I've a Desire X, flashed I thing after complete unlock with a wrong ROM and tried everything, from flashing any custom ROM, relocking and tried to flash RUU with always 132 Error of bad signature. And when with the TWRP I was able to flash custom rom from SD, finished it and after reboot to intall, stucked on the Recovery.
Infos from Bootload:
PROTO PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.25.0002
RADIO-1.15.40.04
eMMC-boot
Is it linked to version of HBOOT? I tried to downgrade but was not able yet....
And when I check the boot_signed.img file in all rom.zip of RUU I have, the CRC is bad reported during extraction... strange.
Thanks for Help
if you're on hboot 1.25 (jellybean) you have to make sure the updater-script of the rom you want to flash uses the correct mountpoints.

I tried both solutions, not booting after flash... black screen only.
How to return to older version of HBOOT?
you did flash the kernel (boot.img), didnt you?
Yes everything as described, with the TWRP I'm able to completely flash a ROM, and once rebooted, return to Recovery....

you're sure youre on hboot 1.25? cause IF you're still on hboot 1.24, and you flashed a jellybean rom (via a very special manual etc), you have to boot your sys via "boot recovery" because the sizes of the partitions differ from the ones on hboot 1.25. afair when your trying to boot sys the normal way, it boots recovery, cause of the "switched" partitions. (boot.img from jellybean doesnt fit into boot-partition from ics, thats why its flashed into recovery partition and so on...)
try to boot recovery (from recovery), sounds stupid but give it a try
Yes I tried, not working, just returning to recovery. And it's well 1.25.0002...

open up the zip of the rom you want to use and try maually flashing the boot.img file through fastboot... if youre on hboot 1.5...are you also s-off or s-on?

My guess would be 1.5 s-on since that seems to cause the most bootlooping issues. I recommend you get 1.4 s-off (see my signature) or 1.5 s-off. That makes flashing work much better, especially ICS ROMs.

However just ran into a new problem, when i rebooted my phone just goes into a boot loop again had to manually flash the boot.img file
I guess Im just a idiot for the command i just booted it not flashed it in fastboot seems to be working fine now
Hi,
I've been searching through posts for help. But I might have run into a combination of bad luck and noobness, and I can't perform any suggested recovery procedure that I've found smoothly. If you think my problem can be solve by another answered post please link.
My phone was rooted (from the HTCDev tool) and sim unlocked. This morning I started the Update pushed from HTC (that should be the ICS update???). The update last more than 40 minutes (I wasn't watching) and stuck on the HTC boot screen. I thought it's problem hanged, unplugged the battery (maybe I noobed out here? shouldn've waited 4 hours? or do a hard reset instead?).
Anyway, from that point onward it's hang on boot.
I boot it up the the hboot menu. Go to recovery, tried wiping the cache, tried the factory reset. No luck.
Here is what I have on HBOOT
*** UNLOCKED ***

When I tried to run the "update from SD card" in the recovery mode I always get the
E:can't open /cache/recovery/command
no matter what I've put in the SD card
When I try to use 4EXTRecovery, it always says error: device not found
I also tried to use revolutionary to turn S-OFF but it always stuck on waiting for device
the fastboot command line from HTC Dev however, can talk to the phone slightly...

But the phone doesn't turn to the unlock agreement page, phone remains S-ON.
I don't have CWM installed on my phone yet. And I don't know how to get it onto my phone with market place. Putting update.zip in SD card doesn't seem to trigger the phone in any way.
At this point, I think I should?
S-OFF my phone?
See if I can use fastboot to flash any workable ROM / boot / Recovery onto the phone?
Any help would be great.
Thanks a lot.

