sorry, didn't mean to bash your OS..this thread is about rooting a 3DEVO on a MAC..chill, man

So much hate. Android doesn't automatically mean you have a window s or Linux computer... I have a Facebook pro but would never by the iPhone as it currently is.

First It's not mac its apple now second maybe 6 to 10 yrs ago mac/apple was better but now windows 7 just as good as apple os imo least as nice looking and does n't have to many problems and has more compatible progs etc o and you can build your comp how you want
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
I didn't "analyze the ecosystem" when I switched to Mac; its a damn OS, NOT a "lifestyle" to me..

I like their machines for a variety of reasons, but to me, OSX has infinitely less problems for the way I computer, versus how win worked for me..

To each his own; but I do not drink the Apple Kool Aid, I just like some of their stuff..

If this is true, I am very impressed, I will retract my statements. Its just that most people in your cult are not very open minded and become iSheep.
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
I agree with you; there are plenty of "sheep" who drink the cool aid, and, I am ok when they do; to each his own, I say..

OSX just works better for me; actually, until I just upgraded to Lion, I had a virtual machine of Win7 installed, but, the older VM's don't work right on Lion as of now.

If they don't release a native mac procedure to root this thing within a few days, I'll just install a win7 partition on my mac, or get access to someones win machine and do it that way,

A couple more days won't kill me; I like the phone a lot even though its stock for now
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
For anyone wondering why I said "not to adults" when somebody tried to point out how owning an Android and a Mac might be an oxymoron...well...refer to the past page.

I dual boot Win7/Hackintosh...why? Why not.

Jesus Christ, it's a computer, not a religion not a lifestyle and not a marriage...there is no penalty in the afterlife and you don't need to involve a lawyer to get a different one.
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
No way! LOL jk I don't.care.either way and hope they release it for you
[HTC EVO 3D] poweroutlet:
Fair enough, its just the Apple extremists who I have a problem with, the ones who literally treat it as a religion and a way of life and insist people who use "windoze" are some sort of mentally challenged imbeciles. I apologize for attacking you as I mistook you for a fanboy.
[HTC EVO 3D] ericmcintire:
Except when you wanna root your phone I guess...
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
Like I said before, unrevoked had a mac solution a few days after the EVO4G was rooted last year, and, I am sure that there will be one shortly as well..

patience is a virtue, my friend
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
no offense taken, man, we are all friends here..
[HTC EVO 3D] goodelyfe:
who pointed out what? i just said wouldnt that be like an oxy moron? no more no less

like others have stated, normally an apple user will be loyal and stick to apple products....its very uncommon for an apple customer to intertwine the 2, however...if more apple users were like the OP, im pretty sure the image of apple users wouldnt be as extreme or bad :)

was just a question....unwad your panties :)

furthermore, being an adult has NOTHING to do with what is or what isnt an oxy moron :)

Quick fix is to sell the mac made by the evil company called apple and buy a computer that runs windows or linux.
[HTC EVO 3D] cruise350:
Crappintosh wants to end Android so why don't you own an icrap like all the other Stevo sheep. Apple sucks the way they can't handle competition so I vote no mac solution for root.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Without the competition the entire market would suffer. Grow up. Without iphone etc to compete with what motivation would android et al have for improving?
[HTC EVO 3D] goodelyfe:
REALLY? REALLY daneurysm? REALLY??!?!!!?!?!!!!!

so you take what i ask about it being an oxy moron, dissect it and try and compare it to racism? .....while it may be a stereotype of apple fans being strictly apple.... it was an honest question. furthermore, ask majority of apple fans and they will tell you they are 'appled out' so my assertion wasnt too far off

way to downgrade and minimalize racism....

while i can see your attempts to try and compare the two, your analogy is very weak at best.

+1 to you buddy :) what a slap in the face to those who are truly discriminated against and affected by racism
[HTC EVO 3D] goodelyfe:
besides everybody knows healthy jive/joking/****-talking between the android & iOS or any other platform for that matter is just what it is. Jokes and having fun....

no need to get all serious!!!!

where's teh joker when ya need him.

lets just be grateful the OP took it all in stride and for what it was instead of getting butt hurt and comparing like yourself?

lemme buy ya a beer bro :)
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
You do realize that you were doing the same exact to people who simply own a different brand of computer hardware? Sensationalize this all you want, try to turn this around all you want...you were the first one in this entire thread to instigate the "us vs them" meme.

Minimalize racism? No, I'm trying to point out the idiotic common thread between a racists logic and your own. Lines in the sand, man...take a side, right?
[HTC EVO 3D] demo27vol1:
lol really? I guess personal preference is a thing of the past.

