Hello, I've just received my new HTC EVO 3D after a long time with my loved HTC HD2...
Now I'm searching for tips 'n tricks to do on the EVO 3D something similar to what I successful did on the HD2. But before, I have some questions:
- I've seen a lot of ROMs also for the EVO 3D, but all them supports 3D on screen and camera?
- In your experience with custom roms for EVO 3D, what's the best rom without sense?
-What's the requirements to install a custom rom?
Many thanks in advance
Sorry for my bad english.
If the ROM is based on official stock firmware then yes, it will fully support 3D. Leedroid is IMO the best out there.

Uhm I realized that my phone has already installed "something" inside.. it's most likely an used phone:
*** UNLOCKED ***
SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.49.0018
eMMC-boot
Oct 3 2011, 15:03:01
This is what I see pressing power button+volume down at phone turned off.
What I should do?
There aren't yet some ICS preview-based ROMs with working 3D due to the HTC announce of an official ICS update for the EVO 3D?
That's not a new phone, somebody has HTCDev unlocked it. However this is actually quite good as you can now install a custom recovery and then either:
Install a custom ROM and kernel image manually or
S-Off the device after a hboot downgrade and install roms easier.
As you are a GSM EVO 3D user you have access to a couple very good ICS roms however none at the moment support the camera or Bluetooth (or playback of 3D media for that matter). As you concluded its because HTC are yet to release official ICS for devs to port the libraries and drivers from.

1. all sense 3.0 roms will support 3d gane/pic
2. the best rom w/a sebse is for me romeos3d
3. that you are s-off and a custom recovery. like 4ext (tha best)
check the sticky threads, i guess, you're italian so u have gsm version http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1230
Understood a thanks+ given for your patience.
I'll wait for official ICS due to the BT+3D support, sad to see that there's not a completely functional MIUI rom for the EVO 3D... I've used many fantastic MIUI based ROMs on the HD2...
I've read about the dangerous HBOOT live CD downgrade procedure that allow EVO 3D users to downgrade from HBOOT 1.50 to 1.40 and switching the flash security to S-OFF (a thing I've never heard on HD2)... what this means in terms of advantages for me? What changes between a phone with S-OFF and another with S-ON?
And I read that if I choose to unlock the flash security (S-OFF), I should before return to an HTCDev lock status... how can I perform this?

@e3d: I've yet the recovery so I can flash ROMs from zip files... why you wrote that I need to be in S-OFF mode to flash one?

I think there is a very good MIUI ROM available but it only supports camera if you have a 5+2 megapixel version instead of the older 5+5 megapixel version.
An HTCDev unlock has already been performed on your phone so that part isn't an issue, have to admit I've never hears of a live cd downgrade for GSM versions.

Isn't this one for both GSM+CDMA Evo 3D versions?
EDIT: I checked, the live CD is in a thread in the CDMA EVO 3D area so no chances to S-OFF my GSM one?

How I can check this?
What's the benefits having a phone with S-OFF instead one with S-ON?

To check what camera you have in your phone, try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1482664
Scroll down a bit to where it says "Camera checking".
If you have S-ON you have to either use an app made by a recognized developer Joeykrim to flash kernels, or you have to use fastboot command (while connected by a USB cable to a computer) in ADB. You cannot use the normal way of flashing kernels in recovery, as that will leave you with an endless bootlooping phone. (And, i dont think S-ON can flash a new splash screen? Someone confirm please)
If you are S-OFF, you can basicly do whatever you want, whatever way you want. No need for USB cables, apps and such. Just boot into recovery and flash what you want.
Very nice, I need the S-OFF lol
I should search a procedure for S-OFF my GSM EVO 3D.
The "Camera Checking" app isn't anymore on the play store, so I can't download it.
No problem, I'll test directly the ROM on my phone to check it after done the S-OFF.
Any suggestion to S-OFF an EVO 3D GSM?
@e3d & @Atomix87: seems that you have a GSM one with S-OFF, which procedure you used?

