Are you gsm or cdma? But next step would be to make sure you're running the latest firmware. If cdma then flash Freezas all in one update zip then flash a rom. Again if cdma I would suggest Mean Rom 4.2 (gingerbread) or Mean Rom .09 (ICS), they are stable with everything fully functional.

Yeah your phone is CDMA. You can root your current ROM by flashing this from recovery -----> http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1046553&d=1336400579
Or just flash another custom ROM of your choice from recovery . Almost all ROMs comes pre-rooted.
If you want the latest radios and firmware by sprint , download this ---> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18734200/PG86IMG-2.17.651.5_Firmware_Only.zip and rename it to PG86IMG.zip and put it on the root of your sdcard, boot into bootloader, it will ask if you want to update , hit yes.
And if you are going to flash the ICS leak, dont flash the firmware as some members are having problems with it. Just flash the ROM without Firmware and it should work.
EDIT: Do you have working superuser or SuperSU in your current ROM?
You said you are rooted, and you also said you have S-off and nothing else

Then download the latest Mean Rom ICS (.09 at the moment), flash and profit! If you need any help or insight feel free to pn me anytime. Also the Mean Rom community is full of support not only from the dev Mike but also us users.. Someone will be able to help just about anytime of the day/night

Were the calls and texts working after achieving S-OFF and before installing the zip that I linked?
The problem you are facing is not because of the zip but i is due to revolutionary tool.
Everyone who is S-OFF faced that issue just after running revolutionary.....
It can be solved by doing hands free activation......
I am not on sprint, so just search or ask some sprint users......
Hope this helps....
Using your phone pad dial ##3282#
Select edit mode and enter you device's msl code(MSL Reader from market can get it for you). Go to Data Profile then press menu and choose 'restore". Your phone will reboot and reprovision upon reboot.

Thanks i will try that,let you know if it works
Flash 2.17 first
But now you unlocked your device into many possibilities :
-custom roms to make the phone smoother and better battery life, like viperrom
-custom mods
-overclocking your processor
-installing custom themes
-free wifi tether
You unlocked your phone. Do whatever you want. It's free from all restrictions.
Edit: I'd like to also point out that flashing a sense 3.6 (ics sense) rom requires an adsp.img that works with ICS. Basically, don't Flash an ics sense rom unless it says Sense 4.0. Sense 4.0 roms are safe to flash.

Flash the zip from recovery that I linked in my first post of this thread on previous page to root your current ROM. Then ROM manager will ask you for superuser permissions and it will work. And instead of clockworkmod and rom manager, download and install the 4ext app from 4ext.net and it will flash 4ext recovery from that app.It is a touch recovery like twrp 2.0+ and CWM 5.8.0.x.
And are calls and texts working now??

Hi,
I rooted my Evo 3D successfully and have TWRP Recovery. Now when I want to install a new update it takes me to recovery and says "Installation aborted" so I just want to remove TWRP and get the original recovery because I don't like this TWRP and it won't let me install the update. So to sum this up, How do you remove TWRP Recovery and reset it back to the original recovery.
Thanks.
are u trying to do ota update?

Via My HTC Evo 3D On The Now Network From Sprint.
well, it is a ota update and it keeps annoying me so i thought maybe if i remove twrp, update, then it would be gone.
Try this go into settings/system update/htc software update and uncheck it to see if that helps.

thanks for the help and what is new in the new ota update? i want to stay up to date on my phone and if i ever thought of updating, what should i do and can you show me how to remove TWRP without deleting anything on the phone? like i want to reset the recovery back to the original.
Well there is no original recovery for the Evo3d. That's why you have to load one on the phone to gain the ability to make nandroids,flash custom roms,tweaks,kernels etc. Once you unlock your device "via" revolutionary, htc unlock etc you have a choice between recoveries like twrp,cwm etc. Removing twrp would take away your abilities I mentioned above unless you load a different recovery. To remove twrp you have to run an ruu. Then you will be unrooted with no recovery. So basically there's no point in being rooted if you have no recovery. Also as far as updating and staying current just search the development section pick a rom and read what it include in the channel log. There are more than enough roms out that have all of the latest updates already include. If you choose a sense rom or your rom is based off of sense/stock you can just go into setting/software updates/ and update profile and prl. As far as the radio update is concerned you could update that as we'll from the same place in settings but you would have to take an ota I believe and that would result in loosing root so of course you would have to reroot again. There is a thread with all of the latest Evo3d radios in the development section that allows you to dl different radios and flash them but I would strongly suggest you read and read more before you attempt to flash a radio update or radio downgrade its the one true time were you could brick your device. But nevertheless it can be done with the right knowledge and xda just so happens to have an endless supply.
Hope this helps.

Seems your question was never correctly and directly answered.
Short answer: To switch recovery's loaded on the EVO 3D, simple, flash another recovery.img file. My application, Flash Image GUI, makes this very simple. Also, the fastboot command is fairly simple, fastboot flash recovery c:\recovery.img.
Longer more technical answer: Recovery partition is large enough to basically hold a kernel plus some extras. The kernel will contain busybox, some other needed tools and a small recovery binary which displays the menus and executes the commands.
If you want to load the stock recovery, it can be found inside of the RUU files named as recovery.img.
Keep in mind, loading the stock recovery will ONLY allow HTC signed .zip files to be flashed, which no developer will be able to produce and will NOT allow adb to run, thus preventing root shell access. Essentially, the stock recovery will lock down recovery mode.
Hope that helps!

FYI its not needed in most cases. You can run an ruu or flash a fastboot zip.also you don't need it to install the 2.17 update there are aio's with and without hboots. I have a copy of the "stock recovery" cdma as well and have never needed it to update anything.

