[Q] [help] :'( HTC Evo 3D GSM bootloop - HTC EVO 3D

Hello,
I have HTC EVO 3D GSM Rooted,lastest 4ext recovery and hboot 1.53.0007 s-on.
I tried to flash CM11,10.2 and I get stucked in bootloop. I can't remove it.
I tried wire trick to obtain s-off 27times and didn't worked.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks.
Have nice day.

For the wire trick you need to be on stock rom or at least in a rom near stock.

I tried RUU and CoolROM. I'm running on MIUI now. ICS.

What if I try to flash cm11 with flashing kernel?

Nop.
S-off required to downgrade hboot.
1.53.0007will definately not work!

Ok .
Can I try do wire trick on MIUI or automatically won't work?

I did the wire trick on 2 devices, one with stock rom, the other with rooted stock rom. Cannot say if it works with miui.
Sometimes it needs more attempts because timing was not correct. Be sure to use an empty sd card or you might loose data.

[Q] HBOOT 1.49.1107 question

Hi guys!I have a simple(I believe so) and maybe noob question but I wanna be sure about something.I have recently rooted my 3VO and I had to downgrade to HBOOT 1.49.007 in order to do so.I have flashed the leaked Virgin Mobile ROM with Sense 3.6 and ICS BUT I HAVEN'T FLASHED THE FIRMWARE.ONLY THE ROM!
I saw that my HBOOT has gone to 1.49.11007.Now,my question is:is this bad or does this affect my device by any means?(EVO 3D GSM)If i want can I unroot and receive OTA updates,can I downgrade HBOOT,etc...?
THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Your hboot is on revolutionary correct?
Does it say that up top in hboot? That means your probably s off and good to flash firmware as well as ICS Rom

You still follow the same procedures to unroot for ota, flash stock ruu for your phone after locking bootloader. That is all.
S off is what you want, bit ota only works on stock ruu

Thanks!(I have already hit the thanks button).Since you are very helpful(I am glad that someone experienced told me that upgrading bootloader didn't affect the phone) can you explain me something else?I have had this problem since installing custom ROMS.
If i shut down the phone and plug the charger in,the red LED goes on for about 3 seconds than goes back off,than back on and stays so,and in the morning when I power on the phone it says that I have around 60-70% battery(even though the LED is green).
If I charge the phone while on ,the LED stays red and the phone charges to 100%(but it won't come down to 95,then again 100 and so on).I have downloaded a battery calibration app and I have thoroughly followed the instructions(charge to 100,calibrate,discharge,charge to 100).
Will this eventually destroy my battery?Is anything wrong with this situation?
Thanks in advance
Nobody knows what this could mean?

Messages app won't open

I just updated my ROM to the Shooter Beats for GSM version and it's been running flawless except that I just noticed my messages app won't open at all. It just has the spinning circle. Is there any way to fix this, or do I have to go back to my old stock rom?
I've gone to settings, applications, messaging and went to clear the cache, but it was all greyed out.
Evo 3D GSM
S-Off
Sense 3.5
Not sure what other info you'd need.
If there's anything that I can do that can solve this can you please let me know?
Just you use a newer rom, with sense 3.6

Really? Something that simple?
The hard part is finding a good one haha. I'll try that and report back here.
Yes, newer roms tend to be updated more often, bugs reduced, I believe shooter beats is an older rom. Suggest you can try coolexe, predator 395, or kingcobra's rom. Factory reset, cache & dalvik must be cleaned before you flash any rom.

Ok, thanks, I'll look for one of those. Seems they are all a bit older as the new ones are geared to ICS which I'm not on. (Haven't figured out how to get it yet)
You are rooted, s-off? Recovery? And are you gsm . Then it's very easy to flash

Thanks for the help
Just follow the instructions, I believe you may have to update the firmware (pg86zip) and if you flash kingcobra make sure you pick sense 3.6 on first flash, read instructions, go leafs go

And another problem... in titanium backup, I'm trying to restore apps, but my "settings" is missing it says "The linked program is no longer installed on your phone" and I can't restore it because the phone is set to block non market apps. Vicious circle.

