I am sure that this has been answered a million times before but I am completely lost.
Is there anyway to root a HTC Evo 3D GSM with HBOOT 1.49.0018? Preferably without losing my data
Thanks,

Hi,
the Documentation says that the hboots supported are 1.49.0007 and 1.49.0008, but not the hboot 1.49.0018 ... :-(
Greetings.
Maybe this then? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1495657
Never mind guys, I managed to use MyBackup with the HTCdev.com method.
Thanks for the help, however, I have another question:
Can I use the official CWM on this device (GSM)? I currently use the Revolutionary CWM as I heard that CWM has issues with the device - but I need the official one to use ROM Manager...
What kind of model you choose for an European Evo3d.

Dear fellow XDA members,
I am in need of some assistance. I just got my HTC EVO VIEW 4G and unfortunately, I accidentally upgraded to Android 3.2 HoneyComb without doing the Revolutionary S-OFF, so currently I did an HTC Dev unlock on my View but it still says "EXPRESS PVT SHIP S-ON RL" and it also updated the "HBOOT-1.14.0005." I tried checking out Revolutionary website and it does not support HBOOT-1.14.0005, so I was wondering what can I do? Do I need S-OFF for anything? I currently have Clockwork Mod installed on my View but it still has S-ON so I was scared about flashing ROMS. I am trying to flash Desensed 1.5 but is scared that I need S-OFF to do so... Can anyone chime in to help me please...
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
PS: BTW, I been searching and reading and rereading.... I just don't understand..
1) You'll need to downgrade to GB
2) you'll then need to run revolutionary for S-OFF
3) you can then re-upgrade to HC S-OFF

I don't think there is anything in the tool, that globatron hasn't already written a guide for on the Flyer. And none of them are hard to do. Anything particular you are trying to do?
ive done the OTA update, and then unlocked using HTC-DEV method becasue my HBOOT is 11.11.0011 and revolutionary didnt liost that hboot as being compatible. Ive been able to install a revolutionary Clockwork mod nad then went ahead and flashed LeeDriods ROM. But now it just starts up with the R2D2 sounds, boots a little and restarts.
Ive been reading and I think it either needs to flashed from fastboot or need to downgrade to GB and relevant hboot.
Also even though I have unlocked the bootlaoder from htc-dev it still says "s-on"?
I'm in the same boat. My flyer is
Hboot 1.11.001
OTA to HC
Unlocked the bootloader using HTC method
Load CW recovery.
Can I just follow the directions to down grade?
sorry to ask people for help again.. but there are alot of guides for unlocking/downgrading/flashing etc. could someone just point me in the right direction of one guide that is applicable to my particular case?
thank you.

I don't know why people keep coming on here and asking why they still have S-On after HTC Unlock. Its never been stated that HTC Unlock gets you S-Off, it just gives you an unlocked bootloader, which is not the same thing.
If you want real S-Off, downgrade and root using globatron's guide:
htthttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1307759p://
Then you can upgrade back to HC if you want using the following guide (also by globatron, becuase he's the man). You will also need to have the HC Hboot if you want to flash a HC custom ROM, which is also described in the following guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1358758
If you want to flash a custom ROM without getting S-Off, from my understanding you can do so using fastboot. But I haven't seen any step-by-step guide. You might start reading here:

It might be just me but I don't see anything in these guides with anything to downgrade the hboot on 16gb Flyer to gain compatibility with Rev. root method. It is not for me personally but seems others here are having that issue. With those newer hboot versions is there even anything that can be done at this time?
My understanding is that when unlocked with HTC dev you can flash recovery then adb push gb hboot while in recovery then run appropriate gb ruu. Once on gb rev s off then update to hc s off

