My Phone:
Carrier: Sprint (Flashed to Page Plus)
Hardware Version: 0002
Software Version: 2.95.651.6 710RD
Model Number: PG86100
Android Version: 4.0.3
HTC Sense Version: 3.6
HBOOT Version: 1.58.0000
SHOOTER XC SHIP S-ON RL <--- I have no idea what this is but I thought you might need it
Questions​-Will rooting my phone completely reset it? (Will I loose everything I have saved on it?)
-What would the best method be for my phone? (Please give me a link to a TuT or something )
-What files will I need to root my phone? (Please give me a link to a TuT or something)1.
Yes I know that rooting my phone will void warranty but I am okay with that!

Nobody??

i have an wifi issue error so i decided to search in the whole EVO 3D forum
i see a lot of answer that wifi issue on HTC EVO 3D GSM can be solved by flashing an Custom rom so i decided to do that,
i unlock my bootloader using HTCDEV then i install recovery using this command
fastboot flash recovery (the name of the file .img)
and it works smoothly
i installed the MIUI.us_shooter_2.4.6_Eng_Deo_ZipA_Signed.zip via install SD card on recovery but after reboot
my HTC EVO hang on HTC Logo so now every custom rom i flash is smoothly can flash on my htc via Recovery
but every custom rom i flash on my htc is cannot be solved my problem about the htc logo only so i decided to relocked my bootloader and flash an ruu
i checked my CID and its HTC__001 i think that 001 cid is an EUROPE branded so i download the latest RUU on football thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1208485
and the latest europe version he have is 'RUU_Shooter_U_HTC_Europe_1.20.401.8_Radio_10.59.9020.00_10.15.9020.06_M_release_219793_signed
so i downloaded it and flash on my htc but the RUU give me bootloader error so think about why its give me bootloader error so i search it on the google and it see that was an hboot problem the one i use to flash on my HTC evo is lower than my hboot.. anyone can give me the higher version of RUU of europe?
or any suggestion about my cid HTC__001?
i dont have any goldcard so i cannot by pass my cid i only use goldcard tool to make a goldcard but i dont have any good set here to be able to take the goldcard.img on an HTC EVO 3D GSM
any suggestion is highly apprecited
same problem here... i nearly read evry tutorial regarding hboot downgrade .. but my phone just stucks on logo..
custom roms are installed successfully but after reboot always same stuck on logo...
i m with hboot 1.49.0009
s-on
bootloader unlocked
flashed recovery
rooted
installed custom rom
all in vain... any help is appretiated
I am also having same wifi problem. I didn't found any Stock Voda-Hutch ICS RUU for EVO 3D so I tried to flash Europen RUU. But at the end Rom didn't install and I got wifi error. I also tried different custom roms but no use. I can't root and s-off my device because HBOOT version is 1.53.007 Phone CID is VODAP021.
I found one difference in Rom below:

HTC Evo 3D (Shooter) x515a Voda-Hutch - Stock ICS RUU Required

Dear All,
I am looking for:
HTC Evo 3D (Shooter) x515a Voda-Hutch - Stock ICS RUU
I could find it any where on internet. My phone is up to date with ICS 4.0.3 But since I upgraded I am having problems in sleep timer, gallery, and force close in some programs. I can't downgrade GB because bootloader version is different.
I will be thank full if anyone in the world could help me in this regard.
Thank you

I think you are GSM so it's Shooteru
( Don't ask me for help as I couldn't care if your phone explodes, eh! )

Thanks, Man I already know it's "Shooter_U". But I am looking for "Stock ICS RUU for x515a" by Voda-Hutch Australia.
Looking for it
G'day,
I have been looking for it as well. Unfortunately I haven't found one yet.
There is one RUU available for a previous Gingerbread version, however, I am not sure if that will install that and then I could go on for OTA update to ICS. I have yet to test it but I am waiting for my backup phone before I mess with the Evo.
Read this thread for the older RUU http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1208485
Cheers,

[Q] GPS and switching rom question's

Hi everyone,
So I am currently using CM10, but for some reason the GPS and MMS doesn't work. My only concern right now is to get GPS working again. After reading the forums the consensus seems to try to go back to sense and get a lock, then re-install CM10. The problem I seem to run into is that if I try to install another ROM it ends up not booting.
So I came here to ask for help. I think it might have something to do with the Kernel version, but I'm not 100% sure.
Specs:
Android version: 4.1.2
Baseband version: 1.12.11.0809
Kernel version: 3.0.51-geb1844c [email protected] #1
CyanogenMod version: 10
Team Win Recovery Project v2.4.1.0
DirtyRacun
Jewel PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
CID-SPCS_001
HBOOT-1.19.2222
RADIO-1.12.11.0809
OpenDSP-V29.1.0.25.0622
eMMC-boot
After typing the specs I have noticed it doesn't say unlocked. Maybe this is the problem?
Ok so to recap here are my questions:
1. Does the kernel matter when installing ROMs?
2. When moving from Stock to any non-Sense ROM what is the correct way to make sure GPS works?
3. Should I be worried that it doesn't say unlocked in the bootloader? It might be re-locked because I tried a factory reset...
4. When does HBoot and Radio version matter?
5. Broad question: Is this the correct method to try to fix the GPS?
Thanks!

The reason to downgrade is for you to programmed in CDMA platform and is functional in mexico, The version I have successfully programmed is Gingerbread, this version does not allow the programming, (ICS). So what is support degrade or otherwise install a cooked to allow the connection to serial port # # 3424 #.

You can follow the guide here to root and load the older GB OS: LINK
If you just want to get back to GB, you can probably just stop after step 28/29 depending if you want it to be rooted or not after downgrading.

[Q] update to ViperOne 8.0.0 ROM confusion

I have been running an InsertCoin ROM for about a year now, and it is driving me insane. I rooted this phone and put this ROM on as soon as I got it, and now that I come back to XDA for an update, everything is changed and I am a bit confused.
When I go onto Venom ROM website, it says I need to update firmware to HTC 5.0.2. However, I can't tell which firmware I am even on, and I feel like a complete dumb ass. Here is relevant info for my phone, I want to update to a new rom and TMo's latest radio. If someone can real quick throw me some bulletpoints, i'll figure out the rest. THANK YOU!
Android Version 4.4
HTC Sense Version 5.5

for what its worth, i get that red warning on boot splash saying that this build is for development purposes.
I think what I need to do, is first flash the latest stock tmobile rom, and then flash venom rom over it.. does this sound right?
