New Teamwin root

So anyone have any info on whether this root method for the 3D will work on the 4G?

Considering the Evo and the Evo3d are two completely different phones, I highly doubt that would work for ours

From what I have read it is a gingerbread kernel exploit... which may work.

Ever notice how the rage exploit was used on multiple phones.... unrevoked

Seriously, I know that I'm anxious, but correct me if I'm wrong... Any general exploit, OS or application such as Adobe, can be used to gain root on any system running it. Since we already have eng hboot and recovery for the evo this may be what we have been waiting for.
I don't know a ton about kernels, but I don't think every phone has a different one...

If I was forced to guess - I'd say yes.
They're both coming with the same bootloader, and they're both coming from the GB update. The only real difference between a 3D and a 4G is the kickup in hardware specs. Otherwise, they're the same thing for all intents and purposes.
I kind of always suspected that those GB OTA updated 4Gs would be "saved" once someone came out with a 3D exploit/root.
Getting root is only half the battle. The locked bootloader needs to be fixed, as well. Can't do much with root if you can't mess with recovery at all. At best, it gets you Wireless Tether and root-needed apps back - but nothing in terms of flashing any roms or the like.

Thanks. When did HTC start locking the bootloader?
This may help clear up the confusion regarding root and s-off...

"20:05 <@agrabren> We don't believe it will work on the EVO 4G."
so it doesn't look like their exploit works with the 4G

I sure hope so......Not only do I have a 3D, but my wife's Evo bricked itself while charging last night. I'm quite sure that the refurb I'm supposed to be getting will have the GB update already on it when I get it. :{

Dammit!!!! Well, at the very least we know there are still weaknesses in HTC's armor.

I just got my replacement a week ago, brand new evo, after my phone fell out of my pocket on the freeway while on my bike, and it came with GB on it, I tried swapping the logic boards on the phones but no go, it was fractured.
Any word on "progress" <---(PROGRESS NOT ETA; hents, 'going good', 'not even trying', 'hit a brick wall', or 'too busy playing with myself') with the new B.S. hboot 2.16.S*thware? Searched and came up with nothing, and been searching religiously everyday and no sign of anyone saying anything. Is every Dev working the 3d over like a $2 hooker and forgetting phones break and have to be replaced?

I am waiting also, my speaker is blown on my 003 hardware EVO, and I'm not going to subject myself to flash withdraws until the new one gets rooted

fre3vo
I just ran fre3vo on my EVO 4G and it said...
locating access point...
This device is unsupported by this exploit.
BUMMER!

Uh... Each device has its own kernel. You can even have different kernels for the same device. Each with different hacks and features. Sorry don't have an evo. Just browsing recent posts/threads.

Just tell insurance you flashed something to it and now it doesn't work. It's not like warranty replacement, with insurance you can get it fixed no matter what you decided to do, so its not illegal. If you want to call insurance feel free to tell the truth

Learned my lesson with the erris.

I think your best shot is to see if there's anyone near you who's willing to let you borrow their XTC clip. You could buy one but they are rather expensive. Good luck.

What is an xtc clip? I have herd of this but I dunno what it is or how to use it. Pardon my HTC noobness! I had a fascinate.
Sent from my Dinc2.

Are you sure this is even because of 2.3? I flashed it. So I'm kinda concerned now.
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA App

A XTC clip is a piece of hardware that can change bootloader security to s-off allowing you to flash custom roms or in your case return your phone to its stock state.

This happened to me on my Eris a few times but a reboot fixed it. Try reflasing the ruu?

Like the posting above says, re-do the RUU exe that you used the first time.
After that, take out battery, and restart with volume down and power, then
do a factory reset. After you activate the phone with VZN, it ought to be OK.

Well I didn't have much time to mess with it today, but this evening i formatted the phone twice, and you want to know what fixed it, turning back on auto rotation and then back of again...then magically the screen was letting me type normal again...
But now I'm annoyed seeing cm7 out for this phone, with no way to root the leaked gb rom..
We need s off and root for this phone and the gb leak asap.....

You can root the gb leak. You need an xtc clip though
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA Premium App

TRUST ME,
your problem is not the leaked RUU.
It's as stable as can be.
it's a hardware issue and you should just file an warranty claim with vz, don't tell them about anything upgraded unless they ask.
The more i use this leaked RUU, the more i believe it's as close to an official to be released build as possible.

Hello.

i was just wanting to say hi im coming from the sprint hero and hopefully if all goes well im getting the incredible 2 tomorrow morning witch is my dream phone pretty much lol.

Welcome aboard. Hopefully s-off will come out for gingerbread soon.

Yeah asking how to unbrick your phone. Look I understand being around the root process, o switched time roms twice a day on my fassy. This thing is a diffrent beast. So humble yourself and read because you need s-off. Then flash a recovery then root by flashing Su or installing a Rom. But welcome.

If your Inc2 would happen to come with 2.2, the most you would get with s-on is temp-root, no custom recovery, no custom roms, no custom kernels, and you'll lose that temp-root after rebooting. Inorder to achieve permaroot you need s-off. Software s-off can be reversed btw. So run Z4 if you want. Most you'll get is temp-root and nothing further with at, if that at all.

[Q] To the Revolutionary Team

First off I want to say thank you to everyone on this team for being able to get S-OFF for the majority of our phones. My question now since S-OFF is only temporary for the recent exploit of HTC Evo 4g 2.16.001, how would we or can we get S-On in case the phone has to be returned in the future for whatever reason. I have not seen RUU or drivers, many inquiring minds do want to know.
Thanks fellas.

Since sprint supports rooted devices you wont need to unroot to take it in for service.

Just because Sprint may service the phone might not mean that your warranty will cover it. That's why people would like to turn it back to S-ON before having the phone serviced.

How to?

I searched around a bit and couldn't find much about rooting the evo? I'm on samsung epic and its a lot different from what I see. I do know that it had gotten the bootloader locked right? Well my sisters phone is on 4.54.651.1 I don't know if I can root it?

you can flash ANY rom made for the htc evo4g no restrictions . Some themes only work with specific roms. If your looking for a good rom that has ALOT of themes and mods check out TommyTomatoes classic rom and then MikG

You flash themes that are made for the exact rom you have installed. For example, flash a MikG theme for a MikG rom. Also make sure that the theme is for rom version you have installed. ROM could be updated and an older theme may not work for that version.
