[EVO 4G General] dburna74:
Need help with evo!!

Hey guys,

Im new here so nice to meet everyone..

Ok I just got a HTC EVO 4G brand new offline from a auction. Its the one that has the 3D cam on it.. Anyway Ive been trying to Unlock Bootloader and root my phone but i keep getting dead ends..

For example.. I tried going to Unrevoked.com and i download and plug the phone in it reads it a sec then says something about "Shooter"Not supported at this time..

So i tried revolutionary, Well they dont have the version of the Hbootloader it says i have on my phone from when i take out the battery then hold vol down and power.. I dont know if it matters but its with Virgin Mobil..

Here is the info it has inside the phone..

Says Android version 4.0.3

Htc sense version 3.6 and software number 2.95.652.5 71ORD

I dont know if any of that helps.

Also When i press Vol down then Power the info in there says

***Locked***

SHOOTER XC

HBOOT-1.58.0000

eMMC-BOOT

May 17th 2012..

Now i have no idea what the Above means.. Im gonna go try the HTC site to try and Unlock it. And give Unrevoked another shot.. But if you guys can please Tell me what the issue is and how i can get the S-OFF and root my phone, or send me to a Link that will work id be greatfull.

Update: Just tried Unrevoked again. Its words are "Shooter device is not supported at this time" then under it says " ClockwordModrecovery"

So Please help me out.. Ive watched youtube vids and It just doesnt seem to go like the Vids do.. And Im not sure i Understand How to get my Computers CMD prompt to work the commands on my phone? How do i go about making that happen? I download SDK one time and when i went to extract the whole file it kept haveing issues and wouldnt not let it work..

Im on WIN 7 btw.. Thanks in Advance guys and if you need anymore info just let me know..

Ok another Update so I went to the HTC DEV site to try and UNLOCK MY bootloader, And when i download the zip file for windows to bring up the command prmt, It sAYS WHEN i try to extract it " files are having issues encrypting" Skip or keep going.. So i kept going.. So then it throws up the CMD window with a FASTBOOT.EXE SYSTEM ERROR "THE PROGRAM CANT START BECAUSE ADLWINAPI.DLL IS MISSING FROM YOUR COMPUTER. TRY REINSTALLING... WHICH I HAVE SEVERAL TIMES...

Also where it tells me to Hold down the VOL BUTTON then power, Then go to fast boot, plug un usb, then press on bootloader, it runs down a screen and says No image about 6 times running down.It does show my USB FAST BOOT CONNECTED but just doesnt let me into the phone..

WTF??
