils' ROM on there, since it gives all the nice features of a stock device without the bloatware. Even if I never get S-OFF, I'll be perfectly happy with just Nils' software.
How about this... did you wipe everything before running the RUU? There's CleanWipe in the Development forum you can flash it from recovery and it will wipe everything 5 times!
This shouldn't make any difference, but there's also a different RUU, the OTA that's not global. You might try that one instead. I'm convinced that sometimes things are just voodoo even when they should be completely logical. That's definitely the case at work on the Avid systems I use.
Here's the link to it:

Your HBOOT is 2.27 and it should say relocked????
It should since you flashed the 4.03.605.2 RUU. The only RUU you will be able to flash since your S-ON is the one found here http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390034591667978440
The other RUU will fail because you can't downgrade. So the link above(The Global RUU) will that fail or completely install 100%??
If it does install 100% and boot loops still. Take out the sdcard. Boot into the HBOOT and perform a factory reset inside of HBOOT/Fastboot(NOT IN RECOVERY)

Yes, I am on 2.27 HBOOT.
Point of interest, though possibly unsurprising. When I send the lock command, it locks and reboots, but says "Failed" in my command window screen. Sure this is probably normal since the phone might just reboot before responding to the computer, but possibly an issue.
I believe that is the image I tried before, but I'll do it again both ways to be certain and report back soon! :good:

I really wouldn't see why you would need a Sense rom to get s-off. I would imagine it would just need su and busybox installed. But nandroid then try a sense rom again. Make sure you flash the boot.img through fastboot
