[Q] Evo 4G Near Death? Desperately Seeking Help!

Hello all. I am a noob to working on rooting or doing anything of the sort with phones. I am more for desktops. With that said, I am in DESPERATE need of some guidance with my EVO 4G. I did not attempt to root the phone, I assume someone else did before I got it (from EBAY)..the phone itself appears to be brand new with no scratches, or any other markings. When the phone turns on, the screen shows:
SUPERSONIC UNKNOWN_ENG_ S-OFF

ON THE OTHER MENU:
the only difference is that is says clear and SIMLOC
Since, I am new....I of course researched what the issue could possibly be. I read that some have issues with the memory card so, after trying the two that I have...I went and bought a new one. I proceeded to try various PC36IMG files and each time I got the 'MODEL ID INCORRECT' message. I tried downloading items like unrevoked and RUU software (I also downloaded two different drivers) but, with one driver my device shows as 'my htc' and with the other drivers, it shows as 'android bootloader'.
So, I cannot actually access the device through the computer. I downloaded a 'pack' called Evo Brick Fix but, had no luck with it when trying to put on the sd card and then into phone. I have tried putting Amon Ra on the sd card and attempting to load on the phone but, whether it is Amon or another PC36IMG, I will say that a pc36diag file one other file cannot be found. It tried to load the PC36IMG file and as soon as the bar is all the way filled, it says Model ID incorrect.
Somehow, through my fumbling around, I managed to change out some files between PC36IMG downloads and I managed to get the phone to BEGIN loading the PC36IMG but, it says parsing for about 1-2 seconds and then very quickly flashes something about NV so (loading NV - I think...it flashes that extremely fast) and goes right back to the screen you see pictured above. It does not do differently if I try it on phone in hboot or fastboot.
Can some please help with any advice? It would be greatly appreciated as I am at my wits end and feels this Evo is as good as dead.
Thanks,
Anna

Try and search here on XDA for 3.70 ruu tutorial.I've tried posting the link but it won't work unless its directed.The 3.70 ruu is the one you want to run with your current radio and hboot versions and it should get you up and running.

[Q] Bricking? Non-stop looping/cant get into Recovery Mode

Hello G2 Forum users/developers.
I used ROM Manager today to upgrade Virtous Radio.
After this, my Tmobile G2 goes into perma loop. I get the HTC "quietly brillant" screen.
However, it would be in some sort of perma loop.
I am super newbie. I used this forum to unlock a few phones. I have ADB at home.
When I plug my unit/G2 into my computer via USB
and type "adb devices", this is what I get:
"SH12PR208475 recovery"
QUESTION:
What in the world do I do from here on?
BACKGROUND:
I have downloaded a bunch (5-7 different) of ROM via Rom Manager. The phone was acting up a bit, in that it would sometimes not go into Recovery Mode from ROM Manager menu. I would select it; it would turn off and then blank screen. To solve this problem, I would remove battery and turn it back on. This would remedy the situation.
After updating the radio via Rom Manager (choosing Virtous (Free) one), the phone appears to be "Brick like".
Please help. Thank you.
If you are local vancouver, pls call 604 838 5805. Thanks again

Im confused about how you updated your radio via rom manager.
But im wondering if you flashed the virtuous unity rom and you have the G2 Hboot.
If this is what you did your device is not bricked.
Can you tell me exactly what you flashed.
And pull you battery out, put it back in and then press and hold the power button and volume down. This will take you in to the bootloader. Can you let me know what it says the top 2 lines of that screen.
Also from the bootloader you can access recovery, using to volume keys to navigate and the power button to select
Also the latest version of clockwork mod recovery has some issues when you try to boot directly in to it. You can either use an old version of cwm or have a look at 4ext recovery in the dev section

Hello there. Thank you for replying. I just remember I did something silly last night. I downloaded a something called "ASTRO File Manager" via Market, using the search protocol "file manager".
I then used this program to delete "su" (super user), and one called "Super User" (the ones with the crossbones I think).
This morning, I used ROM Manager; there is a "premium" section and there is a "free" section. I used the second one, the 'free' section. At the end, they had "Virtuos" ROM(wrong spelling I think). In the subsection, there is a "Radio Config" or "radio" something. I clicked onto this. It downloaded. Then it told me to say OK to install. It did all of that. Then the screen went blank, as it should, because it was being auto booting. After that, nothing. Just a loop of "HTC" and then "quietly brilland" after that.
I had not mentioned about the deleting of 'su' file and 'superuser' [crossbone] before because I had forgotten it.
Right now, when I use ADB on my computer, I see the device name and besides a series of numbers is the word "recovery"
Like this:
C:\ANDROID\G2\MISC>adb devices

SH12PR208475 recovery

OK, can you access recovery via the bootloader. If you can you just need to either restore a back up. Or do a full wipe and flash a new rom.
The file you tried to flash was it radio to ril auto matcher?
And as you are rooted anything to do with super user on your phone is absolutely essential.

