I've got a s-off evo 3d, I was wondering if anyone knew where the data stored that tells 1.50 Hboot that it's been unlocked via HTC method?

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)
Just to be sure. When updating an s-off phone to hboot 1.50 s-on, as sprint service techs like to be sure everything is updated, you can then use htc unlock method to revert back to s-off?
No. Can't revert to older hboot...

Well this afternoon i was updated at the sprint store to hboot 1.50 with s-on. confirmed as soon as i left the store. came home to root via htc unlock and when i finished i had hboot 1.50 s-off. loaded prior ruu to get back to hboot 1.30.
Wait so you started with hboot 1.50 s-on and was able downgrade to hboot 1.30 s-off?
I thought this wasn't possible with HTC's unlock method?

I think i read that you can only do it if you had s-off prior (or something to that effect)

Actually he never asked if you could downgrade to 1.whatever. He asked if he could use HTCs method.
Yes my phone was rooted with soff prior to upgradeing to hboot 1.50. S-on after going to hboot 1.50. Once I used HTC unlock method my phone was back to s-off and was able to downgrade hboot. Not that it was needed since it was s-off anyways. My intention of the op was to check and verify that this was the status quo of everyone who updated after rooting via revolutionary.

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 have an htc evo 3d gsm. I got s-off using the wire trick then downgraded my bootloader. Now my hboot is 1.49.0007 unlocked with s-off. I was wondering how I could revert my phone to stock.
Thanks!
relocking the bootloader and running the appropriate RUU will get you back to stock but your bootloader will show relocked and s-off

Need to flash RUU 2.89
Sent from my DOWNGRADED EVO 3D now Free
thank you for replying your awesome
Ive tried running that ruu.exe from the computer and got error 140 I've also tried flashing it via fastboost fastboot flash zip (file name ) and says failed to verify signiture
AFAIK there is no ruu that'll work with hboot 1.58
You need to get soff to run ruu now.
Or you need to unlock and flash recovery and fresh rom

Thanks for clearing up that a ruu won't work how would I flash a recovery and Rom and which ones will work
This guy made a guide, should work for youhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2539241
If you don't get soff you'll need to stay with stock based ICS sense ROMs
