[Q] Rooting questions - HTC EVO 3D

Sorry if this comes across a bit silly
I would love too Root my Evo 3d like many with me.
Now I see that it is possible for the GSM version of the Evo 3D I have some questions.
Now I always want to know what I do and what everything means.
So far nothing new for most of us.
Now I am even a complete noob to the forums of the Evo 3D because I has just come off the HD2 NAND forums.(Broken screen R.I.P. HD2)
Now in the HD2forums there were clear sticky's to read about what's what and I miss it a bit at the Evo 3d forums (both at the SDMA and the GSM version)
already did a lot of searching but I still can not find what is what on Rooting a Evo 3D
Did I oversee the whole thing???
Maybe someone is willing too help me a little.
So I have SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT -1.49.0007
eMMC-boot
I know that I want to have S-OFF on my GSM Evo 3D but can it also be undone??
I have seen some clear tutorials on youtube but they were on the SDMA version (sprint)
A what I read here is that now I can just follow that tutorial and it would work properly? the link for the tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQnBQHuGJ7M
Sorry for my bad English Thank you in advance

1. Wrong thread section!
U have to use the revolutionary Tool to s-off and to root! And u have to s-off to get root! There is a thread in the gsm section!
Download the files from revolutionary Website, install the htc drivers, run the revolutionary.exe do the steps and install cwm! Then u can flash the superuser.zip file via cwm! The htc drivers and the superuser.zip u can get from the cdma thread called s-off and root without fastboot! ...thats it!
I hope i helped a little bit!
Good luck and Best regards!

It is much easier to help him with his problems than claiming that he isn't reading. But next time you could post in the right section (Q&A).
You enable usb debugging mode in applications development.
Then you start revolutionary tool. For that take a look at revolutionary.io
With this tool you get soff and cwm as a recovery installed.
On this page you get an explanation about this tool, how it works.
Root is also available on this page
I hope I could have helped you

sorry for my english but I'm french,
I just think he have search, but there is no clear explication, you must search on 2 or 3 thread to have somme info and try to understand, thats not very easy.
But thanks to mana88 for your help, with that I think he have all what he need.
To be honest, I have the same problem (but I have search) and now I know what to do. we just need to go to revolutionary.io, the other tread are not necessary.
Welcome to the 3D World... eh 3D World on a Phone
http://revolutionary.io/
just go there it's freaking easy.

Im a noob too, but i got s-off and my phone rooted by reading the gsm and dcma thread!
You are in this forum since Oct 2009 and i think thats enough time to accept the forumrules and post in the right section ...
Dont know what D*** H*** means, but i dont think its very nice!
Like a little child who cant read and call somebody D*** H***
Noobs, always read the stickies first. Most of the time u can find the answer. The stickies have a step by step guide there. They are a great start when ur looking for questions.
Don't feel too bad. Everyone on this forum is guilty of posting without fully looking first at one point or another. I have done it multiple times myself.

s-off hboot 1.5. has it been done yet?

like the title says... is it done yet? been looking and looking for solutions to that question. i'm already rooted using the htc method. but still looking for a way to get s-off.
check the 3D general section, there are a few threads on it with varying info.
short answer though - no
There has been some effort made towards this front, with little success. Whether you think it's a smoke screen, or not, evil devnull, and his team, attempted this around thanksgiving, and couldn't come up with anything. Not sure if revolutionary is quietly working on something, or if they are waiting for the ICS update, or if they are just done with bootloader unlocking, period (I'm not bashing those guys, but they have been eerily quiet since the bootloader changed to 1.5).
The unlocked, non carrier branded GSM guys have found a way to revert back to an eariler bootloader, using the HTC unlock method, and then performing a similar method to what the thunderbolt/evo shift 4g guys did to allow the Hboot to accept a RUU with an earlier hboot.
I think this doesn't get much attention, because the HTC unlock method allows you can do almost everything you could if you had S-OFF. The only thing missing is being able to flash radios.
At this point it wouldn't make sense for devs to come up with a solution now. Not with ICS around the corner
is there a temp root for hboot 1.5?

whats ics?
The only reason why i ask is because, ##data# or what ever it is, i found my midi number using an app in market place, but when i tried to adjust my volume. it doesnt want to work. i was wondering if me having s-on and rooted is affecting it in any way.
Ics is ice cream sandwich new android OS hopefully coming to the EVO 3d early 2012.

[Q] EVO 3D rooting

Hello.
I bought EVO 3D few days ago.
I want to root it but my HBOOT is 1.49.0018. All videos in youtube.com is with HBOOT 1.40.00000 or 1.50.00000. How could I root it?
And another problem is that a lot of services are always running. My free momory is from 150mb ram - 250mb ram. I think free momory should be from 300-500mb ram.
And battery life is just nothing. I did charge it all night. I went to school at 7:00 but at 13:40 or 14:00 the battery was empty. Is it normal?
I really really want to find answers to my questions.
Hope someone from this forum can help me.

Check revolutionary.io, I think your hboot is too new to use revolutionary, not positive though. Another option is running the 2.17 ruu, that'll get you 1.5 hboot, which can be unlocked with htcdev. Another option is downgrading your hboot, thanks to unknownforce for bricking his device to show us this method. You can find the downgrade thread in the development stickys

It just stops. Nothing happens.
What could be the problem? How could i resolve it?

They get installed alongside HTC sync, so grab the latest version of that from the official HTC site, install it, then uninstall HTC sync while leaving the drivers in place. Job done .

Do you know how to get S - OFF and install better ROM or smth after htcdev.com?
Well sence your hboot is 1.49.0018 then head on over to HTC dev website and sign up you will have to do first this where you will unlock your bootloader after that you will be able to install a custom recovery and then install you can install the Su files and this is what give's you root access

Right now i am trying to flash cwm through fastboot.
I type in cd Desktop\Android
In there I have this cwm-5.8.0.2-shooter.img. The name is longer but in cmd i type this.
I type in cmd
fastboot flash recovery cmw-5.8.0.2-shooter.img
and it says to me
error: cannot load 'cmw-5.8.0.2-shooter.img'
What is the problem?
Can anyone help me to resolve it?
There is no info about this error in forum.
After I will flash cwm i will install su files.
Ok I see that you flashing the wrong recovery you should be flashing revolutionary's custom recovery cwm doesn't work for the Evo 3D yet go back to the development section and find revolutionary custom recovery oh buy the way take your time don't rush it you want to do this the right way and that means less problems

You could either downgrade your hboot

or check out this thread for root

Down grade hboot to 1.4 then run CWM.

Perfection, at least for me!
1. You need a Original Rom to downgrade to Hboot 1.49.0007
2. then you can use h**p://revolutionary.io/ to unlock and S-OFF you HTC Evo 3D
3. Install with recovery a custom ROM you like
thats the way it worked for me.
The only thing you need is to find a original ROM which has the Hboot 1.49.0007.
Perhaps with these hints you find some tuts . I also don't remeber in every detail how it works, sry man
Hmm, you can use the HTC Supertool, but i dont konow if its work with hboot 1.5
I have Hboot 1.49.0018 and used it to root my phone, then i used the app "rom manager" to flash the recovery. And if you used the HTC method (as i did) your bootloader is unlocked, even if there stands S-ON.

[Q] 3VO ROOT for GSM's

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
