I Bought a evo flashed to boost upon trying to flash back you sprint using the RUU from my PC the phone restarted (on it's own) during the process and the RUU exited. Now my evo wont get passed the white evo screen without vibrating 5 times and going blank. The PC shows android usb devices and htc bootloader in device manager but doesnt show in device or removable storage. i have tried pulling the battery, waiting hour before putting battery back in, cleared storage and I out of idea
any help would be appreciated
thanks in advance

If you can boot into the bootloader, try flashing a PC36IMG.zip of the RUU through the bootloader. I don't have one handy, but I'll see if I can find you one.
I'm not sure how flashing to/from Sprint works. Are you trying to unroot? If you are, then you need to flash the unrevoked s-on zip in recovery before running the RUU.
Not good. I had this issue and spent days trying to fix it. Luckily it switched to S-ON so I was able to get it replaced at the sprint store for $35.
if you can use bootloader or recovery i would try flashing the latest sprint radios
Try this if you're unrooting back to stock:

thanks plainjane Im just trying to get my phone in a usable condition w/ sprint at this point whether or not it's rooted or not. but i have downloaded:

PC36IMG_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.26.651.6_Radio_2.15.00.07.28_NV_1.40_release_140444-signed
and renamed both to pc36img and still cant get past white evo screen before it vibrates and goes blank and can't get into recovery to flash unrevoke s-on

Can you get into the bootloader by vol down + power buttons until you see the skating androids? I'm assuming so since the info you posted is from the bootloader.
If so, put the PC36IMG.zip on the root of your SD and boot into the bootloader. Make sure that it's named correctly & not PC36IMG.zip.zip. By default, you should only see PC36IMG in Windows because extensions are hidden. You'll still be s-off if unrevoked or unrevoked forever was ever used, but you'll have a bootable phone.
i tried the link which provided the 2 PC36IMG zip and followed those directions, but when I flashed the unrevoke s-on zip is aborted b/c it couldn't verify. so now instead of 5 vibrates and blank screen with green flashing light its just rebooting the white htc evo. but something did work b/c now my hboot screen shows

What exactly did it say when you tried to flash the s-on zip? I'm assuming you no longer have a recovery?
If not, here's a PC36IMG of Amon Ra 2.3, try flashing it through the bootloader like you did before. If you can get it to flash, choose no when it asks you to reboot then try to boot into recovery. From there you can try flashing the stock rooted rom. In theory this shouldn't work since if the first PC36IMG took you're not rooted, despite being s-off.
Are you following some kind of guide to flash back to Sprint? Are there any steps following running the RUU that you can do?
Recovery here: http://db.tt/WP0beNa
It couldn't verify the system type in the intial flash but i just used the new recovery and it flashed the unrevoked successfully now my evo shows s-on and its updating to the ruu pc36img now.
the link you sent me too earlier has instructions with it and I'm following those to do the ruu.
thank you very much you have been very helpful
i will post after the update is done to let you know the results
the RUU update has completed and it has rebooted to the white evo screen and has stay for the past 3 or 4 mins
so I pulled the battery and turn it back on and still went through the reboot loop of the white evo screen. Im reinstalled the ruu update as i type right now. and as of now my hboot shows:

finished updating and now when it reboot it just sits in the white htc evo screen
How long do you let it sit at the white screen? Sometimes it can take 15-20 minutes.
oh i only let it sit for 7 minutes or so do i need to reflash and update or just let it sit the next time ?
also when you pulled the battery it would boot to eithewr the 4g screen or sprint screen before it continuiously reboot or reboot to white screen
I honestly don't know the best way to go.
I would try reflashing it and see where it goes from there. If that doesn't work, maybe go into Amon RA and wipe CACHE, DALVIK-CACHE, DATA, BOOT AND SYSTEM. Then try the RUU again.

how would i go about getting to amon ra to wipe said files?
now my evo will start and get all the way to the home screen and then restart i mean its better then nothing but i still dont have anything useable at the moment but thanks to all that have help. i have tried to rerun the ruu through bootloader but still not getting a bootable phone. Would it be possible to root the phone whilst connected in bootloader since im not able to connect through htc sync
Also i no longer have root access
Have you flashed the pc36img of amon ra yet? Then selected the recovery option in the Bootloader, then wiping or flashing? You could also flash the latest sprint radio, prl and pri just to be on the safe side.

