OK.. Brand new Rezound. I used Hasoon's All-In-One Kit and I was able to unlock and install the CWM (GB). But I was unable to do anything else. I am looking to just get Root for some programs I like.
But now I thing something went terribly wrong when I tried load a new PH98IMG.zip. I got in the bootloader (power+vol down) and I see:
**** Unlocked ****

Oct 6 2011, 15:43:22
Memory Card contents: PH98IMG.zip, GB Firmware Patch.zip and Vigor_Stock_Doedexed_3.14.605.5.zip
**Note: I have yet to register this phone with Verizon**
At startup, with the memory card in it will allow me to boot into a screen called HBOOT where I can select FastBoot, Recovery, etc.. It then starts the upgrade process and says Done! so I reboot. After the second HTC screen flashes the screen goes blank and does nothing else.
I removed the memory card and attempted a Factory Reset, but nothing seems to work.
Thoughts? Help?? I am new at this but was successful on my previous Rezound so I am not sure whats going on here.
Appreciate it.
OK. Loaded Vigor and the GB Firmware but not PH98IMG.zip to the SD Card and used Recovery to flash.
Rebooted the phone and am now at the 4GLTE screen. Hoping it gets further, but now that I have gotten there, should I use the Bootloader to run PH98IMG.ZIP?
*** UPDATE ***
Ok.. I went ahead and copied the PH98IMG.ZIP and updated via bootloader and it all works now.. Wow.. What a pain in the arse!!
Please Help
I used the HTC unlock method, had a custom Rom, went to install an ICS Rom got a bootloop.
Decided to downgrade to HBOOT 1.4. I followed the guide here at XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1563342
Until I got to the part where I am supposed to brick it. I have downloaded the 2.17 RUU.zip renamed it to PG86IMG.zip checked to make sure the file name is correct, once i copied to the phone and loaded my phone in bootloader it would just check the PG86IMG.zip and do nothing , it DOES NOT ask me to update. Ss this because when I reboot into android it says..
in Settings, ABOUT PHONE it says I have Software number 2.17.651.5
other info on my phone is:
Android 2.3.4
Sense 3.0
Software Number 2.17.651.5
in the bootloader my phone says
Relocked
Shooter XC SHIP S-ON RL

