are you sure
because i was able to root my sony xperia tipo which runs on android 4.0.4
i think it could also handle android 4.0.3 also

Nothing is simple. If you want to learn adb, try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1894717. But read read read. It looks like it needs to be attempted many times. I dont think youll do this if youre not feeling very brave.

i use this software first but i stop on download 22% and after 3 hours it still remain on 22%
thks u also to post ur suggestion on my thread

can any of u help me to put this"CyanogenMod 10.1 - Android 4.2.1 - Jellybean " rom in my htc evo 3d v4.0.3 with hboot 1.53.0007

Now im intrigued. Fastboot oem unlock on htc? or via htcdev? You need a custom recovery for your device : http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager, then youll be able to flash the rom, not forgetting a factory reset and cache wipes. My suggestion? Since you're first post was about not wanting a brick, read read read. The sooner you jump into flashing with less background info, the more likely it is that youll end up having issues. But im glad you found a popular rom youd like..

Thks

[Q] White HTC Evo 3D, is it any different?

Alright, so I have the White(Radioshack only) HTC Evo 3D.
I've tried everything that's out there to root/unlock/downgrade 1.5 -> 1.4
Nothing is working, so my biggest question is <insert title name here>.
I don't mean to be a huge NOOB. But seriously, is it different? I can't manage to do..well..anything at this point, I absolutely LOATHE the stock rom on here, and can't find any way to get away from it.
Any help would be lovely!
PS: I would have posted in development, and just asked for help rooting my phone here, but I can't as I'm a newbie on these forums.

When I tried that, when I went into "recovery" with vol down + power it said that I can't use that image. It said something about my version being older, when its not.
That means you need to update to a newer version and sence we are on that subject what version are you running

If you don't mind me asking, update for what?
You most likely have to download the full 2.17 RUU so that it will "upgrade" your phone before you can "downgrade" it.

(take out the space)
Ok I found it on football dev section but this will require you to dowload the ruu which contain the hboot 1.4 now you will at need your bootloader unlocked to do this or do you have that done already ? So I present to you the ruu that will downgrade your hboot to 1.4 don't download this to EVO you have to download it to your pc or laptop and put the EVO in bootloader and then connect the USB cable and press power to turn on your fastboot next on your pc or laptop execute the program and it will run I've done this on my EVO and let me tell you the program is slow butt it works so here you go http://www.filefactory.com/file/c19...216_NV_NV_spcs_1.42_release_233304_signed.exe

Alright, I'm running it now, and I'm at a black "HTC" screen and the program ran into an error: (Error 171, USB connection error).
Edit: Yup, it's not flashing.
Did u enable usb debugging in android's settings?
Overall I'm confused about a few things.
What is your detailed hw & sw versions:
- hboot:
- locked/unlocked:
- s-on/s-off:
- Fw: 2.17.651.5 etc?
- Radio:
What do u actually want... HTC Unlock or hboot downgrade with s-off?
U said u tried everything, but didn't link any threads or files that u used, so we can't be sure what u actually did.
(havent seen u post in any of the xda threads u should be following. I coulda missed it. U did say ur post count was low).
U didn't indicate if u read the hboot 1.50 guide in my signature.

I was just trying to unlock the bootloader and install a custom rom.
I eventually figured it out, but not anything that I tried worked, and then it did by just trying over and again. Not sure what else to really say.
I was hboot 1.5 locked s-on and everything was stock. No "cracks" would work, until I "brute forced it."

[Q] I dont even know what to call it

ok so, I'm having problems loading the Newt One S rom because like a dumb ass I used my flash image GUI to flash ICS cleanrom and I wasn't supposed to because I'm HBOOT 1.5 S on not S off so I'm trying to flash One S and it's like trying to boot up but it stays stuck on htc One splash screen. I think I just need a kernel so, I can get this working again. please help thanks in advance. I wanted to do the downgrade from 1.5 to 1.4 but I'm new to this and don't want to a chance and really screw things up. I'm pretty sure a kernel would fix my issue imo. your advice is appreciated.
Well for starters the gui app is designed for s on devices because if your s on you can flash kernels from recovery so your first step was to pay a visit to HTC dev and unlock your boatloader first and then you will need to install a custom recovery and then the Su file's this will give you root check the dev section pertaining to your device and read up or you will most definitely brick

Your doing it all wrong,
1. Unlimited.io doesn't support windows any longer there fore you took the risk of using it and soft bricking your phone
2.it is the wrong software your using I think an older version as well latest was 0.8 (not sure bout the version) anyhow your supposed to use the GB version NOT the ICS one
3. Sadly only through S-OFF n supercid you can upgrade it to ICS
overall you need to read more before playing with your phone cuz I know you don't want to brick your phone cheers
