NO, unless you have S-off. If you read the information posted by the developer on the market page, about halfway down it says:
PLEASE READ ENTIRE DESCRIPTION BEFORE PURCHASING (Important info below!!!)

Boot Manager
When you're thinking of installing apps that require root access, it's a good idea to read all the information to find out if it supports your phone.
boot manager DOES too work with HBOOT 1.5
i personally use the htc evo 3d cdma version and have hboot 1.5... i have successfully installed it and have flashed several different roms ... the s-off is NOT required...but an ulocked bootloader is if you feel i did something to make it work or any questions you can find me here or at the init2winitapps.com forums as willie62226...thank you and sorry they mislead you with the information

Before questioning , you should have searched once...... It works on hboot 1.5 and any S-ON device IMO. I use it on my HTC unlocked 3D without any issues
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500538
@twolazyg
It works ,LOL. S-OFF is not necessary. The Dev of the app told me, he mentioned S-OFF on market to insure zero issues. The only problem with the app on S-ON device is , if we cant get a SLOT ROM to boot up then we need to fastboot recovery and flash update.zip located in sdcard/bootmanager/phoneROM...... this process can be skipped for S-OFF device.

That is not referring to the MR1 build. It says 1.0xxxx. MR1 is 1.13.605.7. That is the pre-release build that was used for downgrading in the original root process. The problem was that build had an old hboot that wouldn't interrupt the flash before the security warning happens. Which was a serious issue when we only had 2 RUUs newer than that to recover with. Anything from the release firmware (1.12.605.6) and up should be perfectly fine.

I know you can get back to s-on from Revolutionary. I was just saying as long as he didn't use Revolutionary the simple method in the thread I linked would work just fine.
Edit: I just realized you linked to the same instructions I did and you can NOT get back to s-on with that method if you used revolutionary. Revolutionary installs a hard patched hboot that prevents it from being overwritten by any hboot without issueing a specific fastboot oem command.

sorry to hijack this thread. but i have the same problem...i rooted my phone via ADB...what radio/ROM should i install? MR1? any links would be much appreciated.
Hello I will be receiving my EVO 3D soon and I'm pretty sure it has an eng hboot and I was wondering if I should leave it as such or should/could I flash it to hboot 1.4? I pretty much want the same rooting abilities I currently have on my EVO 4G I'm not looking to delve into something I know nothing about...Thank you

Understand:
(all are assumed that bootloader are unlocked)
1.4 hboot S-OFF = you can root like we've traditionally have for years and flash any rom
1.5 hboot S-OFF = you can downgrade the hboot to 1.4 and root and flash roms as will or you can keep it and still root and flash roms as will.
1.5 hboot S-ON = you can still root and flash roms as will BUT you just need to flash the kernel (boot.img) first before you switch roms via Flash GUI or fastboot and that's it!
I really don't understand why one extra step bothers people so much? if your hear, you like the hard way, IF you wouldn't then you would stay stock, unrooted and keep living the normal life.....
I'm not worried about doing a little extra leg work trust its just that I was under the impression that you cannot get true s-off on hboot 1.5. But that wasn't my question I wanted to know if it was possible to upgrade the eng hboot to hboot 1.4 and how or point me to a thread that has that explained. Sorry if wasn't clear from the beginning

There is no soff currently for hboot 1.5. But its real easy if you don't want to use a computer. Just use joeykrim app called flash image gui from the market. There is even a free version on xda. Use that to flash a kernel. Then boot into your recovery and flash the rom. Definitely easy. The only thing hboot locks to my understanding would be radio. Well kernel too but thats an easy workaround with the app.

You could either downgrade your hboot

or check out this thread for root
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239821
Down grade hboot to 1.4 then run CWM.
EVO 3d
MeanRom
Anthrax....
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.
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.

s-off dna
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.
So I am having... issues, installing ROM's.
Things I've already done with the phone:
I have installed CWM Recovery (version 6.0.0.0, touch)
Unlocked using HTCdev
have S-ON
have HBOOT 1.53.0007
Initiated a boot-loop
The EVO is currently boot-looping as a result of trying to flash a ROM. I can, however, still get into ClockworkMod Recovery and into the area where it shows the HBOOT version, phone type, etc.. I want to install an unofficial build of CM10.3, but the phone boot-loops after I flash the ROM through CWM. I have tried extracting the boot.img file from the ROM zip, flashing it through fastboot, and then flashing the ROM itself afterwards. I have also tried every possible combination of wiping Devlik Cache, /cache, /system, and /data partitions. Any tips? If it is the S-ON (I'm pretty sure it is) then can someone provide a way to obtain S-OFF without the "Wire Trick"?I don't have Ubuntu! The same goes for the HBOOT Version. I know that could also be the problem, as it is too high. If you do have a fix, then could you go into serious detail when describing it? Thank you!
P.S. Moderators, if this is the wrong place for this thread, please don't hesitate to move it.
Only sense ROMs can run on your h-boot. 4ext recovery is recomended. There is no way to s-off your phone other than wire trick. If you used search button you would find around billion threads that answer your questions
