phone wont update to 4.0 - HTC EVO 3D

My evo 3d is 3.0 with h-boot 1.5 with S-OFF but wont update to 4.0. Goes to install screen for 2 seconds then reboots back to 3.0. What can or do I need to do to get the 4.0?

Just wait for the rooted version. Check out the cdma development forum (if ur on sprint) it will be up soon.

Jesus people this is rooting 101. If you are rooted, do NOT take an OTA update. Wait until a dev releases a stock rooted rom zip file, shouldn't be more than 24 hours. Flash that like any other rom. Not that hard.

Hey thanks for the info. I tried the ota again and it worked this time. Only thing that sucks so far is all of my apps are gone.

Newest ota on root and rom?

So I saw there's a new update already and it promises better radios ans such.... Should I update?? Also I can't through my rom so should I flash Tom's to a stock then accept it? I think my ron blocks HTC updates (steelROM)

don't update if you wanna keep root! just flash a ROM that has that ota.

haha sorry, was on my phone xP

I can run both 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 Roms?

I can flash both versions is that possible? It must be because I can haha.

Any ideas from any of the devs?

Great you can flash roms. You do realize you are using 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 which ever you flashed last. Please tell me you don't think you are using both roms at the same time.
Hahaha yeah I know I'm not using them at the same time, I was on a 2.3.4 rom then I flashed a 2.3.3 rom, I didn't think u could go back and forth ,just one or the other.

Yeah i never knew you could do that cause I took the newest ota and I have hboot 1.50 and unlocked my phone through HTC
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Yeah some great Dev's here, cant wait to try out the 2.3.4 kernel when someone completes one!
No kidding seems like every week something new comes out
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Were you s-off before you took the ota?? You may be able to flash a 2.3.3 rom, but you won't be able to flash the kernel so the rom may not fully work. Most people that try find out wifi won't work along with other problems. The hboot 1.5 won't let you write to certain system partitions and the kernel is one of those.
Yeah I was s-off b4 I took the OTA, then I did the HTC unlock method when it finished it didn't reboot so I took the battery out and went into recovery and it said unlocked in the pink banner and s-off lol seems like I ghetto rooted my phone. Never had any problems flashing anything yet
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
That's why your able to flash older roms, you were already s-off. All others that started out with hboot 1.5 and used HTC's unlocker can't flash 2.3.3 roms and have everything work right because they can't install a 2.3.3 kernel. Since you were already s-off you must still have write capability to those locked partitions.
Well that makes sense thanks cruise for your info
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Have you been able to flash a 2.3.5 ROM. I see that some newer ROMs are being built on that?
Yeah I can flash 2.3.5 roms it will be sweet when they get sound working

You need the stock recovery
Most of the ROMs probably already have more of that crap removed then their fancy update. So by using their update you are probably installing more than you are removing. Remember the guys DEV spent weeks removing that garbage? No ? Doesn't ring a bell? ok then. Carry on..
Oh and Virus will include the update in his ROM anyway..

What is this update?

my girlfriend's phone just told her that there is an update available she has the latest software and hboot 1.5. The update is 9.3 mb. Does anyone know what this is? I downloaded it on her 3D, she is not unlocked or rooted. I rooted my 3D via 1.5 S-on HTC method. Is there a way to take it apart and analyze it. Heard rumors of random ota that revert hboot.

She still on 2.08 ? Why not update to 2.17 ? Then take root? The latest ota is 2.17 which updates a bit of stuff and removes the CIQ thingy....
Is there anything possibly in this that will help get s off? It is update. Maybe some clues. Can I upload the file via the XDA app?

I doubt it the guy that said he had a update of the such wasn't true...
His phone was a previously owned device that had S-off already the store sold him one that was returned in that 14day period...
So it was already rooted prior to him buying it.. With S-off lets you do some more playin around... The person that owned it before him had rooted it with the REV method on root... So that was how he been boucing back and forth on the hboot thing...
.... a guy can hope

From what I read newer radios offer better reception all the other stuff. I prefer to stay on the latest updates that come out. Really can't break a radio down in difference. Newer generally better .

There is other ways to update.. I prefer to wipe not the SD. Then RELOCK and use the lateset RUU 2.17 CDMA exe then redo the unlock code and flash a recovery then
fastboot boot recovery.img and wipe and flash rom

From what i heard , you dont need to relock or unroot then re-unlock, then re-root. You can just flash stock recovery and take the update, if bootloader gets locked then unlock it again.
I might be wrong but thats what i have heard.....i mean read.

For s-on Mikey has been the go to dev. He gives a lot of support to users that are s-on
You can use any ROM while S-On. I know, because I tried them. You can use fastboot with a computer for using the Flash Image GUI app (my preference) and flash the kernel by loading the rom's zip file. Use the search feature on xda and YouTube for better instructions.
Long story short, you're not restricted to Sense Roms as you might want to assume.

I'd say viper 4g, my 1st custom ROM and I was s on, lots if customizing. Tried mean bean after being in cm10, only to do pro update, and didn't like it like viper 4g. Although I hate sense period lol
