Not sure what you need help with??? Does it have a custom recovery such as clockworkmod or amonra? If so you can flash any Rom to it in recovery or load up an ruu in bootloader if you want it stock. Your choice

Download latest smelkus modded recovery.....hboot version. Rename to pc36img.zip. Put in root of sd. Get back into hboot let it install. Make a band backup. Grab a rom and flash
Thanks that worked perfectly hahaha it just needed a custom recovery hahaha its weird though the bootloader is still locked but we can flash any Rom. Thank you all

I rooted using unrevoked and unrevoked forever, but I wasn't able to flash cyanogenmod, so I read up on NAND unlock and flashed the PC36IMG.zip from toast's method, but now it always restarts into bootloader and i cant get the os to load. Please help!
You should already have nand unlocked if you did unrevoked. All you you need is the eng hboot fix. Flash that zip in recovery , you can find it in dev section, then you should be able to flash CM hope that helps

This happened to me also. Go into recovery, run the mod zip again. If that doesn't work for you, you never saw me.
when i go into recovery it says E:can't open /cache/recovery/command
so i dont know how to flash anything
oh I see well try running ruu then just do unrevoked one click and youll be set just when you try to flash CM again after that make sure you flash hboot fix or it won't work.
Edit
Just read your post carefully lol czn you go into bootloader

I had this exact issue after I loaded that PC136 file and installed it on my EVO. I wasn't able to do anything but load the bootloader. I finally had enough after 5 hours of no help, and found the shipping ROM and reinstalled the original ROM on my EVO.
i have since re-rooted and will not even dare to go back at this time to try that mess!
People can get you rooted, but they don't know how to get you out of a hole!

Sounds like you need to root you phone first. I would use revolutionary to do so. Its easy and quick did it last week when i got my sprint replacement phone.

Wait what ??? My phone is rooted I'm using the express ROM ...
I been rooted for like 2 years now I just didn't notice that I neeeded S-off to flash hboots or radios. Which is weird because I used to flash radios and flash a new hboot with S-on . But now i can't update the bootanimation the PC36IMG.zip file or update the hboot.

This is no problem. I assume you changed your HBOOT to use the Anthrax kernel? Well, you should've downgraded your radio first, and then this would've been a LOT easier. But, since you're stuck at S-ON, now, you'll need to follow these instructions to fix it.

Hey captain I'm guessing you want me to do this? ?
It'll be okay . Boot into recovery and nandroid. You'll need it once you're done.
Just download this: PC36IMG_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.70.651.1_Ra dio_2 .15.00.11.19_NV_1.90_release_161482_signed.zip
Rename to PC36IMG.zip and put it on the root of your SD Card. Boot into Bootloader, and let it update your device.
Then, once it boots up, got into settings and enable USB Debugging, and go to unrevoked.com and select unrevoked3 to root & NAND unlock your device.
Then, you can switch your recovery to Amon RA, full wipe, and restore your nandroid.

If I do this can I still be able to flash the express rom and the anthrax kernel. Or I have to flash another hboot and then do this process again?..

You won't have to do anything with your HBOOT anymore after this. This will get you back to S-OFF, and at the end, you'll just restore whatever you're running now (unless you just want to flash something else).
You can flash the Express ROM, the Anthrax kernel, the updated radios, and you'll still be S-OFF.
Trust me, just follow the instructions. it's easy. You have to download and install the Froyo ROM so you can re-root with unrevoked. After that, you're just installing a custom recovery and restoring your nandroid.
Okay I got it but you lost me in the last part. Okay so I need to install a froyo rom right now then update the PC36IMG.zip and then let it boot. Go to settings and use the USB debugging and go to the website install the exe. Root the phone and nandroid it? .....

It's not hard. Just follow the "Guide Below for v2.3.3 builds 4.24/4.53/4.54 softwares to ROOT and unROOT revolutionary method" on his page. You will just need to run 2 PC36IMG.zip files from the SD card.
You don't need RECOVERY.

Ok, so I've been trying to find a clear cut answer regarding limitations you have with an Unlocked Hboot (Mine is 2.18), but still having S-On.
I've got a Custom Rom/Kernel/Recovery, but I am trying to use PCIMG36.zip to flash a splash screen, I've verified all the info is correct, I changed the splash screen file to splash1.img, I have the txt file in the zip, but no go.
Can you only flash things through recovery with s-on?
Sorry if this has been answered already, I did quite a bit of searching before I posted this...
Yes. You can only flash splash screens, radios, etc with S-off.

Misread your post, are you trying to flash through recovery? PC36IMG.zips are meant to be updated through bootloader. You can only do that once you've achieved S-off.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Sorry, I should have been more clear, I've tried flashing through recovery and the installation aborted (did the same thing with a custom boot animation and it also failed), so then I tried the PC36IMG way.
So even if you do it in recovery it won't work with S-On, right? Or is it even possible to do in recovery?

It is NOT possible to do it in recovery and you DO need to have S-off for it to even work through the bootloader.

hi i wanna know if i can get s-off w/ the classic rom? or do i need to revert back to stock rom?
i got this phone a few months ago, rooted, installed recovery and rom, skipped the s-off because i was lazy. now i wanna install aokp roms and it seems that i need s-off in order to do that. correct me if i'm wrong.
many thanks for your time.
No. You don't need s-off for AOKP. You're fine. Just make sure you backup and wipe properly.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
The only problem with s-on is that you need to flash the boot.img from the rom separately in fastboot

You don't even have to do that I thought? Its flashing radios that need S-OFF.

This is true for the EVO LTE when it's S-on (unless it's Hboot 1.12, then it doesn't matter), but on the OG EVO it's not an issue. Only issue with being S-on on the OG is not being able to flash radios, as stated above.
