Update question - HTC EVO 3D

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

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.

Thanks just one more thing, flashing a new hboot won't turn my s-off to on will it?
I just want to be safe I don't want s-off or have to unlock again

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.

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...

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 .

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.

Help HTC EVO 3d hboot 1.5 miui

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?

Sent from my PC36100 using xda app-developers app
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.

Is it safe to flash new OTA radios in cm10?

I've gotten a hold of the radio for the new 8/29 OTA, but I'm holding off on flashing them because I don't want to brick my device. I've looked around different websites and no one seems to give a straightforward answer. Can someone tell me if this is safe and the risks I'm running if I flash the new radio.
I've flashed the new radios on AOKP and everything is running just fine, you should be OK by flashing the radios on CM10 because flashing radios aren't ROM dependent. As long as your S-Off you'll be alright

I think you need to be S-OFF to flash radios but I could be wrong you should ask in the Captain Throwbacks radio thread
EDIT: Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704612
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I tried it and got nothing. I think the reason is because the dumlock only gives you access to the boot partition. I'm pretty sure the radios are in a different partition. Looks like I'll have to wait for an exploit. I was a little late to root so I'm on hboot 1.15

Well hopefully it works out for you I'm sure these Devs will find a way around it
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
If you are on boot 1.15 and son you can't flash radios. Only way to do it would be to ruu.
And you don't want that

Back to stock method?

Is there a back to stock method for the 1.58 hboot for the Htc evo v 4g? Or could I just get away with flashing a stock unrooted rom and the stock recovery? I might have to get a replacement evo v 4g because I'm pretty sure I'm having a hardware malfunction so in which case I'll have to send the current one I have back. So any help would be appreciated.
