Hello i ran through the steps for rooting perm. with s-off and went fine until the end where u r asked Y/n, i hit Y but the install failed.
I have S-off but no root access and no clockworkmod. When i go through recovery it crashes and shows red triangle with ! in it and only pulling out battery allows me to restart. Phone boots fine - no superuser of course
If i try to run revolutionary.exe again it says my device is not supported.
I'm not really sure what to due or whats going on, please help.
Did you even read any of the guides? Cwm sucks dont use it, use twrp. Flash through hboot. Really easy. Super user doesn't get installed with revolutionary, you have to flash it yourself then you get root.

Sorry for being so new at this, but I'm on stock firmware and have never rooted before. With this tool can I root my phone and then install Gingeritis v1.2.1?
Anyone with a Thunderbolt tried to use revolutionary yet?
Thanks in advance!
I flashed it and it gave me s-off but
Rom Manager acts like my phone is not rooted.

When I used Revolutionary, it hung/froze after it did the root.
I was S-OFF but had to manually install su, busybox, and CWM.
You're most likely in the same boat.

Does Revolutionary give me root?
No. You will need to flash this zipfile from recovery.

Easiest root I have ever done on any phone. Glad I waited for this to come out , so easy.
Sent from my Verizon 4GLTE HTC Thunderbolt
Can't wait to try this. Been stock forever and this might be the time I would want to root. So I basically Use Revolution to get S-off, and then download that zip and run it and everything is cool?
That's all you have to do, don't forget to download Busybox.

Hello All. Long time reader and first time poster.
I just ran this and I have s-off but when I attempt to run Recovery so I can install superuser su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip, my phone just reboots and I get the red exclamation point. Any advice?
Download Superuser from the market.
The easy way is not always the best way. You guys need to learn ADB so when your phone messes up, you can run commands and fix it.

IMO DBZ Fanatics is still the easiest root method for the thunderbolt. I have learned alot since rooting but would still recommend it to anyone who is a NoOb at rooting.

I did learn how and install ADB before i rooted my phone. It is a good idea.

Well I'll be the first to say, "I told you so!" when their volume buttons break and they need to un-root to make a warranty replacement.
ADB is your friend and "ADB for Dummies" on YouTube is your lifesaver:

When you ran the tool did you forget to check the box that said install recovery ?? If so you need to start over again.

+1. I've had to do the manual way so many times... I feel like there will be many more questions doing a one step method, rather than the ADB method, as one step doesn't really give you a detailed description on whats wrong.
Most of the mistakes are from not reading the instructions.
This is just out and the instructions for Thunderbolt have not
been posted yet. There are some general instructions that are
being used today. With one mistake I made it still only took five
minutes and I don't have any problems to fix.
FWIW... Use these instructions posted by XDA Member rivera82falcon in the INC2 forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1219246
EXCEPT FOR STEP 9c, where you will need to flash the Thunderbolt CWM file, located here:

You are probably used to the one-click everything. Installs recovery, s-off, unlock bootloader and root.
What you did, sounds like JUST root. Next step for you would be to unlock the bootloader via HTCDEv. Once you do that you can install a custom recovery.
That's the current state of options right now.

Is anyone having problems with rom manager in recover. I've rooted my HTC EVO LTE and unlocked the boot loader with HTC DEV. Then flashed recovery from rom manager. Then when I start recovery, rom manger recovery loads, but when ever I choose an option it goes no where and just sits with the hat. None of the options like reboot system, install zip from Sd-card, or advanced work. All of them take me to a black screen with hat and don't take me anywhere. What am I doing wrong. Any suggestions?
Attached is the error file that I get when I attempt to use recovery.
Do I need to partition my Sd-card in order to get it to work. It's been a long time since I did this, I can't remember if I need to do this in order to get it to work?
hey i've never rooted a phone before and i'm having a hard time finding out how to do this,,
i have the shooter_u, s-on, hboot 1.53.0007, eMMC-boot, RADIO-11.25.3504.06_M.
is there a way to root it, if not when will it be possible and is there anything else i can do with it like flash custom ROM etc? :fingers-crossed:
htcdev
go to htcdev(dot)com/bootloader/ and click on the right "Begin Unlock Bootloader"
u will need to register.. imput some random information all will be ok
and just follow the steps its easy..

