Flashing custom recovery (I used CWM and have no problems flashing MeanROM ICS, MikVirgin ICS, or any other roms)

2.) Go back to your phone navigate to recovery (clockworkmod should come up)
** If you didn't drop su zip on your sd card before starting this process follow these steps
2a) mounts and storages > Mount sd card at bottom (drop su.zip from rootevo3d folder onto your sd card... then select unmount and navigate back to main CWM screen.**
3.) Install zips from sd card> choose zip from sd card (Find your su.zip and click yes) reboot phone continue

---Note Go to unlimited(dot)io and download for your phone
---Note make sure you have full battery
www.unlimited.io/content/uploads/2012/05/shooter.jpg
1.) extract your controlbearreleaseshooterwin.zip to desktop in a same named folder.
2.) take the back off your phone then reconnect to computer
3.) You will need to creat a contact device I used a lead from a voltmeter and a paperclip with tape.. Its not that hard guys

4.) Click controlbear run follow the onscreen commands when it says its ready touch lead 1 to point 1 and tap lead 2 to point 2 breifly then again in 1.75seconds
** note I taped it then counted 1 onethousand 2 onethousand 1 one thousand 2 onethousand ** worked like a charm

Theres your first thank..
But i am already S-OFFed with hboot 1.4

Cool but is there a way to do this without having to go register at another website? I hate registering at all of these websites too many passwords and too much spam once they get your info.

Only other option would be to use someone else's htcdev account, they also send you the second portion of the instructions to unlock your bootloader via email. You have to use htcdev, if you don't have 1.5 you can use revolutionary but than you wouldn't need this thread

Or you can downgrade hboot and then use revolutionary and not give HTC your warranty on a silver platter.

I always forget about that lol I myself have never had to claim a phone warranty so meh if you're worried about your warranty you should avoid this method

You're one of the lucky few. I've had to swap devices 4 times on this phone and 5 on my OG EVO. It's hit or miss really.

thanks really helped, now I can flash roms on my phone

---

Yeah I do consider myself lucky with all the stories I hear, I got my 3d third party though from a guy that had it for a while so hopefully it's safe to say I didn't get a dud, but yeah with all the phones I've had, I never once had to do a claim

Good to see this has helped a few
I will be going over this thread this weekend as I have to go through the process again with a second evo3d. I will try and add some usefull photos and clear up anything that might not already be clear. I might also do a video on the juopunut bear I haven't decided yet we'll see howmuch time I have .
