[Q] Error When Flashing ROMS - HTC EVO 3D

I have a Sprint HTC Evo 3D with HBOOT 1.58 running ICS. I managed to Unlock the Bootloader and get TWRP on it...but when I try flashing [ROM] CyanogenMod 11.0 - VILLUMINATI, it throws up an error...I admit, i've not tried any other ROM but that one seems to be the one that i want. I have re-downloaded it and get the same results. Do I need S-OFF? I think I still have S-ON.....I just got this phone so i'm very new to it....and I can't post in the thread about that ROM b/c of my low post count.....

You will need soff and to change your hboot to 1.50 or lower.
ICS needs 1.57 or 1.58
Anything else needs 1.50 or lower

Thanks for that...I watched a video on it, and maybe i can do it...this is the most "Extreme" method of "modding" a phone software.....The ROM i'm trying to install is 4.4.2 I think, so I need to keep it at 1.58 I assume for that?

NOW i got another problem. Trying to get the RUU file installed from a guide i found on here and i had to run that SetLowVer app or whatever its called and RUU Installer shows its 1.00.000.0 and trying to update to 2.89.651.2 but it fails every time!
EDIT: Got the RUU done, turns out I had to RELOCK the device
EDIT 2: I have S-OFF now! Now gotta figure out how to "downgrade" HBOOT

Did you figure it out?
If you have s off the hard part is done!
To change hboot all you need to do is flash a pg86img through bootloader

[Q] Not a Noob but could use some help with pg86img on hboot 1.50 S-on

I've been doing this **** for well over 2 yrs now and im either having a serious brain fart of perhaps this hasn't been entirely, exactly discussed yet .... I have googled til the cows come home and can't find an answer.
Im on hboot 1.50 with S-on bootloader is unlocked through HTC Dev
I want to flash the new i.c.s. PG86IMG.zip that Freeza (the one without the new 1.57 hboot) just put out to go along with the ICS ruu that Virtuous has put out however I know that I cannot just put the pg86img on my sd card and flash it by holding down the - volume button and power through bootloader....
MUST i relock my bootloader, ruu it back to stock and then go about it doing that way OR is there a way that I can use commands to flash the PG86IMG.zip file?????
Help would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: I just relocked my bootloader, RUU'd it back so now I have a relocked bootloader, with hboot 1.50 S-on and when I take my battery out, put it back in- hold down vol down while pressing power....then it scans and finds the pg86img.zip but it does not offer me a chance to install the pg86img I'd REALLY appreciate some input here. Thanks.
I was too lazy/tired to downgrade so I just wiped and flashed just to see what would happen and it worked. After it booted, it was stuck on the HTC setup so I pulled the battery and rebooted it. I'm on Hboot 1.50 with S-ON.
I cannot for the life of me get the PG86IMG.zip file flashed.... i've PM'd a few different dev's but heard nothing back yet.
Man you should have atleast unlocked your bootloader first see if you can boot in to boatloader and fastboot USB if so then you can correct the problem

Depending upon which DEV i've spoken to, i've been told to try this that and the other and lol nothing works. I dont get it. I've been told to go back entirely to stock unrooted; that didn't work. Been told to root it, that didn't work.
I never had any problems flashing roms using htc dumlock but the problem is, the file I am trying to flash is not one that can be flashed through CWM/TWRP, only by being renamed PG86IMG and being started through hboot.
any other suggestions? hell i'll try em all!
I would go back to stock and start from scratch

With HTC unlock, you cant flash radios (freeza's zip) & splash screens that are part of those custom PG86IMG zips. The only way to flash an Ruu is to have stock recovery/relocked and to flash the same or newer fw version (2.08, 2.17, etc).
I'm not 100% sure but the ics leak version is 1.13 which may not pass the version check.
I've read some posts that indicate an hboot 1.4 downgrade for S-off is required as things sit right now. Definitely changing daily though.

To further reiterate, S-ON means you do not have permissions to certain partition of the phone to flash radios, or flash kernels/roms without the 1.5 fastboot workarounds. The firmware freeza has, requires access to that certain partition. So without s-off (1.4) you cannot flash the firmware/radio for ICS.

