Downgrade H-Boot 1.58 - HTC EVO 3D

Is there a way to downgrade htc hboot 1.58. I have tried the live cd tool, but when i try to brick my phone, the hboot says file is older than main verson or something like that and it makes me reboot. Please help. I really dont want to HTC unlock, but will if i have to.

You can S OFF on Hboot 1.58

Stay on topic. Also, if you cannot help, it would be better not to post these insignificant responses.

You should S OFF first. i think it's possible to downgrade with S ON there may be a thread in the Dev section, but I don't recommend that.

He can't ask Jesus for help because he's dead and his body died 2000 years ago. lmao! What I've found is there is no need to downgrade as long as you stick with ICS. of course I have no idea what I'm talking about. BUT those guys that figured it out do!

You cannot downgrade and flash a different downloader unless you are s-off.

Flash an RUU that would have 1.4 like ver 1.13 in Fastboot USB:
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Shooter
From there, flash a recovery. I suggest getting 4ext control app.

I tried running the RUU and and it said ERROR wrong bootloader or some equivalent . ( im on 1.58 locked S-ON)
having a helluva time downgrading, even HTC Dev unlock is telling me the same bootloader crap

Running the RUU will not downgrade. If it did why would they have had to make all of the complex steps to downgrade from 1.50.
Is there a way to make the RUU see the phone as a lower h-boot version without root access by tweaking the RUU exe. just a thought.

Like a previous poster responded, get s-off using the wire trick. It only takes five minutes once you setup. People who have done it wish they would have done it sooner.

Look the bottom line is if you want to go back to H-boot 1.40 you need to S-off.
Countless people in this thread have said that and you refuse to accept the fact your stuck on H-boot 1.58 until you S-off.

I am on relocked 1.58 s-off from 1.4s-off. how do i go about reverting it back to 1.4 s-off?

Download the 1.4 hboot, rename the file PG86IMG.zip (case sensitive) and place it on the root of your sd card. Make sure that the ROM you are running will boot with the 1.4 hboot first. If not, boot to recovery and flash one (the reason I suggest this is if you have an hboot 1.58 ROM on there and flash the 1.4 hboot, you'll get bootloops). Then, boot to bootloader and have it "update" to 1.4. Reboot and remove the file from the root of your sd card.

Bricking the phone with S ON will cause it to enter emmc mode in which an Hboot can be flashed.
But he should change the main version to the lower one before attempting to brick it.
After flashing the hboot, device will have been unbricked, but RUU still needs to be flashed.
It is possible, but whether there is a guide for this or not, I don't know; nor do I know if it is practically possible either.

If you have PG86IMG.zip that contains only hboot 1.40, you can flash it through bootloader or you can flash eng bootloader

[Q] After S-OFF

So now that I have s-off through the wire method, what now?
I went and read the 5 pages in the development but everything is so unclear. After obtaining s-off i dont want to flash the wrong kernal or do something in the wrong order and brick my phone.
I want the latest ICS that has been leaked for the Amaze, and the latest sense which I think is 3.6, I read the threads relating to the two, but it doesnt tell you what other things need to be done (pre reqs) before following their respective instructions. Thanks to anyone who replies.
I have a telus htc amaze, unlocked bootloader via htcdev.com, s-off, and I have the hboot from juonoputbears s-off method (Anyone want to tell me exactly what this hboot is and how it is different from other hboots in the dev thread?), Is my htc a ruby?

ok HTC amaze = Ruby and you are almost there. all you need to do now is super cid your phone and flash the ICS and start using FACE UNLOCK .
I will help you out but there are answers to all your questions already. Since you are on telus, you will have to supercid your device. The device name for the amaze is ruby. You have most of the prerequisite elements in place.. Check out this part of the ics thread...

xndabox, is that the most useful hboot out right now or is it just more useful for the stuff that I am about to try? Ray, would it be better that I use the hboot that xnd posted?
Also, Do I have to do anything with something called "recovery" or was that already accomplished when i unlocked the bootloader/ s-offe'd my device/ hbooted the whatever? I used to have an atrix and there was something called clockwork mod recovery or something that allowed us to get into a menu after boot if needed, but for the amaze there is already a menu there. Thanks and a +1 to all the helpful posts you guys had after I get a clear image of what to do after supercid.
Sorry I went to bed. But I recommend this hboot to future proof for anything that can come up later.. But I did find this for you. ..

I installed a custom recovery:

Now I think I need some sort of eng hboot, but I don't know if the eng boot you provided is appropriate, can u confirm after reading the link I sent you, Also where would I flash the eng hboot, will it be a zip file that will be installed under the recovery I downloaded? Thanks for your quick replies.
Download the hboot from the telus how-to.. Then rename it to what he says ph85img.... You can flash that through the bootloader.. Which recovery did you use? It says to back up your apn address first though.
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using XDA
Either hboot will work though, both account for the same thing.
Over 10000!!! You bet I am.
Thanks for the help! my last question pertains to the instructions for downloading ICS recoveries:
1) Be Locked with S-Off using JuopunutBear's S-Off method.
2) Flash the ENG Hboot 1.90.2005
3) With S-off and the ENG Hboot, rename the RUU to PH85IMG.zip and put on root of external SD card
4) Boot into bootloader and apply the update
5) Once updated, reflash the ENG Hboot again
6) Flash the CWM 5.5.0.4 recovery in fastboot (fastboot flash recovery *****.img)
7) Flash the Superuser package in recovery to gain root
For step 6 and 7, once I have root access, how do I completly delete/remove CWM 5.5.04, so that I can install a different recovery instead and still have root?:

Thanks for all your help.
You can sub cwm with twerp from the amaze all in one tool. But when you are rooted, you can install any recovery software. Any rom for the amaze.. Any kernel for the amaze. Benefit of root, s-off, and eng hboot.
You are done! Did ics boot already?
4ext app will override whatever recovery software you have installed.

