[Q] Stuck at HTC White Screen - PLEASE Help! - HTC EVO 3D

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.

And you should have down graded to 1.49.007 or 1.49.008 did you down grade to any one of these if you didn't then you would have to down grade to anyone of hboot numbers above

When you follow a Guide, you should follow it thoroughly. Do not skip any step buddy.
I can see you are still on latest radio and 2.17 ROM with hboot 1.4. Why didnt you followed the last few things of the 2nd step?
You should run 1.13 RUU exe before running revolutionary. After that you will be on the old 1.13 ROM and the old radios and baseband with hboot 1.4. Then
Turn On USB debugging from settings > Applications > development.
and run revolutionary and you will be good to go.
You can then again upgrade to 2.17 with latest radio by keeping hboot 1.4 and S-OFF by flashing this from bootloader (rename it PG86IMG.zip first) --> http://db.tt/F6iivHSC
That zip will upgrade everything including firmware,radio,baseband (software version will be 1.13 though) after flashing that you can restore your 2.17 nandroid or can flash any 2.17 ROM without changing hboot and S-OFF flag.
NOTE: Do not use 2.17 RUU or your hboot will be upgraded to 1.5 again. S-OFF will still be there.
1.5 isn't a big deal. As long as you have s off it stays til you change the secure flag. You can still flash roms. Etc

thank you i guess i did miss some steps, its been a long day with school, kids, and work i will retry again and ensure i follow all steps.

Do not retry all those steps, you should just use the 1.13 RUU EXE now, then revolutionary IMO , just check again what steps you've missed.......
thank you for your advice it worked i guess i was just so excited about getting 1.4 without totally truly bricking my phone i over looked the rest of the steps... i am now 1.4 with S-off. Thank you everybody for your input.

Please help!

So I was trying to root my CDMA EVO 3d earlier and failed. It kept sticking on the sprint loading screen no matter what rom I flashed to it. I unlocked the bootloader through HTCDev. I then loaded the teamwin recovery and tried to flash a rom through that. I'm guessing I missed a few steps (first time messing with a droid) and locked it up. Now I got it relocked and tried to load the:
RUU_Shooter_S_Sprint_WWE_2.08.651.3_Radio_0.97.10.0808_NV_SPCS_1.31_003_release_219445_signed.zip
but it was the wrong version appearently and I'm out of ideas as I've been working on this all day long. I just want to be able to use my phone again but if I could obtain a full root in the process that would be nice! I hope someone here can help because you guys are my last hope! I've done lots of reading and searching but nothing that has really explained my situation. Thanks in advance for any help!

Save the Drama for your Mama with Tapatalk 2
Yes I did try that one along with the newt rom, mikrom and a few others to no avail. :crying: I'm at a loss, I loaded the teamwin recovery back on, every time I flash a rom it gets stuck on the loading screen and never fully boots.
I just read that apparently, none of the old ruu work in the new hboot if s-on. I recommend you get s-off.
Edit: Not sure if that'strue as I've heard conflicting information.
Save the Drama for your Mama with Tapatalk 2
Okay I'll try that next, thanks for the input!
I tried getting s-off by the Live CD method, booted it from a flash drive, locked it back up and when I went to brick it, it said the ruu was the wrong version. I used the version listed in the guide so I'm not too sure which version I need.
So I was told there is nothing that supports hboot 1.58? Is this correct? Can anyone confirm this? Guess I just have to wait for someone to put something together that supports it?

SOLVED : never asked for help -till now

I just bought this flyer 3G version It was working with 2.3.4 when i bought it.
I've searched the entire XDA forum ,modaco and loads of the other sites. Been attempting this for 4 hours straight x 3nights in a row.
I've managed to get Bootloader unlock via HTCdev but still on S-ON because my hboot is 1.11.011 Flashed the Paul obriens modified HC boot 11.11.0011 image. I got revolution CWM and i can get into it but now suddenly fail to adb into it.

I think my flyer is in limbo.
CID=044 which is the HTC Asia WWE one.
I tried: Installing some custom ROM's as soon as i achieved bootloader unlocked. Tried the latest LOeeDroid etc. BUT they all fail at the HTC boot screen. Even after waiting for 10 mins. Yes I did extract the boot.img and flashed via fastboot due to s-on but still stuck at HTC boot logo.
Ran the RUU's directly from fastboot mode (i just double clicked on the exe from my PC) -HTC Asia WWE . but they all fail on installtion/ signature. RUU_Flyer_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.48.707.4_Radio_20.3501.30 .089BU_3809.05.04.10_M_release_193927_signed RUU_Flyer_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.27.707.1_Radio_20.3504.30 .089BU_3809.07.04.06_M_release_204905_signed RUU_Flyer_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.27.707.2_Radio_20.3504.30 .089BU_3809.07.04.06_M_release_219276_signed
i tried the rom.zip extraction and renamed it to PG411MG.zip with the hope of the bootloader detecting and running it - it tried to install but failed -signature. I created a goldcard but not used this method yet as i had to format it and now i cant even connect to the PC -its as if it cant detect the device. I will try a ROM that is similar to my radio . But i cant connect to the Flyer -(adb- device not found)
Please help - ill gladly donate to a working solution. I dont know what else to do. I just want to get android working again passing the horrid HTC boot logo. i dont mind stock etc just need my flyer to work.
Been ROMing since HD2
UPDATE: SOLVED
none of the stock RUU I tried installing was successful because I had Unlocked the Bootloader.
All I needed to do was' fastboot oem lock' and it relocked. RUU will only install on locked bootloaders.
While still in fastboot I ran the RUU from my PC and it worked. Installing while tears of joy rolled down my tired eyes.
So I'm now on an older hboot and achieved S-off,rooted and made my flyer into a phone + Bluetooth.
Flash the stock rom
Get a guide on xda about it... Urs any flashing software and u will b alr9

