Hello XDA Fourms, Im Dale. And I'm a Noob.

I Rooted my device about a week ago and I decided to unroot today. I rooted my device using this root method:

htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-3d-hacks/how-to-root-htc-evo-3d/

Every thing was going great, Until I tried Unrooting.

This is the method I used to attempt to unroot my device:

goodandevo.net/2011/07/how-to-bring-your-rooted-htc-evo-3d-back-to-an-unrooted-s-on-state-1.html

I downloaded the PG86IMG.zip provided through a link given in the tut, and put it on the root of my SD. I got into boatloader, and it found the .zip file. it loaded, and asked if I wanted to install. Vol down for yes. The installation progress screen came up. Everything showed up as "-OK" except for when It came to SYSTEM, it unziped and updating cycled about 4 times and it said "-Fail-UZ" the same thing happened for RADIO_V2. Upon finish it confirmed that Update Failed! So now when my phone boots the White background screen that displays htc in green letters (Splash screen) and just stays there. Ive waited an hour at most. Nothing. So I did some research an I found out about the twrp PG86IMG. I took my Mini SD reader and put the file on the root of the card and tried the twrp PG86IMG.zip. It installed fine. But my phone is still doing what I described. I have all data copied to my computer (Music, Contacts, Pictures, etc.) So I dont care if I have to wipe the phone, and or the SD card clean, just as long as I can get my phone back up and runing and unrooted. All help apreciated, Thanks.

Ps: I don't know if this will help at all but my Bootloader screen displays:

SHOOTER XC SHIP S-OFF RL

HBOOT 1.40.000

eMMC-boot

Try updating it thru shipped roms

hi i has pretty much same problem i hate this rom manager now because of it my phone got bricked 10 times in one week and got stuck on htc splash screen so i had to install a new rom every time but now this bastard even curropted my phones recovery as well. so i cannot use even my recovery. i thought to download one of the shipped roms available in here. i downloaded europe one and its a exe file so u dont even have to do any thing just run it and connect it thats it... your phone is up and running as you bought it from shop. if you cant go to recovery just put your phone in fastboot and it will detect your phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] zadias:
I'm not having this problem.. but I can't unroot my phone for sure! Mind linking us to the thread of the "europe one"?
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
check the md5 of the PG86IMG, it may have been corrupted
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
The PG86IMG.zip file mentioned above which is used to restore the phone to stock is distributed officially by HTC inside of their RUU (ROM Update Utility) .exe.

This .exe gets leaked onto XDA by a user named Football who posts it in the EVO 3D dev section. The .zip file can be extracted easily from the .exe.

Many people post up just the .zip file as it can be loaded directly on the phone and doesn't require a windows computer, like the .exe HTC distributes.

Goo-inside.me hosts both copies of this file, the .exe and the PG86IMG.zip file. If you want to restore the system to stock w/o using windows, use the PG86IMG.zip file. If you want to restore the system to stock using windows, use the RUU.exe file.

All shooter RUU and .zip files for all CDMA Sprint software versions:

http://goo-inside.me/shooter/ruu/

Latest Sprint Software Version RUU .exe - 2.08.651.2

Latest Sprint Software Version PG86IMG.zip - 2.08.651.2

Sorry to hear you're removing root access. Hope the above information and links help!
[HTC EVO 3D] DaleR.:
Hey Joey, Thanks for the Info.

I am running Windows 7. I downloaded the RUU.exe. All it asks me to do is turn my phone on, Connect it to the computer via USB, and make sure that the computer doesnt go into standby or Hibernation mode.

Am I still able to accomplish this even though my phone will not fully turn on, and only goes to the splash screen? If so can you tell me how. Im good with computers, but I still have to learn about Android devices, given that this is my first Android phone. So a step by step on how would be great ;D Thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
All I do remember about the RUU .exe is that it uses its own special mode to initialize the device and I don't remember if you have to be booted into normal android mode or the bootloader for the RUU to recognize the device and take over the command sequence.

Have you tried going through the RUU on windows? If so, please post back the error message it displays / screenshot?

I haven't ran the windows version (RUU .exe) in a long while as I switched to Ubuntu for my primary OS a while back ...

Personally, I would load the .zip method over the .exe method as I don't have Windows and prefer to see the verbose details of the bootloader over the Windows exe. The basic steps I would follow, same as you did before, load the PG86IMG.zip from the goo-inside.me site for 2.08.651.2 onto root of the sdcard and boot the phone into the bootloader, vol down + pwr, as you did before. Confirm the update in the bootloader and let it flash.

