[Q] Need help unbricking my HTC Flyer 3G - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

Hi All,
My Flyer has been stuck in a boot-loop for a while now.
I feel like I've tried to follow almost every online guide I found without success.
In the past I had the Flyer s-off and unlocked, successfully ran custom ROM's for almost two years.
Now it doesn't boot successfully anymore, just a blank screen and then reboot. I can boot into bootloader and fastboot or into recovery (currently custom CWM based recovery).
I am now S-on again, Hboot 1.11.0011.
I wanted to try revolutionary again, but can't get my hands on a ROM with hboot 1.11.000 or 1.11.0003.
I have tried alsmost every custom rom around and even extracting rom.zip from every RUU I have.
I would appreciate any help or advice, thanks!

fully bricked htc flyer p510e
here is what i did step by step:
bought an htc flyer, then upgraded it officially to honeycomb
i did not like honeycomb so i unlocked bootloader with htc dev method
then flashed recovery and rooted....
changed the misc_version and downgrade back to gingerbread with fastboot flash zip rom.zip
it worked........gta 3 and gta vice city worked.......few months later the gta 3 and vice city started crashing( just like honeycomb)
so i got s-off with revolutionary.....and flashed honeycomb PG41IMG.zip
that worked...........few months later i wanted gta back so i could not take i tried flash back down but did not work...it would get stuck in RUU mode ...so i flashed PG41IMG.zip back and that worked ..i was not bricked...so i tried another method
i flashed fastboot express downgrader.nb0 and
flyer downgrader.nb0
then changed gingerbread rom.zip to PG41IMG.zip and placed it on sd card
went into bootloader and let it flash
the bootloader at this moment:
***security warning***
pvt chip s-on
hboot 1.10.000
..................
it does not show whether the bootloader is locked or unlocked......no recovery.......tablet does not boot.....only to bootloader and fastboot.....
i tried to flash the unlock token for bootloader but get
signature failed error....
i tried to flash the honeycomb PG41IMG.zip but get
checking header failed
remote[signature failed]
cant flash anything because of that ...cant flash recover to even turn off the verification signature check.....
plz help ...whether you help me to fix it back to gb or hc to dont care ..just want it to work
plz help me fast
battery charges but phone goes into fastboot .....
plz help
just ask if u need more information on the situation..

[Q] Hboot 1.490018 not supported?

Hi hope someone can help or point me in the right direction. Ive already unlocked/rooted, haved CWM installed on my phone and S-on. I want to S-off but revolutionary program says my device isn't supported. I have a Evo 3D GSM European Hboot 1.49.0018. How can i get the S-off? I tried to flash infected eternity Rom and bootlooped each time i tried. I wiped dalvik, data, cache etc...i was wondering if S-on has anything to do with me bootlooping? Thanks for your advice.
ROMS that are not using stock kernel (Please correct me if I'm wrong, I only been here on the EVO 3D forums for 2 weeks ), can't be flashed with S-ON.
I believe you can downgrade your hboot and go S-Off. How that exactly works, I have no clue unfortunately.
Okay....i've tried to flash 2 different Roms now and all i get is a boot loop. I just tried to flash shooter beats but with no luck. Can anyone else shed some light on this issue? Does anyone know how to downgrade Hboot to turn S-off? Or point me in the right direction please?
I had that same hboot and was able to downgrade it using Flashmaniac's tool in the Dev section. Just follow his instructions, it worked for me. It does state, however, you must have one of the listed cid numbers (which I had, you'll need to check yours). There's a free app on the market called cid checker, it will find this info for you.
Once you've downgraded your hboot you can follow the normal procedure to s-off with Revolutionary.
Hope this helps
By the way, I've heard you can still flash roms if you're S-on if you extract the boot.img from the zip file of the rom and flash this first through fastboot. I'm not sure exactly what the procedure is but there are threads about it in the Dev section. Please don't try it without reading up first though, as I don't know much about the risks involved, if any.
Mine was 0018, but I downgraded it to 0007 using this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1495657&highlight=vodaphone+hboot
------------------------------------
Please give thanks if i've helped you!
Thanks for your responses friends. I managed to flash a rom with a stock kernel through CWM as was indicated in one of the posts. Thanks for that. I'm going to give the other options to S-off and downgrade a try tonight. I think the Evo is a lot harder to manage than the atrix and razr! I modded them phones no problem! I'll feedback to you tonight and let you know how it went.
Okay...i've downloaded flashmaniac tool for downgrading Hboot. I put my phone in USB debug mode, charge only, extract and run step 1, but nothing happens! I even tried step 2 but nothing! It seems that the program isn't seeing my phone. I don't have HTC sync installed, and i have the HTC drivers. So, i cant figure out whats wrong. I've even allowed install of unknown sources on my phone. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Did you make sure usb debugging was checked in settings??
#Root-Hack_Mod*Always\
hello i had problems with my unlocked, rooted but S ON evo with 0018 Hboot...
if you are S ON and want to flash a rom, here's the way :
1 Be near your PC.
2 extract boot.img from the zip you want to flash
3 flash the rom into recovery
4 DON'T REBOOT !!!
5 Power Off
6 go to fasbtoot USB
7 fastboot flash boot boot.img
8 reboot
9 done, worked for me
Hey,
My 3VO is not possible to S-OFF atm so I'm stuck with S-ON. To install ROMS that require S-OFF its easier to just enter recovery via fastboot. But that requires a computer.
The other solution is HTC Dumlock: http://teamw.in/project/htcdumlock
Using that method you can install roms on your phone without a computer.

