HB 1.5 Unlocked S-On, can't flash any ROM.

---

Okay, here's the problem.
I have an EVO 3D
Hboot 1.50 S-On
HTC Dev method unlocked,
TWRP Recovery.

I'm currently runing a GB Rom, Warm Two Point Three, Its awesome, the best GB rom for me.

But its time to move on to ICS, the fact is that every time i try to flash an ICS Rom, I get in a Bootloop. It shows the boot animation, and it starts for like 4 seconds it shows the wallpaper and the notification bar, and it f*cking boots again and again.

I tried basic wipes, superwipes, modifiedsuperwipes.
I also tried to go back to stock 2.17 Rom, and walk it all along rooting and trying to flash an ICS Rom, but the RUU 2.17 failed every time, and it doesnt give a damn reason.
I even tried to update to Hboot 1.58, but didnt worked, in the bootloader, it detects the .zip file, and analize it, but it doesnt prompt for instalation, it just skip it and go to the normal bootloader screen.

I think its a problem just with this Evo, I flashed the ICSMeanROM to 3 Evos 3D, my wife, my brother, and a friend, and everyone worked very well.

So, im just able to flash my GB Warm two point three rom, and thats the only one that works i think.
Im not a total noob, i just have been a few moths out of the 3VO field.


Any ideas?
Thank you guys

ICS tends to bootloop for people who are s-on. Get s-off using the wire trick, flash an ICS custom ROM and your all set.

Okay, I think I dont have anywere else to run, I'm going to prepare my stuff.
Thank you dude

Just go to 100% stock, take the OTA and unlock it again.

When I chose to do S-off, it was the best thing to do. If you need any help let me know im sure i can find the links again for it

Try the following steps,

1. go to recovery > wipe & factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, go to mounts and storage, wipe system, data, cache, sd card... everything u can find there... wipe all..
2. in recovery DO NOT REBOOT, turn off phone
3. go to android development of evo 3d gsm, find a rom, for example mikrunny 1.06, open the archive extract the boot.img from the kernel folder.
4. assuming u have android sdk installed on ur computer, make a new folder and from the android sdk tools copy adb.exe, fastboot.exe, adbwinapi.dll (exact same files u used to unlock bootloader). also in this folder put that boot.img you extracted from the rom
5. put that folder in C:\
6. get back to phone , still DO NOT BOOT UP YET, and power up phone in bootloader mode (vol down & power) and go to fastboot
7. connect phone to pc in fastboot usb mode
8. open command prompt, type cd c:\"folder" ("folder" = folder u created with the sdk tools)
9. type in cmd: fastboot flash boot boot.img
10. after it's completed, go to recovery, still do not boot up phone
11. in recovery go to mounts and storage, usb storage and now copy the whole rom and nothing but the rom on the sd card
12. install zip from sdcard, select rom and let it install, it should boot up automatically

steps were given by SeptimiuB, I am just replying to your query because I've gone through the same mess and recovered as well.

Just be sure to unlock your bootloader and install a recovery before trying the above steps.

Cheers.