ICS Leak 3.14 Revert to GB Stock?

Hey guys i'm s-off on 3.14 ICS leak. I have to return my phone for replacement device and i have searched everywhere and can't seem to figure it out. the RUU exe has never worked for me and idk what that really is.
any help is appreciated!
Get the 2.01.605.11 .zip from here
http://www.androidfilehost.com/main/Rezound_Developers/wildstang83/RUU/GB/
Rename it to ph98IMG and place it on root of sd card. It would function the same as the .exe but all steps would be done on the phone itself.

i tried that but then it said "parsing ph98img" and then it just reboots back to my ICS leak
let me re-download
Dunno why the .exe version isn't working for you, what problem? Just make sure the download itself is good, drivers are good (Google and download HTC Sync) and USB debugging is turned on in the phone's settings, should be fine.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19756694
Grab the 2.01.605.11 RUU .zip version, rename to PH98IMG.zip, slap it on the SD card and go to the bootloader if nothing else. Then follow that S-On guide listed in the same thread. Make sure to factory reset before shipping off.
Edit: just saw previous posts, check md5 of your downloads, does sound like you're getting a bad connection to get all these errors.

You have to unlock the bootloader to re run the ruu if I remember correctly. That will take you back to stock gb with s-off and lock.

I've been pretty braindead and stressed out lately, feel I've harmed more than helped on a few troubleshoots.
But I assure you 100% the bootloader will not read "locked" that way; RUUs do not affect the Locked/Relocked/Unlocked flag.
Once Unlocked, HTC Dev only toggles that message and Relocked.
To get from Unlocked after S-off to simply Locked means setting up stock, do S-on, and running through S-off procedure again.

Sounds like you're in a pickle. I don't think the ruu is out yet.
I can only think of 1 thing that'll work, although their might be other options. Try to downgrade your hboot using unknownforces method. I don't think you have to be in the android system for it to work.
Not sure if it works on hboot 1.58 but I don't see why it wouldn't.

i can't attempt unknownforces method because i can't flash a .zip. It'll give an error about older/newer hboot before it starts updating.
also i've already tried using HTC's dev unlock, but it gives another error regarding older/newer hboot
Just install one of the new ROMs and do the wire trick to S-Off. Then you can downgrade your Hboot. Virus has a stock rooted ROM in the dev section. I used that ROM when I did the wire trick. Now I'm back on Devil Toast with eng 1.04 Hboot.
Edit- Just noticed you said you tried to do HTC unlock but can't. So you're saying you are S-On Locked without a ROM? How is that even possible?

As long as your LOCKED S-ON, and not RELOCKED S-ON, take that thing to a repair center. If they don't have the Sprint ICS RUU (which I doubt they do) to restore your phone, they'll give you a new one.

You need to download the PJ75IMG file for the hboot 1.12 and save it to the root of your sd card and reboot into the bootloader. It will scan your sd card and ask you if you want to install the update follow the on screen instructions wait and your phone should reboot to bootloader and display the the updated hboot you flashed in bootloader. Then your good to go.

I'm not sure how you can be s-off and have h-boot 1.15 there are alot of people that would know how you did it but to flash the lazypanda hboot you have to flash it in the bootloader not recovery Make sure you delete the PJ75IMG file from your sd card after flashing
It's probably not a good idea trying to downgrade hboot /firmware even if you are s-off.

This is the best advice you can get.
I actually didn't take an OTA update, I manually flashed the hboot and radio. I'm a noob to the whole Android scene coming from WebOS, so I didn't realize how much of a headache hboot updates would cause. Lesson learned!
I tried flashing through bootloader and it didn't work, but that may be because of my zip. I downloaded it straight from LazyPanda site. Guess the next thing is to download the whole package of the original official zip and strip out everything except for hboot.
All right, so I must be missing something. I have PJ75IMG.zip with nothing but hboot in there and it's not flashing. What else should I be including? Thanks!

Also, if you've upgraded to ICS, the 1.93.0002 SHP Hboot is required to SuperCID!
Im trying to find out how to get this HBOOT installed.
All the software I found says I need a HBOOT.img file. I found some HBOOT files on JuopunutBear site but they dont have any img files only
hboot_8x60-lte_1.93.2222_20120315_signedbyaa.nb0
How am I supposed to downgrade?
Any help is welcomed

but do I have to rename the file extension?
The Amaze_SOFF_All-In-One_Kit says it needs a HBOOT.img file
Thanks

Yep just rename it. However, make SURE it's the right Hboot.
Other than that, just rename it to hboot.img and you should be golden.
Out of curiosity, what HBOOT are you currently on?

When you mean the right one you mean GB or ICS right? You may find this funny but im getting the phone in about 1hr.
Whenever I get a new android phone I like to research all the procedures and possible issues and download all the needed files prior to getting it.
That way im not stuck with a bricked phone trying to figure stuff out afterwards

You should worry about S-OFF first before you actually worry about supercid. Also, if you do S-OFF and you choose to install the j-bear modified hboot, it installs the .2222 hboot so you really don't need to flash an hboot, because it does that already. But still, do check before you actually attempt supercid

Once you s-off, shp hboot should be your default.