i used to be able to flash amon ra not when i use it as pc36img zip it loads then checks the pc36img then back to hboot screen.
as of now my evo you get all the way to the home screen where you must unlock it then will reboot
its almost as if it doesn't know how to get any further

hello,
I have a boot loop issue going on right now leaving my phone useless at the moment. Here is the issue....
This morning I flashed * update-cm-6.1.0-RC1-Supersonic-signed * and proceeded to backup all my apps and system data from a previous Titanium Backup batch backup. During the backup, the phone rebooted and now I'm in a continous bootloop only displaying the white HTC Evo 4G logo. The screen comes on for a few seconds, then turns off and reboots again in a continuous cycle.
I have pulled the battery and held down power and volume down button. In this white boot screen when I try to get into recovery, it goes to the white HTC Evo 4g splash screen and into continuous reboots again.
Here is my set up.

You might have a bad sdcard. Try to see if you can go into recovery.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I had titanium backup restarting my rom.
(My post from when that was happening.
Mine didn't get stuck in a boot loop though.)
Turned out there was a problem with BusyBox Versions.
Boot into recovery,
Restore nand backup,
Get BusyBox Installer from the market
Update to the same version you used to back up with.
Not sure if that will help, but it fixed my reboot issue.
Remember Hold Vol Down THEN press the power button.
I have tried to access Recovery but when I select it, it reboots to the white HTC evo 4g screen and goes back into that continuous screen reboot...essentially going no where towards booting anything.
Armon RA recovery BTW
is there a PC36IMG that I can put on the sd card to boot from? I dont care about having to re-root if necessary.
Thanks

you remembered to wipe your data & cache & dalvik right?
Edit: Sorry I misread your post, try taking out your battery and sitting your phone in front of a fan to cool it off. If that helps odds are you have one of the defective radios and need a new phone.
I have tried 3.30 + Clockwork PC36IMG as described above...no luck.
My computer doesn't recognize the phone via USB. The only thing I can think of is to use HBOOT USB ?
Like I previously mentioned in the first post, everything I try results in that continuous bootloop.
The only thing that has produced some results was an PC36IMG but didn't boot the phone or restore the recovery option.
I was trying out a custom rom when my phone suddenly goes into boot loops. I can get to HBOOT but it bootloops when I choose recovery, factory reset, or clear storage. I get the splash image then it reboots after a few seconds.
My phone:
Incredible AMOLED
S-OFF
Hboot v .92
Baseband 7.28
What I did so far in HBOOT only with no success:
-formated my sd to fat32 and
-flash the PB31IMG.zip of radio 7.28 ( I was on 9.01 )
-flash the PB31IMG.zip of 2.2 RUU (got back the HTC splash since I had the Chicago Bears splash on it)
-flash the PB31IMG.zip of Clockwork Mod 2.5.05
-connected the USB and rerun the Unrevoked (see if I can reroot) but it won't connect to the phone. Just wait for device.
I want to S-ON so I can send it back but I can't get past Hboot to get to recovery mode. Is their another way to return S-ON by just flashing PB31IMG? I'm really screwed now and its Thanksgiving.
TIA

That's Qualcomm Diagnostics mode, because you pressed vol up while booting the phone with a USB cable attached. That will only happen when you have S-OFF.
To get out of diag mode, unplug the usb cable, take the battery out, wait a few seconds and then boot as normal.
With respect to the OP..the only way to get S-ON is using the S-ON patch by unrevoked. If your HBOOT is verion .92 then you didn't flash an RUU (maybe the latest RUU has a newer hboot? didn't think so). You should flash an older RUU, like the 2.1 one.