I'm almost certain the live cd is only for CDMA. To achieve S-Off with my EVO 3D I downgraded my hboot via this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1535987 make sure you completely and thoroughly read the entire thread through before attempting any of it.
I'm reading it, but i think some points are useless for me.. my phone has already the bootloader unlocked "HTC way" and root access on stock rom.
So, please confirm this, I need only to follow the third procedure (third post) on thread you linked me: "Downgrading your HBOOT".
Where I can find the CID code?
Flash maniac ( XDA member ) has an downgrade guide so that you will have an hboot version that you can s-off.
Hi everybody..!! I have months reading all yours developer threads, & i don't find the way to install a good ICS rom without sense that work correctly at my Amaze 4G. I use the all in one kit a couple months a go. The wire kit, Up-date the radio, Kernel, etc etc.
JuopunutBear
S-OFF
Hboot 1.93.2222
4EXT v1.0.0.5 RC3
I have CapRom03192012ob
androide 2.3.4
Kernel 2.6.35.13
radio 1.08.550L.19DC_30.66.550L.08D
Any good advice...??? Thanks
First things first... Go and grab the firmware package from android revolution roms thread. And put it on your phones internal storage. (Boot into hboot and let it apply) once its done, go and get craigtuts fourth bar nexus. Its just what your looking for
Any questions, just ask. We can answer them

Hello good people of XDA
As of June 29th my EVO 3D is bangin with ICS 4.0.3 and Sense 3.6
Now as much as i like it, i would like to see more ICS and less Sense, as 3.6 brings minor changes and i feel like its a futile update that took 6 month for HTC to bring! I was expecting it to talk to me and ask, how my day went! :S
I would like to Root the phone, but there is just so much info about ROOT, MOD's, KERNEL's, H-BOOT, S-OFF and all the necessary things to know a little about before ROOTING, that i just feel confused and lost, and cant seem to find the right info for me :S
So my Q's are:
What's the most up to date ROOTING guide for the EVO 3D?
What's the point of a KERNEL, why is it flashable? Do i even need one when ROOTING?
I would like to Backup my existing "Stock Rom" is Titanium Backup the way to go ?
Is there an Official ICS ROM for the EVO 3D without Sense ? That is not tweaked or edited ? Just vanilla ?
What about the CamMod & MusicMod's for the CDMA devices ? Are there any for the GSM ones as well ? Panorama and all the goodies implemented..
What should i use to flash MOD's or KERNEL's onto the phone ? PC or an APP ?
If i missed something, please be so kind and bring it to my attention!
THX
Ok to root I would use revolutionary to root and s-off if it not hboot 1.5 kernels are for permorfance increase and they are flashable in recovery also there are stock ics roms in the development section and vanilla told as welll to download and also to backup stock Rom I would root and backup in a custom.recovery pm me if u need more help
Hit the thanks button if I helped

My HBOOT is on 1.53.0007 "HBOOT-1.53.0007"
Revolutionary has 1.49.0008 as their latest HBOOT for the EVO 3D GSM
What am i to do ?
A friend of mine uses virgin mobile and just picked up the evo v 4g. i went and htcdev unlocked the phone, installed twrp and rooted no problem. what i need to know being all my phones are gsm and i dont wanna screw up his phone. ive read through a bunch of threads and do i need to the s-off wire trick? all he wants is to run a JB rom. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Im in the process of downloading the QADERSO v2 VM zip file now. ill post the bootloader info as soon as he calls me back but the phone is pure stock ICS out of the package last month. Also any rom suggestions that are compataple with vm? or will the sprint ones work as well?
Thanks again
In order to run jb roms I had to be s off and on hboot v1.5. S off is the tricky part.

I've used both of these roms and like them alot.
FYI neither of these support 3D. You have to stick to a Sense based rom like Harmonia for 3D to work.
Do they run on hboot 1.5? With s-on? Or am I going to have to s-off it later on today

These are both AOSP based ROMS so yes you will have to S-OFF for these.
I have run both of them with hboot 1.50

These type of "best" threads are not allowed on XDA. I suggest you download a couple and try them out to judge for yourself.
Everyone has its own thinking and liking and also every rom has it own feature , so i suggest try not only asop try all roms only and enjoy all the feature once and remain on that rom which you like most...