I've never experience an error in the RUU PG86IMG.zip file before but I personally always extract the .zip file out of the RUU to ensure it is done properly. Goo-inside.me should have the proper files and I would trust them as I am friends with the owner. If there are file issues, let me know and I can help get them replaced.

As was mentioned earlier in the thread, if you have problems, and aren't sure how to use md5sum to check the downloaded .zip file integrity, download the zip file again. Chances are it won't corrupt twice.

Hope that helps and good luck!
[HTC EVO 3D] DaleR.:
Ok. I think I'll have a shot at the PG86IMG.zip from Goo-inside.me. I use Firefox, with the Add on Down Load Them All, to put in the code for md5. But everytime I download a PG86IMG.zip with md5 at the end a Verification Error Dialoge box pops up saying:

"The checksums of the download didn't match.

This means the download is corrupt or compromised, unless the provided checksum was bad in the first place.

Therefore it is recommended not to use the downloaded data.

What would you like to do with the downloaded file?" Retry / Keep / Delete

This happens agian even if try to redownload the zip I always get this Dialoge box. Sound like anything you might know about? Oh and How exactly do I extract the .zip from the RUU.exe?
[HTC EVO 3D] zadias:
I'm gonna give the .ZIP and RUU a shot (in respective order).

To be honest I don't want to unroot my phone.. It's just that my recovery boots into the OS and I haven't been able to find support. All is well I suppose.
[HTC EVO 3D] DaleR.:
Lol Im not trying to spam... Continue to page 2 ----->
[HTC EVO 3D] DaleR.:
But I need to get to 6 posts....
[HTC EVO 3D] DaleR.:
So that I can post images, of the process I did, through URLs for you Joey. To give you more of a visual ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] DaleR.:
Ok Joey, Heres what I got.

I downloaded the PG86IMG.zip from Goo-inside.me, I did the md5 through Download Them All firefox add on. And of course I got the Verification Error Dialouge box I told you about. I put it on the root of my SD, and went into bootloader of my phone. It loaded it:

It asked me if I wanted to install:

Vol up to install, it showed the verbose detials. It gave a few " -OK" 's and the phone rebooted back into bootloader and now it reloaded the zip again, but I noticed it said ***LOCKED*** at the top of the screen:

After it loaded the zip it right away started updating:

None the less the SYSTEM -Fail-UZ but now the WIMAX has the Fail-UZ and I noticed that the RADIO_V2 is now -OK Take a look:

So my phone is still stuck on the slpash screen again. Do you think Im not using the md5sum to check the downlaod properly? To be honest I'm not familiar with md5 at all. So whats your thoughts on this?

ps: I didn't exract the PG86IMG.zip from the RUU.exe because I didn't know how. I just downloaded the PG86IMG.zip from Goo-inside.me through Firefox like I explained.
[HTC EVO 3D] rudyp9:
That happne'd to me too you just have a bad download look for another one and try it again
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
the md5sum checksum values must match. not sure why you're having issues but you should be able to download the files directly without using any type of add-on. perhaps try downloading again or using a different computer/internet connection to download them.

Once you've opened up the RUU.exe file, I think by progressing to the 2nd screen, hitting next, it will extract the .zip file into a temporary directory under your windows user/profile folder. The file will be called rom.zip. If you can't find it, you should be able to search for the file name rom.zip to locate.

Simply rename this file to PG86IMG.zip and put on your sdcard.

Once again, the md5sum checksum value will need to be correct for the RUU.exe download. As best practice, I wouldn't flash any file which didn't match the checksum value.

Hope that helps and good luck!
[HTC EVO 3D] DaleR.:
I used a different Computer. One that is far better than this one, and Im getting the same thing, checksums dont match. Im thinking Download Them All maybe detecting a false positive? But then again I dont see why the file still isnt working. How do I use the md5 to checksums if Im using Internet explorer?
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
I've always used from command line in linux, md5sum /home/user/PG86IMG.zip .

From windows - google md5sum checker

If you're in the custom recovery, they have busybox installed and you can md5sum /sdcard/PG86IMG.zip from there also.

If I get a chance later tonight, I can try and also download the files from goo-inside me and double check the md5sum I get. If anybody else has the chance, maybe they could also post back the md5sum they get on the RUU/PG86IMG.zip files from goo-inside me ...

Hope the md5sum directions help!
[HTC EVO 3D] DaleR.:
Im on the better computer right now, I redownload the RUU from go inside me with out checkingsums. Im going to extract .zip and see what happens in bootloader with it. I'll try the md5 directions if that fails. If the md5's fail, I'll wait to see what happens for today on these posts. If that fails, idk what to do?

EDIT: Wow -.- I just downloaded the RUU like I said, and It wont even open. It seems like something is not wanting me to fix my phone :\
[HTC EVO 3D] DaleR.:
I downloaded the md5sum Checker.

