EVO 3D, S-ON - Hboot 1.49.0018 - GSM - Endless reboot loop - HTC EVO 3D

Hi!
I have found similar problems in the forums, but none of the post seem to help my problem here.
My phone can't startup, it just continue to reboot after 15-20 seconds (showing the white screen with the HTC logo)
Hboot info:
*** UNLOCKED *** <- (used the HTCdev.com method)
Shooter_U PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.49.0018
eMMc-boot
(date and time)
I can enter Hboot, have managed to get revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4 on it. Tried a few different ROM's trough the Rev. tool - they seem to install fine, but I still can't start up the phone. Also tried to change my hboot by dl a (PG86IMG.zip) file, seems like it's installing/unzipping when I turn on my device (blue bar at the right hand side of the screen fills up to the top) then nothing happens. The version is the same and so on.
I know I have USB debugging checked and fastboot checked, but I cant turn it off as long as I can't startup my phone? - if this is what causing the problem? Any ideas?
EDIT: I also tried the factoryreset/wipedata/wipe cache from the revo-tool.

Thanks to steveruthless this case is now SOLVED - Thanks again!

how did you fix it?care to share how? thanks

Same problem. How did you solve??

Same problem. If someone got an answer, I would be pleased to know.

If u have hboot 1.49 it would be best to use revaluationarys

I'm not 100% sure since i'm S-On HTC Unlocked CDMA version, but with S-On/ Unlocked, you have to enter recovery via fastboot command prompt (ie: type: fastboot boot YourRecoveryFilename.img ). The filename has to exactly match the filename you flashed to the phone AND the filename that resides in your fastboot folder (you have to leave a copy there, idk why). Once in recovery you can format system, wipe data, and flash rom's & kernels. If you don't enter recovery this way the kernel won't load and you will boot loop.
There are other options, such as JoeyKrim's Flashimage to flash the kernel first, then enter recovery by any method to flash the rest, or you can extract/copy the "boot.img" from the rom's zip, put it in fastboot folder and (type: fastboot flash boot boot.img ) to flash the kernel separately via fastboot command. Doesn't the first option to enter recovery via fastboot just sound more straight forward?
Note: I have some examples in my Guide/flashing notes thread (in my signature) that may help you understand better, but keep in mind its for CDMA version so none of the files I've linked will work with GSM, but the 3rd or 4th post for flashing roms/kernels should help.

Sorry for this taking so long guys..
I fixed my issue by simply using a cmd prompt and boot the img from the zip/rom you have downloaded. I'll try to my make a step by step here:
1. Boot into fastboot and plug in your usb
2. Copy boot.img from the zip/the rom you want installed) and paste it to your Android SDK tools folder. Prob: C:\Android SDK\tools
4. Open a command prompt in C:\Android SDK\tools
5. Write in fastboot boot boot.img the CMD prompt
Voila! Your phone should now be working again.

Whenever you try to flash ROMs always follow these steps , if you are unlocked via HTC method.
Boot your phone in bootloader > Select fastboot > connect to PC >phone should say fastboot-USB > open cmd > navigate to fastboot folder > put your recovery in that folder > pull the boot.img from the ROM you are trying to flash and put it in fastboot folder > then type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" > then type "fastboot boot recovery.img (your recovery name might be different so use that name instead) > Your recovery will boot > Wipe everything first > then flash the ROM.....

