Help installing ROMs - HTC EVO 3D

Can i please get some help with my evo 3d?
I have done everything step by step and cant get any AOKP CM10 roms to install and run.
I did the RUU to stock (the newest one 2.89.651.2) I got it rooted, s-off with Juopunutbear hboot 1.58.5858 and 4EXT recovery.
Every rom i install will NOT boot. What have I done wrong? Please help me.

Change your bootloader (hboot) to something lower that 1.57 and it should work.
My recommendation is the JBear 1.50.5050 version.

So if I downgrade the hboot then any ROM will install? Trying to install an AOKP rom.

I believe so. You may even be able to downgrade to hboot 1.4 I believe.

I always hit the damn thanks button instead of the quote! You got a free thanks
Anyways, go this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192306 and download the SHIP 1.40 hboot (unless you want the ENG one, then download that). Follow the instructions in that post, and flash it. Just a simple PG86IMG.zip.
This guy did the same thing as you, and had success rolling back to 1.40. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17993045&postcount=97
Good luck.

Not been in this situation personally, but as far as I know, since you are s-off, you should be able to flash a recovery and then use it to flash a custom ROM that is already rooted. You may be able to install the Superuser app without having to go through all that, but, like I said, I am not 100% sure.
look
install superuser through cmd prompt on ur computer..there isnt any other way around it..just google it and its super easy
Look in the sticky, flash the 1.4 HBOOT.
Find the TWRP thread, flash that.
Flash a ROM of your choice.

If all you're wanting is to root the stock ROM, flash a custom recovery, then flash the superuser.zip.
hboot 1.5 and s-off
Thanks everyone. My bootloader is locked and I'm 1.5 and s-off. So if i flash hboot 1.4 on my sd card. then a recovery along with a rom. That should get me back?

If your boatloader is locked you can't install a custom recovery or a Rom.

Custom ROM Trouble (Virgin Mobile)

Hello, I've been helping my friend install a custom ROM on his Virgin Mobile Evo 3D and have been running into roadblock after roadblock. Did a good amount of reading and searching and want to make sure I'm going in the right direction.
First some important numbers:
HBoot: 1.57
Build #: 1.13.652.2_R2 CL372137
S-On
Using HTCDev we were able to successfully unlock the bootloader and installed 4Ext Recovery RC5 (TWRP 2.3.1 / 1.1.1 did not work).
Using 4Ext Recovery we enabled SmartFlash (through Tools menu) and attempted to install various ROMs (Paranoid Android 2.99 (4.1.2), Unofficial AOKP v3.2 (4.1.2)) without success. The ROMs install, but bootloops on the HTC logo.
I have read that S-Off is the preferred method as it maximizes compatibility and convenience. So following this guide, we are going to run the RUU to try again.
Can anyone who's been down this road give us some tips? I thought we were homefree after we got the recovery installed, but I guess there's still more work to be done.

Your problem with the AOSP based ROM's is that you need to downgrade your bootloader to something below 1.57 and need S-OFF to do that. Once you have achieved S-OFF and downgraded the hboot you should be fine.

Thanks ramjet for the tip. Any recommended link to instructions for downgrading to 1.50?
I am currently running:
JuopunutBear
Shooter XC SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT - 1.57.5757
Thanks,

Here's a post that should help. The hboot files linked from that guide will work on the Evo 3D and the Evo V 4G.
ramjet73
Perfect. I was able to downgrade to 1.50 and then install the Paranoid ROM. Now to figure out why it won't get past the boot screen! It's stayed there for over 10 minutes.
Onward!

Did you "format all partitions except SD card" in 4EXT right before flashing the ROM? That works for most users.

Thank you for the reply, that is what I surmised- even though I read the custom ROMs' OP for mention of HBOOT (most of the time it was claimed that 1.58 is incompatible, and/or 1.50 or below is needed).
1.57 + S-Off seems to be a difficult combination, per your guide the best way to achieve this is with the wire trick? You have a very good guide, definitely appreciate all the time and effort you've put in.
Ramjet, actually, I went in and wiped to factory settings after installing the Paranoid ROM. Then in booted just fine. However... the Google Apps packet is really flakey. Off to hunt for answers about why there are so many FC issues. I may just switch back to the ROM that you created. That was much more dependable! Thank you for your support!!!

[Q] Problem with Installing Jelly Bean ROM

Just wanted to see if anyone else is having this issue installing a Jelly Bean ROM. Just for background info, I have hboot 1.50, the 2.89 firmware, and the phone is s-off and unlocked. Whenever I install a Jelly Bean ROM I get a boot loop at the HTC screen. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I may possibly fix this? I want my JB fix!
I know people say hboot 1.5 works, but people tend to have better luck with hboot 1.04 or 1.4.
If that doesn't work, which it didn't for me when I had the same issue, try the ruu.exe. You'll remain s-off, but completely stock. Then flash hboot above, 4ext recovery, then Rom.

Which RUU? The 2.89 version? I don't care about being stock since I can always flash a new ROM after. I gotta look around for the hboot 1.40. Thanks for the info.

Here's a guide that you will find useful. I'm just providing this for you because it has a link to the ruu exe you need and links to hboot versions

Stuck at bootloop after installing Viper3D rom

My phone gets stuck at bootloop after installing Viper3D. I did a ssytem wipe and installed the rom. Am I missing any steps like formating cache/dalvik? Rather, what are the correct steps since I can't seem to find any. My phone has hboot 1.5, unlocked, s-on, CWM 4.0.1.4

Couple things..
You need to be on hboot 1.58. You can do this by running the 2.89 RUU.
It will also help to get s-off and there's a complete guide on how to do this Here.
if I follow those instructions, would i be able to install the CyanogenMod 10.1? According to the thread, it says i must NOT have hboot 1.58 but I will gain that if I follow those instructions.
i followed the down and dirty instructions and was able to root my phone, have hboot 1.58, and have S-Off. Installed Viper3D with success. Thanks for the help.
Now my next question is...how do you down grade hboot 1.58 to 1.50?

Install the supported Hboot in the bootloader, which is 1.40 I believe.
simply rename the file to PG86IMG and put it in the root of your Sd card.
here is a list of the hboots
