Hi Guys,
I just got my EVO 3d Today. Am really excited needless to say.
Ive managed to unlock the boot loader using the official HTC Bootloader unlock tool(Since my software version was 1.20). Now it says unlocked but still has "S ON". Been going crazy for hours now trying to root it. Even tried going into recovery but just get an error symbol.
Would appericiate if anyone can tell me how to go about it or point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance.

easiest way to fix it is to download the stock root 2.3.3 in the devolpement thread and it will give u root after u flash it mape sure u data/wipe and dalvik wipe its in advanced if u need anymore help just pm me
edit: if it still says s-on the go to development thread got to rom guides and use the revolutionary tool to get s-off and root its really easy to do

Thanks for the input. The problem is that i can't go into recovery. Every time i try i get a Red Triangle with an !.
I have ONLY used the HTC Dev unlock method and nothing else. Do i need to do/install something more in order to go into recovery?
Just use the revolutionary tool to get s-off and root it would be your best bet now i was helping a friend do it the other day and he. Messed but i have a fix if after u do it u get s-off but not root if u need me to help u will going through doing I can but u will have to wait a few hour I am about to go to. Bed u can pm me or hit me up on g+ because my link is in my signature
I shot the maid! What can I say? 3vo shooter
Oh and i can't use revolution because my software number is 1.20.401.2 (When i click on check for updates it says device is up to date) and revolution is only compatible with 1.30.0000 and 1.40.0000
Are u on 2.3.4 or is ur 3vo a gsm phone?

Yes i am on 2.3.4 and my evo3d is a gsm phone.
Totally lost here.
Umm... you need to flash a recovery through fast boot...the red triangle means you don't have one... also if you are unlocked push su through adb and you should have root. I never used HTC official unlock but have rooted several phones... after you unlock the bootloader you push su and flash a recovery

from my understanding, once you use the htc unlock method you can't get s-off for now, until theres an exploit found. I followed a vid on htcevohacks.com and got mine rooted using 2.3.4 but I stil have s-on... not sure if it even matters because i can still go into recovery and flash roms.

Unfortunately its for software number 2.08.651.2 and above. Im on 1.20.401.2. Even when i click on check for updates it says device is up to date.
So basically this method can't work for me .
Guys issue resolved. Even though my device was initially unlocked using HTC Official unlock method i just ran revolution, followed the steps and now I'm unlocked AND rooted by revolution. Just wanted to share that.
Thanks for all the help people.

Thanks
Hi there, i have managed to unlock my Evo 3D via HTCDEV.com just fine. I am running HBOOT 1.49.0018 and what i would like to know is what is my next step? Do i use Htc Supertool v3 next for something? Or do i try to install a rom? If i have to install a rom could someone please give me a few pointers please as i am reading a lot of different thoughts on the whole rooting process. I have had some valuable info from a few 'seasoned' and very knowledgeable forum members, but i am unsure of the following steps........i amazed myself that i managed to unlock it to tell you the truth lol ;-)...........a big thanks for any help offered.
What do you want to do, seems a legit question?
I unlocked the bootloader to root the stock ROM, so I can use certain applications.
I don't flash other ROMS, because the only ROM i'd flash would be a fully functional MIUI or AOSP ROM, which unfortunately aren't available.

Yes, the HTCDev method erases all data.
thank you for the reply.
to lazy a the moment to redo all !
@KrewsialNL Yes you are right bud, I should have made my intentions a little more clear. What I want to do is unrestrict my handset enabling me to use the DLNA functions etc, and just give me a little more flexibility with various roms and mods. As I said in my previous post, all I have managed to do is unlock via HTCDEV.com, and I am unsure of my next steps and the programs/software downloads required to get me there. Hope this info answers your question bud.
Could someone please help me with advice on my next step...............Thanks

Yes you still have to root. All the unlocked bootloader does is make it easier to install custom recovery and roms. Hope that helps

With the unlocked bootloader you can just flash custom recoveries and kernels.
For running root access apps you require a rooted phone too.
