Certainly hope so of course. When is 'tonight'?! Suspension. Killing. me! Arrrg!
Let it be root!
Root for the 3D because no one cares about the 4g anymore? Yup.
Disclaimer: I care about the Evo 4g, it just seems like it's being abandoned.

Its certainly not going to be OG Evo oriented. That much is clear. However, progress is progress. These guys were talking about a universal bootloader unlocker. This could be it. If not, its root for 3d/sensation. Now they focus on OG Evo.

Maybe something like an updated UnrEVOked3 or Gingerbreak?
The only option we have is to hope. and with unrevoked backing it. we have a possiblity of it being for us.
I'm very hopeful that this is going to be a universal root. But the pessimist in me is prepared for disappointment.
Well, considering the dinc2 has the same gingerbreak exploit patched may be universal

who cares about the stupid 3d? one can only hope permaroot is done so they move on to the phones that most of us still have lol
I'm probably wrong but I thought I read that the 3D and the OG Evo use the same bootloader. If that's true than wouldn't root for the 3D mean root for the Evo?

if its the same bootloader wouldn't that mean that even if we root we can't get s-off until (if) they unencrypt it? I never heard them say they were going to do our phone just the sensation and the 3d

what i do know is they said the exploit they found would work across all bootloaders with some tweaking, that said however, the 3d is a lot more locked down than the evo is, and i believe the current temp root for 3d doesnt work for the OG evo because they work differently , even though they use the same or similar bootloaders, i could be getting some of it wrong but u get the jist of it

Did the official update and wanna go back to 1.5 so i can root is it possible...can i root right from 2.1??? this definitely was the worst thing ever. If anyone can help, please do!
Short answer...your screwed......should have done some research before flashing the RUU. It can't be rooted at this time so no way to go back....
Research would have shown you there are a number of 2.1 ROM's that are out and working....

Dont be suprised if you dont see root for at least 6 months. Come june 4th everyone's attention will be focused on the HTC Evo and most users will be in the Evo forums and researching Evo and Watching youtube videos on the EVO's performance. All i can say is make do with what you got until the evo dies down and focus on the hero will continue as normal.

Hey guys I'm coming from the HTC inspire to HTC evo. Over at the inspire forums they have a super one click option to take s off and root the device it was very simple with video instructions as well. What's the easiest way you guys have here to root the evo? I was looking at a thread but it has about 50 steps any other way around that? Is there a super one click option?
unfortunately... those of us with the OTA update are stuck with rootless EVO's...
the fortunate users had previously rooted their phones with a drag and drop i believe... (don't take my word on that, i joined the root sensation a little late... hence my rootless phone) but i think it was like 5 steps er so... it didn't look too bad and it was even easier for you if your on a linux platformed pc with unrevoked er sumthing like that...
either way the EVO is an outstanding phone and i stand by it, until something better comes out... (not the nexus s)

so you guys don't have a way to go back to stock not even with h boot? That sucks man. I'll probably stay with the inspire for now. HTC sense comes with stock 2.3 and they got "s" off already according to HTC clay on twitter I hope soon some dev will root the new evo with 2.3

I dont get that either. Im half tempted that if something does not happen within a week or two (due to my 30 days) taking back my evo for a samsung. I know the developers are working on a solution, but i cant go without wireless tether now that i have my tab back. This is frustrating.

perhaps, because the evo4g is an old phone near it's EOL, regardless of how you look at it? these devs have moved on to newer and better phones. why would you expect them to still take care of a phone that's well over a year old?

don't count the OG developers out just yet.
You know what. I don'tget this at all. They started unrEVOked for the Evo 4g. But the suprising thing is that they still support the desire and aria. If it doesn't come out, we should try looking in the code for the desire or aria roots to seeif we can use any of that for the evo.
I am unrooted now because sprint tried to force me to buy the evo 3d for the full 500 dollar price, so I have to wait til april to upgrade (but I'm waithing for kal-el processors.
I believe the exploit they have found isn't available on our phone. If that's the case its an exploit only in sense 2.1+. Please feel free to correct me if i'm wrong.

