Can't get evo3d "relock". any way around? - HTC EVO 3D

So, i tried to do the WireTrick and it f-ed up my phone. i lost recovery + rom and can't flash anything cuz i'm on HBOOT 1.58 S-ON. (UNLOCK HTCdev).

Sorry I may be wrong and hopefully someone will correct me if I am because I cant remember for sure but since your unlocked, you could install recovery thru bootloader with PG86100.zip. Once you get recovery then you could at least get your phone will working again...

Is there some reason you can't reinstall a recovery using adb? If you boot to bootloader, I would think you could flash your recovery image using adb commands. Then you should be able to reinstall your rom. I installed my recovery with s-on this way with no issues.
Barring that, I am not sure if the wire trick works on 1.58, I did it before I allowed my hboot to upgrade, but what happens if you try it again? Do you have anything to lose?

Just boot into bootloader, enter fastboot then in fastboot connect usb cable.
In PC you can flash downloaded recovery using "fastboot flash recovery recovery_name.img" command, just make sure that recovery image is in the same dir as fastboot.exe.

Guys, come on. I can't flash/boot recovery. that's the why i wanna relock it. when i try to boot an img, i get the msg "FAILED (remote: reproduce boot image with on-flash ramdisk error)", as far as i know it's cuz the ramdisk is empty. HELP PLEASE. lol.

Helppp!!!

read this thread. there is a command that will restore the backups in the folder with the exe file.

"(bootloader) Lock successfully..."
That line is there, more likely than not you're locked successfully. Run the RUU and see what happens

[Q] I think I flashed a corrupted RUU...please help

So I know I'm a dumb ass but here's what happened:
HTC Rezound S-off
Amon Ra 3.15
Hboot 2.27
ViperRez 1.0.3
My phone was acting a little buggy and my friend kept telling me I should flash a firmware update so I flashed
this " PH98IMG-firmware.zip - 33.02 MB " from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1835811&highlight=ruu&nocache=1
I checked the MD5 when I dl'd to PC BUT not when I copied to sd card. When flashing, all steps were successful except for 2: MDM9K - FAIL-UZ & RADIO_V2 - FAIL-UZ
I rebooted and got stuck at the white HTC screen. Battery pop and I tried to flash again. This time almost everything returned -- FAIL-PU except for the two above which still said FAIL-UZ.
Adding insult to injury I tried flashing two more RUU's from android police, I have a screenshot attached of one of my failed attempts.
ADB Devices doesn't recognize my phone but FASTBOOT devices returns a serial number. Boot loader also changes from " fastboot" to "fastboot-usb" when I plug into a PC but my PC doesn't see my phone.
I think it was a corrupted RUU because I decided to check the MD5 of a RUU on my sd card after the damage was done and it was bad. I then copied the same file over to my sd card a bunch of times, checking each MD5 and more than half the time they were bad.
I appreciate any suggestions anyone might have.
Sorry, thought I was in the Q & A section. (I already said I was a dumb ass)

Stinks to say but it looks like if you have bad blocks I don't think it can be fixed.
You can try unlocking and if it will unlock. Download a recovery. CWM. AmonRA. or TWRP. A fastboot command would be fastboot boot recovery.img or fastboot flash recovery recovery.img. Use the first command if you can't flash the recovery. If you can get a recovery to load. Flash a rom
Just an idea here. I would go here http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Vigor and down load one of the "EXE" RUU and try it. These are windows executables, so just double click on the file after downloading. Start with a ICS first and if that dont work try the GB

The .exe basically does the same thing as fastboot oem rebootRUU. Just does it for you in a GUI.
Wish I could help here but curious about something, if he some how flashed a bad dl of an ruu, which contains hboot, and radio's etc..I know that if you have a bad dl of an hboot, or radio and you flash it it would brick your phone. could it be possible he bricked his phone due to this same theory? Except by running an ruu, or could that even be a possibility when updating via ruu? Just my 2cent and ??

Can't wait to hear if it worked. But as famouscollin said, check check and triple check that MD5. A bad hboot = permanent brick

Here are some confirmed working hboots, in case you were unsure of where to get them or which to use. They are based on the latest release, but have fastboot enabled without HTCDev unlock, and have the "LOCKED" at the top replaced with various other words.
Internet's back up but I won't have a chance to play with my phone until Tuesday night, so I'll post again when I have something to report. :good:

Not good. Nothing will flash. The only thing I have left to try is some fastboot erase commands. That might be the nail in the coffin though if I lose hboot.

