[Q] UNROOT - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

i need to unroot my evo i have to take it into sprint, i tried with installing RUU but it would not work, i have android version 4.1.1 and software 3.16 any help would appreciated

You're most likely running the wrong RUU

I think u need to relock to run a RUU

Yes!
To do this simply boot into boot loader click Fastboot then
Code:
fastboot oem lock
from the platform-tools folder from Android SDK

i did re lock the bootloader , could it be because i have 3.16 on my phone and the ruu is 3.15??

That's the reason....a good way to take care of it is to start the process of dirty racun s-off, they have a procedure in the beginning to get 3.16 ruu via a zip...just go up to that point to ruu your device. Follow the instructions carefully.

Are you in HBOOT when you try to relock? You should be. Also if you have a custom recovery you're going to have to RUU.

Easiest way to ignore the mainver is to get the kernel(boot.img) from the RUU or whatever ROM you're trying to flash. Then boot the phone into HBOOT, plug into your pc, and issue the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" (In DOS/Command Prompt). That will flash the kernel without dealing with the mainver issue.
Thanks everyone, I finally got the new ota radios and running clean rom 1.6. Patience was the key. I got my mainvers down to 1.00.000.0 as I was referred and WaaLaahttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467099
I apprecaite you guys help. I will be back I guarantee. I love trying out new roms.

Sounds like you don't have it named right.
Also verify that you don't actually have .zip.zip as windows hides file extensions

Yes, if you haven't updated the hboot you can't flash through fast boot.
You can get it from either the lazypanda website or by using regaws boot loader customizer

The hboot that comes with last panda allows fastboot commands. Go ahead and flash it if you haven't already. Your hboot version should say 1.12.2222 once it's done.

Via the bootloader.
I'm suprised you're trying to install recovery through fastboot and not through the bootloader. Thats one of the best perks to being S-OFF :laugh:

You can install all sorts of things through bootloader. It has to be on the external SD-card, not the internal one

yes you can. here is how to get s-on.
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
fastboot reboot-bootloader
*verify you are locked s-on
fastboot reboot
(you will need to load a non engineering hboot before doing the steps above.)

Yep, and as such, I highly recommend running the 3.14.605.12 RUU before doing those steps.
Also MAKE sure your not on an eng. Hboot when you turn s-on it would brick your phone.

load a non engineering hboot? I'm not faliluar "non engineering hboot".
An engineering hboot allows extended fastboot commands while locked...you can only run them when you're s-off. Just flash the OTA RUU before you run those commands and you'll be fine. That will get everything back to stock, hboot included.

easiest way to get the non engineering hboot its to ruu. that way you can minimized the risk of bricking when going back to s-on.
what you should do is this:
back up your rom.
back up your internal sd card.
flash ruu -3.14.605.12-
do the steps for s-on
check to make sure you are s-on
then you will be at 100% factory out of the box phone.
*** please make sure you are at 80% or higher on battery life and have some free time. this might take up to an hour to do successfully. ***

The only reason I suggested that particular one is that it is the current OTA. Flash it, and you'll be at the "official" versions on your hboot and radios.

2. *ADB required*
a. adb devices
b. adb reboot bootloader
c. fastboot devices
d. fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
e. fastboot reboot-bootloader
f. fastboot reboot (verify you are locked s-on)

This did loaded RUU and turned S-on but did not unlock. Tried this fastboot oem lock and that says "RELOCKED" not the same. It was worth a shot I guess.
While trying to reroot and get s-off I have managed to get things all jacked up. I am now S-on, Unlocked and Tampered. Is there a way out of this?
Anybody?

You won't be able to flash a rom or kernel if your s-on and locked. The only thing you can do is try and unlock bootloader or run RUU and restart from scratch
I can't unlock boot loader. Went thru the process and it said the token was too long. So I guess I'll look for the RUU and give it a go.

At what point did it say that? When you are trying to get it from the HTC site? If that's it you are just copying too much. Make sure you don't copy any extra characters at all.
If it's when you are flashing the unlock token bin file then I agree that you should just run the RUU and get back to fresh stock then try again.
Use the RUU that is the .12 version rather than the global leak, unless you have already run the global leak one, if you want to be able to take the newest OTA.

As far as I know you cant s-off hboot 1.02, besides, there is no need to, as you can pretty much do everything needed anyhow.
Your trying to install an ruu, so you need to re-lock hboot again.
From memory reboot into bootloader, connect phone to computer, select fastboot mode, in cmd mode on pc goto where fastboot.exe is and then type fastboot OEM lock.
Just double check that before doing it, the instructions were included in the unlocking email from htcdev.

Ok, I searched google on your behalf
Error 131 means you are trying to install an ruu not ment for the region of your phone, the solution is to either install the correct Rom for the region of your phone or make a goldcard, however at this point the website to make goldcard is not running.
There is however a backdoor to make goldcard that might work, look in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41527043 and have a read.
