How did you manage that
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using xda premium
I followed all the tutorials to downgrade hboot to 0007, revolutionary s-off method, installed recovery and rooted.
Then i downloaded the original rru for hboot 0007 then flashed that over the top, still left with s off and unlocked but no root, it then said there was an 48mb update for 3d games and security upgrades then flashed that,
Was left with hboot 0018, upto date radio and s-off with unlocked bootloader and flashed then clockwork touch recovery, not the shortest method but its working.
I never heard of these hboots in my life.

Where are directions for downgrading the hboot? Last time i checked that was impossible.
1. Unlock your bootloader with HTC Unlocktoken
2. Change your CID on fastboot
3.Re-Lock your bootloader
[If you already have europian CID and hboot 1.49.0018 you can pass first 2 steps...]
Yes Thats it Now all you need PG86IMG.zip on your SD card.
Download PG86IMG.zip http://www.multiupload.com/39NSAMWQU7 NOTE:it will delete all your internal memory. Before flash it make backup)
4. Put your sd Card to your pc copy PG86IMG.zip to your sd card root
5. Power off your phone.
6. Press Vol Down+Power to open hboot.
7. Let the device find the zip file and flash it.
8. Chk the hboot version now.
9. I thing I don't need to explain how to use Revolutionary tool
This isn't my work. These are just the steps I followed. The thread is in the first post.

You're good to go since you're still S-Off. Just flash a recovery and do everything you would normally.

I was on hboot 1.50 unlocked with s-off. I got a new sd card yesterday and loaded the 1.40 ruu on to it and now I'm just 1.40 with s-off. No more pink banner and I still can flash anything. Pretty sweet...guess I have a weird phone.

Dude I just asked this in another thread a minute ago. lol
I am in the same boat. I rooted with Revolutionary and was S-off on 1.40. I accidentlaly flashed a radio/firmware update that pushed me to hboot 1.50 S-off with a Pink Locked banner.
I really want to get back to 1.40.
Can you link me to what you flashed or did?
Just put the p86img.zip containing hboot 1.40 on root of sd-card and go into bootloader. It will auto-detect it and tell you to press vol. up to flash it. It's not a 'weird' phone, it's having the security flag off .
Lol I downloaded the 1.40 ruu file,renamed it to PG86IMG.Zip,put it on a different sd card,put the new sd card in my phone and ran it when it was done my phone didn't have the pink banner anymore and it didn't say 1.50 now I'm back to good old 1.40 s-off and no pink banner

Where do I find just the Hboot? I saw Haus's thread with Engineering hboot. There was a 1.4 and 1.04 version I think? Do I just grab the 1.4 version?
I am 1.50 S-Off and it says Locked.
*Edit* LINK REMOVED: I don't wanna confuse people. You must have had S-off with revolutionary first, in order to roll back off hboot 1.50
Yeah just grab the 1.40 file,download it and rename it to PG86IMG.ZIP,then go into recovery and you know the rest lol...yeah not the mirror one

If I'm reading the post done here... I think it means if you had 1.40 hboot before and used the s-off method but by mistake upgraded your hboot. You can then downgrade your hboot, I'm not so sure though! Give a try and let us know.

No, you need S-OFF to flash HBOOT 1.40 over HBOOT 1.50. The HTC Unlocked HBOOT allows you to flash a custom recovery and ROMs, but not overwrite HBOOT.
can we flash hboot 1.40 from fastboot ('adb reboot bootloader' from pc)
hI guys this is what I done.
1. Root with HTC supertool v3
2. checked bootloader still said 1.49.0018
3. downloaded the correct RUU from here for my device Europe.
4. Ran the RUU and it allowed installed the lower version
5. completed and booted into Hboot, which is now 1.49.007
6. rerooted with HTC supertool
7 And unlocked bootloader with rev tool no relock note if you want to relock bootloader.
8. Ran RUU again went into bootloader now says locked.
9. Checked OTA updates found it
10. Installed update now back to 1.49.0018 LOCKED, but by the looks of it you will be permantly s-off, unless the next update puts it back to s-on.
I am not responsible if anything happens to your device