so it looks like it flashed back to stock but still odd boot problem
Regardless if you're booting into HBOOT make sure you're holding volume down and not up.
HBOOT is version .92 now for stock? I didnt know that.
Hey all,
I'm at my wit's end. After a random reboot at one point while I was running CM7 Wimax beta 6 my Evo began continually restarting after hitting the white HTC EVO 4G splash screen. I can get into HBOOT, but I cannot access the SD card via USB, nor can I get into recovery. Thankfully I have USB MicroSD reader, so I can access at least attempt to flash things.
I've tried to flash new recoveries, stock ROMs from a PC36IMG.zip, various methods of unrooting so I can just physically return the device, with no success. All I can ever seem to do is hold the volume down button while it's booting to get to HBOOT, and nothing I flash seems to let me get any further.
Does anyone have any advice? I'd be happy with just unrooting the bastard and exchanging it at this point, but obviously if I can flash a ROM again that'd be ideal.
Thanks in advance.
your best bet would be to grab the ruu, pull your battery, boot into the bootloader, let it find the ruu and flash that. That should restore all of the files on the phone. After that you can run unrevoked or whatever you want and root again.
I've tried flashing the latest RUU and while it seemed to have updated my HBoot to 2.10 it hasn't fixed any of the issues I've been having.
Here's the information I can retrieve off the HBoot screen:

As of this morning im having the same problem from cm7. Can only get to hboot not recovery. 1 random reboot put me into white htc screen loop. Can't use pc36img, says its updating my recovery but then just loops again. plugging in via usb doesnt work.
Thanks for replying. This is a crappy position to be in, but at least now we know it's not isolated.
If anyone has any suggestions please let us know.
i guess we are the only 2 people having this exact same problem,
Not sure why/how this happened but after I finished transferring a backup to my sd card inside the latest clockwork recovery. I went back to the home menu to select restore but it randomly lost all selections in CW and it froze there. I let it sit for a while but nothing happened so I pulled the battery restarted and went to hboot then I noticed that it went from S-OFF to S-ON. Whenever I select recovery it would how the splash screen then go on a black screen and vibrate 5 times and the LED would flash till a battery pull. Then I just tried to boot strait to [Kang][4.0.4] CM9 a8 release which I not wipe and it did the same thing vibrating 5 times then the LED flashing. Right now I'm at a desperate need for a fix.
When I rooted almost a year ago I used unrevoked.

Since your on the correct radio, just run unrevoked again. That should reroot and get you back to s-off.
I tried that but I cannot reroot, unrevoke basically cannot detect my phone from what I can tell. Right now for some reason it would only stay on if it’s plugged in to my USB, and if I unplug it the phone would just go into a black screen then vibrate 5 times with the LED flashing.
I tried using the instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1110865
I can read the sd card if that helps, I think the problem lies with the USB.

Do you remember if you had usb debugging on? Are you sure the correct drivers are installed on your pc?
I have usb debugging on and I have installed the drivers provided by unrevoked for the Droid Incredible.
Finaly fixed it.
let me start with my symptoms:
for a while, my phone wouldnt start, it would just show the first splash screen and then it would go dark with white lines on the sides and above or it would be reversed showing black around the edges and the splash screen would still be there.
but then after a long time of not using it and f**kin around with it i got it to the actual home screen but it says "System UIDs are Inconsistent, you need to wipe your data Partition or your device will be unstable" with a button down below saying "im feeling lucky"
i have rom manager premium (forecloses alot) but when it does work, i cannot flash a clockwork recovery because it says an error occured while attempting to run Priveledged Commands
tried Factory reset and cleared all data on the phone, but it restarts only to bring me back to the homescreen (not the first time setup like it should)
i tried rooting my Phone by trying to downgrade back to froyo to turn S-off, so i can root and get back to Gingerbread i did it manually and with automated tools, but nothing works, i even made an account with HTC dev and ran thier RUU tool............
in the phone's Power+Volume Down menu, it says this:

Have you tried doing an ruu thru hboot http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.08.605.15/PB31IMG.zip? If so and it didnt work i would go to the htcdev site and unlock the bootloader. Once unlocked you can fastboot flash cwm recovery, and then superuser, and you will be rooted. Then enter recovery, wipe everything, and try to flash a rom and see if it will boot normally without issues.
