Hi all..I just bought this phone and still in it's box..I had many android phones before and used to root and and flash costume roms regualrily..all I need is a go ahead on how to root and install CWM recovery and the best possible rom in ur opinion cause quite frankly I am lost because of all the threads and tutorials including the version number and all the warnings I read so I am trying to avoid any risk losing this phone since I live in Iraq and it's bad maintainance here and no one knows how to sort things when comes to repair..thanks in advance and really appreciate any help provided.. so happy to get this phone
Usr htcdev to unlock it, flash cwm, then either go s-off and flash your Rom and kernel or stay s-on and flash you ROM, kernel, then fastboot flash the boot.img. Tutorials are in main sections depending on whether you have CDMA or GSM. I personally recommend leedroid or mikrunny.

I can't add the links as I'm on phone but www.htcdev.com has the unlock instructions. As for the rest they are in the forums, try the stickies first. With regards to problems the only ones I would say are the battery life is not particularly stellar on any Rom really, and ics roms don't have functioning camera, but aside from that it is one hell of a good phone with the 3d as a nice bonus .

If you are xdma there is no need to void your warranty with HTC Dec. Look in the cdma Dev section under the stickies and just soff the bad boy. Pretty easy even if you have never run Linux before.

I am lost!!!!alot of talking about frimware and Shooter RUU and stuff...it's complex guys
Shooter, ruu, versions.. your lost?
Hey I would just like to share in part of your confusion and let you know, take it a step at a time! And always READ READ READ , everyone here is very helpful and if you have a question chances are its been answered the only thing is finding the answer hence, "read read read." As for "Shooter" I know HTC phones use code names and Shooter represents our phones the Htc EVO 3d , Supersonic represents Htc EVO 4G, so on and so forth. RUU's I know are the "STOCK" files the completely revert your phone to stock and stand for either "Rom update utility" or something of that nature I am still unsure but Have used before to update my radios through hboot as I am on HBoot 1.5 and wanted the new 2.17 base. As the versions and radios/hboot, software all of the above , on your phone go menu/settings/about phone and read about your versions of software, baseband represents your radio and software info will be something like 2.17.651.5 "build number" is exactly stated in that menu of the phone. Good luck !

Thankful..but still!
I can't thank u enough..u and the whole HTC forum family are really helpful and great..so I am going to read about what I'm gonna do..and then ask if I am right or not..first thing I registered in HTCdev site to unlock bootloader but there are minimum choices of countries..so I chose US and hence they asked me to choose my phone but they only give a list of Evo 3D with carriers(Sprint and T-mobile and soon)so I am afraid I may do anything wrong..mine is GSM version and not carrier specific and I live in Iraq..what shoould I do now??

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?

Can anyone tell me if rooting will screw up my phone so it might not work over here anymore like connecting to towers or not able to send messages

maybe it wont effect anything at all and my phone will work fine, im just clueless right now

Simple answer: Probably not but depends
Longer answer: The main factor I forsee is how to gain root access. Given the locked bootloader on this device, the process has been much more complex. Which version of he bootloader do you have? Does revolutionary work or is the only option HTC's unlock method?
The answer to these two questions will probably determine your fake. Either way, for the most part, having gained root access on the device and still running a stock ROM, will more than likely guarantee there are no tower/carrier issues.
Generally, with most custom ROMs, there should also be no carrier/tower issues but unless the ROM has been tested to work in Japan on those networks, there is no guarantee.
The only big conflict I would imagine would be taking a rooted device into the carrier for service. Probably best at this point to reload stock software and remove root access in order to ensure the device the hardware is using completely stock software and thus eliminate any odd issues from custom "unofficial" software.
As a side note, if you're read this far through my message, if the htc unlock process is the only option, my app, Flash Image GUI, works very well in helping flash kernels due to the HTC unlock limitation of not allowing kernel write access while in standard recovery mode. Have a few guides in the OP to my Flash Image GUI thread.
Hope that helps! Good luck!
I have the 1.5 bootloader and I just read all about the difficulties with it.
Thanks so much for the reply by the way
So your saying to do the HTC dev method to unlock to flash roms and then use your program to flash different kernel's?
I do for now want and kinda need the Japanese rom
So ill keep this rom if I use the HTC way?

Yes he is. You can change the ROM even if you use the HTC unlock method. Some things may not work properly if you flash the ROMs on here because of conflicting files. I learned that when I ported the Japanese Evo 3D ROM to the Sprint version of the 3D. You will have to flash custom ROMs based off the Japanese HTC stock ROM

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.

