Phone Stuck on HTC logo boot - HTC EVO 3D

Okay i've been looking since last night for the answer to this question and found out nothing but everyone helping gives up and stops answering the question. Thus the thread is left with answered question.
But here goes. Currently on hboot. 1.50 s-on
Rooted my phone last night and download "mean" ics rom. Put it on the root of my sd card and went to recovery to boot the rom.
the rom wasnt downloading to the system and i dropped the phone by accident onto my bed and the battery fell out. (the back wasnt on it, not a hard fall)
attemped to install the rom again and by accident installed the "viper" ics rom
rebooted phone from recovery and phone will not go further than the htc logo boot.
any suggestions?
i can still go into hboot and recovery if i take my battery out. so i do not think its bricked since i can use my power button.

I think the dropped phone thing is coincidence. I'm pretty certain the issue is ICS and being hboot 1.5 s-on. For some reason, being s-on causes ICS to bootloop for most people. I highly recommend you go s-off. See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1585846

Go s off so no more bootlooping and when the phone fell it didnt affect the bootloop

okay the problem with this is i cant get to my basic phone functions, im stuck with htc boot logo screen, bootloader/recovery
like i start the controlbearRelease program and it try to take me from bootloader to the main phone functions which it wont do. Like getting to the main phone functions would leave me with no problem
okay at thes point since so many people have seen it, im guessing im s.o.l?

If you can get to recovery, then just Flash a stock rooted rom for your CDMA.
That will boot you up and you can s-off.
Yank the battery and put it back in. Then hold the down volume and press the power button while continuing to hold the down volume button until it boots into bootloader. From there you can get to recovery.
From recovery you can flash a stock rooted rom.
Then the rest should be easy.
After you are s-off you can flash any rom you want to for CDMA and you can flash the new Firmware and Radio.

[Q] Bricked EVO 3D?

Hello everyone. The other day i used revolutionary to Perma-root my evo 3d. Everything was fine, till my text messages were not sending. So i took out the battery and popped it back in, and all i got was the HTC logo, then a dimmed black screen. Yes i can get into hboot, but i have clockworkmod recovery. I seem to be having a difficult time flashing the official sprint evo 3d rom. Any help is appreciated.
Download the pg86100.zip to revert back to stock in the dev section then go into hboot and let it update and you will start back at the stock ROM

try hboot flashing twrp recovery. then if you can boot up update your prl and profile, also make a phone call to see if you got that error 16 thing. Also, did you by chance try to replace your bootanim? If you did, and something like wrong permissions were set, it would still be booting with a black screen, maybe try leaving it alone while it's booting for a bit?
I did the twrp recovery, but i still get the dim black screen. after the dim black screen it goes black for a few seconds, then goes to the HTC logo again. I didnt try to change anything either...

Above is your best solution. From there you can decide to either root again or wait a bit longer. But that should fix the issue and keep you from a boot loop of just the HTC screen.
Well thats where you are wrong. I am still in the boot loop after doing the stock HTC EVO 3d flash.
So the bootloader scanned and flashed the PG86IMG file and you are still showing just the HTC screen?
Did you follow the directions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194053
Hi where exactly do the adb and fastboot files go when you start to run commands?

A brick is when the phone is completely unresponsive and won't boot or give you a charging led. If you can get to hboot you're not bricked. I would do a factory wipe from hboot menu (choose clear storage), and then either run an RUU with your phone in fastboot usb mode, or use a PG86IMG.zip
of an RUU to flash back to stock. That should hopefully fix the loops.

From past experiences like this, wipe, flash the bare stock rooted ROM in the development section. Do this in recovery mode. Before wiping you could try just flashing the bare Rom over. That usually worked for me.

Sweet, glad you got it booting. Now that you've ran the RUU, you'll probably need to run Revolutionary again and then flash TWRP recovery. You should be good to go then. I think your hboot will still be S-off after the RUU, but from reports of other people it acts like it's still S-on and won't let you flash anything, so running Revolutionary again is necessary.
Well i cant use revolutionary...
My device is not supported?
And now i cant make calls or text messages, i get error 16.
any help?

