It does :/. Alright thanks it looks like im sticking to black.

I got the white EVO yesterday and it doesn't come with the new HBot. I'm already S-OFF with LazyPanda and rooting rejuvenated ROM as we speak!

Great!!!!!!!!!!
Anyone else?

Is Sprint the only place to get the white EVO?

thats not entirely true. when i got my first white evo july 13th it had the hboot 1.15... however when i brought it into Sprint to have them swap it out due to a vibration defect, the new one that i got had hboot 1.12 on it. pretty much luck of the draw.
and yes you can only get the white evo at a sprint store

I got my whitey about a week ago, and it is now S-OFF Came with the old software, thankfully.

My white one came with 1.12. Was very relieved to find that, I thought for sure it wouldn't be.

what he said. you're not going to have any problems by having s off. by putting s on, all you are going to end up doing is shooting yourself in the foot if you want to change it later
I apriciate your advices. But would like to know how to do it, if i ever need to do it. Also i can always s-off later back right? I'm new to Evo 3D so want to know my options...

ill trade you and s-on fone
I am pretty sure if you s-on and you upgrade to the hboot 1.5 you are screwed. I have 1.5 and there is no way for me to get s-off. I would just stay s-off dude. you are going to screw yourself.
If your phone shipped s-off then you shouldn't have any problems, even if you have to take your phone into Sprint for repair.
If you're on 1.50 there's no way to get S-OFF at this time. But if you REALLY wanted to I guess you could just flash the current RUU to revert to S-ON.
My phone was shiped s-off. Thought it was strange, but if there is now problem about it then i'll leave it like it was...

Has anyone had their phone replace via sprint ESRP recently? What h-boot did you get?

Seems that my phone is having random restarts so im going to have to have it replaced. However I want to be able to S-OFF my device.
Has anyone had theirs replaced via Sprint's ESRP lately? I'm curious what h-boot the phones are coming with now.
Yep just last week, I cracked my screen and they replace mine. It came with the 1.12 old hboot

Me too. Got my phone a couple of weeks ago. As I came in the rep said he updated the software on the phone for me so I figured it came with the OG H-Boot.
Last week. 1.15

did they replace it for free or with a charge?
Wife traded her S3 in on an EvoLTE last weekend. 1.12. I updated it anyway. She doesn't care about rooting as long as PDANET works, so figured I'd get her the fixes and root it later once the have s-off figured out. Plus it lets me get the JB update and see if it's worth while or not.
Mine is about a month old, came with 1.13, rooted, s-on.

Black screen camera

Ok so my camera used to work, im s-on rooted running a rom, camera app shows up, no preview and the buttons do
nothing. So, has any one had this and was able to fix it? What did you do? Any help would be appreciated.
And im a week beyond the 30 day warranty so no trading for a new one, and I don't really feel like sending it in to HTC
just yet.
You do know its one year warranty.

Unrooted and relocked bootloader, still no camera. Even did the latest RUU and no rear camera! will my htc warranty still
work since I did the htcdev unlock????????????????
If your still within your warranty time frame you should be fine. My last EVOLTE had major antenna issues and Sprint gave me a new one, even though it was rooted. And yes the tech knew it was rooted.

Ok but i'm out of my 30 day, so I'm stuck with the htc warranty. I called Htc and they said my warranty was fine. If they try to go into recovery, since I used HTCDEV will they just kick it back to me?? I don't know if some one will know this for sure, thought I would ask.

Hboot

So I may need to get a replacement phone and I was wondering if anyone knew if the new hboot was downgradeable?

Hadn't seen it until you posted it. Its interesting, i don't support the service but it really shows that we can achieve S-OFF, which is awesome.

They probably achieved s-off via jtag.. so it will be a while before devs achieve s-off. Not saying they can't do it.

wow interesting!
What exactly is jtag? I'm not a noob but I'm definitely not a dev... I also noticed the bootloader still said locked so I'm assuming they didn't have to use HTC dev first like my EVO LTE(just left sprint for T-Mobile). I'd like to keep from having to register my phone with HTC dev in case of warranty issues

Jtag is a service that can flash motherboards, they can unbrick them, root them, s-off, ect. Its only because they have the files from HTC them selves to do it. I have talked to them before in my HTC inspire 4g days.... Ide love to have an evo, 2nd best phone on the market

Ahh I see, makes sense... Too bad they won't release that to the public... I'll be selling my EVO LTE and nexus s 4g as soon as I clear my sprint account... I would have kept it if sprints data wasn't so horrible...
