I have been rooting and romming tablets for awhile now, but never have done a phone. I have a friend with a Sprint HTC EVO 3D with the ICS OTA. I have found this tutorial and wondering if this was the best way to root it. If there is a better way can you please direct me. All the specs on the guide is what is on his phone and also s=on. Also, I know roms are subjective so I probably shouldn't ask, but is there any one rom that stands out for being stable. The person I am doing this for does not have any experience and I don't want to be flashing roms for him and there are so many to choose from it is hard to decide what is the best route to go. I know that the one thing he does want to do is use his phone as a mobile wifi spot so any suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestiions.

You might find this guide very useful. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1889438
As for ROM. Moderator preference forbids us to tell you on which is the best, however I can tell you which ones you could try out. All of them are stable, fast and have lots of enhancement tweaks. You can try meanrom, cool sense, homebrew, and common sense. That's not all the sense ROMs but I figured I would give you somewhere to start. Try them all out and see which one you like best.Cheers

Thanks for the reply. I knew better than to ask about roms because in the tablet forum we are always telling people the same thing about it is to subjective and not a good topic to discuss. I do appreciate the response though since it gives me an idea where to start. I guess I need to ask the person who's phone it is what it is they are looking for, problem with that is I doubt he knows what he wants since he has never run anything but stock os.
Thanks again for the help....

This is the method I used and it worked very well, except I upgraded to 4ext recovery after the root process.... http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-3d-hacks/how-to-root-evo-3d-2-08-651-2-and-later-htc-unlock-method/
Then I gained S-OFF via wire trick http://unlimited.io/juopunutbear.htm

That's a very nice suggestion. However the link I provided already has links to unlimited.io's web page not to mention HTC dev unlock. Your not doing yourself any good repeating what I have suggested to other users without fully looking into everything that's on the posts first.
Now my migraine is full blown:crying:

I admit I was a little confused because it seemed I was reading the same thing. I still appreciate the help.
So, I have been reasonably experienced in the Android world with terms to Nexus devices and Samsung but HTC still confounds me. I have an S-Off Rezound, it is on GB Firmware and everytime I flash a ROM I have to flash a fix for old firmware or else is random reboots. I have searched and searched on different occasions for the answer to this but I have yet to find a straight answer. Feel free to flame me, be rude, etc., but can someone please point me in the right direction. My Fiancee loves her Rez, has been running sense 4.1 since we got it (it was s-off when we got it, a happy surprise from the seller we bought it from on eBay.) But she is weary of the extra steps she needs to take to update a ROM. Can anyone point us in the right direction?

RUU http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/
1st flash RUU(it will give you new firmware permanently)
2nd flash any rom with new firmware
Or ....
Download this
http://old.androidfilehost.com/main/-Support_Files-/SuperChilPil/[ICS][2.27][STOCK][8-12]PH98IMG.zip
but don't run it as a PH98IMG just yet, replace the hboot in it from this
http://old.androidfilehost.com/main/-Support_Files-/SuperChilPil/[ICS][2.25][STOCK][5-7]PH98IMG.zip
You will be soft-bricked until you flash a new rom/re-flash your current one.
Thanks guys, appreciate the info. She is going to run the RUU today and probably just go back to newts one xxx for global. She was getting tired fo forgetting to flash the "fix" everytime she updated.
You don't need to RUU if you're s-off, you can flash just the firmware, keep in mind you'll need to reverse the old firmware patch, that's available in the link below too..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614366
Global would be - [ICS][2.27][STOCK][8-12]PH98IMG.zip, follow the directions in the post to install it.
Back up your rom just to be safe but you should be ok just flashing the combo you want along with the "new" firmware patch.
EDIT - Just realized Snuzzo posted the same thing, it's linked from the XDA post above which has directions in it.
Hello android geniuses, any help would be great, all i want to do is get the stock Tmo 4.3 update and keep that way from here on out, please help me get back to stock TMO Recovery and and get the bootloader relocked, while also unrooting my phone. I just bought Nexus 5 and i decided i want to keep my TMO HTC One stock for the wifi calling. I have been n stock tmo 4.1.2 since the day i bought this phone and the only thing that have done to it is root it and unlocked the bootloader and flashed the CWM Recovery and have not done anything since.
Im currently S-On
HBOOT 1.44
radio: 4A.17.3250.20
and my recovoery is clockworkMod
so i havent done much to this phone at all and i cant flash the new update becuse of my recovery. any help in the right direction would be much appreciated.
is it even possible in my current state my phone is in?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358738
that link will give you all you need to know to be 100% stock again. it's for all variants of the HTC One (save for the Sprint and maybe Verizon versions, i think)
follow the directions to the letter and carefully, and it should be relatively easy! good luck
There are at least 10 threads dealing with the exact same question. Read up man.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Noticed that my phone did not take the OTA 4.3 update. I got to looking around and read some on converting HTC One to a Google Edition. Can someone help me understand the advantages of a GEdition phone as opposed to the ATT one? Too, is it a good ROM (I assume it will be a stock).
I'm really STUCK because I want to update my HTC One but I want to keep ROOT. I'm using Stock now, but I cannot seem to find a reliable ROM. Help help!
Thanks in advance!!

At first I really didn't like my ATT stock Sense ROM primarlily because of All that ATT crap-ware they had preinstalled.
I actually got Android 4.3 GE RUU for HTC one up and running....and...at first glance...it seemed really clean and nice! Didn't have any ATT stuff which was a big plus.
Hoping for a clean, stable, custom developer esque ROM........But I really am not a big superFan of Google for all my services...
(I use AdblockPlus on my MacbookAir, Windows XP Desktop at home, while checking my Yahoo email from my Mozilla Browser)
As of now, I ended up with Android_Revlotion HD-One_31.6 Stock ROM and have not changed for like almost a week from writing this feed.,
GPE is pure Android. If that's what you like, do it. I did it to one of my One's, and it was boring. I converted the other to the Developer Edition, and now I have Sense without all of the ATT goodness that they put on these phones. I really like it this way. Not hard to do either. You can get the Brightstar edition RUU from HTCDev. Then just make sure you either use BS__US001, or 11111111 as your CID, and relock bootloader. Since you are still on Hboot 1.44, I would certainly go S-Off before you do this, it makes it easier.
guys, so is it possible to transform my ATT HTC ONE to a GPE HTC ONE? Updates by google?

Yes, I did this and used it for about a month but I do like the sense features better.
1. Obtain S-OFF
2. Change CID to GOOGL001
3. Flash the Google Stock RUU which can be found on the XDA forums
4. Receive OTA updates.
If you need instructions to any of the steps above, google it.
i know its here somewhere but i have looked for 2 days for the stock rom for the at&t htc one. if someone could help me i would really apreciate it. also unrooted
Pretty much everything is in the roll up...

Don't forget you can get the RUU from HTCDev too. Last I checked it was the 4.1 or something and then it updates to 4.3.
