OK, so the other night I was trying to restore to stock but I found the RUU giving me errors. I figured it out after hours of tedious work and here it is:
1. Download the latest RUU.
2. Uninstall HTC sync.
3. This is important: go into fastboot mode and using command prompt at the folder where fastboot.exe is stored, type in 'fastboot oem lock' without quotes into the window and press enter.
4. Run the RUU and follow instructions (while still in fastboot usb on phone).
tl;dr for more advanced users: you need to relock the bootloader to get the RUU to work
Hope this helps, peoples.
note: this only applies for hboot 1.5 htc unlocked people
Yup...

Bump. Looking for RUU as well. Not the pg86img file but the ruu. I got this from ppc geeks http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/2154352-post28.html but the ruu is not available to free users.
Download the ruu. Find it in your phone and rename it pg86img. Now reboot into your hboot and wah lah. Your phone is back to stock

I thought on hboot 1.5 the pgm.zip file or whatever its called won't work. I am trying to go back to stock. i relocked boot loader but cannot for the life of me figure out how to run the ruu.zip.. that's all i keep reading ... can someone explain exactly HOW to run a zip file? i'm on hboot 1.5, evo 3d, relocked.

If you have already downloaded the exe to your pc then just plug your phone into your pc. If you phone is powered on just choose charge only from your pull down screen or when the usb window pops up. Then locate the .exe-ruu you downloaded to your pc and double click on it to run it and follow the instructions and you should be good. If you phone is powered off plug it into your pc. Then hold the volume up button and press power and and the fasboot menu should appear and it should state "fastboot usb" at the top. Then once again repeat the steps above once you located the .exe-ruu on you pc. Also make sure you have the correct ruu. Hope this helps.

Lol I'm glad you found one. Also yes you should be looking for an .exe.ruu which means that you have to run it from your pc. The zip file is for flashing the ruu threw fastboot. Hope all works out. Pm me if you need any assistance. Good luck.

Which rom are you trying to boot? Because you are s-on you need to flash boot.img seperately in fastboot. OR you could use 4EXT recovery with smartflash turned on.

First of all, since you are using a smarphone, you should try and be a bit smart yourself. From a logical standpoint, those ruu have something different: on one says ASIA, on one EUROPE, and on one Rogers (which I can only assume it is linked to the us version, probably CDMA Evo 3D). If you live and bought the phone from Europe, it seems to me you should try the Europe RUU, right? If from Asia, the Asia one and so forth. Simple logic.
Secondly, if you would have read the vast quantity of threads and tutorials about this, you should have started your phone in hboot (Power button+Volume Down), select Fastboot by pressing the Power button, connect your phone to your pc, and in cmd write "fastboot oem lock". Also preferably a full wipe to be done in recovery. Once those steps were performed, the logically chosen RUU would work without any errors

I have done all of that (wip all in recovery, lock my phone, install the ruu.exe). i did that for all the ruu.exe described above but it doesn't work :cryingerror ruu no compatible).
do you know any ruu work on my phone please?
my phone is HTC EVO 3D GSM(described above)
thank you a lot,

What usb cable are you using, and what usb itself? The ruu will not work on usb 1.1 or 3.0, only on usb 2.0 . If you use a pc, plug it in the back, directly in a usb from a mainboard, not in the front usb or through a hub
Which carrier was your phone on before? Make sure you use the correct RUU for your phone

The Europe ruu should work for that cid... Nonetheless, I will look a bit more into it later when I get home, to see if I can find any more details

Just for information, i have tested the europe ruu.exe but doesn't work.
Best regards,
Be sure to plug the phone in a usb 2.0 in the computer (one in the back, NOT in the front) to be sure it works properly. Ruus have problems on usb 1.1 and even on 3.0. Also try replacing your data cable, it might be faulty.
If you wiped everything in recovery and then oem locked hboot through adb, the europe ruu should have worked. Since it didnt, i must assume the problem is either with the cable used or with the usb port.
Also an idea might be to try and download the ruu again, maybe there was an error during the download
Theres something else you can try too. download the zip RUU. place this on your sd card and flash in bootloader

