I still can't find it. I downloaded everything that the OP stated , the htc driver, Net 4, and the regaw mod evo 4g rooter. Am I missing something, when I get top twrp it says find the zip and I still cannot find it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
Glad ya got it. I've been reading the last 4 pages to see if anyone answered you before I chimed in. Lol

I had to buy a new Evo last night. Still had the rooter on PC from last Evo. First Evo was one click and done. This time, ran into a few hiccups. Had to manually reboot at one point, and had to rerun once or twice. But went fine. Oh, and getting the token failed a few times (HTCs fault). Goes to show how great this is written, dan accounts for many variables.

Was lucky enough to get a 1.13 Evo. Actually, it tried to push and update as soon as powered on, but stopped cuz batt was only 9% (sigh of relief, thank god). And my cam actually takes good pics on this one.

Anyhow, great work dan. Thanks for all you share.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] doitwright:
Just like gmarkiek I too cannot locate the Regaw_Mod rooter.zip to flash. The TWRP folder is at the bottom of the list. I tried the top file "(Up A level)" and it took me to another list of files including "boot", "cache" "data" and "root" (located near the bottom of the list) but no Regaw_Mod. I tried clicking on "use external Card" and it showed the original list with the TWRP at the bottom but no Regaw_Mod. I had to remove HTC Sync just to get this far where previous attemps stopped after the 2nd reboot. Any ideas?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
It's called RegawMOD_Rooter.zip just to clarify, I'm seeing a whole bunch of different versions.

Also, finding it in %TEMP% on your computer is a hack and workaround until I fix this bug that makes it not push to the device. I'll be updating it soon, if you don't know what's going on here, just wait until I come back out with an update, don't dig around flashing something that may not be the right thing.

I'm already unlocked and using twrp with s-on. Can I run this again to restore my phone to stock and wipe out everything I've done if I've already flashed roms, mods, etc.?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PillowMetal:
If you want a foolproof way of getting to the bootloader from the phone, there is a method I use that I haven't seen mentioned before. It is faster too than other methods I have tried.

1) Press and hold the power button ONLY. This will eventually pop up the message that your phone is going to shut down in 3, 2, 1... (this is actually a simulated battery pull)

2) Once the screen goes black, let go of power

3) Press power and volume down, and in about 2-3 seconds the bootloader will appear.

---------- Post added at 05:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:04 AM ----------

Since you are S-OFF, what you probably want to do is...

1) Flash LazyPanda hboot 1.12.2222 from the bootloader

2) Flash TWRP 2.2.1 from the bootloader

3) Flash SuperSU 0.94 from recovery

I did exactly what you did, and this is how I got back to root from the RUU. If you want to do this I can give you the exact links.

P.S. I also hand executed the commands from zedomax's batch file in adb shell to push and install busybox to the the phone, but I am planning to create a flashable zip with an updater-script to do that as well, since everyone seems to leave that step out and no one has created an auitomated method yet that I have found.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BarronTG:
Gotcha. I'm learning here... with my orig EVO, I thought unlocked was the same thing as s-off (maybe it wasnt)... with this EVO LTE, its 2 different things. With it now unlocked, and I can now flash roms, what is the advantage of going the extra step to get it to s-off?

Another question, but doesnt pertain to this thread, do you still use A2SD to save all apps to the sd so they are still there when you flash new roms? Or is there a different method to this new phone?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] premo15:
Yeah, it's a little different with the LTE, mainly because it's still relatively early I think. With unrevoked on the OG you got unlocked, rooted and S-OFF in one automated process so there wasn't much of a distinction between them for a lot of people (including myself). I think we will see that with the LTE as well, just takes time for the OTAs to slow down and the devs to crack them. Right now, depending on which hboot version you have and what you want to do, you may not really need S-OFF...if you're on 1.15 then you can basically only flash recovery, ROMs and some kernels (but it requires flashing an entire boot image) with S-ON. 1.12 will let you flash everything but firmware with S-ON. But if you just want to flash ROMs, either version with S-ON should work.

I've never used A2SD before so I'm not sure exactly what the capabilities are. I usually just use Titanium Backup for my apps and then restore on the new ROM.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] motcher41:
Except you can't flash a kernel/boot.img in recovery if S-ON 1.15 HBOOT. Well if u use dumlock its suppose to I believe. To change kernels S-ON 1.15 HBOOT it has to be done in fastboot as a whole boot.img.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ananth001:
thank you......please share the links that you mentioned
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] arozer:
Everything else works fine expect for the last step where it says "In TWRP, Find and Install "RegawMOD_Rotter.zip". There is no Rooter.zip.

