download the latest RUU from HTC.com, boot into bootloader/ fastboot... then plug your EVO into your computer and your should then say "fast boot usb".. then run the RUU

You aren't supposed to rename it. Re-download it. Connect your phone into fastboot, connect to pc, run RUU exe.
K ima get it from xda

are you getting error 170 messages? install HTC sync so the drivers are there.
So.... Let me guess what happened you were running a custom rom then you formatted your SD card right?

IF you are trying the PC36IMG, you need to make sure to just rename the zip file to "PC36IMG". Do not add the ".zip" when you rename it, if you do your phone is not going to see the file because it is going to see it as PC36IMG.zip.zip. The format of the file is already a zip so adding the ".zip" is what is causing your problems. Hope this helps, its a common mistake I can remember when I first got into rooting and stuff I encountered the same thing.

There are a few PC36IMG.zip files you can put on your SD card and go into HBOOT to flash it.
They're all over the place. kind of hard to find.
do you have a link by chance I have no luck with search

I rooted using unrevoked and unrevoked forever, but I wasn't able to flash cyanogenmod, so I read up on NAND unlock and flashed the PC36IMG.zip from toast's method, but now it always restarts into bootloader and i cant get the os to load. Please help!
You should already have nand unlocked if you did unrevoked. All you you need is the eng hboot fix. Flash that zip in recovery , you can find it in dev section, then you should be able to flash CM hope that helps

This happened to me also. Go into recovery, run the mod zip again. If that doesn't work for you, you never saw me.
when i go into recovery it says E:can't open /cache/recovery/command
so i dont know how to flash anything
oh I see well try running ruu then just do unrevoked one click and youll be set just when you try to flash CM again after that make sure you flash hboot fix or it won't work.
Edit
Just read your post carefully lol czn you go into bootloader

I had this exact issue after I loaded that PC136 file and installed it on my EVO. I wasn't able to do anything but load the bootloader. I finally had enough after 5 hours of no help, and found the shipping ROM and reinstalled the original ROM on my EVO.
i have since re-rooted and will not even dare to go back at this time to try that mess!
People can get you rooted, but they don't know how to get you out of a hole!

Basically all you really need to do is flash s-on in clockworkmod and then the PB31img from part 2
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Is there some way to just flash stock recovery and turn s-on without using adb in any way...adb kinda scares me
Sent from my HTC Incredible using XDA App
Read part 2. No ADB required.
Indeed. No ADB required. I've never even used it for anything. All you need is an SD card.

The memory card must be formatted in Fat32 otherwise it wont read it. Also it must be named "PB31IMG.zip" some computer show the .zip and some don't, so make sure not to name it PB31IMG.zip.zip unknowingly.
Thank you i thought it was formatted correctly but I used the phone to format it because I didn't have access to a computer last night but this morning I got on and reformated it and then it worked thanx

After some problems while flashing RCMix v7 with data++ i´ve some questions:
Do i have to rename the HBOOT .zip (linke PB99IMG_bravo_cm7 to PB99IMG) or can i simply flash it like Roms in the recovery?
Have you even read the instructions on alpharev.nl? Guess not otherwise you wouldn't be asking this.

Yes in other words.
Sent from CM7
1) rename the file PB99IMG_bravo_cm7 to PB99IMG, put it in your sdcard (not in any folder) and go into bootloader, it will start and flash itself
2) if you have ADB set up and working, you can push .img file through fastboot
Thank you guys.
@TheGhost1233: Yes i read it, but didnt get that it flashs itself in the bootloader.
Hey quick question, what's the easiest way to unroot? Trying to help a friend, he is noob, and I don't know much about the EVO, any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Unrooting
1. http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/forever ; Scroll down to the FAQs, then download the unrevoked s-on zip. This places the security back on your phone, because rooting makes it s-off, and if s-on, quickest way to tell your phone was rooted.
2. Flash that file from recovery, then boot back into the bootloader [vol+down while turning phone on] and verify until its s-on.
3. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19699565/3.70 RUU Zip.zip ; rename that file to PC36IMG, place on the root of your sdcard [not in a folder] then flash it in the bootloader. When the scan that normally does nothing, it'll detect that file. Apply the update then reboot. That's a stock 3.70 firmware file, it'll take you back to stock, unrooted, s-on.
Thanks, would it also work if he just went to updates, and got the new gb update, would u run into problems going that though if it even worked?

If he did that, he could brick his device or lose root permanently.
