[Q] Can't get past htc screen once flashed shooter beats on GSM evo 3d - HTC EVO 3D

Hi,
I'm new to this forum and fairly new to rooting also.
I recently rooted my gsm HTC evo 3d using the htc unlock method
I have S-OFF and HBOOT-1.49.1107 (was 1.49.0018 I think)
and have revolutionary 4.0.1.4 installed.
The first thing I tried to flash was beats from this site:
androidadvicesDOTcom/install-beats-audio-package-android-device/
after rebooting, it turns out the only thing this did was remove sound from my device (music, in-call, everything) and no sign of beats.
Afterwards I tried to flash shooter beats 2.3, first using cmd with the flashboot command. It just got stuck endlessly rebooting itself on the green htc logo screen.
So I tried putting the shooter beats zip on my sd card, then going into revolutionary and flashing that way, once rebooted I am still stuck with the same problem.
If I were to do a factory reset on my phone, would it boot up with the stock rom and would I still have root? Or is there an easier option?
Thanks

One thing you should know.
Always do a nadroid before flashing anything. You will now have to look for a stock ROM do a full wipe and flash it

Ok, thanks, but not really what I was looking for.
The problem is that it wouldn't reboot after flashing roms (I tried several), so trying to install a stock rom would just do the same.
I didn't back-up as I didn't see any point to back-up when there's nothing on the device, and as you pointed out, there are stock roms available.
I reinstalled a newer version of CWM, wiped all date/caches/etc, before flashing a new rom and voila. So I guess the problem was in my install or version of cwm.

the first mistake you made was downloading from a site other then xda stick with xda when it come's to flashing that way you know what your getting lets start here the rom that you have flashed i hope you still have the zip file because you will need to wipe everything and use a super wipe tool and then reflash your rom that will get you going again

I got everything except the beats from xda, so I don't think that's an issue. Anyway, as I said, works.

How did you get S-OFF?
I have also an EVO 3D with HBOOT 1.49.0018 and i can't get S-OFF because Revolutionary only have 1.49.0008.....

Try downloading the PG86IMG.zip file for gsm, place it on the root of your sdcard and boot into hboot. Let me know if that works.
no go. i tried it, but still stuck at bootloop. is there specific PG86IMG.zip i need to download?

Yeah, the one for the GSM phone. In the GSM fourm, it's most likely one of the first few posts because its been stickied. Get the one that has your version of hboot on it.
my phone has s off revolutionary hboot. and i just went through all of those images on gsm forum....is there any other way to unbrick this?

can anyone help me with this problems? so far, i've tried reinstalling recovery v4, installing p861img, but no luck. any tips, any suggestions are helpful. please =(
Try doing S-On 'fastboot oem writesecureflag 3' and/or 'fastboot oem lock' in a terminal while in bootloader.
Then flash an RUU. It should work and boot up. If it successfully flashes all partitions and doesn't work, chances are it's the device.
i want to say thank you for all suggestions to bring my evo back to life, but unfortunately, it my 3vo refuses to cooperate. =( i am sending it to htc tomorrow. at least its s-on again for me to get it fixed for free.

ICS ROMs Give Me Bootloops!

I have tried to flash both Mean ROM ICS and viperROM ICS, but all i get is bootloops. I get to the main screen but all it does is reboot and say Android is Upgrading. BTW: S-ON HBOOT:1.5 Recovery:4EXT Smartflash ON
This is how i flash a ROM
1)From Fastboot boot into 4ext Recovery
2) Install Modified_Superwipe
3)Install the ROM
4) GET BOOTLOOPS!

Hm. Maybe just try manually wiping everything from recovery instead? I never use superwipes and as long as I factory data reset x2, wipe cache/dalvik x2, I never have issues. That's just how I've done it on all my phones and I never have issues.
I just flashed Newts One S RC3. It took me a while but I finally found a method that worked. I did it once and got through set-up and was in play store downloading apps when it went into boot loop. I tried the same method again and it didn't work. I messed around with different methods for a while before getting the following to work.
What I'm using:
HTC Unlock method
Hboot 1.5
S-on
cwm recovery 4.0.1.4
I used a computer to fastboot to recovery. Did factory data reset, wipe dalvik, and cache all x2. I installed the .zip rom file from SD card. And then installed the .zip anthrax ics RLS5 kernel file from SD card. Then I rebooted and so far everything is working fine. I've been running it for a couple hours now. I manually downloaded my apps one by one from the play store for fear of repeating what happened to me the first time. And I've just finished signing in to everything I use and haven't had an issue yet.
I hope this helps.

Yes i herd about this but have you tried charging or connecting your phone to a computer, many people can't charge or connect to computer via USB because of this kernel
Idk before I sent my phone in a had been using that kernel. I had no trouble charging/connecting. But really what it comes down to is every one of these phones is different, then you throw in the hboot and other key factors and it just gets worse.