I havent said just a 2.17 update..........OTA is the keyword here.
The OP wants to know why he is unable to install the update which is coming to his phone Over-the-Air by HTC/carrier , for which he will need stock recovery IMO.
Read the 7th post of the thread. The op asked if he wanted to update in the future what can he do. The ota issue was solved if you read the thread it was just an update notice that was bothering him. Also you dont need the stock recovery to take ota updates you can just run an ruu.

Before you flash a new rom, Find the Flash Image Gui app and use it before you flash into another Rom. But just be sure you have the Rom on your SD card before you do it because you probably wont be able to boot back in to your original Rom
What you could do is return to stock 2.17.651.5 with the RUU. But maybe reaper24 has a better suggestion soyou mighy wqnna wait for him and see what he suggest.
You guys are awesome. I just reinstalled Flash Image GUI and ran the zip throu that then installed. Working fine so far. Thanks.
Yea it sounds like u not flashing the kernel with the rom. Got to the market n get Flash Image GUI..then put the rom on the sd card it doesnt have to b n the root dir. Then open Flash GUI n nav to the rom and let it scan for tbe kernel then reboot into recovery when it prompts..then wipe then nav to the rom and select it then let it install..

You need to be S-off in order to flash an ICS ROM, unless you use 4EXT smart flash, which isn't guaranteed to work.

Frank....I think the issue is you probably installed the wrong rom version....This is very important that you install the correct rom for Evo 3d GSM or CDMA version or you would get Bootloop...I would suggest you install this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991150
and make sure you use 4EXT latest version, S-Off, Unlocked...
This rom is Viper3d Sense 4.1 and the most stable and fast ICS rom so far for GSM and CDMA......Since you have S-off and unlocked...you dont have to flash the boot.img separately....just copy the rom files to Sdcard then follow my instruction:
1)Do a full wipe (Wipe data/reset factory, Wipe cach+davik, Format partrition [without Sdcard])
2)Install from zip card,,,then choose the rom....
3)Reboot...it should work great if you do as i said.....
Furthermore....i would recommend you install Anthrax kernel....i dont know if the forum is allow me to send the link here.....??

3)Reboot...it should work great if you do as i said.....
Furthermore....i would recommend you install Anthrax kernel....i dont know if the forum is allow me to send the link here.....??

I had this issue. If every Rom you flash bootloops, you may want to run the ruu.exe to reset your phone (you'll still be s-off). Hopefully this will get your phone booting. Then flash a custom hboot (I use 1.4 revolutionary) and then custom recovery (I use 4ext). You should be able to flash anything at that point (except a select few roms).
You can get the ruu.exe and other files from the thread I linked earlier.
GET HBOOT 1.49.0007 unlocked and s-off and 4ext as recovery then it should.work with most roms!

NO, NO, NO! He's CDMA and that's a GSM hboot. Don't flash that or it'll be trouble.

Wait, is he REALLY CDMA?
I'm confused right now.
It says he's from Europe, which usually uses GSM.
-shrugs-
Well, all I have to add is if you're flashing the kernel right away, don't set the overclock value to high, that's what causes bootloops/hangs.
Set your max cpu to stock (1188 MHz) for now. Then once it boots, overclock. I find that anything fast 15XX MHz causes bootloops with new versions of kernels.
I bought it from ebay becouse it was so much cheaper (I know europe is gsm only)
do I have to run an ruu or flash hboot
And which versions of those

First i need to identify what version of phone you are using frank...do you use simcard?if yes...then your phone is Gsm...otherway is Cdma....let me know first

it is CDMA from sprint
Go to this website www.htcruu.com and make sure you install the correct ruu to return to stock rom. At first you need to lock your phone by using fastboot flash lock oem....(google how to lock your phone ) then run the ruu file...
After that, unlock your phone again. So tour phone now would be Unlocked+S-off. At thia stage,you can install viper3d rom without problem...make sure you choose ruu for sprint with ics+radio 11.77
Hey Guys,
I just bought a brand new HTC Amaze unbranded (without any carrier branding). Now I tried updating the phone to ICS but unfortunately no official ICS update is available. I have a version where I get to choose south asian languages at start up, I don't know if this would help.
Anyways, I tired rooting my phone through the following method:
1- Unlocked the bootloader via HTCDev method.
2- Flashed the 4eXT recovery via Hasoon2000 tool kit, after which I had the SuperSU app on my phone.
3- Flashed Cyanogenmod 10 Nightly ROM (Latest available on their website).
The installation was successful, however when the phone boots up to the Home screen it works fine for precisely 10secs and then it freezes and reboots and this happens until I remove the battery. However if the phone boots up to the Home page and I do not unlock the phone it would not go off, but will freeze and reboot once I unlock!!. My phone is still S-ON. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to fix it.
Thanks

Well the thing is you can't flash it like that there's a procedure you have to follow...1st you have to flash the ics ruu then you can flash any custom Rom...now flash the gb Rom again to get your device working normally then flash the ics ruu and update the hboot then flash any Rom you like if your still new to this is recommend you the ics stock Rom energy,arhd Rom learn a bit then move in to JB since it still in testing mode with minor bugs

OK there is one more thing that I tried while I was waiting for a solution, I downloaded a Stock ICS RUU and renamed it to PH85IMG.zip and then boot it to HBOOT where it picked up the file and started installing, after install it was stuck on the HTC logo. Now as per your suggestion I suggestion I should simply download a GB Stock and flash it the same way I did with the ICS RUU correct?....and would you have a recommendation which one should I flash?

Just a FYI ravike14, I already have the 4EXT recovery on my phone, if you refer to my previous post....should I install the recovery once again and then go with the method described?
Oh and I even downloaded a Shipped GB ROM for Amaze which was in a .exe format and try to flash it, but it gave me an error 107 USB something error.