Also it is a lot easier to just enter recovery from fastboot and install the ROM normally. Doing all that is just unnecessary to my knowledge.

your right, i remember back in the days, the first flash of my n1...
i applied this method after a normal flash and being stuck on withe htc screen... and someone on another thread told me to flash into recovery then flash the boo.img.
but yes do the whole flashing via fastboot is OK but in some roms like leedroid you cant choose some elements via aroma installer.
I myself can't say if aroma Installer works threw recovery via fastboot because I simply haven't tried it. I personally use HTC Dumlock and used it the other day to install LeeDroid. Aroma installer worked fine, everything worked except for the touch screen interface on the installer, had to use volume buttons, no big deal though.
I also have this Hboot and it can't be temporary rooted.
Is there any way to just root device with this Hboot? I don't want S-off.
Thanx for all your responses. After 8 hours today, i finally managed to s-off my evo. It wasn't easy. I finally changed my Hboot to 1.49.0007, using official firmware with European Hboot (PG86IMG.zip), xvi32.rar hex editor, adb, and fastboot. I had to relock my device through the process, and then use HTCDEV to unlock it once again. Once unlocked, i used revolutionary to gain root, recovery, and to S-off. There were a few tweaks which i had to make to get it to work. If anyone needs help please message me and i'm more than willing to help! I'm currently running Infected Rom Eternity 3.5 Nightly with no problems.

Yes there is, you have to unlock it with the HTC unlock tool (This will wipe your device so backup your phone, it will not wipe your SD card though):
http://htcdev.com/bootloader/
Download this onto your SD card:
http://downloads.androidsu.com/superuser/Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip
Then download this pack of files onto your computer:
http://www.mediafire.com/?49156dz8d36xva3
After you have unlocked your bootloader with the HTC Tool.
Reboot into bootloader > fastboot and plug in a USB
Double click Open cmd in the pack of files you downloaded and type in "fastboot flash recovery recovery-GSM.img" (or recovery-CDMA.img if you have a CDMA phone)
When that is all done, boot into recovery mode and do a full backup. (nice to have a backup of complete unmodified stock ROM).
Last step, while staying in Recovery press install from zip file and find
Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip
When thats all finished just reboot and you should have a rooted stock ROM with S-ON

Thanks for letting us know how you got on, i'm sure it will help someone in the same situation in the future.
I agree, the E3D is a nightmare to mod compared to other Android phones! Glad you got there in the end

[Q] HELP PLEASE GSM USER stuck on HTC screen

so i just got this rezzy. downloaded the n00b proof "HTC Rezound AIO toolkit v2.0..... followed al of teh steps to get teh bootloader unlocked, rooted and tried to install VENASAUR. stuck on the HTC screen when trying to boot. have tried to install MIUI v4 2.6.1 Vigor Port GSM/CDMA as well. am i missing an all important step? i also looked into the kernel stuff too........ i just want to use my phone........
You need to flash a kernel sounds like. Are you s-off?
did you flash the ICS RUU?
*** UNLOCKED ***
VIGOR PVT SHIP S-ON RL

Oct 6,2011,15:43:22
thats what it says, i downloaded the s-off tool after i had this problem. i can get into fastboot and Hasoon's tool v2 works for caommands as far as reboot and what not. the s-off tool wont work because i need it to be able to boot. im thinking if i can just get a RUU and maybe get it to reboot into whatever the first white screen is called with the details from above, then it should flash and boot so i can start over....... the whole process here is similar to the one i used from when i had the HTC Inspire 4G. it was all included in one bundle tho.
and flashing a kernel is a nogo. tried that and its still looping on the HTC screen
also, nope i didnt flash a ruu yet. it was on 2.3.4 before i started.
im looking for a ruu right now

