AOSP ROMs wont boot on hboot 1.4. youd have to get S-Off and downgrade. Its probably not booting cuz you didnt turn smart flash on 4ext reccovery. If you dont have the recovery install it. 4ext.net Acheiving s-off is easy. Use the wire trick.

OK thx bro ibwoupd thank but im out thanks for today lol I will thank it tomorrow n but I have hboot 1.58.0000 what Rom will work for that or do I have to down grade to 1.3?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
No problem. If you want to use the latest ICS kernel that you would want to stay on 1.58. If you want AOSP ROMs then you would have to downgrade to 1.4. If you want to downgrade you are going to have to get s-off.

Just to clarify a typo, you need a non 1.58 hboot to boot aosp jb ROMs. I recommend 1.4 as Kevin does. Have you seen ramjet's easy guide to s-off?

That depends on what ROM you want to run. Some current Sense ROM's like Viper3D and Cool ICS won't boot without the 1.58 or JuopunutBear 1.58.5858 hboot installed.

I do think it is phone dependent. Some people are able to boot ICS on the 3d with 1.5 s-on and others get nothing but bootloops. Maybe your first phone was more forgiving than this one.

Just posted about mildly the same issue along with the S-OFF 'Wire Trick.' I assumed the ICS ROM's were bootlooping because of S-ON so I used the 'Wire Trick' to obtain S-OFF.

EDIT: Just flashed MeanROM and it worked perfect after obtaining S-OFF and the phone claiming to be 'LOCKED.' Do the Wire Trick and you'll be fine

I'm on hboot 1.58.5858 s-off. I did.the wire trick and used the custom hboot. I tried flashing cm10 and I got a boot loop.
My question is if I change to hboot 1.4 will cm10 boot and which hboot is better?
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D using xda app-developers app
Yes and 1.4.
The 1.58 hboot causes bootloops on CM Roms. You need to downgrade to 1.4 which is simple since you are s-off. It really is a good hboot as you can flash anything except the new HTC kernel.

Afaik, there are no benefits that anyone's found to running the new HTC kernel over the vm leak kernel. There are other kernels like Mac that are nice, but they run on the older hboot too.
The thing is, you can go back to 1.58 anytime you want since you are s-off.

Another con is you can't update your firmware unless you relock and take the OTA or hope a recovery flashable zip comes along
So if your hboot was s-off, how is it any different than s-on? You still have to run the RUU to go back to stock then get the OTA right? Or are you talking about some other OTA?

There are Firmware zips available right now for 3.15 that can be flashed in the bootloader but you must be S-OFF to flash them.Just flash and everything is updated except hboot,kernel,and stock recovery.

I have tried many Roms on this phone and I finally have s-off jbear. And so far nothing pleases me to the point where il use it everyday lol.. I got YAS4.v9. (Which is my favorite so far)Yesterday and it actually booted now that I have s-off but the WiFi doesn't work (when I try to enable it, it says error) no matter what kernel I flash with the Rom. I tried all 3 , stock, mirage, and buttered toast...no luck. On the page of yas4 it said hboot 1.58 recommended but after doing jbear s-off last night it changed my hboot to 1.57.5757 maybe that's the problem? I used to be on 1.58.0000 but with s-on yas4 never worked. If anyone has a solution to fix the WiFi error on this awesome Rom (YAS4.V9. please let me know) So now I am back to the stock ruu with the backup I made. If there are other awesome roms you have and liked please let me know. I would also prefer sense 4 roms but whatever works, works!!! Thanks for any help.

On the sense 4 Rom you have to do something with WiFi direct, don't know exactly I didn't play with it much. You were on the right track by flashing a kernal, but it won't help on that rom
If your going to flash anything other than sense ics, you will want to switch to hboot 1.50.5050
Once u switch to that hboot you can flash gb, jb, miui and some ics. Just make sure they are for cdma
I would recommend the hood pope
4.3 Rom. It is nice!
But there are a ton of roms and everyone has their preference.

