You better not be holding your breath. You'll die waiting. Htcdev or go home. That's the only way to root the 3d with 1.5 hboot from now until the end of time, and then 4 years after.

Hi Guys,
I just got my EVO 3d Today. Am really excited needless to say.
Ive managed to unlock the boot loader using the official HTC Bootloader unlock tool(Since my software version was 1.20). Now it says unlocked but still has "S ON". Been going crazy for hours now trying to root it. Even tried going into recovery but just get an error symbol.
Would appericiate if anyone can tell me how to go about it or point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance.

easiest way to fix it is to download the stock root 2.3.3 in the devolpement thread and it will give u root after u flash it mape sure u data/wipe and dalvik wipe its in advanced if u need anymore help just pm me
edit: if it still says s-on the go to development thread got to rom guides and use the revolutionary tool to get s-off and root its really easy to do

Thanks for the input. The problem is that i can't go into recovery. Every time i try i get a Red Triangle with an !.
I have ONLY used the HTC Dev unlock method and nothing else. Do i need to do/install something more in order to go into recovery?
Just use the revolutionary tool to get s-off and root it would be your best bet now i was helping a friend do it the other day and he. Messed but i have a fix if after u do it u get s-off but not root if u need me to help u will going through doing I can but u will have to wait a few hour I am about to go to. Bed u can pm me or hit me up on g+ because my link is in my signature
I shot the maid! What can I say? 3vo shooter
Oh and i can't use revolution because my software number is 1.20.401.2 (When i click on check for updates it says device is up to date) and revolution is only compatible with 1.30.0000 and 1.40.0000
Are u on 2.3.4 or is ur 3vo a gsm phone?

Totally lost here.
Umm... you need to flash a recovery through fast boot...the red triangle means you don't have one... also if you are unlocked push su through adb and you should have root. I never used HTC official unlock but have rooted several phones... after you unlock the bootloader you push su and flash a recovery

from my understanding, once you use the htc unlock method you can't get s-off for now, until theres an exploit found. I followed a vid on htcevohacks.com and got mine rooted using 2.3.4 but I stil have s-on... not sure if it even matters because i can still go into recovery and flash roms.

Unfortunately its for software number 2.08.651.2 and above. Im on 1.20.401.2. Even when i click on check for updates it says device is up to date.
So basically this method can't work for me .
Guys issue resolved. Even though my device was initially unlocked using HTC Official unlock method i just ran revolution, followed the steps and now I'm unlocked AND rooted by revolution. Just wanted to share that.
Thanks for all the help people.

This site also has something called forum structure. Just FYI. When you tag a question [Q] and there's a section called Q&A, is it really freaking rocket science to know that your question probably goes there? Yeah, I'd say so.
you can install a rom using 1.5 hboot and the latest firmware/radios
after doing the HTCDEV unlock. i spent over 1 hour walking someone thru it on chat this evening.
there is a nice 'kanged' write up on how to in this forum.

Look, you can try to downgrade your radio's, pri's etc using the RUU below. It will revert you back 2.3.3 Radio 0.97.10. 0530. Then you can root your phone(you can use the revolutionary method). Let me know if this works. Download it and it will guide you through the process...

Your only option is to use the htcdev.com method. You cannot get s-off though.

HTC dev. It's fairly straightforward, then flash recovery and then rooted Rom . At least that's what I done

Unlocking your bootloader using HTCDev Unlock will allow you to flash a custom recovery. With a custom recovery, obtaining root is easy (plenty of flashable ZIPs for this). This has nothing to do with your version of HBOOT (or firmware or OTA version).
Read the guide I linked to above and it will answer these questions...

Hey guys,
I was looking around at the other sub-forums trying to figure out how to turn S-ON, Relock my bootloader, and unroot the phone... was hoping someone could help.
I used DirtyRacun to turn S-OFF.
I got a replacement device and need to send the phone back to Sprint and wanted to send them a stock device.

I saw that, but as I stated, I used DirtyRacun to turn S-OFF... I guess by your reply the methods are the same.
I didn't see it state anywhere in that thread the methods are the same.
I just tried the link you posted, using the RUU method, and of course it doesn't work...

I see what I did wrong, looks like more than likely I was using the wrong HBOOT version of the RUU.
Once I get the correct one I think what the previous member linked to will work.
Thanks for the help guys!
If you go to unlimited.io and check the different methods of gaining S-Off, you'll notice that they are all linking to the same page. So the same method with work for any method.

I thought I would start a thread to help people that sent there DNA out to get JTAG s-off and now are trying to flash a custom Rom.
If anybody want to put there experience on here so people know the steps and the correct way to handle the bootloader.
I think it would be helpful. I am still waiting for mine to come back from mobiletechvideos so it would be helpful for me to.
Thanks to anyone who contributes.
I'm pretty sure this should be in general. Just sayin.

The purpose of the forum is to get the right info I've seen conflicting points on whether or not you still need to unlock the bootloader after s-off.
My understanding was that once your s-off you don't need to unlock because it bypasses the bootloader security checks. I am probably wring but I was hoping to get a clarified answer with this forum what do think choochoo

You shouldn't have to all you really need to do is flash the ENG Hboot and flash a recovery and then flash a Rom most have root already and your good to go. If you wanna use the stock hboot and only want su permission then you do need to unlock hboot it to be able to flash a recovery and superuser or supersu.

The eng hboot has more functions available so there is a better chance of messing up the phone. Most people stick with the stock hboot since that's good enough for most.

Just got my phone back from the JTAG service and this was the exact procedure. Flashed the ENG boot and then flashed recovery. Bootloader still says 'LOCKED' but allowed me to flash.
I've JTAGG'd 18 DNA devices so far on the OTA update (I do this on the downlow due to specific "developer" who can't understand how to get all phones to take the RIFF JTAG flash software.
Flash ENG Hboot if you want the options available to it, though not mandatory. Install a root program (SuperSU is my recommendation), then flash a recovery.
Immediately backup your current setup, then go for any ROM you see fit. Profit.
