You could try uninstalling, then reinstalling drivers...

I don't think reg has updated his rooter... Since ur already unlocked flash twrp and just flash urself a custom Rom that's already rooted but I recommend u S-Off first so u don't have to be flashing the kernal through bootloader

Can you change from charge only mode to sd when you have your phone connected to pc?
If I choose havedisk on my phone then my sd card shows up but when I have it hooked up to the computer nothing shows up only on my phone
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Your going to have to try another pc. If you can't see the sd on another pc then it would probably be the usb port on your phone. What it looks like is that either the rx or tx contact on the phones usb port is damaged. If you don't have another pc then take it to sprint and tell them that you can't transfer data to your sd via pc. The will check the port for you.
Ok I noticed when clicking from charge only to media sync where the phone icon would show on the computer something flashes there when I switch them but its so fast I can't read what it says but it doesn't stay
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Yup it sounds like the USB port on the phone, you said you tried another cable right?

ive tried everything and there s no prompt to tell me to use disk drive for example ive even done a reset.
im currently on s-off hboot 1.49.008 (not revolutionary) with kingcobra rom. i honestly think its the hboot but i cant do anything since i cant get it to connect to the pc
does anyone have an idea of what might be the cause
thx
Are you sure you are using the correct usb cord, do you have the drivers installed on your computer, try to reboot your cpu, try another usb port, it's not likely your phone

Thx for the reply
Its 100% the phone because i have 2 evo 3ds at home and am using same port and htc usb cable only 1 evo 3d is not working and ive tryed different pcs
Try swapping sd cards, are you using kernel that is included with the rom, did you do a full wipe when you flashed the rom, try the easy stuff, before you start messing with hboot, when you plug in phone do you at least get the option to charge the phone

I tryed all of the above and yes i did a full wipe and im using the kernel that came with the rom (stock htc). And i get no option whatsoever

Re-flash the rom, sounds like the settings are messed up, under pc connection you should have multiple options when you connect your phone, check to see if any options exist. Did you flash the new firmware?

If you are S-OFF, yes. Take out the SD card, put it in another device that can read/write it, and copy another bootloader to the root of your SD card as PG86IMG.zip. Then put the SD card back in the phone, start the bootloader by pressing VolumeDown+Power, and confirm that you want the current bootloader to flash the new bootloader.

No, I believe the bootloader has to be unlocked because installing the superSU package requires modifying the system partition which can't be done with a locked bootloader.

Do you know a method to unlock while keeping all non-sd files , I dont mind if everything is formatted , but I'd be nice to keep them .

S- off roots without unlocking. As does zedomax. As does the HTC universal rooter.
Its gonna depend in your hboot

Yeah i was gonna say....im on 1.12 and also was soff with my 3D and 4g. Ive never used htc unlock system. Seems from what i have read its bs. Naturally i skip 90% about it because it doesnt apply to me but yeah im rooted and soff and i have never even been to the site much less done the process? I wouldnt have bought this device without s off. I waited a couple weeks after launch till they had it then i purchased it. They seem to have alot more available now than they once did but still an annoying unnecessary hassle i couldnt stand. This my 3rd rooted evo so you learn as you go. If it matters to you it wont happen to you again but for many it is irrelevant. The guys i feel bad for are replacement guys who by no fault of there on have no choice.

The problem you guys are having is that most dev and root users with experience 90% of the time do as i did and purchase there device when launched or close to it. When the evo 4g lte was launched most used the s off style of root and once achieved there was not alot of dev work towards doing it for the updated versions. Im sure its being tried but not many....that kinda thing is done the first week of the device. Hope you guys do find a method because it slows down dev process by spliting us.

I found how to root without unlocking , but that requires a previous firmware version , and I do not want to downgrade .

For the record, violating warranty by unlocking hboot is only an issue with HTC, Sprint doesn't really care

Its a known issue manually reboot the phone when regawmod says rebooting phone, or try running it with the phone in fastboot
I think it was because I was missing AndroidLib.DLL

It should be in local temp files, at least I think that's where the files get to. Most of the time rebooting manually gets it going

Well you can always download the adb mini SDK and sign up to HTC developers. It's a pretty painless process.
My sister asked me a question that I think is best left up to those that know, You all.
Is it possible to connect the phone to a PC to get the Internet on the phone? I guess I'm asking for reverse tethering, using the data connection from the computer, to go on line on the phone.
Sent from my HTCEVOV4G using Tapatalk 2
I think thats possible on official ota and sense roms...
If u connect the phone with an usb cable u should have Internet Pass through as option
It tells you that you have to check if you configured your network in the right way
Not quite sure what that means, but it worked perfect for me without doing anything at all

Could be a driver issue, or a problem with the USB port on your computer. You can install HTC Sync if you want to get the latest drivers on your computer.

Hi All,
Is there a way to s off my HTC 809d dual sim variant? It is a Chinese CDMA/GSM variant.
The fingerprint scanner was broken when I tried to root it with an App from the App Store. The hboot displayed "Tampered" at the first line. I even had not unlocked it through HTCDev!!!
I saw the thread written by @Punk9(here), he wrote the guide to re-enable the fingerprint scanner, he gives me the hope, although a Sprint variant.
Then I unlocked my phone, compiled a twrp recovery, flashed a unsecured boot, and rooted it. But the rumrunner for HTC One Max does not work, I have tried many times.
Can anyone provide me some helps or informations?
Thanks very much
BTW: The HBoot version is 2.47...

Use the UNIVERSAL rumrunner package.... The one you are using is most likely for the USA Verzion(it's a carrier) model.