Sir. I have no idea how to restore a back up or how to do a full wipe. I would prefer to do a full wipe but again, I have no idea how to begin. I follow instruction on XDA here and managed to unlock and root 1. HTC TMOBILE G2 and 2. HTC TMOBILE 3G and the 3G Slide.
I think I can follow instruction; having said that, there is a huge huge amount of information on here and I am not sure where to start. Please help.

I believe I did this; this morning I did this.
You wrote: "And as you are rooted anything to do with super user on your phone is absolutely essential."
Yes, the phone was unlocked and rooted. I used the intruction on the Wiki portion of XDA Forum.
Please reply at your convenience. Thank you again for taking the time out to help me. Thank you, thank you and more thank yous (from Vancouver BC Canada)

PROBLEM FIXED
This is what I did. Some is due to reading replies above. Thank you CJWARD23
Some I just played around. Not sure what happened, but I think it is better I post something here since I already spent enough bandwidth above.
When I tried to get the phone back to the Bootloader screen in order to do a "backup and restore", all I got was a black screen, with a "HAT" and an orange curvey ARROW.
I was freaked out and scared. The screen had "reboot" and a series of things you can do, ie wipe the cache, wipe the davik cache; I am not sure if this is a bootloader screen or not. But I wanted to get the the "backup and restore" function. Well, when I push the power button to execute this command, I got the HAT and ORANGE ARROW.
This is why I posted this post on here.
Since I unlocked and rooted the phone using intruction on here (XDA), I went back to my old files on my desk top.
Because I had used "Astro File Manager" the night before to delete "su" file aka superuser file, as well as the file with the crossbones (Super User).
Please dont ask me why I did this. We in the recovery world calls it a temporary lapsed of insanity.
Anyhow, I used ADB on desktop to put back SU and SUPERUSER
then i went back to do the powerdown and power button, to get at the recovery screen
i then had the same HAT and ARROW deal
this time, I use the button on my g2, it is not the power button, it is the one with the glowing light (when you receive a call), it is actially the only button on the surface of the phone, it is below the screen. that one. i push that button to exectute. I got a list of all my old ROMS, i click onto one and walla..... recovery
I am still not sure what I did wrong, or what I did right. I just know that I had a lot of help from the gentleman/gentlewoman above - mr/mrs CJWARD23
and in the mean time, i did a lot of praying and did a lot of reading on here as well as trying this or that.
If I were you, try to avoid deleting SU, su, or anything with da crossbone. Laughs.
I hope this helps. Have a nice day from Vancouver BC Canada. 1422hrs/pacific standard time.

[Q] Major Boot Loop issue

Last week my Droid Incredible began to work more and more slowly. I attempted to reset it since it was working slowly (I believe because of the amount of data I had stored on the device). Although, as the phone began to load up it went into the infamous infinate boot loop. I have tried several things to get it to start up properly again. The biggest issue is that my mac doesn't recognize the device when connected via USB. So my question is, is there ANY way to have my phone start up normally without losing the data on my apps, photos, contacts, etc?

Whats your info?
Hboot version (locked or unlocked?)
Radio version
Android version
S-on or s-off
When you say reset it, you mean factory reset? From hboot or the settings menu in the os?
If you did a factory reset, your app data, apps, and contacts are already gone. A factory reset wipes these things. Your contacts should be backed up to google though and will restore when you fix the phone and log into google. Photos should be stored on the sdcard or emmc, which dosent get wiped unless you specificly choose to do so.
The possible fix depends on your info. Also does the phone vibrate more than once when booting?

I have the same problem, please help

Try running this ruu thru hboot http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.08.605.15/PB31IMG.zip. Download the file place it on yoir sdcard in no folders named exactly PB31IMG.zip. Then boot to hboot (with phone off hold vol down and power till a white screen appears, hboot). After a few secs hboot should automaticly find the file and prompt you to press vol up to install. When complete it will prompt to press vol up to reboot. Hopefully it will boot up normally. This will wipe the phone, but not the sd or emmc. If that does not work you will have to try to unlock the bootloader, which may be an issue if the computer cant see the phone.

[Q] can someone Help with fixing my DINC after Unrooting gone wrong?

