I rooted my Sprint HTC Evo 4glte and everything went fine, but I then I just installed 3DChainfire app without thinking.. installed it and when the phone restarted. My Phone would go to the Pamper page and after that it goes blank.
I would turn the power on and it would make my buttons flicker and then goes back to the pamper (HTC brillantly quiet) and shutsdown or goes black.
Is there anyways to reset the phone or somehow to get the phone back to the stock settings? Thank you for your help.
Looking on Chainfire3D on Market need Root which you have but S-OFF is also needed on HTC devices. After root did you also unlock bootloader? I am certainly novice but this might be the problem?
You can run the ruu it will take you back to stock, if you made a backup nows the time to use it.

After trying to run the RUU, it is stuck at reading the bootloader. After a minute or two it will say that the port or USB is not plugged in right. I plugged it in and everything is okay. It errors. My Phone screen will load and stay at the screen saying HTC.

Unfortunely I did not unlock the bootloader.
anyone able to help me? If there is any other solutions let me know? I also wonder if I bring it back to the store will they give me a new phone or no? Thank you.
Did you relock the bootloader before trying to run the RUU?
Through fastboot:
fastboot oem lock
Thanks everyone for helping me, I was able to find the solution to fixing my HTC EVO 4G LTE. I just had to load up the bootloader (by pressing power button+volume down button+ camera button) on my phone and reset it back to factory settings. Everyone works again now! Still ROOTED so good to go!

Sir, today i tried to root my DHD running android 2.3.3 with the advance hack kit. after going through the effinn manual i started the process, it completed successfully but once the phone booted.. all i got to see was the white screen with the green htc logo. i tried to root again after some time and now the phone got WORSE. Htc logo with 4 warning signs at the corner. I tried a lot of things.. and finally installed this RUU (official) through my pc...while the screen still showed same htc logo with 4 warning signs in the corner..
RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.72.405.3_R_Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_release_161342_signed.exe .
Now my phone takes around 20-25 minutes to boot. and runs android 2.2.1 .
what do i do now? try n root the phone again with the advance hack kit or if i take it to the htc service center and ask them to re-install the software for my phone? or is there a way i can myself reset if to the factory settings?
Please. PLease help!.. this is deep mess.(for me atleast)

Thank you for you help sir. I would like to know if there is a way by which i could return to the original, factory settings. If i take my phone to a htc-authorized service center, would they be able to restore the original software?

ThANk you for your help sir. but my phone wont go into fastboot i think. Because i even checked with root check pro and it shows that my phone isn't Rooted . Also.. if my phone shuts down and i have to restart it, i press the power button and my phone starts 20mins after that.
Also, the charging light still remains for 1-2 minutes even after i remove the charger.

Go to the ace hack kit IRC they will help you. The problem is a messed up bootloader. A search would have told you this. So would have reading the ace hack kit thread
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Great!
Cause i'm stumped!
I am stuck on Locked Froyo,
"ADB reboot bootloader" just reboots regularly,
Power Volume Down boots straight to "Android System Recovery (3e)"
So, I cant get into fastboot to unlock.
I bought this phone 2nd hand.. It came this way.
I have been searching all day!
Can i update to say ICS and reach fastboot from there?
Update just HBoot?
I get no OTA updates.
Did I waste my money?
I figure if i can manually update stock first, i'll have a shot?
How do I do this?
I have no "Fast Boot" (not Fastboot) option to disable as i have no power options?
ADB finds device that took all morning...
I have flashed my old phone, my tablet, xbox360, xbox1, and psp... but this bugger...
Help?

Try This...
Not an expert by any means, but I think you are trying to get to "Fast Boot" the wrong way...
Allow the phone to power on normally...
From your Home Screen, press the menu button (right next to the Home button)
Hit Settings...
Scroll screen up till you see "Power"...
Press Power, then uncheck "Fast boot" box.
Hopefully this will help you!

First, I think you mean Gingerbread 2.3 because that is what the phone shipped with.
Second, You've got to follow the how to root and unlock guides.

