Ok here goes. I went to sprint and got my phone changed. Hardware(3) Started rooting my phone from ota 3.29 using the autoscript method without no avail. This is not my first time rooting and what hapened to my phone is strange. Kept on reading and found that unrevoked method 3.31 which had the latest ota 3.70. Update my phone which was not rooted previously to ota 3.70. Now i have a endless reboot it start ups and every 7 minutes its reboots automaticaly. I can access bootloader so i tried using fastboot usb to use with an officiall Ruu with succes. But still have the same problem. So i went and used clear storage and used the phones factory reset but the problem persits. Dont know what else to do. One thing i dont know much about android but when iam in bootloader an doesnt reboot. Can i do a diference using this acces point?. Any help is apreciated please. Thank you.
Let me get this straight. You have the newest update from Sprint?Have you try to flashing a rom as a PCM36img.zip?
It wont recognize my sd card or sync with my computer. Thanks for the reply.
So this happened before you tried unrevoked? Just right after you took the 3.70 OTA? If so, I would take it back, it seems like certain Evos are plagued with random reboots.

Thanks man. I'll take it back tomorrow. Guess i root another day jajaja. Take care.
can you get into boot loader?
HI. Okay, so a couple weeks ago, I received a notification from HTC that said there was a new update available. Since I had S-Off and an unlocked bootloader (don't ask why, I just ****ing do.) I could not update, as it would give me errors, and cancel the update. So, earlier today I was fed-up with how slow my phone was being, and I wanted to fix it by updating. So I scoured XDA and found a thread about how to update by updating the HBoot or whatever. I followed those instructions and everything was fine, until I got to the initial part of installing the new **** through RUU. It was running fine, and then all of a sudden, the phone disconnected and ****ed the installation up. My battery was fully charged, and still has a charge as I am writing this. I digress. Whenever I would try to power my phone on, I would feel THREE (3) vibrations, and nothing would happen after. I tried booting into the stock recovery (fastboot, recovery, etc) and would still get THREE (3) vibrations. Bricked. So, I looked through a few threads on XDA, and found a few ways to fix it. Something about a Blind HBoot, or a Qualcomm Diagnostic Mode being stuck or something. Figured it was my best shot to try these. I tried them all. I put the PG76IMG.zip into my SD card, and booted up when holding Volume down, and only got THREE (3) vibrations. The tutorial said I was supposed to get FIVE (5) vibrations. So, I thought maybe it was something strange, and kept going through the tutorial. After five minutes, I'm supposed to press VOL UP, and should feel THREE (3) vibrations. Nothing happened. I waited and waited and tried again, and still, nothing. My phone is still lying here as a paperweight, and I want to get this working, so I can sell it because this phone is too much of a ****ing hassle for me. NOTHING HAS WORKED. ROMS, KERNELS, NOTHING. HAS. WORKED. I'M TIRED OF IT. I'm not a noob, I've been working with Android phones for a long time, and have never quite used an HTC device before. I had a Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate (CDMA) and it lost it's flash after I had moved to a different state. (The state I'm in does not have any towers for that carrier here.) SO. Can ANYONE give me a HIGHLY DETAILED tutorial, STEP BY STEP, to fix my phone?

ok, im not saying i can get it going again but i`ll do my best to help. lets start from the beginning, what actually works atm? you say when you try boot up the phone in any way it just vibrates 3 times.
does it do anything else, does the screen light up?
does it even stay on?
when you connect it to the charger does the led still light up?
have you tried to connect it to the pc? have you tried to connect it too the pc with volume down first?
all seem very basic stuff obviously but if the pc can register it in hboot we might be able to get a ruu running on it.
Found this on a different thread...
Nevermind. Just realized you were still getting three vibrates. Sorry man. I'll keep an eye out if I see anything else that might help.
what is your hboot version? i was see 1.09.099 like in forum maybe you can start with update hboot.
you can use adb for all of this works. download a ruu and run it. after some steps you can find rom.zip in windows/temp extract it to a folder like c:\android\rom and use adb for install all *.img files. maybe it can fix that problem