Is there a rooted (official OTA version) ICS rom for Evo 3d?

My Evo 3D is unlocked, s-off, and running hboot 1.4. I know the OTA update for ICS and Sense 3.6 was just released, but I was wondering if there was a version of that update available that would allow me to upgrade without locking my phone or turning s-on? In other words a clean upgrade (preferably something i can flash from my phone) from android version 2.3.4 to 4.X (whatever the OTA update will upgrade me to) and HTC sense from 3.0 to 3.6. I couldn't find anything when I googled it, and the only thing close to what I was looking for here (hopefully I missed it and my answer is somewhere among the threads) required the wire trick, which im not 100% comfortable with.

If you unlocked and s-off you can flash almost anything you want, the wire trick is for s-on , you need s-off the flash the new firmware that is required fir ics, go to cdma devel. Section
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using xda premium
You're already S-OFF, which means the wire trick doesn't apply, because the wire trick gives you S-OFF.
If you want the stock, rooted OTA, I would look here:

As long as you have s-off you're fine, the relocked thing doesn't matter, that happens to pretty much everyone who flashes the new fw s-off, don't worry about it.

Do I Need S-OFF?

I unlocked my bootloader with HTC dev, and have S-ON. Apparently, it is okay to flash roms in this state, having used this method. I don't want to try flashing, as I don't want to risk bricking my phone and I am waiting for either cyanogen mod for my GSM version of the Evo 3d, or a decent, working jellybean ROM. So, do I need to get S-OFF, or am I okay as it is? If I do need S-OFF, what would be the best way to do it?
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using xda app-developers app
Oh yes, and I have superuser, Google Now, CWM recovery and HBOOT 1.53.0007.
U don't need it but it makes things easier. My bootloader is locked but I have s-off. That's the way I prefer it. U really only need one or the other to flash roms.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
If you want to flash new firmware you do. If you want to flash a kernel, depending on your recovery, you need to be s-off or use a computer to boot recovery. If you want a custom splash screen, you need s-off.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
I just installed the 4ext recovery and flashed a few roms. It can accommodate S-on to some degree. And its a lot easier than using the volume butttons to do anything in recovery.
You should give that a shot if you haven't already.
Is there much risk in using the wire method to gain s-off? I don't want to break any part of my phone and that sounds like it might... Im fine with the splash screen, and I don't want to mess with kernels. Would s-on restrict the usage of roms such as cyanogen mod, and is that rom likely to be released for the gsm evo 3d?

A lot of the ics roms that have true 3.x kernels that work better with updated firmware. You would have to s-on to update them. Unless you relock take all the otas the unlock again, but some roms based on the new OTA need the 1.58 hboot and all the aosp roms can't use it so it necessitates going back and forth with hboots. That also requires s-off.

it honestly doesn't hurt too much to do it, especially if you don't intend to fiddle around/flash ROMs with your phone too much.
Yeh man I was a bit skeptical to do it too, but after doing the research and finding out it was recommended to do S-off I was glad i did, and its fairly easy to do.

Best way to root and S-OFF software 3.15?

I don't think you can S-Off yet with the latest. DirtyRacun may support it now I could be wrong. Watch Qbking77's videos on YouTube to unlock and root your device. Good luck and welcome.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
If you are already on 2.09 hboot, I think you have to use the hboot downgrade method to brick your phone and install an earlier hboot which will let you run dirty racun. It is by no means easy, and I don't know if there is still support for that method.

The only way to downgrade your HBOOT on this device IS to brick your phone (if you're S-ON, that is). I think you misunderstood. This device is much more locked down than the OG. "Forget everything you think you know."
But at this point, the downgrade method isn't supported (yet). I already bricked my Jewel trying it (granted, that was after the downgrade was completed successfully, but still).
The team that put together the downgrading tool is still working vigorously on confirming a method that will work reliably with the new HBOOT. Stay tuned.

^^^ This. The OG EVO and this phone are not the same. What worked on one won't necessarily work on the other. Just wait for an S-off exploit for the new Hboot, otherwise you'll end up with an expensive paperweight, like the Captain did:banghead:

Once you have S-Off can you go ahead and RUU to the latest one.