#LMAO nobody is backing down, you as well as everybody else knows you are being hella dense right now, not to mention REACHING, REACHING very HARD....i could debate and show your blatant fallacies, but why? lol its pointless. Accuse & point all you want, i've done nothing of the sort :) No need to project onto me :)

you made an assumption and pretty much making an ass out of yourself ALL from what i said

what a way to come to a conclusion ;) beer(s) still on me though :)

Jeez Apple haters are worse than Apple fanboys :D
[HTC EVO 3D] liverstealerJobs:

To the original poster, jeez get a PC. You made the adult decision to go with a Mac only. Quit whining like a child. This play has been on rewind since the begining of computing time.

[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
Wtf why are people being such a ass he wasn't whining was just hoping that people wouldn't forget about those with apple comps and i know many people hate apple to them being Nazi-ish Jesus tho some of you are pricks go flash some roms n maybe jizz in your pants to calm the **** down thought some hate and tightness would vanish once s-off was here
[HTC EVO 3D] southern87:
What is funny....people with iPhones and windows do the same thing when a new jailbreak is released for apple/mac/2k peice of ****. They whine and moan like a highschooler getting her cherry poped

Too far
[HTC EVO 3D] el poblano:
On topic....

I only have an mbp, and I dual boot into ubuntu. I started this when the Droid x didn't have a recovery tool for mac, and I've kept it since. It's a good idea for compatibility wither the 'scene' and it has really helped with my understandingof android/Linux as a platform. ...plus its free.

Just if you decide to do it you have to use refit for booting.
[HTC EVO 3D] Konfuzion:
Competition? Didnt Steve Jobs put an end to that with his lawsuit? F him with his crap 10 year old patent.
[HTC EVO 3D] Konfuzion:
Wrong it was started by the OP with the "win doze" statement. I have been doing a lot of Apple bashing in this tread but its due to the Lawsuit so I stand firmly by F Apple. (I triple boot Win 7, OSX and Ubuntu so thats the solution when you want to jailbreak/root or whatever have all the tools available).
[HTC EVO 3D] dhoshman:
I have to agree that your best bet is going to be running virtual box or virtua box (can't really remember the name) with a windows 7 disc. I'm a mac owner and thats exactly what I did. Also you can use the usb just download the extension from their site and enable usb. Trust me I had no access to any other computer soo late at night. It was either ubuntu our windows and I had problems opening up the exe file on linux.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bamba1260:
Drunk and posting is bad....
[HTC EVO 3D] tek818:
Anyone with a Mac that doesn't have the know-how to install either Windows or Linux has ABSOLUTELY no business rooting anything.

Please take a look at this great editorial by Jerry Hildenbrand over at Android Central:

[HTC EVO 3D] el poblano:
Cut the attitude. I'd love to see you install slackware on a mac.

The thing is we are all at different stages of learning. We help each other out. That's what I've always loved about the community. You may be ahead of someone else, but you were just as inexperienced at some point in time.

Let's be supportive and help EVERYONE get the most out of their devices- not just those that can compile their own kernels or have all the adb commands memorized.

Can't we all just get along?! :P
[HTC EVO 3D] liverstealerJobs:
We all cool here. Just take a look at the OP. Despite all the helpful suggestions he wants a Mac only solution. Claims to be hacking phones for life and a former PC guy. But if you do any computing, you just don't go Mac only. You just don't.

Which smells of troll. Which leads to our responses. Well, at least mine.
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
Please dude...

No Troll here, just waiting for the pure mac solution, which, as I said a few times, if it doesn't come in a few days, I'll do something else.

I appreciate all the helpful suggestions,and, as I said, the new macosx, Lion, does not play well with Virtual machines as of yet, so its either boot camp and make a windows partition, which I would prefer not to do, or borrow a win machine and do it that way..

As far as your statement of "If you do any computing, you don't go Mac only", you couldn't be farther from the truth; the ONLY time I needed an Win machine over the last 5 years of Mac only, is for stuff like Rooting my phone...ALMOST EVERYTHING else in the computing universe, has a Mac solution now a days..

And, once again, I will say, that this thread is only about a mac solution for rooting the EVO3D, not a debate over Mac vs Windows

thanks for being respectful to your fellow XDA'ers!
[HTC EVO 3D] liverstealerJobs:
Not a Windows Mac debate at all. Linux solutions were suggested.

Sent from a 3VO. Long live the EVO.
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
You are correct about the linux solutions part; unfortunately, the Apple/Mac haters seem to be attracted to threads like this, and, all I really wanted to start a discussion about was my hope for a pure mac solution, just like Unrevoked came out with shortly after the Evo4G was rooted..

Since the Unrevoked team is part of the Revolution Team, it seems like the pure mac solution will be released as well.

BTW, I tried to run Ubuntu 11, 64 bit on my Lion-ized iMac, and, it won't let me do a "trial run"..Full install only.

