Problem flashing PC36IMG.zip

Have rooted Evo and put PC36IMG.zip on phone from RUU_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.26.651.6_Radio_2.15. 00.07.28_NV_1.71_003 and booted phone into fastboot. Phone attempted to install and it was not successful..then I reboot phone and it just goes to hboot everytime...cant flash rom in recovery, can boot into rom.

What are you trying to do?

I'm not sure what your goals were by flashing the PC36IMG you chose too, that is a stock build. Before you do things with your phone, make sure you do aloooooooooooot of reading/forum surfing to make sure you are doing what you want.
Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715915 and download this PC36IMG.zip and then flash that...it will leave you with a a rooted (albeit w/out superuser which you can download separately) 1.47 build (upgrade to current radio/wimax/rom from there)

Well, I was trying to update PRI originally, now Im just trying to get the phone back to any ROM. When I try to flash any ROM via recovery it errors out with a build.prop error..

Is it not loading the PC36IMG.zip at all? Your memory card needs to be an SDHC or it wont load the PC36IMG.zip.

Flashing the file you did will not upgrade your PRI. This is noted in the thread where it is available for download. Flash the PC36IMG from the thread I showed you that should work.

[Q] HELP! non-rooted evo stuck on boot

I have a friends evo that gets stuck booting. i can go into bootloader and everything fine. I know its a software issue and I'm wondering if there's something like ODIN that will reflash the phone. I have been through threads and can not find anything. I cant root because it wont boot. So is there any hope to get it reflashed? Thanks

Yeah just go get the ruu.exe and run it see if ur computer can recognize it if it does ur should be able to flash it

Yeah. I get the RUU to read the phone.. but it has to be a newer version than whats on the phone. and the phone is on 3.30. And i cant find the actual RUU.exe that is 3.30 or the 3.70. Thats the only thing i see that might work

here is a link to the newest ruu 3.70 so you can flash that:
step 1: download a deoxdexed version in this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=874251
step 2: flash that file to your phone by using this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831559

y does it have to b a newer version i know there is a pc36img ruu of 3.30 out there in the development section take a look there

I would try redownloading the ROM (from PC), place on SD card, go into recovery, full wipe from recovery, flash zip file from recovery.

Did you try and apply an update to a rooted phone????

Well, if you're on bootloader screen it usually doesnt recognize your phone.
Last time I flashed a RUU i used fastboot mode. Start your phone with the "back key" held. Then start the RUU.
If you get something like a Model ID Error then, you will have to create a Goldcard to apply the RUU.
CAUTION: Before you flash any RUU, check if it's compatible with your SLCD or AMOLED Device. SLCD Devices are incompatible with certain RUUs, flashing a wrong one results in a semi-brick (display not working, but ROM functioning).

You must be aware of having the correct RUU.then try to enter fastboot, when it is loaded, plug in your cable, you must see that it turns to 'hboot usb plug'. If it does so, you can flash the original RUU, if it is the right one

[Q] Please Help!!! Stuck on a rom!!

Hey everyone i'm kind of a rookie rooting but i know the basics. I had a rooted evo running cyanogen 6.1.2 with clockworkmod recovery i tried to flash ra recovery but my backups were on clockworkmod so i had to install an early version of MIUI and now rom manager thinks my evo is a incredible and wont go into recovery. Can someone please help?

Sure... just add punctuation and post in the right forum.
If you do this, I promise to help.

Uninstall rom manager and redownload from market.see if that works

Try running this RUU from here and you will be returned to stock and you might loose root in the process. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=800582

Thanks for trying to help guys, but i cant get into any type of recovery. When i try to download the latest clockworkmod recovery it asks me what type of phone I have, but it only gives an htc incredible(CDMA) option. When i do try to boot into recovery I just stay stuck on the evo 4g white screen

+1. This should do the trick, you WILL have to root again.

Thread moved to Q&A.

power button and volume button down puts you in hboot then go into recovery

You will not need to be in recovery for this. Just turn phone on connected to a pc as just charging and run RUU and follow directions. You will need a PC to do this though.

I tried to download the ruu but it said it was out of date. Before I rooted I was running the 3.70 ota. Is there a ruu exe for the 3.70?

Sorry for the double post but depending on which way you root (unrevoked..etc.) If you have the older version of unrevoked you will have to search the dev and hacking thread for the most recent unrevoked do to HBOOT

Trying to unroot

Okay, so S-OFF on my phone. I tried to do the forever unroot zip, but that didn't work..so i flashed the stock PC36IMG.zip file. Now the phone doesn't boot at all..it gets stuck at the white htc evo 4g screen. Recovery mode is inaccessible (has the evo with a red triangle). Is there anyway to fix this?

Yes, but need more info from your bootloader, especially your Hoot version and radio numbers.

And which "stock PC36IMG.zip file" did you try to flash?

I don't remember..it was one i had on my computer from when i unrooted my last one. I believe they were the same hboot/radio numbers..

You can't flash that zip, because your HBOOT is a newer version than the one which you're trying to flash. Red triangle, is the recovery, stock recovery. If you push vol up + power, you'll see android recovery system. Try running an RUU of the stock ROM you want.

How do i get my computer to recognize my phone?
Also, how do i flash an RUU if there is no option to do so?

Only way of doing that is from within an operational phone, Android environment. Or via custom recovery. Since yours isn't booting. Boot your bootloader, choose fastboot and flash a custom recovery via cmd prompt. From within the recovery you can mount the phone, turning the SD card in your phone into a flash drive on your computer.

I'm assuming you have Hboot 6.16.1002. In that case you need Captain Throwback's unroot method with the correct PC36IMG files.

Get your phone to that red triangle screen, run the RUU on your desktop (follow steps), connect your phone. Should load the ROM for you. RUU is available here.

Weird that unrevoked s-on didn't work, since you have a compatible radio. You might want to try flashing it again, once you get a custom recovery installed again.

A RUU is an executable file that runs on your computer environment which will push the ROM to your phone via sync cable. RUU= ROM update/upgrade utility.
Must you have S-On, to switch carriers, or do you just need the stock ROM on your phone?

I didn't see that you had clockworkmod as your recovery before. That's probably why it didn't work. I agree with the above; I'd just flash a stock rooted ROM. Just download the PC36IMG.zip for RA-supersonic v2.3 and put it on the root of your sd card (you can take it out of the device and connect it to a computer using a card reader) to flash in bootloader.

My phones touch screen is acting up..and i think it was the rom.

Fastboot > RUU > PC36IMG (hboot 2.16.00001 S-ON) > RUU. Best way in my opinion.
