I have done some research as to how I would go about rooting this phone but I'm a little confused to say the least. Let me first say that I am on a mac and the first phone I rooted was Inspire. This was also the last phone I rooted because of how complicated it was. My main question is does unlocking the bootloader mean that the phone is rooted and I can just install a rom? If so how would I install a rom after unlocking the bootloader? Is there anything else I should be doing? As I said I'm very unsure how to go about this so any information is appreciated. Thanks.

No. All unlocking the bootloader does is remove security protection on certain partitions. After you unlock the bootloader, you need to flash a custom recovery from fastboot. Once you have a custom recovery, you can use it to either flash a rooted update.zip or a rooted custom rom.

As a person who bricked allot of phones learning, if you don't you don't understand how the process works or understand how to do it, I would leave your phone alone. The benefits you gain from rooting wouldn't benefit you much. If you skip a step or do something wrong you will end up with a nice paper weight. Not trying to discourage you, it is your phone after all.

It is really quite difficult to brick an HTC phone that doesn't have S-OFF. As long as the bootloader is there, there is always a path to restore the phone's functionality.

I'm hoping to find a step by step guide to walk me through exactly how I would go about this. For example I know I have to flash a rom but what rom should I be flashing? Now I know this is a matter of option but I guess I'm asking what has the least amount of bugs, best stability/battery life, etc. I know you need a kernel but is that something that gets installed when I flash a rom or does that need to be done separately. The main reason for doing this is customization, battery life and actually getting updates the os. Again any input is appreciated.

Maybe there is a tutorial in android dev. I'm not sure tho. The which rom is the best question is kinda frowned on here, i've seen mods close threads for it. It's just asking to start a flame war.
The kernel is also known as the boot.img. you will find it inside the rom.zip for any custom rom. Untill we have S-Off it cannot be flashed with the rest of the rom in recovery. You need to extract it and flash it from fastboot using the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img".

I apologize I wasn't trying to start anything. I just really don't have any idea as to which rom would suit my needs best so I was just looking for advice/opinions from people who are more knowledgeable then me.
Now you said I would need to extract the kernel, is the kernel in a zip file with the rom that after extracted I would both flash separately? I believe fastboot is the screen with the solid black background and the yellow text with options is that correct? "fastboot flash boot boot.img" is that a option I would select or is that a command I need enter? Sorry for all of the questions I just want to be clear on exactly what I need to do as I don't want to make my phone unusable.
I've been having interest issues so the only access I have is my phone. Hopefully it will be fixed in the next couple of days so I can check out the development section for a tutorial on rooting.
Again thanks everyone for the help so far.

This is a guide that hopefully makes things easier so you don't have to use Fastboot but instead use this app....all credit goes to joeykrim......
Searched everywhere and didn't see this info covered. So if this has already been stated, I'm a noob, and I apologize.......
So I found this app made by joeykrim a few days ago to be quite useful......Sadly my EVO 3D came out the box with HBoot 1.50 and my only option was to use HTC's Unlock Method....As you may know this method doesn't allow you to Flash custom kernels or roms with custom kernels baked in VIA recovery....the workaround was that you had to flash by using fastboot.......until now.....
So let's say your running your favorite sense rom, and decide that you wanna try out miui or cyanogenmod or vice versa.......normally you would need your computer to boot into fastboot, but thanks to joeykrims Flash Image GUI app you can flash the AOSP or Sense kernel, then the rom, and there you go....
1st Step: Download and Install this
http://www.google.com/m/url?ei=rS2b...UQFjAH&usg=AFQjCNHcnCXbd0CBHe3gdtDDbSG8eGuM2w
2nd Step: Download an AOSP Kernel if you moving from a sense rom to an AOSP rom.....Download a sense kernel if your moving from an AOSP rom to a sense rom and place it on your sdcard.
3rd Step: Open the app and select Kernel Image.
4th Step: Tap browse and navigate to the .zip that contains your kernel and select it......
5th Step: Tap Flash Image......Wait for it to finish flashing.....
6th Step: Reboot while holding Volume Down button.....
Final Step: Flash the rom that goes with your kernel.....if you just flashed an AOSP Kernel flash an AOSP rom, if you flashed a sense kernel then flash a sense rom......
Enjoy and i hope this was helpful..........

OK I don't have 1.5, I am lucky with 1.4 s-off. Thanks for posting this!
BUT, I have a nagging question, and am only asking because I don't entirely understand the unlock process for HTC, and the flashing thereafter.
I the s-off world, if you flash a ROM after a kernel, you din't keep the kernel, because the ROM has one in it. So my logic tells me that as stated in the OP when you flash the kernel first and then the ROM, the same thing would happen. I assume it's because if you flash a ROM on the go with 1.5, and not via fastboot boot recovery, it never writes the boot.img. SO in flashing the kernel first and then the ROM, it actually still holds the kernel flash? Right? Lol sorry, just curious.
Also, if this app bypasses boot security, has anybody tried a splash screen with it to see if it bypasses that too?
/superdupercurious
How do you update your su binary? Having problems will not open the flash gu

Lol it happens, get used to it.
Anyways on to the individual at hand.
What's your device info? Like hboot version, what android version were you on before trying to flash? ICS or GB?
Here's a basics run down on how to get things going again.
There's a stock ruu/ota thread in the dev section, grab the stock GB ruu for your device, put your phone into fastboot mode (check in the amaze bible thread how to do this), restore your device, if it's a zip file for your carrier, rename it to PH85IMG and place it on your sd card, reboot into bootloader and then hit volume up to restore the stock ruu.
If it's an exe file, put it into fastboot and run the exe file, follow all steps and restore the device.
Once done, update to ICS via the software update option available on your device under settings>about phone>software update
Once you're on ICS, flash a custom recovery via hasoon's tool, then reflash the rom you were trying to flash in the beginning.
Ask any further questions right here.

