My evo 3d's screen gave out and instead of replacing it im sending it to HTC since its covered under the limited warranty.
The guy told me as long as I haven't loaded 3rd party software on my phone that it'll be ok even if I used HTC's tool to unlock the bootload (which I did). I was trying to follow this guide but the link given in the first step is dead:

I used my NAND backup to restore the original sprint ROM, but I think I have to still actually flash it and restore the recovery. Were else can I find it since that link is down?

I don't have it, but all you need is any ruu: 2.07, 2.17, ext. I think you can get these off sprint or HTC websites.

Okay so I got the file and renamed it PG86IMG.zip and placed it in the sd root. Went to my hboot (1.50 unlocked) and it scans the file for a minute then nothing happens...doesn't install it or anything.
I tried to go to fastboot and run:
fastboot update P86IMG(.zip) without any success.
Any ideas?
Go to the Q & A and in the sticky one of them is going to say return to full stock . Just follow that guide and you're done

All you have to do is download 2.17 RUU .exe not a zip. Relock device and run RUU.exe while the device is attached to fastboot usb. Once the exe goes through ur done your phone is restored to normal don't worry if ur phone shows relocked and a security warning just run the 2.17 RUU it will fix the security issues. This will also unroot ur device.

i am currently running an ICS rom and need to return mine for another device since it is defected.
Can i just htcdev LOCK then flash the ruu renamed as PH98IMG.zip to get back to stock?
You can do that cause I think ruu is different than just flashing stock. I had an og evo and I flashed the stock and I still had s-off so best advice make sure there is an s-on utility for ur device then use the ruu to return to stock

That will work fine. You can also relock then run the RUU on a windows PC, but pretty much the same thing will be accomplished.

I'm no expert but I think (if you made a Nandroid) you can extract the boot.img from the Nandroid then flash it and restore your stock Backup. I would also wipe / factory reset in recovery.
If you don't have a Nandroid backup you can download the RUU or a boot.img from a Rom like Scott's GB ROM and use one of those after you extract the boot.img.
I just did this today, I first flashed back to a gingerbread rom, then i unzipped the ruu and took the boot_signed.img from it, renamed it to boot than flashed it from fastboot. Then I put the ruu zip on my memory card (renamed it to ph98img) and fastboot OEM locked the device. I then rebooted the bootloader and applied the update.

I got it from scottsroms.com, I just downloaded the zip file in the ruu section, as for reverting back to a gingerbread Rom, I'm sure anyone of them would work (scotts clean rom has always done me well). I only say that because once you flash the boot image, your ics rom won't boot, so you can't place the ruu on the memory card, unless you have another way to mount your sd card to the computer (i.e. adapter, or another phone)

I believe all you have to do is pick the rom you want, install it and your good. The majority of them automatically takes you to hboot to flash the kernal, but not all of them, so make sure you read the instructions before you flash.

Wait I thought even if you relocked the bootloader it said "relocked" or something at the top so Verizon could tell no matter what. That's the only reason i haven't unlocked yet because i just got a new device and want to make sure there are no bugs with it.

I wondered this as well. Most csr's don't seem to be as knowledgeable as the people here on xda. They also don't seem to have a lot of knowledge on particular devices besides the obvious specs. I really don't think anyone is going to boot into fastboot to see it's been relocked, or even know what that means.

I just spoke with a Verizon tech on the phone last night, he told me that simply unlocking the phone would NOT void the warranty considering HTC is allowing it via their website. However he did say that any rooting/roms would void it immediately (if they can detect it of course).
So basically just put it back to stock and you are good?

Can someone point me to a functional download of a stock rom? I am either downloading the wrong one or the link from many of the older posts is dead. The ones that I have downloaded don't seem to be working or I am doing it wrong. At the moment the phone boots to the white HTC screen and hangs there. I am able to boot into fast boot and get into recovery but none of the .zip files I am attempting to load are working. I have tried using an RUU EXE but I keep getting an error about the batter being below 30% even though it has been charging all night while turned off. I have looked through many stickies and how to instructions but I just can't seem to figure it out. Thanks for any assistance with this issue.

The best way to return to stock, is by using the leaked HTC tool, RUU. RUU stands for ROM Update Utility.
There are many different ways to handle this situation. The method I would use and prefer, I posted yesterday and am quoting:
Easiest solution is to attempt the RUU again ..
If for some reason, that process isn't working but you're able to access the bootloader, I'd remove the sdcard, using another device, load the rom.zip from the RUU.exe onto the sdcard, rename rom.zip to PG86IMG.zip and boot into the bootloader. The bootloader will recognize this file and flash it, having the same outcome as using the RUU.exe via USB.

Great location for the leaked RUU.exe or rom.zip files contained inside of the RUU.exe is: http://goo-inside.me/shooter/ruu .
Good luck!
I have downloaded the RUU and extracted the rom.zip, renamed it to PG86IMG.zip, copied it to the root of the sd card, and booted into the bootloader. Here is a link to a video of what happens.

I don't know if i grabbed the wrong file or if the phone is just FUBAR.

Have you tried to boot the phone let it charge up and snag the 2.17 ruu exe from football's thread in dev section.
I would turn debug on then adb reboot bootloader fastboot into recovery wipe and then go back to hboot and relock the phone a must do ... Then use the ruu .

