Rooting, 3.30, and other problems

Ok. I just got my EVO Tuesday and while I cannot confirm for sure that i had 3.30 to begin with I am pretty sure I did.
Not knowing that the guide i was following to root the device was for an older version I attempted to root, and bricked the phone. I managed to restore the phone using "RUU_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.29.651.5_Radio_2.15.00.09.01_NV_1.77_CNV_release_150224_signed.exe" and I was back to normal....or so i thought
Now the camera/camcorder does not work. I am assuming that my phone was 3.30 and the 3.29.651 I am on now doesnt speak to the camera the same way. It was rumored the 3.30 builds had camera fixes so this makes sense.
Here are my actual questions, with number 1 being the biggest and most important to me at the moment:
1. How do i get back to the 3.30 version the phone came with? IS there a RUU similar to what i used for 3.29 to restore the phone? Where can i get this?
2. If i cant get back to 3.30, is there any way to fix the camera?
3. How can I successfully root 3.29.651? Ive tried every guide i have found here, unrevoked 3, and the one touch rooter programs, but none seem to work. They all fail applying the radio image with FAIL-PU
I appreciate any support and thanks in advance to everyone who can help

Is it a 0004 hardware?? If it is then it came w 3.30 pre installed. Idk how another rom can break the cam i think its the kernel that plays a roll w the cam.. i could be wrongg tho. Try flashing to a 3.30 build rom theres plenty around. I suggest calk rom or go bare bone stock its over by babiboi thread, two versions deodexed and odexed see what u find bro
Sent from my phone.. I think using EViO???

I got my phone yesterday and also had a hell of a time rooting...try the "Sprint Lovers" dated 11/11, its the one that got me through it...gotta place on sdcard and use hboot...wish I could be more helpful but rooting EVO is nothing like a Hero....

Do you have a link to this rom? Can I install this if i am not rooted? I have not been able to root to get to any custom rom

my hardware version is 0003
when i run unrevoked 3 it says rooting success, but here are the last few lines before it fails:
this was triumph
rebooting
when bootloader starts choose hboot usb ----- never goes to bootloader after this restart goes right to phone
i reboot it manually and choose hboot usb
running pre reboot sequence
waiting for reboot
internal error, couldnt find misc
or this happens
scanned a lot of files fast
rebooting
bootloader starts, choose hboot usb
waiting for hboot to be ready
running preboot sequence
waiting for reboot
running root
waiting for root
this was a triumph,reboots to andriod desktop while program says when bootloader starts choose hboot usb
reboot phone manually
waiting for hboot
communication with phone unexpectantly inturrupted, try again

I just replaced my busted EVO for a new one. Has the new 3.30 in it, hardware is 003. After rooting I lost camera/video due to the PC36IMG I had used while rooting. I installed Myns Warm 2.2 rev3 and got camera/video back, so far that's the only one I can get it on. Just for SnG's I changed out kernels to Kings, and sure enough lost camera and vid. Reflashed 2point2 rev3 with stock HTC kernel and back to working cam. Hopefully this will help. I haven't tried Sprint Lovers yet, but I would imagine it would work the same as Myn's. Any other rom I have run (MIUI _CM6.1) no camera again.

what hboot version do you have?
to find out power off your phone, then hold the volume down and power your phone should boot up to fastboot it should say on the top left corner what your hboot version is.

its because the software is 3.30
posted on unrevoked twitter site
3.30 Evo folks -- XDA has a solution for you in the interim; we'll package it up nice and clean when we get a break from work & school.

Finding out my RUU version

Sup,
I was just wondering if there is a way to figure out which ruu version my phone came with. I'm all rooted and aint goin back if Idont have to but just in case something goes wrong and I have to unroot. Thanks in advance.
Evo - Myn 2.2 RLS 3 - Clockwork - HBoot .76 - Netarchy 4.2.1 CFS HAVS

RUU's are an exe file that basically flashes things to your phone instead of recovery. if your rooted all you need to know is you never take any OTA's and you will never lose root, just flash the updated ROM of choice. The only reason you would really need to even have an RUU is if you wanted to lose root

Yeah I just been seeing people having problems going back to stock with some RUUs. And I seen around quite a bit that if you use the exact ruu that came with your phone you wont have any issues. Maybe I dont have to but rather take the "safer" route. So I rooted a long time ago and have no idea what ruu I was on. This is what I do know about my stock phone.
Hboot 0.93
Hardware Ver. 0003
Radio 2.15.00.07.28
Oh wait my phone was originally 2.1 then I did the froyo update then that was my info. So actually im noy sure about.my original build...damn...any help anyways?

