If you want to be on the latest stock ICS update but with some extras and colorful flavor, try the Cool ICS ROM, which comes with the stock Android 4.0.3, Sense 3.6, Ext4 tweaks, GPU UI rendering/Sony Bravia Engine, and a whole lot more that’s going to put a smile on your face.
For GSM Evo 3D, make you sure upgrade your firmware first.

Still waiting for a good overclocking kernal for ics on cdma.any possibilities available?
I have s-on rooted device with kingcobra-ics v1.6 .
can I flash the rom from recovery with s-on or should make the device s-off first then install the cool ics rom?
I installed this and I was stuck on the HTC screen for more then 5 min so I am trying dr3p and its fine any ideas please
What Hboot do you have? and are you s-off?
It said hboot 1.50 n s-on
i have the same problem as you and i have no idea what to do because now i cant acces anything on my phone
I have rooted/s-off evo 3d and cannot get hotspot/wifi tethering to work. Hotspot gives me Data call error. Any ideas?
Go into wifi tether app settings and make sure your Device-Profile is set to “Generic ICS”. Then make sure you have Routing Fix and Mss Clamping checked on.
use “WiFi Tether” and just call sprint saying you cant make calls and they fix it for you, just make sure you don’t tell about rooting your phone and you’ll be fine, they take care of it, just give them the error message and they will get your phone up and running and your WiFi Tether will work. let me know if this fix it, i had the same issue and is solved just thought i would pass it on
can you change boot animations with this rom…..if not whats a good 3d rom to use that you can change boot animations.
I have a rooted EVO 3d cdma hboot 1.58 running meanrom 2.4 and it supports custom boot animation.
I just installed without wiping and my wifi doesn’t work at all. Not the tethering, but my home network. Can’t live without that. Any thoughts? Would it help to wipe all data from recovery?
I used 4ext and have s-on.
try flashing boot.img with fastboot.
I can’t mount my phone to my computer. Or at least it doesn’t show that I can get in there. And would I use the boot.img that’s in the ZIP file? (Im new). I also flashed the CoolZ EvoC after flashing the Rom. Not even sure what it does or did. Can you not flash the IMG file through the 4ext thing? Does it have to be from the CMD way?
Seems I can use the CMD thing, but using a tut on youtube, using my COOL boot.img (4meg) or even his 16 meg file the comand prompt gives me a “Failed (status read fail (to many links).
I have fastboot checked and USB Debugging checked.
Still like to know why I can’t get to mount the drive as well..
I tried the Flash GUI apk and choose the ROM file to install the kernal, but it shuts down everytime while indexing the Zip file. UUUHHHHGGG !!
Damn thing reboots or just shuts down fairly frequently today.
Would it be a good idea to just unroot if possible and get stock everything back? Might not bring my WiFi back though.
Now im in a total constant boot loop, and flashing either of the two roms I have don’t work, they both come up and then reboot.
Any Help?
Do you have S-off?
No, S-On. I don’t understand why nothing works any longer. None of the Rom new or old will work, just constand boot loops. I’ve cleared everything I know of and installed fresh. Looking into locking the bootloader, and running the RUU file and hopefully ending the misery. That is if I can do that correctly. đ
Are you just getting the htc screen and then reboot a few seconds later?
Yes. Sometimes it may get to the unlock, but then reboots, but normally the white htc screen. I tired relocking the bootloader and just flashing the stock RUU. But still nothing. Says I’m on 1.58 now. And seem to be doin the correct RUU.
I recommend getting S-OFF most ICS ROMs work well after that, I had that same trouble where it would bootloop on every ICS until i got s-off.
ok I am S-off, tried Hboot jb 1.58, Rev 1.40, and stock 1.58. All give stuck on HTC “quietly brillant” or bootloop. all partitions formatted several times, smart flash enabled…etc, etc. and no luck booting this CoolICS ROM.
is it possible to use the kernal from the gsm to the cdma?
no please do not!
is necessary to upgrade firmware? and how do i know that i’m up to date on firmware?
I love the rom but there is no library for the text prediction. Texting is awful. I recall seeing a text file for the library wih a few words in it but I can’t seem to find it anymore. Does anyone know the location and if anyone has a list of at least basic words so that my phone at least knows how to spell “the” it would be very helpful.
find a separate keyboard app in play store (like SwiftKey 3)
So I was able to get S-off, which took about 10 hours! And then able to get the Cool ICS ROM on. Everything seems like it’s working well except one thing so far. Might sound trivial, but when the phone boots up and I’m looking at the Home panel at the bottom it only says “All apps”. It doesn’t say “Phone” or anything else. Can anyone help with this?