[Q] Stuck in bootloop...

Hi,
i unlocked my Evo 3d the HTCdev.com way, al working fine and in tried to flash a new rom through CWM recovery (LeeDrOiD_3D_V5.3.0)
Now my unit is staying in a bootloop, the white HTC screens pops up for a few seconds and boots throught to the LeeDrOid bootscreen, you hear the sound for a second and it reboots again.
I Already tried to flash the boot.img extracted from the LeeDrOid manually, but it stays the same.
Did i overlooked something? Did i brick my unit? I dont know...
The following numbers pop up when i boot in the bootloader:
***Unlocked****
SHOOTER-U PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.53.0007
eMMC-boot
Radio: 11.25.3504.06
What to do? Or do i have a fancy paperweight now?
I think its because you are trying to flash a gingerbread rom. AFAIK its not possible to boot GB on 1.53 hboot. I would suggest trying an ICS rom
So i installed Yoda's ICS v5.1 and now the unit only boots till the white HTC screen and reboots on and on...
maybe if you list the things you tried i could help you more.
factory reset and wipe cache+delvik cache before installing rom?
manually flashed boot.img?
i would suggest getting s-off to save yourself all the hassle
How do i install S-OFF when i cannot fully boot the unit?
Yes, i tried to install Boot.img manually through ABD, but issue still persists.
S-off isnt something to install. I'd recommend you run an RUU and get beck to stock. After that look in the gsm development section you will find a thread for s-offing your phone. It involves the wire trick.

Which RUU should i download, which one do you recommend? And i can do this while connected with Fastboot, isnt it?

I had the very same issue, see my post here for some help http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897719
I think your hboot is the key; if your unlocked through HTC while on a GB rom then you are limited to GB roms, if you want ICS, you need to re lock, ruu the stock ICS rom, then unlock, then install the custom ICS rom.
I'm no expert but that seemed to fix my issue, i did take the extra step and get S-off, so i truly get full control of my phone.
His hboot is 1.53 which means he did update to ics. Relocking his bootloader and running an RUU should get him to boot into stock rom. Then maybe he can s-off.
There are so many people with 1.53 hboot having problems with every single rom. I didnt take the ota for this exact reason. Revolutionary hboot hasnt given me trouble with any rom.

I just checked the unlimited.io (JBear) website and their modified bootloader for the Evo 3D GSM on ICS is 1.53.5353 so it seems like they support the wire trick with the ICS update, but I agree that it would be better to start by flashing the ICS RUU.exe then HTC unlock and root before doing JuopunutBear.

[Q] **Relocked** ***Security Warning***

Hey everyone, ive run into a bit of a dilemma and im in need of some help. So a long while ago i rooted my girlfriends 3vo on sprint. im not sure what method i used but life came along and now we need to use the phone again after it sat unused for a year but i needed to unroot and return it to stock.
I found some tutorial explain how to unroot it which included using CMD and typing something along the lines of "fastboot lock oem". now the problem is something went wrong along the way and now the phone is stuck in fastboot mode. if i turn it off and turn it on it boots to fast boot. just a note; i believe i was able at some point to get it into recovery somehow if thats helpful (4ext) and i also remember it telling me there is no OS installed on the phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1512994 this seemed to be pretty close to my problem unfortunately it assumes slightly more technical knowledge than i have. im going to include everying my fastboot screen says from the top down to the controls of fastboot just in case its helpful.

Do i need to use a RUU or can i use a PMG to downgrade my phone?
I know what i did wrong but i found that after i did it,i relocked my device with a custom rom on it so now i don't know if i need to use a RUU or what. Btw i can't find the right RUU for my phone :/. Help
Here's where you guys can find the RUU. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2094402 (Click the link in the OP and then click "shooter" in the jumble of devices [xda won't let me link to it directly cous I'm a "noob"]) Just try and download the right version. I suggest using the .zip's just cous with .exe's you need a good USB connection and proper drivers and blah blah blah. BTW I repeat, please download the CORRECT version or else you might end up creating a very expensive paperweight.
thnaks for helping,but i still don't know what is the right one..since there isn't one with the same radio as my phone has..ofc i will use shooteru since i have a gsm phone but i dont know what radio..
