Hey guys
I have GSM UK version which had 1.20.xx stock rom and 1.49.0007 hboot. My phone was rooted and s-off using revolutionary. I updated my phone to get locale language to 1.24.xx
so does the hboot, its now 1.49.0012. My phone is still s-off but its locked.
What do you recommend guys? use HTC method but it may s-on, or flash stock RUU but im not sure if it will downgrade hboot. I only need root atm and maybe later when kernel sources get fixed I need CWM recovery.
Any help would be appreciated.

HTC Unlock method not related to S-Off or S-On. It only relates to top line : LOCKED, UNLOCKED or RELOCKED >>> I think you can safely unlock the HTCdev without fear of loss of S-Off
Thanx m8.
Now, do u think if I flash stock UK rom will I get my old hboot back??
WOOOOPY!!! flashed stock RUU and got my old hboot 0007
We envy you Scorbion! - got an asian device here HBOOT 1.49.0011 there's no way to get S-OFF atm..
I just bought this flyer 3G version It was working with 2.3.4 when i bought it.
I've searched the entire XDA forum ,modaco and loads of the other sites. Been attempting this for 4 hours straight x 3nights in a row.
I've managed to get Bootloader unlock via HTCdev but still on S-ON because my hboot is 1.11.011 Flashed the Paul obriens modified HC boot 11.11.0011 image. I got revolution CWM and i can get into it but now suddenly fail to adb into it.

I think my flyer is in limbo.
CID=044 which is the HTC Asia WWE one.
I tried: Installing some custom ROM's as soon as i achieved bootloader unlocked. Tried the latest LOeeDroid etc. BUT they all fail at the HTC boot screen. Even after waiting for 10 mins. Yes I did extract the boot.img and flashed via fastboot due to s-on but still stuck at HTC boot logo.
Ran the RUU's directly from fastboot mode (i just double clicked on the exe from my PC) -HTC Asia WWE . but they all fail on installtion/ signature. RUU_Flyer_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.48.707.4_Radio_20.3501.30 .089BU_3809.05.04.10_M_release_193927_signed RUU_Flyer_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.27.707.1_Radio_20.3504.30 .089BU_3809.07.04.06_M_release_204905_signed RUU_Flyer_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.27.707.2_Radio_20.3504.30 .089BU_3809.07.04.06_M_release_219276_signed
i tried the rom.zip extraction and renamed it to PG411MG.zip with the hope of the bootloader detecting and running it - it tried to install but failed -signature. I created a goldcard but not used this method yet as i had to format it and now i cant even connect to the PC -its as if it cant detect the device. I will try a ROM that is similar to my radio . But i cant connect to the Flyer -(adb- device not found)
Please help - ill gladly donate to a working solution. I dont know what else to do. I just want to get android working again passing the horrid HTC boot logo. i dont mind stock etc just need my flyer to work.
Been ROMing since HD2
UPDATE: SOLVED
none of the stock RUU I tried installing was successful because I had Unlocked the Bootloader.
All I needed to do was' fastboot oem lock' and it relocked. RUU will only install on locked bootloaders.
While still in fastboot I ran the RUU from my PC and it worked. Installing while tears of joy rolled down my tired eyes.
So I'm now on an older hboot and achieved S-off,rooted and made my flyer into a phone + Bluetooth.
Flash the stock rom
Get a guide on xda about it... Urs any flashing software and u will b alr9

Hi,
i unlocked my Evo 3d the HTCdev.com way, al working fine and in tried to flash a new rom through CWM recovery (LeeDrOiD_3D_V5.3.0)
Now my unit is staying in a bootloop, the white HTC screens pops up for a few seconds and boots throught to the LeeDrOid bootscreen, you hear the sound for a second and it reboots again.
I Already tried to flash the boot.img extracted from the LeeDrOid manually, but it stays the same.
Did i overlooked something? Did i brick my unit? I dont know...
The following numbers pop up when i boot in the bootloader:
***Unlocked****
SHOOTER-U PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.53.0007
eMMC-boot
Radio: 11.25.3504.06
What to do? Or do i have a fancy paperweight now?
I think its because you are trying to flash a gingerbread rom. AFAIK its not possible to boot GB on 1.53 hboot. I would suggest trying an ICS rom
So i installed Yoda's ICS v5.1 and now the unit only boots till the white HTC screen and reboots on and on...
maybe if you list the things you tried i could help you more.
factory reset and wipe cache+delvik cache before installing rom?
manually flashed boot.img?
i would suggest getting s-off to save yourself all the hassle
How do i install S-OFF when i cannot fully boot the unit?
Yes, i tried to install Boot.img manually through ABD, but issue still persists.
S-off isnt something to install. I'd recommend you run an RUU and get beck to stock. After that look in the gsm development section you will find a thread for s-offing your phone. It involves the wire trick.

Which RUU should i download, which one do you recommend? And i can do this while connected with Fastboot, isnt it?

I had the very same issue, see my post here for some help http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897719
I think your hboot is the key; if your unlocked through HTC while on a GB rom then you are limited to GB roms, if you want ICS, you need to re lock, ruu the stock ICS rom, then unlock, then install the custom ICS rom.
I'm no expert but that seemed to fix my issue, i did take the extra step and get S-off, so i truly get full control of my phone.
His hboot is 1.53 which means he did update to ics. Relocking his bootloader and running an RUU should get him to boot into stock rom. Then maybe he can s-off.
There are so many people with 1.53 hboot having problems with every single rom. I didnt take the ota for this exact reason. Revolutionary hboot hasnt given me trouble with any rom.

I just checked the unlimited.io (JBear) website and their modified bootloader for the Evo 3D GSM on ICS is 1.53.5353 so it seems like they support the wire trick with the ICS update, but I agree that it would be better to start by flashing the ICS RUU.exe then HTC unlock and root before doing JuopunutBear.

Pls help
(im on HTC One X and cid is HTC_Y13)
I got a Evo 3D GSM with bootloop(restart)..
I tried flashing few custom roms via CWM,, but no luck..
CID is HTC__102 (GER) , Main version is 3.28.401.1
Help me to find the correct RUU..
I tried "RUU_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.28.401.1_Radio_11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M_release_262714_signed", it ended up with a UNKNOWN ERROR..
Please someone help me.. I'm not familier with HTC devices..
Please someone help me out..
make sure you have the correct drivers installed for your phone. then connect the phone in fastboot and run RUU exe.
btw if you want to run custom roms then use 4ext recovery with smartflash enabled.
Did you relock your bootloader before running the RUU? The version appears to match yours.
Also, if you currently have a custom hboot, you will have to run a RUU twice, the first will put the stock hboot on but error out, the second will work correctly.
