please please help me, i have twrp installed i heard 2.4 was not flashing properly so reverted back to 1.1.1...I go into bootloader then boot my recovery.img. then when im in TWRP i try to flash one of my roms and its not allowing it, I think its because of the s-on again?? it still says unlocked at the top of bootloader but s-on instead of s-off now. I have no operating system now and cant think of a way to fix this. please anyone with any ideas or solutions help me, ive exhausted my ideas. I use my phone all the time, so any help would be greatly appreciated, i'd pay you for help if I could.
Please let us know which device u have.

I dont know what Odin is. I have an HTC Evo 3d. Now my phone is not even turning on exactly like this guys: it wont let me post links yet but go to youtube and then search for: "Bricked HTC EVO 3D, not powering up, red light" and thats my current problem. am I just screwed?
sometimes i can get to bootloader but then s-on is still there so that seems like its preventing me from flashing roms.
What is Odin?
Thank you for the help.

Ok I got it to bootloader after removing the battery 50 times and putting it back in then doing the power/vol down. im in TWRP 2.4 because it lets me access my SD card. The problem i think is that when i did a full factory reset on my phone it turned s-on so my old roms are not working. so now im downloading the stock rom, going to put that in the roms folder and try to zip that sucker in, then do the s-off procedure again once I finally have an operating system again. I probably sound like a total noob but if anyone can offer advice or help along the line it would be appreciated. thank you
well I still cant install any ROMs. I cant do the s-off "wire trick" because apparently that requires an operating system. Will someone please help me out here. Why is it failing to install every ROM i have. I know i have the right stock ROMs. at the top of bootloader it says "Unlocked" and s-on, if that helps at all.. thanks for any help
sorry to keep posting but after reading the original root guide I used it turns out i never had S-off. So WHY cant I install any roms, every utility I use just says unable to install. I have tried multiple roms, and tried the one I had installed before, so I know for a fact that one is good. I have no operating system. the error message I keep getting has to do with md5 but I read thats not even a critical component. I tried extracting the boot.img from the rom, running that , then installing it. NO luck. Please someone with experience help. Or am I just screwed? Thanks for the help
bump, please help. why cant I flash a ROM, any rom, even ones I know work well because I have used them?
I fixed it, if anyone comes across this in the future. You have to have your bootloader RELOCKED to run a RUU. Maybe that is common knowledge but it sure evaded me. just fastboot oem lock then run the RUU and you are back to stock.
any one know how to fix QHSUSB_DLOAD caused after trying the s-off wire trick.

Hi everyone,
I'm really hoping someone can help me with getting my E3D S-off with the wire trick. Even though I've been a member on this site for a couple years, I never really did much on here because I haven't done much with my phone until now. So, I'm hoping that being a newbie, someone can help me...
Long story short, I've been waiting patiently until the official ICS update from Sprint to be able to root my phone and finally install a custom ROM without all the Sprint bloatware and finally have a clean, stock ICS ROM on my phone. For the past two days I've been trying to do the wire trick by following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1813818
It's just that my phone will NOT let me do it! I've successfully unlocked the bootloader on hboot 1.58 and rooted the phone with superuser. When I go to do the wire trick, after running JuopunutBear's Wire Trick, all I get is to the point where it says "Seconday Backup FAILED at Beginning!!" and just exits the program.
I've literally done everything. I read that it's caused by a custom ROM or having HTC Sync installed on my PC. The ROM I have is the stock Sprint ICS 4.0 ROM that was installed by the RUU. I've wiped my SD card and even used two other cards, and it STILL won't work. I have no idea what to do anymore. After two days of having a blank phone, I've just about given up. I know there's gotta be a way to do it, but I just can't figure it out. I can't find anything regarding this problem from anyone else on this site or anywhere on Google. People say they had the problem and it fixed itself, but I can't get past it. Can someone please help? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You should try flashing a stock GINGERBREAD ROM. The thing with JuopunutBear is that you need crucial files from GB. Unless they updated it, I may be wrong.
Instead of flashing an RUU, look for a full stock ROM for your phone.
Then it should work perfectly.
I did it on my GSM EVO 3D, but there was a better guide on here for it, however, it's gone now.
I wish you luck, comment back if it doesn't work.
I actually restored the original RUU which didn't work, and then flashed the PG86IMG.zip file for the ICS ROM and that didn't work either. I've gone through all the steps of unlocking and rooting multiple times, and it still gives me that backup message. I have no idea what else to do.
Also, the phone is new - Sprint replaced it under warranty for me because the bezel of my old one was coming loose which they said is a common problem, so they swapped it out with a fresh one for me. The only thing I can think of is maybe that daemon message I get when I start the fastboot? It says something like "Daemon not started. Starting on port 5037." Does the port have anything to do with it?
I'm gonna try flashing a stock Gingerbread ROM now. I'm downloading the 2.17.651.5 release - I think that's the official Gingerbread update from Sprint. I'll post back soon - thanks for your help.

