Hi all i just tryed the root method for gsm, i have now unlocked bootloader and s-on with 1.58 and ota update to ics. All went well but i cannot for the love of me get into recovery i have used your image an tryed another 1 but i either get it stuck on the htc emblem or it just boots normal. How long should it stay on the htc emblem, most i let it sit was about 15 minutes. Any help will be much appreciated.
Cheers

Which root method? Htc-dev + rooted sense rom ?
Did you intall a custom recovery like 4ext?
Did you choose recovery in bootloader ?
Normally it should just stay a few seconds in the htc screen...

I got unlock fine via htc unlock and installed 2 different recoverys and then go back to recovery it just sits on the htc emblem or boots normal.i have done this over a dozen times with reboots inbetwen and with no reboots So in the end i cant get root as i cant get to recovery. I have seen this qestion asked a few times on different sites to get no answer so as i said earlier any help would be appreciated.

Are you sure you are gsm? because the 1.58 hboot is for cdma.
It is the model x515m and every where i google it states its gsm.i can turn cdma on and when im in a telstra 3g area i get reception,i dont know if that means anything.
android 4.0.3
sense 3.6
software 3.28.720.1
h boot 1.58
unlocked
s-on

Have you using fastboot? Try fastboot flash recovery recovery.img where that's the name of the recovery file.
Coal tryed that idea allready ,what gets me is adb tells me it was successful with the recovery install but then just boots like normal or stays on the htc emblem.i have seen a few ppl with the same problem on evohacks but again no one can answer the question for any of us.From what i gathered the htc dev unlock was the hardest bit with ppl having problems but that part went smooth as for me.
Cheers
John
I have even uninstalled htc sync to try but still no luck.
Have you try to flash another recovery like cwm or twrp?
Or try re download the recovery.img file, I'm suspecting the recovery file maybe corrupt.. Btw are you sure your devices gsm? AFAIK 1.58xxx should be CMDA, GSM is 1.53xxx..

So here is how it all happen...i had this on metro pcs but upgraded to Epic 4G touch on metro also and now when i tried to get into recovery but will only reboot back to android os over and over when i tried to get into recovery so what i did was pretty stupid. I installed or initiated twrp recovery through hoot and i did a full wipe(when i meant full wipe i meant every option in there that i could wipe) and after that i tried rebooting the phone back but now its stuck in the HTC logo and will not go any where so i tried to install a stock ruu with unlocked 1.50 hboot but cant pass the second process of updating the ruu file, it just says checking pg86img.zip with the gold status bar all the way up then just kicks me back to the hboot option menu so im confuse and don't now what else to do. I tried 3 different shooter stock ruu but none else works or i should just sell the damn phone for really cheap(like 40-50 bucks)and let somebody deal with it.
Edit: i just relocked the hboot and now its says relocked and another word under that saying security warning but still it would not install the ruu's
Edit 2: ok got it to install the stock Rom by using the .exe instead of the zip.

One of the reasons why you couldn't get into recovery is because you forgot to turn off fastboot

Cmon...i had it off first and then on still nothing but i already got it working. Im not a total noob. I posted only a few times but i ve flashed several phone searching through this site and other ones also.
So I tried flashing MeanRom the ics version onto the Evo 3d, and it flashed it. But every time it booted into the lock screen it rebooted itself. So I tried going back to the back up I made. But did not work, tried flashing a different rom but did not work also. It will go into recovery which was twrp but switched it to Ext4. So whatever I try it will just go into the HTC logo and get stuck there. I am at a loss, Please Help.
I will keep trying, but I'm running out of ideas
it does have s-on
hboot 1.50.0000
u r s-on so u need to flash the boot.img by the fastboot

I had this exact same issue after trying to flash Myn's ICS ROM with Touch Recovery on 1.5 s-on..How I was finally able to fix it was to delete the 4 ext folder off my SD card. Then I booted into fastboot and pushed TWRP recovery back onto my phone and flashed a gingerbread rom. If you need help pushing the recovery via fastboot, this thread is the answer. Be sure to give JTNiggle some thanks.

Doesn't EXT4 Touch Recovery take care of that for you? That was my impression. Off topic, I know..
evo rebooting
yes 4ext recovery takes care of that and you guys should be using it and make sure you have smart flash enable
I did try flashing a gingerbread rom with twrp but didn't work, which is why I flashed ext4

Well I used the dumlock method, which should have helped me flash the rom without manually going into my computer to flash via cmd right?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
Happens to me too!
To flash a new ROM, go to your computer, Command Prompt , type in the direction of your recovery. ex= cd\evo3dTWRP, then type in "fastboot boot recovery.img (or whatever the name of your recovery img is), press enter and your phone should boot into Recovery. Wipe all data, then flash ROM.
BTW: Do you have Smartflash Enabled in 4EXT,?
Well bootloader is working and the recovery is too, I used twrp but noticed it wasn't working so I flashed 4ext. But for some reason it won't boot up roms (of any kind) or even restore my backup. The recoveries will restore or flash the rom. But once I reboot the phone it will just get stuck on the HTC logo. Yeah smartflash is and was enabled.

If you're trying to install an ICS ROM, they tend to bootloop for most who are s-on. I recommend you get s-off.

Hi Guys,
I have S-off, Super CID and Hboot 1.93 was working fine with the 4ext recovery and a Nighmare ICS ROM.
Today I just accessed the SuperSu and it asked me for binary installation.
one was normal and other was from CWM/TWRP. I choosed CWM/TWRP method. Since then I can only See HTC Screen.
tried using reflashing of recovery same 4ext and also tried the TWRP 2.3.
Nothing Seems to be working. When i restart in a normal mode it goes to the Nightmare startup HTC screen and it again restarts back to white HTC screen and there after I don't see movement.
Is it possible that it can be bricked in S-off mode ?? or what has really happen.
Now I can only access bootloader, Please do help me, what should I do. I have been trying using the All in one tool..

