Okay I want to start by saying thank you for your reply. The first part worked and I am relocked. The second part ended up in The error 158 so I went to flash the new hboot and it wouldn't work. It says (error: cannot load 'PM83IMG.zip' :unknown error)
Any ideas?

Download 1.15 stock hboot. Rename to PL83IMG.zip. when u renamed it make sure is not zip.zip cause this file is already zip so u try only to rename it to PL83IMG (right click the file in your pc and check properties to make sure windows got it already as a zip extension) and place in the folder that contains ( in ur pc) your android-adb folder*
there is where any zip should go, with the exception of user preferences location. (or different folder named by the user)
Step 1) adb reboot bootloader
Step 2) fastboot oem rebootRUU
Step 3) Command to directory containing your renamed hboot zip (i.e. C:\android-adb\)
Step 4) fastboot flash zip PL83IMG.zip
*** When it says it is done in the terminal/cmdprompt execute step 5 )
[The green bar only fills up about 75% of the way]
Step 5) fastboot reboot-bootloader
Profit. Put the RUU Folder in same directory. right click and run it as administrator

am Sure you know this , but sometimes we overseeing a simple step. The basic make sure usb debugging is check, fastboot uncheck, try change to different usb port 2, cause usb3 doesn't work as well are you using Windows 8? try windows 7 pc because w8 have some security issues to need to work around. Dont forget first to try to Update Android SDK manager.
Try to change the location of your android-adb (look inside of adt-bundle-windows) and move android-adb folder to C:\android-adb
because we don't use any other file but android-adb, so is more easy to command to this directory, and is in this directory
where we put the RUU and the hboot 1.15 renamed as PL83IMG.zip. then run the commands explained by torrented dev*
Step 1) adb reboot bootloader
Step 2) fastboot oem rebootRUU
Step 3) CD to directory containing hboot zip (i.e. cd C:\android-adb\)
Step 4) fastboot flash zip PL83IMG.zip
*** When it says it is done in the terminal/cmdprompt execute the following ***

Help please
I've been able to return the hboot to 1.15 but the RUU.exe wont work. I get error 170. I use a stock htc cable. My hboot says its locked but i can still boot into my rom only when I have the ENG hboot but the RUU wont work unless im at 1.15. When i try to lock my hboot again it says its already locked but i still have root, rom and recovery access. I would love a definitive answer that will fix this phone before i smash it.
Thanks!:fingers-crossed:

Not a problem. Glad you got it working, Should also mention that I was trying Carbon also, and even after I restored and rerooted I still never got it working on mine. Ended up being able to just flash another rom without having to RUU the second time.

RUU will return you to stock. It's an exe file you run on your pc. Here's a lengthy post I made for someone else earlier today with instuctions:
p.s. I looked up that ICS Rom and it says "Updated: Mainver to 2.01.605.11" so you should run the RUU with that mainver number in the file name.
feralicious said:
Everything you need can be found in these Rezound forums.
So you can get into fastboot. That's good.
Do you still have your computer set up from when you unlocked the phone? If not, download the mini sdk that MrSmith317 made that I've attached and place that in the C: directory of your computer and name it something easy, mine is named android-flasher. Then just always keep it there as you will need to use it often when modding your phone.
1) get the sdk working on your computer
2) On your phone, do a battery pull, then boot it into fastboot and then connect it to your computer.
3) Type the following at your computer's cmd prompt:
fastboot getvar all
and find out what mainver you are on.
* If you are on a mainver that starts with 3.x then you cannot run the RUUs. I will try to find out what you should do in that case. If your mainver starts with 1.x or 2.x then continue onto step 4.
4) Relock your phone by typing the following:
fastboot oem lock
5) Download the RUU for your mainver to your computer. Use the file from here that corresponds to your mainver:
http://www.filefactory.com/f/c2e320ee1d5c7886/
This is an exe file so just run it on your pc with your phone attached. I know you need to be locked, I think you need HTC Sync installed, so if it's not working search for those answers, it will work, others have done it. Now you are back to stock.
5) Unlock your phone again using the same unlock bin file you got before by putting it in the same folder you are now using for sdk. Type the following command:
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
If you don't have it obtain a new one by following the same steps you did before to get it originally. Here is a guide for that:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20780879&postcount=1
Now you should be stock and unlocked.
6) Flash Amon Ra in fastboot. Get the lateset version, 3.13. here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?chpoxzb8bl4nn2b
Type the following command to flash it:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-ra-vigor-3.13-gnm.img
Now you should have Amon Ra on your phone.
7) Root your phone by installing su using Amon Ra. Go to the developer menu and find the option in there.
Now you should be stock, unlocked and rooted.
8) MAKE A NANDROID BACK UP NOW AND LABEL IT.
9) Flash a new ROM.
*** If your mainver is 3.x try this thread to see if you can come up with a method to go back to stock. I haven't looked into this since I have not ventured into ICS land as of yet.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459347
There are also some threads about getting back to stock from ICS I think so here are my search results for "stock ics" in the thread title and you can probably find an answer in there somewhere.
Hope this helps you get back up and running.

