Mistake or Just Guilt? - Hero CDMA General

Now I know I Could of posted this in the Evo 3D forum... But since I feel like I'm kind of Abandoning My Trusty little buddy (HTC Hero) I figured I Owed it to post here!
Which if I may add is, in my Opinion the Best and Most Loyal forum on XDA!
With that said... I'm Sad to say that come Monday I Should have my HTC EVO 3D! Don't worry though I'll Definitely stop in from time to time to Check on my Favorite community hands Down! And I'll continue to do what I can for Anyone who needs Help whether for my ExEnHeroC ROM or just General Q & A! Finally I guess, I could only Hope that the Developers and community over in the EVO 3D section is at least half as Helpful as my Hero Friends have been!
Thanx for Everything Guys!

Oh man, I loved your froyo sense rom, can't wait to see you over here

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.

Question... Now as far as Rooting, and Recovery goes with the 3D, Which method would you Suggest is the Fastest or Easiest that's Available at the moment?

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.

Yeah? Ok man Good to know! Thanx for the Insight!
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.

Did I Screw Myself????

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.

give them a chance, you want them to drop everything and work on a program for the wildfire that they make no money from. i'm sure these people have lives too, and it's been all of about 5 weeks since update. patience people
and yes wildpuzzle is fantastic

agree with you....i also have to wait for the unrevoked update
now got my hands on 2.2 official update....
no,they probably has it, they probably want to do some surprise with nice interface etc stuff, i do not belive that team unrevoked can not find any exploit in wf.
Everything is hackable,look at greenpois0n, redsn0w etc...they jailbreaked iphoine4 and now they are cracking soft 4.2.1, iphone 4 users also has to wait if they did update to 4.2.1...
So my point is ->this will be done, they are superb good and this is just matter of time.

finding an exploit in a bootloader(!!!) is little different then writing simple hello world program or whatever scenario you are thinking about. and if these inpatient folks here keep spamming the board with a new troll thread every day then I really hope there will be NO unrevoked. so please just keep waiting for it and stop annoying people! Noone from unrevoked will keep attention to your crying! so just stop it!
Btw the wildfire is already a great device even without root access so what's your problem???? you can still use your android!!! I used mine for months before even trying to root it!

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.

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?

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

Yep, I'm laying some -root- tonight!!!!!

I have a 2 year old terror for a son, that is constantly playing with my phone. The blue htc case has been the best purchase i have made in a long time.

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.

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?????

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?

You are really missing something... None of the evo shift users used the htc unlock tool to root our phones... Kinda weird we all got it to work...
