It is checked, I just noticed that there is a update for .net 4.0 in my windows update, right after I installed with the link you provided. Maybe that will fix it?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
Nah that shouldn't have anything to do with it. As long as the program opens, your .NET version is fine. Possibly try a different USB port?

Fantastic root and unlock program, very easy to use once you have the drivers installed correctly. Make sure you go through the process of wipeing your google wallet beforehand!

Also, TWRP has been updated to v2.1.8, in the how-to video it has the v2.1.7 previous version, if the new build has the latest version then disregard this :P

Seeking Answers To Reverse Incomplete Root Attempt

I ran the program 3 times, fortunately i haven't bricked it yet, but when i re-ran it it shows my phone is unlocked but i haven't acheieved root. What are the steps to relocking the regawMOD until an updated has been released. It was my fault not to trend the entire thread before attempting a root that was not designed for my update. Any thoughts and help would be greatly appreciated.:cowboy:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
Ok, just to clarify, this rooter will NOT ever brick your phone. The state that rc51rider's phone is in is not even close to a brick.

rc51rider:

to fix your phone, you'll need to execute these adb commands in order while it's booted into Android (even though the lockscreen isn't there):

adb shell rm /data/local.prop
adb shell rm /data/local/tmp
adb shell mv /data/local/tmp.bak /data/local/tmp
adb reboot
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RamesisX:
What steps are necessary to complete the rooting process I am in Regaw, i really messed and didn't read the entire post before i attempted my root. I can i complete the root since I am unlocked, but not rooted. I have attempted install busybox, supersu and rootchecker all say that I haven't achieved root yet, any thoughts? I also understand that you are working on a fix, just wanted to know if there is something i could do in the interim which you come up with a fix? Thanks for your work
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
I'm actually almost done coding it right now, and I'll upload it shortly after that. :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RamesisX:
I appreciate your work very much just dropped a donations for your efforts. Man I can't wait there are some smooth rooms i want to test. Thanks again

R Floyd aka RamesisX
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rc51rider:
I opened up ADB shell typed adb shell and everything came back. lol

I can't thank you enough. You sir are an asset to the community thanks again for all your help.

One last question. Can I reload the stock RUU and bring it back to stock?

I'm kinda afraid of this phone now.lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
Awesome you got it back. Running the RUU would put the bootloader to *** RELOCKED *** not locked, but other than that, it would be stock, yes. If you do run the S-OFF tool, then used my S-ON guide, it would be back to completely stock again.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] {ParanoiA}:
No disrespect to anyone, but people have to STOP using random commands and random utilities on their phones as soon as something goes wrong. The most important thing you can do is IMMEDIATELY STOP, then come to the thread or Q & A and post your issue. There are many people here that have no problem helping someone out. Don't panic and make your situation worse. That is all.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RamesisX:
Point taken ParanoiA - I was following some suggestions offered by other senior members thinking that since i was unlocked i might be rooted. After troubleshooting my issue per their suggestion i determined i wasn't so now i wait for solution from the creator of the project. I will heed your advice if in encounter any issues. But for those of us new sometimes PANIC is all we have :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
Ok guys (and ladies ;) ), I updated the OP with version 2.0 of the rooter. This will handle the 1.22.651.3 OTA build. I have not tested it yet personally, but all the logic is there, and it should work fine. If there are any issues, post here and I'll fix them asap. I'm around for a few more hours today.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] le0ch:

I just received a replacement phone from sprint and it came with 1.22.651.3. Ive tried your updated process and it has turn up an error 5 times now. (Error retrieving Unlock_code.bin)

It could be that the problem is with HTCdev.com

Just want to let you know. You said you have not tested it on the latest OTA.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
Not sure why that's happening, I'll look into it. Probably something w/ HTCDev

EDIT:

Not a problem w/ HTCdev, the email is receiving the emails just fine, there's an error getting the attachment. I'll work on that, don't know why it broke though, I didn't touch any of that for the update
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
Haha, whoops. Found the problem. I'll update the OP in a sec once I compile and upload

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
Make sure internal storage is checked. Possibly go into the Mount menu from the main menu and make sure "Mount internal sdcard" is checked at the bottom
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Hillfire:
I have no problem getting the /sdcard directory list, but that file is not available.

---------- Post added at 09:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:50 PM ----------

The log says "DONE" on the push step. Would you mind hosting the zip somewhere so I can continue?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
While the rooter is running, navigate to the directory

%temp%\RegawMOD\Evo Rooter

and you should see RegawMOD_Rooter.zip
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RamesisX:
Man ole man i have looked for the file nothing showing, i looked at mount menu, i do see that the cahce is checked for unmount and the sdcard has the unmount checked, should i uncheck the unmount sd card selection?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Hillfire:
I do not see in any tmp directories in /sdcard. Pretty standard list except for TWRP and smvvm, those do not look familiar to me.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
Ah, sorry, I meant on your windows computer find that directory. It'll exist while the rooter is running
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RamesisX:
Since i don't see the files listed nor do i see tmp and my card is mounted what do i do now? do i reboot and restart?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Hillfire:
Yeah, took me a few to realize that as well. The file is there so I'm pushing it now.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RamesisX:
Well i wish i was so lucky

so i get this right, yes i am slow, trying my best, i need to run the %temp%\RegawMOD\Evo Rooter from my pc.

whil in the install mode?

