My life b4 permanent root? - HTC EVO 3D

I just would like to put a positive interjection out there.
I have been a member here a long time on XDA, my experience with the EVO was awesome to say the least thanx to Calkuin Mikfroyo Virus Koush and many others. My experience here with the EVO3D has been ummm interesting. Waiting for root has been frustrating but as I said before I've been through a few of these rodeo's so we wait... it will not be much longer. I have custom themes, faster internet and changed my prl. Kinda reminds me of all of the crap we went through for our windows phones. I want SBC worse than ever for my phone...it'll come. Please be patient this phone has a complicated security. Teamwin will release root when its safe to use.
Htc is being held back by Sprint to not unlock your bootloader they don't want you to have free tethering, so they are in the middle of corporate politics.
Please thank your Dev's for what they have given to you. And have faith!
Please keep this thread positive.

Don't wait for team win to release s-off because fre3Dom development has stopped. Team AlphaRev achieved s-off and they should be releasing it soon. By the way, you don't need root to tether for free either.
My ''xDU4L C0R3 SH00T3Rx'' shot you down in 3D!

I'm missing s-off bad, but to be honest, this phone is great still. I know there has been a lot of whining and complaining, but at the end of the day it's a powerful phone. Full root is only going to make it that much better.

Thanks to devs, but I highly really doubt that Bootloader has anything to do with sprint or any other company. How come samsung phones never come with locked bootloaders? HTC and Moto did it because they wanted to, not because anyone made them do it.

Truth be told. If this phone never got s-off,i wouldn't lose much sleep over it. As a current flashaholic, that's how satisfied I am with it.

It made sense to me.
He's basically saying, as someone who's a flashaholic (likes to flash different roms), he's satisfied enough with the Evo 3D as it is on the stock rom. Don't know what was idiotic about it.

I live in a world of analogies. Custom ROMs are my equivalent of crack!! I'm happy to say that I've been drug free for at least 20 days....and I don't even have a desire to shoot up.

+1... I'm thoroughly amazed at my lack of desire to flash something new. I do look forward to it, but since the phone can handle it, I don't even think i'll go with cm7/8 for a long time. I do look forward to s-off for somethings though, like unlocked hotspot (although wifi tether is working great, it's nice to use the built-it), extra notification quick settings (like screen rotate!), space view weather lock screen, and maybe even some extra theming of things that skins can't touch (hopefully UOT...)

I set myself up to be in the long haul of waiting for s-off. Like many others, I came from the EVO 4G, I made my own roms and ports, but I knew that I was getting the 3d, so I stayed away from the sense 3.0 roms so when I got the 3d, the new sense wasn't 100% old news, allowing me some time of "freshness" before I got bored and wanted to flash.

There is zero proof of this... that it has been done "reliably" anyway. A video showing what could easily be two different phones doesn't do it for me. There has been no progress, no updates, no beta testers coming forward saying it actually works, nothing. I'll believe it when I see it in a downloadable file.

Same here. I didn't touch a 2.1/3.0 rom for that very reason. I wanted to keep my 3d as a new experience. Also cm7 kicked ass on my og evo.

Return your 3VO.. why?

Just lookin around, I see a lot of you will return your evo3d if the devs or HTC don't get s off before your 30 day return. Idk why you'd return in it in the first place, I guess for ROMs and recoveries and extra mods. But we got temp root already and the most up to date Rom with any s off device out there is what we have stock, with weaker processor. So if you guys are really picky just gettin a recovery or extra mods, then go. I'm happy with temp root and gettin my root apps. But these are just my thoughts

This is so true I see people saying they're missing they old evos cuz of root and stuff, but why u need it back? To have the Kingdom ROM on.it? U got the original one on the 3d so.is no.need to return it

If anyone is going to make use of his custom roms, they need a flashable device too.
Temp root doesn't work properly: plain and simple. Very few apps actually work under temp root. I have no plans to return my phone but temp root is a non-solution. It's only a stepping stone for devs.