Or are there still GB Hboot versions not supported by Revolutionary?
Ok so i have searched the forums and there seems to be loads of different answers and ways. Here is what i want for my GSM 3D
1. If possible i would like to keep the stock ROM
2. S-OFF if i even need S-OFF, all i want to do is use Fasterfix and Adfree
So whats the most up to date guide on doing this? there seems to be loads that are all different
Im not TOO MUCH of a n00b, S-OFF'd rooted etc my Desire.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
As stated in multiple threads and stickies, it all depends on what hboot your phone is.
And yes, what you want to do is simple. If you don't want to flash rom's or anything, you just need root access and Superuser.
Right ill find that out!
And you sure for adfree? i had to have S-OFF for that on my desire so will i not for this too?
Thanks for the help
HBOOT 1.49.0018
Will try have a go now!
This is correct yes?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248231
What about for S-OFF?
For S-Off, I would recommend reading up on the HTC Unlock method. It is pretty simple and you become an Online Dev for HTC in the process Wish you luck!
Their is so many I don't know where to go I'm on hboot 1.5 I've did the HTC dev method before on another phone in the past, so Im sort of lost right now. Any help or Links id be grateful. Thx

You could either downgrade your hboot
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1547695
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.
Hi,
I'm asking here as I can't post in developement itself (2 Posts only)
Is it possible to install this rom with S-On? I had to switch to KingCobra, because DT was bootlooping. But KingCobra seems to be dead.
Sorry if this was already answered before.

You cannot flash DT with S-On because you will need to downgrade your hboot to a compatible one (I don't know if you're CDMA or GSM). That's why it is bootlooping.
GSM. Thanks. Is revolutionary still in active developement for Hboot 1.53xx? Most downgrades seem to be a pain in the ass
I do not know if you know about this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1743466 Follow method A,B and D to get S-off. But its a great alternative if you don't want to wait on revolutionary to make a s-off tool.

Some s-on users it worked...see link
It is a bit ambiguous though. if you see the last page praveenkv1988 says he actually did the wire trick before trying this. No one actually says he did this with s-on they just started from there
If you try it you'll have to do it on your own risk. its untested so you should tread lightly
I've been googling from last two weeks but didn't find the solution.. I went through tons of xda posts but none of them helped.
Please tell me how s-off flyer with hboot 1.11.0011? I've unlocked through htcdev site( after giving up). Now how to s-off and then root and recovery.
HTC flyer p510e
Honeycomb stock Rom
unlocked via htcdev
(In a hope how to s-off)
Hi. Why do you want to s-off your device? If you unlocked it through htcdev.com you don't need to s-off and can install custom recovery and root it using quickroot 1.1.3. Mine for example rooted+custom ROM without s-off.
I've been said that we MUST S-OFF or else we would face bootloop or brick situation !!! Is that true? Please provide me the link where I can continue further with rooting,recovery and custom Rom installation. curretly I've only unlocked via htcdev.

Bootloop and brick doesn't depend on s-off. It depends on head and hands (and may be luck a bit). Here is the link for rooting your device (quickroot 1.1.3). It perfectly roots almost ANY HTC device. There is an explanation, so read carefuly!!! After installation you'll free to use any app that requires root. And try to install custom recoveries from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775840 and from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1413915. Detailed instructions can be found in the corresponding threads. After you install custom recovery download custom ROM for your device and flash it through recovery. Good luck with flashing .
Downgrade First

Hi,
What I did was downgrade back to GB by flashing the stock ROM which shipped with the Flyer this can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1062184
In my case it was RUU_Flyer_BrightstarUS_WWE_2.27.1540.31_R_Radio_20.3504.30.089BU_3809.07.04.06_M_release_204116_signed
Make sure that your Device is locked/re-locked before flashing the RUU
After which my Hboot was returned to 1.11.003, I then used revolutionary to gain S-Off.

You talking about this thread mentioned above?
Its got nothing to do with your number of posts. Looks like the links were dead, so the thread was placed in the trash.
If you look around on other threads, someone may have uploaded a mirror for the RUU you are looking for, or you may have to Google around.