---------- Post added at 07:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:33 PM ----------

I've tryed to extract it to run and i am having no luck. I might need to reboot

am in trouble if i do that or can i simply reboot from the TWRP?

by restoring?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Hillfire:
Windows Key-R (run prompt) then paste that path. It will open the directory and will contain the zip if the rooter exe is still running.

In TWRP, go to the main page, Mount then Mount USB. Copy the zip, unmount and run it. That should take care of the rest.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] engelsione:
So this new method is not as easy as before? So what are the step by step instructions? We are running a a file that "is not there" ??

does not really matter, I am flashing a different ROM anyway.

Please help, I hae made one donation today and would gladly make another, it has been a long day and i am 50+ just trying figure out this simple proces which turns out not to be so simple Please Help or Let me Know If I can reboot and live to fight another day.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] toenail_flicker:
Just went thru the same thing, so maybe I can help.

1. Windows Key-R (run prompt) then paste that path " %temp%\RegawMOD\Evo Rooter " (without quotes). It will open the directory and will contain the zip if the rooter exe is still running.

2.In TWRP, go to the main page, Mount, then Mount USB. Copy the zip, then unmount and go back to install to run it. It will be at the bottom of the list. Follow the directions and you should be good.

rooted!! whoo hoo!! Thanks so much for updating this auto-rooter!

Question... I had the EVO 4G and had it rooted... to get to hboot / recovery, I had a custom rom that gave me the option to boot to recovery. Or when the phone was off, I held down the vol down button and the power button and it would boot up into hboot... I tried this with my EVO LTE, and it just boots up normally. What am I doing wrong? Is there a different method to this phone? I can use Tit Backup to get to TWRP, but thats all I've found that works so far.

Error with Windows App

I'm getting the attached error when I run on Win7 Pro x64.. I confirmed I have .NET 4 installed and the HTC drivers.. The exception comes up after the first reboot into bootloader that the tool attempts. My phone is stuck in Fastboot and a few scary minutes after I unplug from the USB cable, I regain control and can reboot..

What am I doing wrong?

I finally used This Method to root with the latest OTA, and it worked great. Won't give you S-Off though just root.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] motcher41:
Back with the issue when trying to use this with new hboot and it would unlock but not root I used this.

I downloaded the twrp recovery.img from their website.

I fastboot flashed the recovery.img to the phone and rebooted straight into recovery and flash the rooted stock from there.

Its a few extra steps but it works if this gets you the dev unlock.

---------- Post added at 10:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:36 AM ----------

You can let go of the power after a few counted seconds and keep holding vol down.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
Guys, I can confirm it IS pushing the RegawMOD_Rooter.zip to the phone. After you hit Install on the TWRP main menu, choose "(Up A Level)" from the file list, then choose "sdcard" from the list. RegawMOD_Rooter.zip should be in that new file list. Please can anyone else confirm?

At that point your in the stock recovery. Seems twrp is not installing. I dont know I dont have a phone at the moment. Its in a fedex box at home. come one 1.12 hboot. fingers crossed.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BarronTG:
I tried this for a solid 60 seconds. Right after pressing both, the 3 buttons on the bottom blink for about 5 secs and then quit... nothing happens, until I let go of all buttons... then it boots up normally again.

I tried this again and let go of the power button after about 10 secs, and even with the vol down button pressed, it still immediately boots up normally.

no one else experiencing this issue?? how do I fix?! thanks everyone

I am just looking to get basic root access for wifi tether and titanium backup. I don't want to do HTC unlock or S-Off... I used the zedo one-click before for this process... Is it possible to interrupt or stop this tool during the process to avoid the HTC unlock portion and just get basic root?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
If your build number is 1.13.651.1 then you can use zedomax's old method, yes. But if you have 1.22.651.3, there is no local root exploit at the moment, so no, without unlocking there is no way to get root. Also, there is no way to interrupt the unlocking process on the rooter for just local root.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] premo15:
If you have the sdk installed you can plug your phone into your pc and run:

adb reboot recovery

in the command prompt. That will get you into recovery for sure...no buttons required.

Also, do you have Fast Boot enabled in the Power settings menu? If so, try disabling it. That has prevented me from entering recovery via volume down+power before.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] engelsione:
Same here!!! I just want Tether and TiTanium and such. Personally, when I had my old Evo4G I remember me being addicted to flashing Roms, Wiping Cache and Dalvik and flashing roms while driving or late at Night. Plus we all know that after flashing a Rom there is always a tweak or trouble shooting involved .. I already spend enough time on this Forum as it is.. Then , Im sure in less than a month or so we are going to see another OTA, this one with Jelly Bean, So I am undecided to re root now or wait after the JB OTA.

Seems to be working, again. Sprint had issues yesterday, I guess.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] premo15:
If you're already S-OFF, there's really no need to unlock the bootloader through HTC dev. You should be able to do everything...as long as you still have a custom recovery. If not, it's easy enough to flash one through the bootloader. But this method does that for you, along with giving root so if you'd prefer to just use it, then it should work just fine for you.

It will open the directory fine the regawmod rooter is located and copy the zip file then mount your phone from the twrp progarm once your files open drag and drop the regaw into your phone's sd card. unmount click install and search for the zip it should be there. You might also check the ext-sd to locate the zip file, once you locate the regawrooter click and let her rip.

Hope it works
