Have you tried downloading the twrp pg86img.zip & make sure it's named PG86IMG.zip then put it on the root of you're sdcard, boot into bootloader and update that way?
CM powered EVO 3D, enough said.

when the device either hangs on the htc logo or reboots while on the htc logo, it means there is an issue with the actual kernel/ramdisk.
when dealing with a custom recovery, they should always boot without any issues. the best suggestion off the top of my head is to make sure if you're on the CDMA version, use the shooter recovery and if you're on the GSM version, use the shooteru version of the custom recovery.
otherwise, as suggested above, reflash the confirmed correct custom recovery for your device. there are a few ways to flash the custom recovery although, being you used the htc unlock method, regular custom recovery mode will not have write access to the boot/kernel partition.
if you're interested in loading any ROMs which come with kernels or separately flashing a custom kernel, there are essentially two complete methods:
1) use my Flash Image GUI app from normal android mode to flash the kernel. then flash the ROM from custom recovery.
2) use fastboot boot c:\android\cwm-recovery.img . this will temporarily boot the custom recovery and htc unlock will grant it write access to the kernel/boot partition. this command is different than fastboot flash recovery c:\android\cwm-recovery.img. the fastboot boot will temporarily boot into the custom recovery while fastboot flash will permanently write it into the recovery partition.
hope all the extra details make sense and helps!
Ummm.....Just my 2 cents, but it sounds as though the most basic possible problem has been overlooked here. You need to go into menu>settings>power and uncheck the "fast boot" box or do a battery pull, then try to boot into your bootloader to access recovery. With your phone completely powered down (fast boot unchecked or after battery pull), hold volume down and press power. That will put you in your bootloader with an option to boot recovery from there.
ok i'm a noob i've used thr shooter and not the shooteru cwm img, now all works

[Q] HTC EVO 3D GSM Boot loop

Ok i am stuck in boot loop. I will explain what i did.
I was on original ICS update from htc HBOOT-1.53.0007 and i decide to try out custom ROM
I followed this tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1535987
i unlock my device HTCDEV.com way i select evo 3d emea
I done this successfully and then i flash Clockworkmod recovery by clockworkmod.
Done this successfully!
Ok flashing time!
Downloaded and flash this ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991150
I did wipe every thing there is to wipe in recovery
Flashed successfully!
and then reboot
On screen there was Venom logo i was waiting for 15 min, nothing happened, take out battery, power on again waiting still nothing happened!!
Flashed again the same rom, this time with no wiping!
Same thing stuck with Venom logo.
Ok. lets get diferent ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1513055
Same thing, stuck with boot logo!
And then i get so called stock rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318942
this zip had boot.img inside
so when i flashed rom i go to bootloader and flash boot.img with fastboot flash boot boot.img that was successfully so i reboot device
this time the phone start to bootloop it gets to htc logo and then restart!
That's it now i don't know what to do. Don't know what guide/tutorial should i follow so i am posting here in hope to get some help
So again someone please help!!!
I would suggest downgrading to hboot 1.49.0007 (and then use revolutionary for s-off). With that you shouldn't have any problems flashing ROMs. I am currently using the 1.49.0007 hboot and I haven't got a single issue flashing Roms
Sent from my Evo 3D GSM
I suggest 1.49.0007. Before downgrade from 1.53.0007 i had boot loop issue too.
Yeah easier said than done!
Every tutorial i checked want me to download something, but i can't every thing is out dated s**t
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1743466
have you tried this?
i read it and i get so confused plus that wire trick it scares me! The whole tutorial is scary, so man methods
i think i will have to give it a try.
Unfortunately the wire trick is your only option of downgrading hboot. It isn't that difficult actually. Just make sure you follow the instructions to the letter
did i mention that i can not get in to system as a am stuck with booting up?!
ControlBear.exe just say press enter to exit so i am guessing that the phone need to be turned on for ControlBear.exe to work?!?
Rebooting from bootloader
Waiting...
...Waiting
Detecting...Starting up......
Connecting to device...
Testing ADB connection
Press ENTER to exit.....
I am starting to think that the best way to fix my phone would be the so called Hammer_way! They say it's one hit fix
Here is step by step instructions http: //unlimited.io/juopunutbear.htm
4. Turn ON USB Debugging on your device (Settings > Developer Options)
5. Verify fast boot is turned OFF (Usually found under Power Settings)
6. Connect your device and set to "Charge Only"
I simply can not do that i am stuck in boot loop!
anyway i found something

If you can access to recovery, then you can flash stock or another ROM.
Then set USB Debugging and repeat unlock.

