I cant seem to get by this step. Stuck on step 9 of DirtyRacun
My RUU.zip is in the Dirtyracun folder on Ubuntu LiveCD and have verified the checksum. Ihave seen by a google search that other people outher have had this problem (pastebin) but I havent been able to find a solution. Can anyone help me? Everry thing has worked in the s-off process til now...
Have you tried the support channel? Are you on 3.16? If not you can use FacePalm
I had firefox crash on me and this RUU takes forever to download. Right now I am stuck at the HTC logo and cant move forward. I have tried the IRC but i sat there for 30 min looking at no response. I have downloaded this thing 4 times now.
if I ty fastboot reboot, it tells me I ont have fastboot installed? I wouldnt mind trying something else if I could get my phone back!
Hmmmm I never used DirtyRacun so can't really help much IRC is your only choice sorry
Edit did you try flushing it again?
Yes, like 3 or 4 times!..Downloading again...
Any luck?
Any luck yet? I'm getting the same error.

do you have htc sync installed? it seems that you need to have this installed to have the phone recognized for fastboot it happened to me and I have used dirty racun twice as I had my evo replaced twice this month, install it and then try to run the fast boot commands, good luck!
Mac problem?
Could the problem is that I'm running Ubuntu from my MAC? See this post:
Can't post the link, but found this on androidforums:
That's based on HTCdev unlock, so as mentioned, use MyBackup Pro and SMS Backup+ to save what you may, that unlock will do a factory data reset, all user data and apps will go away.
That will give you full root, with an s-on unlocked bootloader.
The option to get a s-off unlocked bootloader is only open to you if you have a Windows platform to run the Dirty Racun tool - either in Windows mode or from a Live CD using Ubuntu. (This has to do with how the Mac platform maps access to the usb ports, the Unlimited.IO team's stuff doesn't support it.)
If you do have a PC and want to try Dirty Racun, go here -

I already unlocked my phone but S-ON is still active. I looked into the dirtyraccun method but it mentions to not flash a custom recovery. I already have TRWM and Viper Rom installed. What would be the best method for getting S-Off? I have the latest firmware.

Make sure you have the latest HTC driver installed. Use a USB 2.0 port, make sure that HTC Sync is not installed on your computer, and that your computer antivirus is off.
You can get the latest driver in the link below. Use the HTC driver from post #2.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2179776
Also, it may take a few attempts before Moonshine is successful. On the phone I recently Moonshined, it took a few tries before it succeeded, and I had everything set up correctly.

I've been running into the same issues! It keeps getting stuck on the second step! I've been following all your suggestions you posted in my other thread as well. At least it got me to the second step in Moonshine.
All HTC drivers were removed and the new ones were reinstalled. Computer and phone rebooted, USB 2.0 port, etc... I even went to another PC and ran into the same problems. I'll try it some more since you said it took a few tries.
Edit: Now it won't establish a connection to complete the first step in fastboot even though the PC keeps making sounds when fastboot USB gets turned on

You have to use a live CD with Dirty Racun if you are running Windows. To answer your second question, no, you can't use terminal emulator on your phone, either. Please be careful with what you're doing, otherwise you risk having an expensive paperweight in your hand. Personally I would have gone the Moonshine route It's Windows friendly and you don't have to fool with any commands, other then checking device connection with ADB & fastboot.

Yeah I know. I'm being really careful with everything - reading up before I do ANYTHING. I've done this to several phones before, but never had this much trouble...
Do you know if it's possible to still use Moonshine at this point? I've gone through every single step for DirtyRacun except for #14 which is to run RabiesShot. I have the RUU for 3.15 HBOOT 2.09 installed and running fine right now. If I can use Moonshine (and actually get it to connect to the device now), I would rather do that.

Make sure you're doing a full system wipe in recovery prior to flashing the ROM. You also might want to try opening a command prompt in your ADB tools folder while in the bootloader and type the command "fastboot erase cache" (minus quotation marks) and hit enter. Make sure you're connected via fastboot USB first.

Try the method I described in the thread I came up with this morning - if you're comfortable with doing everything. It wasn't too hard to do. I just had to convert the jargon into words I could understand.
Try using the Moonshine method first though! It's easy and straightforward - if it will recognize your device (which it wouldn't recognize mine for some reason).
Here's what I did.
Good luck!

I get the same error messages. For the update one, make sure your firewall and anti-virus are off. That solved mine. For the "Error run distiller again" issue, that's what brought me here. Pleases let me know if you solve this!