So far, the new Mac OSX Lion has been kinda problematic for a lot of people..
[HTC EVO 3D] NewZJ:
disregard post, no helpful information
[HTC EVO 3D] danaff37:
For 64 bit ubuntu, you can only run 10.04 as a live center for some reason. And I highly recommend running it from usb as it is a lot faster. And mac lovers, you should try just installing ubuntu, it's well worth it. Also, if you install Cairo dock, you get a very good imitation of mac with a lot more compatibility.
[HTC EVO 3D] ericmcintire:
'

You contend that you only wanted to start a discussion for a "pure mac solution" when your first post contained what might just be the douchiest mac-owner term ever coined, "win-doze". Get over it, you're an attention seeking mac user, which is fine if that's what gets you off, but don't come back and say your intentions were pure... It's just insulting. You also seem to keep saying "patience is a virtue" and giving us reasons why there will ultimately be a "mac only solution" but if you truly believed that, why would you start this thread at all? Why not just wait? In order to actually contribute to this... It wouldn't kill you to buy a used Windows netbook for around $100 on ebay, even if only for this kind of stuff and to throw in your trunk for "just in case" situations". I've got one and it's come in handy more than a dozen times.
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
Thanks for the compliment on the term "win doze"..Nothing adds more to discussions like this than calling someone "douchy"..

I am an attention seeker? Dude, you have 235 posts, and not a SINGLE "Thanks"..obviously, you contribute nothing to this forum, except obnoxious comments and barbs..I can afford to buy 100 windows machines if I choose to; the fact is that I do NOT, and, I don't need leeches like yourself telling me what I can or can not do..Go away, and leech somewhere else, if you have nothing to contribute to this thread or this forum....

does that help any?
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
thanks, but that tut was written for Snow Leopard, and, unfortunately, I have upgraded last week to Lion..

I tried using the 10.04 64 bit version, but still won't start in "try it" mode..

I really appreciate all the constructive suggestions that several of you have posted here!
[HTC EVO 3D] ericmcintire:
Okay there internet tough guy, let's relax a little. I've got 235 posts since I've joined in 2006... The majority of my posts were from before there was a little "thanks" button. Please look over my past posts and find one example where I've been obnoxious to anyone other than you. No one is telling you what you "can or can not do", they are trying to give you solutions to the problem you have. The problem caused by the fact that you have a Mac. People seem to be offering you solutions left and right but none of them satisfy you. It sounds like you are being stubborn just for the sake of being stubborn. Also, just realized that I've received my first "thanks" and it was in my reply to you, according to you, this means I'm finally contributing. Yay me. On another note, if you live in the Hollywood area and you wanna borrow my netbook for a night to root your phone, no biggie. Drop me a PM.
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
Sorry, didn't mean to be a jerk bait, but there have been several obnoxious responses to me in this thread, and I thought yours was just another one of them. I've tried the Ubuntu suggestion, and my damn Lion upgraded mac just won't load up Ubuntu at this point..

I wish I lived in the Hollywood area, so I didn't have to deal with Chicago winters.

One of my buddies over at Android forums just confirmed to me that he did his evo3d with a VM in Snow leopard, and, I remember my wife's machine has snow leopard, and not Lion, so I think I may try it on her machine.

once again, sorry for snapping at you
[HTC EVO 3D] ericmcintire:
No worries man, I'd be on guard too in your situation. Hopefully the VM works and you can write up a how to for the rest of the Mac users on these forums, good luck.
[HTC EVO 3D] goodelyfe:
do you have any other machine other than macs?

i was gonna suggest maybe try usb creator: www.linuxliveusb.com

i had assumed your wife's machine was maybe something other than mac, but i guess this solution wouldnt work for you either huh?

also check #4 on http://www.webupd8.org/2009/04/4-ways-to-create-bootable-live-usb.html
[HTC EVO 3D] goodelyfe:
hmmmm i guess those are just ways to make a usb live drive....

either way wouldnt help because you said 10.04 wont even let you 'try it'

i wonder if you use another flavor of linux if it'll work for you?

perhaps try that?
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
thanks for these ideas, man..

I just remembered my wife's mac still has snow leopard on it, and, a friend over at Android forums told me that he was able to get the usb connection to work properly, using VMWare on his Snow leopard install, so, once I am done working for the day, I am going to try that on her iMac..

I appreciate your input!

:D

[HTC EVO 3D] Drachen808:
He has one that runs those OS's. It's all the same hardware now.

Good luck OP. I would dual boot windows in your situation since (as someone else has said) "why not?".