If your'e still around, when you say bad blocks, is that something physically wrong like fried or just that the blocks are not accessible? Even if my phone is toast, I'm still curious as to what exactly happened.
I've been rooting phones for a few years now and no matter how bad I messed up my phone, I've always been able to bring it back from the brink. I was starting to think that bricking your phone wasn't really possible. It's like your dog dying and learning about death for the first time.
That's weird, I've only seen the remote not allowed when the bootloader is locked and you are s on
Can you try and unlock even though you are s off?

A bad HBOOT will cause a bad block. I am not sure how I can explain it. But the original MD5 did not match the one you downloaded and so it was a bad flash but this time a bad flash that can't be undone.
I know this sounds crazy. But trying doing the wire trick again and if asked to flash HBOOT. Do it!

Hello,
I have tried to flash a custom ROM to my htc desire x but unfortunetly I am a almost complete noob. I have been using Desire_X_All-In-One_Kit_v2.0 in order to complete the action. The problem is that i have never rooted the fone nor i have put in the recovery into it. So basically i unlocked the bootloader and thought it would all work.Well you know yourselfs it didn't.I have been looking all over the place for a way to get my phone fixed and i found one(ima Junior member can't post links yet ( Re-flash stock ROM (RUU) after bricking a rooted device)) .I have done all the steps but in step5 i get an error

[Q] trying to fix my sisters boyfriends mistake

I purchased a EVO 4G LTE for my sister a little while back and recently she had her boyfriend attempt to root it for her, and since I'm here it obviously didn't go over all too well. All he said he did was follow a video (which he gave me) on how to root for the newer software version. "Something happened and it didn't work so I watched another video and tried that" The phone is currently unlocked with S-ON and he flashed a working version of TWRP and cm10 couldn't figure it out and here we are. help please. Rooted using Linux. i did some reading and found out i had to flash the boot.img through fastboot. it just hangs at <waiting for device> in the terminal. Apologies if this has been answered, if so please point me in the right direction.

I'm guessing it's on the latest firmware (3.16)? That update breaks the touch panel on all non-3.16 roms (which would include cm)...the only way to downgrade is to flash the tp.img from the previous firmware (3.15), which requires s-off. I would recommend going that route as it makes things a lot easier. For example, once you're s-off you won't have to fastboot flash kernels anymore. Check out the dirty racun thread in Original Development for more info. If you decide to s-off, you can flash the old tp.img zip from the 3.15 firmware to get the touch panel working for cm:
http://themikmik.com/showthread.php...dio-Collection&p=220556&viewfull=1#post220556
Otherwise, if you don't want to go s-off then you'll need to flash a sense Rom that's using the 3.16 base (which I think most if not all are now). I recommend Viper4g, runs great and has tons of tweaks like cm.

Boot into bootloader and check the radio. If its 1.12.11.1210 then he took the 3.16 OTA and your only choices are what premo15 said.

I don't know if you can just install TWRP again or if you'll have to go through the HTCdev unlock again. You'll need the Unlock_code.bin for the Dirtyracun process anyway so you might as well get it again.

I don't know if this will work since you've already tried dirtyracun; but I just used this method to achieve s off. It's ridiculously easy, and took me 5 minutes..

alright, some progress, got my unlock from HTCDEV got the unlock token, restarted the whole S-OFF process over,got through the ruu.zip. it installed, It rebooted itself instead of allowing me to "sudo ./fastboot reboot bootloader." It booted to a stock rom (which is now 3.15), I was in shock that I had her phone working again. restarted to bootloader, noticed it was locked and s-on went back to the directions and had me unlock through the unlock_token and finall had me run "sudo ./RabiesShot...which is giving me errors.

[Q] Problem with recovering from brick due to bootloader

Hello Amaze thread. I flashed jose's Dark Glass ROM based off of CM10.1 and one day my phone turned off and wouldn't boot. I went into recovery and it goes into safe mode because the internal memory card is unreadable, tells me to wipe, etc. but it gives me junk errors. My issue is similar to the issue of someone else in another thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773723(which was resolved)], but I'm not having such an easy time fixing my problem. When I go into the bootloader and try to flash my RUU from mobilicity by changing it's name to PH85IMG, the blue bar fills up, it says "parsing..." but then it goes back to the bootloader. Does anyone know what is going wrong? Thanks in advance to all you helpful people. Sorry if I violated any rules in this post.
Details: S-OFF + bootloader is unlocked
Edit1: I read that my bootloader had to be locked in order to reflash RUU. I relocked it using Hasoon's all-in-one-tool but the zip file would still go back into bootloader after the blue bar fills up. The zip isn't parsing. I also tried using Hasoon's tool to reflash the RUU. Bootloader says re-locked (still s-off) but it still doesn't work. The CMD spits out this:

In order to flash RUU you will need to be unlocked bootloader because it rejects all time when you try to flash RUU.
So first unlock it and after that try to put ruu on SDcard and then go into recovery .
It will work for sure.
Hit thanks if I helped you !!!