the command is fastboot FLASH boot boot.img

Can't relock EVO 3D unlocked with htvdev

I installed Leodroids rom with s-on, but saw the kernel was not installed. So I saw that I had to have s-off to install a kernel, so I decided to do the revolutionary method but I needed 1.49.0007 for that and I have 1.49.0018.
I followed this link;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1316578
But when I write
"fastboot oem lock"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It says
C:\Android>fastboot oem lock
... INFOLock successfully...
OKAY [ 0.021s]
finished. total time: 0.021s
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and when I reboot the bootloader or boot back into android I still have an unlocked bootloader and can't relock.
I tried running a nandroid backup I did with CWM when I was running stock rom and tried relocking with that, didn't work with this too.
What am I supposed to do to relock my phone and do the rev. method?
UPDATE, Apparently the tutorial tells me to do
"fastboot oem writecid HTC__001"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This ended up with a "fatal error" but still changed to HTC__001.
Now when I try to revert back to my original cid (I got it before writing cid via readcid) I do
fastboot oem writecid HTC__M27
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and then do readcid, it reads HTC__M27, but when I reboot the bootloader it is still HTC__001.
So apparently the HBOOT can't save any settings.
This is my main problem.
UPDATE#2...
PG86IMG.ZIP was corrupted.. I got a newer one and it was good this time.
The phone read it, said "Parsing.." and kicked me out back to the normal menu.
Any tips?
UPDATE#3 and probably last..
I found out about the tool called Flash Image GUI(.99cents at android market) which will install kernels on S-ON EVO 3D devices.
I was trying to install the leedroid kernel in the first place so after hours of trying to solve my HBOOT problem(and I still couldn't, it is stuck on unlocked and HTC__001, doesn't affect me though) I still couldn't, found about this, installed the kernel and now I am happy with my device.
But still, if you guys have any idea why my HBOOT is read-only now, hit me up so I can solve my issue.
unlock bootloader
your trying to take short cuts first you need to unlock via htc dev now when that is done you need to flash a custom recovery via fastboot using fastboot commands like fastboot flash recovery cwm-4.0.1.4-shooteru.img you can find this in dev section and once that is done dowload lee droid rom and before you flash the rom you will need to wipe ceche wipe delvik ceche wipe battery stats and now press the back button until you see your download folder scroll down to it press power and the zip file you downloaded should be there now scroll down to it press power to flash your new rom and when thats done dont go through the set up go boot back in to boatloader and conect usb press power to get in to fastboot use it should be a red box that says it now on your pc or laptop open command prompt now typ what ever commands you use to get your adb commands and fastboot commands and once thats done typ fastboot getvar cid it will display your cid number now that you see your cid number you can change it to HTC__001 and the way you do this easy typ fastboot oem writecid HTC__001 press enter now it will write your new cid number next you will typ fastboot reboot-bootloader press enter once it rebooted into bootloader you will want to go back into fastboot now tryp fastboot getvar cid your new cid number should be HTC__001 now thats is done go here [Tool][Vodafone+Unbranded!]One & Only easy + working downgrade for revolutionary after this you will have hboot 1.49.0007 once this is done now your ready to s off head over to alpharevolutionary.io

+1, worked.. trying for 10+ hours, thanks a lot
G u i flash
and if you follow these steps you can bypass the gui flash tool dont get me wrong it works but it also will cause problems with dual roms that means it has two kernals and it doesnt allow the user the abilty to choose the correct kernal to flash i know becuase i went through it
I did all that, but...
As I said, I did all that, but when I got to the part when I use Revolutionary tool, I got my beta key and type it in, then it reboots my phone to bootloader and so 4 times and then it says to me that it filed and that I can make lemonade!!
I do not wan't lemonade, I wan't S-OFF...
Where do I get wrong?
What to do to avoid this error?
btw. I can't RELOCK my device. I was able to HTCdev unlock, I have unlock_code.bin, I have flashed recovery cwm-4.0.1.4-shooteru.img, and then later even 4ext...
But I still get this:

Flash RUU again, and start the process all over again??

[Q] Re-installing Amon_ra

Hi Everyone,
I heard good stuff about Clockwork touch recovery so I tried it but it doesn't seem to be as stable as amon_ra, but for some reason I can't re-install amon_ra.
From fastboot, I get this :
D:\Android>fastboot flash recovery recovery-ra-vigor-3.15-gnm.img
sending 'recovery' (7078 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.411s]

FAILED (remote: not allowed)

I think it has to do with my HBOOT but I don't know how to fix it. This is what I see when I'm in fastboot :

What do I need to do in order to reflash amon_ra?
Thanks

Either unlock it (I suggest no) or flash my ics jb hboot
Or I could package you up a ph98img.zip with amonra
The third seems the easiest

Make sure the IMG is named recovery.img and zip it up, then flash in the bootloader

Awesome, thank you
You can also download it in an already zipped flashable file HERE Just make sure to rename it to PH98IMG.zip and after flashing you will have Amon Ra 3.15 installed.
does anybody still have this in a flashable format? (all links are dead)
Getting the failed remote error even after flashing jb hboot (or at least trying)

In my google drive...Ctrl-S to download. RENAME it to ph98img.zip and put on your ext-sd card. Boot into bootloader..ie. pull battery, replace, hold volume down, press power button. Bootloader will look for ph98img.zip files and should find this one if you renamed it right and then flash it. If it doesn't work, make note of any messages so we can help.

When done, rename the file!

