So you did all of that already?

If so you are ready to flash the recovery. If you have a recovery.img file in the same directory as your ADB/fastboot, put the phone back into "fastboot USB" mode and issue the following commands:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot boot recovery.img

The second command should put you into the recovery.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] trey41303:
Ok, which recovery should I be using? People say to use 4ext, but I have yet to find that
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Yea, I'd recommend 4EXT. You can download it from here, then put in your ADB/fastboot directory and rename it to "recovery.img".

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] trey41303:
got 4EXT thank you, renamed it recovery.img, placed in my c:/android

tried to fastboot flash and get this response....im face palming here
[HTC EVO 3D] trey41303:
Phones eye view

Here is my phone in boot loader mode as of now
[HTC EVO 3D] trey41303:
And the screen showing its unlocked

Did you see the previous pic...seems something is wrong....I am trying to find the instructions I was using to flash a new rom when I found that the initial recovery img didn't work

Seems it said if your "s-off"...do this to flash a new rom, or do this to flash a rom and permanently root/place recovery I g on phone. And I did the latter
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Everything looks correct in your photos.

Those "errors" are just the bootloader searching for signed files to flash in the root or your SD card but there aren't any there so that's OK.

Can you do a "dir" command in your ADB/fastboot directory and post the output here?

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] trey41303:
You may have lost me here

this is what I came up with
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
That's what I thought. ;)

You have two '.img" extensions on the recovery file.

Delete one of those and try those commands again.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] trey41303:
did that, also noticed one was named recovery.img.img got that down to one img and now im booted into 4ext...what rom do you recommend, what should work?

once i get a rom downloaded to my computer, do i fastboot flash it to my phone? about to read your original post again now that im into the recovery
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Now that you have a recovery, you can probably flash this stock rooted ROM and go for S-OFF with the wire trick. Just go to my guide and start with Step3 after you flash that ROM. If it doesn't work you can go back and flash the RUU but most people are able to get S-OFF with a stock rooted ROM and then you can flash anything you want.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] trey41303:
so start at step 3 here

then go to step 3 *wire method after that?

"OTA_Shooter_ICS_35_S_Sprint_WWE_2.89.651.2-2.17.651.5

Step 1

Flash Stock Firmware (Includes new HBoot but this doesn't take your root if your dev unlocked) (Thanks Mike1986) put this file on the root of your sd card and boot into bootloader. When prompted hit volume up key to install.

Stock Firmware Zip

Step 2

Reboot to recovery and install the super wipe zip.

Superwipe zip

Step 3

Flash the rooted rom and enjoy!!!

Stock ICS Rooted Deodex Zip

Guys i updated all the gapps and put them in the data/app partition so you can uninstall if you don't want them Now its time for me to take a 2 hr nap before a LONG DAY tom!!!"

***Step3: Perform JuopunutBear (wire trick) to get S-OFF status

btw, can't thank you enough for the help! you're my hero here
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Yes.

Boot into recovery and wipe everything using "format all partitions except SD card" in the 4EXT wipe/format menu then install the ROM as a zip file from your SD card. Boot into the ROM to make sure it's operational and go into the developer options and make sure debug is on, then you are ready to try the wire trick.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] trey41303:
well, did the wire trick and it kept having trouble after the wire part...said it failed...then phone was stuck in the junobear screen...I was finally able to re flash the recovery and boot into it but my SD card is not mounting...I am still stuck on the juopunu screen on the phone after a battery pull

I just booted into fastboot and tried "factory reset" and get a realy slow loading 4ext.

tried repairing my sd card through 4ext, I don't have a card reader for my pc so Im kind of stuck hear...I did a wipe of everything and starting to second guess that...its 4am in TX i think I am about to crash and just go phoneless tomorrow
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
The best thing to do when you are having trouble with the wire trick is to watch the video in the tips and references section and keep trying. There is a restore/recovery option in the controlbear utility but I don't think it is going to work now that you did a reset.

I'm really not sure what your best option is at this point but if you can get back into recovery you should be able to flash the same stock rooted ROM. You may have to format your SD card and restore it from the backup on your PC. I think controlbear backs it up before doing the wire trick and restores it afterwards but that requires completing the process or one of the "ROM / Data Recovery" options from their troubleshooting page.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] jaredl45600:
check your file. make sure you did not rename it recovery.img.img. also, you may have to obtain s-off and get a diffrent h-boot to get fastboot commands to work. i have the 3d flashed to cricket running a custom rom... so i do not get the ota's
[HTC EVO 3D] trey41303:
Ok I got back into stock rooted ics! Is it possible to just flash a rom now using 4ext or would I just have to get s-off?

