is it possible to downgrade with 1.49.0007 PG86IMG? I mean the usual put it in the root of the SD Card and run bootloader to root??

Hi there,
I was in the same position last night then I flashed cwm recovery on to the phone via fast boot then used cwm recovery to flash the latest super user the phone, and ta da rooted ICS
I also have Hboot 1.53.0007 with S-off
BTW. I had to go through HtcDev and unlock the bootloader first.

You're already s-off, don't use the HTC unlock method, you're already unlocked and you dont even have the locked bootloader that is required for the HTC unlock method. Read some threads about how to do this, they're very well written.
Yea, you just need to flash the correct recovery and superuser stuff. Or flash a recovery and then a rooted rom
We're comin from a pure power source.
What recovery should i use?
I already unlocked over htcdev, and relocked bootloader. Had no problem...
Sent from mine mean EVO 3D X515m machine using Tt
Whichever one is made for gsm evo. You can search or use rom manager. I prefer to do it manually though

What is the best way to rewert to stock recovery and unroot?

To un root run the ruu again and take the OTA updates takes you back to .018 but you will still be s off there are guides to s on

I was s-off from the start. Got my phone that way.
So just run ruu? That will restore custom recovery too?

if you want to go back to stock you have to download the proper RUU for your phone.. relock your bootloader and then take that RUU and rename it to PG86IMG.zip and transfer it over to your sdcard in the root folder... then boot into hboot and youll see the file start to be loaded by the blue bar on the upper right side of the screen...and yes it should install the stock recovery....
Thanks for info guys!
Poor choice of roms. But will stay rooted for a while.

Rooted, installed super user and busybox.
If I wanted to go back to stock can I run this RUU:

as long as you download the correct version of your RUU there is no risk... download the wrong one with the wrong hboot there is a big risk of atleast "soft"bricking your phone... not unfixable but requires more work...

The solution was to get the rom from the RUU, rename it to PG86IMG and flash it through the bootloader.

i used to be rooted and s-off with revolutionary. When you run the official RUU you loose root, s-off etc. the phone goes completely back to stock (need to adb command fastboot oem writesecureflag 3) after the PG86IMG install in order to s-on. I did that yesterday without knowing that today i will receive the ics OTA !

[Q] Serious problem

Hello Guys!
First of all, i wanna apologize. I know this thread might be rude because im noob but i need my phone in 2 days (since i got trip to france)
Im on GSM Evo 3d Hboot 1.53. I tried to flash King Cobra ICS rom. I got bootloops. I tried to fix it as here on htcevohacks site using DumLock . It havent helped. I was using 4ext recovery and i think it is a problem. Now i changed my recovery to CWM Revolutionary. When i reboot (or boot) my phone normally or after restore of my normal room it boots up with 4ext recovery. What should I do?
Thanks very much for your help! i Need this damn phone!
Can you access the recovery?
Are you s-on or s-off?
If you're s-on, then go into 4ext recovery and enable smart flash, then flash a working custom rom (plenty of them out there)
Do the same if you're s-off, just don't enable smart flash
Remember to wipe all the normal partitions before flashing, this will wipe all your data though

Since this is an emergency, I recommend you flash a Gingerbread Rom since those seem to flash better with s-on phones. Use 4ext and set it to s-on mode. Then flash a GB Rom like leedroid or mwakious.

Good to know. I'm CDMA, so I learn about Gsm from the Gsm people.

1. Download CoolExe's ROM
2. Copy boot.img from that ROM into your adb folder
3. Install ROM trough cwm
4. Reboot into Fastboot and use
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
5. Reboot.
This worked for me, after unlocking (htcdev) and installing cwm on 1.53.007 hboot.

If you are S-OFF and the bootloader says LOCKED, you aren't really locked.
S-OFF, is S-OFF.
I'm assuming you used the wire trick?
If so, then it's normal for it to say locked.

man s-off is way more important than an unlocked bootloader s-off lets you overwrite over data , system and boot partition , u can flash any custom rom but just making a full wipe and flash the zip file no bootloops no need to downgrade ur hboot and no to unlock the bootloader , once u achieve s-off u can do whatever u want

Unless I'm mistaken, hboot 1.58 is CDMA only. Since you're GSM, it would be a bad idea. Afaik, 1.57 is the latest GSM.
I could be wrong as HTC numbers hboots very annoyingly.

Yeh as far as I know 1.58 is CDMA. Though why you would want to update your hboot is beyond me... generally speaking the lower your hboot the fewer problems you will have with it

1.57 is VM hboot. If you are S-Off search for the hboot thread by mpgrimm and download the 1.58. That one is not unlocked though. 1.58.5858 junuptobear is unlocked I think. It is there too.

Since you are s-off, find and download the appropriate gsm hboot (i know where cdma ones are but not gsm), rename the file (pg86img for cdma, not sure for gsm), put it on the root of your sd card, reboot into bootloader and flash it there.

You are already S-OFF with latest hboot. You dont need to unlock it. S-OFF is more than unlocked bootloader. If you want to root, you will have to flash custom bootloader 1st if you cannot unlock it. As you will not be able to flash recovery through fastboot without unlocking it though you are S-OFF. or you can flash a PG86IMG.ZIP containing a custom recovery.
then boot the custom recovery and flash superuser zip.
This will root your phone.
How can I Flash custom bootloader
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using xda app-developers app
i'm gonna try and explain this real easy:
1) Download you the hboot you want (I'd recommend this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1906172 )
2) Put the PG86IMG on the root of your sdcard (it means dont put it into any folder just place it outside)
3) Pull out battery.
4) Hold power and vol down button. The phone should boot into bootloader(white screen with fastboot recovery options etc)
5) select bootloader by pressing power button
6) It should check for the PG86IMG now. let it do its thing. when asked if you want to apply update press power up.
7) Let it complete and reboot
