Ok, I bought a used EVO 3d that has been rooted. Right now its running miui but I need to flash it back to stock to get it switched to my account. I cannot get it to boot to recovery. He says he used the revolutionary method but when I boot to hboot it says 1.50. Everything I've read says its not possible. Hboot screen reads unlocked, shooter xc ship s-on RL, hboot-1.50.0000, emmc-boot... Do I still have root and what do I need to do to get back stock?

Got it. Please be careful when starting a new thread. :highfive:

To get back to stock, you have to relock the bootloader and then run an ruu. This will put the stock recovery on as well.
Unless you want to lose root, I don't recommend that. What I recommend you do is flash a custom recovery like 4ext our twrp and them flash a stock rooted ROM. Also, getting s-off will make flashing easier.

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.

Go into your bootloader and see if it is HBoot 1.15.

1.12. Strange as she swears she ran it.
Off the top of my head I can't remember the root method, but it was an all in one that used the HTC unlock. Now the bootloader says tampered. Recovery says development edition. Any way to change these messages?

If she saw something update it was possibly prl/profile. It should ask to run the firmware update and not just do it. Lazypanda soff then regaw's bootloader customizer will let you write whatever you please, as well as remove the red text on the splash screen.

Not yet. They're working on it though.... I think. I'd like to hope someone's still chipping away at getting it solved.
I hope so too. I can still root and unlock right.

From.what I understand this wouldn't work if he has the newest hboot. It won't allow you to ruu backwards or allow ruu when bootloader is unlocked for that matter.

That is correct, but that wasn't what he was asking. He asked if he can still unlock and root. You can unlock, but you can't S-OFF, using HTCdev.com.
So I'm s-off wire trick, jbear hboot 1.5 I believe?, I'm wondering should I update to the lates radios firmware hboot etc....or am I already not sure, what are the benefits? I'm seeing a lot of roms requiring updated stuff
Thanks you guys are great
I just read something about jbear 1.58? Mine says jbear1.5 I thought after the wire trick it flashed 1.58 or is there in updated one
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
I personally am running the latest firmware and radios since as you said, many roms are calling for them. I used the one from Freeza without the hboot: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26563118
I would also downgrade to hboot1.4 since all ROMs boot on it except for those running the newest stock kernel (which most aren't by default).

Ramjet posted them all here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30014044
The rest of the thread has good info about the different hboot versions that mpgrimm wrote, so you may want to red it.
Oh, and yes, rename to PG86IMG.zip, and boot into bootloader. This holds for both the hboot and freeza's firmware zip.

You will keep s-off. The bootloader may say Locked, but that's irrelevant since still being s-off is what's important. You don't need to unlock.

ok i have just s-offed and now i have idea how to change the HBoot... idk what to do. please inform me...
I'm pretty sure if you're s off, you've already changed your hboot.
Now you need to decide what you want to do...boot to bootloader and it will say what hboot you're on...jb needs 1.5 or lower
