Hello my fellow xda friends
I have an EVO 3d with s-off already. In the instructions on how to root, do I skip the how to s-off part or is there another way to root an EVO 3d that already has s-off?
I have: EVO 3d sprint
Shooter xc ship s-off rl
Hboot 1.58.0000
Stock recovery
What happens when you goto recovery.
Once you have a custom recovery, ie 4ext, you can backup, wipe and flash

It goes to the stock recovery.
Install a custom recovery and get to flashing

Yes!
I was coming from 3-4 yrs exclusive Motorola Androids.
So I didn't understand that once Bootloader was unlocked. There was no rooting procedure.
The next step installing a custom recovery makes this Evo 3D (maybe all newer HTCs) rooted.

turn s-on with the fastboot command
relock your bootloader
download the stock rom from your provider ,rename it PG86IMG.zip and copy it to your sd card then boot into your boot loader... it should start updating to the stock rom then

it's been a while since ive installed mean rom, but are you s on or s off
usually you want to wipe system data and dalvik cache before you flash
also make sure you're on a supported firmware. flashing is easier on sense roms
Its s on n the vid didnt say to wipe anything before I flashed it n my hboot is 1.58 im trying to unroot it now but its taking forever to download the factory restore which I locked it back now just to restore to the factory settings I also ics on it to before I flashed it I wonder if thats a problem as well

What recovery are you using?

Did you flash the boot.img in fastboot? You need to do that with s-on.
use 4EXT recovery as it has the smartflash option. saves you the trouble of flashing boot.img.
what i would really recommend is getting s-off. Check out this great guide by ramjet73

You need to get back into recovery so you can restore a backup or a rom, If you are S-ON like me you will have problems with CWM, you need to use 4EXT recovery, the "smart flash" options works very well on S-ON devices
i have the htc evo 3D with s-off and 1.40 hboot with cyanogenmod 10.1
my phone will work for like a minute then shutdown and reboot i tried installing the roms again but every rom will reboot.
my wifi wont work also but my 3G works fine and so does Bluetooth (it turns on)
things i tried
1.re flashing
2.new rom
3.wipe data
4.wipe cache+dalvik

Flash a different recovery like twrp or 4ext. Google it if you don't know how to do.

Make sure you are doing a full wipe before flash, boot, system, data, cache, dalvik

its not a bootloop by the way i can actually use my phone for like 10 minutes
i have 4ext
Are you using a special kernel? Overclocking? Also are you 100 percent sure you're s-off? Wi-Fi not working is kind of classic incorrect kernel flash. Try enabling smart flash in 4ext and see what that does.

I'm s-off I know I am
What kernal do you think I should use?

If you're s-off, I would find the ruu.exe and return to stock to see if it has the same issues. If it does, it may be a hardware problem.

My phone started acting wierd, so I reset it to factory and now I can't install any ROMS at all!
I had/have S-OFF but somehow I locked myself.

I've tried renaming the downloads to PG86IMG.ZIP but all it does is gives me a progress bar, parses and then goes back to the fastboot menu.
I've tried to install clockworkmod and twrp but since I don't have superuser, it won't work.
I tried pushing through adb and fastboot but no write access.
I'd like to put carbon jellybean on it.
I know I"m missing a step here somewhere. But what is it?
You wont be able to flash custom roms on fastboot and u cant flash recovery because ur bootloader is locked you kust somehow reflash the bootloader or get it unlocked.
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using xda app-developers app
OK. I think I understand. I just don't understand how I locked myself and why it is so difficult to unlock when I was unlocked before.
I'm going tyhrough the [email protected] and waiting for my bin file. Hopefully it will come soon.
Once I go through that process, what's next? How do I install either twrp or clockworkmod as I don't have SU?
Well u probably flashed an ics ruu which had bootloader update in it so it locked it. U can flash recovery.img trough adb .

If i helped, press thanks
Thanks
I know just enough to be dangerous.
Any idea how long it takes to get this .bin file from the htcdevelopers ?
Once I use that file, then I can what? Just rename CARBON-JB-UNOFFICIAL-20130513-143602-shooteru.zip to PG86IMG.zip in the root of my SD card and then it will work? Or do I have to do something else? If so, what? It's late and I'm getting foggy. Wanted to get this up and running for morning use.

You are wrong. I have also LOCKED BOOTLOADER and S-OFF. I can flash anything. Even, 4ext recovery is flashed in my evo3d. As you are S-OFF, you can rw anything

Did you try formating all partitions except sd card? Also wipe everything twice, just to be on the safe side

please anyone help us
I don't have gsm.
Maybe you need hboot 1.5* that was on your other phone.
Smartflash is for s on
I would recommend using 4ext though
I would suggest changing your hboot
Reboot to recovery
Wipe all partitions except sd
Reboot recovery
Wipe all partitions again
Flash Rom
Reboot
If it still boot loops,
Then fastboot flash boot boot.IMG
Good luck

I managed to make my phone ok again,using a ruu. I think this is the best chance, relock if you are s-on unlocked,flash the ruu via fastboot,and the just use the htc unlock method to gain unlock bootloader and root... It was a log operation...it takes a lot of time ..but well, it worth it. My phone is now ok. You could give this a try. Search the forum on how to revert back to stock rom using a ruu.
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using xda app-developers app
There is no need to relock, and get s on.
You can run ruu through bootloader as a pg86img.zip, and retain s off.
That will give you all stock, but s off
However you need to get the Rom.zip from ruu and rename it first

so i updated the hboot to 1.5 and tried to flash the custom rom :c didnt work :/ still on bootloop and i tried to flash the boot.img and still nothing :/
Have you tried other roms?
Or restoring a backup?
Maybe you should go ahead and run the ruu.
I do not have gsm, but I'm sure its the same process of flashing.

Alright then, RUU, re-unlock (& s-off), and flash a custom ROM.
if you can't fix your problem, the RUU will, and allow you to start fresh. S-off is the best way to go.