Somewhere in the process I downloaded the 2.17 RUU in exe format and ran it from windows. at that point I didn't have a working ROM since I had tried the ICS ROM and bootlooped.
What can I do from here I'm stuck any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
[Q] Evo 3D that hates me!!! ROOT s-OFF and unlock bootloader cant select yes
Hi all, im a newbie to android rooting etc, so please be patient if I dont understand... XD
I will try to give a backround with a very detailed discription for those who might have the same problem, a similar problem or for those trying to help...
so I bought this beast in Feb with stock software on: this was my 1st root, s-off attempt :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2130585
1st attempt quote from post
Hi there,
Developers, gonna be developers and android noobs
I got a small issue with mu EVO 3d GSM...
Firstly Id like to apologize if this has been asked...
Problem: I need to get past BOOTLOADER BLOCK !!!
Before you carry on reading -
Bought this phone online, from China, Original HTC!!! but with 1 or 2 chinese apps installed, Android 2.3.4...
This was standard when I first entered bootloader (out of the box)
***LOCKED***
SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-OFF RH
HBOOT-1.49.0012
RADIO-10.13.9020.08_2M
eMMC-boot
What is suprising is it needed to say Locked and s-on...
So I wanted to root and s-off...
Tried Revolutionary... Everything ran well, after 2nd reboot into bootloader, error - Communications between phone and PC has been interrupted
After that I retried and it said - 'Your device is already s-off' then it wanted to download and install CWM Recovery 4.0.142 Revolutionary...
HTCDEV - Step 13 didnt happen, it just stayed on the normal bootloader screen (in Fastboot USB)
Flashed a earlier version of HBOOT (1.49.007) before Revolutionary ROOT method(revolutionary didnt support HBOOT 1.49.0012), i noticed everytime i 'completed' revolutionary method with error, my HBOOT changed to 1.49.1107 for some reason, IDK
Now my bootloader setup is:
***Revolutionary***
SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-OFF RH
HBOOT-1.49.1107
RADIO-10.13.9020.08_2M
eMMC-boot
In CWM Recovery - I flashed SU.zip, it removed /bin and /xbin, and wanted to start copying or rooting file and then showed an error msg 'installation aborted', booted into ROM and SU app requested SU access???
BTW... downloaded and tried 3 RUU's all 3 for 3d of course and all 3 gave the same error - MODEL ID ERROR (i need the correct model) and in fastboot...
Use same Rev code : fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlcok_code.bin
Half the time it is done successfully but with no disclaimer screen (stays on fastboot) and changes hboot to 1107
OR
Gives error (Remote : Partition no avaiblable) or (Remote : not allowed)
Try fastboot oem lock, Doesnt lock and same result as mentioned above and every now and then it says loading custom splash sceen failed, htc disclaimer screen???
If anyone has had this problem or similar, please help, I would really appreciate it
Thnks in advance!!!
END
Now, Ive got a similar problem,
HBoot
1.58.5858 Jpbear
Unlocked
So I flashed the RUU_Shooter_U_TWM_TW_1.23.921.5_Radio_10.55.9020.00_10.13.9020.29_M_release_207920_signed.exe, it was the closest I could find with HBoot 1.49.0012 and gb 2.3.4...
Okay, np it flashed it with no problems... but little did I know, I lost root, bootloader relocked with disclaimer screen and lost s-off... Im buggered
So after messing around including almost bricking my phone, flashing new hboots, trying htcdev unlock with rogers, EMEA and sprint, no luck...
The only result is it showing the disclaimer screen (as mentioned in 1st boot attempt) that i cant select yes...
I tried flashing recovery, however when I flash recovery, it either hangs with HTC screen for a min or two then reboots or just hangs there forever...
Somewhere along the line I tried booting into Android and it jut boot in fastboot, for some unknown reason it also didnt pickup the PG86IMG.zip file I had on, it actually didnt pickup and PG86IMG files???
I also came across writesecureflag 3 in fastboot, gave it a try and it gave me a ***security warning***...
After that, I coud flash a PG86IMG but when I tried the htcdev unlock, I select ye, no response, removed battery and it said ***unlocked***, but when I flash a recovery, it flashes recovery in cmd but cant boot into it or it just doesnt flash onto the phone???
Somehow in between all of this I could get past the "yes" in unlock bootloader which was pure luck of the joy of the moment made me forget what I did before, I also tried flashing these RUU's
RUU_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.28.401.1_Radio_11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M_release_262714_signed
RUU_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_Rogers_WWE_3.28.631.1_Radio_11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M_release_262715_signed(1)
RUU_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_3.28.707.1_Radio_11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M_release_264110_signed
When booted in TWN-TW RUU, I could install Rom manager and flash CWM through that but through fastboot, it didnt boot through it
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot boot recovery.img
RESULT: hangs on htc screen for a min or 2 then reboot into OS
Now im currrently on Asia ICS, hboot jbear 1.58.5858, htc recovery...
And in want of root, s-off, and most important able to Unlock Bootloader by selecting yes with a response,
please ANY help would be of use
thnx in advance
Its not much but will have a small paypal reward for those who helped (btw it will prob help others aswel)

wow, you got a used or refurbished 3d which was already s-off. if you had posted before doing anything ,all you needed to do was flash a recovery and flash su zip. When you have s-off with custom hboot, like you had, you cannot unlock through htcdev and you don't have to. S-off with custom hboot means you can already flash any hboot ,recovery,Rom ,kernel or any mods.
You never needed HTC dev unlock.
you said.you are s-on with jbear.hboot? I.don't think.that's possible ,.check again if it's s-off or s-on . If it's s-on then it cannot be jbear.
You never lost s-off when you ran the RUU, you lost s-off by running the write secureflag command . It was your luck you were on stock.hboot , if you were on custom one,your evo 3d was dead for sure. Now flash the RUU that is made for your phone. then follow instructions from unlimited.io or ramjet73's thread , flash recovery then su zip. If you want another Rom you can directly flash that Rom without su.
Again, you never needed the htcdev. But now you will need it for the wire trick.
Thnx for responding, u made my day xD

