You need to have ignored the ota to accomplish this. If you took the ota you can only use HTC dev

HBOOT upgrade/downgrade

Hello XDA Users,
I got for 3 Days my EVO 3D.
The first thing I did was updating my EVO 3D to get some nice 3D Games.
Well after a quick search on the market I got an app that want root access for my EVO 3D.
My HBoot Version is currently 1.49.0018 so I want to root it.
Is there a way to downgrade it to 1.49.0007 - 8 or upgrade the Hboot Version to 1.50 to get root access?
best regards
Don't update to 1.5 whatever you do. If you still ahve the 1.49 go ahead and look in the 3D general forum at the stickies for a good rooting guide.

Best root method?

So I'm trying to figure out which root is the best one to go with. Any recommendations? Did some reading on lazy panda s-off and I'm assuming it's the best if not only way to get s-off. Here is the software my phone is on. I just wanna make sure I meet the prerequisites before I attempt this lol.

I was reading that it needs to be stock 1.13? Is that hboot or software?

if you took the OTA then you are pretty much screwed and only have 1 option, HTC Unlock. you can use the Rawsomething method that makes it easy and automated, but no LazyPanda for you.

I flashed the radio when i was just unlocked last week, installed the freshrom that it refers to in the lazypanda thread and followed the instructions to the letter yesterday with no issues and now im s-off.
sweet! i saw so many people take the update, even PKMN rom asked if you wanted to apply the update.

I noticed in the thread about LazyPanda s-off that there is a chance that u can brick the device? What's the probability of that happening?
Sent from my White Evo
It is unknown, but it is a temp brick and the unbricker has a 100% success rate.

You are 1.19 then. Accepting that OTA guarantees it

Ok thanks! Now I will head on over to find a way to root this baby tonight! Oh yeah! Is it better to root with s-off? Or root and maintain s-on? I want to run custom ROMs and kernels and be able to make backups. Just like how I did back then with the og evo.
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
Since you have the latest hboot there is no s-off for you. Just go to htcdev and unlock that way then flash recovery then whatever rom u want.
I am looking and reading about which way to root and get soff. Any preferences? I dont think im gonna miss my shift, well right now I do.

Different ways to get HTC EVO LTE S-OFF

Curious if there is any other ways to achieve S-Off on an already rooted EVO hboot 1.12 other than DirtyRacun as I am not having any luck with that method.

I am also on hboot 1.12 and am currently S-ON rooted and HTCDEV unlocked. Looking for an S-Off method other than DirtyRacun because I have x64 Windows and would really rather not update my hboot for S-OFF or mess around with Linux.
If I could get a hold of the Lazy Panda file would it be helpful based on my situation?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Yesterday I did the deed, and got S-OFF. I was running a 1.12 hboot after downgrading several months earlier. Had to RUU up to a 1.19 hboot for the Racun to do it's thing. Otherwise it was a quick, and painless operation. If you need help go the #unlimited IRC channel on freenode.net.
If you're already hboot 1.12, lazypanda is a simple executable that needs no more than administrative privileges and 5-10 minutes.

Why not upgrade from 1.12 to 1.19 to use dirtyracun? Only reason why not to upgrade before was because there wasn't an s off method for 1.19 lol

Problem now is, Lazy Panda is no longer supported by Team Unlimited. If you get into a tight spot and need help, you're potentially going to be screwed. Having said that, myself and many others have successfully used it since support for it ceased. Risk versus reward, I suppose.

Juopunutbear is no longer supported on the 3D, but I was able to use it successfully just a couple weeks ago on a used phone I got from eBay for my wife. As long as you follow the directions as closely as possible, you shouldn't run into any issues.

So is there now way to get soff on a new device these days? WTF?
Just had to get my phone replaced and I can't seem to find clear direction on how to get S-Off anymore. Can't believe it.
I don't even know how to function with a S-On phone. Seriously.

You can use FacePalm found in original development if you are not on the latest OTA 3.16.651.3

I JUST used Lazy Panda after being rooted on the newest software update and it wasn't a problem. Don't hesitate to use it.

I'm calling BS on this ^^^^^
LazyPanda is no longer supported and unless you have the files you cannot find them anywhere.
LazyPanda ONLY works for hboot 1.12 it will not work on "the newest software update"

Well it cane with 3.16.651.3 so I am out of luck there.
So it looks like I am stuck like chuck for now. :sigh:
I actually have the lazy panda files but don't have the instructions for my hboot.
Gotta say reading the lazy panda page reads like a 12 year old girl got soff on our device.

DirtyRacun will work on 3.16 but you have to use Linux (windows is no longer supported)
I did BabyRacun so I could install 3.15 and finished with FacePalm. Had not one issue other than user error. Lol. Worked great. Did that today on my replacement of which Sprint decided to update fully.

How to get s-on?

Hi guys, going to sell the Evo LTE to someone and want to get s-on before the sale. How would I do so? Thanks in advance.

Just use the bootloader customizer tool.

Probably not a good idea, since it would still be S-off. Could be a headache for the future owner if they aren't aware.
OP, if you used Lazy Panda to get S-off, check out the link below.

Otherwise, check the Development forum.

Why would you want to s-on? Chances are the buyer won't even know anything about it. And if they do realize then they'd probably appreciate it. Just my thoughts...