Make sure you watch the screen on the phone until the prompts for superuser have appeared and been approved. Also, have you read through the JuopunutBear thread in the stickies of the development forum? There's a lot of information in there and a link to a good video by zedomax, and if that isn't enough to get you through it you can get some live help by logging into the IRC channel from the support page on the unlimited.io website.

I appreciate the help so far. I tried returning to a stock Gingerbread ROM to do the S-off trick since they thought maybe it had something to do with files from Gingerbread that weren't in the ICS ROM, but the phone won't let me do it. Running the official RUU fails and says it can't update the software, and trying to flash the PG86IMG.zip from the bootloader just ignores it - I boot the phone, it spends five minutes loading and checking, then just goes back to the menu. I read you can't flash an older firmware update over a newer one unless you have S-off, but since that's what I'm trying to get at, that obviously won't work.
So, I gave up and flashed the official RUU for ICS and it flashed fine and put me back at the stock Sprint software. Unlocked bootloader, rooted and tried the S-off again, and got the same problem. I'm giving up on it for the night but I'll research the stickies tomorrow at work and see what I can find and if anyone else might have had this problem. I don't feel like accepting the fact that there's no way to get S-off on this phone. Seems everyone else had no problems.
Thanks again for all your help so far!

JuopunutBear will work fine with the Sprint ICS 2.89 build installed, but make sure you use the version designed for that build.
Good luck!

Okay cool, just let me know. Thanks.
So I figured I would update on this but I'm sure no one really cares.
I FINALLY got S-off using the wire trick by installing a quick custom ROM and trying the process again. For some reason the guide I used said to use the stock untouched ROM but it didn't work for me, even though everyone else seems to have had luck.
So, after flashing a ROM quick through ext4 worked for me, and I flashed CoolROM with Sense 4.1. Looks good, but there's no 4G. I get full 4G coverage where I live, so I'm gonna kind of miss that. I was originally looking for a clean stock ICS ROM without Sense, but when I said this with Sense 4.1 I figured I'd give it a shot. Does anyone know of a stable ROM with working 4G and everything else? The whole reason I decided to root and get S-off was to finally remove all the Sprint bloatware, so I want a clean ROM. If anyone knows of a good ROM, I'd love to hear about it. Thanks!

Hello every one,
I dont mean to clutter up the forum with the same question but, believe me or not i did read through tones of post.. i just got more confused maybe because i am a "total noob." In any event, let me explain my issue. i am still trying to get my head around "ROM" "Kernal" "img" etc so please bare with me.
So, i had my evo rooted the very first time about 6 months ago with CWM Revolutionary and the installed ROM was SU-3.0 or something. Than Because of a physical problem i had to replace the phone and i tried rooting again, this time around i ended up installing su-2.1 or something but it had all kind of problems it kept restarting and wat not so i decided to change it to ICS from htcevohacks. this is when it rebooted and got stuck. i tried bunch of things but since i dont know wat am i doing its not helping.. my phone has Hboot 1.50 Unlock with revolutionary on it.. thats all i know about "For sure." Everything else i am confused and Uncertain about..
So far i have tried installing the same su files but they keep abording.
From Wiki. i have tried the recovery thing.. downloading the zip files PG86IMG-twrp-shooter-1.1.1.zip PG86IMG-twrp-shooter-1.0.3.zip rename them Started in recovery and it would say failed because the orignal file is older or something like that..
i know i shouldnt have mess with this since i didnt know wat i was doing but now that i am in a mess i need help.. and if anyone can help me i wold appreciate it.. i really need.. so please.
thanks,
Dennis
Are you s-on or s-off? Also, have you tried to flash 4ext recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1561999
Imagika FTW... with Tapatalk 2
Sorry forgot to mention .. its S- On iwill check out the link thanks appreciate the reply.
4ext recovery is definetely the choice for s-on users like yourself. The problem you are having is that if you just flashing roms straight from recovery and rebooting its not going to work. The reason for that is because other than 4ext recovery, most recoveries cannot flash the kernel to the boot partition while on S-on. That's where 4ext recovery comes in. It will let you flash kernels through smart flash thats incorporated in the recovery.
Heres the Thing.. i tried looking up the link posted above about 4ext but i am fairly confused about it... could you please tell me about what should or could i do at this point?? it appears as if, 4ext is something you download and install from "market" However my phone is not turning on at all. Meaning it doesnt go pass the White HTC screen.
How exactly do i install the 4ext.. or is there a "procedure list" or a "write" i can follow.. sorry for the trouble.. i am just Overwhelmed by all the information.
Bottom line here is that.. i have a "rooted phone" S-on "unlocked" with Revolutionary.
and when i try to load any ROM files its not working (get aborded") if not it would load successfully and then when it reboots its stuck on the whit screen.
if i am missing or leaving out information please let me know if not . wat can i do to start this from scratch..
ALSO, i read some posts about dealing with "bricked" phones but it looks like i woud need a Linx operation system which i dont have.
I'm a noob myself, but I've gotten into a similar situation myself where I was rooted and took an update over the air to the new ics Rom, and also tried flashing Roms from apps, and when my phone rebooted, it didn't go past the HTC screen, I was told I would have to load a new stock ruu. Which basicaly means you have to wipe the phone and install the stock rom from new.

