It is quick, less than 5 seconds for sure. I cannot go back and do it again right now. I need to use the phone for work today. Ill be able to do it tonight.
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
I'm getting the same io error at the same place. It says it success. Then when u try to exit to the menu is said you need to unbrick like it wasn't done with the process even though it said success put battery in and boot up.

Oh and my 3g doesn't work any more.

Completely Lost

Can anyone here who has successfully executed the cd fix walk me through this on a chat? I've used adb in the past including trying the older manual fix on the original thread (didn't work for me) but this one has me completely lost.

Filefactory free slots are all taken, so I want to make sure this is the correct RUU for 1.13, it looks like a 1.13 RUU but want to confirm that everyone is using this exact one. Got this from goo.me

Mine worked. Pri 453 or whatever it is. It ends in 3. Sprint banner. Seems to have worked. While roaming I can call, get calls. But I can't get or send texts. I guess that's on sprints side idk. Thanks again unknownand co!
[HTC EVO 3D] majid25:
stuck at waiting for device...using the liveCD by close one. I see there is an RC2/3 that fixes device detection. Will there be an update to the liveCD? Many thanks to unknown for putting this out, cant wait to get this fixed soon.
[HTC EVO 3D] Unknownforce:
Updated to RC3 now.

although the download link is down until dev-host comes back up... they are down for some maintenance or something? IDK...

Anyways... here's the latest updates:

- Attempt to fix "sh: 1: Syntax error: Bad fd number" error.

- Add -f switch to attempt to fix I/O errors on possibly bad sectored emmc's

The -f switch will require being in a temp bricked state before using, if this successfully recovers them, I can add this into the process of the radio fix, for now I want to see if it's going to work at all, so it's a manual process for now, to brick device, Be S-OFF, flash custom hboot(anything but stock) and do fastboot oem writesecureflag 3, done... This is ONLY for those having I/O errors when trying to flash radio config. The usage is ./ultimate -f 19 (19 is partition 19/radio_config)
[HTC EVO 3D] spirithandler:
Nevermind next time I need to read the new posts before I post something!
[HTC EVO 3D] Mexiking10:
Unknown pointed out that dev-host is down for now.. I'll be booting up linux and trying the new tool, hopefully with more success. Appreciate the prompt updates Unknown. After my check this week I'll be sending a donation your way.

Edit: Dev-host is back up.
[HTC EVO 3D] Unknownforce:
closeone is the one that has been releasing the liveCD. I don't have access to what he's got for that. I know that he's been really busy himself lately, so he'll update when he can. I have messaged him already asking him to update it, I will speak on his behalf and say please don't PM him asking for it as he's quite busy himself. He'll get around to it when he can.

Not sure what they were doing in the middle of the day... haha...
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Someone bare with me, the RUU is constantly getting an error. I've loaded a stock ROM to be sure. I've been on the engineer hboot long before this. My question is, do I need to load a 1.4 hboot for it to successfully boot into bootloader? Someone PM on how they did it cause nothing is working. The one thing I have to struggled with in Android has to be an RUU, lmfao.

The RUU is struggling to reboot into bootloader, once it reboots device detection fails. Booting into fastboot doesn't help either cause it doesn't even detect the device.

And yes, I'm running it through Windows.
[HTC EVO 3D] majid25:
Thanks unknown for the update. I have one question. So I flashed everything in order and I'm on 1.13, eng hboot, s-off. and all that needs to be done is the Linux part. Can i install other roms or is it best for me to wait till closeone prepares a cd?
[HTC EVO 3D] Unknownforce:
The fix requires you to be on a stock rom, because it turns S-ON back on, if you are on a custom rom, it will not be able to boot after this.

Also it's best to be on a stock rom when going through the activation process.
[HTC EVO 3D] sonicice:
I am getting the same thing with RC3. The last line is "Segmentation fault (core dumped)"
[HTC EVO 3D] majid25:
I mean to say, I want to install a custom rom while I wait for a new CD to be made. Once the CD is made, I'll go back to stock rom. Right now what I want to do, is get root with revolutionary/flash a custom recovery and just mess with some roms and when the time comes I'll do the steps again (flash 1.13 RUU, VM firmware, 2.17 firmware, and ENG Hboot)
[HTC EVO 3D] Unknownforce:
That's up to you. I don't know how long it will be before he updates it.

As to the latest set of errors, give me a few to fix those as well, the problem is different forms of linux allow different forms of output stream redirection.. I made it redirect most "unnecessary" output to /dev/null (nowhere) and that obviously doesn't seem to be working in the manner I have it setup.