Well i just tried flashed the 4.3 version. It booted successfully but as soon as the pull ring screen appears my phone just completely shuts off and reboots and it wont stop...So once again i flashed my stock backup. Do i have to be on hboot 1.50.5050 for this rom to work?
I guess I should explain when you switch the hboot 1.50 you will not be able to boot some roms. If you flash the wrong rom it could boot loop. so a good rom to flash would be butterz sense. I'm pretty sure it works on all hboots.
once you flash the ROM you need to change your hboot by flashing a pg86img.zip through bootloader
You do this by placing this file on the root of your SD card and rename PG86Img.zip
https://db.tt/qS7iQe0y
Reboot into bootloader and accept the update you will then need to boot into the Rom and delete or rename the PGI
86IMG.ZIP from your sd using a file explorer program
Reboot back to bootloader ensure that your HBOOT has changed to 1.50 then you can proceed to flash gingerbread or jelly bean roms, just make sure to backup before you do anything

I guess I should explain when you switch the hboot 1.50 you will not be able to boot some roms. If you flash the wrong rom it could boot loop. so a good rom to flash would be butterz sense. I'm pretty sure it works on all hboots.
once you flash the ROM you need to change your hboot by flashing a pg86img.zip through bootloader
You do this by placing this file on the root of your SD card and rename PG86Img.zip
https://db.tt/qS7iQe0y
Reboot into bootloader and accept the update you will then need to boot into the Rom and delete or rename the PGI
86IMG.ZIP from your sd using a file explorer program
Reboot back to bootloader ensure that your HBOOT has changed to 1.50 then you can proceed to flash gingerbread or jelly bean roms, just make sure to backup before you do anything

Ok i might flash my hboot. But does the original rom you told me to get (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551360) Work on hboot 1.57.5757? All i wanted to know is if i needed the hboot 1.50 or is there another reason why it restarts? Im not in a boot loop. The phone boots but as soon as the unlock screen appears it will shut off and restart.
Yes, that needs 1.50

Soff won't change. You essentially got Soff so you could change hboots.
The op of a rom should say what hboot works.
If it doesn't say, general rule is
Ics = 1.57 or up
Anything else = 1.50 or below

lol..I wish i could find a way to flash this kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1866375) then i could oc the cpu to 1.9. What kernel do you use.. I would use the mac one but with the download link they supplied its not a kernel size...Its like over 100mb? that makes no sense..I just want my phone perfect. Hmm im guessing you have your phone all nice and tidy- What are you running? Kernel, rom, hboot, recovery?
I change often
Mirage is a great kernel imo
Right now I'm running the ics version of zr3d-XL. I'm on hboot 1.50
As long a you have a good backup, flash away and only do 1 tweak or add on at a time. Sooner or later you will Bork your phone....but with a good backup, you can usually save yourself pretty quick

O..well I flashed this gb Rom and it is very light and fast. But I tryed to flash mirage kernel and my phone wouldn't boot. I'm guessing its only for ics. I'm starting to think I should have bought the HTC EVO 4g LTE. I like this one but coming from the HTC inspire i thought it would be flawless with most games (cause that's what I like to do) and it still seems laggy. Try downloading arcane legends from the app store and tell me if it lags at all. It's an mmo and when I'm in an area with a lot of people it will lag. But the thing is when I'm playing on my friends LG motion which has the same specs as the HTC EVO 3d, except the motion has a 3.5" screen or something like that. It never lags at all. And all games seem flawless.. u could even try running nenamark 2 on your phone and let me know what you get. I got about 49fps once. You can get it from the playstore. P.s what kernels work with gb? Mirage dosent boot. I also tryed buttered toast non working either.

I'm not sure about gb kernels.
I'll try your games later if I get some time.
Mirage is for ics, but he has a jb kernel too.

Hmm. Does jb work good on this phone? Lol...I just want an awsome Rom. My favorite Rom for the HTC inspire was xgs-series ics Rom and in the armora installer there was an option of themes. And I chose the galaxy s iii theme and it was an exact replica of it. Il look up some jb roms now.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
Yes jb works ok, you might need to change apns to have mms working but its easy.
Follow these instructions here

And here is the latest jb Rom, you need hboot 1.50
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2400838
I played that game and didn't notice any glitches or lag, but I was on WiFi...
As for the test I got
41.7fps...on ics zr3d xl
As for themes! Once you flash the jb Rom, go to the store and look for cm 10.1
Themes, there are a ton:thumbup:
