Boot into bootloader (Volume Down + Power key from OFF) and see if it says S-OFF at the top. That might be what they are looking at. However, that isn't Superuser (su) privileges like they are saying. Sounds fishy.

Easiest thing might be to try a different Sprint location if possible.
[EVO 4G General] insert cust. service joke:
it does say S-OFF at the top.

How do I remove that?

redo the RUU?

will update.
[EVO 4G General] k2buckley:
From the point you're at now, there is only one way to get it to S-on. You need to install a custom recovery image, then use that recovery to flash the unrevoked S-on tool, and then after that you need to run the RUU again. You'll then be fully stock.

So, download the PC36IMG.zip I attatch. It is Amon Ra V2.3 recovery. Put the file on your sd card, not in any folders. Just on the main directory. Also place the unrevoked forever S-on tool on your sd card at this time. Boot to the bootloader, by holding power and volume down when your phone is turned off. It will scan and find the file and ask you to update. Press volume up to say yes. That will flash the recovery for you. When that is finished up, don't choose to reboot. Then from your bootloader's menu, choose 'recovery.' That will then boot you to recovery. Then in recovery, choose install zip from sd card, and find the unrevoked forever s-on tool that you put on the card. Then select to flash it. That should set your bootloader back to S-on. Once that's done, turn your phone off and boot back to the bootloader. Confirm that it now says S-on. If so, then all you need to do is run the RUU or a PC36IMG.zip of the RUU. You'll be good to go after that. Good luck.

K2Buckley, thanks for the help. The phone automatically ran the update, but when I go into recovery and try to flash the unrevoked-son.zip I keep getting Installation aborted. When I boot back to bootloader it still says s off.

Looks like your stuck cuz of the last update like the rest of us with new evos that have the latest build 2.3.3.
[EVO 4G General] shortydoggg:
The S-ON tool appears to be patched in the GB ROM 4.24. You likely need to

1. Downgrade back to 3.70 (use the same PC36IMG file from

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=780141

It should work if your phone is truly S-OFF).

2. Remove that PC36IMG file, then copy and run the PC36IMG update for the Amon recovery that Rem3Dy gave you.

3. Remove that PC36IMG file, then flash the S-ON tool from RECOVERY, and then finally,

4. Copy to SDcard and run the PC36IMG file from step 1 again, or the RUU which you were originally using for your stock ROM. Unfortunately, the RUU for 4.24 will permanently remove the ability to reroot the phone until the devs figure it out, but if you are returning the phone, then you might not care at this point.

Hope this works for you this time.
[EVO 4G General] OdayAllDday:
Yeah I was gonna say the same thing. As long as you're s-off, you can downgrade back to froyo to use the s-on tool.
[EVO 4G General] k2buckley:
Lousy. When you took the ota, it upgraded your radio. If you're s off, try downgrading your radios back to 3.70 ruu. Then reflash your recovery, and try the s on tool again. Hopefully you can downgrade your radio, because the s on tool doesn't work on your current radio version.
[EVO 4G General] Jim M:
Ed zachary, you need to flash an older version radio.

Just an fyi, if sprint found your phone rooted, they may have completely blacklisted the phone, and they may not provide service on it anymore. Just giving you a heads up.
[EVO 4G General] ncfastls1:
So...I thought sprint didn't care if your phone was rooted or not? From all the stories I've heard at least. This means if I try to do an insurance claim due to a cracked screen or something they won't allow it?
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
I also thought they didn't care CEO needs to come out and say how he feels and needs to be put out to all stores
[EVO 4G General] k2buckley:
It 100% depends on the tech that looks at your phone, or what particular store you find yourself in. I've been in stores that could care less, and the techs all have their phones rooted. I've also been in a sprint store where everyone was uptight and played by the rules and wouldn't touch the phone if it was rooted. The guy almost gasped and covered his mouth and was like, 'oh no, rooting is against our policies and we can't service the phone if it's been rooted sir'. So yea, always better safe than sorry.
[EVO 4G General] insert cust. service joke:
The whole situation is pretty screwed up. I lost reception at my home office three weeks ago. Nothing changed with my phone, no new apps, no updates, nothing. We had three days of ridiculous wind, and I really thought it was just a tower situation. I called up customer service and they told me things at the tower looked good and to take my phone in and have it looked at.