Ok so i just bought a evo 3d off Craigslist and it was flashed to cricket and had revolutionary recovery with a custom rom installed and hboot says unlocked and im running hboot 1.5 and s-on... i messed up and flashed a stock rom and didnt bacup the previous rom so now im without a rom and cant get any to bootup they flash and then start bootlooping and ive tried multiple ruus and none give me the option to update... please help
If you are having issues with your current ROM. You could always run the ROM Upgrade Utility (RUU) found in the link below.
http://bit.ly/u3pMEN
Make sure to download the correct file.
(RUU_Shooter_S_Sprint_WWE_2.17.651.5_Radio_1.06.00 .1216)
After it has finished downloading. Re-lock your phone.
Then run the RUU.exe
This will take you back to the Stock HTC 2.17.651.5 ROM.
DO NOT DISCONNECT YOUR DEVICE DURING THE PROCESS. IT COULD BRICK YOUR DEVICE.
Remember this will delete all your current data/apps so use TWRP on the android market to back up all your downloaded content. Only if your going to unlock you device again because you need to root your phone to use TWRP.
do i have to have android sdk installed?
You should.
I would recommend downloading the rootevo3dnew.zip file and place it on C:\ Drive.
(You can download the file from here)
http://bit.ly/HCPFRW
Dont forget to enter Fastboot USB first.
Now type these commands on cmd.
cd c:\rootevo3dnew
then type.
fastboot oem lock
Your device should reboot.
Dont let it reboot
Wait about 10 seconds than take off the battery.
Enter hboot once again by pressing Vol down then power button.
Go into Fastboot USB and then run the RUU.
ive tried that it never reconizes the rootevo3dnew.. thats why i was wondering if i needed androidsdk installed
1.Did you unzip the file?
2.Is the rootevo3dnew folder placed in C:\?
does the hole folder need to be in c? cuz ive tried it in the zip file and unzipped to c drive and both no go

Yes. put the rootevo3d.zip file in C:\ then unzip it.
Once thats done try the commands i gave you.
Post back with your error(if you end up getting one)
it worked that time but just says waiting on device
Is your device in Fastboot USB?
yea its red and says fastboot usb
Try this. Reboot your phone and turn debugging on.
Take out the battery and go back to Fastboot USB
Also run the HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe file in the rootevo3dnew folder if you have windows.

This will return/update your device's software to 2.17.651.5 Stock (Relocked/Unrooted)
I'm making this guide for people who want to Unroot/Relock, having problems with their phones or return to Sprint's Stock.
"If you updated from 2.08 to 2.17 and are having issues unlocking. I recommend doing the steps below and try to unlock your device again The RUU also fixes a glitch on some phone who aren't getting the Bootloader Unlock screen."
>>>Know this will also update your hboot to 1.50.0000<<<
Works with CDMA S-ON and S-OFF Evo 3D.
For Mac users, replace “fastboot” with “./fastboot-mac” in the instructions below.
For Linux users, replace “fastboot” with “./fastboot-linux” in the instructions below.