So...
all you have to do is fastboot flash a boot image.
Since you are S-On and trying to flash a rom ment for S-Off, you can run this rom, but you will need to pull the boot img from the rom and fastboot flash boot boot.img the boot.img file.
Plenty of threads on how to do this. Search button is your friend.
Just s-off now so you don't have to worry about fastboot boot.img files ever again
i cant get it to boot period to get the s-off to work....
so, say i have the miui rom and i unzip it, after i do and look into the folder, teh boot.img, its the first one? fo i need to rename it? also, i just put it in the root of the external then reboot bootloader? when i do that it says a bunch of looking for pm98 something or another...... wait a minute, i think i just answered my own question.... brb
s-off only requires the phone to be able to get into fastboot.
if you can get to the bootloader you're good.

Not true it needs root as well
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA
so i downloaded stock rooted 3.13.605.7 and the boot img.
which one do i flash first? flash teh img in bootloader then flash the rom in recovery? or the other way around?
nvm. found it thru google. droid-guru.com had a thing saying img then rom. waiting on this stock rooted deal to finish booting and then ill charge the batteries( got two) and then restart the s-off and whatnot. thanks all
got it all going thanks to a guy named "hyuh" on the IRC freenode support for teh s-off deal... now on to the miui or some other sense 4.0
thank all of you for answering any thing

[Q] Stuck at HBOOT with fastboot only

Hi,
Well, i got myself into this mess and after 3 days of trying to fix it, i give up and call for your assistance.
I had a working S-ON HBOOT 0.47 rooted Legend running CM7.2 and recently changed to Jelly_Bean_Extras_HomICS_2.0_Venus.
I liked the new rom but link2sd didn't work.
My guess was that i need to have it S-OFF.
So... i headed to HTCDEV but first i needed to be on one of the listed RUU.
My original RUU was RUU_Legend_HTC_ISR_2.05.461.52_Radio_47.39.35.09_7.08.35.21_release_140015_signed.zip
I used the LEGEIMG.zip method to flash the RUU and then i flashed the one from HTCDEV which holds "hboot_legend_7227_1.02.0000_111223.nb0" only.
Now the HBOOT got to be 1.02.0000
After flashing this, i got stuck.
No recovery - i get signature failed message - even after putting CWM update.zip on the SD.
No ADB - at all states, only fastboot sees the device.
RUU update gets fails either due to version 3.30.0000, signature or device.
fastboot flash - i thought i will manually flash the various parts. i get FAILED (remote: signature verify fail).
CID was HTC__K18
did a new goldcard based on the old mail i had (from 2010) with the goldcard file (thank you gmail).
but nothing seems to help.
I read a lot of forum posts and tried many things over these 3 days but i'm willing to start over, step by step, with anyone willing to assist.
Hopefully this step by step will assist me and will be a reference guide for others.

Have actually flashed hboot 1.02 yet?
Have followed ALL the instructions at htcdev?
Have you followed all the instructions sent to you via email about how to unlock the locked hboot 1.02, the email also includes a unlock.bin attached to the email which you need in order to unlock your boot loader?
If you had read ANY of the other question thread about this subject (there are a few) you would have found out that after you unlock your boot loader with hboot 1.02 you can no longer use update.zip cwm recovery, you can only use the S-OFF recovery method...
Sent from my Legend using xda app-developers app
I was expecting feeling stupid, missing something simple.
Originally, I couldn't get to step 8 since it requires that the unit didn't respond to fastboot command and while trying to find a fix, i got stuck with only fastboot and didn't remember that this was the step i was stuck in.
Anyway, your response had me go back to htcdev just to prove my point and i found that i can continue.
Finally.
Now i am unlocked and can continue with S-OFF methods.
Thank you.

Guess what, your phone is still locked, you typed it yourself, you still need to unlock it using the bin file sent to you in the email.
Don't feel stupid mate, this rooting thing can be confusing and fearsome at times. Even I had that "can't use update.zip" issue and thought my phone was f'ed till I realised I needed to flash the recovery image.
Sent from my Legend using xda app-developers app
ok.
now everything is ok.
flashed cwm.
got the rom back
and restored almost everything.
thank you
just to point out
Jelly_Bean_Extras_HomICS_2.0_Venus is not ROM
If you flashed a good ROM and your stuck in hboot, use fastboot and use the following command 'fastboot oem boot' that should force your phone to boot.

