any work arounds?
1. Yes, you can still flash ROMs even on the new hboot.
2. All you have to do is use RegawMOD to do everything, and then flash a couple of SU zips.
3. Questions belong in the Q&A section.
In the future, never accept an ota

Well, what I'm going to probably do is accidentally my phone, then get another without the HBOOT problem. Unless I can be more patient, but...S-OFF = awesome. .
You can do HTC unlock which is what I had to do... Works great. I am enjoying all the roms as if I was s-off

But it's not S-OFF!!! Everyone wants S-OFF. I want S-OFF. And I'm impatient. I want to flash my damn splash screen and boot screens and stuff. Grrrrrrrrrr....
BUT...I love this phone. I want to break it and get another, but then I feel like I'm breaking my small child or something...and that's never fun.

Good advice!
...not as much fun, though.
EDIT: Just to clarify, the previous doesn't mean that I can't wait, it just means that I feel the frustration of others who had bad things happen (like OTA updates!). We'll get it, though. Still a new phone, still lots of fun stuff to play with....and at least we have the HTC Unlock available, and can still get root.

Well.. Someone complained and blamed HTC for their own mistake, and then someone else decided they wanted to purposely break their phone in order to get a new one.
So it's probably as silly as it looks.
Being S-off is overrated. Its the same as being HTC Unlock.

That's not exactly true after this last update. If I recall correctly, if you HTC Unlock on 1.22, you can't flash kernels through recovery, you have to do it another way. I think there were other things we couldn't do anymore as well.

Absolutely not my good sir. In Addition to flashing kernels, you can't flash radios, splash screens, ect through recovery and you can't flash anything not signed by HTC via bootloader

you cannot unlock an encrypted bootloader or it would of been done already. i don't know what it's going to take to get it through some of your heads.

??????? If it wasn't currently locked or going to be released locked then HTC would say so, as this is giving them bad PR.
From the statement they released it undoubtedly wasn't going to be released unlocked....

Can the xtc clip not even unlock it because its suppose to unlock all bootloaders and devices up to date ?
There's a difference between locked and encrypted. The Evo3D bootloader is encrypted. Which requires cracking a 256 bit AES key. Anyone work for the NSA?

Not saying I disagree or agree but time will tell. Still, I can understand your frustration in waiting. I kinda miss my Evo 4G, also. I used to flash a different rom every week. But I'm going to wait it out instead of returning my 3D (like others have talked about). Regardless of who unlocks it first, (I really hope TeamWin will unlock it before HTC as I think HTC's method will likely come with a "catch"), I look forward to the excitement coming back to this phone. Until then, I will try to enjoy the stock rom while keeping an eye on XDA for permanent root.
I cracked my screen and am going to pick up my replacement either monday or tuesday. I know I need to do a nandroid and then a factory reset, but do I need to unroot?
If your turning it in I would just for good measure. Some say Verizon doesn't even look to see if you've rooted, but with the direction the company is going, there's no telling what they'll do.

Yes, here is a very easy way to get back to the complete stock setup. Name this file PG05IMG.Zip and reboot into the bootloader to install.

It's an insurance replacement. Nobody is gonna ask. If they do, it got lost. Why would you even think of giving it to them?
I don't mean to hijack, but I am rooted and have bamf. So I just put that file on my phone and install it in hboot and im back to stock?

Also this.
The current HTC unlock allows kernel flashing and even radio flashing, so S-off really isn't needed anymore.
Well aside from getting access to bootloader and getting rid of things like the tampered message and the disclaimer text on splash. But those are cosmetic.
oh okay. Huh. thanks

Every day it's the same thing, people asking about s-off. Use the search button, it's up on the top of the screen and provides the ability to find other discussions and potentially the answer to the question you are about to ask.

No.
To achieve root access, you must unlock.
