I have looked all over the forms and other sites for fixes and none are working.
Evo 4G-S-OFF
Android 2.3.3
Kernel 2.6.35.10-ChopSuey
ROM: Fresh EVO 4.3.3
HBoot: 6.16.1002
I have tried putting multiple PC36IMG in root of the SD card and the bootloader doesnt pick it up at all.
I tried flashing the file through clockwork mod recovery and app and for both I get Installation aborted.
I tried the RUU but it said it could not find the phone.
I even tried adb-son patch and a few other son fixes for unrevoked but still I can't get S-On Back.
I can only flash new roms and new kernels.
SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!
Update
I tried flashing the RUU through fast boot but it did everything else but un-root the phone. Now it does not have a recovery and its back to OG Rom but it is still S-Off.
Help Please !!! I need to turn phone back into sprint.

Have you made sure its not named PC36IMG.zip.zip?

if your just trying to unroot, just flash a rom that has had root taken out. if your trying to achieve s-on, try flashing the ruu via fastboot.

Yes i renamed it and to only PC36IMG because windows put that second .zip on it

how are you trying to flash it?

I tried flashing by going into clockwork recovery and install from zip.
I tried letting the Bootloader find it on the root of my sd card
I tried running RUU on my computer
I tried flashing RUU through clockwork mod app and recovery
on youre computer do you mean putting your phone in ruu mode via fastboot and flashing? if not try that -
1. plug in phone
2. in adb type - adb reboot bootloader
3. fastboot flash zip (name of ruu)
if that doesnt work, switch to ruu mode before trying to flash
thats how i do it on my inspire, should work for you.
cuz its not gunna work through cwm

What do you mean by RUU mode? Do you mean go into Hboot Menu or just tur on fastboot on the phone, because i had fastboot on before.

ruu mode is a special umm recovery-ish mode that lets you flash an ruu from your computer.
you have to do it tgrough fastboot. i dont remember the command atm but a simple google search will tell you what it is. and all of this stuff is through your computer, not just simple in phone stuff, you need fastboot usb.

Search for the thread "how to unroot revolutionary root?????????" And follow the directions. Its easy.
Support TrevE! Fuh Q CIQ!
Ok It still did not un-root, the recovery is gone the ROM is stock but the Kernel and the S-Off is still there. As I said before the instructions are not working.

I root-ed the phone with the unrevocked app,and put a new custom rom,etc.
But i want to flash the AmonRa recovery,i dont like the CMW...i tried with several versions of the unrevocked app,selecting "custom rec.img" and still nothing...help
?
"Still nothing" is probably not the error you are getting.
No,no
It finishes without a problem in version 3.2 and 3.31 ,but nothing happens,the recovery doesnt get flashed.
And in version 3.1 i think it just gets sruck at "waiting for root".
but i found a way to flash a new recovery,via Fastboot,just have to get s-ff first.

go to this site: http://alpharev.nl/
download the iso and burn a bootable disk.
boot from disk, follow instructions and flash amonra
once successful you will have a different recovery and s-off
Yeah thats what i plan on doing...just one question about the procedure
burn cd
do the alphrarev s-off
flash new rec.via fastboot
(after the new flash,do i need to do a wipe+new rom,or do i just reboot and all is well with the current rom?)
This procedure won't affect your current rom at all, it will only give you s-off and the alparev recovery ... so there is no need to flash another recovery through fastboot as this procedure already takes care of that!
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Thats about right, and you dont need to wipe anything to push new recovery. I would also recommend using a usb pendrive to s-off your phone. Just make a bootable usb with alpharev on it and let it run. Instructions can be foind in software development forum.

hello everybody...
a friend of mine just gave me his desire, he bought a used one and tried something to update its rom, but now its bricked and its in my hand to be fixed.
the problem is that it doesnt boot at all... i mean when i press power button to make it on, the htc logo appears and starts again and again with a little VIBRATE. so i can say that its in a boot loop.
ok when i press vol down and power button it goes into the boot loader, where it is written that its S-ON with boot loader .93, and when i click on recovery it goes into the boot loop like i wrote above.
i also have a Desire HTC and it is rooted using unrevoked and i m running an HD rom over it. its a complete packaged phone...
i have a knowlege how to root and etc. but in this bricked desire case i dont know what to do. coz it never happened to me... i also searched the forum for a solution, didnt got any.
please help me in this matter... ask me question and please give me a solution,/