seriously , adb can install img files ?!
Alright, well, I called htc and told them about my problem, and I might have to just send it in. BUT. I had my phone rooted, and had CM Recovery on it. So, since nothing is booting up at all, only the three vibrates when trying to enter either boot mode, will they be able to see that I had it rooted or anything? They said they'll charge 35$ just to ship it back in the same condition if it is. Can't really afford anything like that right now.
tl;dr I had my phone rooted, but nothing on my phone comes up, will they see my root or anything?
if you are rooted you are probably s-off or at least have unlocked bootloader. and both they will find out very easily.
Sorry for my bad it was fastboot.exe you can install .img files with fastboot.exe i was installed stock recovery with that

Hi all, hopefully someone can help, I was using my phone fine earlier when all of a sudden it just switched off, wouldn't turn back on at all. After trying for a while I've gotten into fastboot. I've tried booting into recovery but no luck.
I've since tried wiping cache - no effect. Flashing recovery - 'FAILED (remote: image update error)'. Boot recovery image - reports success, does nothing.
I'm S-ON, was on a custom ROM. Anyone offer any advice?
Thanks.
Also, the phone doesn't seem to stay turned off now, keeps booting itself into fastboot.
What the model of the phone

It's a UK One M8.
After a couple of hours of messing around with no luck it's now just turned on. No idea what that was about. Afraid to turn it off now!
If anyone sees this and does have advice I'd still appreciate it, feel like I'm probably on borrowed time...

have you had custom rom, recovery or root installed before?
I've only had this phone a month or so, rooted it pretty much straight away and installed Viper ROM. Left it alone since then waiting for Lollipop.
If you just mean experience wise, I've rooted all my phones for years, never had one randomly turn off for no reason and refuse to enter recovery though (thankfully), usually when I have issues its cos I did something daft!
Half way through Christmas day the phone froze up, completely unresponsive. Once the battery had died and I could turn it on again I was back to where I was, can't boot up, can't get to recovery, fastboot won't flash a new recovery, get the same failed message as last time.
Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks clsA. I'll take a look at the link...
The phone started working again late last night though, again no reason, just did. I took the opportunity to update the recovery, do a full wipe and install a new ROM. Hopefully I won't see the same issue again, if I do I'll try out that fix.
Thanks!
So a little background first. Over the past couple of weeks I've been having an issue where my phone just all of a sudden tells me that my sim is not recognized. Usually a power down and back up fixes it, but it's been getting worse and worse. I tried getting a new sim card but that didn't help.
So today the problem occurs again, and when I restart I get a McAffee screen telling me my phone is locked because it's been rooted (it has not). From what I can tell, the only thing it will let me do is enter a pin that I don't know. Do I have any options here, or am I totally bricked? Any help would be appreciated, I'm starting to panic.
Don't worry, your phone till okay.
the last option you can do is hard reset or try to flash stock

Heya folks,
So my HTC 10 just randomly crapped out on me a few weeks ago. Been trying a few things to try to flash a new ROM on there, but I'm not having much luck and need advice. I was using my phone like I would any other time and all of a sudden the phone froze and restarted, but when it restarted it was taking forever to load back up (was just stuck at the HTC logo). I tried turning it off and on again and realized the thing was bootlooping on me. It wouldn't boot into system, download, recovery, nothing.
Now, here's the issue. My phone's S-ON and the bootloader is Locked. I've never done anything to the software on it before (but for some reason the software status is "Modified", which is weird. I did buy this phone used, so that could mean something, but I've never seen a modified software status on a bootloader that was not unlocked). The symptoms are pretty weird. I tried flashing the ROM using an official HTC RUU EXE, but the thing keeps saying that my phone is below 30%, and when I charge the phone it always starts charging at 22% (all the more reason I think the software is just completely kaputs). I found this thread where people were talking about the SD Card solution, but I'm quite sure the only way this would work is if my bootloader is unlocked.
So what do you guys think? Am I in a catch 22? Am I missing something? Any and all replies or questions would definitely help.
