Question EVO STUCK ON 4 TRIANGLES

i tryed flashing the radio on this EVO to and older version and i wouldnt let me the normal way so i tryed downgrading the whole entire ROM from 2.15.00.11.19 to 1.39.00.05.31 and while was downgrading or installing the older ROM it got into 60 or 64% and it gave me an error. so i hit exit now the phone its stock on a black screen with 4 white triangles 1 on each corner of the screen. if i unplug the cable it goes into the white bootlader screen it says RUU. i tryed all shipped ROMs and none of them seems to survive this phone. anyone has any ideas what the hell happened?

Re: EVO STUCK ON 4 TRIANGLES

Sorry to hear about this issue. I am by no means an expert, but it looks like your a still rooted with s-off. So you should be able to get back to another rooted rom to at least boot up again. One idea that comes to mind is to load up Sprint Lovers last release(rooted 3.70 based stock rom) which comes with two versions. The "All in one update" and the "rom only" update. Here is the thread: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/cdma-htc-e...i-all-one.html
You will just need to get the file on your sd card.

What's nice about this rom is it can be read from bootloader since it's a PC36IMG.zip file. So you can enter bootloader (Power button and hold volume down until bootloader comes up) and it will hopefully recognize the zip and ask you to flash it. The all in one update will take your radio down to the previous version as well which I believe you wanted to do in the first place. Or you may just want to try the rom only version to just get back to a bootable rom. One again, I am no expert and will just preface that I am not sure this will work or if it will do anymore harm so it's up to you and your responsibility if you try this.

Lastly, there is a rom thread at xda that is called Sprint lovers evolution which is the same format at Sprint lovers but for the latest rooted gb OTA. You can try that as well. Good luck.

Re: EVO STUCK ON 4 TRIANGLES

From the picture, it looks like you are missing the options for recovery. Try flashing the recovery you were using before. Then, if you had a backup, try restoring it.
