This phone is nearly unrootable if the stickies aren't read and search function not used.

Read this. After reading that do some searching on this forum. Its pretty easy after you know whats going on. Sounds like you have the experience. Oh and if you have questions. Search for an answer its all here somewhere. People dont like to help much in this forum. Just passing some info to you. Search and you will find it!

I think its more important you learn the lesson that had been shown here... literally all you had to do was read the stickies in this section and you would have answered your question...
With that being said, read the stickies in this section, they help quite a bit.

It's actually quite a bit easier to root than an HTC phone.

Free hot-spot has nothing to do with root, I believe.

Sure it does. Root is required for wireless tethering and/or deleting the TetheringManager apk.

Thanks for correcting me, I've never used that feature so I don't know.
Apologize to OP too.
For some reason, I always think we got free wifi in AT&T, McDonald, Panera, ..... hot-spots unless OP wants to host a wifi hot-spot. Maybe I misunderstood.

Oh, you bring up an interesting point...I assumed he meant mobile hotspot/tethering. But I could have misunderstood as well...if he means hotspots like McDonalds and Panera, you're right about root not being an issue.

I was really enjoying this post. Until I got to the part where it says "people don't like to help much in this forum". Now....I could go off on a huge rant. But I won't. Suffice it to say, a lot of people are willing to help here. But anyone who makes an account here should also be able to help themselves.

After having read and searched, and reading and searching, if you still have a question, most here will give you as much help as they can possibly give.

when will evo 3d have root / tethering free?

I'm on an Evo 4G, and I am trying to decide if I should go for the Evo 3D.
It's probably premature to ask - but based on the comments about the bootloader locking, does it look like Evo 3D will be unlockable at any point soon after it's release? Wireless tethering is a necessity for me and I don't want to pay the extra fee.
I appreciate any speculation!

Come on!!! No one knows yet. Bootloader will be unlocked, just got a system dump the other day so they could be working on it as we speak. However no one knows if Bootloader will be unlocked, unlikely, when released or if it will be an OTA, most likely and when that would even be.
Sorry but there are threads going on right now on each of these topics, I'm guessing 5 minimum of each topic.
First of all, here is a tampon - I think u need it.
Second of all - no I don't see 5 threads on this subject.
Third - you provided no relevant information so why reply?
All I was asking is roughly when people guess it would happen / what things need to happen. I don't read this forum for a full time job.
If you just linked me to one of these 5 supposed threads containing this info I would delete the post and your *sad* little life could be that much happier without this thread.
Anything else?

Well then I take back anything I told you about the bootloader being , or getting, unlocked, Also that stuff about how they just got a system dump with in the past 48 hours that is worth anything and that as far as we know they may be working on Root as we speak. Yeah ignore that part too.
I'm sorry if all my relevant information wasn't enough to please you! Sure sprint is thrilled for your to get the 3D to avoid the teethering fee.
Nexus S4G has free tether you know and is available now no root needed. Just sayin.

Another update from HTC

I think this is the strongest response yet. This is from Facebook 26 minutes ago.
‎"There has been overwhelmingly customer feedback that people want access to open bootloaders on HTC phones. I want you to know that we've listened. Today, I'm confirming we will no longer be locking the bootloaders on our devices. Thanks for your passion, support and patience," Peter Chou, CEO of HTC
Now if it takes more than a week. Me thinks they have to convince Sprint. If Sprint isn't in the loop my guess is a couple days based on this tone.
There is nothing here that wasn't announced on May 27th......All you are doing is taking up space and getting people's hopes up.
Is this new? They used that quote before.

Rooted w/Working 4G (Pics)

Giving this it's own post- not because I feel special, but because it's so easy for this to get lost in the shuffle as it pertains to 4G connectivity after root. And I seem to be one of the few whose 4G is working.
I rooted my MoPho using [ACS] Photon 4G AIO root and lost 4G connectivity like so many others did. The next day, I restarted my phone and 4G was working flawlessly.
This is a screenshot showing my 4G connection actively working

This screenshot is just to show I am in fact rooted.
I don't have the knowledge some of you have when it comes to this Moto rooting stuff. It was easier to do on the Evo. Please don't ask me anything detailed cause the only thing I did after applying root was go to bed. I rebooted my phone sometime the next afternoon and 4G was working.
Honestly im happy yours is working but please....ask yourself this next time before posting....what am I developing?...please post matters like this in the general section.

It is responses like yours which make people feel extremely uncomfortable posting here. I actually posted this for the developers whom I couldn't post for earlier due to lack of screen capture app.

ITT the OP doesn't realize the difference between rooting the system and unlocking the bootloader.
Troll? Lol funny. You can tell the kids that just joined xda. I mean seriously almost every forum on the site has just about the same rules! Tighten up seriously and post in the write sections! And its obvious who the real trolls are! The people that continuously post general topics and questions in the development section! If you arent developing anything by all means dont clutter up this section! Devs/themers all look in the general section, not just the dev section. So theres no need to post these types of threads!

Don't apologize dude, mistakes happen. People need to lighten up. Anyways, unless this post was moved it's in the right section. We need people working together we don't need forum police.
The rule of thumb is unless you are posting a ROM, MOD or Hack it doesn't go into the Development section. But seriously people, relax this isn't a big deal. Let's not kill the forums before anything really gets started.

Being the general section ill post whatever the hell i feel like and if you dont like it just move on and dont reply. All people like yall do is continue to run this place into the ground. Maybe after more developers leave and continue to start their own forums the mods will get rid of you people that degrade others and keep up with your pointless stupidity. Damn

U mean u used the e3d as a wiimote?
If so what did u use ...are u on a ROM. Or stock ?

