Hello guys,
For over 24hours I have been working with my EMEA EVO3d to install a custom JB ROM. I have had lots of trouble and it seems that it was because of absence of my knowledge about this phone&CWM and Security ON/OFF
Anyway, after those long 24hour period, I have learned many things but there is a big problem, I can not boot my phone to a working Android, not even ICS ones. I am having boot loops whatever ROM I install. (tried miui original, ParanoidAndroid, LeeDroid ...) After installing ROM's with CWM, i did flashing boot.img from the zip file.
Current information about my phone :
1. Unlocked via htcdev way.
2. S-ON
3. ClockWorkMod 5.8.0.2 Touch
All of those are working flawlesly, i can run into FastBoot, CWM Recovery to install zip.
After struggling a real 12hours of work, I have an idea, I am at HBoot 1.53.007 and it is causing those boot loops. As I can not boot a ROM I am forced to use brick and wire methods but I dont feel doing that is safe for me. Also there is a cover in the back off my phone that i can not remove to use wire on one of places (not the metal one over SDCard)
So what I am looking for is a working ROM with HBoot 1.53.007, I guess I can do S-OFF with software (for example ext4)
By the way, I have got fastboot, adb, files, I can get into FASTBOOT USB screen bla bla.
Hope someone can help me so that i can get back my phone
Thanks

Yes, you have problems because you are on 1.53.0007. I had them too. But, I realized that I didn't see that anyone bricked their phone using "wire-trick", so I said to myself "Fu*k it, I'm gonna try it". So, I found thread, and followed what it says. Now, I flash ROMs on daily base, and don't have any problems with my phone..Here is THREAD with pictures (there were no pictures when I s-offed my phone) (Tip: First of all, read whole thread, so you can find if everything is prepared for s-off..It's not hard)
What do you mean "cover"..One use "wire-trick" with metal over SIM card and PIN like one on the picture:

today i have realized that, when i was working with some ROM's, somehow my phone USB debugging disabled. So, every way of disabling security is kinda impossible including easiest way on that thread.

i think my phone is software bricked but couldnt found a way of unbricking. Tried shipped roms too.
Any help will be appriciated.
Just relock your bootloader, then install officialy ics ruu file with pc..and boot normaly. After that u can unlock bootloader,install recovery, do wire trick,install rom.

is there anyway of installing 4ext if you dont have any working rom? i mean flashing 4ext recovery from fastboot
SOLVED
problem solved, here is how :
found somewhere yoda's rom v6. flashed it via open recovery, flashed boot.img too. after reboot phone was stuck at htc logo once again. somehow i decided to put phone in AC charce since it was around %10. when the red light went on i thought "what is going on, this is new" and pressed power just for a second. and viola it was asking me to select a language.
anyway, after it i decided to do s-off via jounapator, phone gone again because of low battery. done everything from the first step to install yoda v6. without AC charge it is not working. I am serious.
PUT YOUR PHONE INTO AC CHARGE AND PRESS POWER MOMENTERALY.
I cant believe it but problem solved by AC charge, not USB.
Thanks all for helping.

Worked for me as far as I can tell. My device says S-ON but above that says 'UNLOCKED' and I was able to flash the CWR 5 recovery image and use that as posted earlier in this thread.
The worst nightmare was getting my computer to recognize the phone. I had recently put a new hard drive in my computer, and HTC Sync etc would NOT work. I tried TWO other computers and still would not work. Finally had to dig up the old hard drive, put it back in my first computer (since I had used that successfully to update my Slide in the first place to Froyo 2.2) and do all the steps.
Still can't explain what the problem was, since the new hard drive is the same base OS (Win 7 Ultimate 32 bit) but at least it worked. And now this phone has some life again (despite a failure to replace a cracked digitizer)

i installed clockwork recovery image thought it was work when i tried to install superuser i noticed clockwork recovery was not working when i pick any thing from the menu like install for sd it doesn't do anything. please help.

Uninstall HTC sync, download pdanet, install it, plug your phone in , let it load all the drivers, uninstall pdanet. Go about your business. This worked for me, as far as drivers.

