I did everything the guide told me to and when I did the reboot bootloader it the PC36IMG.zip and let me apply it after that point it continues to go into HBOOT and I have tried searching all over and I cannot seem to find a clear cut answer on how to fix it.

You may have flashed the wrong pc36img, try running the RUU from here . You won't have root at first but it will give you 3.29 which is easy to root.
Which root guide should I use for the version of RUU you recommend?

If the 3.29 RUU installs for you, Unrevoked 3.21 will most likely work to root.
unrevoked is one click, but then you have to learn how to stand while you are already on your feet. i reccomend doing it manually. maybe take one more shot, and if that fails, ruu and use unrevoked.
Will I be able to load a custom rom after or do i still need to do more?
Never mind I finally figured out why it would not work I had to do unrevoked twice before it finally worked. Thanks for your guys help.

The only luck you may have is if you are already S-OFF. Go to your bootloader and check. (Hold volume down while turning on the phone) If it says S-ON at the top, then your screwed, if it says S-OFF, pm me, and I'll give you links to get you set up.
its stock just bought three days ago

I figured it was stock, but almost every EVO sold now is a refurbished model. Someone may have turned it in S-OFF, and therefore you may get lucky.
i try holding volume down and powering up and it just turns phone on will not show anything different then just turning on

You need to disable fastboot in settings - sorry, don't know where it is. Or you can pull the battery and then do volume down + power.

No root for you yet. You'll have to wait with the rest of us.
Nope. HBOOT 2.16 is locked. No method found at the moment. Sorry. tommytomatoe has been working on customizing unrooted evos. If you can find the thread, I think it's under development.
Thank you everyone for your help it helped alto can someone plz inform me when they figure out how to root my verson or tell me a way to find out when they do

Just keep an eye on the forums; when/if a root method is released, these forums will explode with activity.

[Q] Help needed, maybe dead DHD

Hi people, English is not my native lang so please don't take serious my grammatiq errors.
I've seen that you helped many people here in xda developers. Can you help me, please?
I have DHD, from Germany, Carrier is Vodafone.
I had on it gingerbread and i have tried to root it with Ace Advanced Hack Kit and during the process it say that I have to downgrade if I want to continue, I've agreed and that tool downloaded some ROM (I think it is some version of froyo) and after restart it has stuck in this screen.
Now can't do anything.

So, can you help me?
What shuld I do?
If you telling me to do something, please, do that in simple way, I don't understand many things here.
Thanks a lot in advance!
Solved
People, dont rush for now... I've sloved minor problem, I've read many material abouth the problem and findout that if I put PD98IMG.zip in SDCard it can install Froyo in it. So I did.
Now I can try to unroot the device with aahk tool.
If any sugestion, please tel me.
Thanks for this forum Q&A.

Some more info might be helpful. Are you S-on or S-off? What ROM were you running? What Hboot version? Can you access the bootloader and/or recovery?

Looks like it hasn't even been rooted. Could be a few things going on. You can try and unlock the bootloader using HTC Dev, then install a custom recovery and flash a ROM and see if it works afterwards. Other than that, I don't have any suggestions, particularly since there is no RUU (ROM Update Utility) than you can run, especially since you're S-on.