Pretty sure you can't use an older version RUU on a newer software version, and AFAIK there's no updated RUU yet.

Ok, thanks all for the help! I guess all I can do it either contact HTC and see if they will offer me any advice on how I'm suppose to restore my phone that can't be restored by conventional methods or wait for 2.04 to be rooted. Cheers everyone.
Yea, you're trying to use a RUU that can't be used with the version you are on.
What you can do is boot into your bootloader (power off, then hold volume down+power when booting up) and try a factory reset in hboot. this usually will return the phone to "out of box" condition.

Not sure... I know someone in the CM Dev thread did it to regain data and I've seen a few others say they've done it. To the OP I suggest research a bit before doing it. If you find someone who had issues hold off on doing it.
Ok, so i tried factory reset from bootloader. The phone beings to reset. It shows me a progress bar, it gets about a quarter the way through and the phone reboots back into android with all my data and settings still intact. :/ I've contacted HTC on these issues I am having. If y'all have anything else I can try, please let me know, but I will update this thread with any helpful information that I get from HTC. Thanks!
Given that you're not rooted, is there any reason you don't want to just take it to Verizon? If they can't fix it in store I'd expect they'd just swap it out.
Click the link in my sig download the hboot that is version # 1.15.605.4, flash it via the instructions in the post, then try the RUU again... I've read on here that's how its done
So, I have gone through the whole process of rooting my phone, unlocking it. I have TWRP on it, Titanium backup (thankfully), Goo Manager. It is S-on. I have 2.09 Hboot. My TWRP-jewel is 2.5.0.0. Ok, now onto my question, I am trying to get CM-10 to load but it doesn't go any further than the load screen. No matter what I try. I have even tried switching to JellyBAM but all to no avail. Can someone offer me tips as to what I may have done or be doing wrong? Thanks in advance
[Q] trying to put CM10 on my rooted phone
Forgive me if I put this in the wrong group, but I feel this is probably the right one for it. I have Hboot 2.09. I have TWRP. I have S-on. I want to put CM10 with Gapps onto my phone but every way I have tried, CM10 just sits there and loops around, the longest being an hour. I figured some time was possible, but come on. Over on Google+, people are telling me to flash this and flash that, fastboot this or that. I have no idea what they are trying to say to me. I am loving learning all of this but I need a little more explanation than just flash something. I realize that flash has something to do with commands. I am running windows 8 if that helps on my laptop. My TWRP version is 2.5.0.0. I don't know if my phone has gone through the latest update or not. Thanks for any help you can give me!
You have to install the kernel separately from the ROM since you're S-on. Click the link in my sig for more info.
You most likely have the newest touch panel driver, so you can only use ROM's based off the latest OTA, software version 3.16. Your touchscreen won't work otherwise. You can gain S-off and downgrade your touch panel driver, at which point you can run AOSP ROM's like CM.

First of all you might be on the newest touch panel driver, and that's the first thing that gets you in trouble because aosp roms don't work with that, as of now, it might work later... Who knows... Secondly you need to flash the boot.img separately thru fastboot because your are s-on and on 2.09... To make your life easier try to get s-off either thru facepalm or dirty racun... That way you can flash any rom and also downgrade your touch panel driver to get aosp working on your phone... If you flash viper rom it has a senseless option so you can use nova and get stability and some sort of aosp look... Good luck!

