the zip of the rom you downloaded has a file in it named boot.img... extract that file and copy it to the same place as your fastboot.exe file...take your phone and go to your hboot screen and select fastboot then plug it into your computer...then open up a command prompt window on your computer and go to that directory that has the fastboot.exe file and type this in
fastboot flash boot boot.img
then reboot your phone when it is done sending and writing... post back and let me know if you have problems
or you can get the pg86img and start over which is a wise decision
any idea how to do it with 4ext recovery supposedly u can do everything from recovery but i still get a bootloop after wiping everything and using superwipe even tried flashimage gui and still no go
Can you get into the recovery still? Anthrax kernel will get you going. 3D camera and usb storage won't work, but at least you'll be up and running.
Flash the attached package in recovery.
If you want full functionality, do the jounupbear wire trick, it takes 5 minutes.
Yes but don't have smartflash on

hi all,
I just soft bricked my evo 3d, who will kindly help me?
My new htc evo 3d just go in trouble: when I rebooted yesterday it just boot loop, then I googled and tried my methods to make it boot, all failed!
My evo 3d is hboot 1.5, and I followed htc method to unlocked it, and tried ruu from goo-inside.me/shooter/ruu ( md5sum checked), but failed to boot up.
Then, I tried:
fastboot erase boot
give thus result:
erasing 'boot'...
FAILED<remote:not allowed>
But It seemed that the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" successful:
sending 'boot' < 3604 KB>...
OKAY [1.016s]
writing 'boot' ...
OKAY [ 8.468s]
finished..
But, I unlocked with htc method, and I can see ***UNLOCKED*** when get into fastboot, why I can not erase boot and any other partitions? So I guess flash boot successful just a fake?
Am I right? What should I do next?
Thanks in advance!
I'm sorry for my English!
I mean, my evo 3d has HBOOT 1.5, and now go in trouble of boot loop.I have followed htcdev.com to unlocked the bootloader, and have tried:
* after unlocked the bootloader,tried twrp-1.0.3, cwm-4.1.0.4 recovery, but all failed to boot into, just stop @ splash screen.
* then I relock with 'fastboot oem lock', and flash with ruu 2.08.651.2, but still failed to escape from boot loop.
* then I unlock it again, and tried 'fastboot erase boot' and want to reinstall boot partition, but failed when running 'fastboot erase boot', please refer to #1 post.
So I think HTC unlock method maybe a suck? if I can not erase the old boot partion, how can i write to boot partion? Am I right?
Thank for any help!
EDIT: I found that after boot loop some times(maybe 10 times), the phone will become very hot, especially around the camera, I don't know why.
Go y htcevohacks.com and follow the really easy steps there to do unlock, get recovery, and super user to all work well. I used these steps and had no problem. I running clean ROM and a custom kernel.

There are only 2 recoveries working for the HTC way they have been modified to work with the hboot 1.5 the htcevohacks.com way has a zip file that has everything you need to do the recovery and superuser. Just read the threads and you can find more detailed instructions....

I have followed htcevohacks' method, but can not enter into recovery, everytime when I select recovery from fastboot, it just boot into normal mode and stuck at the splash screen with HTC logo and then boot loop.
I have tried fastboot boot cwm-4.0.1.4-shooter.img or fastboot flash recovery cwm-4.0.1.4-shooter.img, all failed.
I just can not enter into recovery.
I don't know it is a software brick or a hardware brick? and anyway I can break the boot loop?
Thanks in advance!
do you ever get everything working. Im still stuck trying to get into recovery

You also posted this question in my Flash Image GUI thread. I'll provide you the same answer here:
Steps 1 - 3 will work having used AlphaRevX's revolutionary method. Steps 1 & 3 will work having used HTC's unlock method. The two methods unlock the internal memory write protection differently, hence the difference in steps for flash a custom recovery on the EVO 3D.
1) Flash from normal android mode: My application works well for this, Flash Image GUI, as well as flashing kernels, especially when being away from or not having a computer available.
2) Flash through the bootloader by putting a PG86IMG.zip file on the root of your sdcard. This file with the recovery.img loaded inside is available at the TWRP site.
3) Flash through fastboot by using the following command: fastboot flash recovery c:\downloads\twrp-recovery.img
Hope that helps!
thanks bro, sorry about the double post

I have tried searching all the forums and can't seem to get or understand the answer. I had my evo 3d unlocked using the htc method and last night used the wire trick to obtain s-off. It worked first try and up I am now s-off but stuck in a boot loop. It turns on says HTC and then reboots and does the same thing over and over.

Recovery
Yes I can get into recovery without a problem. I just can't figure out what rom to flash and exactly how to do it? I know this is probably very simple but I'm lost and can't seem to figure out how to flash a rom. I was told if I flash a gsm one by mistake I could brick my phone so I'm looking for any tutorials I can find. Thanks for your quick response.