However, I am able to make a back up on my current (stock) Rom successfully.

But Titanium still doesn't notice my device as being rooted.

What gives?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
That zip (RegawMOD_Rooter.zip) is what gives you root.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Mighty Mike:
So could we get just that zip and store it on our sd boot into twrp and install it? Please post here if you would be so kind.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] motcher41:
You know once you're in twrp if you've already downloaded a rom whether it's a stock deodexed or whatever rom u like you can simply flash it n you will have rooted it

I unlocked it manually through HTC Dev site and flashed CleanROM on Thursday. Also did it after the last ota since su didn't work through the tools. I did it exactly like this. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1830098 I also did it over tethering from full stock and took about 10-15 min and that's with 33kbps internet speed.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] corcgaigh:
My understanding is that this is correct. If you have twrp you should be able to flash a rooted ROM and therefore gain root

Sent using my LTEVO
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cloak.n.dagger:
I just ran though this process and I'm seeing the same thing. I get to the TWRP recovery then click Install and there is no .zip file there for the root process. Not sure what's broken here, but the root zip file is not getting pushed to my phone (internal memory or SD card). Please advise.

I have rebooted back into the OS and the Super User app is not installed. I have s-off but have had s-off for a while (since pre OTA update via lazy panda). Gave up root back then to try to recover NFC/Google Wallet by running RUU. Got back to stock but still had s-off! Took the OTA and gave up root hopring OTA would fix multitasking issue, but it didn't. Now, here I am. Ran the exe for this root methos and all looked well until I got to TWRP and now have no zip to flash. Is there a way to get this zip manually? I can just mount the SD card and transfer the file and flash it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] premo15:
Second...

As long as the ROM has the proper su binaries and apk, you should have root access in it. The root that happens in regawMOD is to gain local root in the stock OS though, which is needed for titanium backup if you wanted to carry you're app data over to the new ROM (or if you just want to be rooted and stick with stock).

Sent from my EVO LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cloak.n.dagger:
The problem is that the zip file needed to root the phone is not getting pushed to the phone via the regawMOD executable (at lest for me and one other person here). Not sure why it's not getting pushed, but the on screen display of the app running on the PC side indicates that the root zip file was pushed successfully. However, once in TWRP the zip file is no where to be found.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] motcher41:
Its an awesome tool and once that gets figured out that's great until then I posted a manual walkthrough which is quick in general thread to help those dev unlock and flash a rooted ROM or stock rooted

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cloak.n.dagger:
I'm checking your thread now, but don't see how this gets me to root. I have s-off and TWRP thanks to this tool, but I'm missing the piece that get me root access. How does your process get my device rooted?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] motcher41:
This tool doesn't give s-off. It dev unlocks. Since u have tarp just flash any rom to get root. Or one if the full stock ROMs out there. At the bottom of that thread with the walkthrough there is two links to threads with rooted full stock ROMs or pick any other made for this device

Go back and read pages 82-84. Your answer is in there if you must have root now via this method. If you can wait, he's updating it tomorrow.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] arozer:
Yes, I can confirm this. I got impatient waiting for an answer, so I downloaded a Rom ( liquid) and flashed it thru TWRP, and it flashed fine.

The ONLY bad part was that I had to redownload all the apps again since I couldn't use Titanium Backup to back up my apps.

---------- Post added at 08:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:03 AM ----------

I appreciate that, however in the mean time if you can upload the file in the OP that would be great.

At least that way we can do it manually if need be.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KaoMinerva:
i need some help. the rooter froze at recovery, phone shut down, and now it wont reboot at all. I also cant get into the bootloader. I was on the 1.15 update. Any help is appreciated, dont wanna go through Sprint.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] arozer:
^did it freeze at where it says "rebooting to recovery",

If so same happened to me and I just unplugged it and.pressed power until it rebooted and then once the phone came back on, I did it again and it worked the second time.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KaoMinerva:
how do you push a rom boot.img to the phone. I pulled a noob move flashing viper without the kernel first. I thought lte could do this on hboot 1.15

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PillowMetal:
I attached the exact files you need, their source locations if you care to investigate, and their MD5 checksums if you want to verify the files before flashing them.

For the first two files, make sure you rename them to "PJ75IMG.zip" (without the quotes) and place them on your external SD card (not the internal SD card) and reboot into the bootloader (hboot); they will load automatically and prompt you to install/flash.