Hi, it still didn't work. Tried it while the bootloader was unlocked and again while it was relocked. It doesn't get past the "parsing" stage. I tried it with two different SD cards already btw and I also checked the MD5 checksum. They match. No luck for me.

[Q] Bricked(?) DNA - Locked, S-On, no recovery, stuck at fastboot

I'm somewhat of a noob at this - this is my first HTC, so I had no idea what S-Off or unlocked bootloader meant. With my Samsung, rooting and installing a custom recovery involved a one-click method, so I never had to learn all the ins and outs of this stuff. With this DNA, I used the revone method (since the phone was purchased with 2.06 firmware already installed), so I still didn't need to learn much.
Anyway, I recently tried to go back to stock. I figured that would involve an RUU, going back to S-On, and locking the bootloader. So I first (yes, before performing the RUU like a dodo) used revone to go back to S-On, then found something saying I needed to execute "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3", so I did that, and now I am stuck at fastboot. I don't have access to CWM recovery, and if I try to boot beyond fastboot it hangs on the initial HTC screen.
Without being able to use ADB since it doesn't boot that far, I can't go back to S-Off via revone. I can't flash anything that I have been able to find so far via fastboot because it fails at signature verification. And I can't use the RUU that I found because it is firmware 1.15 and it won't allow me to install on top of 2.06.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? Is there a way to get to S-Off through fastboot? Is there an RUU for the 2.06 firmware? I have spent a few days searching and the answer to both seems to be no...
UPDATE: I grabbed the Rom.zip out of the 1.15 RUU and tried flashing that via fastboot (in RUU mode). I got the following message:

I assume this has something to do with the firmware version difference (1.15 vs. 2.06). But I was very excited to see a signature check be successful for once.
I should note that the ROM I was running when doing this was Newt's NOS m7 v 3.0.6
When selecting recovery from the fastboot menu, it does nothing?
If that's a yes... You need s-off again.

It doesn't do nothing per se, it shows a screen that I'm not used to with a red triangle and exclamation point on top of a picture of a phone with a blue background. I assume this is the recovery screen from the factory, not the CWM recovery I had installed previously.
Is there a way to get s-off without ADB (only using fastboot)?

I successfully flashed the firmware zip from the moonshine thread, but the phone still will not boot past fastboot. I assume since the instructions for moonshine require the phone to be booted to android, this option will not work for me.

I've been thinking about this. Why did the firmware zip from Moonshine pass signature inspection? Was it signed? Could that same signature be placed on a rom or some other zip that installs a recovery or even somehow performs s-off? I know I am not very well experienced with android development, so I'm probably talking out of my ass.
I recently flashed the RUU from fastboot.

Then your pretty much out of luck. Need to exchange it or possibly do a jtag. Does your phone say tampered/relocked? If so then I'd guess Jtag is the only solution.
Unfortunately the guide you used to go back to stock was pretty dumb in telling you make your phone s-on again. It isn't needed especially if it was just so you could do a clean install and flash other roms.
I was in your situation, but I was lucky enough to have unlocked my phone using htcdev when Jcase released his original unlock method. If the super cid method still works. I would unlock my bootloader the super cid method and not even bother with moonshine. That way you end up with a unlock token and wouldn't get stuck in this situation.

Nothing was wrong with the guide. He didn't follow it correctly as he did s-on using revone.
Flashing the firmware zip should allow you to boot up and run moonshine. Are you sure it flashed correctly.

Correct, the guide was not at fault here, I am just an idiot. Here are the results of flashing the dna2.06firmware.zip file from the moonshine thread: http://pastebin.com/GkgdGt19
Following what is shown at this link, I executed "fastboot reboot-bootloader", selected "Power Down", and then tried to turn the phone on again. I got the same result as always (stuck on the initial HTC quietly brilliant screen - not the bootanimation screen).
Spoke with beaups on IRC. I was running a 4.2 rom that will not run on the stock kernel. Since the only thing I can flash is the signed stock kernel because I am s-on, the only remaining option is to run a 2.06 RUU. However, the 2.06 RUU has not been leaked to anyone's knowledge. So I will have to send off for jtag in order to get s-off, then flash whatever - RUU, custom ROM, what-have-you.
Thanks all for trying to help. I will hang on to it for a while if anyone has any other thoughts or suggestions.

I talked to beaups last night about the same thing... Hes a good guy. I'm in the exact same boat. I hope there is a break through on this but if not I guess JTAG is our only option. Let me know if you figure anything out jdpalmer, i'd really appreciate it.