Hello all, and thank you for taking your time to attempt to help me with my problem.
I could not find a solution even after hours of researching and trial and error, so please forgive me if this happens to be one of those problems that are seemingly impossible to solve, when the actual solution is really quite simple! I'm hoping it is at the very least...
A few days ago I received an HTC Evo 3d from a family member.
I'm certain that the phone was completely stock, never rooted, no custom ROMs ---- just an ordinary HTC 3vo.
So I decide that I'm going to go ahead and find the steps necessary in order to flash a custom ROM, and I believe I did with this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1889438
I followed the guide, and eventually got to "***Step3: Perform JuopunutBear (wire trick) to get S-OFF status" where I had a little difficulty with the timing of the taps on the SD card. At one point I removed the battery from my phone because I thought it was stuck on the screen with the green arrow pointing downward, and after trying to reboot I found that the same JuopunutBear screen with the green arrow was still there.
I removed the battery once more, but this time when booting I held the volume down button to initiate bootloader. That went successfully, and so after trying the methods I found at http://unlimited.io/jbtroubleshooting.htm to remove this screen, I figured that I might try and flash a ROM from recovery and maybe that would fix it?xD My logic proved only half correct because even after formatting data/cache/dalvik, and then flashing a few different ROMs (not in the order of course) to see if any of them would allow the phone to boot up completely into OS, the phone is now stuck in a bootloop :'(
If I didn't provide enough information in the above description then I'd be glad to give any more details.
My bootloader reads like this:
- Juopunutbear -
SHOOTER XC SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.57.5757
eMMC-boot
Apr 20 2012, 17:39:22
^ Never noticed that the date is inaccurate before typing all of this out! Not sure that has anything to do with my problem here, but still interesting..
Thank you again for taking your time to help me.
This phone has given me trouble since it was first given to me lol.
The first issue before rooting or anything was with the inability to use wifi!
I ended up having to buy service for the phone to even register my Gmail account..
You're in good shape
With s off you can recover easily.
The question is what do you want to run?
If you're going to stay ics sense, then you'll just need to format all partitions except sd and flash a Rom
If you want to run a jb Rom, you need to downgrade your hboot to the jbear 1.50

Thank you for the reply
I'll try flashing different sense ROMs specifically,
and see if it will boot all the way through to the home screen.
Have you installed a recovery?
I suggest 4ext
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
I have installed a recovery, and it just happens to be 4ext!
I've been installing my ROMs by toggling usb storage in recovery, placing the ROM on the root of my microSD, and after disconnecting from usb storage I proceed to flash the chosen ROM, provided I've already wiped everything.
My trouble usually comes afterward when the ROM has completed it's installation and I go to reboot. Every time I've tried so far I've encountered a bootloop :/ But we'll see this time!
Gotcha
You'll get it sorted
What Rom are you trying now?
Sometimes you need to flash the boot.IMG after the Rom, but that usually only happens if youre s on.
If it still bootloops I would try this next:
Boot to recovery
Wipe all partitions
Reboot recovery
Wipe all partitions again
Flash Rom
Reboot phone
If all else fails you can run the ruu (will return u to stock Rom and recovery) and you will keep s off but will need to install recovery again.

I chose Team d3rp - Lights Out just to see if it would work, and to my surprise it did!!!
I wiped everything but my sd manually once,
and after flashing the ROM, the aroma installer gave the option to wipe again so I did.
After a suspenseful minute or two during the reboot, I finally got everything set up!
I can't thank you enough..!!
I'm not sure if I should make another thread or not, but the only problem I see now is with the wifi.
I have it connected to my network, and it's showing full signal,
but I can't access the internet and 3g doesn't even pick up when wifi is on.
If needed I'll make another thread, but I figured I would ask just in case!
I appreciate all the help so far.

You can only flash sense based ROMs with that h-boot. Since you're s-off just downgrade your h-boot to 1.49.0007 or 1.49.1107 and you can flash anything you want

Hello guys ive been spending days following tutorials on trying to get this phone back, so i got this phone for free, my mate owned it he tried run a custom rom after unlocking it but it got stuck in a boot loop, so i ended up with it. When i got it i tried to install different roms but they all got in a boot loop which i think i read it was because it was s-on and hboot-1.53, so i read about RUU's so i relocked the phone using the commander the phone now says relocked, i tried a bunch of different RUU's but all of them failed. I then tried to goldcard the SD card, so i first formated it, but cant get past the stage to get the CID as the usb debugging isnt enabled so it wont connect with htc sync and when i you the command window and do the adb devices it will not recognise the phone. So i tried to unlock the phone again but now every time i try doing it it keeps failing, i cant get access to any codes so i cant get a new unlock_code.bin so i got the unlock_code.bin from my mate but failed. signature verify failed. Basically i just want to get this phone working, it is
OPTUS001
SHOOTER_U
HBOOT-1.53.0007
RADIO-11.25.3504.06_M
OpenDSP-vo.2.6.0.2226.00.0202
i dont know if any of that information is helpful if anyone can help me get this phone working the gratitude will be high as its been wrecking my brain the past few days.

No recovery, from what he told me he didnt back anything up, just done a whipe, i dont think i can install a rom though since the phone is in relock mode and cant get it to unlock again, is there an RUU that will work? the ones i tried all failed
Will the rom install if i put it on the main section of the sd card and re-name the rom PG86IMG?
ok ignore what i previously wrote, i reinstalled gsmevo3droot and was able to use the old unlock_code.bin to reunlock the phone now i can access recovery again, i then installed the rom you suggested then took the boot image out and done the fastboot boot boot.img, phone is working thankyou so much
