When I select reboot it restarts and boots up the a white screen with HTC in green and stays this way.
When I try running the RUU again it does the same thing, just sits on sending.......
I am able to get to fastboot and hboot screen.
I am able to use flashboot
I am not able to to use adb
When I click recovery it just blinks and boots back up to Hboot so I'm thinking I don't have a recovery.
I tried running HTC unlock website again but I recieve an error when running the flashbook unlock command.
I'm thinking the since I'm S-ON I can't run recovery from flashboot
Please help......
As I understand from your post, you were S-ON on GB, ran OTA, and were on S-ON HC, right ?
HAVE YOU TRIED THIS THREAD FIRST ?

put it in fastboot mode and run the RUU again.
from fastboot
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Run stock ruu (only if you have the exe)
do you have the ruu.exe or just the zip?
if its just the zip make sure you run cmd with administrator rights and make sure the ruu zip is in the directory where your fastboot resides. on a windows 7 box (Program Files (x84)/Android/android-sdk/platform-tools)
then:
fastboot flash zip ruu_zip_name.zip
Good luck

This should work for you, I had similar issues, and had to run fastboot commands to get it loaded right. This is the best explanation I've seen, should be added somewhere in the pinned docs.
Also you may have another option.
hboot 1.10.0000 is a stock hboot for the BB wifi flyer.
From fastboot you should be able to run revolutionary to gain s-off irregardless of your rom state. after you have s-off its just a matter of do you want HC or GB.
You can always relock the bootloader once you have a working rom again.
I have the HC s-off ruu. its buried in a thread somewhere but i'd be happy to host it somewhere so you could download it.

None of that is correct.
Is it just me or is the last post from the person with the issue from March 6th?

Yes, you're correct. I only replied to the thread to make sure the incorrect infomation didn't waste anyones time.
I hate to post a new thread on this, but I need help and quick (also, I literally have read through about 20 different threads and have tried numerous solutions)...
CDMA HTC EVO 3d
I originally was on Hboot 1.4, rooted using Revolutionary, updated to ENG Hboot and unlocked bootloader.
1. I flashed a stock ROOTED rom for 1.13.651.7
2. Switched backed to Ship Hboot 1.40 ( I saw that was required before relocking bootloader) [Something went wrong here I guess; although it appeared to work but got stuck at HTC white screen afterwards]
3. Ran RUU for 1.13.651.7 for Hboot 1.40 - appeared to work but still stuck
4. Relocked bootloader: Read somewhere I had to relock bootloader to run RUU properly
5. Ran RUU for 1.13.651.7 for Hboot 1.40 again - again it went through the whole process and said success but still stuck on htc white screen after reboot
6. Flashed thru bootloader 2.17.xxx.5 Hboot 1.5: Felt like I was out of options and saw a post to update to 2.17.xxx.5 Hboot 1.5
7. After doing #6, I ran the RUU for 2.17.xxx.5 Hboot 1.5 - ran successfully and after reboot still stuck at htc white screen then bootloops
Here is what phone currently shows:

I need to turn this phone back in to work - I am at a loss - any help is appreciated! To top it off, my battery won't charge and I have to keep asking a friend at work with same phone to switch batteries and charge it for me.
Maybe try running the latest ICS ruu exe.
Read, Search, Read again, ... Then Ask with Tapatalk 2
Since it doesn't say RElocked on the bootloader is there anyway to tell that I messed with it?
I don't think so. I would try running the latest ICS ruu exe just to see if it fixes things. If not, just play dumb when you turn it in.
Read, Search, Read again, ... Then Ask with Tapatalk 2
I guess I can give it a go...is this the latest:
RUU_Shooter_ICS_35_S_Sprint_WWE_2.89.651.2_Radio_1.09.00.0706__NV_NV_SPCS_1.43_release_271101_signed.exe
Yes. Connect your phone to your computer and boot into bootloader. It should say fastboot USB. Run the ruu and hopefully you'll be set.
Read, Search, Read again, ... Then Ask with Tapatalk 2
Run over it with your car and tell them it fell off your lap while getting gas.....
sudo passwd root
Odd...newest RUU won't run - it says USB connection error, although I have ran the older RUU's without issue. I am going to run the one prior to ICS again and if it doesn't work turning it in as is. I will just say did factory reset and after that it no longer will boot... Thx for your help
No luck - I'm done...very surprised the RUU's even after successfully updating and running didn't resolve the issue - I have never seen something like this before. Oh well, hopefully it doesn't happen to anyone else. I switched to the S3 so I won't be visiting the Evo 3d forums anymore.

