Hi XDA-Devs,
Background (optional read):
I am not a terribly experienced Android user. I've had the Rogers HTC EVO 3D since Sept 2011, and I've successfully flashed it with three different ROMs over that period - (1) Cool Sense, (2) KingCobra 1.2 ICS and (3) King Cobra 1.5 ICS. None of these ROMs required my phone to be S-OFF.
Current problem:
Now I am interested in upgrading to a JellyBean ROM. Specifically, CM 10.2. I chose it because it looks like the most stable and frequently updated Android 4.3 ROM. The problem is that this ROM required my phone to be S-OFF. So that's where I need help from you kind people.
Current question:
Does anyone have experience changing a S-ON Rogers HTC EVO 3D with HBOOT-1.49.0008 to S-OFF? I may be incorrect, but from what I understand I will need to downgrade to HBOOT-1.49.0007 before I can switch to S-OFF, and this downgrade will void my warranty (w/e) and potentially brick my phone crying.
Can anyone help me out?
tl;dr: need someone to walk me through switching my S-ON Rogers HTC EVO 3D with HBOOT-1.49.0008 to S-OFF
Thanks!!
Regards,
Tiffiter

1 just flash a new rom just stay with your gsm or cdma
2 look in the gsm area think you can do it
3 hboot 1.5 is cdma and you dont want to get it
4 lots cdma is mostly sprint ( i think) gsm is used in outher places just stick to the one you are on or bad things can happen (ok??)
5 i dont have a idea but i hope i helped some and i think my info is right but someone may be smarter than me lol
Sounds like your phone is gsm. Look in the gsm dev section for everything you need. Hboot 1.5 is a cdma hboot, so its not for your phone. All the info you need is here....search and read ....a lot.
We're comin from a pure power source.
Well first off all, I think the majority off the HTC Evo 3D are people from the USA so most people have the CDMA version, however Eurasia uses GSM and not CDMA so you need check in the GSM section for roms.
Downgrading your hboot you can do with this guide.

Hboot 1.50 is for CDMA, you will have no trpuble downgrading you can S-off it.

I bought a HTC Evo View 4g online (used) and when I got it the device was already rooted with revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4. When I booted into the bootloader this is what the information read:

My question (and i apologize for the very noob question) is can I flash a JellyBean ROM such as Evervolv from this state? I use an HTC amaze as my main phone, but for some reason this particular device is a bit confusing to me probably since I didn't go through the process of rooting it myself. Thanks in advance for any assistance.
If you unlocked you bootloader, then S-Off, have CWM installed, you're good to go! Good luck
just make sure you are not flashing a honeycomb or Jelly bean rom on a ginerbread hboot or vice versa
I am trying to root and achieve s-off on a sprint htc evo design. I have an unlocked bootloader per htc dev, and this is the phone I have:
Sprint HTC EVO DESIGN 4G
ANDROID VERSION 4.0.3
HTC SENSE VERSION 3.6
SOFTWARE VERSION 3.14.651.0 710RD
BOOTLOADER:
*** UNLOCKED ***
KINGDOM PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.30.0000
I have previously rooted an htc evo 4g and achieved s-off, I use Amon-ra recovery on that phone and was wondering if I was stuck with cwm recovery for the htc evo design. Additionally is it possible to achieve s-off on the htc evo design? There is just not a lot of support for this phone and I am not sure all of what is universal for android or htc phones. Thanks for the help in advance.
Hello everyone, I own Evo 3D some months and I am on hboot: 1.53.0007 ~~ Baseband version: 11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M ~~ HTC unlocked and S-ON. I want to do the wire trick from Unlimited.IO but I got the MIUI 3.2.8 (4.0.3 android). My phone is vodafone branded and I can't run RUU's to get stock.
My question is: which rom should I run to be able to work on JuopunutBear?? Thanks in advance.

Just try if controlbear works like described on unlimited.io site.
If it leads you to the point where you should do the wire trick, then it should be OK.
If it shows error you probably need the stock rom for your phone as a flashable zip.
Hello, i want to reuse my old Evo 3D GSM.
What is the best costum rom that I can install and that has install instructions. Looks like that HTC realy wants you to brick you phone, this HBOOT, s-on, off, radio version, etc... is a big nonsence.
I recovered my phone with RUU, after bricking it while installing CM11
Info:

Stock recovery that doesn't work.
Android ICS 4.0.3
I don't need 3d camera.
EVO is a great phone, less laggy than any other Android phone i've had seen, so I would like to reuse it.
Thank you for your help.
Agree
I agree with you. I also need custom rom that works on my htc. So far i found three threads that i was interested to download. Badly, those links they provided were dead. I hope there is someone who is kindly enough to give us enlightenment.
Yeah I've found 1 ROM that works negalite blurom. I'd really like to try out some others tho.