Well if you cant RUU you should try to get a custom rom to boot. First do these steps:
Unlock your bootloader.
Flash 4EXT recovery in fastboot. Then boot into recovery and turn on smartflash in tools menu.
Download Viper3D rom (the latest one) and transfer it to your sdcard.
Boot into recovery
wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache+dalvik
install viper3d rom. It will take a while, around 10 mins on synergy 4EXT alignment.
reboot and hope it boots

I'm trying to RUU the device back to the stock and then never tinker again!
Can someone please step me through this, all the links I'm finding are dead or the RUU doesn't run.
Many thanks =)
Get hasoons20000 one x+ toolkit it has a link for ruu

You can download the RUU (ENRC2B) from this :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2094118
you need to relock your bootloader before running the RUU
http://www.androidfiles.org/ruu/get...Radio_3.1204.168.32_release_299722_signed.exe
I'm sorry, I must have missed that one :/
I Tried this before but the RUU used didn't work, but I'll try to re-download and go from there.
(RUU_ENRC2B_U_JB_45_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.17.707.1_Radio_3.1204.168.32_release_299722_signed.exe)
Will it be a problem that my phone is 1.17.708.1 and that this is 1.17.707.1 (0.0.001 lower)?
Also, do I need to flash the stock recovery. And If so where would I go about getting it?
You will only have to relock the bootloader again and then (while in fastboot) run the RUU. Remember that you will lose everything on the device.
To relock the bootloader use Hansoon's toolkit. It has all the commands build in for easy use.
"Wrong CID" I'm not sure why this is wrong. 662 came back from fastboot getvar cid, and does indeed correspond to Hong Kong.
What would you advise from here dear sir?

Are you sure it's a generic HK CID? And not an operator locked one? Maybe you need the RUU from a particular operator.....

I looked up the CID and it's just for HK, the phone came unlock so I doubt it needs a locked RUU. But hey, I've been wrong before.
Is there any reason the phone would not accept the correct RUU?
Okk,
This might seem a bit weird but I had the same issue with my Intl HOX+ and I have given it to hTC and they asked me to shell out aroun 18K to change the motherboard! (Which of course we all know is not required since this is a software issue).
So here is what I did:
1. I relocked the boot loader (I hope you have the unlock_code.bin with you, else get it from hTCDev)
2. Of course it started giving relocked security warning.
3. Again unlocked the boot loader and voila - it booted straight in to Elegancia!
This essentiially happens because unlocking the bootloader formats all the partitions except system and boot (I guess, because my media files were gone...).
See if this gets you through.
But DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!
I am talking about International HOX+, I do not know if ATT works in a different way.
Unfortunately that hasn't worked and I'm still stuck with the stall during boot :/
I think my best bet will the RUU, but I just can't get one that will work.
Do you know a ROM that I could side-load onto my device and just use it with that?
Thanks

From this stuff I'm pretty sure it's broke, but I can get to the boot loader and recovery. Though I ran the appropriate (so I thought) RUU and it didn't work due to CID which stumped me.

flash twrp through fasboot as only twrp provides side load option.
when twrp is flashed ,boot to recovery.side load incertcoin rom through hasoons toolkit.
don't worry about 707 or 708 etc.Mine was 707.1 but i am using incertcoin which is 401.3
after falshing incertcoin if it is again in boot loop then
use this command from adb
adb shell
wipe data
and reboot
you will be done.

Hi,
I have a Sprint CDMA HTC EVO 3D. I tried root and get S-OFF for it. Unfortunately I failed and now the phone fail to boot.
Below is what I did from which you might be able to diagnose it and give me suggestions.
(1) The original status of mu phone is:
Stock rom, I never root it before.
HBOOT-1.58.0000
Android Version: 4.03
HTC Sense version: 3.6
Software version: 2.95.651.6.710RD
(2) My root procedures:
I followed this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1813818
I successfully unlocked phone with HTCDev, successfully Flashed 4EXT recovery, and successfully installed Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip. I also booted into sytem, everything worked well.
However I failed in next step of JuopunutBear's Wire Trick (S-OFF). When I ran ControlBear.exe, it finally hanged there.
Current status of my phone:
Unfortunately I did not make a backup to my original ROM, so there is no way to revert back by restoring backup.
Now the phone is in unlocked status, I was able to boot to HBOOT and also enter 4Ext recovery, however I am not able to boot into Android. If I try to boot into Android, it always hang at black screen.
I am able to boot to fastboot (USB) mode, I tried to flash some stock ROM (listed at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24268786&postcount=209), but I failed. For example, I ran a RUU of 2.89.exe, it detected my phone version is 2.95, and further update RUU failed.
Looks like my partition is ruined, but I might be wrong.
ANyone can help me to restore my phone to working status? At least I need the phone to be able to boo to Android.
Here are also some tries that I ever did:
(1) I ever put the PG86IMG.zip file (downloaded from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21593454&postcount=564) to my sdcard, still failed.
(2) I ever formatted all partition from 4EXT recovery