not yet rooted but i unlock bootloader & try to s-off but not supported hboot 1.49.0018 so i try to downgrade h-boot but not success & its now hanging on htc screen & rebooting time and again so plz if u have idea
The only hboot number supported is 1.49.0007 and 1.49.0008 anything above this require HTC dev so youve done that next you need to install a custom recovery next download a Rom and flash it next you will start the process off downgrading of your hboot to any of the hboots thats stated above once this is done your ready for alpharevolutionary.io then and only then you will be able to reach the almighty and famous s off in this order
sent from my EVO 3D s off using xda premium
And remember, if you screw up anywhere during the process, you can always download the GSM RUU, relock, and flash it through bootloader.
I wouldn't advise relocking unless you're completely stumped since i dont think you can unlock again after that.
has anybody succesfully gotten rid of ***RELOCKED*** on the 3d after rooting? i went back to stock so i am s-on again but want to get rid of the relocked message.
I have a gsm model. Reflashed ruu via pg86img to older version from my carrier. Then fastboot command 'fastboot oem writesecureflag 3' and then I was back to s-on showing lock not relock
I was revolutionary s-off

Same here got the ruu from xda then run the ruu then head to %TEMP% folder in windows and copy the rom.zip then rename it to PG86IMG.zip place it on sd , boot into bootloader on phone and update. this makes your phone like brand new from factory then connect to pc open command prompt and type "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" this turns s-off too s-on after this reboot bootloader and you will see ***locked*** s-on
But to do that, you have to be s-off first.
Otherwise there's no way to flash the img via bootloader if i'm not mistaken.
I just tried it (s-on / relocked) and neither the flashing or the fastboot command works unfortunately

cant you use the revolutionary method to s-off then flash the ruu zip? then use the command to s-on again. worked for me on hboot 1.4.9.0018 this gives you ***locked*** not relocked!

HTC Warranty.I'm from Europe
ok i do have sprint...i want the locked message...not relocked.
For me on Sprint version, no matter what I did it would show relocked if I was on hboot 1.50. If i was on hboot 1.40 it was fine. So I stayed 1.40 on went s-on. But HTC may actually upgrade it and check. Not sure.
so if im hboot 1.50 and root, i could downgrade to 1.40 then flash a ruu to loose root and it will show locked in stead of relocked?
does this work if i unlocked the bootloader with the HTCDev method instead of revolutionary?? my evo 3d is GSM
Hi everybody!
I have got problem with custom roms :/ I have upgraded to ICS OTA () and then unlocked bootloader via HTC dev, then installed CMW recovery with fastboot. At that moment I had S-On, I have tried to install CM 10 and Virtuous Eclipse but they both had endless boot, so I thought S-Off would help but it is even worse - bootloop, evo restarts after ~5 seconds after bootscreen shows up. I don't know what to do I have tried super-wipe, flash boot.img from rom... Any ideas?
Edit:
Solved (second page)
OK, slow down. More info would help, is your phone Gsm?
Did you flash the new firmware?, what's your hboot ?
Can we assume your phone is s-off?!

Yup, I didn't noticed that is forum for both CDMA and GSM. It is Evo 3D GSM S-off with JuopunutBear (unlimited.io) now it says in bootloader:

I have also tried to flash CoolICS Kernel via CMW after CM 10 installing and then EVO endless boots (with rom's kernel it restarts and restarts...)
First issue looks as though u haven't flashed the new firmware pg86img, look for firmware download on first page of op, also 4ext recovery is preferred over cwm

This may be that couse I haven't flashed any pg86img but... (noob question) where can I find firmwares (what did You mean by saying 'op'?)

Ok, I have downloaded firmware into sdcard, booted into bootloader and it updated (10x "ok") but it still reboots (and endless boot with CoolICS Kernel...) Have I done anything wrong?
Do a battery pull, take it out and put it back in and see what happens, had the same issue, now b4 you flashed the ROM did u do a full wipe?

If you want to start clean find one of the available RUUs to reset to default.... (RUU_Shooter_S_Sprint) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1813818 grim has a list, linked to at the bottom
That said if everything else is failing, don't give up on custom ROMs lol.

I do "wipe data/factory reset" and superWipe. Nothing helps. I don't understand what did you mean by saying "do battery pull", when I take it out, phone will be turned off (wow), when I put it back I can again turn phone on and bootloop again :/
@crimsy
Isn't topic you linked for CDMA only?
Should I downgrade hboot to 1.49? Then, if so, is there tutorial on the forum in GSM development?
Yes, but follow the link for grims RUUs, there's a ton of RUUs for HTC EVO 3Ds

Happily it didn't bricked phone and hboot was downgraded to 1.49.0007 It is still S-off (and shows *locked*) but now, each rom is working!
