So I tried flashing MeanRom the ics version onto the Evo 3d, and it flashed it. But every time it booted into the lock screen it rebooted itself. So I tried going back to the back up I made. But did not work, tried flashing a different rom but did not work also. It will go into recovery which was twrp but switched it to Ext4. So whatever I try it will just go into the HTC logo and get stuck there. I am at a loss, Please Help.
I will keep trying, but I'm running out of ideas
it does have s-on
hboot 1.50.0000
u r s-on so u need to flash the boot.img by the fastboot

I had this exact same issue after trying to flash Myn's ICS ROM with Touch Recovery on 1.5 s-on..How I was finally able to fix it was to delete the 4 ext folder off my SD card. Then I booted into fastboot and pushed TWRP recovery back onto my phone and flashed a gingerbread rom. If you need help pushing the recovery via fastboot, this thread is the answer. Be sure to give JTNiggle some thanks.

Doesn't EXT4 Touch Recovery take care of that for you? That was my impression. Off topic, I know..
evo rebooting
yes 4ext recovery takes care of that and you guys should be using it and make sure you have smart flash enable
I did try flashing a gingerbread rom with twrp but didn't work, which is why I flashed ext4

Well I used the dumlock method, which should have helped me flash the rom without manually going into my computer to flash via cmd right?

Happens to me too!
To flash a new ROM, go to your computer, Command Prompt , type in the direction of your recovery. ex= cd\evo3dTWRP, then type in "fastboot boot recovery.img (or whatever the name of your recovery img is), press enter and your phone should boot into Recovery. Wipe all data, then flash ROM.
BTW: Do you have Smartflash Enabled in 4EXT,?
Well bootloader is working and the recovery is too, I used twrp but noticed it wasn't working so I flashed 4ext. But for some reason it won't boot up roms (of any kind) or even restore my backup. The recoveries will restore or flash the rom. But once I reboot the phone it will just get stuck on the HTC logo. Yeah smartflash is and was enabled.

If you're trying to install an ICS ROM, they tend to bootloop for most who are s-on. I recommend you get s-off.

So, I rooted my phone last night and ever since I've been stuck in bootloop. I loaded one rom and it was in bootloop all night until the phone died. I charged the phone up, wiped it and tried another, stuck in bootloop for hours with nothing working. Now, the bigger problem is, I - being an idiot - forgot to do a nandroid backup so there is nothing to restore too, yet when I set it to factory settings it's once again stuck in bootloop.
All my phone now displays is the green HTC logo on the white background, until the phone battery dies.
So... how screwed am I?
EDIT: CDMA, S-on, 1.50, I used HTC dev to root it.
Did you root with HTC dev. You need to flash the boot.IMG using fastboot.

Do what I said. Boot your phone into the boot loader. Select fastboot. Stick the boot.IMG from the Rom you used into the folder on the pc that you used with htcdev.
Connect your device.
Open up command prompt. Navigate to the folder in command prompt where you put the boot.IMG
Type fastboot flash boot boot.IMG
If it works it will say so restart your phone and enjoy.

Hopefully it will work. If you flash anymore roms you have to do the same flash boot.img using fastboot since you unlocked with HTC dev.

Meaning I can just nandroid backup this rom? Or do I have to reflash it then flash the new ones over it?
If you want to flash a new rom do a nandroid backup first and then wipe everything. But everytime you flash a new Rom you have to flash the boot.IMG seperatley that was supplied with the Rom if that makes sense. This also applied when doing a recovery.

Unless the boot.IMG is automatically with each rom that does not make sense. However, if that means (which I pretty sure it does, I just need that extra clear clarification) that a new boot.IMG is supposed to be supplied with every single new ROM then that would explain why my phone is still in bootloop. No changes since last time I was on, about an hour ago I took the battery out and restarted it.
So it's still in bootloop whenever I try anything.
Help as well...
Stuck in the same problem. Hboot 1.50, S-on, and I'm trying to load Evergreen's CM7 port. I'm also using CWM 4.x (can't remember number, just the non touch version). Whenever I try to start my phone all I get is the white HTC screen with the little vibrate, then the black screen, and then the HTC screen once again and so on. I've tried flashing the boot from the file and then flashing the ROM with and without the boot.img in the .zip file. Help me. Please.
You need to flash the rom first then restart your phone load in to fastboot and flash the boot.img using fastboot. Search the forums there should be a more detailed way on how to do this. But its pretty much the same instructions I gave in previous post.

hey everyone!! i really need u guys' help, my phone is either softbricked or stuck in bootloop right now. heres what happened, i have gsm evo 3d and i just got it s-on. everything was good, was on stock ics rom with superuser. made a backup using 4ext recovery so i thought i was good to go and tried flashing a sense 4 rom. after flashing, it got stucked in a bootloop and i later found out that i have to flash the boot.img. and so i did, but it didnt help. so this is where i panicked and went wiping and formatting and tried restroing the 4ext recovery backup i made and now... its stuck in the htc logo. means i soft bricked it?
If you can still get into recovery, you are ok. Maybe try to flash a sense 3.6 Rom (flashing the boot.img separately).
I also recommend getting s-off as that makes flashing easier.