What above brings anything to the community that is even somewhat useful without people coming in asking a bunch of questions? Now, if you would have said that you use got the wiimote working on a sense rom and shared what you did, then that would be worth starting a thread.
Could you imagine if everybody did what you are doing? The general section would be full of absolutely nothing useful at all.

Sounds to me like you fully understand what kinda threads will be flamed for being redundant/retarded. Yes, it is the general section and you can start whatever threads you please, on the flip side, people like myself will be there to say things like "hey, think twice before wasting my screen space with your dumbass threads, you make me move my thumbs too much..."
It's a general forum, so shut up and let him post what ever he wants to post, you like it klick it, enjoy it, if not dont even bother comment!

You know, normally I don't have a problem with threads, but you've just come in here saying "I got wiimote working, cool, lulz" and stuff, but have provided no information.
If you have wiimote working on an AOSP rom, you're quite late to the party. However, if you have it working on a Sense based rom, you should inform people how you did it, rather than just saying you have it working. People aren't flaming you for the thread in general, they're flaming you for the lack of information.
He has had multiple threads deleted because of lack of anything with substance. He will get the picture eventually.

All Users, New and Old.

If you've seen this video before, then you'll understand what it stands for, for the others? Watch, listen and don't be surprised when you never receive an answer.
This is a development site, a lot of effort is put into creating user friendly guides and tutorials.
In this Specific device forum, we put more effort into gathering all information and troubleshooting about this device here:
The Ultimate Guide to Everything Amaze-ing!(Amaze 4g BIBLE!) Updated Often
If it's absolutely NOT there, then find a thread similar to it and post in there, DO NOT post a new thread for every question, if you have an old thread post it there, if you have multiple questions, post it all in one post and if you have another question that comes to mind after that post, EDIT your post and add it in, DON'T MAKE THREE POST FOR THREE QUESTIONS, WE ARE NOT GOING TO READ, ANSWER, READ, ANSWER AND KEEP REPEATING THE SAME PROCESS WHICH COULD'VE BEEN DONE IN THE FIRST REPLY!
If you're too lazy to search for the answer to your own problem, then don't expect US to do it for you, we KNOW what's available and what isn't, so telling us you can't find it? Just lets us know YOU ARE LAZY.
If you're a total NOOB? I'd advise you to head over to the amaze bible, read, understand, read it again, understand and read AGAIN until you grasp the detail and understand what you're dealing with, if you don't get it? You must be a tad bit slow.
DO NOT bombard dev threads with questions, read their FAQ post, READ IT READ IT READ IT and again READ. Your question has been answered before and if you're the only one having that problem? It's obviously not the devs fault. Found a bug? If it's unique, worth looking at and it wasn't answered before, POST A LOGCAT, we aren't mind readers or magicians!
DO NOT post questions in the general forum! There is a question and answer forum for a reason, I from this day refuse to answer questions posted in the general forum, regular and advanced members should do the same, this practice has to STOP.
USE THE THANKS BUTTON
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You get an answer or any kind of HELP, press the THANKS button, DON'T post "thanks", you're already welcome, but is it really relevant to post a whoooole post just to say "thanks"? really? There's a button for that.
Press thanks on every rom thread you open and download, you don't have any idea the countless hours devs spend creating the ROMs they do JUST FOR YOU to have better experience using YOUR device, though he/she is getting nada for it. Be grateful, press THANKS!
Donate to a dev if you can, a little donation is a very welcome and very much appreciated form of showing a dev their work is loved and appreciated, their countless hours of their own personal time was totally worth it and that you end users think they deserve just a kind token of appreciation for their work. It goes a long way, even if it's a simple 5 bucks, most of them are college/high school students, like many of our devs here, so hit that thanks button and donate if you can, it's very much appreciated.
Do Not PM devs or common regs or MODS unless they say they're okay with getting PM's, have a problem with a post? Then report it, not everyone wants their inbox being blown up with irrelevant questions and things that can be found in a forum, they usually have support threads, use those to let a dev know something, ONLY PM if it is absolutely important like you're-gonna-die-if-this-person-doesn't-help-you important. Got it? The reaction of some people will be VERY NICE for PM's about none sense and YOU cannot feel insulted if you get a rude response, you simply went looking for it.
I shall continue this post as I see things to be added, that is all, now go have fun reading, since that's where we learn all the basics before practice, you read read read, watch youtube videos of someone doing it. (There's a video of everything on youtube), then read read read some more, be sure and confident before attempting something you have no clue about, if you have NO clue about it, then why on earth are you about to do it? Don't be a noob, be a newb that's willing to be the next Recognized Dev/Contributor/Themer/Mod/Admin sometime in the future.
If you don't like what I have to say and think my point of view is somehwat "rude"?

To be fair, without the end user, your product is useless, but I get what you're saying.
Dark, I see your zeal, but it is time wasted. People do what they want regardless of what is said. Some of us fought the battle and got nowhere. I always like to see someone take up the mantle tho, keep it up
For everyone else, show some fkn courtesy and listen to what is being said. This isn't xda-babysitters! I'm out!
I agree with Dark when he said

I agree. I made my Amaze toolkit for myself since I warrantied my phone in ever other day and wanted to make the process of rooting quick and easy. Then I shared it and made it better for myself.

I have a YouTube channel and you'll be surprised how many people message me asking them to "walk them through" the process of rooting and flashing a rom -_- I give them links and threads but that's not enough because they're "new to Android and don't feel comfortable" :/
