The link you posted is to the original ruu/rom posted & that thread was more for testing/working out issues with the build. The problems were sorted out & fixed & a new thread made with the working rom,hence the other link posted. No problem though, thanks for posting the link.

I have a EVO design with h boot 1.26.xxx and radio 1.11.00.1228
Android 2.3.4 software 2.12.651.5
How do I root? I need s-off. If there isn't one check out the EVO 3d. We loaded the latest zip and soft bricked it and ran a emmc tool to push a lower hboot

I havn't check into these thread in months, wanted to touch base on what the latest and greatest is for the design 4G? My phone gets hot as **** after 10 minutes of doing anything. Not even web surfing, just whatever. Is this common? It reboots itself after it gets so hot. It's rooted and has been for awhile,but running stock OS.

I thought there was an OTA released 2 months ago, I Never downloaded it, but its not available when I check. I"m on 1.19.651.0

It's probably a bad phone, my wife's phone did the same thing and Sprint replaced it.

Hot while playing games is expected. Hot where it starts to feel uncomfortable and burns from talking on the phone or checking Facebook, that's not cool.

Quickest way to wifi tether and bloatware removal.

Hey there,

So glad I found this thread.

I recently switch from a regular EVO 4G that I had been lugging around all these years. Love the slimmer, lighter feel of the Design.

But I am stunned at the lack of support and popularity for the Sprint EVO Design 4G!

I went through three different ROMs on my old EVO. I hate the bloatware on stock ROMs and use Wifi tether on a frequent basis.

I have the latest OTA on my Design so Frigid's SuperTool does not work.

Can anyone please tell me the quickest, easiest way to get wifi tether working and remove bloatware or load a custom ROM?

Kind of s-off. The sim-lock & radios are s-on or locked down. Everything else works as s-off (custom recoveries, roms, kernels, etc.) , but your bootloader will say unlocked s-on.

How in the heck do you get HTC boot loader to work? It does nothing. I've created an account, tried different browser. I click the green button and nothing.

Is there something else I can do to get this to work? I would very much like wifi tethering to work on mah phone.

Thanks to any good sirs responding.

Most of the development is at 2 sites. 2fastroms.com (listed as the hero s under the download section) has the root methods (I used his oneclickroot tool - but since you have the latest ota that method of root will not work), clockworkmod recovery, & a custom stock rom or two. I would suggest still downloading that tool & fastboot.exe (place fastboot in the same folder as adb), then follow the directions on htcdev.com to unlock your bootloader. Then install install the recovery. Don't worry about root yet.

The rest of the development is at sdx-developers.com. Several custom roms & mods - even ics sense 3.6 leak. Most roms are versions of stock sense, but aosp us currently be worked on via evervolv rom.

As to wifi tether some threads at sdx-developers.com have info on getting it.
To root, after getting your bootloader unlocked, recovery installed & rom flashed, you will need a su.zip floating around here or sdx. Just flash it in recovery & you will be root.

Thanks for your reply. I've been trying to unlock the bootloader via the app (?) on htcdev.com but the button does not do anything. I select my phone from the dropdown, hit the button, and nothing happens.

I'm sort of an idiot so I could be completely missing something but, what? Why isn't the button doing anything?

Do you have popup windows blocked? As I just tried via my Mac/safari browser at work & it asked for my username/password (you have to create an account to use the tool). Try a different browser, maybe. Make sure you are on a desktop computer & not your phone.

I get the pop-up to login - and I do. Then I go back to the Unlock Bootloader screen, select my phone again, and hit the button and nothing happens.

What normally should happen here? Does the button initiate some sort of process or? I am completely befuddled.

I've tried in both IE and FF and... nothing.

It will ask if you are sure you want to continue, then ask you to click you understand the legal terms in another popup screen, then click continue on to instructions. Just went through the whole process of using/getting to the instructions. Not sure what is up as it works here.

My fiance moved on from the evo 4g to the evo design 4g. Ive unlocked the bootloader flashed the cwm recovery,ics sense 3.6 and the su zip. It has full root my only issue is i cant get any wifi tether to work on it. It says " Activating wifi interface... Failed " Did i miss something? Or does the tethering just not work with this rom?

Does the HTC unlock basically reset the data/apps installed? I tried searching, but it was conflicting info. Thanks for the help.