[Q] hboot 1.53.0007 s-off

hi s-off my phone when the hboot was 1.49.0007
but after the ics update i re(s-on) my phone for the new ics update
but now the hboot is 1.53.0007 and can't make it s-off(Update sucks nothing special)
1_tried using unlimited.io but didn't work made an error my guess because it's ics
2_tried using GB ROM(Leedroid) didn't work
used fastboot flash boot boot.img still no luck (restarts every 5 seconds)
3_PG86IMG.zip fails (Main version is Older)
4_last shooter ruu error 140
Any advice? thank you
If you accepted an official OTA update, then you are likely now stuck in Hboot1.5-Hell. (I made this mistake many moons ago.)
You can try one of the many methods to downgrade your HBoot, but I don't know how that works with the official ICS update.
Sorry.
thanks for answering
hope there will be a solution soon
not much of a problem still can flash any ICS ROM Unless Sense 4.0
but if there are any other ideas please help

That error could mean the update put your bootloader to stock I'm not certain of what your capable of doing at the moment but I do know to unlock the bootloader for hboot 1.5 you had to use the HTC unlock method and maybe you'll have to use it. I'm not an expert so this may not be the case but keep in mind you said your hboot is at a different value than previous to me it would only make sense to use the HTC method to unlock reestablish root the use the wire trick to get s-off. If you try this I wish you success. Sorry if this seems lacking but if I find something out I'll make sure you know

1_ you tried unlimited.io and it didn't work? Thats surprising to me.
2_ have you tried booting recovery from fastboot and flashing a gb rom? Fastboot boot recovery yourrecovery.img
3_ You can run an older ruu if you change your main version, but it still won't lower your hboot, your phone says its version "x.x.x.x" and the ruu is lower so it won't flash.
4_ you will never be able to lower your hboot unless you use a downgrade method like unknownforces brick/downgrade. If you put a lower hboot in the newest ruu, it won't run because you've broken the HTC signature. Id try the wire trick again if I were you.
Question, why did you s-on? I've taken ota's with s-off and as soon as I see the new hboot I just reflash the engineering hboot.
I have ~ the same problem as friend.evil, although he says he can run roms with Sense < 4, (if i understood correctly) while i can not.
I did try the lastest GB (provided by anryl) PG86IMG, with no luck (device always stuck in boot loop), but i do not have any goldcard (nor could i find one for evo 3d, but i did not google for it that much)
I am not sure about what you (anryl) mean by « official pg86img with changed older hboot ? » ?
Would an ICS RUU solve the problem ? I will probably also try to downgrade hboot if no other suggestions pops up =S

I don't mean to be insensitive but if you s-on'd and then took a new ota then youve got a problem on your hands. An older ruu with an older hboot will do you no good as it won't flash unless you change your main version, and even if you do that it won't flash an older hboot, just an older system (gb). You should go ahead and check in to downgrading.

Gotcha, well you should consider downgrading to get s-off. It's much more trouble free than s-on. Are you gsm or cdma?
NVM, dumb question, lol, if you took an ics ota then you're gsm
Edit... After reading your post in the link provided, is say that an ics ruu would fix u up. I'm cdma so I wouldn't know where to find it at.
Thanks for you suggestions… But still, i don't understand why downgrading should be necessary : why would flashing a rom, stock or not be a problem for the bootloader ? Can we not write to system or flash the boot partition anymore (from fastboot, using fastboot flash boot boot.img ?) in 1.53.0007 ?
(And indeed, gsm forgot to mention, sry)

You might be on to something there, some hboots don't accept commands that others do. I would think that if you changed your main version and then ran a gb pg86img, it would get you back to gb but it won't change your hboot.
Have you tried booting a recovery from fastboot with fastboot boot recovery.img?
You can't use radios, ruu's, or the juop s-off method with 1.53. It's like having a locked/unlocked boatloader.

Running the RUU will not downgrade. If it did why would they have had to make all of the complex steps to downgrade from 1.50.
Is there a way to make the RUU see the phone as a lower h-boot version without root access by tweaking the RUU exe. just a thought.

Like a previous poster responded, get s-off using the wire trick. It only takes five minutes once you setup. People who have done it wish they would have done it sooner.
Look the bottom line is if you want to go back to H-boot 1.40 you need to S-off.
Countless people in this thread have said that and you refuse to accept the fact your stuck on H-boot 1.58 until you S-off.

