I would have just RUU'ed from the latest RUU. You can be S-ON and don't have to be S-OFF like the other method that was posted. Check the wiki and scroll down:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_Evo_4G_LTE
or if you want the direct link to it:

Updated radios with s-on

Hey guys where can I find the updated radios with s-on?

If you're S-On you cannot flash new radios at the moment without taking the OTA or flashing the RUU.

ok thanks and is there a way to get S-Off with the latest OTA?
The only way to get s-off is to get a phone with hboot 1.12 and applying the lazy panda exploit

thanks for your help and i have HBOOT 1.12.0000. so can i use lazy panda?
Yep just head on over to development and look through the guide. If you have any trouble with any of the terms or would just like to read up before jumping into the a-off guide, I wrote a pretty extensive post explaining just about everything I could think of.

Thanks man and I was just over there earlier today and I wasnt sure if I met the requirements but I just want to make sure what I am doing before I do a dangerous thing to my phone. Well I mean its not dangerous but it can damage your phone if your not careful. Cause I am still a noon at this type of stuff but when it comes flashing a Rom and mods and stuff I can do that but other then that I am still learning everyday about this stuff but sorry for the long post. Thank you for all your help today

If your s-on with hboot 1.12 you CAN flash New radios through the recovery. But only the radio. To do the rest you need to be s-off

S-off for hboot 2.09

Hi. If I didn't search thoroughly for a question like this, I apologize ahead of time. But I was curious if there is a way to s-off hboot 2.09 that is currently s-on?
I have not tried dirty racun yet.

Right now there isn't. That's the newest version and I doubt anyone has even begun working on finding the exploit as yet.
I was afraid you would say that.

I went s-on since day one after I got bored of stock and have never had any problems Tbh, I almost pity all the poor s-off folks who were too terrified to take the ota All it takes is a couple extra steps to flash anything and its been worth it so far. I preordered so I had plenty of chances to S-Off early on but I don't regret it at all.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Now s-on is not bad at all right? The only con is having to flash boot.img through fast boot when flashing a rom?

Another con is you can't update your firmware unless you relock and take the OTA or hope a recovery flashable zip comes along
So if your hboot was s-off, how is it any different than s-on? You still have to run the RUU to go back to stock then get the OTA right? Or are you talking about some other OTA?

There are Firmware zips available right now for 3.15 that can be flashed in the bootloader but you must be S-OFF to flash them.Just flash and everything is updated except hboot,kernel,and stock recovery.
Flashing those firmwares is the same as taking the OTA except for what I mentioned above

Ugh - took the OTA on an HTCdev unlocked boot loader and now it seems hboot 2.09 locks down the systems (can't update supersu binary, they locked down /system?). Now on viperboy stock rooted rom...
Hopefully they come out with an s-off technique for 2.09, need to be able to "hide" supersu/root binaries on my device...
Any news on s-off for hboot 2.09?
Hi, I'm am a noob, I got the JB update, then decided to root my phone. I am unlocked and rooted. I would like to turn s-off but my hboot is 2.09.
I am trying to flash mean bean and every time it gets to around 25%, my phone reboots. I am using twrp to try flashing it.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Or what I need to do?
Thanks again.

Flashable 3.15 firmware for S-ON?

I've read that eventually someone will create a zip file that S-ON people can flash to get the latest firmware? I'm unlocked with S-ON & HBoot 1.19 and the instructions to unlock in the first place was a pain and it sounds just as confusing to get the latest firmware. Dirty raccoon also looks like something ill screw up. Does anyone have an idea on how long this zip of the firmware will become available? Unless its flashing ROMs/themes its outside of my league

I realize it's not a direct answer to your question, but I was in the same position as you until yesterday when I finally created a live DVD of Ubuntu and followed the directions for DirtyRacun to finally get S-OFF on my hboot 1.19. If you follow the steps carefully and take them one at a time, it's really not that bad.
I'm now running rooted Jellybean stock with the latest radio. Good luck to you.

As far as I know you need full write access to nand memory to be able to flash any firmware. Dirty Racun isn't too hard to run successfully
If you are s-on you have to relock your bootloader then take the OTA to update firmware. After you take the ota you can unlock your bootloader again. Although it is highly recommended to s-off because there's no telling how long it could take to get s-off for the new hboot.
I just relocked and ran RUU now im back up and running and currently installing the JB update. I may re-root in a lil while i will just rock stock till the new year. Thanks for everyones help!

Couple issues

Hey people. I'm having a hard time flashing roms on my 4GLTE. Ill wipe, factory reset and wipe the cache but when I install the Rom it doesn't do anything. I've only been able to flash 2 roms the stock with goodies rom and the viper rom. And ideas on what's going on or help? Thanks
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Follow the tutorials under General and start with posting details such as current specs, SON, SOFF, Hboot etc., then which ROMs you have tried and steps you have done to attempt installing them.
The more details you give the more XDA can help.
Please give us some more information. Are you s-off? Are you on the most recent firmware? Have you updated your touch panel driver? What do you mean by "nothing happens"? Are you getting boot loops or is the phone not booting at all or is the touch panel unresponsive?

Sorry I'm on S-On I do have the latest hboot. I've pretty much tried every updated Rom in the forum. It will either 1, stay on the HTC screen, 2 it will boot loop or 3 ill just have a black screen where ill have to restart back into recovery and go back to my previous backup. I have the Viper Rom right now. I can try to attach a screen shot of the roms I've downloaded and all of them gave me 1 of those 3 problems except viper and the stock with goodies Rom

Being that you are s-on you have to flash the kernel/boot.img first use flash image gui from the playstore or fastboot flash the kernel.
I suggest getting s-off it will save you so many headaches

You beat me to it
Some ROMs (like Viper and MeanBean) include a kernel installer for S-on. For those that don't you'll need to follow bigdaddy's advice above.

Looking for RUU for 2.13.651.1

Does anyone have a link to where I can find the RUU for ICS 2.13.651.1? I am still running that on my LTEvo and I need to bring it back to stock (S-On and all) so Sprint will look at it. (They already told me they saw it was rooted and unlocked so they wont run the diagnosis software on it) I don't want to update it to JellyBean.

The RUU will update your Hboot version.
If you are S-off, running the RUU won't change it to S-on. There are some other tools available to change S-off back to S-on, though.
Check out the link in my sig for an explanation of the different Hboots.
