I've tried renaming the downloads to PG86IMG.ZIP but all it does is gives me a progress bar, parses and then goes back to the fastboot menu.
I've tried to install clockworkmod and twrp but since I don't have superuser, it won't work.
I tried pushing through adb and fastboot but no write access.
I'd like to put carbon jellybean on it.
I know I"m missing a step here somewhere. But what is it?
You wont be able to flash custom roms on fastboot and u cant flash recovery because ur bootloader is locked you kust somehow reflash the bootloader or get it unlocked.

OK. I think I understand. I just don't understand how I locked myself and why it is so difficult to unlock when I was unlocked before.
I'm going tyhrough the [email protected] and waiting for my bin file. Hopefully it will come soon.
Once I go through that process, what's next? How do I install either twrp or clockworkmod as I don't have SU?
Well u probably flashed an ics ruu which had bootloader update in it so it locked it. U can flash recovery.img trough adb .

If i helped, press thanks

I know just enough to be dangerous.
Any idea how long it takes to get this .bin file from the htcdevelopers ?
Once I use that file, then I can what? Just rename CARBON-JB-UNOFFICIAL-20130513-143602-shooteru.zip to PG86IMG.zip in the root of my SD card and then it will work? Or do I have to do something else? If so, what? It's late and I'm getting foggy. Wanted to get this up and running for morning use.

You are wrong. I have also LOCKED BOOTLOADER and S-OFF. I can flash anything. Even, 4ext recovery is flashed in my evo3d. As you are S-OFF, you can rw anything

I unlocked my bootloader using htc dev and was following this to s-off:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1471246
before the PG86IMG.zip update started, i got a message that the cid is invalid
now the device is stuck on the htc splash screen, please help me asap!!
what should i do!?
should i choose the factory reset option??
Probably your best bet. Generally, if you can get to boot loader and recovery, you aren't too bad off.
i haven't installed any recovery, i can get to the bootloader though
should i install any recovery now using fastboot?
Someone please help, i havent installed any recovery and i am stuck on htc splash screen, bootloader is relocked, please help!
You should read the downgrade thread again... You MUST change th cid before flashing the pg86img... I had the same problem when I done it...
Or you can get the 2.17 stock ruu and run it to get back to stock and start over...

Try the stock 2.17 ruu.exe... Not PG86IMG, then start over... The stock signed PG86IMG.zip might work, but I had to use ruu... Once you get your phone back to 2.17 stock, unlock, change cid, relock, and go from there...

Downloading the stock zip now...So that means, even in future if i have to revert back to stock from custom rom or whenever i am stuck at htc splash screen i just use the stock PG86IMG.zip and go to the bootloader and update? Right? Or is the goldcard required for s-on and s-off both?

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:

Download the file above and rename to PJ75IMG.zip and place it on the root of the sdcard. Boot into bootloader and accept the update. Boot back to the rom and rename/remove the file"
You can install all sorts of things through bootloader. It has to be on the external SD-card, not the internal one

I achieved s-off with dirty racun but I have not been able to get into recovery or flash a ROM. I am wondering if my bootloader didn't get unlocked.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
i guess you didnt realize why there are only roms posted in this section
1. You should know for a fact when you unlock your bootloader as is says TAMPERED big as hell after you do it. 2. You need to flash a recovery via adb "fastboot flash recovery.img" because your phone does not come stock with a recovery so it will not appear if you haven't flashed one. 3. You clearly posted in the wrong section and if you don't take time to read (rules and guides step by step) around here you most likely won't be helped and you may even get made fun of.

Have you rooted your phone, or have you only run Dirty Racun? Gaining S-off and root are not the same, and Dirty Racun won't root your phone. You have to unlock your bootloader, flash a custom recovery and the proper su binary to attain root, at which time you can flash ROM's, etc.

Need help with flash a recovery. Re-locked by phone and flash 2.13 RUU so I could get the OTA. After getting the OTA I unlocked again and trying to get root and nothing is working. When I use the command "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.1.8-jewel.img or fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-jewel.img" it keepingsaying "sending 'recovery' (7220 KB)..." and never happens. It just sits there. The OTA installed hboot 2.09. Anyone have any ideas what is going on and does anyone else have the same problem after taking the OTA.

Thanks for the reply. I have it working now. In fastboot mode the drivers provided no longer work. I had to download and install HTC Sync with the latest driver. The I was able to install a recovery (TWRP) system. With the posted drivers would not work.

OK so I used the bootloader to flash the 3 option in Haus's thread and every thing is working. But....
Now on the bootloader screen it says locked tampered then S-off.
I was told the locked was just wat it was saying and didn't matter.
So do I have a locked boot loader? And does that even matter for anything or was it just required to get root plus S-off?
Did I mess up getting the newest hboot from the firmware? I was told I needed it to run meanbean.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
I'm not sure what u flashed but it sounds like you flashed the whole thing which means you have stock recovery now. Either fastboot flash recovery image or download thru goo manager.
Once you have a custom recovery installed your all set. Don't worry about the locked on your bootloader

You should have flashed the first file the one with no kernel,hboot, or stock recovery that would have updated everything you needed to be updated
So did I mess anything up? I was able to flash mean bean without any issues.

I don't have gsm.
Maybe you need hboot 1.5* that was on your other phone.
Smartflash is for s on
I would recommend using 4ext though
I would suggest changing your hboot
Reboot to recovery
Wipe all partitions except sd
Reboot recovery
Wipe all partitions again
Flash Rom
Reboot
If it still boot loops,
Then fastboot flash boot boot.IMG
Good luck

I managed to make my phone ok again,using a ruu. I think this is the best chance, relock if you are s-on unlocked,flash the ruu via fastboot,and the just use the htc unlock method to gain unlock bootloader and root... It was a log operation...it takes a lot of time ..but well, it worth it. My phone is now ok. You could give this a try. Search the forum on how to revert back to stock rom using a ruu.
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using xda app-developers app
There is no need to relock, and get s on.
You can run ruu through bootloader as a pg86img.zip, and retain s off.
That will give you all stock, but s off
However you need to get the Rom.zip from ruu and rename it first

Have you tried other roms?
Or restoring a backup?
Maybe you should go ahead and run the ruu.
I do not have gsm, but I'm sure its the same process of flashing.

Alright then, RUU, re-unlock (& s-off), and flash a custom ROM.
if you can't fix your problem, the RUU will, and allow you to start fresh. S-off is the best way to go.
