There appears to be a firmware update for the Design 4G, I've tried and it fails to complete as well.

Frankly, I don't want to anyways, it might break root.

Does anyone know what this update is about? It's not ICS is it?

HTC EVO Design 4G™ - ZergRushed and rooted with SuperTool v3

Interesting to note and I do not see any other post on it. After launching Titanium Backup Pro, I was greeted with the message that my ROM was rooted, but the "su binary has non-optimal access rights, which may cause problems" and offers to fix it. Should I do this or ignore it?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Darnell0216:
There was an update released shortly after the phone came out. If you haven't installed it, you may be getting prompted now. I already installed the update when I got the phone on Christmas Eve and it roots just fine. If there is a newer update, it isn't mentioned on the HTC site as of yet.

The ota update does break root, but you are able to root after. The ota was a security plug for the HTC loggers. I rooted before the update, had to reroot afterwards. I did wait to unlock my bootloader & flash a custom recovery until after my ota showed up.

One or the other. The Design roots fine with ZergRush (#1).

Hey guys, I have an HTC Desire Z Running 2.3.3

I bought it from someone else, I haven't done any rooting/unlocking of the bootloader

I've been reading a little bit about rooting but I still have a lot of questions (and I REALLY want to avoid using adb) so I found this Super Tool and I had a couple of questions

I've read through some of the thread and it seems like the Desire Z cannot achieve permanent root with this tool. However, can I still get temp-root and then downgrade from there and then achieve perma-root?

Sorry for any stupid questions, I'm really new to this

Thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] frigid:
Try that one!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fkereki:
Sorry, but seems it still won't work. I used the provided "gfree" with Super Tool, but

I'm thinking the results in this thread still (unfortunately!) apply...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mr.xombie:
I am having issues with my evo shift. When i try prepping using zerg rush, it says pushing, and then hanging permissions. And then drops back to main menu. as for taco root, it won't even try. i have no idea whats going on. I've tried rebooting my phone, but to no avail.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Johnabis:
does this work on Hboot 1.5 on the evo3d?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rockingondrums:
I've searched this thread for Rezound and all the early posts are people asking if this tool will work on the Rezound and all the later posts are people talking about the unlock_code.bin

I already know I can get the unlock code officially from HTC, so that essentially means THIS tool will not unlock the Rezound bootloader. Am I correct? That's a shame.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] trisch:
If you unlocked the bootloader with HTCDEV site, then why do you want to do it again, and if it works through HTCDEV, this tool will do it too, for some ppl its easier with the tool, so wondering why to blame this cool tool , especially its not only for bootloader unlocking....
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rockingondrums:
Huh? I'm not "blaming" this tool for anything.

I'm just trying to figure something out because there seems to be some info missing.

In fact, I

WANT

to use this tool to unlock my bootloader, so I can avoid using htcdev because the thought of even possibly having a hardware warranty claim denied due to rooting bothers me.

But I searched the thread and can't find anyone saying this tool will work without the HTC unlock bin.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mr.xombie:
So I finally got zerg rush to work, and then performed perm root, which it said worked. i then tried to attempt s-off, which didn't work. any help? please?

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] phsteve:
Can't help you with S-OFF but I'm curious if perm root is confirmed working for you... Have you been able to get Wireless Tether to work? If so, that's awesome. I've been trying to root a Shift for a while.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mr.xombie:
was it really necessary to yell? there are almost 110 pages in this thread. I did read the first 20-30, but i saw no posts about the EVO shift, so i just asked. damn. and i thought this was supposed to be a friendly place.

---------- Post added at 06:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:44 PM ----------

sadly, no. but apparently, this is a simple way to achieve temp root, which should enable rooting using ShiftRR. Unless my info is wrong.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] GuyInDogSuit:
No, sorry, didn't mean it that way. It's been answered many times by several people, though.

Still doesn't look like it works with Evo Shift on 2.3.3

You can easily temp root with Indirect's script which can be found in the shift forums. Still hoping this eventually gets S-Off for the shift.

Hello all,

I recently bought an HTC Sensation (Android 2.3.4 and Sense 3.0)with Orange CH (Switzerland) and yesterday I tried to root it using ACS HTC Super Tool v3. Unfortunalety, it did not work despite all the good feedbacks and all the combinations I tried : ZergRush/Taco Root, HTC Super Tool 2/3, different HTC Drivers, FastBoot On/Off ...

Everything seemed to work fine with ZergRush (Taco Root wasn't launching at all), and I managed to reach the "Rooted" blinking dialog box. However, the phone wasn't responding and after a reboot using the command in the HTC Super Tool, ROM Manager said the phone isn't rooted. Can any of you tell me what I did wrong and/or what I should do ?

Many other users are reporting the same problem with HTC Sensation on french speaking forums such as : HTC Hub.

Phone configuration :

Android 2.3.4

Be sure to have the "Routing Fix" checked in Wifi tether.

If this does not work, be sure to update your wireless card drivers on your PC. Until I did the second step, I was not able to connect to the AP, like you, it would just hangs trying to get an IP.

I have had it checked and unchecked.. but I was just curious if anybody has connected to a ps3 and if so what tether app did you use..on a side note I was freezing apps with tb and I found one that said tethering guard 2.3.4.....should I freeze it?

If anyone would like to post in this thread to help show the admins that this device will have dev support and a decent size user base please feel free. I genuinely feel that the Evo Design/Hero S community could benefit greatly from having a central home for users and developers to share their knowledge and experience.

Edit: Just barely more than a day later and already the request has been approved!