I will try and write you a little tutorial real quick, ok the rom that I would flash this one, chubbzlou sense 4 rom which you can download here and you will need to flash a good recovery, I would recommend team wins recovery you can download that here and the easiest way to flash that recovery image would be to rename it to "recovery.img" without the quotes obviously and put it in your adb folder ya know with your fastboot.exe and your adb files, and then boot into your boot loader select fastboot and type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and it will say like "sending recovery, successfully written recovery" then power off your device and boot back in to the bootloader, then select recovery and it will boot into team wins amazing recovery, then what you need to do is also download a super wipe from here and basically once you are booted into recovery select mount and then "mount usb storage" make sure you have your usb cable connected to your phone at this point and then your computer will recognize your phone and then move the rom and the super wipe onto your phone, next step after the rom and super wipe have fully transferred then unmount it from your pc and then click "install" in the team win recovery, then select the superwipe zip and then you will have the option to add another zip, select the sense4 rom zip and then do the swipe to flash, they will both finish after a bit and then reboot your device and you will be good to go, hopefully I helped
Has anyone seen Negalite Bluerom R122 or higher for download?

thanks hossman; I fixed my phone by flashing a rom from hboot 1.57.5757 with 4EXT which works great
The 1.50.5050 should work
Put the ROM.zip on your SD
Make a backup through 4ext first
Wipe all except SD card
Reboot recovery
Wipe again

Reboot phone
Should boot fine

This phone has never been rooted and has never had s-off. Phone will not boot into recovery or system. Only bootloops HTC logo or hboot. I used hboot and fastboot to get the bootloader unlocked. I have tried stock, ext4, and custom recoveries and none will boot. I have tried every ruu.exe and PG86IMG.zip from 1.17 to 2.89. None will work. I have used fastboot to flash boot and still will not boot up. When I try to run ControlBear it just

I have seen a couple others with this issue in 1.50 and another with 1.58 but he was LOCKED and hasn't responded to his thread in a couple of days after suggesting having sprint look into it. I unfortunately have a crack in my touchscreen so sprint does nothing to help. Any idea or suggestions would be great.
PS sorry for any double posts or answered questions. I have been looking since 11 and trying different things with nothing working yet.
EDIT: I have looked into trying the unknownforce hboot downgrade but 2.17 will not install since its an older version. 2.89 files I find will load but when it trys to parse the phone just goes back to the bootloader menu.
I suggest you lock the bootloader first and then run the 2.17 ruu.exe. This will put you back to stock GB. Then you can unlock again and get s-off if you choose.

I have tried that and I tried it again. Relocked the phone, ran the update and got a bootloader version error and the phone says RUU Update Fail! Going to try to PG86IMG.zip version of the update now and see if its any different.
EDIT: PG86IMG.zip fails with
Main Version is older!
Update Fail!
Press <power> to reboot.
any .zip files I have found with 2.89 will get to parsing then just go straight to bootloader menu.
I have the same issue, I update to ICS with the OTA update, then did the HTC Dev unlock. But with every rom I tried to flash It just stays stuck at the splash screen. If I try to use the RUU, it gives error 140 I believe, If I try to flash PG86IMG It gives me a main version older failure. S-On
Currently phoneless for the past few days :$

Got this from Tribulattifather page :
1st, ReLock Your bootloader.:
1. Enter FASTBOOT, and then connect to your computer (FASTBOOT USB will be shown).
To do this, hold your volume down key while pressing power. when you've seen the bootloader. Then hook up the phone to the computer. Make sure you have android usb drivers installed.
2. Open command prompt in your computer
3. Relock your device by typing "fastboot oem lock", device will reboot.
4. Enter FASTBOOT again (you will see *** RELOCKED ***)
Then get yourself flashed to a stock rom - <--place on sd card
..Download this one:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...08_NV_SPCS_1.31_003_release_208230_signed.exe
Then press the power button on your phone and you should see Fastboot USB. Once you see this, runn the RUU.exe
Let that work it's way through.
Once that is done then it will boot to the rom.
From here, you can accept the OTA'

