Root How to root HTC Evo 4G+ korea (Rider X515E )

I want to ROOT my android phone from korea HTC EVO 4G+ (rider E515E )
Android version 4.0.3
HTC sense version 3.6
and HBOOT version >> htp://postimg.org/image/e6cegxxbh/

anyone can help me please :(
 
The closest version to your phone on our forums according to wikipedia is the HTC EVO 3D. The big question is do you have the CDMA model or the GSM model. If you use a SIM card you have the GSM model and should probably use this guide. I say probably because the HTC EVO 4G+ was released exclusively in South Korea and I have no idea what kind of networks or carriers you use over there. As much as it pains me to say this maybe you'd be better off checking out XDA-Developers for a rooting guide.

curious what is your hboot and radio? does it say locked at the top of your bootloader? rooting your phone is possible, but getting a custom recovery might not be.

let me see what is out there for you.

that is ok. on most evo's in the bootloader it will list the radios(baseband). it might list it in the "about phone" option in your phone's settings. but that info is not really needed based on the guide i linked earlier. the guide will show you how to unlock the bootloader, get recovery, and lastly how to flash the su file. once you do all that then you will be fully rooted.

now as far as custom roms go........there is not any as this particular evo does not really have any support. there is a possibility that you can flash any of the evo 3d roms that are out there, but i'm not 100% sure on that. custom roms are device specific, but your phone is closer to the evo 3d then the og evo i believe.......your call.

and lastly if you plan on deleting any bloatware make sure that you make a nandroid backup. you will need to do this in recovery. once you are rooted, we can walk you how to do it, if you do not know how.

thank you for the guidance, I want you to tell step by step how rooted, because I was a beginner, and also the way to recovery, thanks in advance :)