But it suddenly went to boot loop and I tried everything from flashing boot or recovery images till different ROMs but no success finally I flashed globatron RUU_US_WIFI_B10.zip via adb and it was succesfull but still boot loop .
I attached the log file from adb flashing and logcat
If anybody could give some advice what else i can do more i appreciate it very much.
Been while since I played with the FLyer.
THe Boot, Kernel and Radio have to match. and I think you have to return to S-ON

Thanks for reply but I flashed the globatron's RUU_US_WIFI_B10.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19607833 which I assume all Hboot and radio's rom and kernel and so on are matched and flashed to the device , right ? if so can you let me know please what is the point to get back to s-on again ?
the other strange thing is when I flash any HC roms and corresponding boot.img it does not boot to ROM and goes to boot loop but when I flash JB rom from Dexter to boot to lock screen but when I continue to unlock item it re-boot . also I realized that WIFI and BT can be anable and working . I mean it seems they are not source of re-booting.
Anybody can please read the locat and let me know if they see any problem or how can i find the source of re-boot.
I did follow the S-ON procedure and still face with boot loop . now It is S-ON and i am not able to go S-OFF via revolutionary anymore due to boot loops or flash any other roms.
I do not understand why people they know, they do not speak and people they do NOT know much speak and let other persons to more mess with wrong advices !!!!

If you are now S-ON, then you should go back to the Stock RUU Honeycomb , load that and let stock recovery do the RUU update. Shuld put you back on unrooted, S-ON Honeycomb.
Like I said , I flashed the Stock RUU successfully but since it goes to boot loop a few seconds after booting I am not able to run revolutionary anymore.
I can go to hboot or fast boot but i am not able flash anything due to "FAILED (remote: signature verify fail) " now I am totally stuck
When I run the revolutionary it shows " Waiting for device... "
[Q] Evo 3D that hates me!!! ROOT s-OFF and unlock bootloader cant select yes
Hi all, im a newbie to android rooting etc, so please be patient if I dont understand... XD
I will try to give a backround with a very detailed discription for those who might have the same problem, a similar problem or for those trying to help...
so I bought this beast in Feb with stock software on: this was my 1st root, s-off attempt :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2130585
1st attempt quote from post
Hi there,
Developers, gonna be developers and android noobs
I got a small issue with mu EVO 3d GSM...
Firstly Id like to apologize if this has been asked...
Problem: I need to get past BOOTLOADER BLOCK !!!
Before you carry on reading -
Bought this phone online, from China, Original HTC!!! but with 1 or 2 chinese apps installed, Android 2.3.4...
This was standard when I first entered bootloader (out of the box)
***LOCKED***
SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-OFF RH
HBOOT-1.49.0012
RADIO-10.13.9020.08_2M
eMMC-boot
What is suprising is it needed to say Locked and s-on...
So I wanted to root and s-off...
Tried Revolutionary... Everything ran well, after 2nd reboot into bootloader, error - Communications between phone and PC has been interrupted
After that I retried and it said - 'Your device is already s-off' then it wanted to download and install CWM Recovery 4.0.142 Revolutionary...
HTCDEV - Step 13 didnt happen, it just stayed on the normal bootloader screen (in Fastboot USB)
Flashed a earlier version of HBOOT (1.49.007) before Revolutionary ROOT method(revolutionary didnt support HBOOT 1.49.0012), i noticed everytime i 'completed' revolutionary method with error, my HBOOT changed to 1.49.1107 for some reason, IDK
Now my bootloader setup is:
***Revolutionary***
SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-OFF RH
HBOOT-1.49.1107
RADIO-10.13.9020.08_2M
eMMC-boot
In CWM Recovery - I flashed SU.zip, it removed /bin and /xbin, and wanted to start copying or rooting file and then showed an error msg 'installation aborted', booted into ROM and SU app requested SU access???
BTW... downloaded and tried 3 RUU's all 3 for 3d of course and all 3 gave the same error - MODEL ID ERROR (i need the correct model) and in fastboot...
Use same Rev code : fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlcok_code.bin
Half the time it is done successfully but with no disclaimer screen (stays on fastboot) and changes hboot to 1107
OR
Gives error (Remote : Partition no avaiblable) or (Remote : not allowed)
Try fastboot oem lock, Doesnt lock and same result as mentioned above and every now and then it says loading custom splash sceen failed, htc disclaimer screen???
If anyone has had this problem or similar, please help, I would really appreciate it
Thnks in advance!!!
END
Now, Ive got a similar problem,
HBoot
1.58.5858 Jpbear
Unlocked
So I flashed the RUU_Shooter_U_TWM_TW_1.23.921.5_Radio_10.55.9020.00_10.13.9020.29_M_release_207920_signed.exe, it was the closest I could find with HBoot 1.49.0012 and gb 2.3.4...
Okay, np it flashed it with no problems... but little did I know, I lost root, bootloader relocked with disclaimer screen and lost s-off... Im buggered
So after messing around including almost bricking my phone, flashing new hboots, trying htcdev unlock with rogers, EMEA and sprint, no luck...
The only result is it showing the disclaimer screen (as mentioned in 1st boot attempt) that i cant select yes...
I tried flashing recovery, however when I flash recovery, it either hangs with HTC screen for a min or two then reboots or just hangs there forever...
Somewhere along the line I tried booting into Android and it jut boot in fastboot, for some unknown reason it also didnt pickup the PG86IMG.zip file I had on, it actually didnt pickup and PG86IMG files???
I also came across writesecureflag 3 in fastboot, gave it a try and it gave me a ***security warning***...
After that, I coud flash a PG86IMG but when I tried the htcdev unlock, I select ye, no response, removed battery and it said ***unlocked***, but when I flash a recovery, it flashes recovery in cmd but cant boot into it or it just doesnt flash onto the phone???
Somehow in between all of this I could get past the "yes" in unlock bootloader which was pure luck of the joy of the moment made me forget what I did before, I also tried flashing these RUU's
RUU_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.28.401.1_Radio_11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M_release_262714_signed
RUU_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_Rogers_WWE_3.28.631.1_Radio_11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M_release_262715_signed(1)

