Just so you know you posted this in the wrong section.
But to help you..
1.Restore to a previous Rom (Hope you did a backup before flashing anything else?)
2.Install Flash Image GUI
3. Flash Boot.
4. Go into Recovery
5. Flash Rom
6. Reboot and you should be good.
Note- Never forget to Wipe

Flash this RUU for the EVO 3D GSM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1208485
Just choose the RUU that fits your devices (DONT Flash the Sprint ones its for CDMA HTC EVO 3D)
Flash the EU ones , this will get you back to Gingerbread (2.3.3) and from there you can update your phone OTA for ICS. Before flashing ICS Roms, YOU NEED S-OFF ! , S-ON only unlocks the bootloader not the boot partition ! .

So your problem is solved?
and, you tried Installing KingCobra 1.6.
To install 1.6 you HAVE to be S-OFF in order to flash the new firmware.
However, if you want to use KingCobra, download version 1.5, it will work perfectly on an S-ON device!
Hope this helps!

Exactly the same for me. I did this many times before -- This time it bootloops -- seems like something goes wrong with the /boot partition. Could be an error in writing the boot cause even that I have S-OFF i use the smartflash method which worked perfectly for me till now... I think it has something to do with the recovery. Maybe you try the latest TWR - as long as you have s-off you can flash any recovery over fastboot. Hope you get it back rollin' cause I have no USB-Cable though
So I got it --- The issue that's causing this error was 4ext like expected. Just flash CWM recovery(not touch!) (mind the button mapping -- Powerbutton = back, camerabutton = accept) then make a factory reset, flash your rom and then it should(!) work Tell me if that worked for you!
so i went to switch out my battery and when i turned the phone back on it vibrated and displayed the white htc screen, then went black for a second and then stays on the white htc screen forever! Im a total noob when it comes to all the technical stuff about RUU's Kernels Roms and whatnot. I can get to bootloader, but i tried to do factory reset and it showed a green circle with a loading bar but then it changed into a red triangle with an exclamation. I tried flashing amon ra recovery but it doesnt work, although TWRP works. While in TWRP though, whenever i try to flash a zip file, it fails and says something like E:failed to mount /cache E:failed to mount /system E:failed to mount /data. Please help me i need this phone working to help me at my job. If someone can walk me through what i need to do i would REALLLYYYY appreciate it. Like i said though, i am a noob so i need realy stupified instructions lol. Thanks

First you should go to shipped-roms.com and download the vigor ics ruu.exe, the rezound downloads there are under vigor . Plug your phone into your computer and from hboot highlight fastboot press power and run the .exe file from your computer and follow the on screen instructions, this will return your phone to full stock ics. Make sure you download the vigor ics ruu.exe as the GB ruu will not work with s-on.
You can also download this: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/ it's the latest ruu it'll update your hboot, stock recovery, rom, and radios, to latest stock. Just download, rename the zip file to PH98IMG (don't include .zip it is a zip file it'll add it on its own in hboot) put it on your sd card, not in a folder just on. Put it back in your phone and boot to bootloader and runn the update, when it powers off. Run it again. (As it has to update the hboot to 2.27 first)Then you'll be on the stock latest. Then root and Rom from there. Of you need help pm me for my gtalk and I could walk you thru it..

Same exact problem. Installing zip now, god i hope this works!!
So my screen is the exact same, i tried to flash a kernal for not only wrong phone but wrong carrier too. Anyways no OS, when i try to flash either of the ways you have explained they both dont work. When i put it on the sd card as PH98IMG it looks like it loads it in the upper right then thats it. regular bootload screen after that nothing happens. try to load it by opening the application after im plugged in as fasboot usb and the program says Install script setup launcher has stopped working. I have been able to flash liquids rom and looks as if it is booting but waited 24 min and nothing happpend just stayed on boot screen. So im just trying to get back to RUU then work from there.

You need to extract the boot.IMG from liquid Rom and rename it ph98img and put that on your sd card or in the folder with adb and fastboot flash it using fastboot flash boot boot.img