What phone will you get? Unless you're going back to the EVO or switching carriers it seems that the E3D will be rooted before either the SGS2 or Photon are released, the only two phones on Sprint comparable to the E3D.
As far as dev support: once its rooted we will have CM7,8, etc and likely MIUI as long as someone wants to port it over (I'm sure there will be no shortage of people willing to do so). Custom Sense ROMs are a dime a dozen, most are just skinned and don't offer anything new other than having few apps removed/added and maybe a new kernel- there will always be people to put these out. As for the Sense ROMs that are heavily modded and optimized, (I won't name names but they are amongst the most popular in the EVO thread), some of those devs are waiting for root to buy the E3D while others already have them and are holding out for root. We'll have plenty of support either way.
Very true. But I'm confident in all these devs working there butts offs

I want CM. I line it better than anything else out there. I paid for my phone with my hard earned money....I should be able to run CM on it if I want. If HTC doesn't make a phone that will allow me to do that then I will find one that will.
This EVO 3d is way more buggy than any nightly cm7 ROM I ever ran on my EVO. I really regret jumping the gun and selling my EVO. Now I'm going to have to buy another one unlocked and ride out my old contract for another year and then switch to t mobile. Hopefully then i can vet some 4g inside a building.

I would be forced to wait for HTC's next device that comes unlocked. .
Custom ROMs being a dime a dozen is what makes the EVO so popular here on XDA. What I offered may have been useless to you but despite what you think was still very popular as is my Xoom ROM.
ROM development has different people who do different things. We have kernel writers, base ROM makers, and then we have themers. It took all of use to make the EVO what it is today. You don't see Myn writing his own custom kernel for example. We all worked together as a team its not one single person.
Root will come our way. People just need to learn how to be patient and let the devs take their time. There were people that didn't even believe temp root was possible, but look at it now. All I know is that Root will happen one way or another. We have very knowledgeable devs in our community.

Sorry, the second part of my post was not directed at you. I only said it because I have seen people mention that developers are not going to wait around for te E3D to be unlocked. All I meant was that even if some don't, there will always be people around and able to accomplish much of the same things we had on the EVO. Didn't mean to offend though I can see how I may come across that way.
I want s-off for many reasons. Some of you are too dense understand the significance of nand write access so I will only offer my two biggest reasons:
1) I OWN the device. I don't rent or lease the device and my employer did not supply me with any phone(s) nor do they pay my phone bill. It's MY device, I want admin access to MY device.
2) HTC Sense makes me want to friggin vomit. Sense 3.0 is a great improvement but it's still the bloated cow that Sense is and will always be.
edit- I've been running some flavor of CM since I had my Heroc and I must add, in all sincerity, GB on this EVO 3D has more bugs and has been a bigger pain in the butt than any RC or final version of CM. I've actually had a couple random reboots in the last week.. ON STOCK SOFTWARE!!! Not acceptable, imo. But that's Sense for ya.

I agree and sorta disagree with you. For one CM helps out the whole android community aka all of Samsungs competitors that's just what they do. However I see that HTC is Samsungs biggest competitor and they may or may not lose some CM magic. In the future I believe that CM will continue what they are doing but Samsung will have the most support.

The Evo 3d is my first android phone aswell. I used to use the iPhone 3gs thinking it was the best thing in history until I played with my sister's CM7 Evo 4g. I instantly fell in love with CM and android in general you could do so much more, whenever and however you want it. But if CM doesn't come to the evo 3d I won't be tempted to sell it for a GS2 just to get my CM7 fix. But I still have my hopes up for CM on the Evo 3d.
Theres still going to be CM for phones now and in the future.

