[Q] Evo3d Bricked?? hellp please! - HTC EVO 3D

long story short. i updated my Radio using an all in one zip. the update went fine, but i never removed or renamed the pc.img thing. so i went to flash the CM9 Alpha for the evo 3d and when i went to use the superwipe to wipe everything the superwipe was taking longer then normal so i did a battery pull. now i cant get no further the Hboot screen because it keeps updating my radio because i never deeted that file. is there a way to get to the recovery where i can jut rewipe and reflash again? or can i delete that damn pc.img file?

Problem solved. I pulled the sd card out of the phone and put it in my tablet and deleted the pc.img file. Phewwww

I need some help!!!!! annoying :(

i have to go to work but hopefully when i get home someone has some advice to help me! my phone wont go past the first screen on boot no matter what i do even if itry to go to a back up.. i had bamf 1.6.3 installed and i woke up this moring to the data not working again like it always happens this phone sucks.. so i went to reboot to fix it and then it just stayed in a boot loop so i went inot hboot and did a back up and it still did the same thing.. i was emailing my gf fine all nigth and stuff then woke up and data was not working nothing would load so rebooted and boot loops non stop! i have no idea why i went back the the 4th radio on adrynalins thread to see if that would help with signal last night and flashed the rom and everything worked great until this morning..
Sounds like a radio issue to me, but I'll defer to the smarter folks.
Do you have a backed-up ROM from when your phone was working that you can revert to in the meantime?
I was going to help you till you said this phone sucks. Don't blame the phone for verizons mistakes.
Oh and I have no idea what you did to get the phone to not boot past the initial screen your best bet would be to get the rooted ruu load that up and go from there. If it still doesn't boot then you have a problem.

If you can still get into recovery from hboot and you have a rom zip still on your SD card, I would do a reset, flash rom, clear cache and dalvik, then boot to see if it fixes it. If it's still looping it might be a bad flash of the radio...

So the phone doesn't even turn on now? Are you sure the battery isn't dead?
As long as you can get the phone to turn on and get it into HBOOT then you should be able to fix it. And I doubt the phone not working is because it "sucks." You ****ed it up somehow.
yea doesnt turn on at all.. i got into hboot tried loading different roms and back ups and nothing would take just looped and quit being ass hurt about the sucks comment its not like you made the phone geez.. i dont know what happened i just rebooted the phone in the morn and it looped it took me by surprise..
would a bad sim card cause the data to just stop until a reboot? cause it would happen no matter what rom or battery or kernel i tried...

Seems to me you got some excellent advice from previous posts. You got/had a radio issue. You should have been using a newer radio....like the first or second one down from Adrynalyne's Thread. You flashed the stock radio onto your phone which is probably why the issues started especially after a reboot when everything was allowed to refresh.

There it is since the previous version requires it most likely does the newest!!
I believe from past experience, that is you pull the SD card, and put it in a computer, load the rooted ruu, then hboot and the phone will wipe and install a clean Rom, you may do the factory reset in hboot also

thank you for actually taking time to give some advice i hit the button.. i was just tryin diff radios cause the signal and data problem so i guess it was the radio that did it.. thank you
Can you get into hboot?? Not recovery. If so.. Download jcase's rooted RUU/Rename it/drop it on the SD Card/boot into hboot and let it go. If hboot can't bring you back from the land of the loops, I don't know what will.

I had the same question when I started out. I'll make it easy on you.
Go into recovery, use the volume buttons to toggle up and down. Go to wipe data / factory reset. Select it and then confirm it. Then go to wipe cache partition and do the same. Then go to advanced and select wipe davlik. THAT IS HOW TO WIPE. This is recommended to do before flashing a new ROM.
Can't get past the update
I cant get past the update in recovery

That's easy to get past. Just load a PGIMG05.zip file onto the ROOT of your SD card. ROOT means without being in any folders. If you're on BAMF 3.0 then you're on Gingerbread. So find the RUU file for unsigned Gingerbread RUU and place it on the ROOT. Then do an Hboot. Which is Power down and volume up at the same time when the phone is off. Make sure you don't have any PGIMG05 files on the ROOT. You probably do because you rooted your phone. If you don't you could end up with S back on.
**You did flash the correct Gingerbread radio...right?
**I have no clue where the Gingerbread RUU is. If you find it, please post it. It will be a fairly large file. Probably around 300mb+
EDIT:
I'm sorry but the RUU for Gingerbread isn't out yet. Try Hbooting the MR1 then Hboot the MR2 Radio RUU which is 2.3.4 base.
Link to Jcase radio thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=997724&highlight=RUU
I'm pretty sure, you'll need to flash the "PG05IMG_Mecha_VERIZON_WWE_1.13.605.7_Radio_1.16.00.0402w_NV_8k_1.41_9k_1.64_release_182727_signed.zip" on that page which should be the last link.
Take your SD Card out, put in a reader or another Android phone and delete the radio file from it.

I've had this problem too and I've wiped and reflashed from scratch to fix it.
But this happens to all my backups, making nandroid backups virtually useless to me now. Anybody know why this happens? I've never had a problem like this before and it started after trying to restore from the new CM7 back to bamf 2.1....
A common solution would be to backup the SD Card and reformat it in Clockwork or with SDFormatter.. NOT IN WINDOWS.
When the house gets dirty, you have to clean it.