Meaning on the navigation bar.
answering my own question again, figured out that you can grab any app short cut and drop it on there. Is there a “manual” of sorts to this ROM or this version of ICS?
Heey Max!
Your doing a great job with all the video’s man! Thanks.
I’m kinda new with rooting. I did install the official ICS update from HTC a few weeks ago.
but i just want to test things out and install custom roms etc.
What do i need to do to install the Cool ICS rom or such? Do i need to downgrade or whatsoever ?
I have unlocked my HTC evo 3D GSM using the HTCdev method and installed clockworkrecovery and installed newest version of superuser.
Software :
android-version: 4.0.3 – Sense : 3.6 – Softwarenummer: 3.28.401.1 – hboot: 1.53.0007
I hope you can help me man!
Laurens
Peace from the Netherlands
i recommend getting soff before using custom roms to avoid trouble.
Allrighty man! I did install 4ext recovery yesterday. You sad in that video that it isn’t really necessary to get s-off on HTC Evo 3D GSM. so i didn’t do the S-off thing. But anyway i will try. Whats the best method for me now? Cause i don’t have revolutionary or whatsover..
I will get S-off then. But whats the best method? Cause i installed 4ext recovery. And i see your methods with downgrading hboot and use revolutionary.. Whats the best thing i can do to get S-off on HTC Evo 3D GSM?
Hope ya can help me! Peace

Allrighty, What i don’t understand. I did installed 4ext. and you sad you can install roms without getting S-off. But what kinda (stable) roms can i install with S-on?
Anyway gonna try it man. fingers crossed. Thanks
try Gingerbread ROMs.
I’m on official ICS so never go back to gingbread roms. Anyway gonna try the shizzle out tomorrow and hopefully without any problem downgrading my hboot.
Shame there isn’t a easier way?. Cause i have full root and ICS. just want to get S-off.
Anyway Thanks!

do i need to get s-off on sprint cdma to install Cool ICS ROM for Sprint CDMA HTC Evo 3D (I have stock ICS updated and phone is not rooted
You might be okay if you are already on ICS but not exactly sure. Try backing up your rom before installing then you can always restore back if it doesn’t work.
could not activate Wi-fi Can’t search. Any idea why?
Max dude,,
I am currently running HBOOT 1.40 s-off CDMA, will I be able to run this COOL ICS rom ? Should I upgrade to HBOOT 1.58, and how will this effect my future flashs, will I run into programs flashing future JB roms ?
Also will I be able to get s-off at HBOOT 1.58 ?
Thanks dude
stay on hBOOT 1.40, that’s the best, you can install anything on that.
Hey
after answering those question, how do i even upgrade to HBOOT 1.58 and keep my s-off ?
Max,
I tried installing the Cool ICS ROM using TWRP and now can’t get past the HTC white screen. I can still boot into bootloader and TWRP. How do I fix?
Thanks,
Steve
Max,
I found a backup and was able to restore phone. Do I need S-OFF to install Cool ICS using TWRP and DumbLock?
Thanks,
Steve
I highly recommend S-off yes for custom ICS roms.
Max,
I got it all working after doing S-OFF. I thought I bricked the phone for awhile!
Steve
k cool!
hi i am stuck on bootloop after tryin to install an overclock thing from this site could someone please tell me how i can get off this please
try re-installing a new ROM over it, you might have followed one of the older guides which is only for gingerbread.
anyone help me out
hello i had unlocked it but now its locked again and its just going straight into the boot menu nothing happening after that just goes into boot menu is there anyway i can fix this?
Installed this Rom smoothly and it seems to be working great except I have nothing on the bottom bar all I have is *all apps* and nothing to the left or right. I go to change the scene and the scenes shows a full bar with all the icons on it ie. Phone. No matter what I choose I lose everything but all apps*. If I go into *people* I can chose a contact and call it. I get all the phone functions until I exit. I also can’t get any shortcuts to show on the locked screen. I’ve tried wiping and installing. I’m running hboot .1.4 s-off. I installed the Rom with cwm. Anyone have any ideas? Is it a setting that I’m missing. I went through everything I could think of.
Max,
Installed the Cool ICS ROM and everything seems to work except WiFi Tether now fails. It says it can’t initialize the driver. Any ideas?