That way when cool stuff comes out you will be able to take advantage right away rather than waiting and hoping that it gets released for your OS, or waiting and hoping someone to port a version over to your operating system.
[HTC EVO 3D] Uchennadi:
This just reminds me of when would I see a really cool app on iOS, but can't get it on my phone cuz the developer hasn't or isn't willing to port it to android. It kind of makes me jelly a lil bit. Anyways, it would be nice to have a one size fits all solution, but as the situation stands, it is what it is.

I will say one thing tho, if you want something bad enough, you'll find a way.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
As one who works on hundreds of Window's computers a day, I 100% enjoy coming back home to my Mac. Spend a week with one, learn short cuts, learn how to use it to its full potential, then judge it. I'm sure most of you all have been on Window's for years. I have been using Windows for about 15 years, but as a computer tech., prefer something that can handle my needs. Oh and by the way, if you know what your doing, you can build your mac.

Don't get Macs and IOS devices linked on the same chain of hate simply because they both come from Apple, there's more to offer. Nothing's locked down, we don't have anything less (except minor things made only for Windows) but we can run windows also if needed. (Did you hear that? You can run Windows on your mac if your too scared to run with a change.)

Any ways, an OS isn't made for everyone. My opinions are liked by some and hated by the rest (assholes) but there's no reason to bash. We could say the same thing about all you Windows users, but don't need to.

Back on topic please, root app for mac wanted please.
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
Thank you so much for bringing some intelligent perspective into this thread; I wish the Windows folks would understand that the Mac computer world is really a whole different universe than the IBone World; even though Apple/Steve Jobs is trying to blur the line between those 2, its still up to everyone's likes and needs to determine if they buy into that or not;

Even though I had 2 Ibones, and jail broke both of them, I never felt that I was locked into their "ecosystem". as soon as I could get out of my contract with ATT, I jumped to Android, and would NEVER consider going back to the closed, controlled world of the IOS/IPhone.

I dont understand why there was all the hate directed at me and this thread; but, hey, as you stated, all we are really hoping for is a native Mac Rooting solution for the Evo3d, just like there was/is one for the Evo 4G

Respecting other people's opinions and desires is one of the most important things that we can do on Boards like XDA...
[HTC EVO 3D] Konfuzion:
What your missing is the OP started the whole Windows OSX bashing by calling Windows win-doze and then gets his panties in a bunch when people stab back. I have taken jabs just based off that when I have a triple boot machine Win7, OSX and Linux why not?
[HTC EVO 3D] Konfuzion:
Seriously OP take responsibility you started the win/apple debate in this thread (it probably would have gone there anyway) instead of trying to make the other people in here responsible. Second try to stop contradicting yourself (see bold).
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
Really, dude, did you consider the word "win doze" as bashing?

I didn't realize that folks on this board were so sensitive..

In the spirit of friendship, I apologize to you, if that word offended you..
[HTC EVO 3D] Konfuzion:
I am neither sensitive or offended but Win/Apple is already a touchy subject and you are opening the flood gates with that comment. Get it?

I should add I hope you guys do see a OS solution soon.
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
I guess its a touchy subject, but, I don't know why windows users are bothered by it; hell, they have 93% market share, so not sure why they even care what Mac users think..

Oh well, no biggie..it will be interesting to see how long it does take for a Mac Root to come out though...
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
Really 93% damn lol and now android has almost 50%. Of the world smartphone usage haha guess I understand why apple is so butthurt :D been years since iv played w a mac but wouldn't mind trying a new one
[HTC EVO 3D] Konfuzion:
Because 90% want to be right... Right that this is better than that and so on, Market share only the company itself cares about that and investors and people that want to bring up market share to validate that they are in fact right.
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
you'd be surprised as to how similar a lot of things are in OSX/win now a days..Although Lion, the newest release from Apple, isn;t what Snow Leopard was/is...not very impressed with it so far..
[HTC EVO 3D] Konfuzion:
No I wouldnt. Like I said in this thread I think 3 times I have a triple boot machine running Win 7, OSX (SL), and Linux.
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
how do you like Lion so far?
[HTC EVO 3D] Konfuzion:
No I am on Snow Leopard.
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
well, I tried it using my wife's snow leopard/vmware combo; I can NOT get s-off..everything looks fine, I enter the serial number, it starts to root, fast boot menu comes up, and I still have s-0n

I've done it 3 times; for some reason, the virtual machine loses connection with the phone when it does the first reboot into the fast boot screen...damn virtual machine!

My wife should be bringing home her win7 corp laptop tonight, so I will be asking nicely if I can do it on there...

I got so excited when it started the process, actually thinking I could do it through a virtual machine!!

oh well, I guess I will try later
[HTC EVO 3D] gthing:
Hooray - another unnecessary Mac vs. PC debate!

We get it - your operating system of choice is, like, totally the best. Now how about looking into rooting support for everyone instead of arguing about it.
