See my post. Download 3.30 RUU and install. If you get a 170 USB Error uninstall all android USB drivers and install new version of HTC sync from HTC.com
[EVO 4G Android Development] 94tbird:
no i get that. I can recover back to the phone. I meant a fix to actually get past this to root the phone
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShadowDrake:
I am attempting to do it manually right now, I'm getting an error on the radio section which you may very well be too. If I get it to work I'll post my files and process.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 94tbird:
Ok. I got past the radio and bootloader failures. now i have S-OFF!!!!! YESSSS

but i am still not root, at least according to titanium backup. What am i missing now?

Major Major props to amoamare

Thank you, thank you, thank you amoamare! Since I've gotten my last EVO two weeks ago I've tried EVERY SINGLE root method there is from unrevoked, to z4root, nothing has worked, and I mean nothing has gotten past Sprint's new 3.30 blocks but I successfully S-OFFed, downloaded super user from the market, then installed ROM Verison (ad-free) and I flashed Amon-RA recovery, all is good so far I will keep you updated once I install a customer recovery, but your work is truly appreciated and I will be donating for sure. **IMPORTANT** for the people saying they are getting error, please be sure to install the customer USB drivers in HBOOT USB
[EVO 4G Android Development] rmars:
if you are having issues not "root" or having the options, go into market, download Superuser, then download rom manager, make sure you have superuser installed then run rom manager flash customer recovery, then ur good to go, flash a custom rom.

did you install the customer drivers and ensure HTC SYNC was uninstalled? If not this may have caused the problem.
[EVO 4G Android Development] poppyseth:
One quick question before I give this a shot... amoamare mentioned that all the drivers are included with this tool... when I initiate the tool does it install the drivers or do I need to do that manually? Thanks for the help!
[EVO 4G Android Development] rmars:
uninstall HTC SYNC, turn your phone off, go to HBOOT USB and hit your power button, plug in your phone to your computer goto my computer, right click on the android device and manually push the driver to your computer its a special android bootloader driver. then, reboot your phone ensure usb debugging, install from unknown sources and always stay awake are on in the settings/programs/developers section. Then run the newest beta version of the root method

I ran dgrade hboot and now my screen doesnt turn on. Does anyone have any suggestions beside returning my phone to sprint.
[EVO 4G Android Development] amoamare:
GDiesel,

You need the latest dotNET frame work v 4

darkansi,

I removed the Downgrade HBoot for the specific reason on people clicking on it, and not knowing what it does or not knowing how to recover from it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gmramirez1973:
Do you or anybody knows how to recover from it because I have the same problem. Thanks.:(
[EVO 4G Android Development] BrashL:
Same here. Phone responds but no screen

Interestingly the RUU bootloader will identify it, but fail when it trys to load the boot loader, so it looks like we killed the bootloader and therefore the rest of the phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] darkansi:
I know with the desire you were able to go in with a PC36IMG and follow through the motions to do an update but it didnt work for me.

I already did an rma, but still other have the same issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BrashL:
Does anyone know of a signed zip that i can flash through fastboot and recover the bootloader?
[EVO 4G Android Development] darkansi:
Theoretically if you have an hboot 2.02 update file and name it PC36IMG then it should install on boot up. But this is assuming that downgrading the hboot only knocked out the screen compatibility.

Haven't tried yet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipper12:
amoamare - So with the few of us that have hardware issues...

... and are getting the PUfail when going through the process, do you think it's feasible that a workaround in the near future is possible or are we stuck with these phones since exchanging them at Sprint isn't too likely since the phone technically works.....

I'm hoping that there is some sort of workaround that can be achieved.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BrashL:
And I think it did more than that. I can access the phone in fastboot so I have something going, but I've tried to put a pc36IMG and push the buttons by memory. No dice. I have one more thing to try tonight, then I'm out of ideas.
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipper12:
PU-Fail

amoamare - Saw this info on SDX developers and not sure if any of the info on that post might help overcome the PU-Fail message but I thought you might find it helpful.

[EVO 4G Android Development] darkansi:
If you have access to fastboot, then you can use the RUU (not sure if it will upgrade the hboot, but it should.)

Success for 003 / HBoot 2.02:

I have HW version 003, with the 3.30.651.2, and using windows 7 64 bit.

I've recently tried Unrevoked3 3.21, with no success. Gave a misc partition issue error.

Then I tried these manual steps:

[TOOL][ROOT][GUIDE] HBoot 2.02 S-OFF - Updated

*

Rate Thread

which didn't work for me.

Then I tried this one (Making sure that I ran the 7.1 beta).

This failed with a .net error, as I didn't have the latest .net updates.

So... I switched OS's and computers entirely, going with a 32bit windows XP Pro.

I decided to re-try the 7.1 beta (links for files at the beginning of this post), and it seems to have worked. My phone looks to be downgraded to 2.1 firmware, and wiped clean.

I checked and I have HBOOT 2.02 and Root access, by the look of the menu options I have there. I also checked with the method in the manual thread listed above, and that also gave me a root prompt.