Now you only unlocked the bootloader, which is not rooting.
OP.
After you did the above, you have to flash a custom recovery and flash superuser 3.x.x for ICS.
Look around, plenty of topics that answer your question.

The only issue with s-on is that the ICS ROMs tend to bootloop for most people. I recommend you get s-off. See the stickies in the Evo3d GSM development thread for more help with that.

Hey, i've got a major problem with the mwakious3Drom® rom, i followed the wrong steps and installed the newest version straight away through recovery, and now when i turn on the evo 3d it stays on the white screen with green letters 'HTC' forever, it never goes off.
i've tried factory reset but it's of no use; also tried restoring it through a nandroid backup i think, through recovery from jus tafter i rooted but it takes long on the 'restoring boot image' part and once that part's done the other things take place except for 'ext-sdcard' or something, ]it still dosen't work and stays on htc logo when turned on.
I thought i may be able to install a different ROM so i downloaded evolver3D2.3, however when conencted through usb cable from evo 3d to the pc, the 'removable disk (j' shows up but when clicked on it replies ' please insert a disk into removable disk(j', it dosen't let me go onto my sdcard so i cant copy the files.
When i go onto fastboot and have the usb connected the 'fastboot usb' does show up on the 3d so there's still hope i can do something from there but i really don't know where to start and i'm afraid if i've bricked it; have i or is it fixable?
Please, please help me, i would be so grateful
edit : btw, i have the anryl kernel 30.09 if this could be helpful.
First dont worry everything is fixable at xda second i will try to help u as much as i can if ur memory card isnt readable anymore , put mwakious 3D rom 11 the base one on another sd card and boot into recovery and do a full wipe and flash it and to flash thr patches make a full boot then reboot to recovery wipe cache and dalvik cache and flash the update i rly dont know what happened to that sd card and if that didnt work search for OTA ics ruu and flash it in bootloader and then s-off that hboot 1.53.007 trust me its easy and its way easier to flash roms and to avoid bootloops
Hit the thanks button if i helped

If you can remove the sd card and plug it in to your computer directly, you can check to make sure it is working properly (and copy the ROM over at the same time). If you can boot into recovery from fastboot, then you can flash the ROM. If not, you'll have to push a new recovery through your computer.

hey guys, i fixed the problem by popping the sdcard in a blackberry and connecting it, afer a while it started to work so i installed the evolver32 rom. anyways it was workng perfectly BUT wifi dosen't work. so i thought wifi may not work only on that rom, however i installed the mwakious3Drom® rom and when i click wifi it says error and theres no wifi connection.. could this be due to me not getting s-off or do they just do that on 1.53.007 ?
I think no wifi is a symptom of a bad kernel flash due to being s-on. So I think being s-off and flashing again might help.

With S-ON, you can still do most things, you are just restricted with what you can flash in recovery (radios, kernels, etc). Unfortunately, most roms do not have working sprint hotspot, but wifi tether works just as well. I suggest finding a rom you like and flashing it, as long as you already have a custom recovery installed. Just let me know if you need further clarification on anything and i will elaborate.
Since you're soft rooted go ahead and download goo manager from the android market. From there you can download TWRP Recovery and have goo manager install for you. Simple... If you want S-OFF go here to use LazyPanda S-OFF method (prerequisites are required). Alternatively you can go here for all your EVO 4G LTE resource needs
Cheers

HTC dev unlocked is not a soft root.
Its not S-OFF, but its NOT a soft root.
htckron - You cannot get S-OFF with the 1.15 bootloader. I'm not sure why that was suggested to you.

Shoot me a PM if you need some help, no question is a dumb question so take your time and hit me up with anything you're not real sure about.
I'm guessing if you had problems it's either because of drivers, or you had like the gingerbread firmware and hboot and an ICS rom and patch, because that causes jp bear to look at your phone and say "WTF"
