Ok there needs to be a ROM and kernel page for the 3d, just sold my 4G and picked up a 3d got it rooted now I'm here. But I really wish there was a page just for roms and kernels. I'm on the stock ROM I'm fine with this ROM but i would really like the ability to take a screen shot, is there a kernel out there that would give me that ability? Thank u
 
The EVO 3D has native screenshot ability. Press the Power button and quickly but firmly push the Home button. It may take a couple of tries to get the hang of it. The screenshots are saved in the Gallery under Camera Shots.

As for ROMs, if you like Sense check out CleanROM by scrosler. He also has one called Senseless. I use CleanROM and really like it a lot. I have also read good things about Senseless.
 
No that only works if u got the latest ota update and would have made it near impossible to root. I know almost all custom roms have it cooked in to there roms but i would like to stay stock. Thanks tho
 
Welcome and the All things rooted is the Rom and Kernel section, all you need will be in this section, and if anything is missing simply ask and we will find it for you if you don't, I see Carrie has already answered your question, if there is anything else don't hesitate to ask.

Actually the ability to make native screenshots was enabled in the update before the one that changed the hboot to 1.5. If you haven't updated that far then flashing CleanROM will get it for you. I haven't used Senseless but it is most likely in that one as well.
 
As Carrie mentioned try it has all you need and we think you will be happy with it, make sure before flashing you do a Nandriod

[ROM] 11/23/11 - CleanROM 2.9.5 - GB 2.3.4 - Back to Perfection! (

Again, I don't want to flash a custom ROM i would like to stay with the stock rom for now if anyone else has any suggestions please let me know. And I don't see any roms and kernels pages anywhere.
 
The Rom and Kernels are all posted in this section, the all things rooted, you simply have to read through all the threads to see which one you are looking for. And I just posted a Rom for you and you said you don't want to flash a Rom, so what you are looking for is kernels there are many out there, but keep in mind on what you are flashing, and as Carrie said if you did the second update before the HBoot 1.50 then you should be able to take native screen shots, if not you can download a few apps that will allow for that, Drocrap and Shootme, Shootme may not be in the market anymore but you can Google it and still find it and sideload it.

I found that with my rooted Evo 3D, 3rd party screen shot apps wouldn't work. I would take a screenshot and the resulting image would be scribly lines of unviewable junk.

I wouldn't be so tied to the stock firmware, if I were you OP. I stuck with it for a couple of months because I really loved it. Then one day I suffered the Black Screen of Death: Some HTC Evo 3D Users Experiencing Black Screen Of Death

Somehow after a few days I was able to boot into the recovery screen and do a factory reset, and got my phone working again.

Ever since then, I am very very weary of the stock ROM. I have since rooted my Evo 3D, and am going to put CleanROM on it to use. I simply don't trust the stock ROM any more after my terrible experience.

As a result of that I am still using my Evo 4G running CM7, which is working 100% just the way I like it.