Download the 1.4 hboot, rename the file PG86IMG.zip (case sensitive) and place it on the root of your sd card. Make sure that the ROM you are running will boot with the 1.4 hboot first. If not, boot to recovery and flash one (the reason I suggest this is if you have an hboot 1.58 ROM on there and flash the 1.4 hboot, you'll get bootloops). Then, boot to bootloader and have it "update" to 1.4. Reboot and remove the file from the root of your sd card.

Bricking the phone with S ON will cause it to enter emmc mode in which an Hboot can be flashed.
But he should change the main version to the lower one before attempting to brick it.
After flashing the hboot, device will have been unbricked, but RUU still needs to be flashed.
It is possible, but whether there is a guide for this or not, I don't know; nor do I know if it is practically possible either.

Phone won't go past bootloader.

Unsure what happened. Phone has been rebooting and overheating for days so I went to RUU it and after I relocked the bootloader my phone decided not to go past bootloader anymore. When I try RUU I get Error 140 Bootloader Version Error. My bootloader has a Security Warning at the top which was not there before. I would like to RUU and get S-OFF so I can take the phone in without issue but am having no luck.
Some more info would be useful. What Hboot & baseband are you currently on, and what RUU did you try to run?

The radio version is directly below the Hboot version. That looks like the Hboot version. Boot into the bootloader and list the info displayed in the top left corner of the screen, all the way down to the radio version.
You relocked so you'll need to unlock again. You may even need to install a recovery again. What ROM/kernel combo were you on? If you were on a custom kernel, I would try a different one or stick with stock. Some kernels don't play well with certain phones, especially if you're overclocking or changing the voltage any. For now, try unlocking and getting the phone up and running again.
Also, gaining S-off is highly recommended

Hboot is 2.09 Radio is 1.12 I cannot unlock because it won't write. I cannot seem to do anything. I tried using the Unbricking tool but it does not recognize my device. I think this issue started when I tried to lock after a failed s-off attempt.
What do you mean when you say it won't write?
Also, for your radio, use the last four digits, not the ones at the beginning.

Full Radio is 1.12.11.1210 and when I flash something via fastboot it sends it then has a write error. I have tried flashing RUU's, recovery, my unlock_code all to no avail. I tried using the unbricking tool but linux doesn't seem to see my device (I am new to linux). I appreciate the help btw.
You won't be able to use fastboot commands to push a recovery to your phone while it's relocked. Also, the RUU won't work because you're on a software version higher than the most recent RUU.

The the op... Have you gone through the steps to HTC Dev unlock again? What does it say when you send the unlock token?

The unlock token won't write. Nothing will write. If there was a modified RUU that would help. If I could modify my version so the RUU would work that would work... and yeah HTC really screwed us...
Edit: Actually the unlock_code.bin writes but then nothing happens on the phone...
Update: took it to a sprint store and they fixed it. They apparently have 3.16 RUU. Or magic....

Does it boot to ROM or recovery?
I would suggest running ruu if nothing boots

I see you have 1.40 hboot. If I remember correctly, the locked/unlocked status was introduced with the 1.50 hboot update. If you are looking to root and/or get s-off, then you are in luck. Revolutionary works with hboot 1.40. So I don't think you would even need to do the HTC Dev unlock.

no it does not boot to rom or recovery
Need to flash from SD card would use 1.13 ROM.
This is a link for RUU, you pull the zip from it and flash from SD card or search and find PG86IMG.zip for 1.13 which has hboot 1.4 and is the ROM revolutionary s-off uses. Anything else will update hboot.

Sir,
it got installed successfully but the problem is still same that after the splash screen of Sprint 3D the screen remains black blank and the LED remains on .....please guide what to do if i am doing any process wrong i've tried both the ways running the RUU through computer and via SD card but from SD card it won't run just after checking the image file it remains on the bootloader screen and if i try to run recovery option then it ended up in the black screen with a Red Triangle with a Exclamation mark in it.
Please Guide what to do next
Thnx n Regards
Chhaayank
Did you get any errors? Version mismatch?

no sir, when i installs it from computer by running the RUU it doesn't reflect any error with version 1.13
Are you using PG86IMG.zip to flash from sdcard?
Look here for the zip file
