Make sure you remove your current old recovery from your SD card.
You need to flash the stock recovery. Then you need to fastboot oem lock. Should lock you.
Then you need to find the latest RUU or PC86IMG.ZIP to put stock rom back on.
Then your all set
I threw in the stock recovery. For CDMA. Anyways have fun..

Sorry, stopped checking this thread...Through all the links I ended up at Scott Scrosler's web site and got the file from there. It worked. It might have been from someone earlier in this thread.
I don't have the links anymore.

I've got my stock recovery flashed and my phone relocked. I can't get the PG86IMG downloaded but do have a RUU.exe. Do I just run this from the computer since it's an executable file?
EDIT: Actually the RUU Stock exe is still downloading. Thought I'd ask in advance.
Sup man yes you can run the ruu from bootloader I did had to relock my phone cause I got stuck in 1X HELLLLL lol seriously tho I did...
Just now got all my **** back on track 3g working and so on..

I meant completely relock.
When you relock the phone .... On hboot 1.5 at the top in hboot it says RELOCKED in pink letters... I ran latest RUU still said RELOCKED
I don't know about the S-off users if they unroot might say LOCKED instead of RELOCKED I can't confirm that since I am Hboot 1.5
Also when you RELOCK your phone it wipes your recovery off it....
Only way to run the RUU was to RELOCK from what I have read other wise the RUU won't work.... I haven't tested that to see...

I think you have to type in:
"fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin" (without quotes)
I had a question and hopefully someone can point me to the right direction. I relocked my Evo 3D with the instructions above. When I run the RUU_Shooter_S_Sprint_WWE_2.08.651.2_Radio_0.97.10.0808_NV_SPCS_1.31_003_release_208230, I get a signature error. This is the exact same version and build I have on the phone. Should I download the latest one, which is 2.17.651.5? I'm not understanding why it's not working. I have also downloaded the PGIMG86 file but I can't get to it because I can't get to Recovery when I'm on the HBOOT menu. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

With that zip it should work in hboot when you click on bootloader...... Should take off...
I would run the latest Ruu 2.17 I haven't had any issues when it comes to relockin and using it...
Also before you relocked your phone always a good idea to wipe fully then relock your phone.
Thanks for the quick reply reaper24, but unfortunately I followed some directions that didn't say anything about wiping the data first although I should know better. I downloaded a few more and more recent RUUs and have the same signature error. From what I am reading, it has to do with the token I guess and I need to run the adb unlock token command? I guess I need to try that when I get home tonight. Unless there is something else I am missing.....

Can someone confirm, I should be deleteing recoveryimg, twrp shooterimg and bootimg once relock has been done in order to return to full stock? If its not needed please tell me so...I'm relocked already and would like to upgrade to 2.17 which I'm dowloading as I type just want to be sure I delete all necessary files...
thanks
thanks
When I did it, I just relocked which appeared to remove the custom recovery, and then ran the renamed Ruu PG86IMG.zip file from root of sdcard in hboot. I have used both 651.3 & 651.5 versions at various times. I tried the 651.5 exe version and it errored out. Probably a bad DL.

Unrooting GSM 1.22.707.4 on HBOOT 1.49.0011
I rooted my EVO using the method in this thread
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=124823
Now, I need to return my phone and can't seem to find a way to unroot it. I downloaded the RUU for the Asian version 1.23.709.4 but when I ran it it gave the Customer ID error which is according to the Read Me,
ERROR [131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR
One of these error messages will appear when you use the wrong RUU to do the update. The RUU will check if the Model ID and Language ID are compatible with the Android phone. Make sure you use the correct RUU to update.
I locked, relocked the boatloader and ran the RUU but nothing, the error pops up and the phone reboots.

Never mind...got it & successfully unrooted my EVO.

3d unroot wtf??
ok been at this a couple days but this is the issue im having. I have an evo 3d cdma that has the teamwin recovery rom on it. When I access the bootloader it reads:
***unlocked***
shooter xc ship s-on rl
hboot-1.50.000
eMMC-boot
Aug 7 2011, 10:21:40
I got the phone this way and am trying to remove the teamwin rom. I tried using the pg86img.zip evo 3d and it starts loading with a blue status bar on the side of the screen then when the statuse bar finishes it takes me back to the original screen with the options (fastboot....ect) but no indication of a completed update. Also tried using Unlocking Bootloader Instructions from HTC to turn the s-on to s-off to try and relock the phone. Ruu wil not work because the ROM is not correct. LOOKIN FOR ANY CLUES!!!!!

Not quite sure from your post what you are trying to accomplish, but ROM's and Recovery's are not the same. You have TeamWinRecovery not a Rom.
- Are you trying to Relock and Restore to stock?
- Are you trying to update the phone to 2.17?
If not, I suggest you stay unlocked. If you want more info on flashing, unlocking, using & Flashing a different recovery, etc. See the Guide/flashing notes in my signature, it will cover a lot of the basics for you.

14I have noticed a lot of people asking how to unroot their 3d and return back to stock after unlocking with HTCDEV. Here's how:
Step 1: Download the RUU for your phone:
CDMA: PG86IMG.zip
GSM: GSM RUUs
(There are more GSM RUUs than CDMA, so here's all of them.)
Rogers RUU link is here.
Step 2: Place the PG86IMG.zip (CDMA- GSM will be similar) on the root of your sdcard.
Step 3: Reboot to recovery and wipe everything (Dalvik, cache, data, system, factory reset)
Step 4: Plug in your phone and reboot to bootloader via ADB
Code:adb reboot bootloader
Step 5: Boot into Hboot and allow the RUU zip to flash to the phone.
Step 6: Boot into fastboot
Step 7: Relock your bootloader
Code:fastboot oem lock
Setp 8: Reboot.
Note: Your bootloader will say *** RELOCKED *** after you're done. That is how your carrier and HTC will know you've unlocked. There is no way to avoid this yet.
***** Make sure you put the CORRECT RUU image on you sdcard. If you have Sprint you're CDMA, if not, you're GSM. Don't mix the two up.
If you want to unlock your phone again after relocking, boot into fastboot and type:
That's assuming you still have the Unlock_code.bin. If you don't, you'll have to re-do all the steps on HTCDEVCode:fastboot flash Unlock_Code.bin
GSM RUUs from Football's thread here
CDMA RUU from Mr.ESP's post here2Make sure you remove your current old recovery from your SD card.
You need to flash the stock recovery. Then you need to fastboot oem lock. Should lock you.
Then you need to find the latest RUU or PC86IMG.ZIP to put stock rom back on.

Since you are locked S-on, you just need to run the ruu.exe for your carrier/location (check the CDMA or GSM development stickies). Also, you need to remove the zip from the sd card, otherwise, you get into a bootloader bootloop like you're in.1thanks to bebolf for having it in his dropbox and posting a link here ive gone ahead and uploaded the Rogers RUU to multiupload ... see below link, will post in footballs thread in gsm forum..