Call Sprint. . they can fix it. . .it's actually a common problem after the root. Try to make a call. . .you will get the error message. . .you should hang on the line for a few minutes and it will direct you to sprint. They will call you on another line. . that's not your phone, and have you power the phone off. . .they will wait a few minutes then tell you to turn it on and make a test call. . .they may have you go thru a few things, but I didn't. . .and it will work.

Help!
I feel like such a freakin noob. My EVO3D is not quite bricked but I think i broke my recovery img AND my ROM. All I can do is turn on Hboot. Tried the stock Sprint RUU to go back to stock and i keep getting an error message everytime it tries to update the ROM image. Have no idea what to do now without being able to go into recovery. Suggestions?
My phone is doing the exact same thing, cept running the ruu.exe didn't fix it. Anyone else have some more ideas?

Evo 3D Shutting down or random reboot

hi im having strange issues, i though was the rom i was using, but i change from rom and my issue persist, when i leave iddle my phone, suddenly or reboots or shutdown :S i guess this its since i update radio to latest, anyone have this issue? i want update all firmware but i read from some, the cellphones are bricked.
im using in mexico.
any help? thanks a lot
Im having this same issues and its getting really annoying . I had a htc screen loop problem so i re locked the phone and ruu'd back to stock of the latest update (or rather flashed the PGIMG86 file or whatever) and the phone literally now reboots its self whenever it feels like , most noticeable if i leave it alone for a little while or press the power button to turn the display off. I re rooted and am now on freshrom and its still doing it occasionally. I think it might have been doing it before i ever did that relock though, too. Is this a problem with the new firmware? Is there anyway to downgrade , like an odin type of application?
this sounds like a kernel issue. the first guy (OP) i assume you are on GSM being out of the united states... i'm not sure i can provide you a whole lot of help there because i am not familiar with the GSM version of the EVO 3D. however, random rebooting can usually be attributed to a few general things, so either of you can trouble shoot and start here....
bad download of boot.img (files were corrupted somewhere)
-you should try flashing another kernel/ROM combo where users are NOT reporting
any issues whatsoever. also, try re-downloading your existing .zip just to make
sure the one you are using is not corrupted.
remove your micro SD card...
-most people don't think of this, but a bad SD card can cause random reboots. it is
a disk, and if your device is getting errors or something when trying to read it, it
will reboot to check the disk. start by moving apps OFF the SD card, then removing
the SD card entirely. if the reboots go away, that was your issue, and time for a
new SD card. i had this same issue when i first got my Evo, thought it was the
phone, turned out it was a bad card.
that's a good place to start. come back with questions/results.
i just deleted everything off of the sd card and it happened again afterwards. also it was happening before re - locking of the bootloader , and across several roms and kernels. totally lost. i also had it happen earlier today with no sd card in the phone , too. It was even happening on complete stock.
was it happening when you first got the phone? if so, time to take it to sprint

its a replacement from asurion , im all out of insurance claims with them , lol . it was my gf's and she wanted a shift so she purchased one off of craigslist and gave me the 3d because my sgs2 has a damaged usb port. as soon as she got it in the mail she imeediatley gave it to me and i rooted it right away , lol , so im really not sure. id like to return it to factory stock before the ota update ,as i have a strange feeling it has something to do with it . i had it for a couple hours completley stock no nothing , then took the ota update and proceeded to root. i dont recall a reboot before that.

exact same situation as me man , it mostly happens when i let the phone go idle , although it just happened when i was trying to edit the bookmarks widget on my home screen , and it seems to have happened after i updated the radio except i didnt flash i took the ota update.....for me its every rom , rooted or unrooted too
Ok happens again with different ROM, so I guess it's the radio, bit the weird thing is turn off the phone, no just reboot
So anyone knows how to revert to .9 radio? Or any solution? Thanks

If you guys are both cdma and hboot 1.5 already.. Why don't you wipe everything in recovery just not your SD cards...
Hboot 1.5 S-ON
Then relock your phone run the RUU 2.17 exe and let it do it's thing then update your profile and so on.
Then just unlock your phone again with the unlock code should fix you guys up....
How are you guys flashing also? What recovery do you use?
I was having the same issues. Random reboots and random shut downs. Really getting frustrating. So I figured I would unroot my phone and take it into Sprint. I followed scrosler's guide to unroot but I used the latest PG86IMG.zip from Mr. Esp's thread. Of course this brought me up to hboot 1.5 but the random restarts and shut downs have stopped.