Turn off smartflash if you are s-off you dont need it.
Then flash chads htc leak rls1 kernel, that stopped all the bootloops and problems for me its something about the stock kernel i am guessing. Everything worked fine after using that kernel. Anthrax rls5 says not to use it with sense 3.6, its right on androidfilehost. Chad said to use the leak rls1 instead for sense 3.6.
boot loop
wonder why every sense 4.0 ics rom i try to flash to my htc evo 3d... it always boot loop, i done tired everything everyone told me and the same thing happens.. only thing that really works on my phone is gingerbread... any suggestion??? really would appreciate it...

In my case I can't get any ROM based on the leaked RUU to boot unless I changed the kernel, this applies to both 3.6 and 4.0 ROMs. I don't know if you're GSM or CDMA but I know the kernel from Shooter_Ice works for me which is a GSM ROM. I can flash that over just about any ROM and it works or I can install the ROM straight up and it works to. If you're GSM, try that, if you're CDMA then look for a similar ROM that isn't based on the HTC leak.

ICS ROMs bootloop if you are Hboot 1.5 S-On (which you are if you unlocked via HTC). I recommend you get S-off using the wire trick or downgrade to 1.4 S-off. See the stickies in the CDMA Development section (or GSM development) to find information and steps on how to do it.

+1, go s-off and you can flash anything you want
Loop FIX
Sometimes you will get boot loops even with 4ext.
One thing that I have found which works is flashing mean ROM 2.4 ICS as a base.
This ROM probably will not boot or will get stuck in a boot loop but that is fine in this case. From there on use 4ext to complete a "dirty install" of another ICS ROM. I recommend SOS De-Sensed Rom. Sometimes flashing a ICS ROM on top of another ICS ROM (booting or non booting) allows for install.
to bypass all the bs go straight to fastboot and flash 4ext recovery 1.00.5 and do the s off wiretrick and then try to flash the rom... when you get s off it releases more permissions for the kernel to flash to the rom without having to use flash image gui from joekrimz
try this
ok you need to flash the boot.img file trough the bootloader, if that doesnt work try flash image gui
Flash custom rom then pull out your battery, go to fastboot then try flash this boot.img with fastboot http://db.tt/kEUVhnvV

Just to get you back on your phone, boot into recovery, do a full wipe, then flash this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318942
It's a stock ROM, but it's rooted. As long as you're GSM, you should be fine.

Hi,
Ive got similar problem. My Hboot is 1.53.0007 with S-ON. few days ago I tried to instal DSP manager for ICS but it didnt work, After flashing DSPmanager.zip the built -in music player did not have equalizer option anymore, so I decided flash stock ICS rom again to get it work properly.
At first I relock bootloader (RELOCK has shown) and then I wanted to flash it as update from main menu.But I couldn't get to boot up no more. I can access to bootloader, can flash recovery, or 4ext recovery, can flash the rom, but cannot downgrade Hboot to i.e. 1.49.018, and any flashed rom doesnt boot up, only shows HTC logo, then for 2 second booting flashed rom screen appears and then reboot- over and over again.
Have I bricked my device? I was looking for any working PG86IMG.zip, but nothing works. After trying to flash PG86IMG.zip it does nothing . I can also unlock device via fastboot, cause generated CODE.bin is always the same, so I neednt to do unlock via HTCDev.com. Also I cant flash this ICS update rom :OTA_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.28.401.1-1.20.401.8_release_2627623qpt0ma8rnwgn0qq.zip

You're device isn't bricked, it's in a bootloop.
If you can get into recovery, try flashing KingCobraICS V1.2. Make sure it's 1.2.
Otherwise, you can try flashing the ROM I posted above, it's a stock rooted GB ROM. Message me if you can't get this fixed.

Thanks, thanks and one more thanks. I flashed KingCobraICS V1.2, but only stuck on the splash screen (HTC logo), then, via fastboot I flashed follows:
Kernel:
3.0.16-ge733189: boot.img
and then
Firmware:
11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M: PG86IMG.zip
and device succesfully booted up an android, but I didnt have a SIM card inside, so on the screen was SAFE MOD written, so I turned off EVO and instal SIM card. When I have turned on EVO again it froze on the BEATS AUDIO splash screen. So I again did flash same rom KingCobraICS V1.2 and now everything is working properly.
One more question- what should I do when I want to stock ICS rom? I am really afraid to do anything due to previous complicaions. Can I flash GB stock rom and consequently ICS update.

Why would you want the Stock ICS ROM?
But, if you do want it, you'll need to flash the Stock GB RUU, make sure you have the stock HTC Recovery, and then lock your bootloader.
After that, you should be find to accept the OTA Update.

Did you try flashing the boot.img manually via fastboot?
The reason you at stuck is because of your hboot 1.53.0007 and s-on you must downgrade and s-off then if you want you can re s-on

Why would you want the Stock ICS ROM?
But, if you do want it, you'll need to flash the Stock GB RUU, make sure you have the stock HTC Recovery, and then lock your bootloader.
After that, you should be find to accept the OTA Update.