Hi,
Ive got similar problem. My Hboot is 1.53.0007 with S-ON. few days ago I tried to instal DSP manager for ICS but it didnt work, After flashing DSPmanager.zip the built -in music player did not have equalizer option anymore, so I decided flash stock ICS rom again to get it work properly.
At first I relock bootloader (RELOCK has shown) and then I wanted to flash it as update from main menu.But I couldn't get to boot up no more. I can access to bootloader, can flash recovery, or 4ext recovery, can flash the rom, but cannot downgrade Hboot to i.e. 1.49.018, and any flashed rom doesnt boot up, only shows HTC logo, then for 2 second booting flashed rom screen appears and then reboot- over and over again.
Have I bricked my device? I was looking for any working PG86IMG.zip, but nothing works. After trying to flash PG86IMG.zip it does nothing . I can also unlock device via fastboot, cause generated CODE.bin is always the same, so I neednt to do unlock via HTCDev.com. Also I cant flash this ICS update rom :OTA_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.28.401.1-1.20.401.8_release_2627623qpt0ma8rnwgn0qq.zip

You're device isn't bricked, it's in a bootloop.
If you can get into recovery, try flashing KingCobraICS V1.2. Make sure it's 1.2.
Otherwise, you can try flashing the ROM I posted above, it's a stock rooted GB ROM. Message me if you can't get this fixed.

It should work, and why are you looking for that img file..? I don't understand.

Thanks, thanks and one more thanks. I flashed KingCobraICS V1.2, but only stuck on the splash screen (HTC logo), then, via fastboot I flashed follows:
Kernel:
3.0.16-ge733189: boot.img
and then
Firmware:
11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M: PG86IMG.zip
and device succesfully booted up an android, but I didnt have a SIM card inside, so on the screen was SAFE MOD written, so I turned off EVO and instal SIM card. When I have turned on EVO again it froze on the BEATS AUDIO splash screen. So I again did flash same rom KingCobraICS V1.2 and now everything is working properly.
One more question- what should I do when I want to stock ICS rom? I am really afraid to do anything due to previous complicaions. Can I flash GB stock rom and consequently ICS update.

Why would you want the Stock ICS ROM?
But, if you do want it, you'll need to flash the Stock GB RUU, make sure you have the stock HTC Recovery, and then lock your bootloader.
After that, you should be find to accept the OTA Update.

Did you try flashing the boot.img manually via fastboot?
The reason you at stuck is because of your hboot 1.53.0007 and s-on you must downgrade and s-off then if you want you can re s-on

One of the reason is some not working stuff in Cobra's rom, in rom 1.2 wifi doesnt work and all patches dont work aswell, At rom 1.6 mobile data connection doesnt work. But, I still cant flash GB stock rom. Its cause Im not S-OFF I think. Have no luck to get work other rom except Cobra's. So Im at cobra 1.2 for now and trying to get another working rom to my EVO. Yesterday I tried to flash stock bootloader, no succes, and I cant flash 4ext touch recovery anymore. Only cwm 4.0.x.x I can flash now. i dont know why. I have to keep trying and there must be succes in the end.

after that here how i solved my problem with hboot status step by step:
=> (hboot 1.53.007 unlocked s-on) i found a kernel boot.img competable with hboot 1.53.007 (original one does not work) and flashed both rom and kernel.
=> (hboot 1.53.007 unlocked s-on) as soon as i have a rom working, i did wire trick and s-off'ed my hboot
=> (hboot 1.53.007 unlocked s-off) as i have s-off i updated firmware via hboot. bu before i changed my CID to HTC__001 from HTC__M27.
now i can flash any roms, kernels and firmwares.
thanks everyone for their help

HTC EVO 3D - Long Story - Trying to get back to GB with issues (Details in thread)