I did everything you suggested here , down to a tee . I re locked the phone , except for i used the PG86IMG.zip file for 2.17 and loaded it in the bootloader to go back to stock after re locking. I let it sit for a day and then got bored and unlocked and rooted again and am on FreshRom. My original recovery was clockwork but now im on TW , hoping that itd help. Guess im gonna have to re-lock again and RUU back to an older base instead of 2.17. I waanna see if that fixes this problem.

Replacement EVO 3D - NEED root HELP

Hello everyone
I am new to this forum, well I have been downloading roms for about 6 months but I registered today, anyhow I took my evo 3d to the sprint repair center the other day because my lcd went out, that's what the sprint employee had told me anyway and so two days later I received a replacement evo 3d, it was hboot 1.5 obviously and I took it home and installed the 2.17.651.5 RUU because sprint puts a version of the 2.17.651.5 ruu on their evo 3d's that does not communicate well during the unlock process of HTCdev.com, so here is my problem, after flashing the ruu I unlocked my bootloader via the htcdev unlock method, and began to flash my first custom rom, and I have run into the same problem over and over, I would boot into clockwordmod recovery via fastboot and then flash the rom after performing a super-wipe and every single time I would get a boot loop, no matter which rom I used, it would boot up and get to the setup screen and boot loop constant boot loop, every single rom I tried, I have not experienced this before when flashing roms, I then looked at a few threads of the roms I tried to flash and one recommended that I extract the boot.img from the zip and flash it via fastboot, some people say that you are required to do that with hboot 1.5 but in the past when I used my old evo 3d I never had to do that and it was hboot 1.5 s-on, please if someone has an answer I would gladly appreciate it, thanks in advance

I didn't really believe that all evo 3d's act differently until I got my replacement. Now I know that their not all the same, even when they have the same hardware version. I'm sure you can see that too. You just have to figure out what works for that phone. I think a sure fire way to get a good install when you have s-on is to use fastboot to boot to recovery. Have you tried that yet? It doesn't sound like you've got a normal bootloop and I haven't encountered your issue before but fastbooting to recovery is worth a try. I'm sure you've heard this a lot but I'm gonna suggest it anyway, get s-off, you won't regret it.
Also, does the phone reboot like that after you run an ruu?

What wikdNoob said. Some phones do fine flashing ICS ROMs with S-on, but from my reading of the forums, many phones bootloop when flashing ICS ROMs with S-on. Since you are 1.5 S-on, you should do the wire trick to get S-off.
I've read so many times how people use the same procedures to flash the same ROM with the same radios, hboot, etc where one gets bootloops and the other does not. Each phone is different.

Now that you're s-off you can change your boot splash screen, a lot of choices in the the themes and apps section. You can check mine out from the link in my Sig.

you really should go s-off, I thought the wire trick method would be difficult it was literally the easiest thing I have ever done, I don't know if you are familiar with JTAG xboxes, I used to jtag a **** load xbox's back in the day, in high school, so all this **** is easy, no soldering involved with this ****

RUU wont fix evo 3d

Heya everyone. So i failed the jbear s-off and now everytime i remove my battery i end up in a bootloop and the only thing to do is boot into bootloader and select the "recovery" option and it goes thru a loading bar and boots up. I tried running the RUU and everytime i do and then boot back up the problem is still happening...bootlooping when the battery is removed. Should i re-unlock, root, and attempt s-off again?

I thought you gave up after the last post in this thread.
Creating more threads and posts about the same problems isn't going to make them any more likely to get solved. If you have dropped your phone and done your own repairs there is most likely something wrong with the phone, as Sprint already pointed out.

There hasn't been any problems with the phone at all its life until the s-off failure. Its gotta be something from when I failed the s-off. I have never heard of bootlooping when the battery is removed. Or why the ruu won't do anything So I thought I'd ask around.

Shoot me a PM if you need some help, no question is a dumb question so take your time and hit me up with anything you're not real sure about.
I'm guessing if you had problems it's either because of drivers, or you had like the gingerbread firmware and hboot and an ICS rom and patch, because that causes jp bear to look at your phone and say "WTF"