Try the following steps,
1. go to recovery > wipe & factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, go to mounts and storage, wipe system, data, cache, sd card... everything u can find there... wipe all..
2. in recovery DO NOT REBOOT, turn off phone
3. go to android development of evo 3d gsm, find a rom, for example mikrunny 1.06, open the archive extract the boot.img from the kernel folder.
4. assuming u have android sdk installed on ur computer, make a new folder and from the android sdk tools copy adb.exe, fastboot.exe, adbwinapi.dll (exact same files u used to unlock bootloader). also in this folder put that boot.img you extracted from the rom
5. put that folder in C:\
6. get back to phone , still DO NOT BOOT UP YET, and power up phone in bootloader mode (vol down & power) and go to fastboot
7. connect phone to pc in fastboot usb mode
8. open command prompt, type cd c:\"folder" ("folder" = folder u created with the sdk tools)
9. type in cmd: fastboot flash boot boot.img
10. after it's completed, go to recovery, still do not boot up phone
11. in recovery go to mounts and storage, usb storage and now copy the whole rom and nothing but the rom on the sd card
12. install zip from sdcard, select rom and let it install, it should boot up automatically
steps were given by SeptimiuB, I am just replying to your query because I've gone through the same mess and recovered as well.
Just unlock your bootloader and install a recovery before trying the above steps.
Cheers.
Yea listen to that dude connect yur phone up fastboot boot boot.img and do the wire trick till it works. It will it takes several times and a lot of cursing but it'll work

Ill be glad to help you with this. With being s-on and unlocked you have access to the nand memory, recovery and system partitions but no access to boot partition which is where your kernel sits at. There's a few ways to work around this. You could download 4ext updater from google play and flash 4ext recovery onto your phone. Upon flashing is finished in the app it will ask you if your device is s-on. click yes and it will enable smartflash. This is a feature that will allow you to flash kernels through recovery means.You can turn this feature on in off in the recovery itself. You could pay a dollar and buy Flash Gui Image which is another great app for s-on users that will allow you to flash kernels and recoveries through the app itself. Of course there's a quick and easy way to gain s-off using ramjets guide. Here's the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1889438 Now this is for cdma users only (sprint and virgin mobile) However if you are gsm heres the guide for that as well http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1743466 Follow method c if your hboot is 1.49 and method d if it is 1.53 The choice is yours sir. Goodluck

You need to flash boot image.Here are the steps
1)enter recovery on phone,claer,delvik,clear battery stats,format everything but sd card
2) copy BOOT.IMG from what ever rom you are trying to flash (move to a folder on your c drive)
3) then set phone for fastboot usb
4) then open cmd on your computer open comand folder
5) use this comand next fastboot flash boot boot.img
6)then your boot img will flash and will take about 11 seconds or so
7) next open recovery on phone
8)clear delvik again and battery stats
9) install rom
10) clear delvik again then reboot,all should work
I do suggest going s-off it is really easy and eliminates alot of these steps.

If you read my post it already stated the easier options to flashing kernels ( purely his preference of method) I just laid out easier options for him than rather jumping through hoops to flash kernels. I also gave him links to where he can gain s-off ( again his choice if he wants to or not). It just seems redundant to restate basically what I just said. Not trying to be a douche at all.
With you on that,don't think your douche! Lol,sometimes putting the steps in outline forms helps noobs. I know when I first started to root my 3D and load roms,it took me a while to understand it. But hopefully we both were able to help.

Hello everybody.
Before posting this thread I have read lots of similar threads, but no answer...
My evo was running fine on Mwakious3D rom v.15.3, I was s-off, 4ext recovery, Hboot 1.49.1107, kernel coolexe (integrated in Mwakious rom).
Yesterday night I had network connection problems, so I tried to switch from GSM only to GSM/CDMA auto and back.
My device freezed and I could not get back it responding, so I pulled the battery out.
Then I put back the battery in and tried to turn it on.
From that moment, when I try to turn it on, it shows the HTC splash screen, then after about 10 seconds it turns off by itself and starts bootlooping.
I tried to enter recovery trough Hboot, but even recovery gets stuck on HTC splash screen and the device gets very very hot, then a bootloop starts. I have to pull the battery out because I fear I can damage it.
So I tried to flash again the boot.img from the rom I was on, through Fastboot in command line. The operation succeeded, but when I tried to reboot, I always got bootloop.
So I tried to fastboot flash a new recovery becaue I thought mine was broken. I tried to flash 4ext, cwm and twrp.
Even this didn't fix the problem: I can't get past HTC splash screen either in normal rebooting nor recovery.
So I tried to flash the P86img.zip contained in this thread at letter E: ht_tp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1743466 (sorry, I can't post URLs).
Even after flashing that, no way I can get past the HTC splash.. I can't access recovery, even if I try to boot it from fastboot.
I don't know what to do anymore.
Please help!!!
My configuration at the moment:
Hboot 1.49.0007 s-off
Radio: 10.13.9020.08_2m
Recovery: 4ext
Please, help me as soon as possible, you are my only hope to unbrick my Evo 3D!!!
Another information: I try to access the device also via adb.
It returns me empty devices list.
If I run adb usb, it returns me error:no device connected.
I have the HTC drivers v.3.007 installed. I tried both on XP x86 and W7 x64.
Fastboot instead recognizes the device, so that I can flash *.img.