Yes i did reinstall my HTC Sync drivers, I have been wipining factory reset, cache, system, dalvick cache before i flash a new rom. I am S-On. Havent really determined a reason to go s-off yet, i am messing up my phone good enough with this let alone a paperclip. no problem with random reboots. I finally decided to go to a custom rom bc i was sick of my phone rebooting for OTA updates then being late for work. So the 3 roms i have now tried are Liquid smooth which i liked but i couldnt get mms messages to show up on phone. Also it wouldnt change from silent to a beep for text message notifications. i could select it but it would stay as silent. So.... I flashed ViperRezROm which i just didnt like the look and theme. So i finally flashed Cyanogen ROM and come to find out its the same kernal as Liquid smooth so it looks the same and I like that but I still cant change the notification from silent to a beep for text messages. So i never know when i get a text.
Still working on trying to flash a newer version of TWRP.
Then this time flashing I tried to titanium backup and went to load my backup and it cant find it.... WTF
UGH... Learning so much with this stuff. just taking alot of patience.
Thanks again for yalls support, I love this forum.
Mike
BTW just to note...if your bootloader is locked fastboot flash methods will not work 90 percent of the time...if you flashed liquid 3.0 that's more than likely your problem with mms as that is a beta...but on more recent 4.3 builds mms is fixed...and no its not the same kernel...just similar source code...liquid 2.9 does not have this mms issue...any random reboots on 4.2 are caused by min frequency not set right at 384 mhz and using amon ra to flash or not doing a proper clean flash....I do recommend s-off as it will make life much easier for you for modding things or flashing custom zips and for future flashing back to full stock if needed as its not possible while s-on...you can always pm me for help as I've yet to run into an error I can't fix unless posted in op caused by source

There is a few good reasons to S-Off.
1.No need to fastboot flash kernels
2.can RUU if needed
3.can flash recovery updates (cwm, twrp) as ph98img zips
4. Can keep bootloader ***locked***
5. No more ***tampered*** tag after you RUU
Scenario: you are out and about (or a computer isn't handy) somehow you are in an infinite bootloop. You nandroid restore. But it is something on boot partition. Only way to fix this while S-On is fastboot flashing a boot.img, but if you were S-Off, you would have restored the boot image from the nandroid.
Edit: added 5th reason

I finally went S-OFF to help another user get step by step to restore to fully locked and stock ruu. I decided to leave it S-OFF. It's so nice to be able to just load a rom and not have to do anything else (other than wiping). It makes changing/upgrading rom's a breeze.
I highly recommend it. It seems scary, but once you have done it once, you will not go back.
But be warned, never go back to S-ON on a non-HTC hboot... you will hard brick your device. That is the only real threat I've heard about... if you never go back to S-ON, then you have absolutely nothing to worry about. Just about any error can be fixed except for going s-on on a non-ruu hboot.
Thanks

you were dead on accurate regarding my problem. Your post helped me revive an all but dead rezound!! Thanks man!!
I've found myself in a bootloop, and would like some informed help before I potentially dig my hole deeper. I'm pretty n00b, knowing just enough to get by.
Phone History:
I was originally OTA 1.50, and when the ability to flash back to 1.40 came out, I made that modification, giving me S-OFF, clockwork, etc. I was still locked and never unlocked. I think I ran MEAN ROM for some time then. About 6 months ago, I flashed MIUI ROM which ran fine.
I recently flashed to the latest MIUI (3.1.19, 3.2.1, 3.2.8) but they all seemed to have issues with powering off sometimes, weird Wifi issues. I knew something was not right. Figuring maybe the ROM just was not right for my build, I tried CyanogenMOD 10, and had similar issues. It seemed to flash fine (via clockwork) and would boot, but had weird issues (wifi, messaging, some display weirdness)
I did some reading and convinced myself maybe I needed new firmware on the phone to be able to run these ROMs successfully.
I followed the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1808150
to get new firmware (and Superwipe) and then reflashed to CyanogenMOD 10. This had me in a bootloop. I also tried reinstalling MIUI 3.2.8 and get a bootloop with it as well.
Currently I am:

What is the best way to get out of this bootloop? I am hoping it's a relatively easy fix, being S-OFF, but will do what is needed.
Thanks!
Also...
I should add, that when I attempt to do a "wipe data/factory reset" in clockwork, it gets the following error:
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk1p2"
Everything else wipes fine.
Also, I am in fastboot, :-/
You're saying your a noob. so the safe way to go is download the RUU Here. Go through the update process and then you can flash a custom recovery. ditch clockwork and go with 4EXT Recovery.