Or based on my competence should I just leave well enough alone
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Sure, you can flash most Sense based ROM's with S-ON and hboot 1.58. Have at it!

You can always go for S-OFF later. ;)

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] trey41303:
Well....Ramjet73 you pumped me full of enough knowledge to get my phone back up and running Stock ICS rooted and it feels good to have a phone that works...but BLUETOOTH won't turn on or work for me. This is the only problem I have found so far.

So after failing at S-Off again I decided to just put another ROM on it, in hopes of fixing Bluetooth. Tried mean rom and Venom i think...Venom says it installed...upon reboot it never gets past the boot animation (let it try for about 45 minutes earlier). Tried mean today and it won't get past the unpacking or one of the other basic stages of installation so I am back on stock ICS. Am I missing something? Now my SD card is only 2Gb that came with the phone. My 16Gb was fried during my 1st S-Off attmept and isn't repairable according to Windows 7. Are these roms not matching the Kernel or something? Do I just need a better SD card? I am sure there are extra steps I am missing required to flash a rom with S-On....followed several guides here and there seems to always be 1 step that I am getting hung up on, like the S-Off wire trick etc..

QUESTION: Anyone know of a rom that gets the bloatware off of the phone, maybe optimizes some battery life/speed that I could just flash from recovery? Is there any way to get the "system update available" notification to go away? Can I accept that update in my current state?

HBOOT 1.58

Android 4.0.3

HTC Sense 3.6

Software ver 2.89.651.2 710RD

Kernel ver 3.0.16

baseband 1.09
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Flashing ROM's with S-ON can be tricky. I cover some alternative methods for flashing a kernel while S-ON in this post.

If you are trying to use 4EXT SmartFlash that will only work if your current kernel is bootable, and sometimes it's hard to know that. My preference when starting out is to use the fastboot method by putting your phone into the "fastboot usb" mode and issuing the following command from the PC:

That will start the recovery in a mode that allows it to flash the boot partition (kernel) even while S-ON, something that the other methods for starting recovery don't allow. To use this method with 4EXT make sure that SmartFlash/S-ON is disabled in the tools menu otherwise it will still try to flash the boot.img after booting whatever kernel (if any) is installed and that's what causes problems.

I think you can remove the check from the HTC updates settings in the stock ROM to stop the notifications. You don't need to worry about installing the OTA again since your firmware has already been updated and flashing a custom ROM should eliminate the update notifications.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] trey41303:
OK, That makes SENSE! so if I launch Recovery using vol down/power after a battery pull it boots some or all of the kernel...if I use the fastboot method it doesn't - that is the reason I was able to fix my phone by fastboot flash recovery recovery.img ....fastboot boot recovery.img then flashing the stock ics rooted rom....

The main reason I am still trying to get this done is Bluetooth stopped working after I did that - is that common?
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
There's a patch for the bluetooth problem with that rooted stock ROM further down in the thread.

I didn't think you were going to be keeping that ROM so I didn't mention that.

You could try a factory reset from the bootloader, backup your stuff first if needed. You can use a app called carbon for that, its free in the playstore and it does not need root acces !

Hold the power button and the volume down button together as long as it takes to see the bootloader. Once you are in there you press the volume down button until factory reset is highlighted and press the power button.

Hopefully the issue is gone.

First thing, I noticed you put the E4G as your model, yet said E4GT in your OP. If your phone is rebooting, then all is not lost. You are in a boot loop.

Once it reboots, if it doesn't boot to recovery, pull battery, reboot into recovery, and you should boot into your custom recovery and be good to go. Good luck

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gizmoscoop:
I am not sure what you are asking since you are aware of Odin and Heimdall. Are you asking if you can still reinstall the Valhalla rom back?

You don't need the USB jig. You can access Odin or Heimdall by putting the phone in download mode. Follow the instructions in the guide.

Reboot recovery. Wipe cache and dalvik. Fix permissions. Reboot. If that doesn't do it you'll have to factory reset.
