new guy needs help with boot issue - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

ok i dont know what happened but i have been lookin all over for answers. my phone died on me because it ran out of battery power so i charged it and now i get the HTC EVO 4G screen. So i cleared storage and tryed to recovery and it reboots and now everyonce in a while it will get to the unlock bar but will not let me drag it down. but it usualy does not make it that far. i am stupid with this but i tryed to download a pc36img.zip on the sd card and then run recovery and it still says that no image can be found. i guess in am needing the dummy directions for downloading the correct files and saving them on the card via a card adaptor and windows 7 comp. and then after i have that done the process to get my phone up and running. i just need it for music and internet as i do not have service because i am currently deployed. thanks to anyone that can offer any help and if i can get past this i would like to get it rooted thanks again

[Q] Stupidly Reflashed - Need Help to Recover

Hey all,
I am not a huge Smart phone buff, been dinking around on the tutorials. So I succesfully unREvoked my phone last night and it was working. I was doing an Update to the WiMax and for whatever reason I had an old PCIMG file left on there and I stupididly clicked yes to update to that image.
Well it wiped out my recovery and now I am not able to do anything (no card reader either). When I goto Recovery just a red ! and when I try to boot it just keeps looping me back to the bootloader.
I have tried connecting it to the computer, which has the Android drivers etc installed. The computer detects the device in some form, but when trying to get access via ADB no devices found. I am not really sure how to proceed, I will probably go buy a card reader and try and get the right PCIMG file back on and re-flash it. But if anyone has another method, I am all ears. Here is my information.

If nothing else I will try the SD Card and put on the IMG I had used originally, but would like to save a few bucks if I can.
Sorry if there is an answer posted already for this question. I did about 6 hours of research and looked through all the Wiki guides and came up with nothing.
Well, I bought a card reader and put the correct image back on the card which after a re-flash fixed it.
Thanks.

[Q] What kind of problems is this?

it starts to reboot specially when i start using any navigation program which means the GPS
After tried several rooms, radios and kernels nothing changed!!
then i start search in the internet until someone told me that problem is kind of USB bricks
so the solution is to copy some files to SD and write some lines in terminal emulator, so when i tried this i get access denied !
after that i decide to do S-OFF and try USB bricks solution
the process of S-OFF did not complete successfully and my phone gives me black screen with some instructions to do S-OFF process agine to fix my phone .
i tried to do it many times using different PCs but the black screen still there
finally, i use RUU (RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed)
to restore my phone and it works ... now i can't root my phone and it is reboot when it reach 37 degrees >> from stability test
i have used unrevoked with some ICE on the battery to prevent it from rebooting
but the result was : " is your firmware too new? " also i have used GengerBreak but the result was " NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENS HERE BUT REBOOT AND CHECK IF SUPERUSER IS THRER"
please help me !!!
If it is rebooting as a result of it reaching certain temps then send it to HTC to get it fixed.
so it is hardware problem ? isn't it ?
Sounds like a hw problem, but not the no root part newest unrevoked should work fine for you.
But while it is on a stock rom just send it in an complain about it rebooting, and you will get a completely new phone Then you can do the rooting via unrevoked.

[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:

<vol UP> to previous item
<VOL DOWN) to next item
<POWER> to select
Bootloader
Reboot
Reboot Bootloader
Powerdown
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.

HTC Desire -- Stuck at HBOOT after RUU

Hopefully I'm just being blind here -- and I have tried a number of guides to fix this -- but I'm pretty stuck.
Couple of days ago the volume down button started playing up, then the menu and search keys stopped working. At the time I had rooted the phone with unrevoked and installed CM7.3 (iirc), and taken the S-OFF with Alpharev 1.8. I figured it was probably a software issue and for some reason decided to go back to run an RUU (rather than just running a different ROM, don't really know why on earth I did that). Kind of having a feeling that I was very dense and ran the wrong RUU, as now the phone is simply stuck at HBOOT.
When I say stuck, I mean as soon as I turn on the phone it goes directly into the stock HBOOT (FASTBOOT -- RECOVERY -- CLEAR STORAGE -- SIMLOCK) yet NONE of the buttons work (so I cannot navigate it at all). Perhaps it is actually a hardware issue, which would make sense as it boots straight into HBOOT, no HTC screen or anything. When it runs the SD check it comes back with wrong / image missing in all the checks.
Tried running ADB, couldn't find the phone. Other RUU's return error 170 as though they can't find the phone. Phone does register "HBOOT USB PLUG" when plugged in though, and my Windows 7 machine does recognise it, but as there's a new RUU on there USB debugging is not enabled and I cannot access the SD card through the phone.

Any help would be much appreciated... Later on today I'll pick up a card reader, figure my only option now is to try and get through to it that way?
Hmmmm!
I'm not sure but it actually could sound like a hardware issue. You have the STOCK HBOOT and then ran the RUU for the HTC Desire? If u did so I cant see it as a software brick. PM me if you need some more help. I had a Desire for some month ago that i bricked A LOT more than yours, and i got it fixed (by myself... took some nights thought :/
Yeah I thought that as well, but before I flashed the RUU, although the phone was powering directly into HBOOT, I could use the buttons to navigate the menu. Now, I simply can't.
I should maybe add that when it checks the SD it returns with wrong / missing image (can't remember the exact wording -- pops up then goes pretty quickly).
Also this afternoon I opened up the desire and checked and reseated the buttons, all seem to be working as normal. Seeing as it's stuck at HBOOT, I think I'll just need to buy a new SD card and put whatever the image it's looking for is on it?
Edit: I was thinking that reformatting the SD card (through a PC USB reader) as FAT32, then placing the PB99IMG.zip from the latest 2.3 HTC WWE RUU might work? I can't see any reason why not -- think the Desire is unbranded so no goldcard required.
Edit2: Still waiting on a new adapter, but was wondering why the RUU failed -- the file was RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone_UK_2.33.161.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157522_signed.exe from shipped-roms. Don't see any reason why flashing it would have ended up leaving me in this position -- even if it was a hardware issue underlying it.
Sorry to double post...
Tried putting the PB99img from the RUU (and tried the 2.3 update PB99img) to no avail on both the SD card that I'd been using recently and the one that had originally come with the phone -- no luck; once HBOOT detects the img and runs through it, it gets stuck at the "parsing... [1] [2] [3]" etc page.
Any help would be massively appreciated, would be appalled if I have managed to brick this in my enthusiasm for fixing a volume button problem -.-
Already checked bortak's troubleshooting guide?
Yep and anything else I could find really. Starting to think this little droid is doomed.

need help unrooting :fingers-crossed:
Run an RUU. Look up "supersonic ruu's", download any of them and run it with your phone plugged in
You know that unrooting the phone will erase all of your data, right? So backup anything like your contacts, pictures and videos that you might want to save before preceding.
The easiest way for you to unroot is to download, then copy this file to your sdcard.
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/38127313/PC36IMG.zip
Power off the phone, then hold volume down + power button at the same time. It will then take a couple minutes, but when it prompts you, accept the update.
AND PLEASE HIT THE THANKS BUTTON IF I HELPED YOU.
It's this the latest ruu ?
