I just created the guide you need today.
If you want 3D to work you are going to have to go with a "de-Sensed" ROM that emulates AOSP. There are AOSP based ROM's that have working 4G but no 3D camera.

So if i wanted just the current ics update, downloading the ruu from that website, running it an leaving it would be enough?

Yes. You wouldn't be rooted and would have the stock bootloader (hboot) and recovery, but if you want to run 100% stock that would be fine.
I suggest leaving it S-OFF though so if you change your mind it's easier to update those things.

ok, one last question, just so i am clear to myself. lol I downloaded : RUU_Shooter_ICS_35_S_Sprint_WWE_2.89.651.2_Radio_1.09.00.0706__NV_NV_SPCS_1.43_release_271101_signed from the site posted in your guide. by running that exe, I will be on the current sprint ics rom, radio, curren stockt hboot, current stock recovery, an S-off ? with the option of then afterwords installing custom hboot an recovery?

Flash any of the ROM's in Dev that are based on 2.17. Or just flash the base rooted 2.17 ROM.
i thought i read somewhere in one of the roms if you flash without being on 2.17 that you will get stuck in bootloop?

There is a link on the OP in meanrom thread which will guide u on how to update everything from 2.08 to 2.17 .... Just follow everything on that page n u can flash any 2.17 rom after that with no problem....

You need the Freeza All In One update. This will not update you to 2.17 as that is referring to the ROM, this will update the firmware, PRI etc.

Do yourself a favor, if you are on hboot 1.5, get it downgraded using instructions in the Dev forum. Everything is so much easier on 1.4.
If your CDMA hboot 1.5 you can either find the stock recovery to flash and use the zip file that the guys just mentioned...
You could also download the 2.17 RUU exe
Wipe Relock and run the ruu you will be updated Then just unlock again pretty easy...
That RUU comes in handy if you do **** something up
Lol 1.5 is easy no issues just one extra step to flash stuff not hard and no issues.

yes if u r on hboot 1.4.... once u flash this u will have everything updated..... then u can simply flash any rom with no problem.. but if ur on hboot 1.5 this i would first downgrade it like mentioned earlier....

[Q] another firmware question...

i hate to ask this but I just can't get it figured out for sure. I am on Clean Rom 4.3, my build number is: 3.11.605.22. I dont think I've ever done an RUU. I rooted / unlocked with the All in One Toolkit, and then installed CR 4.3, and then did the patch and kernel.
So if I wanna try something else, like BAMF, can I just flash it or is there still the RUU that I need to do?
thanx in advance...

Just the patch. BAMF is based on the leaked firmware, so just make sure you flash the patch with it. That one will have a special PH img also. It's called PH98IMGoldfirmwarepeople.zip.
EDIT: And if that's your true firmware, you already flashed the RUU. I think that's just the build of the ROM. Go into HBoot and you'll know for sure if you flashed any kind of RUU on your phone. Your HBoot number will be higher.
in HBOOT I have HBOOT 2.11.0000, eMMc-boot, Oct 6, 2011

Perfect. Then you're on the old (official) firmware so you just need to flash the ROM in recovery, the patch, and the PH98IMGoldfirmwarepeople (in bootloader).
EDIT: And just so you know in the future, your HBoot would be 2.21 if you were on the new firmware.
ok cool. is the alternative to just do that entire ruu leaked ics process, and then I'm updated and can just flash roms w/out patches. Is that the better way to go?
sorry for all the questions, that is it I promise...
thank you

Well, that would be an easy way to do things, but because you can use ROMs without it, I would just not do it yet and wait for the official OTA. I updated, but that's just me.

HTC Unlocked to S-off with 1.22.651.3?

Hello,
I updated my Evo to the 1.22.651.3 software version and then got it HTC unlocked. Is there a way to get S-off from HTC unlocked? If so, which guide do I use? All the guides I can find seem to suggest that if you updated to 1.22.651.3, then you can't do S-off at this point.
Thanks for your help.
Correct, you can't get s-off.

new base
Ok, thank you. Mean-Rom 3.5 and higher uses a new base and apparently without s-off I can't update past 3.4. I've tried a coupe times and get a black screen. Is there any work around for s-on phones trying to upgrade to a ROM with the new base?ne

Yes you can. You need to know the limitations of your bootloader.
You are trying to boot the ROM with the wrong kernel

Oh, I see. It's h boot 1.15. Thanks for the link. I should be able to figure out how to flash the kernel separate but where do I extract the kernel from the ROM? And will flashing the kernel ahead of the ROM do the trick? even with the new base?

The kernel is in the boot.img. Open up the ROM and copy the boot.img to your adb folder if you are doing the fastboot method.
You can do it before or after the ROM flash, but the ROM wont boot till you have both

since youre s-off you can install and run any bootloader you wish...yes some roms require the use of hboot 1.50 or lower and not 1.58 which is the ice cream sandwich hboot... if you want to run gingerbread or other roms yes you need to downgrade and i can give you links for that too ... or you can install the ICS rom and keep your current hboot.

correct... well the newest version of android ROMS is jelly bean which requires you to down grade...the second newest is ICS which is what you should download and use ...check to make sure it requires hboot 1.58 first some ICS roms ...older ones... require hboot 1.5 still. if you go to the cdma development section youll see a slew of roms that can work with your device
and no.. they are linked to that account.... youd have to log into it and then download the apps... then add the other account for the rest of your contacccts and apps

jelly bean isnt officially released for the evo 3d... it was ported over and the hboot that it is designed with is hboot 1.5 or less ...until its officially released for the evo 3d byt then it could be a different hboot than 1.58 even

