[Q] s-off with 3.17.651 and Hboot 2.51 - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Hello everyone,
I am currently running this version rooted with S-On. I have been trying a long time to get S-off to work on my device, but I cannot find the proper method. If someone can direct me to which s-off method works with 3.17.651 and hoot 2.09, that would be great!. Thanks for your help.

The only one that would work for me was moonshine. Have you tried that yet?

I am on 3.17.651 and I was not able to successfully S-OFF with Moonshine.

I forgot I was on 3.16. You could always go back to 3.16 s-off and then flash 3.17. A lot of stuff to do though.

If you have unlocked your bootloader and have a custom recovery installed, flash this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2127947&highlight=3+16+651+3, then use moonshine to s-off, then flash http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2468418.

Restarting
When i try to flash the first .zip file it goes half way then the phone restarts and gets stuck on the splash screen am i supposed to use deodexed or odexed?

You have to flash the kernel separately from the ROM.

You don't have to be S-off to run CyanogenMod. You need to extract the boot.img from the ROM and flash it via fastboot commands in the bootloader. Then you can flash the ROM itself from recovery. I explain this pretty clearly in my guide.

Have you tried DirtyRacun (along with the BabyRacun process)? That might be your only bet.

I tried to do this (same boat with 3.17) and BabyRacun won't run because the version is above 3.16 and it DirtyRacun errors because of a version mismatch

Can anybody help ???
Do you have an RUU for the build that contains that hboot? You should be able to pull it out of the .exe or .zip version of the RUU, then repackage it to flash separately.
That's what I've done for hboots for the Evo 3D CDMA.

If you have a zip version of the RUU, you need to take the android-info.txt and hboot file out of the root of that zip and re-zip then into a file called PG86IMG.zip, then flash that file from your bootloader (assuming you are S-OFF). If you are not S-OFF, the only way to change the bootloader is to flash the entire RUU, or change it in the process of getting S-OFF.
If the RUU is an .exe file, mpgrimm2 has instructions on how to extract the files you need in this post.

I believe the hboot that you want is the original hboot that came with the evo on rogers, how do I know? I'm with rogers and when I unlocked my phone through rev. That was the number on my phone.

downgrabe my hboot 1.53.0007 to 1.49.0008 i am unlocket , rooted and s-on
i have the RUU .exe for the hboot 1.49.0008 i have tried installing it but i get an it fails beacuse my bootloader is updated (the only reason why i want to istall the RUU is to downgrade my hboot)
so now i dont know how to downgrade my hboot
ps sorry for my bad english
Go s-off, don't waste your time, most of the new roms require s-off to flash the firmware, there's a thread for doing the wire trick, look for it

Going S-OFF with JuopuntBear (wire trick) is definitely good advice. I was able to flash an RUU with hboot 1.50 over a configuration that had hboot 1.58 on an E3D CDMA model using the RUU.exe for the earlier release, but that was with S-OFF.
I have a thread in this forum about modifying the Main Version (mainver) of the phone to allow flashing of earlier hboots and RUU's, but I haven't tested that with S-ON and you will be better off in the long run getting S-OFF. Then you can flash any RUU or hboot you want.

Great, so moral of the story just ask a simple question and you will find your answer, flash away.Just be very careful with flashing kernels for your gsm phone, there's a few that are floating around which are problematic

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.

Yeah but the instructions state to not do it with 1.22 (what i'm currently on) and only to do it with 1.13. Or am i mistaken?

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.

Try to downgrade using the instructions to get s-off, once yo get to the 3.15 version, download the 3.15 RUU, follow the instructions on unlimited.io, I've heard that you can use windows is just not supported by the devs you re on your own, it's real easy, just take off the "sudo./" part on each command and you hold be good to go, good luck!

[Q] How to Remove Cyanogenmod & TWRP from HTC EVO 4G LTE

Hey Everyone,
This is my first actual post on xda but these forums have helped me with many things that have come up with during my time with Android
I recently installed CM 10.1.3 RC2 for my HTC EVO 4g LTE and couldn't find a good guide to going back to the stock software that I had before. Nothing is wrong with CM but I just prefer sense for this device.
To install CM I unlocked my bootloader with HTC DEV and flashed twrp 2.4.1.0 according to CM's guide. I installed GooManager for access to the twrp bootloader but from their I'm confused as to how to revert back to stock htc sense. I downloaded the latest RUU for my device so if anyone can help me out that would be great. Thanks.

You can flash a Sense ROM. There are quite a few to choose from. If you want to go back stock and unrooted, you can run a RUU. If you're on the latest Hboot, you'll have to S-off and run VipeRUU to get you back to stock, since there is no RUU for the latest OTA.
Also, there is no such thing as a "TWRP bootloader". TWRP is your recovery

No. The RUU is run from your computer. Custom ROM's are installed through TWRP.
Download this:

Then flash through recovery. It will get you back to stock.

If he's on the latest OTA and flashes that ROM his touch screen won't work...............
He needs the 3.16 software version, not 3.15.

Will flashing that through recovery lock my bootloader too?

No. It's a "stock" ROM, not a RUU. If you truly want to go back completely stock, get S-off and then use the tool in the link below. If you simply want a stock-feeling Sense ROM, check out the development threads-there are plenty.
Here is the link to VipeRUU. You must be S-off to use it.

It would also be helpful if you posted your Hboot and radio (baseband) version.

Just use the VipeRUU and don't mess with your phone as its happening. ( you won't be able to use it for 30mins+ during the process.

[Q] Restore to stock software

I recently got an HTC Evo 4g LTE used and it came with Cyanogenmod 10.1.3. I thought that this would be nice, as I have several friends who use Cyanogenmod. However, I can't activate the phone with my carrier (Ting) unless I have the stock software. I found vipeRUU, and believe that that will restore my phone. However, I just want to make sure that the versions of the software on my phone and vipeRUU match and are compatible so that I don't wreck my phone. What do I need to check on my phone to make sure that vipeRUU will work? I'd be happy to post any info about my phone; I haven't because I'm new at this and don't know what info you need. Also, I have twrp installed if that makes a difference.
Or should I just use DirtyRacun to RUU?
If you are S-off, then VipeRUU will work. There is also a 3.17 RUU that was recently released that you can run if you're S-on. Really, though, all you need to do is flash a Sense ROM and you should be able to accomplish everything you need to.

Just to be clear, it doesn't matter what hboot version I am? Or anything else's version? And out of curiosity, would any version of the RUU work or do I need to use the newest?
Thanks for your help!

Hboot doesn't matter, no. I would use the newest RUU.

Thanks for replying! I did that and try to update but when it turned back on, it went to the twrp screen. Or should I do it manually?