Thanks a lot... i'm trying in a couple of hours...
I will feedback if it's working.
Bad news dude!!!
I relocked hboot then ran the latest RUU.
Flashing process proceeds well and completes, but after it the phone keeps bootlooping. Always stuck to HTC splash logo.
In the bootloader menu "recovery" is still there. I can't boot into recovery either because I get the usual bootloop.
Any further ideas?
At the moment I am on
Hboot 1.53.0007 relocked s-on
radio -11.25.3504.06_m
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
when I run adb usb it still responds error: device not found
Now I unlocked back Hboot and succeeded in flashing recovery (4ext).
Anyway that f***ing bootloop is still there... I can't access recovery...damnit:crying:
Take out your sdcard and see if you can boot into recovery, taking a shot in the dark but could be a corrupt sdcard
(Don't ask me for help as I couldn't care if your phone explodes, eh!
try "fastboot boot recovery.img" in cmd. but the real problem is that running RUU didnt work. are you sure it flashed completely? I'd say run it again
Sorry, friends, I tried both methods without success...always that bootloop after... Even trying fastboot boot recovery.img... I can't get into recovery menu. Only hboot menu... Maybe I could try once again to flash the RUU.exe after relocking bootloader...any better ideas than mine? I'm starting to lose hope...
Hi,
I have nearly the same issue.
i played to much with reroot and unroot.
Now my evo gsm austria is:
shooter_u pvt shp s-off rl
hboot 1.53.0007
radio 10.13.9020.08_2m
eMMC boot
I can access recovery, but it doesn't matter which rom i flash i always have the bootloop. I even flashed different recoveries and the extracted boot,img from the roms (via fastboot). But i'm stuck in the Bootloop.
When i try to flash an RUU as PG86IMG i get the message CID incorrect.
CID is VODAP120
I hope someone has the answer.
thanx michael

I changed my CID now:
fastboot oem writecid HTC__01
moved a non branded pg86img to the root of my sdcard and it ran through
now my phone is back to hboot 1.49.0007
looks good at the moment
i want to get back to full stock, to get original ICS
but i can't get updates, they always fail during the installation . even when i was locked and s-on
It runs again - back to life
So what did i do next.
The official OTA Update to ICS came down!
But wouldn't install
So i extracted the firmware.zip moved to PG86IMG.zip and flashed over the bootloader.(just 24MB - Boot,Bootloader)
It installed rebooted and at the moment a very long black screen, lets see how long

No bootloop, but nothing else too
Next step
extract the rom.zip from "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"
moved as PG86IMG.zip to root of SDCARD
and flashing over Bootloader
lets wait

YEAH
Android 4.0.3
Sense 3.6
Software
3.28.401.1
And its running
Still S-OFF and unlocked
with H-BOOT 1.53.0007
Radio 11.25.304.06_M
I hope the 12hrs i invested the last 3 days will repay

Extract the rom zip file and rename it to PG86IMG.zip , put in root of sdcard and flash in bootloader.
I'm running out of ideas here. Running an RUU is a last failsafe method of restoring your phone to stock but that isnt working for you. Maybe try another ruu(the one which was on your phone when you purchased it)
I'm having some issues aswell.
I flashed 4ext because some roms would get stuck on the htc logo screen for half an hour..
Flashed the NonSense rom, worked fine, made a backup of it.
Then i wanted to test Viper's latest rom with sense 4.0, flashed it with 4ext, successful.
I found NonSense better in my opinion so i went to backup, and restored the ROM. After that i couldn't get any further than the htc logo screen.
I switched to clockwork, twrp but no result. I tried even other ROMs but i still can't get pass that cursed splash screen.
And yes, i deleted cache and dalvik etc..
The only thing i haven't tried is getting the stock rom and flashing it to see if it works.
Also, would some of you be kind enough to give me the recovery.img of the latest version of 4ext? I can't find it anywhere, not even on my sd card.
Thanks, looking forward to your answers.
my advice would be to do a clean install of nonsense rom. Wipe data+factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, install rom.
btw are you s-off or s-on? be sure to turn on smart flash in case you're s-on.
I've attached 4EXT RC5

I tried... I'm s-on and hboot relocked.
That's what I get:
Code:
C:\Android>fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
sending 'boot' (4310 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.883s]
writing 'boot'...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
finished. total time: 1.466s
Code:
Damnit!!!
you need to unlock bootloader again before flashing boot.img or recovery

done...unlocked, flashed boot_signed.img and tried to boot. Always bootloop.
Then flashed recovery_signed.img and tried to boot... again that f***ed bootloop. Starting to hate HTC splash screen!!!!
do you still get the "FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)" error? If so theres something wrong here. And do flash a custom recovery like 4EXT. it should then be recovery.img not the signed one
