Go to HTCDev.com, create an account, then choose "Unlock Bootloader." Our EVO isn't listed in the dropdown, so you have to choose "All Other Supported Devices" at the bottom of the list. Install the software they tell you to install, and follow the instructions, and you should be able to unlock your bootloader. Then, you can proceed to flash a custom recovery and Superuser, or a custom ROM.
Do whatever the Captain says for real

I followed online videos to install the Cyanogen nightly ROM, and after hitting reboot my phone didn't turn on...i held the power button and the "Sprint" screen comes on..and after that it just turns off again. Please help!!!!
If i pop out my battery, I can turn my phone on and get the htc Evo Screen, and then it goes back to a black screen...where the sprint logo will occasionally show up...and then go black again

I used the downgrading method to get to 2.1, rooted to 2.2 to get familiar with the process (unrevoked 3 or whatever it's called)...and I'm using the amon Ra thing...
(Clearly, I'm very new at this )
My friend did the same thing and had issues as well. Found out later his nand wasn't unlocked properly. When you boot into recovery, does it say s-off in the top left corner of the screen? Also what Eng bootloader version do you have, again this is located in the top left of the screen.

hboot-0.93.0000
Is that what you're looking for?
Yep, you will want to start over again unfortunately. My friend had the same problem you did. You will need the .76 Eng bootloader. Go to unlockr.com and search for nand unlock evo. They have the instructions and files needed to fully unlock nand and get you to the. 76 Eng bootloader. After that, you should be good to go.

Only problem is that the files aren't available in that post. Unlockr uses toasts method and the same files, plus the files on unlockr are still good.

What file exactly
sent from my HTC evolution running a freshly baked gingerbread with the 4gs in it
Uh.....what exactly are you trying to do? PC36IMG.zip is the name given to files that we flash via HBoot. The contents of that zip file can be a vast number of things that change various objects of the phone. Post your question, what you're trying to do, etc. so that we can give you the proper links/files.
Otherwise you may be looking for a PC36IMG.zip that installs a new recovery and instead get one that completely unroots your phone and gives you S-on. So we need more details into what you are looking for.
I need the one that unroots the phone please

Still need to be more specific.
You need an RUU to match your bootloader version, so that is needed.

Check what bootloader you have on your phone.
1. Turn phone COMPLETELY off
2. Press and hold volume down button while pressing the power button
3. A white screen will pop. This is your HBoot.
4. At the top it will tell you what version of Hboot you have. (i.e. 2.15.0001, 2.16.0001, etc.)
5. Take that number and post it in this thread so we can give you a file that will successfully flash to your phone.

No no no that's temp recovery,scratch is telling you to update your phones recovery. The recovery you go to when holding power and volume down.
regards,slymobi
Rom manager only gives you a temporary recovery, your main recovery will probably be an older version with the offmode charging bug.

Download this and move it to the root of your SD card (not in any folders) then power off, press volume down and power button to enter hboot and wait for it to load, press up to flash the recovery image then reboot, either delete the zip after or rename it to something else otherwise everytime you enter hboot it'll try to flash it.

You don't flash it in recovery, just make sure its called PC49IMG.zip and reboot into hboot.