One of the reason is some not working stuff in Cobra's rom, in rom 1.2 wifi doesnt work and all patches dont work aswell, At rom 1.6 mobile data connection doesnt work. But, I still cant flash GB stock rom. Its cause Im not S-OFF I think. Have no luck to get work other rom except Cobra's. So Im at cobra 1.2 for now and trying to get another working rom to my EVO. Yesterday I tried to flash stock bootloader, no succes, and I cant flash 4ext touch recovery anymore. Only cwm 4.0.x.x I can flash now. i dont know why. I have to keep trying and there must be succes in the end.

after that here how i solved my problem with hboot status step by step:
=> (hboot 1.53.007 unlocked s-on) i found a kernel boot.img competable with hboot 1.53.007 (original one does not work) and flashed both rom and kernel.
=> (hboot 1.53.007 unlocked s-on) as soon as i have a rom working, i did wire trick and s-off'ed my hboot
=> (hboot 1.53.007 unlocked s-off) as i have s-off i updated firmware via hboot. bu before i changed my CID to HTC__001 from HTC__M27.
now i can flash any roms, kernels and firmwares.
thanks everyone for their help

[Q] Can't flash any ROMs

SOLVED!! Thanks to everyone, especially bigdaddy and FinZ! I will post something about what I did and what I used to get S-Off since it is actually really easy once put into easy to understands terms
Hey everyone,
Everything was going really as I was rooting my Evo 4G LTE this afternoon, until I realized I forgot to S-off. TWRP was installed and Superuser was flashed - Anyways, I got antsy and wiped the phone and flashed CM 10.1 and realized I forgot S-off - so of course, the phone wouldn't boot past the HTC screen.
I've been trying to flash stock roms to get into the superuser app, but none of them will load. They start to flash in TWRP, then the phone reboots to the HTC splash screen.
I am now unlocked, but still S-on. I can't flash any roms right now and was hoping someone might be able to help me out. I even tried the process all over again, but I get the same problem. So as of now, I can't get an OS on the phone.
Any ideas? Thanks.
Edit: I was running the latest OTA with HBOOT 2.09.

Flash meanbean or viper rom, both have s-on kernel installer and you should be able to get s-off using dirty racun or moonshine... Sharkie rom is a stock rom too with a s-on installer... Good Luck!

Question... How did you install your recovery? Goo manager, pj75img.zip, or fastboot? I have had this same problem and the only solution was to fastboot flash a recovery... Dunno it was very weird and has only happened on my lte but it's been months.

I installed it using fastboot. I'm going to try one of the ROMs suggested above and see if that works. I'll let you all know as soon as I do it.
I keep reading that Moonshine won't work with HBOOT 2.09 - and I haven't had any luck getting it to work; it still gives me connection issues saying it can't connect to the phone. It's weird... I can use the adb devices command in recovery mode and my device ID shows up, but when I go into fastboot USB and do adb devices, I can't get it to show up. If I could somehow get that to show up during fastboot, it would mean smooth sailing.
Update: I successfully installed Meanbean. However, I still cannot gain S-Off. Moonshine won't work and I do not know enough to use DirtyRacun since it must be used with Ubuntu. I'll post my Moonshine issues in that thread
Thanks for the help with this! It looks like it just needed a S-On ROM to be installed which I though I was doing before!
I've tried every single HTC driver available and I can't get anything to recognize the Evo when it's in fastboot. It only recognizes the device when the ROM is loaded and USB storage is enabled. Unfortunately, I can't get s-off (as far as I know) without being in the bootloader and using fastboot.
Anyone know how I can achieve this or how I can get everything to communicate with one another like they're supposed to?
Have you deleted all the HTC stuff on your PC rebooted it the plug you phone back in and it should load the drivers again
then boot into bootloader and it should load more drivers
also try updating your android-sdk
Make sure you have the most current HTC driver. At least one person that I know of had issues until he updated to the most recent driver, which can be found in the link below. Use the HTC driver from post #2.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2179776
Also, like Bigdaddy said, make sure you have things like HTC Sync removed. Make sure you're using a USB 2.0 port, too. I don't know where you read Moonshine doesn't work with Hboot 2.09, because it does (specifically for the latest OTA).

Can you flash boot.img from fastboot? If you can flash the boot.img from Negalite zip. Can you enter 4ext recovery? Try reinstalling the drivers.

What recovery are you using? Download this and flash it from fastboot. Enable 4ext smartflash and reflash the rom. If it doesn't boot again extract the rom and flash the boot.img from fastboot. If you have any question quote me to get notified.

it works.
a big thanks bro, it worked. I earlier used clockworkmod recovery but as you suggested when i used 4ext recovery with smartflash enabled, it worked in first try, thanks a lot.:good:

I did unlock the bootloader and I had installed 4ext recovery. During the process, PACMAN just kept rebooting the phone and I got so frustrated. I followed some other trend to rectify it, but I ended up taking off 4ext and the original O.S from the phone

So you have to reflash the 4ext and download a rom. You can find Here the 4ext recovery. Flash it through fastboot and after that you can enter 4ext and flash any ics sense-based rom and your phone will boot.
