If all you're asking is if you can Stock root then- yes you don't HAVE to flash a custom ROM. Unlock via HTCDEV.com, flash a custom recovery (TWRP, 4EXT, CWM) and download SU (superuser.apk) flash that and viola! no need to flash a custom ROM. I would do a back up incase you ever do want to venture out into the ROOTING world that way you could always go back to stock rooted. There are tons of threads on here in the Dev section that can give you much more detail than I can from here

Does unlocking the bootloader allow for rooting without having to lose everything on my phone?

Unlocking bootloader returns your phone to a factory state so backup as much as you can before doing that.

Thank you for your prompt response. Does using the revolution method require flashing?

Revolutionary method do not work with ICS hboots. If you have flashed ICS there is no other method than HTC Dev unlock at the moment. If you want root only follow dgomez720 instruction.

Give ne instructions pls

first post is for cdma and second for gsm. You should read about this quite a lot before you attempt it. cause most newbies get stuck on some step for sure. GSM people mostly because they updated to ICS and they now have 1.53.xxxx hboot

if you are CDMA then just follow this simple guide:

Read through this thread. Apparently some Evo 3D mainboards are incompatible with the HTC unlock procedure.
One post I found indicated that it might have to do with the CID of the phone. You can issue the "fastboot getvar cid" command to see what yours is currently.
I would suggest you contact HTC via the developers website instead of posting the same question over and over again on multiple forums, since that will at least get you an infraction if not banned from XDA.

Since you can't seem to be able to search I'll just re-post the entire first post just for you. Forbid you actually have to look for it. I even enhanced a critical piece of information for those that can't find it for whatever reason.
Hi,
this is a development & collection Thread. The PH85IMG.ZIP files can be flashed through SD-CARD in HBoot Mode. This works only for S-OFF users. If you don't have S-OFF you cannot use the files.
There is no way to get S-OFF on a normal S-ON phone now.
Pulled Hboots:
Eng Hboot 1.90.2005: http://xda.niksie.nl/index.php?option=com_jdownloads&Itemid=0&view=viewcategory&catid=213
MD5:2b4c54a53af0d9f6e314723be3a076b4
If you want to help, check if you have S-ON or S-OFF. Turn off the phone, reboot with the volume button held down, and check at the top of the white screen if it says "SHIP S-ON", "SHIP S-OFF" or "ENG S-OFF". S-ON is stock and not helpful, SHIP S-OFF could be useful, the really helpful ones are ENG S-OFF. Please don't post asking if you can help if you have S-ON.
HOW TO DUMP YOUR HBOOT (please remember this is only interesting if you already have S-OFF)
1. Download ADB: http://www.mediafire.com/?5d0v316g9bg97
2. Extract the contents of the zip to C:\
3. Run the commands below:
Code:
cd c:\adb
adb shell
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p12 of=/sdcard/hboot.img
Note: If your device is not detected, download and install HTC Sync.
4. Connect your phone in USB Mode, copy the hboot.img file from your SD card and upload it to Multiupload.
How To Flash Eng Hboot:
1. Comming soon

Root Hboot 1.50 HTC Method (HELP!)

So last night I used the 2.08.651 temp root and was able to backup my apps (even though im on 2.17). Now I'm wondering how I can permanent root on 2.3.4 with 2.17.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239821
I'm a little confused with that guide. Can someone help me out?
(like must i flash the 2.08 RUU?)
My EVO is on:
Stock 2.3.4
HBOOT 1.50
2.17.651.5
Welcome to the club of "No permanent root" (yet) if you have an Evo 3d with HBOOT 1.5.
As far as I know, the best we can have is "temp root" using HTC's "unlock" method. I'm in the same boat as you. I might me wrong, but I don't think flashing 2.08 will do you any good.

You will have to use htcdev.com method for unlocking.
http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-3d-hacks/how-to-root-evo-3d-2-08-651-2-and-later-htc-unlock-method/
Zedomax I believe has the best guide for rooting 2.17 hboot hboot 1.5.
No you don't need to flash 2.08. With s-on for some roms you will have to unzip the ROM and put the boot.img in the SDK tools or whatever folder adb and fastboot are in. 2.17 has some very stable roms, check out Cleanrom and meanrom from mikeyxda
I've also got some updated Flashing/notes (see my signature) that go along with Zedomax's guide.

Assuming u have Hboot 1.50, you need to re-lock the bootloader via fastboot command then run Full 2.17 Ruu (this will wipe the phone) , run the unlock code again & re-root. (same link in my signature)
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
Why do you want to upgrade to the new software package? Most ROMs are using the 2.08 software base for their builds.
Good thinking..

well, if all you're wanting to do it turn it into a brick. I can ship you a brick via UPS. lol Then you could use that brick that I ship you to turn it into a brick. hehehe.
Just watch the videos on youtube and do exactly what they do. the timing has to be right.
Have you tried to run a RUU?

First I would suggest that you get S-Off. You should be able to complete that using revolutionary.
Once that is done let me know. Go to revolutionary.io and follow the instructions there to obtain s-off.

There is an extra guide for this.
(did the same with EU RUU + HEX editing of img i made with dd command etc.)
Dunno if there is a difference of rooting cdma version u have.
Maybe u`r hboot is corrupted, but don`t panic yet... with upgrade - downgrade, u should fix it. (in theory)
If u`r screen gets black... ye, it`s bricked
U`r still far away from it? )
revolutionary not work either.
waiting for device...
The good news for you is that you have HBoot 1.40 so you only need to root or to restore via RUU

You can read this thread.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1535987 ...
Get a new unlocktoken from HTC, flash that via fastboot, reboot into bootloader, and then lock it
Code:
fastboot oem lock
That should fix your problem, before that, you would want to flash a corresponding(Your country specific rom through bootloader). that would fix most issues. do not try to change the cid to anything if you do not intend to give it for repairs... If seriously want to change the cid, then try to edit it with a hex editor.
Hi,
Thank you for the links. Although o have tried them. Doesn't work.
I was able to flash leedroid without problems and I do fastboot flash the boot.img.
The problem is I can't flash anything else. Trying ARHD or some other tweaks but it always says "install aborted" on recovery.
I cannot relock as well. RUU's are slowly downloading and will try to punch that in as soon as it is finished.
As for the pg86img it does nothing.
Also use free evo. It rebooted to the old HTC bootup animation then rebootes back to Leedroid

3.28.401.1-1.20.401.8 <- that bit usually indicates the new software version from the old software version if I am not mistaken.
so you can't put the letters RUU on the beginning of an OTA file and get results