RC4 soon...
[HTC EVO 3D] majid25:
Alright thanks, I just wanted to make sure that it wouldnt mess anything up being on the ENG hboot and all. I thought I would run into problems
[HTC EVO 3D] spirithandler:
I am running the latest Ubuntu 12.04 if thats any help!
[HTC EVO 3D] jlechner:
Try flashing the just the firmware for 1.13. Then try the ruu.

[HTC EVO 3D] sonicice:
It worked!! You are a beautiful man. PRI is at 1.42_003, PRL 21090, Back to Sprint banner! You are amazing. Thank you for all the effort you've put into this!
[HTC EVO 3D] Unknownforce:
Phew, those output errors were gonna drive me nuts. Glad to hear it's working now.
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Tring latest right now.

But just got a text from a friend sayin when he calls my phone someone else answers like it routing to a different number...
[HTC EVO 3D] spirithandler:
It finally ran through the whole process for me but I'm still on VM both banner and prl. ARGH my phone hates me!

I can post the transcript if you like but it gave no error's I also told it to go ahead and rebuild the RFG_1
[HTC EVO 3D] Unknownforce:
If you got a text from him on the number that he was calling, it's not routing to a different number, phone calls and texts still work on 1X and go through the same routes.

The I/O errors might be completely hidden now in RC4, you were getting them before yes?
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Ran rc4 still nothing. Im 0/6 with this tool... Still on virgin mobile. My phone no longer gets 3g. Supposedly my friend told me that a few people calling me called her phone instead so yea something is clearly wrong.. He said the person said they had a few calls for me..

That actually makes sense now.. All morning I been getting texts from random numbers likey know me...

I might just say f it and take it to sprint...

I tried RC1 on a CD [I had been using a USB and it kept freezing]. I am now on PRI 1.42_003, PRL 21090, Sprint banners everywhere, no VM settings in Data profile. Thank you guys!!!

Lucky. This hasnt worked at all for me and only made things worse. Some of my calls and texts are giong to another number, my 3g doesnt work and random numbers been texting me all morning like they know me...

This really screwed up my phone..
[HTC EVO 3D] spirithandler:
What is the first 4 # of the serial number on your phone? (use the command "adb devices" to look at this)

I am wondering if it has something to do with the issue?

Mine is SH 18
[HTC EVO 3D] Will32:
I've been following this pretty closely and I gotta say, your phone really hates you. Hope you get it figured out.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Are you talking about the VM firmware? Every time I search for 1.13 firmware, I come across ics VM firmware.

I think I'm about to give up. I simply cannot run the RUU. I keep getting usb not detectedonce it reboots to the bootloader with the black HTC screen..
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
HT16..
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
So has anyone had success with RC4 yet? I'm debating giving it a try, and also debating if I should use the Linux instructions on Ubuntu, or try a bootable usb flash drive.

Mine is also HT16, but it went through. I hope they find a fix for ya

I have never had that problem before it always worked the first time! I am telling you I think my phone hates me! lol

Also do you want my 19 image too since I am having the same problem the other member is having?
[HTC EVO 3D] Will32:
It always worked 1st time for me too, but on the new 3d I got not long ago, it took 3 tries. When it went to reboot into hboot it would just shut off the phone. After the 3rd time I tried it gave me s-off with revs hboot but it still didn't seem like it ran right.
[HTC EVO 3D] Unknownforce:
Yes, send me those.
[HTC EVO 3D] Unknownforce:
I'm not sure how, but you got my OLD OLD 3D's MEID... obviously it's been passed along to someone else at this point, but regardless... Nowhere in this tool HAS my (old) meid number in it... I'm not sure how this is even possible, did you run any of the other previous tests before RC1?
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
No. I never did any fixes or tests before this tool. When this came out all I did was flash 1.13 then , vm firmware, 2.17 firmware, and then hboot and used the cd. It went through fine the first two times but didnt work. Every other time after I got the io error up until this last time I did it on linux. It went through fine but didnt work still.
[HTC EVO 3D] Unknownforce:
Really don't know how it's possible... nowhere in my code is my old old meid... I'm gonna look at it all again real quick just to be certain, but in the mean time, what I'll do is manually rebuild your original one, and have you try and flash that.
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Thanks...

I sent you three different ones the very first one I dumped for you when you took on this project

one that I dumped just before I tried your test CD

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] flex360:
are these anything like those crappy, bulky ottobox cases?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] pdappcgeek:
No. Get the surface case by Seidio. It's the best combination of protection and thinness:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1GcPYHz3lg
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shellguy:
It all depends on which one you get. The surface is very nice for a day to day case which is what I have right now and it looks like the active is an inbetween. The convert combo is the most rugged of all of them. and the thickest.