Ok, so have a serious issue
at first i was able to successfully root and flash clockwork mod recovery on my DInc using the rooting method from unrevoked 3 and was running Clockwork mod recovery +Cyanogen mod7 through the Rom manager (cannot remember exactly which versions.) it was all running fine, then just decided to unroot it with a few different methods (one didnt work and the others failed as well, maybe because i mismatched the stuff i used during the First try at the unrooting process..but because i tried one method after the other, and it was soo long ago, i forgot exactly how i ran into this problem
basically somehow i screwed up the Unrooting process.
SO now I am Having the System UIDs are inconsistent message every time i start my Incredible, Tried recovery that didnt work, tried factory reset+ erase all data on phone SD card (i probably accidentally erased the recovery image) it seems to reboot and be all restored, like a stock image, but weirdly the Superuser Ninja holding the AR15 still shows up in my app drawer (even after i unrooted and restored everything.) so i i decided to check out if the permissions were still enabled and they were not... SU shows up and doesnt function (just blank). I investigated further by downloading ROMmanager and then everything ended up forceclosing over and over again...I went to download "# Root Checker" and pressed "check" and it proclaims that its not rooted but under "User" it said "root"... i guess that its saying im rooted but im not?!?! LOL
anwhyo here are my DInc Specs as of Right now:
my DInc is an SLCD, running android 2.3.4. baseband is 2.15.10.07.07

when i tried to see if i can reflash it through fastboot, the device manager in my W8.1 Pro 64 bit says "Device failed Enumeration" and USB notification popped up from the system tray saying that the device wasn't recognizable
so the drivers provided by Unrevoked for enabling the phone to be detected dont work, and the HTC Sync program doesnt even detect the Incredible.
However,,,,
the Fast boot, Boot Loader, and HBOOT still works upon pressing the Volume-down + Power and am still able to access Internal Phone Memory AND the SD card when the Phone is plugged into my computer via micro USB (so it looks like im able to flash things to it, but stuck as to how and what)
Because im still able to access the the SD card and internal Memory,
I tried putting PB31mg.zip on the root of the SD and ran HBOOT> and i gave it a second to detect the file.. then it said "Main Version is older Update Fail!"
the guy in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286223 seems to have had Similar problems..... I have added symtoms and issues on top of the whole 2.3.4 with S-on and Radio 2.15.10.07.07....
I just want to get back to vanilla-stock on my incredible with absolutely no modifications and without the System UID/feeling lucky pop up bugging me. and dont care what route i take, weather it be rerooting and reflashing , just reflashing. i just dont know what to do to get it that way from here.
Can anyone please help me figure out how to get back to normal with this DInc???
Im sorry if i dont make any sense im having a hard time explaining it. if you do understand me, i would appreciate your help. also if you need me to clarify things just ask me.

I'm a little rusty, but I remember this was the preferred method for rooting because of problem with the 1click unlockers,
(nuts, can't post links yet)... Google, "[HOW TO](gaining root)unlock,downgrade,and achieve s-off with htcDev" and look for it on androidforums.com
Try picking it up from step2, just keep the unlock_code.bin from miniadb_inc files from step1 on the phone. As long as typing 'adb devices' displays your phones serial number, you should be ok. As a long shot, you could try a PC with Windows7.

Try this ruu thru hboot http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.08.605.15/PB31IMG.zip

[Q] Missing Apps

Hello all! I'm new here, not sure how to navigate through this forum. But I have a slight problem and I was told you fine folks could help me out.
I just bought a HTC Desire HD second hand. The reseller told me it was unlocked and ready to go. Took it home, popped in my Sim card and all was well. Now this is my first Android device, but not my first encounter with them. I was looking though the All Apps and realized there isn't a Settings app. I then pressed the Menu button and pressed Settings and nothing happens. I am not entirely sure, but I believe the Settings app has been hijacked. So I have dragged down the notification section and have gone into the quick settings and tapped all settings and I get an error saying "Sorry! Status Bar has stopped unexpectedly. Would you like to tell HTC?"
So I have looked at the Preview error report and this is what it says:

Can anyone tell me what's wrong with my phone? I pretty much can't do anything

1- reboot the phone and try again.
Same problem?
2- power off. Pull the battery, count to 30, place battery back in....
While holding the volume down button, press the power button. It should take you to hboot.
Does it say s-off and/or bootloader unlocked?
While you are at it, contact the seller.
Report back.

In regards to the Seller, I bought the phone in the US. I am Canadian I am trying to track down the Store/Sellers info at the moment.
I've got in to hboot and this is what it reads:

Ahh.... When you said unlocked you meant SIM-Unlocked right?
You'll need to see if someone else can help you since I don't want to recommend anything with a phone that is stock. My bad.

Yes the phone is SIM-Unlocked, sorry for any confusion.

Anyone else able to help? I really wanna use my phone to it max potential I'm coming from a Bold 9900 and this phone is way Superior!

Why don't you download a stock rom and flash it ?

maybe you can try factory reset from bootloader
first disable fastboot from settings>power> fastboot (untick)
turn off your phone...then turn on again with press volume down + power until go inside bootloader
select FACTORY RESET..
*don't forget to backup everything you need first..contact, sms, etc.. because this will make all phone data, app and system configuration back to the original state..except sd card

How exactly does one flash a stock rom? And I have done several factory resets.. all ended with the same result. I've lost and info I have stored and I still have no Settings app lol