[Q] stable Cyanogenmod 10 stuck at bootup

Sorry, I posted this thread in wrong location..
Hi folks,
this is my first post on XDA. I have a Sprint htc EVO 4G LTE phone which was running on JB.
Thought of root and flash with CM. So, first I unlocked the bootloader using htc dev and installed TWRP custom recovery and then rooted.
Then I flashed the stable CM 10 then flashed gapps which is compatible for CM 10 version. so far so good. oh, btw I did nandroid backup before flash and also wiped to factory reset, cache and Delvic cache.
After the flash i clicked on reboot system and I see the Cyanogenmod boot, but its stuck at that stage and I waited for more than an hour. No luck.
Thank god I did back up before this, otherwise not sure what I'm gonna do.
But, could someone tell me why it gets stuck at this point. I know some of you guys had this problem. I searched everywhere but didn't get help. I thought of posting this in android development forum, but as a newbie I can't do that.
Please help me out.
P.S: when I'm on boot screen (power button + vol down button) I see unlocked at the top but I also have TAMPERED in red color on top of that. Was this normal? or do you think that is causing the problem? and what should I do now?
If you're on Hboot 1.15+, you need to flash the kernel separately from the ROM if you're S-on. Click the link in my sig for further info.
The tampered warning at the top of the bootloader screen is normal.

You are right. I must flash the kernel and I did. guess what? It got flashed and after CM boot the next screen is language setup and my touchscreen is not responding at all...only the power and volume buttons are working..
I had a backup so thought of going back to it and I restored to it. It is not even booting up. My phone stays at htc quietly brilliant screen for long time and then splashing screen 2 times in a minute or so and then restarting automatically.
I have no clue what to do at this point.
I had Jellybam ROM saved on my sd card so I wiped my phone and flashed it. after rebooting it got stucked at htc boot screen.
I'm thinking may be the kernel doesn't support the Jellybam ROM. Is it?
How can I change the kernel?
How can I use my phone now?
does Jellybam requires separate kernel to flash it?
can you recommend any ROM's which includes their own kernel?
any help is greatly appreciated.

The stable download is an ancient version of CM. Circa 2012 ancient. IRC = Internet Relay Chat. There should be a sticky on this forum for how to setup and connect to IRC. Latest build can be found there.

If you're on the latest OTA (Hboot 2.09, baseband ending in 1210) you can only run ROM's based off the latest OTA (software version 3.16). This is due to an upgraded touch panel driver, which is why your touchscreen doesn't work. You can gain S-off and downgrade the driver so you can run AOSP ROM's, like CM.
Most Sense ROM's include a kernel installer to simplify the flashing process when S-on (MeanBean & ViperROM, to name a few). Just follow the instructions in the OP for whatever ROM you're wanting to flash.

I flashed MeanROM_3.09 and its working perfectly. Nothing wrong with it, except I felt like its not a custom ROM. I meant its nothing but htc sence with some extra. I was looking for ROM's which should be like pure google interface. ex. CM, clean ROM etc
I know I have to downgrade my firmware and S-off, but looks like my doors were closed. I'm a windows user and all the support was for Linux. (I decided to learn Linux ) I can get this done if I find any guide on doing S-off on windows.

This is my device config
Device: HTC EVO 4G LTE
JEWEL PVT SHIP S-ON RL (This is what I see when I go into bootloader)
Android version: 4.1.1
ROM: MeanROM_3.09
Kernel: [email protected]!1 SMP PREEMPT
HBOOT: 2.09.0000
Build number: 3.16.651.3 CL147243 release-keys
Baseband version: 1.12.11.1210
Radio: 1.12.11.1210
PRI: 2.97_003

I'm not sure what requires to flash a new ROM, so I'm giving everything I know.
Thanks and I really appreciate your help.

Viper ROM has a "senseless" opción, when you flash it you can choose in the aroma installer this and it should remove most of sense or whatever is safe so you have the stability of sense plus some kind of pure google look by choosing nova or apex... It also has a kernel installer if you are s-on, a lot of customization and great support... Check it out here:

I know I have to downgrade my firmware and S-off, but looks like my doors were closed. I'm a windows user and all the support was for Linux. (I decided to learn Linux ) I can get this done if I find any guide on doing S-off on windows.

There is another option that was recently released for Windows users with the most current OTA for S-OFF called Moonshine. You can find it if memory serves me correctly in 'Android Development' in the EVO LTE forums here.
Forgot to mention about moonshine, it is windows friendly as fas as I know...

did you check the md5? did you made a nadroid of your meanbean setup? Team Venom has their own s-n kernel installer you can try to use it here is the link: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390288116658472175
edit: wrong kernel installer sorry! here is the right one: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390288116658474895
per OP in Viper Rom thread: Any User having issues with bootloops, please try Venom IMG Flasher to properly install the kernel. Choose the correct version above.
*This is currently for windows users only. It also includes TWRP recovery that you can flash if needed. Download the zip...extract...and run the .exe.

Finally I got it done and using Viper4G with Nova launcher.
What I did was booted into recovery again and choose custom installation. that's it. Not sure what was the issue before, but now its working.
But, I really want cyanogenmod 10 with 4.2.2. So my search is still open. will take a look at the moonshine.
You guys are rock..prompt and very quick responses..I wish I would have do root and participate in this forum years ago

Glad you got it fixed, try to get s-off using moonshine, as far as I know is windows friendly you just have to UNINSTALL HTC SYNC, and since you already rooted and unlocked I'm sure you have adb and fastboot in your computer and that's all you need! After that you should be able to downgrade your TP driver and use all the AOSP roms, man is great and now with Halo it's even better... Good Luck!