You can't S-OFF with the new bootloaders. But at least with your bootloader unlocked, you can do some of the things an S-OFF'd phone can (like flashing CWM Recovery and r/w in /system/), so it's still fairly useful.

When I try to flash my nandroid back up to stock ics it won't boot. When I try to flash a stock ruu it says no image or wrong image found. I was told I need to relock? Does that mean no longer be s-off? What does locking and relocking mean? Can someone explain this to me or help me get back to stock? I named the file PH98IMg.zip, let it load in fast boot it does the no image or wrong image thing. I made sure it doesn't have .zip.zip So please someone explain to me the relocking and s-off thing.

HTC unlock is NOT s-off. To get s-off you have to go to unlimited.io and download the juopunutbear program for the rezound.
To run an ruu you must be locked boot loader. To relock to open fastboot and type "fastboot oem lock" then use the PH98IMG.zip.
If you use jbear to get s-off, you won't have to worry about locking and unlocking as you will stay locked but be able to flash all the stuff as unlocked.

You need s-off to go backwards in version numbers.
Apparently HTC and Verizon only want you to make progress, even if there are bumps in the road to progress.
btw, a stock ruu is never rooted.
So, first run the stock ruu, and then root it.
also, a Rom is not an ruu.
A Rom might be based on a stock ruu, but a Rom does not include everything that is in an ruu. A Rom is usually the system partition and the boot/kernel partition, both are modified and can no longer be referred to as being stock. An ruu includes, hboot, boot, system, radios, etc..
I think some ROMs are referred to as stock only because the developer started by modifying files from a stock REZOUND ruu, as opposed to starting with files from an ruu made by HTC for a totally different phone like the one-x for example. No Rom is stock, because even one modification to files from an ruu means it is no longer stock. it is a misnomer to refer to any Rom as being stock. Some roms might have fewer modifications and be closer to stock.
Stock usually also means all phone functions are working, where with a Rom one needs to read carefully to see what phone functions do not work with the Rom, and to consider how important the broken functions are to you.

Howard

It's a .bat file that allows executing commands in the command prompt. When you rooted you did have to use fastboot to get the identifier token and flash the unlock_code.bin

Have you tried flashing kernel using fastboot? S-on users need to flash the kernel seperately or the device wont boot.
you need to extract the boot.img from the rom zip file and flash it via adb/fastboot

yes bro I did flashed the kernel using fastboot and the img inside this file LeeDrOiD_3D_V5.3.0 named "boot.img" but still it stucks on HTC death Logo, the computer also detects when I type the command on PC like "adb reboot recovery" or "adb reboot fastboot" it just goes there.
Now trying to RUU if I get success will post the result, because till now I did but alas my battery less than 30%
I just want to make the phone working again else my wife will kill me lolz
anybody knows I powered off my phone and charge it but for 1second the red light comes up and then turns off, does it charge my battery in power off. when I turned on it is only white death HTC screen I don't see the red light help plz
I did this method but didn't work either
Dear all,
First of all, this is not my work. This is just a compilation of all the information i have obtained from various threads and the members of XDA. I claim no credit but just wanted to write this for all who wishes to get back to stock ROM (like myself) either for Backup purposes or Warranty cases. Using the HTC method to unlock the bootloader has given me hell such as Wifi error and stuffs. So here it is
Special thanks to Monx for showing me the idea on how to do this.
1. Create a Goldcard (use a spare Micro SD in the phone after formatting with FAT 32) and follow the instructions below
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/...htc-desire-hd/
* Instructions may be for Desire HD but it can be used too for our EVO
* Only Procedure 3 is different as all u need to do is use the Goldcard helper
App to copy the Reverse CID to clipboard
2. RELOCK your Bootloader (STEP 14) if its unlocked using HTC method below
http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/unl...uctions/page-4
3. Download your original RUU ROM from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1208485
4. Extract the ROM.ZIP file from the RUU ROM that you downloaded
One method of doing this is here
http://lukasz.szmit.eu/2010/04/extra...c-android.html
5. Once you have copied out the ROM.zip file, rename it to PG86IMG.zip
6. Copy this PG86IMG.ZIP file into the Root directory on your GOLDCARD
7. Power down your phone and with the Goldcard still in
8. Go into Bootloader (Hold POWER + Vol Down)
9. Phone will auto detect the PG86IMG.ZIP, extract and then ask permission to flash. Select "YES" ....or course
10. Once its done...you got your STOCK ROM back. However your bootloader will still show "RELOCKED"
any other suggestions????

