[Q] Stuck in Boot Loop - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My EVO 4G (supersonic) is stuck in boot loop.
If I go to hboot it said:
*** LOCKED (00w) ***
SUPERSONIC EVT2-3 SHIP S-ON

I have tried doing clear with hboot and I have also tried choosing recovery until it gets to a red triangle and exclamation point and then either pulling the battery and restarting or pressing the vol up and choosing reset. It is still stuck in a loop.
As I read through
I found a thread somewhere (which of course I can't find now) that I thought had the same bootloader version, etc as above. It suggested to download PC36IMG_supersonic_gb_sprint_wwe_4.67.651.3_radio_2.15.00.12.19_nv_2.33_release_234563_signed.zip, rename PC36IMG.zip, copy to root of SD card and boot with hboot. When I did this I got a message that the ROM I was trying to install was older than what was currently installed .
As I read further through this post I saw that my radio was newer. Someone else posted who was having this problem who had the same hboot information as I have. It was an older thread but at that time they did not have a stock ROM available to do a recovery. The suggestion was to see if the phone could be unlocked with the HTCDEV method.
I was able to successfully unlock it. The hboot info is now:
***UNLOCKED***

Since I can't find this thread I don't know what they suggested I do next.
Since it is now unlocked, can I install any stock ROM with hboot?
Ultimately I'd like to install a custom ROM, but, for now I need a stock ROM because I want to use it with FreedomPop and you need Sense to set the profile.

You need to flash a custom recovery now and then you can install a rom

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.

[Q] EVO won't boot or go into recovery

If I try to boot my phone it gets stuck looping the 4g animation. I'm not able to boot into recovery and trying to fastboot into bootloader just takes me to the starting screen. I have already tried literally everything suggested on the other related posts. Any new suggestions or should I just take it into Sprint?

Okay, so when you boot, you get a boot loop. When you pull the battery, put it back in, hold voldown and power do you get to the bootloader? If so, most likely that you'll be able to recover. If you can get to the bootloader (which I think you can, because of the info you posted right about, doubt you have that memorized, lol) So it say's you're S-on. Were you rooted before? s off? I'm not sure if you can flash a custom recovery with s on, I don't think you can. You could try that first, try using the bootloader to flash the PC36IMG I attatched, it's amon ra's 2.3. If that doesn't work, try running a PC36IMG of the factory rom, and try to get back to stock. Or you could use an RUU. I wish you luck. Here's a link to all RUU's and PC36IMG's for the Evo
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884060&highlight=hboot-0.97+ruu
I flashed a PC36IMG and it booted me into a stock, unrooted sprint rom but after I rebooted once the phone went black and vibrated 5 times. I tried to do it over againg it the screen just goes black when I try to reboot after flashing PC36IMG.

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.