I think the "run distiller again and read" part means you pushed some buttons and otherwise touched or maimed your phone while Moonshine is working. I solved my issue. I was unzipping Moonshine to one folder then cutting the visible files out and pasting them to a separate folder. This left behind a hidden file. Solved problem by unzipping directly to my SDK platform tools folder which contains adb.exe and fastboot.exe. Worked first try. I'd already stopped firewalls, turned off anti-virus and tried to switch to usb file sharing during install (which is why I was told to "read". None of those were required this time. Never touched phone even though it was not in correct file sharing mode, and it still worked.
I am sure this has been asked many times but after days upon days of searching and reading this thread and that thread I still haven't profit.
I am not a noob.
I swear I am not a noob.
When I first received this device, I was to excited about rooting and flashing a custom ROM that (1) I did not backup the stock loaded ROM [proved to be a major mistake] (2) I did not take the time to realize there is actually a 2 part step in fully achieving root.
I am HTC unlocked, rooted with a custom recovery (TWRP 2.6.1(?) (lastest) and custom AOSP ROM. S-ON
I have tried 4 different ROMS and nothing has been able to S-Off this device.
Now I am wondering if my setup has something to do with it. That is the only thing I can figure out.
Running Windows 8 with 4 different hard drives. One of them being a SSD. The SSD has the OS only on it. While everything else is on a second drive including ADB. Now the paths are set up to pull ADB from the D:/ drive. This is where I think the problem may lay. Does moonshine, somewhere in its programming, try to pull everything from the C:/ drive, while mine is on the D:/ drive?
I can get Step 1 booting to fastboot. Step 2 reboot. Step 3 booting to fastboot and then nothing but **************************************. Even after an hour passed, still *********************************.
ADB reads the device fine. I have changed the USB port to every port I have (5 different). Changed the cord 7 times. Get the same results each time.
I have also tried down grading my recovery to TWRP 2.3.1. so I may be able to load a stock rom. It will load but the touch screen will not respond to TWRP 2.3.1.
Here is what I have:
Sprint HTC Evo 4g lte (duh)
HTC Unlocked, rooted w/ custom recovery and custom ROM
Jewel PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.09.0000
Radio-1.12.11.1210
OPEN DSP-v31.1.0.45.0815
eMMC-boot
Am I going about things wrong or am I not able to achieve S-Off?
It sounds as though part of your issue might be with your drivers, which is why the test portion of Moonshine isn't completing. I've seen numerous posts regarding issues with Moonshine & Windows 8, so if you have access to another computer that's perhaps running Windows 7 you might try that instead. Can you connect your device via "Fastboot USB" mode, and if so, what happens when you run the command "fastboot devices" (without quotation marks)?
As far as your touch screen not working, the 3.16 software update included an updated touch panel driver so you have to use TWRP 2.4+. For the time being, I recommend installing MeanBean ROM, as it has a kernel installer to make S-on flashing easier. Simply do a full system wipe in recovery and flash the ROM zip. When you reboot, the phone will boot to the splash screen, then back to recovery. Flash the ROM zip again, and reboot. Remember, it may take a few minutes for the phone to boot up after you flash a new ROM.
Also, check PM.

I will setup my laptop this week. Unfortunately, it will not be until the weekend to test this out. It is a work phone, so during the week, I need to be stable and completely operational just in case I mess thing up. That way, I have two solid days to get it fixed (which has happened on more that one occasion).

After running moonshine 300+ times, it gets stuck at this part : https://www.dropbox.com/s/si72twuxavihut9/Screenshot%20%282%29.png
I'm sure it is something I have setup wrong.
You could just burn a live cd of Ubuntu and circumvent the whole thing, that's what I did.
Okay so I have been trying to root and I have tried everything I can find.
I have a fully upgraded phone so Revolutionary won't work for me out of the box and so I am trying to HTCDev unlock.
The problem though, is that I can't get Windows 8.1 to recognize my device. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers multiple times trying to get it to work. ADB works fine and can see the Thunderbolt but fastboot will not.
Nothing I have found has changed anything.
I also have a laptop with Ubuntu, would that work better?
You need to do it from a Windows 7 or lower computer. In order for the bolt to be seen in fastboot on Windows 8 it would require an update to the fastboot drivers on the phone which is very very unlikely.

Yes it should. Although, to unlock, s off and root ics on the bolt revolutionary isn't going to work straight up. You will have to downgrade the hboot version in order to be fully unlocked.

Okay, so I'm almost to the end...I'm to the point of putting the .19 ROM on my sd card and loading it into hboot.
What happens is that it recognizes it, loads it, checks it, and then goes back to hboot.
The suggestions from the post I am following say to try reformatting the SD card, or a different image. I have done both. Any other suggestions?
And by the way, thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it.

To run the RUU from Windows 7 64 bit, be sure to install latest HTC sync manager and connect phone to finalize driver installation. Then try again.

Ill need to check this one out. Thank you
no dice! still s-on
if it is of any concern my s-on shows RL after it?
Why don't you just do the RUU back to factory stock and try it from the beginning? It seems like it might save you some time over trying to troubleshoot what is actually wrong.
Try rumrunner again. That's what finally worked for me one time. Rumrunner didn't take the first time and it didn't make a difference running it a second or third time. Firewater didn't work either, but I had success when I went back to rumrunner.
My worthless theory is that, for whatever reason, RR wasn't able to complete a specific critical step, but that FW was able to handle it. But then FW encountered issues on a subsequent step. Going back to RR worked because, this time, FW already took care of the task that RR couldn't do the first time around.
Of course I don't have a stack of evo's sitting around waiting to be s-offed, so I didn't get much of a chance to test my theory. I seem to remain s-off now even after ruu.
Remember to wipe well. It will help prevent a stinky ROM as well as awkward social situations.
I ruu to the one that had sence 5 and then rooted and ran Firewater (2 TIMES) and I'm good! Thank you for all your help