The phone will not boot past the white HTC screen so debug mode stuff is out of the question. If I relock the phone will it let me use the ruu and not give me the under 30% battery error even though the phone has been charging for the last 2 days.

I would hope so .. to use a ruu you must be relocked. I think you get some funky issues tryin to use it without relockin first I have seen others try it your way and have it say 30% thing.
I would try it . I only know you have to be relocked to use a ruu exe.

Since you are s-on just lock your bootloader If you are unlocked , and use the latest 2.17 RUU.exe....then unlock again...and root it.
the reason i gave a list of thiungs to do is bc i dont have my hands on your phone... you stated you have s-on... you should if you have 1.5 bc you cant turn that off... above that though your phone should say *unlocked* you need to set it back to say *relocked*
and you mus also make sure the recovery you have is the factory one... if you have twrp or clockmod for a recovery you will end up erroring out when the phone reboots and tries to install it... and if that happens youll end up having to flash the rest to get it to boot again

This has them all, but These are STOCK roms without root, they do not contain super user or busybox or anything, so you will lose root, you shouldn't have to re-lock to update though... it should just let you update it, this is going to wipe out whatever your current rom is.
You probably want something more like an already rooted rom though...

Found on androidfiles.org/ruu/?developer=Vigor or any of the other ones it fails. Fortunately I have not bricked the phone yet but I am running out of options since android police site has one but says not to use it : This will not work if you used the HTC Bootloader unlock tool. Your device must be fully stock with a locked bootloader or you must have S-Off (method).
Help please!!!
Try this link here http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Vigor and download the PH98IMG_ICS_3.14.605.12.zip! Do not download any others. Rename it to PH98IMG.zip and flash in bootloader. It should allow you to flash it.

After you rename it place it on the root directory of the SD card. Then power phone off. Then press volume down + power so it boots into bootloader. There it should ask if you want to update. Tell it yes. It won't brick you as its the same s/w you seem to be on. Worst case it won't flash.

Remember to flash a ph98img zip RUU, the bootloader must be relocked and internal storage will also be completely wiped. Backup the contents in recovery using usb mass storage mounts.

Sounds like all that needs done is a factory reset(wipe caches+data) and wipe system. Re-flash a Sense rom and fastboot flash the matching boot.img. Try my rom Viral OTA, just the data/system wipes prior to flashing and it willk get you back up to 100%. Rememer to reboot to bootloader if using TWRP.

which methode?
Now this one is the exe method.
1. Download your device specific RUU from this sticky thread or Google for it.
2. Run the RUU and when its de-compressed and asks you to press next, just stop there (Don't close this window and dont press next).
3. Go to the "temp" folder on your PC. If you are on Windows 7 its located in "C:\Users\{Your_User_Name}\AppData\Local\Temp" and on Windows XP its in "C:\Documents and Settings\{Your_User_Name}\Applications Data\Local Settings\Temp"
4. Use the windows search function in "Temp" folder or dig deep into sub folders to find "rom.zip" file. It'll be around ~250MB in size.
5. Copy this file and paste it somewhere else on your PC e.g. desktop.
6. Rename this "rom.zip" file to "PG85IMG.zip"
7. Now take your SD card from Phone and connect it to your PC using a card reader or some other phone.
8. Paste that renamed "PG85IMG.zip" at the root of your SD Card.
9. Now power off your phone. Pull out the battery.
10. Insert the SD Card back in the phone. Insert the battery.
11. Now hold your volume down key and press power button. Keep the volume down key pressed. It will start your phone in boot-loader menu.
12. Select FASTBOOT if its not already selected and press power button.
13.It will search your SD Card for files and will find "PG85IMG.zip" file and will ask if you want to update.
14. Press the volume up button as instructed to continue and then sit back and relax.
Once finished it will ask you to reboot. Once rebooted, you'll be back on stock ROM with S-On.
Delete the "PG85IMG.zip" from SD Card now.
To verify S-On reboot into bootloader again (Step 11) and on the very first line it will say S-On or S-Off

for flashing PG85IMG.zip my phone must be locked or unlock?
To flash back to stock you need to relock the bootloader and make sure you're using the correct image for your device and carrier. S-on or s-off doesn't matter. For example, trying to flash a T-Mobile image won't work. In one of the pinned threads in one of the forums here is a link to the stock images for different carriers. If you can't find it do a search, but I'm pretty sure they can also be found in the Amaze Bible page or in the Amaze Wiki.
Once relocked all you have to do is rename the image and flash from your SD-card in hboot. If it fails to flash you're probably using the wrong image or you're still unlocked. Once you've relocked the bootloader it will say relocked. If the image is from a different carrier it won't work either. Again just make sure the image you're trying to flash is from the carrier that originally sold the phone. Then you should have no problems returning to stock.
i relocked it and went to hboot page
it says
Loading .....[ph85img.zip] then
Checking....[ph85img.zip]
after side bar fulls says "hboot version is older !"
update fail!
press power to reboot

I can't successfully rollback to the gb ruu or the ics ruu. The ics ruu is an ota which appears to need an gb install.
Pure stock tmous ruu check for tmous cid and fails when it finds the Telus cid.
Finally installed arhd 4 and s-off tool ran without error. I could then flash radio and hboot