1. Download this:
http://www.multiupload.com/LEJCW182AH
2. Follow this guide to get the ZIP out of the RUU and flash off the SD card:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10509780&postcount=102
Assuming the phone is unbranded it'll work, or at least get the phone booting again. If it fails flashing the ROM for any reason then it's a branded phone and you'll need to speak to the seller to find out where it's from

but going into vol down and menu and then pressing recovery also enables the boot loop with htc white screen and vibrate on everyboot
I think that easier way not loosing the root would be flash once again recovery were you using clockwork recovery? Beside if the phone is branded you will need a goldcard
so i think you should instal adb http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/
then you need to recovery image which you can find here http://www.android-hilfe.de/root-ha...a-recovery-ra-desire-v2-0-1-27-11-2010-a.html
put recovery on c drive sdk folder and open cmd on your windows and put a command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
U can try to put ur phone on bootloader, then plug it to ur pc and run the RUU from windows..It should restore all, after that u can root it with unrevoked and do what u want..

U cant flash the recovery on S-ON desire..maybe worth a try to run unrevoked again and see if its work, but i dont believe
i have written clearly that the phone is not going in recovery nor it is booting in to some sort of rom or recovery that i flash new recovery.but if you tell me or direct me to some tutotial to flash recovery in adb mode, may be i can unbrick my device. but c i cant boot into recovery. i can just boot into fastboot.

With ur guide he can run the ruu without stay connected to the pc..but he can flash it directly from the pc (if phone usb work), as is more easy (at least in my opinion)..the phone in fastboot mode is not a problem, as the ruu handle that case

In the info you stated s-on.
Shouldn't it be s-off for flashing.
Did you try reflashing recovery through fastboot and then trying to boot into recovery using HOLD vol. - and PRESS power?
When will you guys learn to search and also that a bricked phone doesn't do anything more than a brick can do? (hence the word bricked) You can't turn on a brick can you? I.e. your phone is not bricked...

Is it possible to install with this command " fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.1-passion.img " for example.

You can't install clockwork as you don't have s-off.
You need to find the .exe RUU.
Check through the posts left by hawks. If they don't work search google. Also if You still can't find one. Check the htc website for an RUU update. Depending on on your operator you may need an RUU from them instead. I know t-mobile uk release seperate updates from htc.

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.

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.

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.

So I decided to try and unroot my htc evo 4g with this tutorial i found:
[GUIDE] How to Unroot the EVO in 2 STEPS http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780141&highlight=unroot
I began with the steps that just involved transferring PC36IMG.zip onto my root folder and booting into boot loader. I ran the update and everything and rebooted and my phone seemed to have factory reset. i went back to my bootloader tho to find that it still says "s-off" so i guess its still rooted? I then installed rom manager and when i go to app it says im not rooted. Im so lost and confused I assumed i need to flash a recovery so i used this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705026 and tried each way. none have worked.
Please help!!
Thanks
Your not rooted just s-off which makes it possible to root.. If you get s on and update your phone to a newer hboot then you can't root.... If you want to be rooted again and have a custom recovery your gonna have to flash a recovery and flash su

soo how do i go about flashing a recovery and su?
also when i go to bootloader and try to enter recovery i get a black screen with a phone and red caution symbol. is this because i dont have a recovery?

make sure you download the one for gingerbread and also download the su-bin and flash both via recovery

hrm ive been to the recovery forum and tried all ways to install and none worked. im scared to try the bootloader because last time i updated all it did was erase everything.

the only thing that can be flashed in the bootloader that will wipe your phone is a RUU. Flashing a recovery wont erase anything
I also did the bootloader thing and ended up getting a big "**unlocked**" and "**relocked**" symbol above the regular Supersonic EVT3 S-ON. So I dont where this leaves me when its talking about my warranty and getting the device repaired. I wanted to re-root my device but nothing is working now that I am HBoot 2.18
Hey all) Maybe someone knows where to get information on how to write scripts for root.

unlock bootloader then downgrade to a earlier version of android like 2.3.3 then accept the OTA and it will say LOCKED s-on http://themikmik.com/showthread.php...18-HBOOT-with-HTCDev-com-No-More-Watermark!-) dont do the root part after you downgrade to a earlier version
I just tried this today and it should work.. Use the "HEX" zip file from this forum. Rename it PC36IMG and place it on the root of your SD card..

Don't do anything else but that and let me know how it goes.

Such a pain in the butt now. I tried to get s-off for my nephew earlier this month but I threw in the towel. Thought it would be as easy as my phone but it was too late as he had updated his bootloader. My phone was rooted back in January, nice and easy.