You'll probably want to use the 3.29. The 3.70 may work for you but it's probably safer to use the older one and then let the phone update itself afterward.

Yeah that seems right..thanks for the help

[Q] Three UK latest Desire rom

Hi,
Please if someone has a Three UK branded Desire phone could make me a nandroid rom backup? I cant find any stock Three UK rom only old one for AMOLED screen and i have to send back the phone.
Details:
BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.93.0001
MICROP-051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
Thank you!!Please help me guys!

Nandroid would still be rooted so would still be breaking the warranty. Better to use a stock unbranded RUU tbh

Million thanks will be enough

Is that an SLCD Desire, 3UK stock RUU?
if so I'll give some thanks to it too, been after that for a long while now.

thank you very much mate!!!
I gonna try straight after work, hope gonna be ok.
i am verry happy now!
thanks again

For reference, yes it is - completely forgot a newer one was released!
Another link:

is there a checksum available?

I'll get check sum when I get home. And yes, it is for slcd too, as mine is. I have ran it before just to try, worked brilliantly.

hi
i tried to install the rom but i get a [140] Bootloader version error message.
what can i do?have to downgrade the bootloader?
thx
EDIT: i solved the problem.I had to downgrade the rom and after worked fine.
Thanks for everything!!

hi killerno
can you just clear up, when you got this to work, you had to downgrade the bootloader (not ROM) ?
i have literally just got a new desire from 3, and rooted and did a nandroid backup before putting oxygen 2.0 on it, and when i checked, my backup was gone! currently im not concerned, but obviously if i ever need to send the phone back ill need to do the same as you, and i have tried to install this rom and it failed as well, so just interested as to your exact steps if you dont mind?
thank you in advance
Mikey

Downgrade following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256
Then run the RUU posted on the prevous page

thanks EddyOS
i will give this a go as and when i need to (hopefully never!) as i said, im currently using oxygen with android version 2.3.4 and am pretty happy with it, although i apear to have lost 720p video recording option, but that is no biggy and the only thing i can notice that is missing.
thanks again

720p isn't in Oxygen

yeah i gathered that, any idea why as i though oxygen was gingerbread which supported it? might be wrong, i am a newbie! haha

Cause it's ****

ooooh haha, what do you recommend then oh great one? ;P

Get a decent video camera as using a phone for HD video is a massive fail!!
I barely take photos with my phone - I've a digital camera for that

ahh right, thought you were gonna recommend a different rom, well, i have a HD video camera, but, doesnt quite fit in my pocket like my phone lol. like i said, im not that bothered, just wondered why i had it on my stock 3uk rom, but when going to a newer version (albeit non official) it wasnt in there? i guess it will be added at some stage

HTC push the '720p' capability but Adam decided to remove it from Oxygen as it's not very good. It was just personal choice
As for using a different ROM, there are some which are based on 2.3.4 that have 720p enabled so go have a browse. I just use a basic 2.3.3 Sense ROM I made myself based on the leaked test ROM. It does what I need it to so I'm happy

[Q] From Myn 2.2 RC4 TO: Newest GB w/ radios...

Okay, so here are the specs of my phone:
SUPERSONIC EVT2-2 S-OFF
0.79.0000
041f
Radio - 2.05.00.06.10
I really love the battery life that I get with myn's warm 2.2, and I could live with it, but I was really wanting to try GB. I thought I read somewhere that after I update the radios then I can't go back. So...
1) assuming I've got a nandroid of what I have now, can I just start flashing away with GB from xHausx and the newest radios
2) If I decide that I don't like the new setup, if i restore my nandroid, will the updated radios remain, and if they do can I go back to the old ones I had somehow?
Thanks a ton, and thanks will be given!

here is a link you may want to read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=790427 . but radios i believe you can flash older ones. its hboots that i think(not 100% on that) you can not go backward on. as for nand look at the link,i believe unless the rom you flash has radios those stay the same when going back. if you like warm 2.2 rls5 then maybe you should try synergy(myn is one of the devs on that ) is a 2.1 with 3.0 gb rom. hope some of my rambling helps you out