As it has been said if you can get into recovery you should be ok. Flash a non ICS Rom.
And you'll get past the boot loop. To flash an ics Rom get s-off that hay you'll have no problems. Saying that if your stock ics you might not be able to downgrade your hboot ansld therefore you can't get s off.

i just tried flashing leedroid gb rom and its still stucked in bootloop and when i formatted sd card, my 4ext backup was gone too. please help :'(
I see that coal is offline so ill try to help a little. The reason you bootlooped after restoring a nandroid is because you're not s-off and you didn't boot recovery from fastboot, you couldn't write to the boot partition. I'm gonna take a guess and say that your boot is corrupt. To get past this. You need to boot a recovery from fastboot. Do you know how to do that? Do you have adb set up?
Take the more useful advice.... Ignore this. It's probably way off ....
How did you format your sd card.
If you can get to your recovery, I presume you can as you flashed the rom.
Mount USB storage in CWM or whichever recovery you have. You can flash a Rom as explained previously and it will boot fine.

I'll look for the stuff you need and post it when I find it. You're gonna need either an ruu or you're gonna need adb, and actually, I'm not sure but you might have to relock before running the ruu which means you need adb. Gimme awhile and ill post with some links.

An RUU is a Rom Update Utility, it will get your device back to stock unrooted.

Here is a link to the RUU's, make sure to get the one for your phone. I saw a lot of GSM RUU's but i dont know what carrier you have.
Here is a pre packaged adb installation kit.
You'll need adb installed to use the RUU because you're unlocked and it'll only run on a locked bootloader.
Once you get it installed, you need to find a recovery image. Put the recovery image in the same folder that adb and fastboot are in (platform tools folder) and rename it to recovery.img. Hold shift and right click in that folder and choose to open in terminal. Put the phone in hboot and plug it into the computer. Now Press power to select fastboot. Then type
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
You should now be in recovery and you can flash whichever rom you want to, or restore your nandroid.

I've read from other GSM users that the newest radios for GSM do not allow someone to install GB Roms as it will cause bootloops. That's why I suggested an ICS Rom.
As wild said, the fastest way is to run the ruu.

Hello all, and thank you for taking your time to attempt to help me with my problem.
I could not find a solution even after hours of researching and trial and error, so please forgive me if this happens to be one of those problems that are seemingly impossible to solve, when the actual solution is really quite simple! I'm hoping it is at the very least...
A few days ago I received an HTC Evo 3d from a family member.
I'm certain that the phone was completely stock, never rooted, no custom ROMs ---- just an ordinary HTC 3vo.
So I decide that I'm going to go ahead and find the steps necessary in order to flash a custom ROM, and I believe I did with this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1889438
I followed the guide, and eventually got to "***Step3: Perform JuopunutBear (wire trick) to get S-OFF status" where I had a little difficulty with the timing of the taps on the SD card. At one point I removed the battery from my phone because I thought it was stuck on the screen with the green arrow pointing downward, and after trying to reboot I found that the same JuopunutBear screen with the green arrow was still there.
I removed the battery once more, but this time when booting I held the volume down button to initiate bootloader. That went successfully, and so after trying the methods I found at http://unlimited.io/jbtroubleshooting.htm to remove this screen, I figured that I might try and flash a ROM from recovery and maybe that would fix it?xD My logic proved only half correct because even after formatting data/cache/dalvik, and then flashing a few different ROMs (not in the order of course) to see if any of them would allow the phone to boot up completely into OS, the phone is now stuck in a bootloop :'(
If I didn't provide enough information in the above description then I'd be glad to give any more details.
My bootloader reads like this:
- Juopunutbear -
SHOOTER XC SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.57.5757
eMMC-boot

Thank you again for taking your time to help me.
This phone has given me trouble since it was first given to me lol.
The first issue before rooting or anything was with the inability to use wifi!
I ended up having to buy service for the phone to even register my Gmail account..
You're in good shape
With s off you can recover easily.
The question is what do you want to run?
If you're going to stay ics sense, then you'll just need to format all partitions except sd and flash a Rom
If you want to run a jb Rom, you need to downgrade your hboot to the jbear 1.50

I'll try flashing different sense ROMs specifically,

Have you installed a recovery?
I suggest 4ext
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
I have installed a recovery, and it just happens to be 4ext!
I've been installing my ROMs by toggling usb storage in recovery, placing the ROM on the root of my microSD, and after disconnecting from usb storage I proceed to flash the chosen ROM, provided I've already wiped everything.
My trouble usually comes afterward when the ROM has completed it's installation and I go to reboot. Every time I've tried so far I've encountered a bootloop :/ But we'll see this time!
Gotcha
You'll get it sorted
What Rom are you trying now?
Sometimes you need to flash the boot.IMG after the Rom, but that usually only happens if youre s on.
If it still bootloops I would try this next:
Boot to recovery
Wipe all partitions
Reboot recovery
Wipe all partitions again
Flash Rom
Reboot phone
If all else fails you can run the ruu (will return u to stock Rom and recovery) and you will keep s off but will need to install recovery again.