On my first visit to repair facility 1 they told me that they did a hard reset on my phone and then made a test call and the phone stayed connected issue free. Brought the phone home, and again minimal coverage. Called Customer service and they said they would escalate my situation and have someone physically check the tower. They suggested in the mean time to have my phone checked out at another repair facility.

The next day I took my phone to repair facility 2. There I was told that facility 1 reset my phone, but neglected to update its profile, and that they (facility number 2) had done that. Again after bringing the phone home I experienced no change in service, and called cust. service again. I was again told that the tower would be checked.

10 days go by while I was on Vacation. while in three different cities service was sketchy at best. Upon my return I called to figure out my options for repair/replacement, and was told to take it back to facility 1 to have the replacement process started.

Yesterday I took the phone in for the 3rd time (the second visit to facility 1) where I waited for close to two hours while they "ran tests" on my phone. An hour in I checked on the status and was told it would be fifteen minutes longer as they wanted to run one more test. About 45 minutes later they brought my phone out and told me that they couldn't test it or work on it as it was rooted, I had superuser capability, and that it was Sprint policy to not work on rooted phones.

Today Sprint offered to send me a new (refurbished) unit through my insurance plan, but if my current phone was not in like new condition or was rooted I would receive a non disputable charge of up to 500 dollars for the phone they would send me. The rep then offered up the option of getting the new phone sent, not opening it until they had looked over my old phone and determined any charges (which could take up to three weeks), and if I was unhappy with the charges I could back the new unopened phone and have "them" send me back my non functioning phone. To this I simply laughed.

I like Sprint's phone plans. But even with less expensive plans one experience with Sprint's customer service quickly explains why Sprint has suffered net customer losses three quarters in a row.

I look forward to taking my phone to facility 2 for visit number 2 tomorrow, and going to battle. Should be fun.

[EVO 4G General] kris54241:
Alright, when I had the HTC mogul, I was maybe one year into my contract and it broke. At this time time the insurance company and sprint stopped stocking this phone so I got a free upgrade. When do you think they will stop stocking the evo 4g considering no one will really be buying it anymore since the evo 3d is out. My evo has dead spots and I dont want to turn it in and then a week later realize I could have gotten the 3d. Anyone have any insight on this?
[EVO 4G General] subprime:
I don't think that will happen anytime soon. Of course, someone posted here that they do not get that many EVO's turned in with issues so they do not have alot of refurbs to hand out. I just had mine replaced by Asurion last week and got a NIB EVO. My son lost his moment a few months ago and the replacement device would have been another moment and that phone is almost 2 yrs old. (and a pos, I got Sprint to reset my upgrade because there was no way I was going to pay the $100 deductible for another moment). I think you will be waiting a very long time.
[EVO 4G General] elwood:
I was just at a local sprint store today and as I was getting my Evo checked out for random reboots and my sound going up and down on its own and thats without being rooted.. he opened up a cabinet and much to my suprise there was tons of OG Evo's and a few 3d's.. Yes the 3d is being scooped up fast, but I dont think it will be for a very long time before the OG Evo is done with and not being restocked.. its still one of the top sellers for Sprint
[EVO 4G General] sitlet:
The evo has reached EOL as of a week ago or so. So that means they have stopped making them. So basically the only evo's left are what stores already have, and maybe a few left in their warehouses.