So, okay, I messed around abit more, not as if I could do any further damage besides bricking LOL
So this is my position and will leave it till next response...
***Relocked*** (can unlock, relock np because of s-on, if s-off, I cant, it just hangs after selecting yes, no response)
HBoot 1.49.0012
I have fastboot and OS access,
cant flash recovery or zip, etc, can change cid
Hboot doesnt read PG86IMG.zip files at all,
Goes through PG86... list, hangs 2 sec on PG86IMG.zip, says checking or parsing PG86IMG.zip for less than a sec then 'cancels', goes to hboot screen
Rev tool does not work
1st attempt - (1st line)Zerging root...
result- Cannot aquire root
for 2nd consecutive to 3,4,5,etc attempt
- goes to 2nd line in rev tool,
result gives error Communications with phone stopped,
When flashing recovery, it flashes perfectly, when fastboot boot recovery.img or hboot>recovery, hangs for a while then reboots
So flashing files through fastboot is a no go (generally gives error > remote:not allowed)
Thus conclusion, im considering the downgrade/unbrick method but It doesnt pickup and PG86IMG files (check exact speeling p.s. have done this alot)
I did a day ago aquire root, 4ext recovery but wanted unlock boot loader, so s-on, the only way to unlock, then got myself to this delema, stupid I know :silly:
So if you have any tricks up your sleeve, let me know please and thnx

So the problem here is that my Evo 3D GSM bootloops no matter what i flash. I can get in to HBOOT and Fastboot but can't get in to recovery, or boot a rom. I tried flashing various versions of cwm and 4EXT and none seem to work. I boot to HBOOT select recovery but it just goes back to bootlooping. Tried flashing various roms (had Viper3D for like a month and then one night it started bootlooping), even tried flashing a RUU multiple times but the bootloop goes on. And since that didn't help i unlocked again and downgraded HBOOT. For a period of time the phone didn't boot but that was because the battery is drained and can't charge when off, so I'm using a Desire X battery.

Any ideas would be helpfull.
I don't know what ruu you need, but you need to make sure its right.
Then without hooking your phone up, run ruu on windows.
Let it load up, the go to run and type %temp%
In the window that pops up, look for the newest folder, that will contain a file named rom.zip drag it to your desktop.
Rename it pg86img.zip
Now, you need to get that file to the root of your sd card, use a card reader, another phone, something.
Make sure it is the only pg86img.zip on your card.
Once you have the pg86img.zip on your sd, put it back in your EVO, and boot to bootloader. Accept the update and it should do the rest.
Do no relock before you do this. It is not necessary.
When you finally get booted remove that file or rename it.
Hope that gets you going

Sorry for taking so long to reply, didn't have the time until now. I tried your method and it still didn't work
Though this I might try but I'm not too cozy with having to brick my device and i have no Linux experience. Not much else I can try...
Also is there a way to get back S-ON, because a while ago I sent the phone to repairs but they rejected my warranty because of s-off and revolutionary. Is my warranty still valid even if I revert back?
are you sure recovery is flashed ok? drivers may be the issue. try reinstalling drivers and running RUU or flashing recovery
In my htc desire 700 dual sim 709d, I replaced previously copied build.prop file overwriting new one. restarted device and it stuck at htc logo with black screen after it. unable to find stock rom. tried one or two but they resulted mismatches. I'm able to enter the bootloader menu but no stock recovery and even found cwm recovery not working. Boot loader is ready to lock/unlock it is unlocked now. my device wast rooted when it was ok. for a long time I am also seeking for s-off and super CID. tried one or two methods but it says lower hboot version.
Now I think the only way seems that I have to upgrade hboot for s-off and super CID only.
Q-1- My question is that which, how and from where I can get hboot for up gradation?
Q-2- How to s-off and get super CID?
Q-3- Which step of both the questions required to be perform first or kindly help with complete steps and methods to gain s-off and super cid.
details of my device is given below:-
Bootloader - UNLOCKED

HBOOT- 0.31.0000
OS- 1.85.720.2
