Busybox or rom without kernel installation? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I have just unlocked and rooted and now want to try rumrunner for S-OFF but I am having a ridiculous time trying to get busybox installed. I keep installing stock roms in hopes to get busybox installed but they all seem to want to install a kernel which sends my phone into a bootloop even though they say they are stock kernel roms. Does anybody know how I can get busybox on stock without having to do this or can recommend a rom to me that doesent install a kernel for S-ON? HBOOT 2.009 , version 3.17, TWRP 2.6.3.0 just for reference.

Rooted with zedomax how to ota?

I am stock, locked, s-on, and rooted with zedomax one click so i could use wifi teather and titanium backup. How can I apply the ota and still keep root? If that's not possible what do you recommend?
Are u using a custom Rom? If you are then wait for one of the Rom developers to incorporate the latest ota.

Noob here don't know how. I thought I couldn't flash any Roms with zedomax one click root method and locked s on. Detailed instructions would be greatly appreciated.
Can someone be straight up with me and tell me why no one has answered my question?
no one will give you a straight answer because what you want to do is kinda not recommended on any device.
general rule of thumb is not to ota after root. so what you should do is get s-off using lazypanda which allows for flashing of custom roms and such and follow my guide that is in my signature to make sure that it goes smoothly (but ignore the part of flashing fresh rom, you can do it on stock with just root) then once you achieve s-off you can either stay stock and wait for a rooted version of the newest update for you to flash through twrp or you can flash any other rom (i run flex 360's rom, i find it the smoothest rom ive tried) and then just flash the radios from the newest update which will give you all of the 3g improvements (which is basically all you need, you can flash roms based off of the newest update at a later time)
if you need any further help feel free to pm me at any time and i will help you out
edit: also, after re-reading your original post, there is no way to keep root after ota so if you accept it you will have to wait for another root exploit which may take a while.
Can you give us new guys a step by step instructions for installing the new ota update> I have stock rom phone rooted with TWRP. Do we need to do a factory reset and clear the Cache, Dalvic Cache and System or can we just install the Odexed zip?
He can't flash a Rom guys, he can't get a custom recovery.
Op, get s-off first and the. Get your recovery and flash a romt

[Q] Bootloop S-ON HBOOT-1.53.0007

Hello,
i hope someone out there can help me with my problem.
i was trying to flash a custom rom on my evo 3d. i made a few steps threw a few tutorials and the htcdev.com site.
after all that i flashed CyanogenMod 9 on my evo3d via 4EXT. after rebooting i stook in bootloop.
i tried to flash a few other roms like KingCobra, but it did not work at all. i really dont know what to do now.
i also tried to flash other boot images, which did not work too.
my bootloader is unlocked and i got S-ON HBOOT-1.53.0007. at the moment there is no working rom on my device.
i can only work with the bootloader and 4ext.
i hope someone can help me flashing a rom (meanwhile it doesnt matter any more which one) on my htc so i can use it again.
sorry for my english.
Sincerely
Have you tried a stock, rooted Rom?

not yet... every stock, rooted rom i find in this forum/in other forums is just for S-OFF devices. i would need it for S-ON on evo 3d gsm... u know where i can get one?
i solved the problem by installing kingcobra 1.6 and flashing the kernel in the instruction via adb.
Good. Now that your phone boots, I recommend you s-off. It allows you to flash ROMs without a separate kernel flash. You can also downgrade your hboot which is needed to flash some ROMs.

Thank you for the quick reply, but i don't really understand which ROM should i flash. Can i just factory reset? and do the OTA?
Chainfire is not supported on our evos, you will soft brick every time. You have to flash a new Rom. Either flash a Rom and kernel separately or flash a Rom with kernel installer like meanrom

om4, thank you for the reply. I've read your Dont' Panic thread, would it be possible to flash the boot.img alone? can i flash with the latest RUU ? or is there a latest stock ROM available, because i only get from search is the previous stock ROM
2.13 stock deodexed with root

Thank you very much om4, the link in OP thread is dead but i can manage to find Captain_Throwback link.Do i need to relock the bootloader? and I still need to flash the kernel after i flash it with the deodex stock right?
If i decide to go with the mean rom, should i re-lock the bootlader or just straight flashing the rom after clean wipe and factory reset?
If you flash meanrom you don't need to relock bootloader. Only relock the bootloader if you are getting ready to flash ruu or if you are trying to accept an ota. To accept an ota you would need a stock Rom and recovery before relocking bootloader

You probably updated to 3.16. Captain_Throwback posted a solution over on this thread. Read the last couple pages.

It does have a touchscreen fix, but it fails at installing roms that use the boot.img script to load the kernel for people with s-on. They need to fix twrp or the rom developers need to update the script.

Captain_Throwback has posted two Stock rooted roms that will flash with no problems in the threads I linked to earlier. Hopefully other Roms will be updated with the script soon.
I am S-ON and was on 3.15. I relocked & took the 3.16 OTA a few days ago. A few hours ago I unlocked, fastboot flashed TWRP 2.4.1.0 then TWRP flashed SU and Viper 3.0.1 (not a new base ROM) and had zero problems with any of those operations.

Yeah, just unlock your bootloader and flash a custom recovery. I recommend TWRP since it's more touch orientated (designed better) than ClockworkMod. Then download a ROM and follow instructions.
For those that have flashed Int. ROMs and have TWRP, did you use dumlock or flash the boot.img in fastboot? If anyone has used dumlock, can you write up how you used to get a good flash? I am coming from Sammy, so all of this is very new to me and I am trying to learn as much as I can. Thanks.

I didn't use twrp I used CWM. The kernel for Renovate installed in that recovery.

So you just flashed in recovery like normal? Nothing else?
This phone is super confusing, keep reading about flashing a boot.img before flashing a ROM or using dumlock. Can not find a straight answer to what I need to do to go from rooted stock to a ROM.

As usual HTC left off some security on the released version of this phone's HBOOT.
The One X on AT&T was like this too when it first came out. We could even flash RADIOS on that thing.
I am pretty sure the discovery that you can flash boot.img from recovery is pretty new.
