[Q] Root Question - HTC EVO 3D

I was going to follow the steps of using Revolutionary... but it asks for my hboot version either 1.3 or 1.4... but I have 1.5... should I just pick 1.4?? will that mess anything up?

Yeah it won't work with yours. You need to use the HTC unlock method on the htcdev site. And don't even try the revolutionary method as it will most likely fry your phone.

yo, I tried that and it wouldn't accept my code... I made sure there were no spaces and everything... the error was
"We're sorry, but it appears your attempt to unlock the bootloader on this device has failed. This could be caused by several factors including simple errors in the entry of the unlock token, problems with your device, or a lack of manufacturer support for the unlocking process. Please see the specific error code listed below, and try again if necessary.
Error Code: Invalid Bootloader Token Length.
Error Reason: The submitted Token appears to be the wrong length and won't work."

I think you need to be on the latest ota to use the HTC unlock or atleast the version they say on the site. I used the unrevoked method so I'm not exacltly sure how that one works.

if you had not figured it out already, I had the same error and I realized I copied the blank spaces just after the token codes. I re-copied and it worked fine after

They just fixed the phone and not replace it? If that is the case, you can still use it and unlock the bootloader.
they had just repaired it and it came back locked up. i tried having it in fast boot then fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin and it said it didnt work, ideas? or am i doin it wrong?

That depends on what was repaired, like if they replaced any internal hardware. Do you know what exactly they did to ur phone?

the chargin port thingy was ****y. wouldnt charge unless it was help at the perfect position. not sure what they replaced but what i heard from a telus employee i know was that they put a whole new chip in so idk what would be changed
From what I know, some phones have the charging port onto the motherboard. So if it doesn't work, they have to replace the whole motherboard.
bawls, so htcdev site says my new id token is invalid
From what ur sayin it seems they replaced something that is effecting you unlocking it. If it is saying invalid, i would write them, or try sending them a message on twitter, htcdev has a twitter and most of the time they respond. If u dont have a twitter write them and tell them ur situation and that its saying its invalid...
Now that i think about it, it may be saying its invalid because u already used it when you unlocked it the first time. This happened to me when i relocked my phone and was trying to unlock it again. I would type in the toiken, and it would say it was invalid, because i had already used it. But i still had and used the Original file, i believe its a .bin fine, that i unlocked it with the first time, to unlock it again

Well he said 2 posts before that he went to htc dev and it said invalid, so i think that his original thought of it now being impossible was a misinterperatation.. but it coming up as invalid is because he already used the toiken once before. I kno this from experience trying to re-unlock myself

so have you tried the entire unlock process again from the start? tokens can't be reused, but an unlock.bin file can, assuming they didn't change anything major on your phone...
either way, use hasoon's all in one tool to help you get unlocked, it pretty much automates the whole process, then report back
Try creating a new account from htc dev..
i try to pull my identifier token and i get this

No, it's supposed to - the instructions say to just copy the entire token, including INFO, so I'm assuming that they just filter the first 4 characters off of each line.
And if you're using a Telus Amaze4G, you're SOL. You can't generate new unlock codes as there's no option for Telus Amaze's... and the IMEI's do have some sort of way to identify which carrier they were bought from.
ok ok i got it! i thought they made it so telus amazes cant be unlocked but i did the htcdev method, i removed all the infos and it worked!

I promise you, if you follow the directions, it's fine. It's been done around 30 times with no issues in testing.
And everybody should know by now, these sorts of hack are always a risk.

If you have problems or errors or it doesnt feel right, you need to come ask for help before continuing.
What was this posted again? I posted this in the proper subforum, where activity is being monitored and support is being given.
These bricks are likely recoverable, join #unbrick on freenode and get my attention. You will need linux

Anyway to root w/o htcdev?

Been trying to unlock bootloader for two days now. Keep getting the error Invalid Bootloader Token Length or Check Rule Fail with exception when it actually doesn't time out. I am pasting as I should w/o any spaces anywhere. Is there some other method I can use to get my TWRP backup restored to my phone? Running HBOOT 1.19.0000 S-ON.
Thanks for your time.

Pretty sure HTC dev is essential for rooting our phone. A lot of people seem to be having trouble with token length. Unfortunately I don't have any advice, I personally never had a problem with token length
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
If it's a problem with token length check that it's copied from arrow to arrow. HTC Dev does not like spaces at all. Pasting the token does not show if there are spaces either.

i quadruple checked the token. I even pasted it in notepad to ensure I wasn't copying some weird formatting.
This is what I'm pasting, maybe I'm still missing something. The formatting looks funny below but it's perfectly square in notepad.

Odd, it seems like the right formatting. It may be an issue with HTC Dev. Has the phone been unlocked before? You can use the same unlock.bin as last time

Try today HTCDev for a different device.

Looks like something's wrong on HTCDev.

Just tried again and was able to get the bin file in case anyone else was waiting.

HTC DEV Stuck...Invalid bootloader token lenght

I was working on getting s-off and despite using a 64 bit windows, everything went well. I have read many topics and the solutions on the issues of the token identifier not work when trying to get the unloc bin, and here I am stuck. It always says the code is not long enough, I check to make sure I copy exactly as they say, no paste, I have sync manager and the drivers are the proper ones. I even tried disabling my virus protection for a few hours, and yet I remain stuck and unable to get the unlock code bin sent to my email.
You should try to copy & paste it to see if it solves the issue.

i have relocked my bootloader to s-off my evo 3d .. as this thread says (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1535987) and at the end it says "YOU MIGHT HAVE TO RE-DO THE ENTIRE PROCESS OF HTCDEV WAY OF UNLOCKING AGAIN AT THIS POINT. WORKS 100% OF THE TIME" but every time i try to re-unlock it in the command screen i got : " FAILED (remote : unlock token check failed) " and its still re-locked , what should i do ?
Are you using your original token or a new one. Also make sure you copy the correct parts of the token.

i used the original one ( i didn't submit another unlock token to htcdev ) ... can't use a new one because htcdev.com didn't send me a verification code to my account , so i borrowed an account and unlocked it .