If I remember correctly to update to the official OTA you need to put the stock recovery back on your phone and re-lock it.
I don't really care whether it is official OTA or not. I just want to get my phone back to work. Do you have any link to where I can get the OTA and how to do it?
Does it require turning S-OFF? I'm under the impression it is blocking me to do anything. And because my phone is already in a bad state a lot of the tools is not communicating with the phone right now...
No luck with the OTA. I was able to get CWM onto recovery through fastboot, and also tried flashing King Cobra. But the phone still won't be with King Cobra, I'm still on S-ON. Revolutionary still won't connect.
u dont need s-off with 4ext recovery
I had an unlocked EVO3D (htcdev method) and the problem you had happened to me too. The phone stuck at the initial splashscreen and iI had to pull the battery off.
To have my phone back it was enough to use 4ext to restore a saved backup I had
done previously.
If you dont have backups then installing KingCobra (1.5, I have issues with 1.6) should be enough to solve. Copy the rom to the sdcard and then install it via 4EXT.
If you want to go S-OFF i recommend to use the wire-trick method
unlimited.io/juopunutbear-public-beta-0-1/instructions
It's tricky indeed but works very well.

How do you get 4EXT onto the phone? Is there anyway to flash it to recovery? Or do you already have it flashed before? I was trying to find a 4EXT recovery flash but no luck.
I tried using CWM flashed to the recovery and installed King Cobra, it installed but still doesn't boot up. I also tried flashing boot.img onto boot (by using fastboot) but the phone still doesn't boot up. The firmware (PG86IMG.zip) wouldn't flash tho, so maybe I need either S-OFF or 4EXT to do that.
Thanks.

DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK / RUIN YOUR PHONE IN ANY WAY.

4Ext was already flashed. However what you did should be ok. Are you sure that the boot.img that you flashed is the correct one for the ROM that you installed?
The boot.img on the KingCobra main page belongs to the 1.6 version.
You can extract the correct one for the 1.5 version from the ROM zip file.
The path in the zip file is Custom/Kernels/Stock/boot.img
I used the 1.5 version with the original radio without problems.
Fixed this by:
1) Getting the official RUU on ICS.
2) Connect USB in HBOOT
3) Use fastboot to relock the bootloader
4) Run RUU on Windows and successfully flashed everything
So seems like S-ON pluse unlocked bootloader means no no to both official rom and custom rom.
Hello everybody.
Before posting this thread I have read lots of similar threads, but no answer...
My evo was running fine on Mwakious3D rom v.15.3, I was s-off, 4ext recovery, Hboot 1.49.1107, kernel coolexe (integrated in Mwakious rom).
Yesterday night I had network connection problems, so I tried to switch from GSM only to GSM/CDMA auto and back.
My device freezed and I could not get back it responding, so I pulled the battery out.
Then I put back the battery in and tried to turn it on.
From that moment, when I try to turn it on, it shows the HTC splash screen, then after about 10 seconds it turns off by itself and starts bootlooping.
I tried to enter recovery trough Hboot, but even recovery gets stuck on HTC splash screen and the device gets very very hot, then a bootloop starts. I have to pull the battery out because I fear I can damage it.
So I tried to flash again the boot.img from the rom I was on, through Fastboot in command line. The operation succeeded, but when I tried to reboot, I always got bootloop.
So I tried to fastboot flash a new recovery becaue I thought mine was broken. I tried to flash 4ext, cwm and twrp.
Even this didn't fix the problem: I can't get past HTC splash screen either in normal rebooting nor recovery.
So I tried to flash the P86img.zip contained in this thread at letter E: ht_tp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1743466 (sorry, I can't post URLs).
Even after flashing that, no way I can get past the HTC splash.. I can't access recovery, even if I try to boot it from fastboot.
I don't know what to do anymore.
Please help!!!
My configuration at the moment:
Hboot 1.49.0007 s-off
Radio: 10.13.9020.08_2m
Recovery: 4ext
Please, help me as soon as possible, you are my only hope to unbrick my Evo 3D!!!
Another information: I try to access the device also via adb.
It returns me empty devices list.
If I run adb usb, it returns me error:no device connected.
I have the HTC drivers v.3.007 installed. I tried both on XP x86 and W7 x64.
Fastboot instead recognizes the device, so that I can flash *.img.

