    Root [CDMA] Dang, that was hard (ICS upgrade from hboot 1.04)

    Howdy, So it's been a while since I came by here. I knew ICS came out a while ago, but because I have the new Evo LTE, I didn't immediately update my old Evo 3D. Today, I finally decided to do it. Of course, I missed out on all the threads that probably explained exactly what I needed to...

    What's your exposure to Android?

    Just curious how much experience everyone has had with Android devices. My first Android device was the HTC Evo 4G for Sprint, released in June 2010. Being a Premier member, I was eligible for annual upgrades, so every year, I got the successor to the Evo: the Evo 3D in 2011 and most...

    NOTE: If you are running JB (Android version 4.1.x), the following root exploits below will not work; they were designed for ICS. You'll have to wait for a new root exploit for JB. If you already rooted on ICS AND have a unlocked bootloader and recovery, you can safely take the JB update. You...

    Root [CDMA] clockworkmod 5.0.0.x available

    By chance, I opened ROM Manager and it told me a new CWM was available: 5.0.0.0. So I flashed it. Made a NANDroid with it. Just read in another forum that old NANDroids won't work with v5.0. So I'm going to test it. Will post results later. Not too concerned, since if I really wanted to, I...

    Root [CDMA] Error 16 (Sprint)

    I heard that some people were getting "Error 16" when trying to make an outgoing call after rooting. I had not experienced this after rooting (I tested when I heard people reporting this). But today, after I did a factory data reset, I had this problem. Made a call, and I got error 16. I...

    Root [CDMA] How to manually flash a recovery image (via fastboot OR from SD card)

    As of this post, it would appear that the S-OFF tool, Revolutionary, may not successfully flash clockworkmod recovery for everyone. And once it S-OFFs your HBOOT, it won't run again, so there's no way to get it to retry the recovery flashing. The following is a guide on how to manually flash a...

    Root [CDMA] I have S-OFF! (but no recovery?)

    S-OFF was a breeze, just like the leaked Sensation S-OFF video. The tool then prompts if you want clockworkmod recovery. say yes of course. Next step: back up my apps (just in case) and then flash the rooted stock ROM to get superuser.

    close-up on the parallax barrier

    Recently I decided to take a closer look at how the parallax barrier works. I grabbed an old 8x loupe from the old film camera supply box and looked through it. It was quite a neat sight. The parallax barrier is a series of vertical stripes, each one pixel wide, and from what I could tell...

    UI Lag

    I was playing with a View during launch and noticed that scrolling the Sense UI was very choppy. I gave the store demo unit a reboot, but it didn't help. Anyone else seeing this? Even the Evo 4G, which was known to have choppy scrolling frame rates, performed better than the view.

    Picture quality analysis (2D)

    The Evo 3D is such a camera-centric phone that IMO it deserve a very robust analysis of its cameras. This post will focus on image quality for 2D photos. Let's start off with some photo comparisons with the predecessor, the Evo 4G. In the following images, the top picture is from the E3D, and...

    Bluetooth HID devices supported

    It would appear that the Evo 3D supports bluetooth HID devices. I just paired and connected my MoGo Mouse. But I don't have a mouse cursor, and there are lots of things I can't interact with. I can scroll the carousel, and I can scroll menus and make selections. But right-click is not bound...

    Root [CDMA] How to boot into bootloader (HBOOT)

    I've noticed that it's a little harder to get the phone to boot into HBOOT on the Evo 3D compared to the Evo 4G (and possibly other older HTC phones). The first and essential step is to first disable fast booting if it's enabled. To do that: Go to Settings > Power > Fast boot (uncheck the...
