[Q] Downgrade software/hboot dunno - HTC EVO 3D

Hey, guys.
Recently I wanted to root and flash a custom rom on my EVO 3D. I did pretty great on my previous phone (HTC Desire/Bravo). Had tried almost every single ROM (4.0+)
I looked on the internet for the info to root EVO 3D. In the result I got *UNLOCKED* but S-On. I don`t know if I just missed that part or it wasn`t included. Superuser didn`t worked, couldn`t flash any recovery any way I wanted. Basiclly I got dry butt-fked.
Now I am *RELOCKED*
SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT - 1.53.0007
eMMC-BOOT.
The problem is, that all tutorials for flashing a custom ROM requires GingerBread instead of ICS. How can I downgrade to GB? Or maybe I can root, turn S-Off and flash recovery whitout downgrading to GB?

I was on ICS as well and was able to flash a custom/rooted rom. For most of the most ROMs you need to downgrade your HBOOT though. It doesn't work with modern ROMs.

It is the "wire trick" which I cannot use, because I dont have those 2 holes. Must be because I am GMS not CDMA
I am browsing youtube for HBOOT downgrade tutorials. Maybe you can help with that?

I'm on a Rogers GSM model and I used the wire trick, took quite a few tries.

How did you did that? I mean, I watched zedomax`s tutorial, but he had no SIM and 2 holes, where I have nothing but plastic.

Mine looks like this.

Yep, he is right. It doesn't matter if you are on GSM or CDMA, the wire trick works for both Just look at the picture (which is btw. also in the step-by-step instruction) and follow the steps in the tutorial. It might take a while before you get the timing right, but it'll work!

[Q] Diasarmed Toaster Rom with S-On

Hi,
I'm asking here as I can't post in developement itself (2 Posts only)
Is it possible to install this rom with S-On? I had to switch to KingCobra, because DT was bootlooping. But KingCobra seems to be dead.
Sorry if this was already answered before.

You cannot flash DT with S-On because you will need to downgrade your hboot to a compatible one (I don't know if you're CDMA or GSM). That's why it is bootlooping.
GSM. Thanks. Is revolutionary still in active developement for Hboot 1.53xx? Most downgrades seem to be a pain in the ass
I do not know if you know about this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1743466 Follow method A,B and D to get S-off. But its a great alternative if you don't want to wait on revolutionary to make a s-off tool.

You cannot flash in bootloader if you are S-On.

Some s-on users it worked...see link
It is a bit ambiguous though. if you see the last page praveenkv1988 says he actually did the wire trick before trying this. No one actually says he did this with s-on they just started from there
If you try it you'll have to do it on your own risk. its untested so you should tread lightly

Sorry, but this is not the way to run up your post count.
Maybe if you said what you have installed, what you are trying to do, and what you have tried so far someone could actually help you.
And there's no need to open two threads simultaneously unless what you are looking for in each is totally unrelated, and there's no way to tell that at this point.

Relocking the bootloader will not update it to a different version. If you did the relock to flash an RUU that will update the bootloader to the stock level associated with the RUU and you will have to HTC unlock it, flash a custom recovery, then root the stock ROM or flash a custom rooted ROM.
I suggest rooting the stock ROM then doing the JuopunutBear wire trick to gain S-OFF before flashing custom ROM's to make everything much easier. There are guides to do all these thing that you can find if you use the advanced search mode for these forums and scan only titles for the topics you need.
ramjet73
I guess people should learn to give as much info as possible
Well here is the link to downgrade your hboot to 1.49 which on GSM phones, allows you to flash any romhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32032629

Click on "HTC EVO 3D" next to the "home" icon and right below "PORTAL" in the upper left hand corner of this page, then search titles as indicated in my last post. You should have enough information to get started for what you need to do.
Sorry, but if you can't find what you need at this point then you probably shouldn't be worried about root and S-OFF.

More information? I'm going to guess you flashed a rom that's incompatible with your hboot. It hard to say though without any information on your phone or the rom you're having trouble with.

You're new here, so welcome! Let me tell you what we need to know. Firstly, are you rooted? S-on or s-off? What hboot are you running? What ROM are you trying to flash?
I have evo S-ON HBOOT 1.53.007, and i can sucessfully flash 60% of roms at xda (to flash that 60% you must have 4extrecovery touch with SmartFlash). downgrading HBOOT is too risky :laugh:

If you do bootloader unlock, downgrading HBOOT lasts for 4 secs or something like that xD. And you can install 100% (149% in Russia xD) of ROMs..

If your in a boot loop, just flash another ROM.
Or, you can go S-OFF. It's quite easy if you follow the wire trick.
Wire trick? I wanted to downgrade HBOOT but i cant find any good guide , correct me if i am wrong -> To downgrade HBOOT you must brick your device and then unbrick? Guide to downgrade

I'd follow ramjet's wire trick guide. It's really the easiest way to s-off now. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1889438

I would do what coal said and do the wire trick. It's pretty easy and far less scary than bricking your phone on purpose.
This video is good to watch and you'll see how simple it really is.

i also have the same problem, help would be appriciated.
i asked for help myself and some guy provided me some link to a website to get ur hboot downgraded and than get s-off but works only for linux, followed the tutorial and it relocked my bootloader,wiped my whole phone (not sd card) and recovery....so only thing that was left was bootloader(the white screen) no android was or could be run at that moment. i struggled a lot to get my phone functioning and make it work. NEVER BUY HTC!...if u plan to play with it and put some custom roms and want to get updated dont buy it....so guess that makes htc unwanted in whole community...
please list the steps you did and the current state of your bootloader (hboot, s-on/off etc). did you perform the wire trick to get s-off?

I am not sure what to do an in what order.
Thanks guys.
Splash screen is only for those who installed a custom one.
Just follow the instructions that pertains to your method of achieving s-off

I have the same phone as you. It is a dev phone. I have someone that wants to buy it but wants it back to stock. And like you I can't find a method to bring mine back to stock s-on.
Any ideas anyone?

I've used this guide quite a few times when I've wrecked my phone, it's pretty straight forward. Just remember to flash the 1.15 hboot before trying to run the RUU or it won't work.

How will these methods work with monarubo s-off? My DNA is a dev phone like the op has. If this method would work I would use one of those methods. But I don't see my soft method. I used those on my other DNA, just wanted to make sure one of those methods would work without borking my phone.

Monarudo is just the device code name
You'd be ok following the face palm method for s-on I'd imagine