Hey all,
I have this HTC EVO 3D that just, refuses to co-operate with me.
Story goes -
Got it on ICS and everything was working fine on it. I looked for updates available and it found a 28MB update that I installed and once the phone rebooted with the update, the camera fails to start and the touch screen just starts going crazy and opening everything, whereas before it fine.
So, I attempted to try and get it back to Gingerbread.
And googled and googled and googled.
Reason why I have opened a new thread is cause it's sort of everything going weird with it.
Of course, trying RUU files and trying to flash RUU in zip failed so on so forth.
I had unlocked the Bootloader and S-ON is on at this point. Also had CWM recovery installed and was able to boot into that.
With this in place, I read up on the wire trick and thought, yeah it seems a bit hard, I'll take it to a phone repair shop, where they had the phone for 2 weeks and told me that it was S-OFF and back to stock.
Since they had it and I got it back, it's now stuck in a boot loop and I can not get into any recovery etc (With the original SD Card in it). Can get to Bootloader and fastboot though.
Spent the last 3 hours with about 20 tabs in Chrome opened on how to exactly go from here and I am stuck.
Got a Linux Laptop here and tried to ControlBear and it comes up with ADB and Fastboot not found (Directory points to it being in tmp..no idea)
TL;DR
HTC Evo 3D (Australian Variant, was running ICS Telstra OEM)
Unlocked Bootloader
SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.53.0007
eMMC-boot
Radio - 11.25.3504.16 M
Boot Loops, No Recovery, Fastboot commands work on windows.
So just wondering, where do I go from here. I don't know if the device is completely bricked now or if it can be saved.
(I tried a number of zip files on the SD Card (PG86IMG.zip) and nothing due to having S-ON.
Hoping someone can provide a procedure or point me in the right direction.
As reference, I used this thread mostly before it was taken to the Repair Shop and got stuffed.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks so much.

Hello my friend, the reason you can't load the pg86img is because you have unlocked bootloader. The fastboot commands could help us a lot, did you follow the controlbear instructions in the correct order? I think there is a way through windows with exe files I don't remember well because I did S-OFF 3years+ before. If you want we can try together some time. If you want for start we can flash 4ext recovery and a custom rom so your phone can boot.

Hi there, I didn't know with having the bootloader unlocked that it would cause any issues, but there you go!
Yeah, if there's a guide to flashing the 4EXT Recovery and a custom rom that would be great!
I have a fair idea of how to do it, but don't want to try anything without having someone of greater knowledge point me in the right direction
Thanks!
Just an update, I did come across a thread to flash 4EXT Recovery onto my Evo 3D.
Put Recovery.img into my platform-tools folder, used the fastboot command, it said sending and OK.
Selected recovery and still boot loops. No idea where to go from here now

Sorry for being late, I had some problems with my internet connection. Can you boot into recovery? Power button + Vol- and choose recovery, if you can boot tell me first which version you have and second what type of rom you want to have.

Hey there,
That's OK, I don't mind the wait, it's all good!
I can boot into Fastboot, but when I choose recovery/factory reset etc, it shows the HTC Logo and then goes into a bootloop.
As for the ROM, I want to get the original GB ROM for it because when I updated it to the latest ICS that's when the camera and touch started to get weird, whereas beforehand it was fine.
So thinking, if I go back down to GB Stock, that it should be all fine again, but I am not too sure on that one.
Thanks!

Well, we have to downgrade the hboot version first. Did you do the wire trick procedure right? You can download a pg86img and flash it first to fix the bootloops. First lock the bootloader. When you finish this report here. I have to sleep it's late here and I work early. I'll send you tomorrow. See you.

Ok, the technician I took the phone to supposedly did the wire trick for S-OFF, but, it's still S-ON.
I have downloaded a lot of stock PG86IMG files before posting on here and none work, they scan when in bootloader and then nothing after that.
But that would be because I haven't locked the bootloader. So in saying this, I lock the bootloader following steps on many forum posts on here, then flash a .zip file that's correct and then it should all work?
I'll wait for your response, thanks!

I do not think that the wire trick procedure was correct because you are still s on. Lock the bootloader and try to load the zip.

Hey, so I tried a P86IMG.zip from this thread here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2274635
I couldn't find another one and with that I get an error "Main Version Fail" or "Main Version Check Fail".
I then tried RUU and RUU in zip format.
RUU comes back with wrong bootloader error. (I couldn't find an RUU that matched my radio version so I went with the nearest one)
RUU Zip comes back through fastboot with "remote 43 main version check fail"
Also I tried to do the Wire Trick and got stuck at the "ADB and Fastboot not found" even though the files are there and the phone is connected.
So still a little bit...stuck :\
Also relocked bootloader it just says relocked now.
If you need any other additional info I can send screenshots of what it's at.
Thanks!