I have tried to format/system and every other piece of advice i can find I still cant get any nandroids to restore... Any ideas?
I have search every possible thread regarding restoring a nandroid and have tried every possible fix... my only solution, which DID WORK, was to format/system, do a full wipe of all three, and then flash the original zip, I cant use any nandroids at all!!! if any one know why please tell me how to restore a nandroid for future use. thanks
format did not work for me either.
restores worked for me at when i came off of Synergy's ROM back to bamf3.0, but coming outta CM7 to bamf 3.0 busted it again...very strange.

I am using th3orys inj3ct rom and just wanted to see what Synergy was all about, when I wasn't impressed i tried to restore my nandroid (which i made right before i flashed synergy) and that is when all the trouble started... i tried everything that I know of and just had to reflash the original ROM and start from scratch, sux but at least my phone is back on.
I had this issue over the weekend. However I did do a restore prior to getting the error... I was texting my gf, and all of a sudden my screen wouldn't turn on... Pulled the battery and when i booted up I kept getting the error.
I had a PG05IMG.zip on my SD card so if I tried to boot to recovery from boot menu it wouldn't let me.
I took my SD card and plugged it into a PC using an adapter. Deleted the PG05IMG.zip and then booted to recovery. Restored my latest backup (3 days old) and everything worked.

[Q] [Help] TWRP / ROMs

Hello,
I am fairly noobish when it comes to phones but I have had a rooted OG EVO and now i have had a rooted EVO LTE. When i first rooted my LTE i flashed the meanbean rom and then a few months after that i decided to try out other roms suchs as CM10, Paranoid, and maybe a few others that didn't last too long. I just tried to go back to meanbean and it loaded about 75% and was just stuck. I let it sit there for about 45 minutes and nothing ever happened. I forced a restart and restored to a previous backup. When my phone booted up I noticed that it was acting funny and I later found out that some how my internal storage device was messed up. I eventually mounted my phone to my computer in TWRP and reformated so it now works as it should. I went to try and flash meanbean and it again freezes at the same spot. When i try to flash another ROM my phone beings to flash it and then it will randomly restart back into recovery. I have no idea why it is doing this. I tried to run my phone's RUU but my computer wont find my phone connected to it. When i try to use HTC Sync it also will not find my phone.
Sorry for the wall of text but at this point I am wanting to just start over completely fresh bc i feel that all of this flashing, restoring, and reformatting has really messed up my phone. Currently my phone has issues with it's calls. I sound as though i am very far away and I have never had this problem before so i am not sure where that issue is coming from.
If anyone has any kind of advice on what I should do please please help me! I can post any kind of information or clarification that is needed.
Thanks a ton in advanced!

I am not. When i try to flash the newest version from bootloader it says, "Current version is newer" (or something similar to that) and then it will just boot loop in bootloader until i delete the zip from the sdcard.

Not sure what's happening. (Sort of urgent!)

Well let me explain my predicament. The other day I flash somex's something explosive rom after a wipe of the everything I need to wipe ( Data,Cache,Davlik) When it was finished flashing I got to rebooting. I ended up with a blank, yet illuminated screen ( if that makes sense) I waited about 20 minutes. After coming to the conclusion that the ROM doesn't work I did another wupe of everything needed. Then i flashed JoseGalre's ROM since it has aroma it told me that it had an error and coundln't finsih the instalation. I wiped again and reflashed, same error. I wanted to see what would happen if it let it boot up w/o recovery and it ended up in a boot loop. I tried to go back to 4ext and it seemed to load up just fine but half way through the startup it ends up back in the bootloop. I ran Hasoon's all in one kit and flashed TWRP and it worked just fine until I flash a rom. It seemed to be working just fine then it suddenly crashes and we're back in the loop. I've been trying to fix for the last few days but to no avail. I marked the title as urgent because my parents are going out of town for the weekend and I really need a phone. They havn't a clue that it doesn't work becausse they get home before me. Any help would be appreciated a great deal.
I've had something similar happen and freaked out my phone was down for half a day.
Try booting into the boot loader by holding vol down and power boot into recovery, wipe everything then format everything except SD card and try restoring a backup. Hopefully you made one or two in the past.

I don't think you wiped properly. You needed to format ALL PARTITIONS. I can't stress that enough lol.
Edit: Go into bootloader first. Hold volume down then hold power as well. Choose recovery and format all partitions. If that works you're good! :thumbup:
Use the toolkit and flash 4ext. And make sure whenever you flash Roms that you format all partitions.
If that doesn't work you need to flash a RUU, get it back to stock, it will still retain S OF. Then flash 4ext again. Your problems should be fixed for sure if my first method doesn't work.

So i changed the name of the RUU i download to PH85img.zip and use the all in one tool kit to flash it. The black htc loading screen came up. I waited until it finished and then the bootloader came up with a list of things it head to unzip and then load. After all of that was finished it gave me an error. After reading a message that you should get an error ( i now realize this was at another stage) so i though nothing of it and rebooted. A black screen with 4 warning triangles came up. I let it load all day and when i got home i plugged it back in and I noticed it looked like it was unplugging after securing the charger in I came the conclusion that it wasn't holding a charge and dying on the battery. Normally I would leave it alone but when you plug in the charger it turns itself on. I've began living with the fact that my phone is bricked. But any help would be appreciated.
BTW is there a way to get data (music pictures contacts) that were saved on the internal storage?
Probably should have gone with full caps on the PH85IMG.zip
It's easier just to put the zip on your external sdcard and gone in to bootloader.