Generally when a phone EOL's, there will still be refurbs available for warranty and insurance claims for at least a few months after the EOL date. After that, you will probably be given an upgrade to a new phone.
[EVO 4G General] Jlallman:
I read somewhere that Evo's will stop being produced in a few months, but their production definitely has been reduced because of the 3D.
[EVO 4G General] kawyboy:
Good luck getting an upgrade. I spent 5 months trying to get a downgrade from sprint fixed. Ultimately I had to use my upgrade and get a new phone. So good luck with being upgraded by sprints warranty.

We have 2 OG EVO's with best buys warranty instead. Had a samsung moment that broke 2 times and the second they didn't stock it and "upgraded" us to a samsung intercept (really a downgrade). Five months later I had to use my upgrade on my sons account and get him the EVO shift (his choice) and got a whopping $50 or $75 credit for the 40-50 hours I spent on the phone and computer trying to resolve the issue.

Anyway. Bottom line.

Good luck with that. I hope you do get upgraded!!!

[EVO 4G General] hercules rockefeller:
The EVO 4G is NOT EOL right now. I'm actually selling more of the OG EVO than the EVO 3d, although that's likely becuase I only handle corporate and government accounts, and they don't want to pay twice the cost for the EVO 3d now that the EVO is $99.99. The Evo still does everything business users need it to do and more, so it's popularity really hasn't waned like previous smartphones did (the moment the EVO came out, NOBODY wanted to be on the Hero, even though it was the greatest thing since sliced bread about 9 months before).

If I had to guess it will be a long time before you start seeing EVO's replaced with newer phone models on a regular basis, if only because we seem to reserve more phones to cover exchanges on the really popular models once they've gone EOL. usually when I see a lot of options for other phones models it's on a handset that we only sold for a couple of months and nobody wanted wanted anyway (anybody remember the Moto Q9C? Be thankful you don't! I could replace that with a different model within weeks of EOL.)
[EVO 4G General] randalldeflagg:
hey now, I stock with that piece of junk q9c until the hero was released. picked it up on day one. I'll hold on to the evo until something better comes up even then it is going have to really offer a lot more than what I have now.
[EVO 4G General] calypso888:
That would be the nexus prime. It should be here before thanksgiving n it will be the ULTIMATE android phone to date no matter what carrier your on. It will also start to dissolve other brands u.i. due to that being the main reason behind 90% of all problems we have with our phones. This way we won't have to worry about looking for exploits to obtain root because Google already made the root, eventually it will just be a simple click in the settings like turning 4g on n off
[EVO 4G General] Hotdizzle:
A month or so ago Best Buy told me that Sprint is doing early contract renewals. It was supposed to be a limited time offer. Maybe if you're nice they might still do it.

If your not rooted, I don't think you can use it. But if you are, it's been added to several ROMs. Also just search panorama and you'll find a thread with a flashable zip.

If you flashed a custom rom that says it has it in there. Turn the camera on 2d and its then in the options with greyscale and sepia and negative ect. Its one of the first options. It does not work on 3d. Hope that helps

Hi there.. well, after trying to make my tab come back to life, I think I finally destroyed it. Can't get to Recovery mode (Blank screen) and Download mode does not connect anymore to the computer... it also goes to blank and then restarts the tablet itself when I hit the "Volume up" button.

Try gtg's ultimate unbrick. Actually I think he has a stock rooted Odin package for the Rogers ROM which is closer to Infused v1.

I know this has nothing to do with anything but I just wanted to express my opinion here regarding this device. Since I took the "Android" Plunge in Feb 2010, I've owned a couple of Android devices (CliQ, Nexus One, Evo, Epic, Nexus S, Nexus S 4G), but this phone just tops all of them. The battery life for it being a "DUAL CORE" is freaking fenominal. It feels good on the hands. It's real quick, no lag that I can see and besides having to hijack a dock at a Sprint Store for 1.5 minutes to root it, I've been very happy with this device. I really don't know what it will take for me to switch over to something else. I got everything I need with this thing. Am I the only one who feels this way about the Photon? :)

I do hope that the Photon gets the amount of development support it deserves, considering everyone raves about it.