Dont be sad guys im sure the evo will get root soon. Yes alot of devs jumped ship to 3D but theres still plenty great devs that are using their evo 4G's. They had root a while back for the 3D but couldnt release it just yet because it could potentially show htc how they found root or what exploit they found and htc would patch it. I dont know who's trying to root the latest gb on evo but im sure someone is doing it...Now just gotta find an exploit in gb to take advantage of to unlock 2.3.

from root wiki:
Will you release the source code?
At this time, we are not disclosing the vulnerability we have exploited.
That doesn't seem fair! Android is about open source.
In some senses, we agree; but at times, a tradeoff needs to be made. Releasing the source code for this, we believe, would compromise the greater ability to unlock devices like these in the future. Given the choice between sacrificing the liberty of running code on our handsets and the liberty of reading the code by which we unlock it, we feel that the millions of handsets are more important. It is unfortunate that we must make such a choice, and we look forward to the day in the future that no such decision need be made.
ie progress for OG EVO?
I love my rooted evo. I cant see myself going back to stock ever
seems like root is almost coming
Well if root is coming soon it would be nice to hear from a dev. like its coming , hold on, soon, working on it or something please.. p.s. don't leave the OG in the back of the bus..lol

They will not be shipped unlocked, but rather you have to register up with HTC to use their tool to unlock it, or not void you warranty as far as Sprint knows by using the AlphaRevX's Revolutionary bootloader unlock tool.

Currently the only available way is the revolutionary.io way. There are guides in the Android Development section for the 3D that gives you step by step help with obtaining S-OFF then root. Also when flashing your first recovery image I recommend the hboot flashed TWRP recovery, as you get more options. Basically the steps are 1) Obtain S-OFF 2) Flash a recovery 3) Flash superuser zip to obtain root 4) Reboot and enjoy your new rooted Evo 3D. After that it is up to you what you want to do.
I can't wait to get my 3D, but currently any money I have is going towards buying my college supplies so my father says I'll get mine in Sep possibly. So I'll see you then!

I very much recommend that you DO NOT take the new OTA on your Evo 3D when you get it. THE OTA PATCHES THE ROOT AND S-OFF PROCEDURES. So when you get your phone, confirm you have an hboot under 1.5 and also that you are on Android 2.3.3 not 2.3.4. If you are 2.3.4, you can't get root right now. My brother just got the OTA and I've been reading around and heard it breaks root and root procedures.

Do you know if its Possible to Root the 3D Without actually Activating it? In other words Sprints sending it to me in the mail, so is it Possible to Root it Before Activation, and then Still Activate it by Phone?
I don't see why not. The root doesn't break any of the core installation and activation files.

but honestly no real need to make a new thread about it

We all feel your pain . Guess it's going to be a minute before your able to do anything for the community . Dammm you HTC .
you could always try a different Launcher so that it will look different...
If you're lookin for a sense 3.0 like lockescreen try Agile Lock from the market, been using it on my evo for a week or so and loving it. In order to get all the functionality out of it you'll have to download 4 or 5 apps from within the agile lock app. They're all in Japenese or Chinese, can't read either so not sure which language it actually is, but just download and install them then you can delete them. Once the app is unlocked it functions almost just like the 3.0 lockscreen.

I didn't care if anyone responded. Sorry for eating valuable forum space in the shift forum. When root comes back around, this thread will be pointless. Feel free to delete it. But the other person was right. This is the gloom thread. No root for the old hags phone makes me sad. If jock itch makes you sad, tell us about them red balls.
As far as children, I think my 15 y.o. looked at some pR0n on my shift the other day. I spent hours deciding how to sterilize it, in the event that he diddled himself, without blitzing the circuits. My first impulse was to soak it in bleach for a day or two. How's that for some FML?????

Ah crap didn't realize there was no root for 2.3.3 yet. Had to have the wife's phone replaced. This blows

umm...
this will probably sound really stupid, so just remember that I come from the easy-to-root epic forum.
I assume it's not possible to RUU back to 2.2, root, unlock, then flash gingerbread?
I guess my question really is, why doesn't this method work?

Because the RUU checks the hboot and says you've got the wrong one and fails.

I know your saying is correct, but if it is simply just that, how come with revolutionary on other phones you can run a RUU and it'll reset the phone but keep s-off? Or is it because revolutionary just does something crazy?

Dunno. I may be wrong in the above too. I've been lucky enough to keep my root and haven't actually been paying much attention to the problem of rooting the 2.3 OTA.