I'm not GSM so I'll leave the rom/kernel question to them (I've heard coolexe has a good one). I will say that you may have better luck with 4ext as your recovery than ClockworkMod.
I also use the 4EXT recovery. Its touch based so you wont need to use your power and volume buttons.

As you are s-off its pretty easy to install a custom rom. just place the rom zip file on your sd card, boot into recovery, intall from sd card, choose zip and it will flash the rom. Easy
which rom to install, is a very subjective question. What do you prefer? sense,AOSP or MIUI?
SENSE 4.0:
I personally find these two sense 4 roms really impressive. But ofcourse you will have to sacrifice 3D camera for it.

I have never tried a sense 3.6 rom so cant really comment on the best rom but mwakious and coolexe's roms are quite popular. Coolexe also has a custom kernel which as coal686 pointed out is also very popular here.

One thing to keep in mind is that you may need to upgrade your firmware for some roms like AOSP/CM9/CM10 to boot. You can find the firmware download link in this thread.just follow the steps to install the firmware and then reboot you'll be good to go ( I think you need to be on an ics rom to get the phone to boot after doint the firmware update or just flash an ics rom after doing it)

The fact that you are s-off means you don't have to unlock again or flash the kernel separately. I would flash 4ext first, then use it to flash whichever custom Rom you want.
Read, Search, Read again, ... Then Ask with Tapatalk 2
So I'm a real noob to rooting, so please be patient. My wife dropped her phone in the washing machine without noticing, and it went through a whole cycle. Long story story, her HTC EVO 3d is dead, and had to buy used one off ebay. Just got it yesterday, it's been rooted with stock 2.3.4 rom. She was never a fan of this, so I looked into getting her a custom ICS rom. Already installed was the Revolutionary CWM recovery from the previous owner. How this differs from regular CWM, I'm not sure. I went ahead and download ROM manager and assumed I flashed the recovery to regular CWM. I then proceeded to reboot with the power and vol down buttons, and was searching the recovery menus again, and I noticed Revolutionary CWM was still on the phone. Then I somehow accidentally installed a custom rom I downloaded on the sd card, into the recovery menu. Well now the phone doesn't go past the HTC logo and I'm at a loss. Any help or am I doomed?
First thing you need to do is pull out the battery, put it back in and hold power+vol down button.
should get you into bootloader. Tell us what it says there. like s-on/off hboot version etc. you probably should be able to access recovery from there as well
How to fix recovery
Im not such an expert on android, rooting etc but that knowlegde I have ill share
As far as I know, I may be wrong, the HBoot version you have wont make a difference,
Try -
- take battery out
- replace battery and hold volume up rfirst and then press and hold power (boots in hboot after +/- 3 seconds)
- now use power, and volume buttons, boot into fafstboot(should just be power button)
- plug usb cable in computer and connect phone
- if you have fastboot, navigate to the exe (fastboot.exe) else just google fastboot download
- google your choice of recovery, 4 ext (i prefer) or cwm,etc its a zip file(extract the recovery.img file) or just a plain recovery.img file
- place this recovery.img file in the exact diractory as fastboot
- now make sure your phone says FASTBOOT USB, ,if it doesnt, check that ur phone is connected, try different usb ports or other cables
- press windows key and 'r' @ the same time, then run cmd
- navigate to fastboot directory
- type " fastboot devices" to check if cmd picks up ur phone , result should be a serial num- mine eg would look like (HN225NM5698)
- then if it did pick up device...
- type " fastboot flash recovery recovery.img " flashes ur custoom recovery u downloaded to ur phone
- now to boot into recovery type " fastboot boot recovery.img " OR to reboot type " fastboot reboot " phone reboots
IF ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS DID NOT SOLVE PROBLEM
try, if possilbe, booting into OS, download ROM manager and flash CWM recovery through that, if that doesnt work
try running a RUU, (remember to change ur CID to match RUU) and lock ur bootloader
if all else fails, follow my post @ ask team derp ur q pg.550, that might help:good:

@OP
If you want a completely up to date phone just use the latest RUU. It will update everything to the latest.
Then if root is not important leave it. And if you want root then just flash a recovery and then superuser zip.