Thanks a lot... i'm trying in a couple of hours...
I will feedback if it's working.
Bad news dude!!!
I relocked hboot then ran the latest RUU.
Flashing process proceeds well and completes, but after it the phone keeps bootlooping. Always stuck to HTC splash logo.
In the bootloader menu "recovery" is still there. I can't boot into recovery either because I get the usual bootloop.
Any further ideas?
At the moment I am on
Hboot 1.53.0007 relocked s-on
radio -11.25.3504.06_m

when I run adb usb it still responds error: device not found
Now I unlocked back Hboot and succeeded in flashing recovery (4ext).
Anyway that f***ing bootloop is still there... I can't access recovery...damnit:crying:
Take out your sdcard and see if you can boot into recovery, taking a shot in the dark but could be a corrupt sdcard
(Don't ask me for help as I couldn't care if your phone explodes, eh!
try "fastboot boot recovery.img" in cmd. but the real problem is that running RUU didnt work. are you sure it flashed completely? I'd say run it again
Sorry, friends, I tried both methods without success...always that bootloop after... Even trying fastboot boot recovery.img... I can't get into recovery menu. Only hboot menu... Maybe I could try once again to flash the RUU.exe after relocking bootloader...any better ideas than mine? I'm starting to lose hope...
Hi,
I have nearly the same issue.
i played to much with reroot and unroot.
Now my evo gsm austria is:
shooter_u pvt shp s-off rl
hboot 1.53.0007
radio 10.13.9020.08_2m
eMMC boot
I can access recovery, but it doesn't matter which rom i flash i always have the bootloop. I even flashed different recoveries and the extracted boot,img from the roms (via fastboot). But i'm stuck in the Bootloop.
When i try to flash an RUU as PG86IMG i get the message CID incorrect.
CID is VODAP120
I hope someone has the answer.
thanx michael
---------- Post added 9th December 2012 at 12:05 AM ---------- Previous post was 8th December 2012 at 11:37 PM ----------
I changed my CID now:
fastboot oem writecid HTC__01
moved a non branded pg86img to the root of my sdcard and it ran through
now my phone is back to hboot 1.49.0007
looks good at the moment
i want to get back to full stock, to get original ICS
but i can't get updates, they always fail during the installation . even when i was locked and s-on
It runs again - back to life
So what did i do next.
The official OTA Update to ICS came down!
But wouldn't install
So i extracted the firmware.zip moved to PG86IMG.zip and flashed over the bootloader.(just 24MB - Boot,Bootloader)
It installed rebooted and at the moment a very long black screen, lets see how long
---------- Post added at 06:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:27 AM ----------
No bootloop, but nothing else too
Next step
extract the rom.zip from "RUU_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.28.401.1_Radio_11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M_release_262714_signed"
moved as PG86IMG.zip to root of SDCARD
and flashing over Bootloader
lets wait

Extract the rom zip file and rename it to PG86IMG.zip , put in root of sdcard and flash in bootloader.
I'm running out of ideas here. Running an RUU is a last failsafe method of restoring your phone to stock but that isnt working for you. Maybe try another ruu(the one which was on your phone when you purchased it)
I'm having some issues aswell.
I flashed 4ext because some roms would get stuck on the htc logo screen for half an hour..
Flashed the NonSense rom, worked fine, made a backup of it.
Then i wanted to test Viper's latest rom with sense 4.0, flashed it with 4ext, successful.
I found NonSense better in my opinion so i went to backup, and restored the ROM. After that i couldn't get any further than the htc logo screen.
I switched to clockwork, twrp but no result. I tried even other ROMs but i still can't get pass that cursed splash screen.
And yes, i deleted cache and dalvik etc..
The only thing i haven't tried is getting the stock rom and flashing it to see if it works.
Also, would some of you be kind enough to give me the recovery.img of the latest version of 4ext? I can't find it anywhere, not even on my sd card.
Thanks, looking forward to your answers.
my advice would be to do a clean install of nonsense rom. Wipe data+factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, install rom.
btw are you s-off or s-on? be sure to turn on smart flash in case you're s-on.
I've attached 4EXT RC5