This is the md5 Goo-inside.me supplies or the RUU downlaod:

006aeca525a1a121a79ffd3f2aedacea

This is the md5 code the Sum checker is giving me from the RUU after download:

78C5B9EAFBF4F3CEBABA9514517CA8B5

My computers (Both laptops runing windows 7) wont download any RUU or .Zips for the Evo 3D correctly. I've checked the Europe RUU mentioned earlier in this thread, those md5s didn't match when I downloaded. I've downloaded atleast 4 different PG86IMG.zip files, none of the md5's matched after I downloaded. This is crazy. I have one last option, is to use my XP desktop. I'll give that a go and see what the md5 match up on there is. Wish me luck.

EDIT: Wow, Im starting to get really bummed out. Im on the XP Desktop and im still not getting a md5 match up. Now Im getting this md5:

C18BA8CF7F8E548EFAF8D025A42C78F6

Any idea whats up? I have Comcast, and I know there updating to xfinity and upgrading their service and what not. About 3 days ago my internet went down, along with a few of my friends who have comcast and I've noticed since then on all 3 of my computers YouTube videos just stop playing unexpectedly and wont buffer. But the internet seems fine. Maybe there could be so possibale link as to why these downloads arnt matching up because of that?
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
Maybe your antivirus software us angry with the zip? Try "trusting" the download somehow maybe that would work? Also, since it seems you updated your hboot to 1.5, maybe you need the exe now and the zip won't work?

Yes I said it dicks with Sticks I come from the good xda days the WM 6 to 6.5 days where you could ask a question without the **** with sticks where not quick to point out that you forgot one period or this thread was already posted So the F$%& What are peoples lifes that lame that they have a 24/7 Stick up there Ass on anything that's posted? Im not saying everybody there's some Kool peeps on Xda and you make a mistake or spell a word wrong they correct you with a edit not a flame some where some how we lost touch with those ways but I guess people who already have bad outside lifes look for any chance to bring other people down.So let's just sit back and watch all the comments about the periods I forgot to use people point out and don't hide now show your selfs point blank is its one thing to go hard on a troll that's fine flush them out but not your own people with your own device thank about that not everybody is a power user or search wizard do help them before you boost your small egale. Sorry for any miss spelled words or grammar because I know it will be brought up Smh God Bless P.S. Android Rocks

Welcome to xda, where everyone thinks they are a mod. I miss the winmo days too.
[Atrix 4G General] ccrows:
I don't get caught up on grammer and punctuation that much, but yes the Atrix forums can be a different animal from the rest of XDA at times.

For some, this is their first Android device, and seem to forget that XDA is a friendly and helpful community...
[Atrix 4G General] Turducken:
Give a man a fish... teach a man to fish... Learning how to search is like learning to fish. Some people get upset at those looking for handouts.

I see xda as a place for devs not a "how do I tie my shoes" help forum. There are plenty of those out there.

I agree that some take it too far then again if the admins were on top of things this wouldn't happen.
[Atrix 4G General] Deggy:
Xda has become popular. Its the source of many good ROMs. I wasn't around during the winmo days, but I assume those people were hardcore and the original flashers.

You can thank android for making xda popular via websites such as phadroid or droidheadlines or anything with the word android in it that link xda. "You can activate hspa+! But not through att but xda!"

So wheres the next xda type site so we can shove a stick up its ass?
[Atrix 4G General] marko!:
See all those thanks that people have. That means we help people.

[Atrix 4G General] Sinful Animosity:
Atrix board is a lot different than most boards. The amount of forum police here is astounding. Most people can't report and move on. They have to add a flame for some unknown reason.

While I wasn't here during the winmo days, I can say the overall discussion on this site has been nosing down toward negative. Not just in the Atrix section, but all of the sections I visit.
[Atrix 4G General] pukemon:
Well the author of this thread, if you haven't noticed, hasn't noticed the stick up arse. Have you noticed his responses, the threads he/starts, the entitlement and lack of humor. And I don't think the case was presented very well with a topic started like this. Have a nice day op.

I voided my warranty and your mum.

This question has been asked before, learn to use the search button noob!!!

[Atrix 4G General] tykazowsky:
I have no qualms with XDA as I have enhanced my devices exponentially thanks to the "services" and advice and help.

however, coming from the nexus one, and those threads, to the

atrix and its threads, I have noticed a lot more animosity and the lack of overall altruism that I used to sense.

Again, I thank xda for all that it shares and I am grateful, animosity or not, but I understand what the OP is feeling.
[Atrix 4G General] JaronBang:
This has nothing to do with the Atrix. Should be moved or removed.