@EM|NEM
Oops My Bad..
How can i forget that i had hboot 1.5 and wasnt able to use revolutionary so i did unknownforce's bricking method.
Thanks.
the wire-trick requires stock rom although some people have managed to get it to work with custom roms. you'll probably need to run the RUU to get back to stock so its best if you follow all the steps.

Go to revolutionary.io and set your 3d free.
Dont run the ICS RUU , just run the 2.08 gingerbread ruu again and use revolutionary.

Ok, so because it's my wife's phone, and she could care less if it's rooted or not, what is my best option here? All she'd like is stock ICS, like on her last non-rooted stock Evo 3D. Would it be best to flash ICS ruu and call it done? Is this the easiet way to get it back to basic ICS as OTA updates won't work?

Yes sir! OTAs will work after clean RUU flash. And if you ever want to s-off or just unlock through htcdev, you can always do that later.

yes but once you use ICS, you cannot use gingerbread again unless you are s-off.....you can flash same version of gingerbread or an updated version of gingerbread or ICS but you cannot flash old version once you update...in short , you cannot downgrade.

Perfect. Makes sense.
So I tried flashing ruu but cannot because pc cannot recognize phone, as I can't get it to go past htc logo as it just hangs there. It's basically sitting in a Charge Only mode. I'm only able to access bootloader screen. Sooooo, next option would be to place RUU on sd card and install from there, correct? Does ruu need to be zip file in order to flash in recovery screen? Or can I still use the exe file that's sitting on my desktop?
Boot into boot loader and select fastboot and connect phone to pc ...phone should show fastboot usb.then run the RUU and let it complete the process . It's not necessary to boot into android if you are in fastboot mode.
EDIT : oh sorry I forgot, that you will have to relock the boot loader before using RUU using "fastboot oem lock" command

So, here's my issue, I can see FASTBOOT USB show up no problem in bootloader, but my problem is, my pc won't recognize my phone through usb cable. My phone doesn't show up in windows explorer. Before, I could just change the USB from "charge only" to "Disk Drive" and my pc would list my sd card at Drive E. That's my issue, if pc can't see phone, I can't relock bootloader and can't run ruu. Am I missing a step here?

If you have htc sync on your pc uninstall it and install htc drivers (google it) and restart your pc
Also if you have antivirus disabled it too

I don't have HTC sync and I installed the htc drivers. No bueno.
Only way I can get my pc to recognize phone is if I go into recovery and "Mount USB Storage" - this is the only way File Exporer pops up my sd card.
I have an HTC Evo 3d Sprint (SHOOTER XC ENG), S-OFF RL, HBOOT-1.04.2000 (PG8610000), eMMC-boot, RADIO-11.25.3504.06_M
Anyway, here's what I did:
I wanted to necromancy the phone back to life. Years ago, it was my primary phone, and was rooted with MeanRom and a custom kernel from -that guy-.
First thing I did was, from 4ext Recovery, a full wipe of everything like 6 times. Then I installed ViperROM. Everything was great, except that the reason I was trying this was to test the phone out with FreedomPop, meaning I'd have to do a carrier release (##72786#), and ViperROM wasn't letting me do that. So, off with ViperROM...I went back into 4ext and wiped everything again. Tried Revolution HD, and it wouldn't load past the "quietly brilliant" screen. Decided to ditch that plan and go back to "stock".
So, I downloaded the Yoda's "stock ICS" ROM, and figured I'd update my radios while I was at it. Radio update with PM86IMG.zip worked fine, then went to install the ROM.
Not only does it not boot past the HTC screen (doesn't even get to the "quietly brilliant" screen), but now 4ext is gone!
So, I need a new recovery. I've tried to flash TWRP using the update.zip method: I downloaded twrp-3.0.2-0-shooter.img from their website, renamed it "recovery.img", put it in a .zip file (uncompressed) named PG86IMG.zip, put it into the root of my sdcard, then booted into HBOOT.
It runs the auto-loading, finds the file, then suddenly goes back to bootloader. There's a millisecond there where it looks like there's an error message (after it says "parsing PG86IMG.zip"), but before I can read it, I'm back in HBOOT.
RUU doesn't recognize the device, nor does adb, nor does just my bare computer.
Any help?
You should put your phone in bootloader mode and use
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Command to flash recovey.