So update -
DK sent me the windows version of ControlBear via PM - thank you.
Have an unlocked bootloader.
I tried ControlBear, and because I can not boot into the OS, I start it at Fastboot USB, it reboots, then says "Connecting to Device", then "Testing ADB connection" then "Press Enter To Exit" and that's it, can't do anything else from there, and it gets stuck in the boot loop that it still has.
Tried again to google for methods for HBOOT 1.53, and am trying some of those methods, but it's not looking good at all.
I haven't even got to the stage where it asks me to do any sort of wire trick.
Also my battery in the EVO 3D has died so am using a battery out of a HTC MyTouch 4G with help from electrical tape :\
So now, any suggestions? I am trying to flash another RUU that's stock for my Radio (Well, it's close enough - RUUs are both 11.25.3504.06, mine is 11.25.3504.16)
EDIT: Tried all RUUs with relocked bootloader and comes back with bootloader error (ERROR 140). So, no idea.
Also it's scanning for PG86DIAG.img files on the SD Card - that's not normal is it.
Do you think we should give up on it, it's probably hard bricked and dead now
I think it's literally hard bricked and no way to bring it back from the dead.
As per my original post, all the details for the phone are there. And it sucks that I can't find a correct RUU for my phone (As it was Telstra AU - latest update of ICS)
AHH I don't know.

First of all you should be unlocked now with 1.53 hboot. Download from here the latest 4ext recovery (4EXT_Recovery_Touch_v1.0.0.6_RC3)
It's in my mega account don't worry about malicious software I downloaded it 5 minutes before doing this post. If you don't have unlocked your bootloader do it with the tokens HTC sent you in your email. Flash this recovery from fastboot (fastboot flash recovery "recoveryname".img). After that remove the battery and re-enter fastboot mode (Vol down+power button) and choose recovery. If you manage to boot into recovery from there tell me to send you a link for a rom to flash. I don't believe its a hard brick.

Hey there, thanks for the help again, unfortunately, still didn't work.
I unlocked the bootloader again. Then tried to flash what you said, it said "writing" then "successful". I pulled the battery and tried to boot into recovery and just loops

Try doing:
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery "recovery".img
fastboot format system
fastboot format boot
And if it still doesn't let me send you a boot.img in some minutes to try flashing it.
EDIT: And something last, you can still do the controlbear trick while not in OS, its easy if you wanna try let me know.

Got it on ICS and everything was working fine on it. I looked for updates available and it found a 28MB update that I installed and once the phone rebooted with the update, the camera fails to start and the touch screen just starts going crazy and opening everything, whereas before it fine.
So, I attempted to try and get it back to Gingerbread.
And googled and googled and googled.
Reason why I have opened a new thread is cause it's sort of everything going weird with it.
Of course, trying RUU files and trying to flash RUU in zip failed so on so forth.
I had unlocked the Bootloader and S-ON is on at this point. Also had CWM recovery installed and was able to boot into that.
With this in place, I read up on the wire trick and thought, yeah it seems a bit hard, I'll take it to a phone repair shop, where they had the phone for 2 weeks and told me that it was S-OFF and back to stock.
Since they had it and I got it back, it's now stuck in a boot loop and I can not get into any recovery etc (With the original SD Card in it). Can get to Bootloader and fastboot though.
Spent the last 3 hours with about 20 tabs in Chrome opened on how to exactly go from here and I am stuck.
Got a Linux Laptop here and tried to ControlBear and it comes up with ADB and Fastboot not found (Directory points to it being in tmp..no idea)
TL;DR
HTC Evo 3D (Australian Variant, was running ICS Telstra OEM)
Unlocked Bootloader
SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.53.0007
eMMC-boot
Radio - 11.25.3504.16 M
Boot Loops, No Recovery, Fastboot commands work on windows.
So just wondering, where do I go from here. I don't know if the device is completely bricked now or if it can be saved.
(I tried a number of zip files on the SD Card (PG86IMG.zip) and nothing due to having S-ON.
Hoping someone can provide a procedure or point me in the right direction.
As reference, I used this thread mostly before it was taken to the Repair Shop and got stuffed.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks so much.

First of all you should be unlocked now with 1.53 hboot. Download from here the latest 4ext recovery (4EXT_Recovery_Touch_v1.0.0.6_RC3)
It's in my mega account don't worry about malicious software I downloaded it 5 minutes before doing this post. If you don't have unlocked your bootloader do it with the tokens HTC sent you in your email. Flash this recovery from fastboot (fastboot flash recovery "recoveryname".img). After that remove the battery and re-enter fastboot mode (Vol down+power button) and choose recovery. If you manage to boot into recovery from there tell me to send you a link for a rom to flash. I don't believe its a hard brick.