Agreed, I don't see CM getting shut down and I'm sure we'll still see CM7 and CM8 for the E3D. Congrats to Steve, this is awesome for him.
TBH, I am more intrigued about Google's acquisition of Motorola, what does that mean for Sammy and HTC?
Got much more respect for Koush but I can't hate on him for joining with Sammy. Android's a fun hobby but it doesn't pay the bills.
But I do wish everyone whining about not having AOSP ROMs would do us all a favor and just get rid of their Evos. No one here cares and no one wants to hear you throw a temper tantrum.

We can, or will be able to. EMMC phones are quad booting roms! Nobody has made it work for us yet because there is no reason, yet. All the roms are pretty much the same. Some roms look this way, others that way, in the end they all have same mods to them over the same base. CM can be had faster IF cyanogen got more involved, look how fast they got CM booting on the TouchPad, maybe a bounty would speed things up around here

Hello there!

welcome aboard, mate..
It feels weird being on a stock rom without root and no recovery. I just hope it isn't like my Mytouch 4G when trying to get s=off and root it..
I don't know what the MT4G is like, but there are definitely some hoops to jump through here. I'm using the HTC dev method to unlock, but I'm still S-ON. I use 4ext recovery to flash ROMs, and so far all is well.

Oh I didn't know you can have a recovery and still be S=On.. on the Mytouch it was very difficult to get it off because since I got mine as soon as it came out, their wasn't much development on it but that is very cool to be able to do that
Welcome.
Read thoroughly on how to root and downgrade or if you want to stay S-ON, 4EXT Recovery is the way to go.
Fortunately, I don't have to worry about that. HBOOT 1.4, yea!
welcome
As soon as you root and stuff, I'd recommend flashing a sense 4.0 Rom. It's just so much better than sense 3.0/3.6 IMO
Oh and Welcome!

I recommend against that, especially if you came to 3D Land for the 3D, which no Sense 4.0 ROM has. They don't have 4G either, if you are in a 4G rich area.

Well I've had ICS since April (CM9, AOKP) so I definitely have had my fair taste of the sandwich and I still have yet to root this phone. The 3d is a gimmick and i'm pretty sure I will not use it as much, and Buffalo has no 4G never did so that doesn't matter either lol. Probably going to wait some more until a fully stable and functional sense 4.0, 4.0.4 Rom comes out with all the bugs fixed. At least this will help tame my flashing addiction for now and focus on the EVO's framework and working's and etc etc so I can start porting rom's to this device. That's what i'm hoping to do anyway's Still learning though
Not so new..
Hi guys, i have not really been active on the forums for the last 4 months or so, but I think its time to get into it some more.
I have a knack for finding apps, either paid or removed from market at other sources, so if you are having trouble with finding whatever app it may be let me know and maybe I can help you out.
I am also having a problem of my own that I would really like help with if anyone would. I can not get internet, data, 3g, or mms on my 3d thats been flashed to metro.
Im currently running hboot 1.5 unlocked, s-off, 2.17, rooted. And yes I have tried posting in the forum that the guide was in, but unfortunatly am unable due to less than 10 posts error. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Um, I can't help, but I do want to know what the less than ten posts error is.

Ten posts error
It says that your account must have more than 10 posts to be able to post in development section.

Ding ding ding! You are correct. Not that big of a problem though. Just find a few general topics you're interested it and post a few times. Done...

Is development winding down for our device?

Seems like a big time slow down on developing for this phone.
Is this simply due to the One?
I couldn't imagine dropping another 500 bucks on a phone so far away from my discount time.

Due simply to the One? No. MeanBean has been dead for a while. Viper appears to have been complete since February. CM10.1 is still in the works. Stock is still being worked on. I'm sure the Sense 5 Port and others aren't just being set aside to never be touched again. I could be wrong about that though.

Could be wrong but have to agree, sense 5 may take a little while longer to get rolling, but there other roms that just dropped. Im a big supporter of utkaar99's work here. If you like sense try his HatkaLTE or his Rage ROM. If you like AOSP ,take a look at jaimeg's threads. Still some stuff happening here just a little slow right now. As far as the One, its true we're loosing some folks to that forum, but thats how it works here at xda. I mysrlf was going to get a One or the samsung 4 but decided to hold, mainly just to see how long this forum will last. Hope its like the Heroc was, even in low activity it still pushed on. Same with the Evo4G, still hangin in there 3D is the same, still going strong. We may pick up some of theirs in the future hopefully. Just gotta hang tough.