Sure does help. Plus it will save you some time.
Heres a quick guide by ramjet73 that will help you . [Guide] Quick And Dirty RUU Flashing for CDMA S-OFF Users
Spot on Astrikz. Ramjet73's post was quite helpful.
After running through all the steps, I was able to get booted into a stock 2.89 ROM, update 4ext, busybox, etc.
I then tried to flash back onto CM10, first creating a backup in 4ext of my functioning stock ROM. I was on HBOOT JBear 1.58.58.58 at the time, but realized that CM10 did not function with that HBOOT. Attempting to boot into it caused the previously seen loop... boots, spins the CM10 logo for a few seconds, and then reboot. I downgraded the flash to JBear 1.50.50.50 to see if that would fix the issue.After the HBOOT downgrade, I wiped everything (but SD) and reinstalled CM10. Booting still yielded the same bootloop issue I had previously. I also tried booting into MIUI 3.2.8, and got the same issue. They start to boot, Show a bit of their splash screen, and then lock and reload. I was able to boot meanROM2.17.651.5, although it seems a bunch of things in it were broken.
So... I'm still battling, but making some progress. Any ideas on what might be the cause of the bootloops? II even tried booting with no SD card in, just in case something on my card was causing the issue. But, I got the same bootloop when booting with no SD card.
Tried out Venom 1.6.3 and was able to get that one to work. Still not sure why I had the bootloop issues.
bootloops
My problem is similar.
I've got
S-On Hboot 1.53
Previously got
4ext recovery
CoolICS Rom
.. and when I going to recovery my bootloops started
Normal boot or trying to recovery boot giving the same results.
I can: go to fastboot, changing cid, lock/unlock bootloader, flash boot/recovery/system from fastboot.
Even flashung RUU it's complete but when phone restarts, still got bootloops
My EVO is GSM and it need help.
I can buy a beer if someone can help
---------- Post added at 05:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:55 PM ----------
Got some progress:
After flashing Ruu, i've flashed a boot.img form CM-9-20130210-NIGHTLY-shooteru.
Got HTC screen(first screen), and starting second screen(HTC quietly brilliant).
But got bootloops at half of drawing this animation.
Is the unbricking method got sense? Maybe I'll try this way
Hi,
I have a Sprint CDMA HTC EVO 3D. I tried root and get S-OFF for it. Unfortunately I failed and now the phone fail to boot.
Below is what I did from which you might be able to diagnose it and give me suggestions.
(1) The original status of mu phone is:
Stock rom, I never root it before.
HBOOT-1.58.0000
Android Version: 4.03
HTC Sense version: 3.6
Software version: 2.95.651.6.710RD
(2) My root procedures:
I followed this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1813818
I successfully unlocked phone with HTCDev, successfully Flashed 4EXT recovery, and successfully installed Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip. I also booted into sytem, everything worked well.
However I failed in next step of JuopunutBear's Wire Trick (S-OFF). When I ran ControlBear.exe, it finally hanged there.
Current status of my phone:
Unfortunately I did not make a backup to my original ROM, so there is no way to revert back by restoring backup.
Now the phone is in unlocked status, I was able to boot to HBOOT and also enter 4Ext recovery, however I am not able to boot into Android. If I try to boot into Android, it always hang at black screen.
I am able to boot to fastboot (USB) mode, I tried to flash some stock ROM (listed at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24268786&postcount=209), but I failed. For example, I ran a RUU of 2.89.exe, it detected my phone version is 2.95, and further update RUU failed.
Looks like my partition is ruined, but I might be wrong.
ANyone can help me to restore my phone to working status? At least I need the phone to be able to boo to Android.
Here are also some tries that I ever did:
(1) I ever put the PG86IMG.zip file (downloaded from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21593454&postcount=564) to my sdcard, still failed.
(2) I ever formatted all partition from 4EXT recovery

EDIT:
Okay. I've got some questions.
1. You're stuck on some black screen as you said. It boots past the white HTC splash and then it's stuck on that black screen, right. Do you mean the juopunutbear "arrow screen" - juopunutbears boot.img?
2. I think if you had flashed the original boot img everything would have been fine.
3. The easiest way is to flash to stock, so lets try to figure out why it doesn't flash.

Yes, after I was stuck with black juopunutbear screen, I took battery out, reboot again, never was able to root to Android. I am only able to boot to HBoot.

And you can boot to recovery, right?
EDIT:
One more thing. Which ruu were you trying to run
Edit2:
What's your CID? Use "fastboot getvar cid" or "fastboot oem readcid" (without quotes).
Edit3:
BTW, this was on the wire trick page... http://unlimited.io/jbtroubleshooting.htm - TROUBLESHOOTING There was everything you needed to know when you failed at something. Remember that page. You may need it the next time you try to do the wiretrick.
Q: Were you using a linux distro for the wire trick and did you use the appropriate files for wire trick since GB and ICS have separate tools?
If you want I may assist you in gaining s-off if we get this thing functional again.
Yes, I am able to boot to recovery.

Aw man, I'm completely sorry I didn't see this: Software version: 2.95.651.6.710RD
That means, no RUU for you cause htc/sprint wasn't kind enough to provide the ruu. Also FYI you can't flash a ruu lower than your current one.
So your best bet is to flash the most stock 2.95 cdma rom you could find and right after, flash the stock cdma evo 3d kernel through fastboot or 4ext (I think 4ext smartflash does the same thing). Try to find something that's COMPLETELY STOCK - with no mods whatsoever or if you couldn't find any, try something that's almost* stock. That should get you booting and you can try s off again.
Edit: This shall work. http://www.negalite.com/index.php?topic=21.0 Try it and report back!!!
Now I only want to revert my phone to stock, not considering root at present time.
I searched 2.95 ROM, unfortunately the highest version that I can find is 2.89. Does this mean I have no way to revert my phone to live? Thanks a lot.