Hello, I've just received my new HTC EVO 3D after a long time with my loved HTC HD2...
Now I'm searching for tips 'n tricks to do on the EVO 3D something similar to what I successful did on the HD2. But before, I have some questions:
- I've seen a lot of ROMs also for the EVO 3D, but all them supports 3D on screen and camera?
- In your experience with custom roms for EVO 3D, what's the best rom without sense?
-What's the requirements to install a custom rom?
Many thanks in advance
Sorry for my bad english.
If the ROM is based on official stock firmware then yes, it will fully support 3D. Leedroid is IMO the best out there.

Uhm I realized that my phone has already installed "something" inside.. it's most likely an used phone:
*** UNLOCKED ***
SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.49.0018
eMMC-boot
Oct 3 2011, 15:03:01
This is what I see pressing power button+volume down at phone turned off.
What I should do?
There aren't yet some ICS preview-based ROMs with working 3D due to the HTC announce of an official ICS update for the EVO 3D?
That's not a new phone, somebody has HTCDev unlocked it. However this is actually quite good as you can now install a custom recovery and then either:
Install a custom ROM and kernel image manually or
S-Off the device after a hboot downgrade and install roms easier.
As you are a GSM EVO 3D user you have access to a couple very good ICS roms however none at the moment support the camera or Bluetooth (or playback of 3D media for that matter). As you concluded its because HTC are yet to release official ICS for devs to port the libraries and drivers from.

What changes between a phone with S-OFF and another with S-ON?
And I read that if I choose to unlock the flash security (S-OFF), I should before return to an HTCDev lock status... how can I perform this?

I think there is a very good MIUI ROM available but it only supports camera if you have a 5+2 megapixel version instead of the older 5+5 megapixel version.
An HTCDev unlock has already been performed on your phone so that part isn't an issue, have to admit I've never hears of a live cd downgrade for GSM versions.

To check what camera you have in your phone, try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1482664
Scroll down a bit to where it says "Camera checking".
If you have S-ON you have to either use an app made by a recognized developer Joeykrim to flash kernels, or you have to use fastboot command (while connected by a USB cable to a computer) in ADB. You cannot use the normal way of flashing kernels in recovery, as that will leave you with an endless bootlooping phone. (And, i dont think S-ON can flash a new splash screen? Someone confirm please)
If you are S-OFF, you can basicly do whatever you want, whatever way you want. No need for USB cables, apps and such. Just boot into recovery and flash what you want.
Very nice, I need the S-OFF lol
I should search a procedure for S-OFF my GSM EVO 3D.
The "Camera Checking" app isn't anymore on the play store, so I can't download it.
No problem, I'll test directly the ROM on my phone to check it after done the S-OFF.
Any suggestion to S-OFF an EVO 3D GSM?

I'm almost certain the live cd is only for CDMA. To achieve S-Off with my EVO 3D I downgraded my hboot via this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1535987 make sure you completely and thoroughly read the entire thread through before attempting any of it.
I'm reading it, but i think some points are useless for me.. my phone has already the bootloader unlocked "HTC way" and root access on stock rom.
So, please confirm this, I need only to follow the third procedure (third post) on thread you linked me: "Downgrading your HBOOT".
Where I can find the CID code?
Flash maniac ( XDA member ) has an downgrade guide so that you will have an hboot version that you can s-off.

No viper should work with s-on, you might have to flash the boot.img in fastbootusb to get wifi and or radio to work
I am s-on hboot 1.53.0007 and havent had any problems with Viper, worked like a charm without the need to fastboot, just activated smartflash in 4ext tools. Only thing I have to take in account is that on my hboot cm, aokp, etc do not work, only sense bases and apparently miui

You need to get your phone S-OFF my man, it's quite simple. It seems like it's a complicating process but the process is just, going back to stock by flashing latest RUU for your carrier, running the ControlBear.exe, waiting for it to tell you to do the wire trick, and just doing it. You might mess it up, I know I did. Might take you 1 time, might take you 5, might take you 19 (in my case), but all in all, you're most likely going to get it. And it's 100% worth it.

You might mess it up, I know I did. Might take you 1 time, might take you 5, might take you 19 (in my case), but all in all, you're most likely going to get it. And it's 100% worth it.

You also need to do the htcdev.com bootloader unlock after flashing the RUU. That step is kind of important.

I know guys, but flashing the ruu failed in my case every time, even though i am 100% sure it was the correct ruu. Also, wire trick requires 32bit operating system and i have win 7 64bit, and i have waaay too much sensitive data on my laptop to afford bothering with an os reinstall just for this, to be honest. Ok, this means no JB and no roms other than sense, but I am rather ok with that. Maybe one day I will, but right now i feel too lazy to install new os, set it up, flash ruu, reunlock, reroot, s-off and then reinstall 64bit os again so i can continue my work as i should...
