There is a list of ROMs under Android Development thread (CDMA or GSM). You can downloaded official stock unrooted ROMs or stock rooted ROMs.
if you do it will change your hboot and relock your evo but you will still have s off and yes you will loos root but you can root it and regain s off by going through the steps at alpharevolutionary.io and reinstall your custom recovery aswell

Hi guys, i'm just thinking about this:
If i downgrade hboot and i do root and recovery, when ics will be released i'll be able to update to it (FOTA)? Of course i'll go back to stock by RUU.exe

You can also wait till they have a rooted copy of it so you don't have to unroot to update it
Ok that's right xP But i can update to it if i get back to stock or not?

In all honesty, you can stay on stock, but there will be rooted version's, rom's which you'll want which will make the stock one look a bit naff, plus you won't be able to use apps like titanium and adfree etc.
Personally i'd never go with a stock rom, unless i had to. i'd probably get rid of my phone if i had to stay on stock.
I only want to know if i'll be able to update or no to ics >.<

Mmmm... but it's the same if i unlock now right?! So i unlock now and when ics is released i'll get back to stock Right?
Just make a nandroid of the stock rom once you have recovery cwm and then you can simply 'superwipe' and restore, then just ota update.
I never even used the htc_unlock site because I had a cid_001 phone.
But first i have to downgrade the bootloader. i have done it. It have changed my android version now i'm updating by ota to lastest firmware. And then i s-off and install recovery and do a nandroidbackup right? Answer yes or no.

Here's the stock recovery -------> http://db.tt/8kvjRqec
I agree with whoever said wait and get the rooted version.
A stock ICS rooted ROM will more than likely be up within 24 hr of it rolling, which is probably before most people get it naturally anyway.

I'm a noob so I cant message in the development forum.
Is anyone else having issues flashing the rooted stock ICS zip? Info- Rooted and S-OFF using revolutionary, TWR, Eng and updated to the lastest radios (ICS) and SU.
After installing ICS I get stuck on the yellow and white sprint 3D screen and then the phone reboots over and over and over...?
thanks for the help!

You need to flash the newest hboot (1.58) through the bootloader

That should work but it might be worth flashing the RUU rather than the piecemeal update of ROM, firmware and hboot as separate zips. You will need to reflash your custom recovery afterwards, but that's pretty easy since you stay S-OFF after running the RUU, then you can flash a rooted ROM. That will make sure your phone is 100% in sync with the Sprint ICS update.

I've been trying to flash some of these new roms such as Cool ICS and SolidRom MyUI, both to no avail. I am on h-boot 1.4 with s-off. The last successful rom I had running on the phone was ICS MIUI. I had tried flash these roms on ext4 initially, then I tried twrp and both without success. Any tips/suggestions to get one of these roms to work?
Do I need a newer h-boot in order to flash these newer roms with newer kernels? If so, then how/what do I flash without losing s-off?
Well here goes nothing...going to try jbear's 1.58 hboot.
I still get bootloop after installing Cool ICS...
Getting bootloop with SolidRom MyUI as well. Could use some help please.

If you are s-off then this should be easy to fix.
Some HBOOTs can only work for certain firmwares.
So if you want to run a ICS rom, you need to upgrade your hboot to either stock hboot 1.58, or Jbear's 1.58.5858
To upgrade your hboot, download the correct hboot from ramjet73's post here then rename the file to PG86IMG with the files extension as .ZIP
Place that on the root of your SDcard and boot into your bootloader. Accept the update, then restart your phone.
***EDIT***
I wasn't correct on some of the hboots and got some mixed up with the gsm EVO, for more info on hboots go to the link which ramjet73 has posted below.
I HOPED THIS HELPS!
MY PHONE

Then there are the newer firmwares that everyone has been having a fit over, 1.50, 1.58.0000, 1.53, 1.58.5858 (this is the Juopunutbear's custom hboot)
Those are the hboots that run only SPRINT/VM ICS roms.

You might want to read through this thread to get the correct information on CDMA hboots. Most of those you mentioned are Sprint bootloaders (the only VM bootloaders are 1.57 and JBear 1.57.5757) but 1.53 is for GSM phones only.

Leogy,
Hi!
Actually I have rooted my HTC Evo 3D that has a Swisscom Android 2.3.4 Firmware.
I was wondering, if I apply the updates that are available (Android 4.0.3), will I loose the root? (seems to be the case)
(I've just rooted my phone, I've kept the original ROM)
But more important will my device that is S-Off be S-On again?
Thanks for help and reply
If you use the ota or ruu you will lose root but if memory serves me you can't upgrade while unlocked anyways. There are upgrades on here that will allow you to keep root though. Search for the pg86img that captain throwback posted. Flash it. Update hboot to 1.58.58 wipe all partitions reboot recovery then flash ics ROM. Although not all ics roms require 1.58+ hboot. Read the op of the ROM you plan on flashing and it should state requirements. Aosp ics and jb use 1.5 and lower hboots.
Hope this helps.

That's probably the easiest solution.
You will not loose s off by upgrading/downgrading or running the ruu
If you run ruu...everything goes back to stock, you WILL stay s off. You will loose root though, so you'll need to install a recovery, and flash super user....you do not have to unlock boot loader again, since you're s off

Hey Everyone,
This is my first actual post on xda but these forums have helped me with many things that have come up with during my time with Android
I recently installed CM 10.1.3 RC2 for my HTC EVO 4g LTE and couldn't find a good guide to going back to the stock software that I had before. Nothing is wrong with CM but I just prefer sense for this device.
To install CM I unlocked my bootloader with HTC DEV and flashed twrp 2.4.1.0 according to CM's guide. I installed GooManager for access to the twrp bootloader but from their I'm confused as to how to revert back to stock htc sense. I downloaded the latest RUU for my device so if anyone can help me out that would be great. Thanks.

You can flash a Sense ROM. There are quite a few to choose from. If you want to go back stock and unrooted, you can run a RUU. If you're on the latest Hboot, you'll have to S-off and run VipeRUU to get you back to stock, since there is no RUU for the latest OTA.
Also, there is no such thing as a "TWRP bootloader". TWRP is your recovery

No. The RUU is run from your computer. Custom ROM's are installed through TWRP.

No. It's a "stock" ROM, not a RUU. If you truly want to go back completely stock, get S-off and then use the tool in the link below. If you simply want a stock-feeling Sense ROM, check out the development threads-there are plenty.
Here is the link to VipeRUU. You must be S-off to use it.

It would also be helpful if you posted your Hboot and radio (baseband) version.