You forgot about the official ics update if you have the Sprint version, I'm not sure about the other carrier branded phones having the ics update, officially anyway lol
Oh and make sure you have the diagnostic drivers and htc sync installed or you will have issues getting it to connect to the pc, at last that was my issue when I first got this phone lol

If you have GB version , you probably can root it using revolutionary way, very easy and straight forward
Sent from my IdeaTabA2109A using Tapatalk HD
Yeah if it is still on GB (2.3.x) LEAVE IT ON GB! So much easier to deal with once you do some reading. And some in depth info about that might help, anything you can figure out.
You sure you have evo 3d or is it the evo 4g?
Hello, my phone into a brick. Energy installed firmware and immediately after I put Atrix-CM9-Kernel-026b1-ext4-1.45GHz.zip BUT my phone Ruby! I do not put on my device and not for its firmware.Now the phone does not turn on the charge lamp is not lit. The program Amaze_All-In-One_Kit tried to enter the bootloader, but the computer does not see the phone.Drivers installed, HTC Sync is a new version. S-OFF, root, 4EXT.
If I press the volume button down + power button did not work.
What else can I do? Throw the phone? Sorry, I do not speak English.
Well I believe you bricked your phone because of the atrix kernel. If the phone has warranty try sending it back but just tell them that the phone will not turn on & nothing else. If you do have warrenty pm me if not dont.
Y the hell would you flash a kernel from a different device!?!? I think you might just be the first person to officially "brick" the Amaze. I would do wat Justin said, hopefully it is still under warranty. If not, well, then things aren't looking too good

Two separate times & idk why but my phone broke maybe from a brick maybe not bit the point is that I called up my carrier & said my phone will not turn on so they sent me a new one & did not charge me anything.
My phone is not guaranteed. Are there other ways to restore it?
Friends. Who will help with the acquisition of the motherboard for the phone and send to Russia? I'll pay. Please. The phone is very good, but the parts for this model in Russia, no.

Have you tried pulling the battery, letting it sit a minute then put it back in? If you do get it to come on make sure you have a copy of the RUU on your sdcard and have it named PH85IMG.zip and go to the bootloader screen.
I don't have a solution for you, but this poses an interesting question, and that is how can flashing any kind of kernal affect your phones bootloader? I am still learning the ropes here, but my current understanding is that to brick an htc loaded with android, one would have to either flash a broken radio or bootloader file, through the bootloader itself. How can a kernal affect the boot sequence? Just wondering.
Need help. To restore my phone, need an image of the system.
file: "Full flash htc Amaze 4G PH85110"

Hi All,
I got my HTC one and was playing with it for some days and decided to root and make it a google play edition. I did the following steps
1. Unlocked BootLoader from HTCDEV
2. Rooted and did S-OFF (Using REVONE)
3. Was trying to update MID to the GPE and tried to flash the .zip having the MID, CID using HBOOT and phone froze at RUU
4. I did a reboot and now phone is not turning on.
When I connect it to my PC I could hear the sound of it recognizing my phone but nothing is showing up. ADB and FASTBOOT not recognizing the device.
Does it mean my phone is hard bricked>??
If so, is there a JTAG service for HTC one?? The bootloader is still unlocked and i wont get anything from HTC as my warranty is void
Please help!!

Did you flash eng hboot?
Did you flash the eng hboot? Isn't that the only way to change MID? or no? if you can try to boot into fastboot that way. I did the same thing with mine and thought i screwed it up. you should be able to rebootRUU and reflash the tmobile firmware to get you back on your way
Mine did the exact same thing. In fact I never saw the gray spotted screen. You just have to do a combination of button holds while plugging it in.. and it will boot. I had to hold mine for almost 2 straight minutes
You have to manually boot back into RUU mode..it has very specific instructions when flashing ehboot. Why would you go through all the trouble of a MID change when there are many awesome gpe roms? When I changed my mid I could only tell it was doing anything was because my computer made that connection ping.. otherwise the phone screen stayed completely black!!

Hi handman29,
I wanted the stock GPE ROM mainly for the direct OTA's from google. Could you please let me know how to manually bring back RUU
Does your phone show up when you type fastboot devices? If so you should be able to get back.
Edit: sorry didn't realize you said already.

Hello,
today a friend of mine gave me his HTC Desire X, because he forgot his lockscreen pattern and now he is unable to bypass the lock screen.
So he has to login into his google account but unfortunately he doesn't even know the right email adress.
I searched for some methods to bypass the lockscreen, but it seems like there's no possibility.
So I thought about booting into the bootloader in order to proceed a hard reset.
But the strange thing is, that I can't even get into it.
Usally you have to press the volume down and power button but in my case the smartphone simply boots as normal.
I am pretty sure, that it's not my keypressing technique, because I own myself an htc one s and there I can enter the bootloader just finely.
Do you guys have an idea what's the problem and how I could make the phone usable again?
BTW It's not rooted and the bootloader is not unlocked or something like that. It runs the stock htc sense android and sadly ADB is not activated.
I really appreciate your help!
Pull out the battery and then retry to access bootloader with your method (vol down+power). It should work.

What do you mean by pulling out the battery and then trying to acces the bootloader? Booting whithout the battery?
I already pulled out the battery and put it back in but it is still not working.
