Hi i haven't got my evo yet is due to be delivered today but just reading up on how to root and s-off

on here you say first steps are

What you already had to do:
Unlock your device at www.htcdev.com
Flash a custom ROM i.e. LeeDroiD
Download the "Tool"

But on leeDroiD thread
It states that S-Off & a Custom recovery required before flashing

Now as far as i am aware htc dev only unlocks the bootloader and does not give full s-off access

obviously. this one is just for downgrading - no s-off.
But you can flash the rom, but wifi wont work afterwards.

just need to flash custom recovery and flash the rom as usual.

Disclaimer: You do that because you want it. Noone forces you to do that. Problems always can be solved, I will help as much as I can.

This will downgrade your hboot to 1.49.0007
If you is branded by any other carrier then vodafone, this won't work. (Unbranded Device's too)
Why is that so? Because it is not possible til now to debrand your device.
I have tried plenty things with some friends, sadly no luck at all.
CID changing does not work for branded devices, if there is not more than one RUU.
Vodafone Version is around the corner, since it has a RUU which has the matching Hboot.

What you already had to do:
  • Unlock your device at www.htcdev.com
  • Flash a custom ROM i.e. LeeDroiD
  • Download the "Tool"

Unbranded:
This Tool will work, if your device has one of the following CID's.
Code: 
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__032
cidnum: HTC__A07
cidnum: HTC__102
cidnum: HTC__304
cidnum: HTC__203
cidnum: HTC__E11
cidnum: HTC__N34
cidnum: HTC__405
cidnum: HTC__Y13
cidnum: HTC__016
cidnum: HTC__J15

Vodafone Branded:
This Tool will work, if your device has one of the following CID's.
Code: 
cidnum: VODAP001
cidnum: VODAP102
cidnum: VODAPE17
cidnum: VODAP304

If your cid is not on the list, you cannot downgrade your device yet.

How to:
  • Download this Tool for an unbranded device
  • Download this Tool for a vodafone branded device
  • RUN Step1.exe
  • RUN Step2.exe when step1 came up with no errors

In step 2, I will relock your device then flash the RUU.
It might stuck at the very end of the procedure.

Don't worry, it's okay. Just remove battery and reboot.

Please, if you are experience problems, describe everything you have done and I will try to help.

Have fun and enjoy your freedom.

Always remember; you are a noob on xda :) I am also one, so does not one feel attacked.

well man I wanted to use your TOOL for UNBRANDED devices but for some reason its not downloadable in my country ! could you plzz upload it somewhere else where its more accessible !

well even if I dont use ur tool I'm stuck with a RELOACKED bootloader and can't find and download the PG86IMG.zip file (mainly coz of that SOPA thingy) !!
don't know where to go from here !! I've got an Asian Evo 3D X515m with Hboot ver 1.49.0011 (STOCK ROM) ! Kindly guide me !!!

no, leedroid does not need soff.
the only thing what needs soff is the kernel.
but u can flash it via fastboot on anytime. Sadly kernels cannot be installed through recovery

Do not ask a question like this in here. It has nothing to do with my thread.

Fastboot flash boot boot.img

    Ok I think I got it.

    If follow this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1248231 thread. to unlock bootloader and install a cmw

    then flash the kernel image file of leedroid (boot.img from inside leedroid.zip) using "Fastboot flash boot boot.img" while still in fastboot mode

    then enter recovery and flash the leedroid rom (the ledroid.zip)

    then i should be able to boot and run your tool ? from leedroid home screen in charging mode , debug enabled/drivers installed


    sorry, i just need someone who knows what they are doing to confirm.

    take the minus mirror - should be faster.
    no, you also need to be prerooted, flash a custom ROM after unlocking.
    then you can run step1. No errors on step1? then run step2.
