I have the EVO 3D with the 2.89 RUU installed with HBOOT 1.5858 S-OFF
Is there anyway I can put a JB ROM on my phone?
I've read that JB is not compatible with 1.5858.
Downgrade to the 1.04 ENG Hboot (found in the lens_flare edition miui thread) and you'll be good to go

hboot downgrade
Well I've also read that I can downgrade my hboot to 1.4, but that I have to brick it to do that. In other forums people talk like downgrading to 1.4 is simple. When I got the 1.58 upgrade it updated all my radio filestoo.. So I'm wondering if those radioh files are stored on the same partition as hboot. If they are I know how to flash my hboot with fastboot flash command so that would be simple.. Any help, pointers or info would be greatly appreciated.

hboot 1.04
First thanks again.. Do you know if I can just flash this hboot w/o bricking the phone. A lot of people are saying that the phone needs to be bricked to downgrade.

Yes, since youre s-off, all you need to do is find a copy of the hboot ( pg86img.zip) and place it on your sdcard, and boot into the bootloader, the phone does everything else from there on its own

I had my phone flashed to MetroPCS and the guy updated my hboot to 1.5 I saw a thread a couple months back about being able to downboot my hboot from 1.5 to 1.4 with S-off but a search didn't help me find anything. Anyone know the steps/point me in the right direction?

I've answered this a few times on this board regarding the CDMA version of the EVO 3D. I'll quote from my previous posts as I don't think anything has changed. Please post back if you still have questions!

Here are a few reasons why we aren't able to downgrade the Hboot, like was done on the EVO Shift twice:
[Q] Downgrading HBOOT 1.5 --> 1.4

1st time around: shift didnt 'have nand write lock on the hboot partition, hence being able to temp root and directly flash eng hboot to the hboot partition.
2nd time around: shift didn't have the nand write lock on the misc partition, hence being able to temp root and flash a lower version to the misc partition then hboot would allow a downgraded version of software to be loaded.
esseentially it seems as if htc was doing the bare minimum to protect the shift from being unlocked/rooted as all these methods were known and some were used on the HTC EVO prior to the shift software releases.
this has been covered a few times on the forums, but i hope rehashing old ideas/attempts might spark new ones! sometimes it only takes a slight tweak to an old method for it to bypass a patch and work! hope that helps!

If your hboot was soff before he upgraded, then it would still be soff, so if you're on hboot 1.5 with s off, then you can downgrade. If you're s on, then you're stuck.

Yes my S-Off flag is still showing in the Bootloader
I know downgrading from 1.5 with S-on is currently impossible but I know it can be done with S-off
Should've clarified I guess
Edit: yes it is CDMA

I may be the only one that doesn't have any problems with 1.5. With joeykrims flash gui, you can do pretty much anything 1.4 can do. :shrug:
Man. Wish I have s-off
will 3.6 mean rom have the new radios automatically or at least an easy way to install for us noobs with s-on
No, radios are seperate from ROMS
If you arent on H-boot 1.12 the only way to get the new radio is the RUU/OTA, and you dont want to do that because then you'll have hboot 1.19

They dont have 1.12....
If you are on h-boot 1.15 or later you CANNOT get the new radios without running the OTA or the RUU.
But you DONT want to do that.

You are trying to flash the wrong file. You need the file for "recovery". The one you are trying to use is for bootloader flashing.

You should s-off that bad boy and everything thing else will be easy from here on out
You need soff to flash radios separately
I went back and read many threads including capt throwback's. I tried to flash the S-On hboot 1.12 radio and kept getting errors. So today I downloaded it straight to my phone instead of transferring from my laptop. It worked. My radio is updated with S-On. I'm going to do some more reading before I try to S-Off. Is lazy panda the only/best way to do it?

Im not understanding you but it sounds like you are trying to downgrade maybe, not possible at this time. Many people have already bricked trying to do it.
Hello.
I used the wire Trick.
My hboot Version is 1.53.0007
S-off.
I would like to downgrade my hboot to 1.49. And use revolutionary to unlock.
Can i downgrade to that hboot and flash newest Radio/ Firmware without Problems?
Why do i want to do that?
Becouse it is the only way to flash cm Roms.
After i do that can i flash ics custom Roms without Problems?
Does someone has a Download Link for 1
.49. Hboot ?
Sent Form my HTC EVO3D using my big fat fingers.
I think you can do that (I'm CDMA so ours is a little different). You could do the write trick and then downgrade your hboot after you get s-off. I think that would be easier.

Duh. I misread your OP. Afaik, that hboot will allow you to install the ICS custom roms too, but you may want to wait for a GSM user to confirm. Or try it and if not, you can always revert back. The beauty of being s-off.

It's an engineered hboot for more fastboot cmds, find it in original android forum.

Y don't u just do the lazypanda s-off now since you are stock. U don't need fresh rom to do it. The new base is installed when u install a new rom on the new base. Just flash radios separately which u can do once s-off or just being on 1.12 I believe.

Why would you downgrade hboot and then run ruu to install the latest hboot? If you downgraded to 1.12 you should have no problem running lazy panda. Am I missing something?
On unlimited's site it says the rom requirements to run lazy panda is 1.13 RUU. I was confused on that as well but it hasn't been successful. I'm currently 1.12 hboot with 1.22 software version. So at this point just run the lazy panda?
Someone in mac's development thread stated they were able to run lazy panda on 1.12. You should ask about it in that thread and see if anyone can help
i ran it out of the box no RUU just ran it
Was that you that mentioned it then? I was having a hard time remembering who mentioned it lol
WHOO HOO! I'm S-Off!!! Ok am I finally ready for customer roms etc and I guess i need to flash radios of course.
edit: Thanks guys!
Let me know what customer roms u install. Those sound interesting.