EDIT:
Okay. I've got some questions.
1. You're stuck on some black screen as you said. It boots past the white HTC splash and then it's stuck on that black screen, right. Do you mean the juopunutbear "arrow screen" - juopunutbears boot.img?
2. I think if you had flashed the original boot img everything would have been fine.
3. The easiest way is to flash to stock, so lets try to figure out why it doesn't flash.

Okay. So from what I understood, you are stuck on the black juopunutbear screen, right?

Yes, after I was stuck with black juopunutbear screen, I took battery out, reboot again, never was able to root to Android. I am only able to boot to HBoot.

And you can boot to recovery, right?
EDIT:
One more thing. Which ruu were you trying to run
Edit2:
What's your CID? Use "fastboot getvar cid" or "fastboot oem readcid" (without quotes).
Edit3:
BTW, this was on the wire trick page... http://unlimited.io/jbtroubleshooting.htm - TROUBLESHOOTING There was everything you needed to know when you failed at something. Remember that page. You may need it the next time you try to do the wiretrick.
Q: Were you using a linux distro for the wire trick and did you use the appropriate files for wire trick since GB and ICS have separate tools?
If you want I may assist you in gaining s-off if we get this thing functional again.
Yes, I am able to boot to recovery.

Aw man, I'm completely sorry I didn't see this: Software version: 2.95.651.6.710RD
That means, no RUU for you cause htc/sprint wasn't kind enough to provide the ruu. Also FYI you can't flash a ruu lower than your current one.
So your best bet is to flash the most stock 2.95 cdma rom you could find and right after, flash the stock cdma evo 3d kernel through fastboot or 4ext (I think 4ext smartflash does the same thing). Try to find something that's COMPLETELY STOCK - with no mods whatsoever or if you couldn't find any, try something that's almost* stock. That should get you booting and you can try s off again.
Edit: This shall work. http://www.negalite.com/index.php?topic=21.0 Try it and report back!!!
Now I only want to revert my phone to stock, not considering root at present time.
I searched 2.95 ROM, unfortunately the highest version that I can find is 2.89. Does this mean I have no way to revert my phone to live? Thanks a lot.

Flash like a normal rom and don't forget to flash the boot img because that's what's really causing you problems right now. I'd choose the deodexed one from there.
My HBoot screen shows below:
SHOOTER XC SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.58.000
RADIO-1.09.00.0108
OpenADSP-v02.6.0.2226.00.0217

If you have access to the recovery, most likely, yes.
Hello MrJyrks,
Thank you so much for the link! I am eager to try that. Before I do that I think I shall ask two questions to avoid further mess up the device:
Question #1: To install the deodexed rom, which is the correct way:
(1) Rename the ZIP file to PG86IMG.ZIP, put to root of sdcard, then boot, letting the Bootloader to do the update.
(2) In 4EXT recovery, enable smartflash, enable script asserts, then install the zip from the root of sdcard.
Question #2: You said I shall flash boot image, can you tell me how to do this? I mean, where shall I get the boot image file? Flash it with 4EXT? SHall I do it before or after install ROM zip file?
Thank you very much for your helps!!!