i was previously running Meanrom 6.4 rooted S-ON and i decided to S-OFF my phone
i have RUU my phone and unlock the bootloader through dirtyracun s-off but when i was about to run the final step which is RabiesShot.exe(to S-OFF), my laptop have barely any battery left so i decided to not do that for the time being.
after that, I am still running the RUU 2.13.651.1 - HBOOT 1.19 without Root or any mods.
I decided to flash the "PJ75IMG - Stock Kernel". i renamed it to PJ75IMG and put it on my sdcard and it did successfully flash.
the problem is that my phone wont boot past Sprint Logo(it would suddenly black screen of death).
also, since i have no way of removing the PJ75IMG on the SD card, everytime i try to access recovery, it automatically tries to flash that file then it would exit and reboot automatically.
the only way for me to skip that part is to remove the sdcard.
my TWRP is also gone so i cannot flash any roms.
i have no card reader so i cannot place any stuff on my micro sd. :crying:
i though about downgrading the kernel to the previous working version through fastboot but when i looked for the files, they say downgrading would result in a brick.
is there any way i can maybe fastboot jellybean or ics or the kernel to make my phone work again?
edit:
if i did flash the Jellybean with my current kernel, is there a way to achieve S-OFF?
i also havent found stock jellybean rom that isnt rooted

If i were you, i would go back through the s-off process if you can, that will get you back to stock and s-off, then install latest twrp, and then instal OMJ's custom release of the new JB update, it will give you root and the new update, Install the radios since you are s-off and you are good to go.
You need to finish that last step to gain s-off though lol. You should have waited.
Also, im not sure if that is just the kernel, but if it is, just the kernel and nothing else. Then you should be able to do s-off fine still.
Someone correct me if im wrong, i just learned this whole s-off process today so i could do the update.

I had the same problem.
1.remove the PJ75IMG file from exrtenal sd card.
2.reboot to fastboot pres factory reset
3. immidietly press and hold volume down, this should get you to recovery.
4. wipe
5. restore a backup rom
6.reboot
It worked for me after hours of trying other methods.
I just went through a bootloop mess. What i did to get my phone back was to use fastboot and use commands (on my pc) like
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (for TWRP)
fastboot flash boot boot.img (for Kernel)
That got my phone back up and working.
Have you tried this?

ok i believe, fastboot should get you twrp. As will it get you the boot flash.
Fastboot flash zip (latest twrp)
Fastboot flash boot (ICS sense rom's boot.img extracted from zip) (this will get you the kernel)
Reboot hold vol down and power to get to bootloader
select recovery
Twrp wipe and flash ICS rom you got the boot img from. (this will take a bit because it wont install kernel, but you already have it from step 2)
you should boot into the rom. then re-do Dirty Raccoon installation, go all the way through, and you should now be s-off
re-install twrp
Flash radios in bootloader (fastboot flash zip (.zip for radios) (link one from Original android development jelly bean flashables post) (optional)
Go to twrp, factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvic, wipe syste.
Twrp Flash OMJ's custom JB release of this update, or stock with goodies, or jewel-swag.
Wipe cache/Dalvic
reboot.
I think this should work but i would immagine you've tried it already. Im running the new kernel and am experiencing no problems with it.
If you're s-off just use fastboot to flash a new kernel, no need to do a factory reset or anything else.
The kernel and ROM must be installed as a pair, just upgrading one isn't going to work.
So I recently tried installing MidnightRom Jellybean on my EVO but got stuck on the Beats audio Logo Screen. I cant do anything except go to CWM v5.8.0.1 Recovery Menu and HBOOT Screen... Later figured out MNJB Doesn't work on 1.58 HBOOT
So I need to return it back to stock or something?
The RUU Program doesnt launch on my computer and i have drivers installed

you should always make a nandroid backup of your current rom before flashing a new one so you can return if anything goes wrong. right now there are a couple of choices you can make. you can either flash a rom which works with your hboot or you can RUU back to stock.
If you want to run an RUU then you need to relock your bootloader first. boot into fastboot and type "fastboot oem lock" in cmd. then run RUU.
if you wish to install a different rom then first of all change your recovery to 4ext
extract zip file and flash recovery.img like you flashed cwm recovery. then boot into recovery and turn on smartflash in options (this is important as you are s-on. this will flash boot.img for you)
after that wipe everything except sdcard and flash a sense based rom
I don't think you can run ruu. 1.58 hboot is from the latest update, and afaik the ruu will only work on phones that did not take that update, unless you were s off.
You need to flash a stock Rom such as harmonia.
You may need to flash boot.IMG through fastboot to get out of bootloop.
And yes, you should definitely install 4ext recovery, and make sure smartflash is enabled