Yes, S-off is the way to go if you want to run CM. Otherwise, try meanbean or viper or sharkie or any other sense based Rom. They should work fine.

ADB commands must be issued when the phone is mounted as media share not as fastboot. Connect your phone as if you were transferring files between it and your pc.

I do have it connected to the computer like that. Do you mean I have to go into TWRP and mount it that way? I tried it that way too. I downloaded and whole new android SDK to see if that is the problem. If not, I am going to factory reset my phone and start over. I can't imagine why I was able to root the phone, get it unlocked, but now I can't do anything else with it. Not even get adb commands to recognize it.

I know that I have been a particularly trying noob this week and I apologize. I tried to go back and thank the ones that helped me along the way and i did realize I double posted. I apologize for that too. So a big thank you!!!!!!!!!:good:
Message is for user tabidee tho if anyone else can help..koo..but I doubt u want tow
This is for tabidee hey I was reading ur stuff on xda developers and I have a question. If u can help if not its cool. Ok so i got my sprint evo and I went to try to root it. I went thru a process that with the steps combined with htcdev site got me to say unlock my bootloader. I used hoot 2.09 and I was supposed to flash this pimg175 zip to i guess install a recovery. Well that won't work at all... I cant get my s on switched to s off and so i am stuck with according to the hoot screen a tampered, unlocked with s on, unrooted phone. I am so confused with all the steps and files I had to download, rename and save to various folders that I gave up. With my phone at its current state what do I do next? I deleted all the files from the day I unlocked it but if you can explain to me... And explain like if I was a five year old cuz I'm that dumbfounded on this subject... But if u can maybe walk me thru the rest of the process or walk me thru a undoing of what I done so far. I'm lisa. My email is [email protected]
Check out the link below. It's a GUI for rooting and has everything you need to get your phone rooted. You'll need to install the recovery first then superuser, which will give you root.

I had to do moonshine with wubi lunbuntu linux terminal. Rooting is easy u do it from google play look for 4.2.2 roms that are ok with s-on. mean is easy.
so I still have to connect my sh*t to da pc and go thru some more steps with this lunbuntu thing before though rite? BTW... the HTC software update won't complete itself so I'm still 4.1 I think

Hey, So i have a problem, I tried rooting my phone, and i guess i messed up somewhere, I lost my OS, and didn't create a backup because i'm stupid and didn't realize this could happen. I found a thread, relating to a similar problem, but a different phone so i relocked the phone with Hasoon's tool. Now i cannot find a proper RUU For my phone. I have an HTC One X+, Radio is 2.14.55.11, And the stock image is 1.20.661.1 or something. All i want now, is to return to stock. I've tried the RUU's from androidfiles . org/ruu/?developer=EvitaRE But no luck. It has some sort of error nearing the end. At the moment i can't find the error, as my phone is under %30, So after it reaches about 70, i'll try again and post the error. I'm getting pretty scared, as i'm new to this, and i don't want to lose my phone. Any help would be appreciated.
I don't really know what else to post, besides the radio, stock image file thing, and that it's the north american phone i guess, EvitaRE. The HBOOT is 1.40.0000 and it's stuck at the loading screen, 'HTC Quietly Brilliant'
Factory Reset's do not work, and push me back into the loading screen. It's in infinite boot, i guess, where i power the phone down and it just boots up again without me doing anything.
I dont know where i went wrong during the rooting process, as when Hasoon did it in his video tutorial, It worked out perfectly. but for me not so well, After flashing and unlocking bootloader etc, i clicked perm root, and i couldn't find the SuperUS or something, so i went to power the phone down into bootloader and it said i had no OS. I don't know what i did, and all i hope is that my phone can be somewhat revived so i can use it.
Thank you for reading, and any helpful information would be just appreciated.

EDIT: Extremely sorry, but i have found other posts about this, but i can't seem to understand the fix, so if possible, please dumb it down for me! I'm extremely sorry for even attempting the rooting in the first place :S

Unlock the bootloader.
Install TWRP
Sideload a custom ROM
Flash that ROM's kernel.

Thank you, will try when I get home. Is there any roms you might recommend?
EDIT: Thank you, extremely. I honestly thought my phone was done for, after someone told me if ruu's didn't work i was screwed, guess i was talking to the wrong people. Thank you very, very much! After Sideloading, my phone booted up with venomXl rom, and works perfectly!
You are welcome.
BTW Sense 5 is here thanks to baadneez's insertcoin

I think you are not flashing the kernel.
Also - after flashing kernel, wipe cache and dalvik...