The last file you can have on either your internal or external SDCard (no need to rename), and then "install from zip" inside of TWRP recovery. Let me know if you have any problems.

2) TWRP 2.2.1 - MD5: 63e4fe1dadba0f107105524f88b693a7 - http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/98

3) SuperSU 0.94 - MD5: fef8f6fc575a85e2d24dfd70d7b13700 - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PillowMetal:
If you are S-ON with hboot 1.15, you can still flash a kernal (boot.img file). You just have to do it from your computer via fastboot. The phone has to be sitting in the bootloader and should read "fastboot usb". Then the commands are:

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot

The last line is just to reboot the phone to /system if you are done in the bootloader.

If you don't quite have your computer set up with Android SDK tools, etc., you can go to this link from @motcher41 and he has the 2 DLLs and 2 executables that are needed at a minimum and instructions how to flash the kernel - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1794867

EDIT: Sorry, just saw that it was already answered.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] arozer:
I was confused about that too.

My guess is that an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery is enough.

Bc root DOES only mean access to specific areas. Nothing more.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xfred:
Backup?

I guess herein lies my conundrum....hopefully someone can help me.

I have never rooted previous to .3.

I do not have root access.

Titanium backup will not work without root access

What i'm trying to acomplish: Titanium backup and wifi tether. AFAIK, root access required for both.

So now it appears that I have the choice of remaining locked, or losing all my settings. Is there any way around this?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
If you are on build 1.13.651.1, you can use zedomax's original root method to gain local root, and allow you to use titanium backup, then use this to unlock your bootloader and flash a recovery. If you are on 1.22.651.3, it's been patched.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
Ok I updated the OP with a new build. This pushes the RegawMOD_Rooter.zip to both /sdcard (internal) and /sdcard2 (external if you have one). Should make the zip easier to find. Hopefully this will fix the issue.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xfred:
I'm on 1.13.651.3. I guess that means i'm out of luck, as far as backup goes?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
Hmm are you sure it's 1.13.651.3? I didn't think that build even existed.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xfred:
My mistake...transposed the two. It's .3

1.22.651.3 710RD to be specific
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
Ah, yeah, then you are out of luck for getting root without unlocking and wiping :(
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BigKenW:
Great Work!!!! Installed and working like a charm. Just a heads-up. I too had the missing RegawMOD_Rooter.zip file. I was able to grab the file by browsing to here:

%temp%\RegawMOD\Evo Rooter

I then mounted the phone using TWRP and copied the file over to the SD Card. The file showed in Windows. After unmounting, it didn't show on the SD Card in TWRP. So I played around a little. For whatever reason, when I mounted the drive I had to select MOUNT SYSTEM and MOUNT DATA. I then copied the file over again. After unmounting, the ZIP could be found. I installed, rebooted, and ran Titanium Backup. Root priviledges were requested and provided by SuperSU.

Don't know if that will help anyone that had problems. Just putting it out there.

Thanks All!!!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
Ok, I'll post the god damn zip. Your phone isn't broken. You just don't have root. That's it. You could just have easily downloaded the zip file from ChainFire's SuperSU and flashed it. That's basically what the zip is. Give me a bit to get it up here, I'm busy.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Picasosz:
Sorry Your So Stressed I will download the chainfire SU

The Deal Is there is an issue with your UI it is not pushing the file or it is being Blocked by Something I have Tried 4 times I am not a noob I would Like to help but bottom line the file is not being pushed I assume it should be pushing to the TWRP folder but have checked them all.:good:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regaw_leinad:
I understand that, even though it's not really a problem with my UI, and probably 5 of my last 7 post have been talking about how I'm working on the fix. It pushes successfully to my phone when I test, so I need to debug my entire AndroidLib library that I wrote and it takes time. I'd appreciate not attempting to add any pressure on this, I do this when I have spare time.

And seriously bud, "Sorry you're so stressed"?

Not sure how you were expecting me to respond to this
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] premo15:
Not trying to start a flame war, but you might try showing a little more respect to the developers that make all of this possible for us. Without them, rooting, flashing, modding and everything else we can do would be a fantasy. Most of them have full time jobs and other hobbies besides coding (Dan here is in a band), so they don't always have time to update things as often as they'd like. Yes there are going to be bugs but that's just part of development. If you're not satisfied with something, try seeking out other methods and look into ways you can solve problems yourself instead of spitting on the developer's generosity by making demands of him.
