I was coming from CM9 Devil's Toast and trying to update to 7.2. it was freezing at startup. eventually i was able to reload my older cm version. at this point in time i was on hboot 1.04 s-off eng and the older radio... .09 or something. I pulled he firmware zip from Android Revolution HD 2.00 and since i have gotten endless bootloops no matter what i've done. i've tried flashing stock kernal through 4ext using the stock_kernal.zip from the sticky. i've tried reloading 2 different back ups and 3 new roms... all i get is endless boot loop ... please someone, anyone have a suggestion?

Try mean ROM. It is built for the new hboot. Be sure to do a full wipe first. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1645211

Or, since you're s-off (you wrote "s-of", but I imagine you meant s-off), you can put an older bootloader like 1.40 or the eng 1.04 and just restore back to DevilToast. I installed the new firmware including the new hboot and all my restores would bootloop. But once I put the eng 1.04 bootloader back on and restored, all is well.
Here's a link with both of those hboots...

i am s-off. i put 1.04 back on it and i still cant flash a new rom or restore an old backup.

From what I've been reading we need hboot 1.58
To flash the sprint ics. And have to downgrade
To hboot 1.40 to flash back to all other roms.

I believe so. You may even be able to downgrade to hboot 1.4 I believe.

I always hit the damn thanks button instead of the quote! You got a free thanks
Anyways, go this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192306 and download the SHIP 1.40 hboot (unless you want the ENG one, then download that). Follow the instructions in that post, and flash it. Just a simple PG86IMG.zip.
This guy did the same thing as you, and had success rolling back to 1.40. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17993045&postcount=97
Good luck.

evo 3d cdma RUU

hello all
my phone is bugging out and some one suggested to flash the latest RUU.
- quick question.
---if i flash the latest RUU will i loose root?
Yes you will lose root.
thank you.
Quick question ............
-how can i flash a RUU that has the Hboot of 1.4 instead of a 1.5.
(can some one please help me my phone randomly reboots on any rom, i was recommended to flash a RUU and then unlock again)
If your current HBoot is 1.50 with S-ON you can't downgrade the Hboot, at all. You won't be able to flash a lower Firmware/baseband than what's currently installed either, but you can reflash the RUU for what's installed or a newer one.
If you have HTC Unlocked HBoot 1.50 and S-ON, you can get more info that may help you in the Guide/Flashing notes in my signature.
Edit: Saw your question in the other section that you have Hboot 1.40. Disregard

hboot 1.5 vs 1.4 RUU

hello all
i am trying to flash a RUU to my evo 3d cdma.
i have recently flashed a radio update and its causing chaos oh my phone. my phone will reboot constantly on any rom that i flash. i was recommended by some one on this forum to flash the latest RUU.
i have an Hboot 1.4 and i dont want to loose it. as per the recommendation i was told to flash a 1.5 RUU and then it will be back to normal.
my questions...................
-whats the difference between an Hboot 1.4 vs 1.5
-is there a latest RUU with hboot 1.4 (or whats the last update for hboot 1.4)
-i have read that the 1.5 is mush more step to flash a rom.
-if i flash a RUU that has 1.5 hboot will i keep my s-off and will i be able to flash a 1.5 hboot?
can some one please help me.
Just reflash your old radio to see if that will help.

Did you do a backup before you flashed? Can you restore from backup? I'd flash the old radio as laie1472 suggested, if nothing else. Messing with radios can mess a phone up.

[Q] Hboot 1.57.000 back to 1.40.000

Somehow well i know how flashed my hboot to the new 1.57.0000 and i want to go back to 1.40.0000. my device is still S-off, and says locked above that. Bootloader is dated 4-20-12.
Here is the bigger problem i cant flash any roms except the one that was on the there when i flashed the wrong radio file turns out it was the newest OTA. I had downloaded both to look at them and renamed the wrong one. It crashed before it got all the way finished. but i did get the new bootloader and couple other firmware bits.
It still is rooted but i get loads of boot loops when after i flash any rom.
this one works Newts_one_S_RC3_signed. which is a ICS Rom.

Im starting to think the boot loop may be a kernel that is not working with these other roms

[Q] BootLoops on STOCK 2.89 hboot1.58 S-ON after RUU....

I have had this phone for 9 months in this state.. i had Negalite Blue 1.09 installed. it messed up and started to bootloop. so i did my normal fix. SetMainVerLOW and flashed the stock 2.89 RUU. but this time rather than fix my problem, it has stayed with a bootloop. i searched high and low, and ANY fix i found involved getting S-OFF. unfortunately i CAN'T because i cannot boot. I relocked, then unlocked. i tried CWM, 4EXT, TWRP recoveries. tried stock rooted ROM, MeanROM, negalite, and nothing... EVERYTHING bootloops.. I DON'T want to get rid of the phone as it is the best i have been able to afford, but i am afraid that it may not have any fix..:crying: PLEASE tell me,HOW CAN I FIX THIS???.... Again, currently Relocked, S-ON, HBOOT 1.58 and freshly flashed 2.89 RUU.
Use Ultimate recovey tool, downgrade hoot to 1.4, install ruu 1.13. Then s-off with revolutionary. Then install ruu 2.89 when s-off