Steve
Hi, I have fully rooted my evo3d I have Hboot 1.58 and unable to s-off to install the ICS rom, it continues to bootloop, I tried searching online for assistance with s-off but unable to resolve this. I tried the revolutionary but it doesnt support my hboot, will I just have to wait for a update?
max
i installed Cool ICS wifi didnt work, so I updated firmware and now my (gsm) evo 3d wont boot pass bootloader, is this bootloop? tried dumlock, reflash with mean rom and other roms, lock and flash RUU, change cid for downgrade Hboot but it isnt booting pass bootloader, my phone is unlock HTCdev method, S-on, Hboot 1.53.007, radio 11.25.3504.06_M, before rooting I was on latest ICS, been trying to make this work for 2 days now, been on xda dev but nothing, please advise what should I do… thanks
try getting s-off. S-on causes a ton of headaches for flashing ICS ROMs.
Thank for all the info that you’ve posted
ok, here’s an easy one for you. I’m a noob and don’t know how to actually wipe & install this rom. I have successfully completed every step of this xda guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1889438
now i need a walk through for a clean rom install, any suggestions?
Does Stereoscopic 3D work with this rom? I looked through everywhere and there no comments or sites on the topic.
Also how smooth/fast is this compared to the official ICS ROM provided officially by HTC?
i installed this rom v12a and my wifi just says error, how can i fix this. when i used a root wifi tether app it says wifi driver failed and wifi firmware failed. i used revolutionary clock work mod to flash it, hboot says i have s-on.
I tried to flash this rom twice now. cleared cache and wiped partition.
The first time I did it from recovery and install from zip file…It installed…said to reboot..I rebooted got the the HTC screen and stopped, wouldn’t load any further (I let it sit for 30 minutes and it didn’t load). I tried flashing with FLASH IMAGE GUI, and I got an error message, (Selected Zip File /sdcard/download/Cool-ICS-V12-EvoG.Zip is missing the required file: System/lib/modules/sequans_sdio.ko)….This rom is Corrupted.
try redownloading the ROM.
Hey guys just wanna share my tricks on getting roms installed with unlocked bootloader and s-on
SIMPLY DO THIS WHEN YOU DOWNLOAD THE ZIP FILE OF THE ROM
EXTRAC THE ROM ZIP FILE IN A NEW FOLDER THEN DRAG THE BOOT.IMG TO THE ADB FOLDER OR SD FOLDER ETC.
THEN POWER OFF UR EVO 3D PUT IT IN ON BOOTLOADER PLUG IT AND SELECT FASTBOOT
OPEN CMD DO A ADB COMMAND FOR EXAMPLE MINE IS:
C:\rootevo3d>fastboot flash boot boot.img
ONCE YOIU FLASH THAT BOOT IMG THEN GO TO RECOVERY MOUNT USB STORAGE AND DRAG
THE ZIP ROM FILE TO THE PHONE UNMOUNT USB STORAGE AND UNMOUNT ANY OTHER OPTIONS
IF THEY ARE MOUNTED. THEN SELECT TO FLASH THE ROM ZIP FILE AS YOU NORMALLY DO
AND IT SHOUOLD NOT GIVE YOU HANG LOOPS ON THE HTC SCREEN NONE OF THAT PROVEN TO WORK ….
REMEMBER THIS METHOD IS FOR HTBOOT 1.50 UP IT WORKS LI8KE A CHARGE YOUI NEED TO FIRST FLASH THE BOOT.IMG IN THE ZI8P FILE ITSELFT THEN DRAG THE ZIP ROM FILE AND FLASH IT AND IT WORKS ….
HBOOT 1.50 with S-ON
Installed this ROM using Dumlock method and it installed, but would not boot. So, I installed it using flashbot and everything works perfectly! I needed this stock-like ROM because I use 4G and the 3D camera is still fun to me. Great ROM!!
Oops, by ‘flashbot’ I meant ‘fastboot’.
đ i flashed this rom and now my phone will not boot it is stuck on the htc boot screen đ HELP
U NEED TO DO A WIPE DATA REST WIPR CACHE AND FLASH THE BOOT.IMG VIA FASTBOOT ADB COMMANDS
YOU NEED TO.FLASH THE BOOT.IMG FIRST VIA FASTBOOT THEN.FLASH THE ZIPPED ROM VIA RECOVERY SO EXTRACT THE RAR FILE AND DRAG THE BOOT.IMG OUT OF IT THEN.FLASH IT
i dont kno how to ….FLASH THE BOOT.IMG VIA FASTBOOT ADB COMMANDS…. and does will it work on ClockworkMod Touch Recovery
