I found a solution for my problem, maybe it can help you aswell?
My goal was to have a rooted EVO 3D with LeeDroid's Custom ROM on it.

1.) Use HTC Super Tool v3 to root your phone! (Just follow the on-screen steps)

2.) Download Rom Manager from the market and install CWM Recovery

3.) Now you can flash a custom ROM on your device

---------------------------------------------------------------
You still have have the same Hboot version and S-on (I tried to attempt S-Off with super tool, but i got an error message)
but your phone is rooted and you have CWM on it! ;)

Guys guys download the ruu from the stickies in dev forum for your device run it will downgrade your bootloader to 1.49.007 then root with HTC supertool then allowing you to unlock bootloader with rev rather than htcdev so you can lock it again without the relock sign means if you want to go back to stock re run ruu takes out cwm then take the ota update back to stock locked bootloader not relocked did post a thread about this but as usual I just get ingnored

I downloaded this file "PG86IMG" than I put it on my sd-card and I tried to install it with hboot. No change at all, maybe I have to relock the bootloader?

Or is there another way to "install" the RUU?