I ever run a RUU 1.13...exe for mmy phone, it said my device is having 1.000, and it tried to update to 1.13. However, the update procedure always failed at some point, some at beginning, some failed at 'wring signature'...

Flash like a normal rom and don't forget to flash the boot img because that's what's really causing you problems right now. I'd choose the deodexed one from there.
My HBoot screen shows below:
SHOOTER XC SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.58.000
RADIO-1.09.00.0108
OpenADSP-v02.6.0.2226.00.0217
DO you think I still have chance to save my device? Thanks a lot.

If you have access to the recovery, most likely, yes.
Hello MrJyrks,
Thank you so much for the link! I am eager to try that. Before I do that I think I shall ask two questions to avoid further mess up the device:
Question #1: To install the deodexed rom, which is the correct way:
(1) Rename the ZIP file to PG86IMG.ZIP, put to root of sdcard, then boot, letting the Bootloader to do the update.
(2) In 4EXT recovery, enable smartflash, enable script asserts, then install the zip from the root of sdcard.
Question #2: You said I shall flash boot image, can you tell me how to do this? I mean, where shall I get the boot image file? Flash it with 4EXT? SHall I do it before or after install ROM zip file?
Thank you very much for your helps!!!

I tried install the stock ROM from your link (using 4EXT with smartflash enabled and script asserts enabled.) . Amazing that installation completed successfully (indeed this is the first ROM zip that I was able to install successfully since I mess up the device). When I exit After that, it did some further update which I guess is the boot.img that you mentioned.
4EXT it said 'a pending update for your boot partition is detected' and I think it was doing the boot image flash that you mentioned, right?
Unfortunately when I boo the device, I still got black screen.
Now I am unlocked and also rooted (since I successfully installed superuser in 4EXT). DO you think I shall lock the devioce before installing the stock ROM? If so, one possible issue is that if I relock the device, I found 4EXT is not available. In that case, how shall I install the ROM zip file?
Thanks.

Further update:
I flashed boot image by: fastboot flash boot boot.img which is included in the stock ROM zip file.
The flash went successfully. However, I am still not able to boot to Android. WHat I have is the device hang there, alternatively displaying logo with white background, and black screen.

Oh, and if, in the future, you do try the wire trick and get stuck at some point you can revert the changes with ControlBear -r or ControlBear -f from command line. And you may also PM me if you need any help. Cheers!

Similar problem, can't return to stock
I have a problem similar to lsdyna's, and am hoping that even though this post is old, MrJyrks or someone might be able to help me.
I am unsuccessfully trying to return my phone to stock. First a bit of history.
I had 2.95.651.6.710RD s-on hboot 1.58 Android Version: 4.03 HTC Sense version: 3.6 on my phone, and wanted root. I didn't need s-off, just wanted to root so could do some tweaking (stop some apps from autostarting, stop some form getting network access, etc.) so loaded 4EXT Recovery Touch, and got root (fastboot oem get_identifier_token method), got superuser in there, and happily began tweaking. Famous last words... I didn't make a backup right away (learned my lesson!) and suddenly found a 'overtweaked' sluggish phone on my hands.
Thought best thing would be to lose the root & return to stock & start over, carefully, making backups.
So I used Fastboot (fastboot oem lock) to lock it (worked) and proceeded to try to load RUU_Shooter_ICS_35_S_Sprint_WWE_2.89.651.2_Radio_1.09.00.0706__NV_NV_SPCS_1.43_release_271101_signed.exe into it [via my computer], but didn't realize until reading MrJyrks post that a lower RUU couldn't be used.
I now am relocked (phone does boot up, but can tell the system tweaks are still slogging it), lost the recovery, and wondering what to do... do I try putting recovery back in & using the Negalite 2.95 stock deodex ROM MrJyrks mentioned? If so, how do I use that zip file method verses the exe one I tried thru my computer?
Thanks for the help
You had issues with the RUU because your main version is higher than that contained in the RUU.
Unlock, flash recovery again. Boot into recovery and flash this zip: https://copy.com/wlVvwssXXNN00Pe
That will lower your main version. Relock the bootloader, put the phone into fastboot USB mode, then run the RUU while in fastboot USB mode.
Should be back to stock after that.
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!

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.

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.

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.

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)
