Trying to use revone to get back to s-off after installing the new OTA update but I'm getting an error.
I saw in the revone thread that it should work on hboot 1.44 which mine still is.
Specifically, I'm getting error -6. Anyone successfully gain s-off after the new update?

i'm having the same problem I'm going to try and relock and revert back the firmware to the original software
Can you even downgrade back to a fully stock .8 phone after installing the .11 update? Assuming the phone is S-On of course.

no theres no full ruu for the original version what i'm going to try to do is fast boot flash whats in the old ruu
OK if you wouldn't mind letting me know how that goes. It's not a huge deal for me since I wasn't running any ROMs due to really liking wifi calling and the tmobile camera but I'd like to know I can get back to S-Off if I wanted

I have S-off with .11... it was off before the update, just had to re-install the stock recovery for the update to install. Can toggle on and off.
Now it seems the camera update (that restores HDR) has caused my camera to no longer work AT ALL.
Yeah. I didn't know that the update would work with s-off so I turned it back on before updating.

You're going to need to follow this method, which uses HTCs bootloader unlock method. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1225974
Either that, or wait a little bit and see if revolutionary gets updated to work with the new 1.5hboot.
Is there a RUU for the 2.3.3? If so, when all else fails, revert back, root, then flash a ROM based on the 2.3.4.

There is an RUU for 2.3.3, but you can't downgrade if you're unrooted with S-on. It will throw an error at you about 'main version older' or some crap like that, because HTC makes it so you can't downgrade bootloaders (unless you're S off already, then I'm pretty sure you can downgrade)
I'd rather wait for a root method than going with the HTC unlock

If I were you, yes, I would wait for a different root method. I heard Revolutionary is working on a root for the new OTA.
The real question is, whena re they not
Anyone with new information on this yet?

I was wanting to unroot this EVO 3d. Just making sure that its ok to take an OTA update on HTC unlock method once the update comes through. I couldn't find anything regarding if its ok to proceed once released.

Crap wrong place please move to Q&A thought I hit that.

If you are wanting to root:
Rule #1 - Do not take OTA updates. Always let a Dev check it out and post it up on the Dev Forum before updating. More times than not, you will lose root and receive an updated HBoot.
Wanting to unroot. I used HTC method to unlock bootloader wondering if this will cause an issue technically receiving an OTA update will unroot and set to stock OTA firmware, radio, data, Wimax, and hboot also stuff I missed but what will happen to an unlocked bootloader through HTC methods.

Reading comprehension this morning is not up to par yet. Sorry.
You may have to re-lock it to get OTA updates, "fastboot oem lock"
I was thinking that since the boot loader was the only thing effected by the HTC method it may not read the signature correctly for the OTA. I know the RUU has to have a lock signature for the hboot to ID the update or maybe nothin will happen and it will update fine.

I lost my root on the last OTA and since there are still no new method to re root on this new version might as well wait till the JB update. I think by Mid August / Sept we can see the new OTA to JB

There is a thread that I used after the OTA by xHausx that brought back r00t for me flawlessly, and I used HTC Dev to unlock the bootloader?

I almost tried this until I read the following ~ I wanted the fixes in the latest OTA:
"Successful in rooting all builds up to 1.13.651.1."
It works for 1.22. It unlocks your phone and installs twrp. You just have to flash chainfires 0.94 superuser to be fully rooted

Wait, this is getting confusing. We should always be able to unlock thru htcdev on this phone no matter the firmware update. Achieving S-OFF is not yet possible on hboot 1.15, so, that's what some of us are hoping to have...

Yes, S-OFF on hboot 1.15 is a work-in-progress, perhaps with a future Lazy Panda exploit.
I believe the original user's requirement was root and unlocked on the current OTA.
These are HTC phones. You can always use HTC dev as a last resort. We will always have root.
Also, don't accept otas if your rooted or ever plan on rooting.

Believe that s-on with the new hboot restricts u as to what is flashable, ie kernels, splash screens, radios. Whereas the old hboot does not. Why some of us are waiting for s-off on current ota/hboot.

If a evo 4g lte is rooted but S-on can it accept ota while in this state? Thanks.

You have to relock your bootloader to be able to take the OTA I'm pretty sure

I think you just need to type "fastboot oem lock" without the quotes in a cmd window.
An RUU will take you back to complete stock.
I have never done it so not 100%
Question why have you not tried to go S-OFF? It would save you so many headaches.
I'm pretty sure you need the stock recovery to accept an OTA so RUU is probably the way to go
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
I can confirm. RUU failed until I had the stock recovery and locked bootloader

Thanks fellas
adb tools w/stock recovery incase anyone needs it
I'm S-On, Unlocked, rooted, hboot 1.15 and have TWRP (don't recall which custom ROM I installed months ago but it is stock based). When I checked for the JB update I was notified it was there and was able to download it but I haven't tried installing yet. Will I be able to install it or will I need to re-lock, un-root or otherwise modify my phone before I can install stock JB?
Some people are having trouble recovering root after 2.03, might be better to wait a bit longer
I've been looking through the threads and haven't seen anything similar to the issue I have. I'm running the new meanbean except all my radios, hboot and all that is pretty out dated. Probably the reason why I can't get 4g yet the wife's phone, sitting next to mine, is showing full bars. I have been trying and trying to install any radio update, jewel pack I can find to update my radios. I'm running the latest version of twrp. Everytime I try to install any update pack through twrp it fails. I've even tried older versions, yet newer than mine, and still get the same results. Any help from you guys would be appreciated. Posting was my last resort.

S-OFF your phone then update firmware/radios. The only way to update your firmware while S-ON is to re-lock and take the OTA

Option 1 - Relock and run the 3.15 RUU. Then take the 3.16 OTA then Dev Unlock.
Option 2 - DirtyRacun to get S-OFF and head on over to Captain's thread for flashable that will update your radio, pri, nv, touchpanel etc.
Honestly I would recommend getting S-OFF while it is still available.

You can use FacePalm to S-OFF if you are not already on 3.16
Ok, so I just noticed I wrote s-on, sorry guys I'm s-off. I swear I wrote that originally, I guess not.

Did all that, most of the time I get the bad image message. When it does go through I'll get a blue status bar on the right, will fill up than will say parsing that particular file. After that, the parsing message goes away and that's it, goes back to hboot menu. It apparently never updates because my versions don't change above the menu.
I'm almost wondering if there's a hardware issue which could be causing the updates to not install.

Download this file and place it on the root of your external SD card:
http://d-h.st/mFj
Rename the file PJ75IMG. Some operating systems automatically hide the zip extension so check and make sure (it should appear as PJ75IMG.zip). Once you've done this reboot to the bootloader and update. If you are indeed S-off I can't imagine why it won't work otherwise.
