You can root but if you 're interested in jb roms u 'll have to downgrade the hboot
And its pretty easy to downgrade hboot once you achieve soff.

Many EVO 3D users S-Off their device but some like me didn't as 4EXT recovery is working nice on S-on users.
BUT
the only problem is newer baseband(radio) 11.77.3504.00P_11.25.3504.06_M is not installing in S-ON devices because it is not signed. So, anybody please help in installing this baseband for S-ON users. by signing it or by any other method.

You either need to get s off, or run an ruu with the latest radio.

i think you might need to relock the bootloader, before the ota.

No it works fine without relocking it. I was s-on as well wih onlocked bootloader. however after the OTA ics i got mine bootloader saying relocked.
Anyone would to suggest which rom suitable for htc evo 3d gsm s-on? I would be appreciate
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using xda premium
I'm CDMA, but I've heard Leedroid or Mwakious are excellent for GSM. I think they are Gingerbread, but ics tends to bootloop for many people who are s-on.
To unlock the full potential, I recommend s-off.
Sent from my ICS 3VO with Tapatalk 2
I'd say all the roms should work for s-on. Unless it requires a ICS firmware package, I don't think that you should have any trouble if you HTCdev unlock. Also, paranoidandroid and devil toast are pretty good.
Do the s off. Its easy and simple. Just read. The benefits outweigh the risks. Youll be a lot happier in the long run.
I also have a gsm s-on...You should go king cobra or mwakious
I am on mwakious...but 1st install v11 then upgrade !
Do click the thanks button !!
try PredatorUnityROM. its sense 4.0 so you will not have 3d but everything else works
Thanks alot guys for the info. But how i'm gonna change my s-on to s-off, sori i'm newbie .now i'm already flash predatorunity everthing greats but only 3d and wifi hotspot error.

What is you hboot? There are many ways to achieve s-off and its specific to your hboot
There is a sticky in the GSM development forum that might help:

Here's another tutorial you might find useful for S-Off. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248231
If you ask me, I am currently using TeamGenesis rom v4.2, with Anryls kernel 30.09, and everything works great. Not sure if everything would work on a s-on device, it would probably stuck on the white htc image, but you should be able to solve that with flashing the boot.img with adb fastboot.

I lost my root on the last OTA and since there are still no new method to re root on this new version might as well wait till the JB update. I think by Mid August / Sept we can see the new OTA to JB

There is a thread that I used after the OTA by xHausx that brought back r00t for me flawlessly, and I used HTC Dev to unlock the bootloader?

I almost tried this until I read the following ~ I wanted the fixes in the latest OTA:
"Successful in rooting all builds up to 1.13.651.1."
It works for 1.22. It unlocks your phone and installs twrp. You just have to flash chainfires 0.94 superuser to be fully rooted

Wait, this is getting confusing. We should always be able to unlock thru htcdev on this phone no matter the firmware update. Achieving S-OFF is not yet possible on hboot 1.15, so, that's what some of us are hoping to have...

Yes, S-OFF on hboot 1.15 is a work-in-progress, perhaps with a future Lazy Panda exploit.
I believe the original user's requirement was root and unlocked on the current OTA.
These are HTC phones. You can always use HTC dev as a last resort. We will always have root.
Also, don't accept otas if your rooted or ever plan on rooting.

What do you get from being s-off? I'm htc dev unlock with s on and I've been able to run every rom with no problem and able to update my radio?

Believe that s-on with the new hboot restricts u as to what is flashable, ie kernels, splash screens, radios. Whereas the old hboot does not. Why some of us are waiting for s-off on current ota/hboot.

I am on Jelly bean , Running Meanbean Rom, But I am S-ON and the Racoon method does not support my WIN8 laptop, Then LiveCD Ubuntu is a bit complicated for me. So is there another way of achieving S-off ?
Currently, no.

Downgrade method then use no-longer-supported LazyPanda to obtain S-OFF hboot 1.12. You'll also retain S-OFF status indefinitely (confirmed as of Jelly Bean hboot 2.09). I don't know if Racoon is the same way.

Hello,
I have a EVO 3D shooter-u with H-BOOT 1.53.0007 and S-on with ics.
My motherboard was replaced so I Can't unlock the bootloader the HTCdev way...
The revoolutionary tool doesnt support my hboot.
What is the other way to do it?
Can I install gingerbread or something to get an older Hboot?
By the way I want to install this rom in the end:

Or can you suggest a good stable fast one with 3d support?
Try Sensai ROM 3.5.0 ,it's the best ROM with working 3d cam/rec and it's with sense 4.1

Im running yas4 now.
The best thing you can do is to get s-off and downgrade to hboot 1.49.007 after this you can flash anything without crashes