Quicker way to open a CMD to ADB is go to your platform tools folder and hold shift down right click on it.. Say open CMD .. Your set..
Another way ...
Turn debug on ^^)
1. ADB reboot bootloader
2. Fastboot boot recovery.img for Hboot 1.5 users
3. Wipe like normal.
4. Go back to Hboot. Select fastboot
5. Now type in ^ Fastboot oem lock^
6. Now run that 2.17 RUU. DO NOT TAKE USB CORD OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS WILL BRICK
7. Your set
If you wanna unroot again pretty simple..
Just redo that unlock code part your set.
Anyways if anyone needs help PM me or the OP.. I have done this 100 times or more lol well it feels like it..
yes, i'm a n00b
Just a silly question, the unroot/relock option... that should work for all EVO3D models?
Looking to return to stock (but with another RUU of course), can I follow these steps? (I'm HTCDEV unlocked)

In order to downgrade you need to S-OFF, then flash one of the old RUU's.
Did you factory reset after installing the ICS?
I would also try installing the new 4.3.605.2 RUU from Android Police... factory default, flash twice (if you flash an RUU, ALWAYS do it twice), then factory default again.

if you are 100% sure you want to go back to GB then you would need s-off
you need s-off to go back to gingerbread. try flashing the new 4.3.605.2

It is completely stable, and fixes way more issues than the changelog mentions...
http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/
And select AP Mirror #1 which is hosted on beta.androidfilehost.com, a very reliable and (usually) speedy server, it takes about 3 minutes for me to download it ( I have done it lots of times, people keep saying doesn't work), just click the link, then the green circle with a down arrow to download it (to the left of the filename), MD5 matches every time. If that one give you trouble, go to the same link and on the right hand side there are mirrors of that server, they work equally well.
And like every ROM, VERIFY the MD5 before flashing... if it don't match, don't flash!
It looks like your RUU didn't install completely. Flash it *several* times, until you get the screen where all items are listen as "OK" and it says to reboot.
If that still doesn't work, try flashing it through fastboot:
install HTC Sync (this will install drivers for adb and bootloader debug). Somehow obtain fastboot.exe (pretty sure it comes with HTC Sync. If not, download the Rezound All In One Toolkit. Open a command prompt and change the directory to the same one that fastboot.exe is in (use the command "cd" then the full folder location, ex "cd c:\users\yourname\desktop\fastboot folder").
Next, you'll want to take out your phone's SD card. Power on the phone, holding power and volume down to boot into the bootloader. Then, choose fastboot. Connect your phone to your PC at this time. Now use the command "fastboot oem rebootRUU". Your phone will reboot to a black screen with a silver HTC logo. Next, drag the RUU file you downloaded (doesn't matter what it's named) to the same folder as fastboot.exe. Use the command "fastboot flash zip <ruu name>", replacing "<ruu name>" with the name of the file, obviously. Once the command prompt says it's done, you can safely turn off your phone, or do a battery pull if necessary.
I highly recommend you do not revert to Gingerbread, because it requires a firmware downgrade and the S-Off procedure is necessary. Things can go horribly wrong with S-off especially if you don't know what you're doing.

So this will work with out S-off? I am on Venom Rom on ICS. Great Rom but when I plug my headphones in the phone reboots. I want to get back to Stock ICS.
Thanks

Without S-OFF you can only go same version or newer, not backwards, but you will have to relock your bootloader... You should then be able to flash the 4.3.605.2 RUU with no problem.

For the global RUU - http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/
Feel free to open a new thread vs using an 8 month old one that isn't related to your problem if you can't find what you're looking for also.

Also, make sure you allow it to fully do its thing, don't pull battery or anything in the middle of it. The screen will go black for a second or two, just wait it out. It will leave you in bootloader when it's done iirc.
Pardon for the rather noobish question, I am s-off, usb debugging disabled, and the latest firmware, 2.10 but i would like to flash the custom firewater hboot
but I keep getting via terminal: error: cannot load 'hboot_firewater_jewel_4.13.651.3.zip': Unknown error
i followed all the steps then this..
Any advice... I would like to learn thank you..

Take out the file inside the zip. Place it on the root of the SD card and so the command again. But then again I don't think you can change the HBoot via terminal when the ROM is booted. Unless you're doing it from Linux terminal on PC?[emoji782]

Put the hboot.zip in the folder you are using to open your cmd window then type(while booted to fastbootusb)...pressing enter after each command
Code:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip hboot_firewater_jewel_4.13.651.3.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
I believe you can also rename the file PJ75IMG.zip and apply it the same way you would a firmware update.