I think that, after reviewing everything, I would suggest not having Norton turned on during this, and I would also suggest 32 bit XP with .net updates... and lots of luck :)

Excellent work, gentlemen! :)

The above is what I used to get back to 2.1 with root. From there I "did not use unrevoked method." Instead I got the recovery and hboot .76.2000 and upgraded to 2.2 like that. I am hardware version 004 and everything is fine. I can use clockwork to backup/restore but I have to backup manually and then rename it. Other than that, no issues.both recoveries work as well, Amon Ra or clockwork through Rom Manager.

I find myself stuck at the HTC screen with the little triangle/exclamation points. I've tried running the stock RUU, but have not had any luck. I keep getting the usb connectivity error. I've tried uninstalling the drivers, htc sync, and reinstalling sync, but continue to get the error. Any ideas?. The EVO I possibly bricked is an insurance replacement... and I would hate to have to get another one.

:EDIT: Googled HTC Sync and found the new version. Installed that and the EVO is back to running stock again. I'm going to hold off for a little bit before trying again. To all the contributors in this thread, thank you for all your efforts. I'll be lurking in the background to see how you guys are making out.

[EVO 4G Android Development] dan0412:
Hey Amoamare, quick question: does this tool make S-OFF permanent? After rooting with this tool, I unrooted by running the RUU_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.30.651.2_Radio_2.15.00.09.01_NV_1.77_003 update. The phone is now 'stock' I suppose - I no longer have su/root permission; however bootloader is still showing S-OFF. Shouldn't it be S-ON?

Edit: NVM..... figured it out.

Download this and install it on your computer...

Then download this RUU and install it.....

Then you can either re-root or you can OTA back to the newest update.

[EVO 4G Android Development] catseyenu:
He just did.

Anti virus software uses heuristic detection which is often little more than a last gasp Hail Mary looking for suspicious patterns (profiling if you will). They often blacklist newer packers because they are can be used to pack malware to prevent detection & the AV companies PR dept. wants to be able to say they detect all threats.

Just because a bad player has blue eyes doesn't mean all blue eyed people are bad.

I tried the 7.1 beta on two separate Evo's: a brand new one with the 2.02 hboot and an older one that I upgraded the hboot to 2.02.

The program worked great on the phone that was updated. It failed miserably on the new Evo though. Has anyone precisely identified the case as to why some of the Evo's don't work with this program yet?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dtlach:
what is the hardware version of your brand new EVO? I have a fairly new EVO and don't remember if it came with hboot 2.02 or if I updated the hboot when I rooted. Just want to make sure I don't brick my Hardware 0004. Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] hippy420:
So after i do this, just verifying, it will delete all my apps and contacts ect?

(not like i can't get them back but just wondering)
[EVO 4G Android Development] m4f1050:
So the dreaded black screen has a solution? What hardware do you have? With 3.26 cant you just use good ole unrevoked3? Give it a shot and post back... :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxSLRxx:
Unfortunately, I don't have that Evo anymore (I work in a cellphone store so they come and go). Also, I don't think you can truly brick your phone with this program. Worst case scenario is you get a soft brick (the black screen with the triangles that everyone is describing). If that happens just run the RUU file to reload the OS and get you back where you started.
[EVO 4G Android Development] m4f1050:
So it's a 2-step process... because once you get the black screen with triangles you can then run the RUU that puts you in 3.29 then you can run Unrevoked3 right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Knight2011:
What do you do once you get to the black screen with htc in the center and the four triangle one in each corner? and if i need a ruu where do i get it? thanks

[EVO 4G Android Development] nrage23:
Is this working wit rev 004 phones?
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxSLRxx:
I wouldn't call it a 2-step program. The program should work without soft bricking the phone (at least it did on one of the Evo's I tried). I'm just saying that if the program fails and your phone ends up soft bricked, you can use the RUU to reload the OS. Running the RUU doesn't remove the S-ON; it just gets you back where you started.
[EVO 4G Android Development] m4f1050:
Right, you then would have to ROOT the phone and with 3.29 you should be able to use Unrevoked3... That's what I'm trying to figure out here.. I don't have any 3.30 EVO so I can't test it...
[EVO 4G Android Development] tinfox:
I'll let you know in a bit.

I just got an evo last week with 004 hardware.

I managed to get it rooted via adb pushing and shoving.

Then I thought hey I'll just put ROM Manager (so I had to flash clorkwork recovery mod) on it and flash on CM6 (like my hero) So somehow permissions got so jacked up it hung on boot so I tried RUU_Supersonic_1.32.651.1_Radio_1.39.00.04.26_release_171253 and it got about 3/4 of the way done and decided my **** was too jacked up and quit.

Now I'm sitting here with the black HTC screen with four triangles in the corners.

I was only rooting to fix a problem my wife had with the voice dialing via bluetooth wasn't working. It would just turn on the speaker phone instead of hearing thru the headset (plantronics voyager pro+)

Anyway I'll post back if this RUU works.
