I think you need to follow the Capt guide.
What hboot version do you have?

will everything be deleted or no

will everything be deleted or no

not exactly sure....I'm thinking yes, so to be safe, backup what you need to.
And just follow the guide for your bootloader version.

Yes you will have to use captains throwback method. Since you unlocked the bootloader taco root method will not work. also you will not loose data as you will only need to downgrade your misc partition. there is no need to unlock the bootloader again with HTC, since i'm assuming that you already have done.

I'm diving back into the locked oem/ruu situation and the ruu link I was gonna use turned out to be incorrect. Anyone got a link to an ruu for HTC Evo V 4G? It'd be greatly appreciated, thank you.