When booted in TWN-TW RUU, I could install Rom manager and flash CWM through that but through fastboot, it didnt boot through it
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot boot recovery.img
RESULT: hangs on htc screen for a min or 2 then reboot into OS
Now im currrently on Asia ICS, hboot jbear 1.58.5858, htc recovery...
And in want of root, s-off, and most important able to Unlock Bootloader by selecting yes with a response,
please ANY help would be of use
thnx in advance
Its not much but will have a small paypal reward for those who helped (btw it will prob help others aswel)

wow, you got a used or refurbished 3d which was already s-off. if you had posted before doing anything ,all you needed to do was flash a recovery and flash su zip. When you have s-off with custom hboot, like you had, you cannot unlock through htcdev and you don't have to. S-off with custom hboot means you can already flash any hboot ,recovery,Rom ,kernel or any mods.
You never needed HTC dev unlock.
you said.you are s-on with jbear.hboot? I.don't think.that's possible ,.check again if it's s-off or s-on . If it's s-on then it cannot be jbear.
You never lost s-off when you ran the RUU, you lost s-off by running the write secureflag command . It was your luck you were on stock.hboot , if you were on custom one,your evo 3d was dead for sure. Now flash the RUU that is made for your phone. then follow instructions from unlimited.io or ramjet73's thread , flash recovery then su zip. If you want another Rom you can directly flash that Rom without su.
Again, you never needed the htcdev. But now you will need it for the wire trick.
Thnx for responding, u made my day xD

So, okay, I messed around abit more, not as if I could do any further damage besides bricking LOL
So this is my position and will leave it till next response...
***Relocked*** (can unlock, relock np because of s-on, if s-off, I cant, it just hangs after selecting yes, no response)
HBoot 1.49.0012
I have fastboot and OS access,
cant flash recovery or zip, etc, can change cid
Hboot doesnt read PG86IMG.zip files at all,
Goes through PG86... list, hangs 2 sec on PG86IMG.zip, says checking or parsing PG86IMG.zip for less than a sec then 'cancels', goes to hboot screen
Rev tool does not work
1st attempt - (1st line)Zerging root...
result- Cannot aquire root
for 2nd consecutive to 3,4,5,etc attempt
- goes to 2nd line in rev tool,
result gives error Communications with phone stopped,
When flashing recovery, it flashes perfectly, when fastboot boot recovery.img or hboot>recovery, hangs for a while then reboots
So flashing files through fastboot is a no go (generally gives error > remote:not allowed)
Thus conclusion, im considering the downgrade/unbrick method but It doesnt pickup and PG86IMG files (check exact speeling p.s. have done this alot)
I did a day ago aquire root, 4ext recovery but wanted unlock boot loader, so s-on, the only way to unlock, then got myself to this delema, stupid I know :silly:
So if you have any tricks up your sleeve, let me know please and thnx
Hello everyone. I'm really new here. So I've tried the method in this article: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2221039
to root my HTC Desire HD
I was able to get my bootloader unlocked,a goldcard SD Card and installed the ROM indicated in the article. After finishing the installation, I turned it on and it got stuck on HTC Logo. At first I was able to get into RECOVERY in the HBoot, now I'm only able to get into bootloader and nothing else. I'm not able to go to RECOVERY AND FACTORY RESET anymore, the screen just goes black after choosing it. Though I'm still capable of connecting my device in the computer at fastboot usb, but adb isn't running.

Please help me. I don't know what to do anymore. Some other methods I've are really just confusing when the instructions says that the device needs to be rooted, in order for it to be rooted.
You never finished the guide you linked or you skipped some major steps as you still have security flags turned on (s-on)
adb will never work in bootloader, only in is or recovery - in bootloader use fastboot.
Being youre still s-on you will need to flash kernel through fastboot
Unzip the ROM you flashed and extract boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
