You want to unroot it? What for if I may ask? I'm only asking to make sure you aren't going to unroot to take an ota...

You will most likely get more money for an s-off rooted phone.

There is a list of ROMs under Android Development thread (CDMA or GSM). You can downloaded official stock unrooted ROMs or stock rooted ROMs.
if you do it will change your hboot and relock your evo but you will still have s off and yes you will loos root but you can root it and regain s off by going through the steps at alpharevolutionary.io and reinstall your custom recovery aswell

1.13.651.1 is the stock ROM that was released with the phone. Consider yourself lucky if you want to root and unlock, because this version you can root, unlock and S-OFF. Don't take the OTA update if you want to root, unlock and S-OFF.

That the one that just ame out 2 weeks ago. He right. If u wanna root without ease, run your S-Off now, then flash the firmware. Or else u won't be able to S-Off if u accept the update.

So the new one can't root, unlock and S-Off yet?
I thought it was possible. Hmm.. maybe I gotta read more.
(Reason why I'm curious is because I want to return my phone for a new one. The 3G on my phone SUUUUUUCKS compared to my brothers. But now yo're giving me things to worry about. =[ )

If I am not mistaken you can still unlock through htc and root but you won't be able to get s-off.
It is an early build! I got the 1.22.651.3 notification...I declined (Root baby)

In that case, I'm not so worried about it.
I don't need S-OFF on this phone anyway, as you can flash Kernel even with S-ON on this phone.
Thank you friend.
http://support.sprint.com/support/a..._box=evo 4g lte update&id16=evo 4g lte update
That is the official updates for the phone from sprints website, but just found out reading through here to not update to the latest if you want to s-off.

I don't think this is true anymore - I'm pretty sure the new hboot in the update prevents flashing kernels when s-on htc unlocked.

S-OFF and the 3.14.605.12 OTA

Hi guys.
So I am getting a Rezound on Monday and I plan on doing S-OFF overtop the official ICS OTA.
But I don't want to mess up the phone. Has anybody tried S-OFF with the 3.14.605.12 OTA?
Any replies are appreciated.
Best regards,
Sam

JuopunutBear s off is for the 3.14.605.5 leak, but that leak has the same radios as the ota.
I personally used the s off method while running 3.14.605.10 firmware with no problems so I don't see why the ota version wouldn't work

You truly don't NEED s-off to get most of the roms to work while on the OTA firmware. Although, the phone will come with gingerbread. I say keep s-on/no root for like a week or 2 just so you can work out any kinks if you get a bad one. Also yes at this point, our current s-off procedure cannot really be patched up.
I think it should work with 3.14.605.12 also. I performed s-off being on 3.14.605.10

Do you mean you can't go back S-On? Because yes you can. There's a thread in the dev section about it; it's just a fastboot command ("fastboot writesecureflag 3" or something like that).
Like the others have said, you should be able to S-Off when on the OTA since it has the same radios as the .5 and .10.
Thank you for your replies guys. I appreciate it. Do any of you recommend stock or an ICS rom to flash? I haven't had a HTC since I had a OG Droid Incredible (awesome device) so Ive been out of the loop for a while now. Lol.

No. You misread, It will be Verizon's failure if they attempt to patch up the s-off wire trick. Sorry I give more info than what's needed. For the OTA & S-off is concerned. Yes the current procedures work with the OTA's firmware.

Oh, I get what you mean now. You mean the vulnerability used to gain S-Off cannot be patched, at the moment. Yeah, misread that initially, my bad.

[Q] Question about MeanBean and Baseband update

If anyone can help or maybe just explain it a bit better since I'm a bit lost. Still a bit of a noob
I'm rooted and on s-on since I'm on 1.19.
In the MeanBean forum, in Section lll under firmware. It says, "If your baseband is less than 1.12.11.1119, you have old firmware and should update." I have baseband version 1.12.11.0809 so I believe mine is old. So I followed the directions, clicked on the link, followed directions on that link, updated my firmware and after all said and done, my baseband is still on 1.12.11.0809.
Should it have updated to 1.12.11.1119? I'd like to update to this rom as I've been on Mean rom and do enjoy Mikey's roms. I must be missing something.
Thanks
Johnny
You're still S-On, you have to run RUU then take the OTA to get the firmware.
Go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671577&highlight=ruu and read the part at the end of post #1 "How to unroot"
Otherwise, get S-Off and you can flash whatever to your hearts content.
Thanks Wolfclan68
I ran RUU so I'm unrooted. When you say OTA, does that mean "over the air". You don't mean the HTC software update do you? Wouldn't this destroy my phone since I was rooted? Just want to make sure.
Thanks

No that would not destroy ur phone. Ota means exactly what u stated. If u take the Ota, which is not advised, u most likely will not b able to get S-off anytime soon. S-off is truly what u need. However, use ota rootkeeper to keep root if u take the sprint ota which again is not advised.

Thank you Tekno4ever. I think I'll hold off on the ota update and MeanBean will have to wait. Since they have RUU for ICS, anyone think they'll have RUU for JellyBean or does that even make sense? Sometimes I think I'm talking another language on XDA. I think I'll read up on dirtyracun and s-off.
Thanks guys.