I chose Team d3rp - Lights Out just to see if it would work, and to my surprise it did!!!
I wiped everything but my sd manually once,
and after flashing the ROM, the aroma installer gave the option to wipe again so I did.
After a suspenseful minute or two during the reboot, I finally got everything set up!
I can't thank you enough..!!
I'm not sure if I should make another thread or not, but the only problem I see now is with the wifi.
I have it connected to my network, and it's showing full signal,
but I can't access the internet and 3g doesn't even pick up when wifi is on.
If needed I'll make another thread, but I figured I would ask just in case!

You can only flash sense based ROMs with that h-boot. Since you're s-off just downgrade your h-boot to 1.49.0007 or 1.49.1107 and you can flash anything you want

Download the ruu for your phone. If you have unlocked bootloader you will need to do this a little different but for now.. get the ruu. Boot into hboot then go into fast boot.. connected your phone to your PC and run the ruu.... this will take you back to factory.. it is possible to dissect the rom and customize it all but that is something to worry about another day

What hboot do you have? Are you S-ON? If you have 1.53.xxxx hboot then you can install only roms available for this hboot (mostly ICS based on stock Sense, but sense 4.1 available too). Flashing with 4ext recovery with smartflash enabled is the only option if you are S-ON. To install any other rom you must S-OFF your phone.

So, do you have adb/fastboot drivers installed on your computer? If not install them and reboot your phone on fastboot mode. You need fastboot executables from AndroidSDK (from google developer site) to install the 4ext recovery. Download the recovery here and move it on the sdk folder on platform-tools. While on fastboot open a command prompt on this folder (right click on the folder) execute the command "fastboot flash recovery 4EXT_Recovery_Touch_v1.0.0.6_RC1.img" without the quotes, you can rename the file to whatever you like and change the "4EXT......RC1.img" with the name you choose. After the flash completes you must reboot on recovery using the volume buttons from fastboot. Go on settings and you will find the 4ext smartflash, enable it. Search for roms on development and try them, if you like sense the only supported roms out there is I think Yet Another Sense and mwakious3drom. Otherwise you can choose a senseless ICS based on sense or MIUI rom.

This time I am using YAS v11 and it's very good a week now. I used cm11 and cool ics. I like the mwakious rom for its features but I don't want sense 3.6. If I had to choose between theese I would choose YAS because I like the sense interface and its the only sense 4.1 supported by devs. You can always try yourself some roms and see which suits you. If you have any boot problems, unzip the rom, take the boot.img and flash on fastboot like the recovery, this time with "fastboot flash boot boot.img". For any aosp roms you need to downgrade your hboot and s-off your phone.

Many Thanks mhnx, there was a problem of boot which was solved by fastboot flash boo boot.img way. Hurray I got my phone back, thanks to you. was able to install YAS4 v11. Dont know about other roms. Is there any other less painful way of flashing roms.
How do I can install original HTC 3D EVO Rom and in this the 3D features are not working in camera.
Thank you again

To flash other roms from 4.1Jb and up you have to s-off and downgrade your hboot. I really dont know why your camera doesn't work, did you perform clean install (wipe etc.)?? If not try to do it. For stock rom you must run the RUU for your carrier model of phone. You can find on our forums the RUU you need. I' m happy your phone is back to life.

In reply to your inquiry about the stock rom, I've found over my months of lurking that many links don't work. This is the best site I've found so far for RUUs, and the one that personally took me back to stock today when all else had failed:
http://androidruu.com/Shooter/
I hope you do not mind, that I also ask a question related to yours:
I encountered a similar issue today, when I tried to flash a new ROM. I followed mhnx's instructions and updated my 4EXT recovery from 1.0.0.5 to 1.0.0.6_RC1.
My bootloader states:
*** UNLOCKED ***

Every time, when I try to flash a new ROM (including formatting all partitions except sdcard), the phone (GSM) just shows the HTC logo and nothing happens. Do you have any ideas how to fix this?

Does the log of recovery contain any errors while installing? Check the md5 of downloaded file. If you're s-off be sure to disable smartflash. Try to re-flash the recovery too.

Thank you for your answer!
When I first tried to install a new ROM (CM11 ....) I got an error, which was caused by 4EXT (--> it was still on 1.0.0.5, see error is described here). When I now try to install a new ROM (such as a CM11- or CM10.2-ROM - the files are not corrupted, I tried multiple ones), I do not get an error during the installation process - the phone simply does not go beyond the HTC logo.
Shall I flash 4EXT 1.0.0.6_RC1 again or do you prefer another recovery?

Wipe all partitions except sdcard and mount system, data and boot on mount options. Install again and see if this helps. If not I would suggest flashing a ruu and see if stock rom starts. If you want to change a recovery you will be able to flash only roms until 4.3jb. Try it and if it succesfully boot install the 4ext application and get the recovery from there.

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.

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.