You have to manually flash boot.img via fastboot.
i made it!! i managed to install stock original ICS RUU from OTA and i successfully did S-OFF!! Yuuuhuu
Now what? i am stil on HBOOT 1-53.777
I have the same problem before i find a good Rom for 1.53.0007. And i cant downgrade to 1.49.0007...
Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1906172
why would i want 1.49.0007?
My phone is now working normally with venom viper ROM, on HBOOT 1-53.777 S-OFF
If you satisfied with venom viper ROM then you dont need downgrade. But with 1.49.0007 you can flash more ROMs.

Rooting and recovery problems

Hey all,
I got my HTC One yesterday, and this morning i went to root the phone. I followed the steps in Hansoon's AIO toolkit and successfully unlocked the bootloader then flashed the CWM recovery. Then, when attempting to install superuser, i could not get my phone in to recovery mode. Every single time i either select recovery mode from hboot, or attempt to boot in to recover from my PC via the AIO my phone would boot as normal, and not enter recovery.
I assume that my recovery flash did not work correctly, but i could be wrong. Does anybody have any advice?

[Q] Evo 3d GSM boot loop after ROM flashed

Hi, i've a evo gsm unlocked with s-on hboot version 1.49.0012. I had flash the stock ICS ROM, but after reboot it will boot loop. I've tryed to flash boot.img via fastboot but it get <wait for device>. I must to disable fastboot from the phone? But how? Now i can access only in recovery mode. Help me!
download 4ext recovery from here. extract it in the folder where you have adb/fastboot files on your pc. then flash it like you flashed your previous recovery.
now boot into 4ext recovery and turn on smartflash in options. now flash rom you wont need to flash boot.img manually
thanks for the reply. There is a way for flash the 4ext via SD card? Actually i have revolutionary CWM recovery
yes you can but you'll need a rooted rom for that which actually boots. you're currently stuck without a rom so you need to get a rom to boot.
you dont by any chance use windows 8? it has some issues with drivers and establishing adb connection to phone
ok i've install 4ext via fastboot, but nothing it start and appear black screen after htc splash screen. After it reboot. Why??
i've hboot 1.49.0012 and i'm s-on. I want come back original ROM, how i can do? I must have s-off?? Please help me
i had tryed to flash any ROM, but they stucks at htc logo!! How i must do???

Enable smartflash in recovery and try again. Oh, and make sure you wipe everything except sd card before flashing

Please Help me HTC Evo 3D GSM Bootloop,Cannot enter recovery,S-On 1.53.007

Hi All
Please please help me...
I was on stock ICS rom hboot 1.53.007 (S-On),battery drained out..and suddenly it started bootlooping.
Now i am in bootloop for 3 weeks.I have tried many recovery methods like installing ICS ruu,flashing boot.img,
I have read many threads, tried many steps,but still bootlooping.
Please help me..
I am able to enter the bootloader and i am htc dev unlocked.
Thank you
Sorry for my bad English
Try ruu again, also remove SD card and test.
Thank you so much for the reply,
I have tried it again....still in bootloop..
I think my 3d does not recognise boot.img.
Is there anything I could do to recover my 3d.
It would be good if you wrote which method you used to unlock the bootloader.

Have you read the whole thread HTC EVO 3D GSM Boot loop?

Hi Thank you for the info..
Would you be able to share the download link for the RUU, which he( digitalyyy) may have used in the above thread (16 th post).
i have already tried this one http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo...00U_11.25.3504.06_M_release_262714_signed.exe, but no success.
i had used the htcdev unlock method:
fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin
Someone Please help me...
Need suggestion
Sorry for the bump.. I'm pretty much in the same boat with @princeof, stuck in boot loop and can't access recovery. I've tried these methods, but to no avail:
Flashed another recovery through fastboot (cwm 4.014 / cwm 5.020 / twrp 2.0, just the same).
Flashed boot.img (from my current Cool-ICS v18 ROM). Even after both of these are successfully flashed, it still goes into boot loop. I then use fastboot commmand to reboot-bootloader, try to access both boot.img and recovery, but still no dice, it'll just reboot the device into another boot loop.
Flashed RUU (tried the one suggested in the post above and another version that used to work); no luck.
Unlocked bootloader
Shooteru S-OFF
Hboot 1.49.0007
Is there any other method that you guys can recommend? I do have Nandroid backup, so if I can just get into recovery then I'm all set!
Edit: Finally got it to work!
Through PhilZ recovery, I wiped everyhing in sight (lol) and was able to use custom restore to partially restore my Nandroid backup (since it won't restore .android_secure, I got to extract it manually). Also, before the restore process, I need to disable MD5 check, coz it keeps complaining about missing fsinfo.md5 even though the nandroid.md5 is there. After that, I finally able to flashed & go into 4Ext to do a full restore properly.