[Q] Tried everything and still stuck on white HTC screen boot loop

-Upload PG86IMG,zip onto phone. Updates fine and reboots back into bootloop as well
-Don't have a nandroid backup and can't get into recovery anyway. When i flash recovery through CMD i get the message:

ok now you take the rom and open it up on your computer and extract the file boot.img
copy it to the same place where fastboot.exe and adb.exe are located
go to your phone and hold in the volume down button and press power to get to your bootloader
select fastboot
then plug it into your computer
open up a terminal window on your computer and go to the directory with fast boot and type in
fastboot flash boot boot.img

Interesting. You used the HTC unlock method and your phone is showing s-off. I was always under the impression that the HTC method leaves you s-on.
The reason I say that is because your phone is showing symptoms of being s-on. If you use 4ext set to s-on and try to flash a GB Rom, does it work?

ok now you take the rom and open it up on your computer and extract the file boot.img
copy it to the same place where fastboot.exe and adb.exe are located
go to your phone and hold in the volume down button and press power to get to your bootloader
select fastboot
then plug it into your computer
open up a terminal window on your computer and go to the directory with fast boot and type in
fastboot flash boot boot.img

Man i just tried this 3 times and no luck. I dont know what else to do. This is so wild.

[Q] Im at my wits end.. Please help.

So last week a friend asked me to s-off his phone for him.. The phone ended up bricking (recovery gone, no os, etc...)..
Where I am at:
1. The phone is S-ON (Actually says "Monarudo PVT Ship S-ON"
2. The phone has an unlocked boot loader
3. The phone has TWRP 2.4 installed
4. HBoot 1.33
5. Radio 1.01.01.0110
6. OpenDSP v6.120.274.0114
7. eMMC-boot
8. The phone has a 4.1.1 based rom installed (Tried carbon 4.3 based, same issue and CM 4.2 based, same issue)
I have tried moonshine and face's s-off with no luck. I get about half way through with moonshine and it just sits there counting, adding periods.
I have tried :
1. Flashing a stock hboot 1.15
2. Flashing the stock splash
3. Flashing the stock RUU
Issues :
1. The phone gets NO reception Just the X with empty bars. I don't know if its the radio or something. Every once and a while I get 2 bars for a second but it goes away.
PLEASE HELP! I feel horrible that my buddy has to borrow my bionic until this is fixed.
when I tried the stock RUU from HTC it gets to a point and fails telling me incorrect image or seomthing like that.. Should have written it down, I can run it again if the error helps.

Every one learn everyday.
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
soff
W00t! S-Off is done.. HBoot time....

yes u need Hboot, but you did before unlock, s-off with moonshine method or revone?
you can try RUU now but If you get an Image 158 error during RUU, try flashing the stock hboot again.
All sorted out.. Thanks everyone. I s offed, unlocked, and flashed new radio. All is well

[Q] HTC Rezound/Vigor ROM not flashing in fastboot

Hi,
I have HTC rezound running on a seemingly stock ROM. It was unlocked but I relocked it using the "fastboot oem lock" command.
According to a guide I went through, you download the ICS image "rezound_AndroidPolice_3.14.605.5_PH98IMG.zip", change the image name, upload it to the phone internal SD, reboot to bootloader and go into fastboot. Fastboot should automatically detect the zip file and start the flashing process. unfortunately this is not happening on my device.
HBOOT shows info below
***RELOCKED***
VIGOR PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-2.11.0000
RADIO-0.95.00.1118r/0.95.00.1223r
OpenDSP-v10.6.0.7611.00.0919
eMMC-boot
Oct 6 2011, 15:43:22
I am currently using the phone in GSM mode and its been working fine for a while. I just want to flash to a newer GSM based ROM. AOSP or CM will do.
When I try to force using "fastboot boot PH98IMG.zip" I get message below from my command prompt
PS C:\android-sdk\sdk\platform-tools>fastboot boot PH98IMG.zip

I am a little confused here... What is the PH98IMG you are trying to flash? You do NOT flash a ZIP file with this command, fastboot flash commands are to flash specific partitions with their specific image file... I think you are mis-informed about how this all works.
You need to copy the PH98IMG.zip file to the root of the SD card, and reboot into the Hboot, it should detect it and flash it automatically... Or you would "fastboot boot recovery.img" to bring up recovery and flash the ZIP via recovery,

Hi Acejavelin.
Havent done this in a while, last time I flashed a ROM was in 2011. Anyway I sort of managed by using commands below (by the way, I have no SD card, checked and slot is empty). Thats after rebooting to HBOOT and choosing fastboot with USB connected
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip <filename>.zip [had to do this twice, first time it failed]
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot reboot
Thanks for your hints still, will try that. Only issue am having is the "sim card from an unknown source" message.

You should really get a microSD card... Fastboot flashing of ZIP images with stock hboot and recovery are questionable at best, as you have seen... Being S-off makes all this very simple if you have an sdcard. I would also make sure you are on current radios and bootloader.
As far as the unknown SIM message, you will get this on the stock ROM, but will not on a custom ROM... It is not service affecting though, only a visual annoyance.
