Hey there I tried downloading the tool for the unbranded EVO twice now (which took ages) and both times step2.exe doesn't extract out of the archive,

The zip file seems to be corrupted because step2.exe is in the archive but doesn't extract -
please can you re-upload a non corrupt version please?

Just recently I helped a friend to s-off his Evo with this tool. Took a while to download but did the job perfectly. Maybe you should try redownloading.

Like I said I downloaded TWICE and step2.exe doesn't extract it says that that file is corrupted in both downloads. Took 4 hours to download twice. and the SAME file is corrupted.

Thanks, and apologies to both of you for making you guys check. In the end I found out that my anti-virus (Avast) was quarantining Step2.exe without even notifying me. It thought that Step2.exe was a malicious tool. I switched off the anti-virus and it worked.

As appreciation for your answers and for putting up the 3 steps in a seperate file I've thanked you both. :fingers-crossed:

that's amazing. I love false positivs. There are only a few commands running using adb and fastboot not more not less :p
good that it worked out.

you can now watch a video where you see how to do it. But quality, sorry I have no good camera.


This will downgrade your hboot to 1.49.0007
If you is branded by any other carrier then vodafone, this won't work. (Unbranded Device's too)
Why is that so? Because it is not possible til now to debrand your device.
I have tried plenty things with some friends, sadly no luck at all.
CID changing does not work for branded devices, if there is not more than one RUU.

Unbranded:
This Tool will work, if your device has one of the following CID's.
Code: 
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__032
cidnum: HTC__A07
cidnum: HTC__102
cidnum: HTC__304
cidnum: HTC__203
cidnum: HTC__E11
cidnum: HTC__N34
cidnum: HTC__405
cidnum: HTC__Y13
cidnum: HTC__016
cidnum: HTC__J15

Vodafone Branded:
This Tool will work, if your device has one of the following CID's.
Code: 
cidnum: VODAP001
cidnum: VODAP102
cidnum: VODAPE17
cidnum: VODAP304
<[B]New[/B]>
cidnum: VODAP120
cidnum: VODAP203

If your cid is not on the list, you cannot downgrade your device yet.

How to:
  • Download this Tool for an unbranded device
  • Download this Tool for a vodafone branded device
  • Download this Tool for a vodafone branded device with CID VODAP120 OR VODAP203!
  • RUN Step1.exe
  • RUN Step2.exe
  • RUN Step3.exe



It might stuck at the very end of the procedure.

Don't worry, it's okay. Just remove battery and reboot.

Please, if you are experience problems, describe everything you have done and I will try to help.

Have fun and enjoy your freedom.

Always remember; you are a noob on xda :) I am also one, so does not one feel attacked.

So this is the problem that i got. I tried the tool, step 1 worked fine,step 2 also but it was stuck on step 3 with relocking my boot loader and i was on CID HTC__032 so the working one. And my phone was on HBOOT 1.49.0018 Unloced via HTC Dev way. Then i changed my CID to HTC__001 and tried it again and nothing.

    take the minus mirror - should be faster.
    no, you also need to be prerooted, flash a custom ROM after unlocking.
    then you can run step1. No errors on step1? then run step2.