I tried install the stock ROM from your link (using 4EXT with smartflash enabled and script asserts enabled.) . Amazing that installation completed successfully (indeed this is the first ROM zip that I was able to install successfully since I mess up the device). When I exit After that, it did some further update which I guess is the boot.img that you mentioned.
4EXT it said 'a pending update for your boot partition is detected' and I think it was doing the boot image flash that you mentioned, right?
Unfortunately when I boo the device, I still got black screen.
Now I am unlocked and also rooted (since I successfully installed superuser in 4EXT). DO you think I shall lock the devioce before installing the stock ROM? If so, one possible issue is that if I relock the device, I found 4EXT is not available. In that case, how shall I install the ROM zip file?
Thanks.

Further update:
I flashed boot image by: fastboot flash boot boot.img which is included in the stock ROM zip file.
The flash went successfully. However, I am still not able to boot to Android. WHat I have is the device hang there, alternatively displaying logo with white background, and black screen.

Oh, and if, in the future, you do try the wire trick and get stuck at some point you can revert the changes with ControlBear -r or ControlBear -f from command line. And you may also PM me if you need any help. Cheers!

Similar problem, can't return to stock
I have a problem similar to lsdyna's, and am hoping that even though this post is old, MrJyrks or someone might be able to help me.
I am unsuccessfully trying to return my phone to stock. First a bit of history.
I had 2.95.651.6.710RD s-on hboot 1.58 Android Version: 4.03 HTC Sense version: 3.6 on my phone, and wanted root. I didn't need s-off, just wanted to root so could do some tweaking (stop some apps from autostarting, stop some form getting network access, etc.) so loaded 4EXT Recovery Touch, and got root (fastboot oem get_identifier_token method), got superuser in there, and happily began tweaking. Famous last words... I didn't make a backup right away (learned my lesson!) and suddenly found a 'overtweaked' sluggish phone on my hands.
Thought best thing would be to lose the root & return to stock & start over, carefully, making backups.
So I used Fastboot (fastboot oem lock) to lock it (worked) and proceeded to try to load RUU_Shooter_ICS_35_S_Sprint_WWE_2.89.651.2_Radio_1.09.00.0706__NV_NV_SPCS_1.43_release_271101_signed.exe into it [via my computer], but didn't realize until reading MrJyrks post that a lower RUU couldn't be used.
I now am relocked (phone does boot up, but can tell the system tweaks are still slogging it), lost the recovery, and wondering what to do... do I try putting recovery back in & using the Negalite 2.95 stock deodex ROM MrJyrks mentioned? If so, how do I use that zip file method verses the exe one I tried thru my computer?
Thanks for the help
You had issues with the RUU because your main version is higher than that contained in the RUU.
Unlock, flash recovery again. Boot into recovery and flash this zip: https://copy.com/wlVvwssXXNN00Pe
That will lower your main version. Relock the bootloader, put the phone into fastboot USB mode, then run the RUU while in fastboot USB mode.
Should be back to stock after that.
Hey all,
I have this HTC EVO 3D that just, refuses to co-operate with me.
Story goes -
Got it on ICS and everything was working fine on it. I looked for updates available and it found a 28MB update that I installed and once the phone rebooted with the update, the camera fails to start and the touch screen just starts going crazy and opening everything, whereas before it fine.
So, I attempted to try and get it back to Gingerbread.
And googled and googled and googled.
Reason why I have opened a new thread is cause it's sort of everything going weird with it.
Of course, trying RUU files and trying to flash RUU in zip failed so on so forth.
I had unlocked the Bootloader and S-ON is on at this point. Also had CWM recovery installed and was able to boot into that.
With this in place, I read up on the wire trick and thought, yeah it seems a bit hard, I'll take it to a phone repair shop, where they had the phone for 2 weeks and told me that it was S-OFF and back to stock.
Since they had it and I got it back, it's now stuck in a boot loop and I can not get into any recovery etc (With the original SD Card in it). Can get to Bootloader and fastboot though.
Spent the last 3 hours with about 20 tabs in Chrome opened on how to exactly go from here and I am stuck.
Got a Linux Laptop here and tried to ControlBear and it comes up with ADB and Fastboot not found (Directory points to it being in tmp..no idea)
TL;DR
HTC Evo 3D (Australian Variant, was running ICS Telstra OEM)
Unlocked Bootloader
SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.53.0007
eMMC-boot
Radio - 11.25.3504.16 M
Boot Loops, No Recovery, Fastboot commands work on windows.
So just wondering, where do I go from here. I don't know if the device is completely bricked now or if it can be saved.
(I tried a number of zip files on the SD Card (PG86IMG.zip) and nothing due to having S-ON.
Hoping someone can provide a procedure or point me in the right direction.
As reference, I used this thread mostly before it was taken to the Repair Shop and got stuffed.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks so much.