Thank you for the reply.
Unfortunately, as I said above, adb isn't working. The fastboot usb flag comes on when I plug it into a computer, but nothing on the computer recognizes that anything is plugged in at all.
Are you in bootloader menu? I think you are not.
How to go to bootloader menu: Do a battery pull first then do the power and volume down.
OR:
Just to clear things up, the proper procedure to access the Bootloader Screen on the EVO 3 D is as you stated, turn off Fastboot, power down and then hold the Volume DOWN key while pressing the power button for a couple of seconds.

I am. For certain. I know what the bootloader is, heh.
When I first power+vol.down, the phone boots into bootloader (obviously), attempts to flash the PG86IMG.zip on the root of my SD, then goes back to bootloader. If I select Recovery from there, I get sent back to Fastboot.

I think my partitions are gone, could be the problem. The recovery.img file inside PG86IMG.zip is supposed to flash to the recovery partition, and the matching names is how the bootloader knows to do that. If the recovery partition is gone, there's nowhere to flash the recovery.img to.
Does that sound feasible to anyone?
If that's the case, how do I get my partitions back? Remember, plugging the phone into my computer does nothing - it does not show up on the computer AT ALL.
Update:
On a hunch, I tried using PG86IMG.zip to flash a copy of 4ext Recovery. It worked (dunno why TWRP, CMRecovery, or Stock recovery didn't, maybe there was something left over of 4ext that made it incompatible with others).
So, having a functional recovery, I proceeded to try flashing a ROM. I went with Yoda's "stock" above again. Install went perfectly smooth, but after reboot, frozen at the HTC screen. Battery pull, Vol-Down/Power to get into bootloader, choose recovery and BLAM...no recovery again (phone gets kicked out of bootloader into Fastboot mode, again).
Re-flashed 4ext again...again it worked fine...loaded the ROM...again it installed fine...reboot...BLAM.
Is there something wrong with my ROM selection? I'll try a different one tomorrow.
Update:
Aha! Turns out that my hboot...Eng-hboot 1.04.2000...is incompatible with newer kernels.
Anyone have a link to Anthrax 3.6?
So, I flashed Viper 3D ROM, figuring that it worked before, although I was on earlier radios then.
It flashed just fine, Aroma installer went through everything, then asked to reboot. At first I didn't do it, because I wanted to check out stuff in the recovery first. So, when I rebooted through the recovery, it just rebooted back INTO recovery. I powered down, tried to power up, went straight to recovery. So I did another full wipe of everything, and installed Viper 3D ROM again. This time I selected the reboot option at the end of the Aroma installer. Immediately went into bootloops. It gets to the Viper 3D loading screen, then bootloops.
So I found Chad's old kernel and flashed that, thinking it might help. Now it bootloops four times exactly, then freezes on the Viper 3D loading screen.
By the way, I feel like I'm talking to myself here.
I've reflashed Viper3D a few times now, with no luck. It installs just fine, and I can boot into it as far as the Viper3d logo, but that's all.
Still a kernel problem, you think?
(Not like anyone is actually reading this besides me....)
Updated the radios again and now it actually booted Viper 3D ROM!
Going through the setup process now. Will report back once it's done, to see if I still have the original problem of not being able to do a carrier release.
Thanks for all your help everyone![/sarcasm]
Yep, still can't do ##72786#. Asks me if I want to execute the command, I click OK, it does nothing.
Oh well, I'll find a TeamVenom guy and ask them.
Just in case anyone actually reads this, I'm still unable to use any of the hidden dialer codes. According to Jan, this is a known issue with ViperROM, but he doesn't know how to fix it, and Virus is AWOL, heh.
Does anyone know of any other hboot-agnostic ROMs for the Evo 3D?