Seems stock, we need a screenie of the kernel and baseband version to tell you what firmware version you have although it looks like the ics ota.
Boot into bootloader by
1. Pull battery and replace
2. Hold volume down + power until hboot shows up
3. Look at s off/s on status, radio versions and if it says unlocked or tampered at the top.
Tampered means there is a custom recovery installed and probably rooted, this is good if you wanna flash a ROM.

Looks like you have the leaked global ics ruu firmware from mid 2012 and a rom based on it. Since you are still s-on, you may find it difficult to revert back to anything older (such as the official ics). The kernel looks to be the one included in the leaked ruu as well.
Hi mate,
Is that mean something? Bad or good maybe?
So the step is make it s-off, flashing the rom, and.... Am i right?
I dont get any trouble with thia phone. I just want to know are there any better setting than i have? If not maybe i'll stick with this one. (for battery and performance maybe)

2. Flash venom Rom. This is an ics Rom with zero bugs.
3. Flash the team bamf kernel (made by same developer) this kernel will increase your battery life by about 50%

S off might come off as confusing..
It's not necessary some kernels will flash via ph98img (the bootloader will search for this and ask you to install the update)
Joelz (maker of viperrez and bamf kernel) has implemented this in his rom and kernel.
If your s on, normally you would need a computer to flash the boot.img separately via fastboot commands (search more about using adb and fastboot)

You don't need to s-off. S-off makes flashing a ROM a little easier by automatically flashing the kernel afterwards, but as was mentioned, these days a lot of ROMs make the kernel file for you and the phone goes to hboot and you just accept the update and it flashes it for you.
s-off makes it easier to brick your phone. So it may be better to stay s-on until you get the hang of the Rezound way of doing things. I'm s-on and on the same global leak and I have no problem with it. The ROM I run, EclipticRez makes a PH98IMG file for the kernel so it's easy peasy.
So you are probably ready to flash a ROM. But I would check what recovery you have on there. Boot into bootloader as you did before then navigate to recovery. The two main ones used for the Rez are Amon Ra and TWRP. Amon Ra is currently at v3.16, I don't know about TWRP but you can find it in the Development section and find out. Then once you know you have the latest recovery you can flash a ROM. There should be instructions in the thread for how to flash the ROM and if you need the kernel separately the dev usually posts it for download, otherwise you have to pull it out of the ROM and flash it using fastboot.
Seems a lot to learn.
But, thank you guys.
I will keep searching the forum to find out more info before i decide to flash.
Thanks for al advices and nice to know you all here.

Lo.
I've found a lot of threads on this topic - the problem is they don't explain in detail (probably because everyone knows what they're doing, I'm not too into the whole custom thing).
Basically, I don't know where to start.
I'm running AOKP with the BLADE kernel, and although AOKP is lovely I encounter too many bugs. I'd like to revert to stock, but still be rooted of course.
Is there a detailed guide for this, that I've missed? I've bought my phone in Europe, so I suppose it's just the international version.
If anyone can point me in the right direction here, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thank you.
No one knows of anything?

Hi, you can either install the stock rom (ruu) or pick a rom that is based in the stock rom but without some things that makes battery life longer. i know you want to keep the root so i guess the second option would suits you best. although, i think flashing the stock rom and rooting again is kinda better, you know because of the kernel thing, well is your call mate. salute

I would recommend this. It's pretty much stock, but with optimizations and tweaks.
The RUU thing is way more difficult
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1987885
You can do a RUU and then root your phone with Hasoon's Toolkit.
For do a RUU, simpy relock your bootloader and run the "RUU.exe".
For root, follow the instructions in the toolkit thread.
Thanks and sorry for the late reply, apparently the app dpesn't notify me. What about the kernel I'm using?
And do I need to unroot my phone? I want to keep it rooted..
I like this rom but it's madly unstable unfortunately.

You can always use hasoon's tool to re-root the phone.
More difficult how? One person said it's simply one exe.
And from your experience, how stable is this rom. I'm getting a bit sick of camera, text, wifi crashes.

Here are the steps:
1. Re lock bootloader using toolkit.
2. Flash RUU
3. Unlock bootloader.
4. Root again.

Thank you, but I needed a stable rom before my holidays so I just took a chance on Android Revolution HD and whilst its working perfectly and Ive had absolutely no problems, I miss the simplicity and customization of AOKP.
Thank you all for replying though, hopefully it'll help someone out there.

that's because there is no RUU. Your hboot version too high.
If you bothered to spend the time learning rather than clogging up the forums with silly threads you would know that.

ok if there is no ruu its ok....but you can help me in this topic that why its cumming that (( this threats is for development purpose only)) i am not able to reset my phone or when i go to recovery this shows why it is like this whats the solution for this.
Your best bet is. If you still have that backup, boot into custom recovery and do a full wipe of your phone "System\data\cache\" (Not internal storage).
Then boot into fastboot and flash the boot.img from your backup.
Boot back into recovery and restore your backup. Then flash a stock recovery before you relock bootloader. Make sure you do it before you relock though.

from where will i get the stock recovery...
Lloir should of posted atleast one in one of his recovery threads. If not you'll need to extract it from an RUU. Any stock recovery meant for international devices will work for you. Ones for the AT&T device wont.