Hello my friend, the reason you can't load the pg86img is because you have unlocked bootloader. The fastboot commands could help us a lot, did you follow the controlbear instructions in the correct order? I think there is a way through windows with exe files I don't remember well because I did S-OFF 3years+ before. If you want we can try together some time. If you want for start we can flash 4ext recovery and a custom rom so your phone can boot.

Hi there, I didn't know with having the bootloader unlocked that it would cause any issues, but there you go!
Yeah, if there's a guide to flashing the 4EXT Recovery and a custom rom that would be great!
I have a fair idea of how to do it, but don't want to try anything without having someone of greater knowledge point me in the right direction
Thanks!
Just an update, I did come across a thread to flash 4EXT Recovery onto my Evo 3D.
Put Recovery.img into my platform-tools folder, used the fastboot command, it said sending and OK.
Selected recovery and still boot loops. No idea where to go from here now

Sorry for being late, I had some problems with my internet connection. Can you boot into recovery? Power button + Vol- and choose recovery, if you can boot tell me first which version you have and second what type of rom you want to have.

Hey there,
That's OK, I don't mind the wait, it's all good!
I can boot into Fastboot, but when I choose recovery/factory reset etc, it shows the HTC Logo and then goes into a bootloop.
As for the ROM, I want to get the original GB ROM for it because when I updated it to the latest ICS that's when the camera and touch started to get weird, whereas beforehand it was fine.
So thinking, if I go back down to GB Stock, that it should be all fine again, but I am not too sure on that one.
Thanks!

Well, we have to downgrade the hboot version first. Did you do the wire trick procedure right? You can download a pg86img and flash it first to fix the bootloops. First lock the bootloader. When you finish this report here. I have to sleep it's late here and I work early. I'll send you tomorrow. See you.

Ok, the technician I took the phone to supposedly did the wire trick for S-OFF, but, it's still S-ON.
I have downloaded a lot of stock PG86IMG files before posting on here and none work, they scan when in bootloader and then nothing after that.
But that would be because I haven't locked the bootloader. So in saying this, I lock the bootloader following steps on many forum posts on here, then flash a .zip file that's correct and then it should all work?
I'll wait for your response, thanks!

Hey, so I tried a P86IMG.zip from this thread here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2274635
I couldn't find another one and with that I get an error "Main Version Fail" or "Main Version Check Fail".
I then tried RUU and RUU in zip format.
RUU comes back with wrong bootloader error. (I couldn't find an RUU that matched my radio version so I went with the nearest one)
RUU Zip comes back through fastboot with "remote 43 main version check fail"
Also I tried to do the Wire Trick and got stuck at the "ADB and Fastboot not found" even though the files are there and the phone is connected.
So still a little bit...stuck :\
Also relocked bootloader it just says relocked now.
If you need any other additional info I can send screenshots of what it's at.
Thanks!

So update -
DK sent me the windows version of ControlBear via PM - thank you.
Have an unlocked bootloader.
I tried ControlBear, and because I can not boot into the OS, I start it at Fastboot USB, it reboots, then says "Connecting to Device", then "Testing ADB connection" then "Press Enter To Exit" and that's it, can't do anything else from there, and it gets stuck in the boot loop that it still has.
Tried again to google for methods for HBOOT 1.53, and am trying some of those methods, but it's not looking good at all.
I haven't even got to the stage where it asks me to do any sort of wire trick.
Also my battery in the EVO 3D has died so am using a battery out of a HTC MyTouch 4G with help from electrical tape :\
So now, any suggestions? I am trying to flash another RUU that's stock for my Radio (Well, it's close enough - RUUs are both 11.25.3504.06, mine is 11.25.3504.16)
EDIT: Tried all RUUs with relocked bootloader and comes back with bootloader error (ERROR 140). So, no idea.
Also it's scanning for PG86DIAG.img files on the SD Card - that's not normal is it.
Do you think we should give up on it, it's probably hard bricked and dead now
I think it's literally hard bricked and no way to bring it back from the dead.
As per my original post, all the details for the phone are there. And it sucks that I can't find a correct RUU for my phone (As it was Telstra AU - latest update of ICS)
AHH I don't know.