Furthermore, you can thank /b/ for the spawn of trolling and internetards. Isn't specifically Atrix owners, it is the evolution of the internet.
[Atrix 4G General] G1-8701:
i feel what your saying, but not everybody on here act like that, i try to help when i can even if their new to the atrix. I've ran across a few that tried to give me a hard time when i was only asking a simple question, you just gotta put them in their place, even if you gotta snap on them, they'll learn not to mess with you.
[Atrix 4G General] supermerkin:
Im on the fence here because I do come from winmo and my HTC Fuze where there was tons of help. You could say I was a flash whore back then and I did it within the 1st 24hrs of owning it because people seemed to give me clear instructions and not point me to a link that conflicted with another link or set of directions.

I now am going on a week with the new Atrix and am getting close to unlocking it with very vague help and nobody seems to take a look at exactly what I am saying or my concerns but just push me somewhere else. So I guess it is help but it seems like getting pawned off onto someone else in hopes they will give me a direct answer...

Props to XDA and its legions of devs and what you guys do but right now I feel exhausted with this phone...
[Atrix 4G General] hoodlikegaza:
why is this assinine thread getting so much attention? completely off-topic, and irrelvant to the atrix. The question is (again) where is the mods?

i've started flashing a qtek when 6.1 was the latest os

then polaris then nandroid on polaris then android milestone and atrix now...

yes i miss too the old days, when we were a community and "pro" were happy to show their knowledge to "naabs"

other side forum has grown a lot, and i believe the mid user has now less xp then in the past, so that's why "i bricked!", "phone do not respond", "please help" and any related threads are the most opened everyday.

atrix is one of the latest devices so everyday new things come out together with the risks to do something wrong

resuming:

new device+

miduser's lack of skill/knowledge+

lot of "dev wannabe" than believe bad manners is the way to show their own knowledge

=not the most friendly subforum in here.

in italy we use to say "Asking is legitimate and responding is good manners"...(or something like that :) )

I believe this concerns the whole neo-internetculture, and not just xda. People enjoy being anonymously rude. Think we need Victorian moderators:p
[Atrix 4G General] tykazowsky:
for example, what if your noob friend saw your awesomely modded and decked out phone, and was like, can i get that on mine too?

you wouldnt respond in anger, "go online and search!"

no, you would probably explain how awesome it is and take them step by step through everything.

why is that so difficult on here? yes i agree search is key before posting a thread, but hardcore developers and computer geniuses hafta realize that not everyone else is gifted in search, and knowing how to find what they are looking for.

and nowadays, with so many people having android, XDA is no longer just a place for the few who wanna hack and toy with their devices, there are lots of noobs on here.

if someone asks a stupid question, why is it so hard to answer the stupid question? if its that stupid it should be easy right? and if its so obvious to find where it is that they should be looking, why not search it and post them a link?

its not as if you have anything better to do... you are just going and reading threads and posting things such as "wrong section!!!" or "search! its not that hard noobie" or "there have been millions of threads addressing this"

and if your time IS that valuable then dont read it or comment on the thread at all. unless you are a moderator taking action, which is fine, thats what they are here for, dont flame people for no reason, it doesnt make you look cool. it doesnt make you better than that person, just cuz you know more about something on XDA than they do. if you did it in real life you would just be called a douche. IMO its no different on here. it just makes me imagine you as a scrawny geek nerd with no life or girlfriend compensating by acting tough and hard online.

get a life. or just be kind. gosh

It's also bad when the devs act like that. I expect it from some of the members but I would think the devs would try a bit harder. No amount of repeat questions or pressure excuses any negative action.

I really think the majority of XDA (especially the developers that think the world owes them everything) has serious personality issues.

Makes me glad I'm getting an iPhone.
[Atrix 4G General] Rickroller:
I get where you are coming from. But let's also look at it this way.. After you show your friend exactly what he needs to do..now someone else comes by and see's what you did..and also wants you to show him. Your first buddy leaves and tells his other friends that you know exactly what they need to do in order to get the awesomeness. Pretty soon..there are 25 people lined up waiting..and they all want your one by one attention.

Instead of dealing with each one individually..you decide to write the steps on some paper..so that everyone can just follow along with the steps. Seems easy enough right? But now some of those people waiting in line are just skimming the page of notes you left..and not really reading the directions..and now want you to help them with what they did wrong. So you help a few of them..but soon enough there are more and more people asking you exactly the same questions..for stuff you've already laid out for them on paper. Getting frustrated yet? Unless your Pope John Paul the L337..or the second coming of Christ..i'm sure you'll begin to sense some frustration.

I know it sucks to read through hundreds of pages of replies...but chances are you will probably learn something along the way.