Will
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] funcrusher:
Hmmm...I said I'd never buy seidio again but the surface may be my best option at this point. Hopefully it fits better than the one I had for my galaxy s II.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tes5884:
I personally prefer the Active combo. I go under desks all day.. IT, so yeah.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mbmike29:
I've been using the Seidio Surface case and holster with my original EVO and I *love* them. My ~2 year old phone still looks almost brand new.

Been waiting for these to become available, thanks for the heads up!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shellguy:
NP, Me as well, I am debaiting between a couple of them, since I see that there is a Convert Combo pack which includes the Surface Case & Holster / Convert Case & Holster. as well as a screen shield from them as well. I have this same thing now but don't use the convert much at all. I am not sure if I want to go with the Surface Kit or the Active Kit, thinking active just to be safe. and its got a nice metal kickstand.

Will
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AntBellJr:
I've used the Active combo on my OG evo, and the best PT one for my 3d. I'm in the same boat, and works really well...... I tend to have screwdrivers/screws/keys all the bad things in the world in my pockets
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] LTEvo:
Agreed. Mine still looks close to new as well. Now if someone can just find a coupon for this, would be bonus.

I think I paid 19$ for my evo 4g active. Just kills me to pay close to full price of $30, when you know it costs like 20 cents to produce.;)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] durandetto:
I have the active on my 3D and love it. Had the surface on my 4G and liked how thin it was but it fit loosely and scratched the edges of the phone. If they made the active with the kickstand accessible I would have ordered it yesterday. I need a case with a holster because I am a mechanic and can't keep my phone in my pocket.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] stanglifemike:
I just want a Seidio holster, no case this time around! I have over $300 in Otterbox(all 3), Seidio, etc. cases for my Evo 3D just sitting in a drawer never touched. All I ever use is the $25-30 Seidio belt holster that I purchased on sale from Amazon for $2.95 and free shipping. Was the same way with my Evo 4G. I always go case crazy an buy most of the big name cases out there. Not doing it again this time!! I may buy 1 nice case just to be prepared if I'm out doing something where I'll need the phone protected. Otherwise just a Seidio belt holster an I'm all set!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] smw6180:
That's the route I took as well....I always buy a Seidio case...this time I just got the holster for the naked phone. Tired of having a great looking phone that I never see. Unfortunately the damned holster showed up on Friday and it's sitting on my desk taunting me with the images of the phone that I am not allowed to have.

Plus no matter how good the case is, they can't replace the feel of the naked phone...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rubber guard:
anyone know of the lowest price for the seidio surface case? (or coupon codes used to get it lower)

shopandroid and htcpedia dont have it

seidio is offering 10% off via code: FB10

but you have to pay tax (at least in texas) and shipping

also, the PT/Platinum series at best buy is the exact same case, but its $35 (at least online).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bikemechanic0128:
I usually get mine through Amazon, but I don"t think it will be available there for a while. I used show2012 for 15 percent off yesterday. Still seems to work. My sister just cracked the screen on her nexus. So its made me paranoid and I don't want to be without a case.

Ended up going with the active case this time. I had the rugged extended on my Evo 4g. Trying for something a little thinner this time. I'm too hard on my phone for just the surface case. Even after almost 2 years my Evo still looks brand new. Wife has the active and it feels pretty nice.

I have had a seidio case on my last 5 phones going back to the Mogul. I have cracked a few seidio cases, but there always was a pretty good drop associated with it. I look at it this way, If my phone cartwheels down a drive way and I trash the case, it did its job. Ill buy a new case.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rubber guard:
i had the active (actually two different ones, I had to get a replacement shipped to me) on my evo for almost all of the last 2 years. i took it off a month or so ago because i got an extended battery. looks almost brand new.

Im going with surface because i think i can handle a little less protection based on my habbits (never cracked/broken any phone in 8 years as cell phone owner)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] durandetto:
I have an active on my 3D and love it. Just wish the one for the LTE allowed access to the oe kickstand. I had a surface for my OG, but the edges of the phone got scratched from the plastic on plastic contact.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] LTEvo:
Thanks for the SHOW2012 code. It basically cancels out the shipping cost of 5$ :)

Yup, the platinum series at BB is the exact same thing at $5 more.

---------- Post added at 02:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 AM ----------

Well, apparently amazon has the seidio cases already.

http://www.amazon.com/Seidio-CSR3HT..._20?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1337822438&sr=1-20

I just ordered it for 27$ w/shipping. :D

Still cheaper than seidio with the coupon.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bikemechanic0128:
That's my luck. Wasn't any available on amazon when I checked a few days ago and just got an Email today from Seidio. 5 off cases with MEM5 and 10 off combos with MEM10. Also I wanted to have it before I went back to work Saturday night. Ill have the case and holster on Friday. So only one day without protection.