Also my battery in the EVO 3D has died so am using a battery out of a HTC MyTouch 4G with help from electrical tape :\
So now, any suggestions? I am trying to flash another RUU that's stock for my Radio (Well, it's close enough - RUUs are both 11.25.3504.06, mine is 11.25.3504.16)
EDIT: Tried all RUUs with relocked bootloader and comes back with bootloader error (ERROR 140). So, no idea.
Also it's scanning for PG86DIAG.img files on the SD Card - that's not normal is it.
Do you think we should give up on it, it's probably hard bricked and dead now
I think it's literally hard bricked and no way to bring it back from the dead.
As per my original post, all the details for the phone are there. And it sucks that I can't find a correct RUU for my phone (As it was Telstra AU - latest update of ICS)
AHH I don't know.

First of all you should be unlocked now with 1.53 hboot. Download from here the latest 4ext recovery (4EXT_Recovery_Touch_v1.0.0.6_RC3)
It's in my mega account don't worry about malicious software I downloaded it 5 minutes before doing this post. If you don't have unlocked your bootloader do it with the tokens HTC sent you in your email. Flash this recovery from fastboot (fastboot flash recovery "recoveryname".img). After that remove the battery and re-enter fastboot mode (Vol down+power button) and choose recovery. If you manage to boot into recovery from there tell me to send you a link for a rom to flash. I don't believe its a hard brick.

Hey there, thanks for the help again, unfortunately, still didn't work.
I unlocked the bootloader again. Then tried to flash what you said, it said "writing" then "successful". I pulled the battery and tried to boot into recovery and just loops

Try doing:
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery "recovery".img
fastboot format system
fastboot format boot
And if it still doesn't let me send you a boot.img in some minutes to try flashing it.
EDIT: And something last, you can still do the controlbear trick while not in OS, its easy if you wanna try let me know.

Hey all,
I have this HTC EVO 3D that just, refuses to co-operate with me.
Story goes -
Got it on ICS and everything was working fine on it. I looked for updates available and it found a 28MB update that I installed and once the phone rebooted with the update, the camera fails to start and the touch screen just starts going crazy and opening everything, whereas before it fine.
So, I attempted to try and get it back to Gingerbread.
And googled and googled and googled.
Reason why I have opened a new thread is cause it's sort of everything going weird with it.
Of course, trying RUU files and trying to flash RUU in zip failed so on so forth.
I had unlocked the Bootloader and S-ON is on at this point. Also had CWM recovery installed and was able to boot into that.
With this in place, I read up on the wire trick and thought, yeah it seems a bit hard, I'll take it to a phone repair shop, where they had the phone for 2 weeks and told me that it was S-OFF and back to stock.
Since they had it and I got it back, it's now stuck in a boot loop and I can not get into any recovery etc (With the original SD Card in it). Can get to Bootloader and fastboot though.
Spent the last 3 hours with about 20 tabs in Chrome opened on how to exactly go from here and I am stuck.
Got a Linux Laptop here and tried to ControlBear and it comes up with ADB and Fastboot not found (Directory points to it being in tmp..no idea)
TL;DR
HTC Evo 3D (Australian Variant, was running ICS Telstra OEM)
Unlocked Bootloader
SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.53.0007
eMMC-boot
Radio - 11.25.3504.16 M
Boot Loops, No Recovery, Fastboot commands work on windows.
So just wondering, where do I go from here. I don't know if the device is completely bricked now or if it can be saved.
(I tried a number of zip files on the SD Card (PG86IMG.zip) and nothing due to having S-ON.
Hoping someone can provide a procedure or point me in the right direction.
As reference, I used this thread mostly before it was taken to the Repair Shop and got stuffed.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks so much.