It isn't like the days of the original evo. I always had a new Rom to play with and so I wait patiently 4 the next big rom release. I refuse to use a Rom that doesn't have full functionalities. I need my phone to just work so I am staying on mean bean until something worthy replaces it. I do love viper Rom as well.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
I know viper is working on something that will allow mods and roms for the one on other carriers to work on the Sprint variant and vice versa. One development is about to explode. That said we still have some quality roms here in lte land. If you have the time, you can learn to develop and theme.

Good post man.... I would hate to see all development stop for this phone but it won't, it will slow down though.. I think everyone was so used to getting different roms and constant updates to feed the addiction... What they have done is awesome and the part about the roms being complete is true, I can't think of much that can be done with viper, been using it for a while and it's bad ass.. Just debating the One, not sure if I want to jump ship yet, it's fast and smooth, but it's not much better than this in my opinion.

Don't forget to hit the thanks button. When this phone came out there were still a lot of developers working on EVO 3D ROM's.

My husband just got the One (his upgrade from the EVO4G). The only features it has that I wish my 4GLTE had are the dual front speakers (the sound is beautiful!), the IR blaster (maybe not super useful, but can be used for triggering our DSLR), and the international SIM card slot.
The aluminum skin is also beautiful, but it's not going to tempt me to upgrade. It also doesn't have an SD slot, so it wouldn't hold all my MP3s.
I hope development doesn't die on this device. I plan on keeping it for quite a while longer.

I'd like to keep it for the 2 years like the ogevo. But I don't know if it will make it.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
I keep wondering the same thing. Got another year to go before my upgrade, and definitely can't afford the one straight up. Was hoping when our sense5 update drops sometime this summer (hopefully) that the current favs like mean, viper, and superjelly would be brought up to date with it, but it doesn't seem that'll happen since those devs have moved on to the one or left HTC all together. Not saying new stuff won't drop then, but for now anything sense will be slow.

Actually, it DOES seem like that WILL happen. As I've said earlier that some of the progress on those ROM's have been completed. There's simply no more to do with them which is why there is no update. Just like the OTA from HTC even though they could be doing more.
I think in this new world of quickly progressing smartphones there are a couple of options for xda'ers. One, upgrade yearly to stay with the new device that gets all the attention.
The second option is the progression that this site fosters. Users learn and build their abilities to create by themselves. Many of the past leaders of EvoLTE have left a legacy of development here that can be built upon. Fortunately, the vast majority of the devs around here will gladly allow another person to take over the reigns and continue a build- or even make it thier own creation.
The site was named xdadevelopers. The purpose for the site is to allow users to learn to be developers. All the tools are here.

Something else to consider is that Android 5 (Key Lime) is on the horizon and may be announced at Google I/O in a couple of weeks. A major OS rev often stokes new inspiration for devs and hopefully we'll see ports of Key Lime ROMS to the EVO LTE (e.g. CM, Key Lime based Sense, etc.).
It ain't dead.
Just have to know where to look is all.. not all ROMs get posted on XDA
I'd much rather have more kernel development than rom personally. I'm learning more and more each day the true capability of the hardware and which software elements dampen it's potential. We have a huge hd screen and dual core I could really care less about the One and sense 5. Like someone else said it can't do much more than viper. I'm testing the AOSP waters for now and loving Slim Bean currently.

Just look in the development threads. There are still a lot of really great roms still being worked on.
Yes a few have left but many still have this phone and many more will probably pick it up second hand or now that it's becoming really cheap on sprint.
For ask those worried why don't you go and read a few how-tos and start doing your own thing.
I really hate these threads. They always happen and never produce something good. Just lame really.
